either. way bleeds world should. draw. a green let's start with the mall be it will be a. nice day says not looking to kick off a cycle school nation in conflict with russia moscow slaps the u.s. with sanctions in retaliation for washington imposing restrictions on russia earlier in the week. washington has to understand that there will be a price for defamation of relations indeed is the u.s. that is entirely responsible for what is happening. a week of unrest in the u.s. state of minnesota where anger over the police killing of dante right shows no sign of easing. also a c.n.n.

director secretly filmed admitting his channel spreads propaganda despite having a slogan claiming to be the most trusted media outlet. and i go americans accused of attacking german democracy she pleads with parliament to grant her more powers to fight the country's worsening pandemic. it is early this sunday morning but it's great to have your company thanks for joining us here. this week marked another low point in us russian relations as both countries on the east sanctions on each other expelled u.s. diplomats from russia and advice the acting american ambassador to return. the latest attack country by divided ministration cannot. it seems that washington does not
1:02 am
want to accept the fact that in the new geo political realities there is no place for unilateral dictatorship and have broken scenarios of containing moscow which the us short sightedly continues to deploy when you risk further degrading russia u.s. relations we knew that this was coming in one form or another it was just a matter of time and on friday russia very demonstrative retaliated against those punitive measures that washington once against moscow earlier this week perhaps the most interesting part is that 8 top level washington officials have been banned from entering russian territory and when i say top level i mean highlight reel you know we're talking the head of the f.b.i. the director of national intelligence the secretary of homeland security to i people who are powerful decision makers in washington also a lot less to susan rice and john bolton historically to politicians who are you know. russian rhetoric alongside the names moscow explained that these individuals
1:03 am
have been chosen precisely because they all responsibility for promoting america's anti russian policy direction i have to say this is a really strong move because usually such bans are done on the low down in the quiet that are not announced publicly so clearly the kremlin here is so frustrated by what's going on that it wants to make a really bold korea statement of not 10 american diplomats have been expelled a number of american organizations suspected of interfering in russia's internal affairs have been told that they need to stop their activity and it was also made clear that if the u.s. continues to behave this way the more can and will be done including reducing the diplomatic mission here to just $300.00 and taking action that would be harmful to u.s. business interests so very loud to various. sensitive announcement leaving the door open for an improvement of relations but at the same time being practical and
1:04 am
preparing for the worst as you see it it comes not long after what's america said they were going to do as regards what was said on thursday well you have to look at the backdrop to this hostile undiplomatic rhetoric coming from the white house of course now the infamous interview joe biden calling president putin the killer on international television and then this final blow out by joe biden signing what can only be called a sanction spree so that package includes a $32.00 russian and an individual sanction for allegedly interference in last year's presidential election stateside a range of financial and technology firms targeted for apparent cyber attacks on federal agencies 10 russian diplomats expelled borrowing money international made more difficult for russia to and why anyone reasonable would look at this and say well this is pretty extensive apparently joe biden claims that this was his take it easy on russia set of sanctions and that ultimately all he really wants is to be
1:05 am
friendly and the pressure dial down united states is not looking to. school is she in conflict with russia we want a stable predictable relationship is the time to deescalate well saying that after announcing a slew of sanctions is mixed messages it's illogical it's very confusing i mean generally punishment and deescalation don't go hand in hand so you can see why the russian side pointed out that the moment there's a huge disconnect between what russia says or rather what washington says and what washington does cool should move to refrain from escalation sound hypocritical in essence to trying to talk to us from a position of strength we have repeatedly warned and proved in practice that sanctions and other pressures are not only futile but will also result in disastrous consequences for the. to decide on such provocations so clearly normalized relations between the u.s. and russia are going to require a serious shift and care but at the moment it does definitely sound that while
1:06 am
small scope course doesn't want it to terrorists and relations and it's tried everything it can to a point that at the moment it feels that that might be the only option left journalist and also daniel is our belief that by the ministration this behaving without restraint it's moves against russia america's behavior is out of control i mean the but the bottom restoration is well spent the last 4 years accusing trump of being soft on russia and now is what it's got into office it is trying to show that it is going to be a confrontational 'd and hostile as a possibly there is no charge that the by the ministration would want level against moscow biden has been absolutely unrestrained he is determined to show that he's a tough guy tougher than than donald trump and so therefore he's being very aggressive with regard to both russia and china and and there are no restraints
1:07 am
that's that that's the amazing thing and the u.s. is just as rampaging around with these charges well unveiling the latest raft of sanctions the u.s. also cited claims made last year of russia offering by auntie's to the taliban to kill american troops in afghanistan the white house admits it has very little to back up those claims but is nevertheless demanding answers from the kremlin. we felt the reports were enough of a cause of concern they assessed with low to moderate confidence as you alluded to that russian intelligence officers sought to encourage taliban attacks against u.s. and coalition personnel in afghanistan so while there's a lot of moderate assessment of these reports we felt it was important for our intelligence community to look into it this information really puts the burden on russia and the russian government to explain their engagement here last year news reported russian intelligence offered taliban linked militants bounties to kill
1:08 am
u.s. troops in afghanistan in 2019 those allegations were never proven the pentagon itself said it could not corroborate the reports didn't stop the media from a bracing the story vladimir putin is offering boaties for the scalps of american soldiers in afghanistan the european intelligence official called this callous shocking and reprehensible overnight president trump dismissed the intelligence denied being briefed on it as new reports emerged saying those payments did in fact lead to the death of americans the russian rejected the allegations of the foreign minister branding them speculations and phobias of the u.s. intelligence community we got the take of former u.s. marine corps intelligence officer scott ritter. the mere fact that you have politicians action on intelligence that has appeared on the front pages of the new york times bill is you right off the bat that it's not intelligence it's been it's clear sized information as opposed to hard intelligence look the united states and
1:09 am
russia are adults they they they they sit at the big table they wear big boy pants and their intelligence services things you can see one another because that information normally we understand this is the reality of the world but the united states right now is very defensive it's dealing with a changing world changing reality and the fact that russia refuses to play the game of being subservient to you know a dominant america and so this is a domestic political problem where intelligence is. a political objective as opposed to doing what it's supposed to do providing insight american decision makers about what ground truth in russia is. it's been a week of angry unrest in the u.s. state of minnesota have followed last sunday so fatal shooting by police of dante right right offices have been resorting to tickets and rubber bullets to disperse protesters. during.
1:10 am
the prince until police climbed on tehran's died as a result of an accidental case ciancia after an officer mistook a gun for a taser stop. it out as pace for protest ended in looting and violent clashes with police. and process were also seen in other cities including chicago dallas and portland where the police union building was set on fire seems reminiscent of those seen in the wake of george floyd's death last year this death sparked take away for
1:11 am
the nationwide protests a year ago to host wayne depraved he served as a board member of the national diversity coalition for donald trump says it's vital to rebuild trust between police and minority communities. tensions are so diode to the left and right the people that are getting hurt or in the middle what's happening right now is not going to stop is going to get worse because the leadership around many places is weak there is a lack of trust on both sides of the aisle. and when i mean both sides i know there's a lack of trust with within the police community about what's going on within the minority community in then there's a lack of trust within the minority community about what the police are doing because of what they see projected on our media every day there has to be a concerted effort from both sides of leadership leadership of people there
1:12 am
everybody can try to sit down and work out proven solutions and. take it all types of suggestions and try to work out something and bring the trust back between law enforcement and the communities. social media twitter has banned the founder of investigative journalist group project veritas for alleged violations of his policies comes after the group published another undercover sting video involving c.n.n. as technical director. a strain of using these apparently even heat like good. people are getting exactly as you say just a picture that you made sure to protect patients. and someone. who was trying to like help like a b.l.m. like you name it like i mean it's individuals it's not a you know. that's like going to the topics about and i'll get you that we can
1:13 am
speak to the fact that this technical director charlie chester he was certainly part of the culture he was speaking as if they were an advocacy group and this is a network that uses the tagline the most trusted name in news does the most trusted name in news you know colluded directly or indirectly with black lives matter that's a question for the american public to ask it seems that the rules that as a society that we all thought were in place are no longer in place there is no more rule book well this is the 3rd undercover skee published by project very tense just this week with more about other revelations is ulty still quarter. the most trusted name in news it's a title c.n.n. has long prided itself on maybe you buy it maybe you don't but what would you think if the network admin did to deliberately spreading propaganda well apparently they did i do you. believe that it was. i don't know that
1:14 am
but again you are creating a story that we didn't know anything about. that's b.s. i think that he is the worst president we have ever seen but what president trump just said was undemocratic and false the president seems to think that dominating black people dominating peaceful protesters is law and order it's not he calls them thugs who's the thug here this guy is should not be president cnn's charlie chester's spilled the beans over a tender date he was enticed into by an undercover project veritas journalist he claimed the channel long had a pre-determined agenda to get trump out of office one that flows from the top down from none other than c.n.n. president jeff zucker himself naturally trying to make joe biden out to be a spring chicken was the other side of the anti trump propaganda calling yeah i mean. we didn't write. this. i don't know he's
1:15 am
shaking or whatever and he brought in like so many medical people so like all tell a story that i think is all speculation you know you're shocked to hear john. mccain. you know by. him and you say here she. hates him is a. young period. that sounds a lot like election meddling something c.n.n. has pointed the finger at russia for time and time again blaming on unverifiable claims from u.s. intelligence and its reputation as evidence the. in last year's elections the network claimed that moscow was trying to hurt joe biden's chances by spreading conspiracy theories about the now u.s. president i'm talking about russia attacking our election russia once again interfered in the race for the white house russia is indeed interfering in the 2020 election with that kind of a double standard it should come as no surprise that people's trust for c.n.n.
1:16 am
is on the decline but we don't think that this is all the personal. makes this lawrence when you're caught red handed hiding the way you do business from your viewers that's one thing but accusing someone else for breaking the very rules you yourself were caught breaking well that's another it's a rinky dink toopid organization what do you want it's c.n.n. that scared defends immunised from any responsibility because nobody takes them seriously and as far as project very jealous and james o'keefe god bless him but how many exposé these must be produced before something's done things done and nothing jeff zucker still there everybody still there but let me explain something their ratings are plummeting who wants to watch c.n.n. if there's no trunk what do you do talk about what a great job biden is knowing what
1:17 am
a great job camelot harris story i don't think so now me we can't believe what we're seeing and our country is in complete collapse with our borders being destroyed and being invaded gaily with a sense of believe a bill distrust with with vaccine an advocacy vaccine malpractise with this anyway and years nothing for them to build up. the world cup brigade is now officially part of the british army where one regiment has been told to use inclusive language of the void causing offense to look at what minefields there is troops will have to navigate after the break.
1:18 am
1:19 am
talk. welcome back you've heard of the work brigade to a new case become a reality soldiers in the british army's royal engineers regiment of been told to mind their language in case it might offend someone. throws a few grenades on the front lawn of the culture war. so the main dangers of being in the military is you can be shot at blown up. or fall victim to non gender neutral language well $22.00 engineer regiment of the british army is doing something about it the language not the horrible bad stuff don't call each other lads soldiers are told to be more inclusive and avoid using words such as mankind and sportsmanship over fears that they could cause offense to regiment sergeant major reportedly told his men. people that they need to try harder to hold regiments v. and s. b. and s.
1:20 am
dance with values and standards do not mix it up with b. and s. he also said that everyone has to remember d. and on that diversity and inclusion and gents men lads other phrases like there are not to be use and this is my favorite he said it should be made sure that people are getting paid the correct compliments we don't always says no. you're. right you know what this story has caused some our rage among friends or gobs like these more with of course but actually there's nothing new about these directions they came out in 2017 released by the british army's joint equality diversity and inclusion unit or jeddah as it's known. who are inclusive most important so some poles from the guidance from the u.k. military's jet i war is inclusive jesting sportsmanship be replaced with fairness or good humor and the word mankind be replaced with humanity whew mankind human
1:21 am
race people as had residual some of those of man in as well were british war heroes to tim collins back in 2017 describe to listeners the ludicrous and dangerous morass into which obsequious and p.c. senior officers have led the british army which means he doesn't like it. but. so we can conclude from this is. 4 years on after about the voice was originally given soldiers are still not quite ready to have their language policed probably because if you're in the army you've got a few other things to worry about let's not forget but the army has been at the forefront of the quality they've been teaching mentor on their own trousers for centuries washed on one side return over. to the book about dropping bombs on middle eastern villages is the absolute definition of inclusive ety they're killing everyone without prejudice. probably a long time for we see scenes like this on the front line.
1:22 am
sort. oh my god did i say that. the german chancellor has been accused of undermining the country's democracy that's after anglo-american pleaded with lawmakers to grant the federal government powers to impose regional curfews and lock downs without consent of local authorities or was heckled during a heated debate in parliament. we're slamming on the brakes nationwide i'm convinced a nationwide imagine system is overdue and urgently needed a lauren measures have a single goal to lead our country ad of this terrible phase of managing infections care she said not a new invention but they are part of the infection protection that is currently in place. may i ask you jay colleagues whatever a personal opinions may be don't you think that we should take them into account in
1:23 am
the way we debating this here ultimately what i'm going to medical wants is changes to the infection protection act that would allow her not just to say this is what should be doing to be able to say this is what is going to come to the way it works here in germany with the federal system is all those things can be decided from the federal government in how they're implemented on the ground particularly when it comes to code 19 restrictions are left up to the interpretation of the governments of the 16 states that make up germany now what angle america wants to do is take some of those powers from the states and have them for herself well as you can imagine not everybody is happy with that outside of the bundestag there was a small but vocal demonstration against what the chancellor is trying to do in the opposition from the alternative to germany partly though as to making the argument that these how is already exist that they don't believe this is a given to the to the federal government and that the chancellor should let the
1:24 am
states decide what's best for the states this effect to introduce infection protection act is an alarm and document of authoritarian thinking never before has a federal government dared to include so many attacks on the basic freedoms of citizens been the rule of law and on democratic principles and so few sentences as in this draft the more we've been here before though with anglo merkel's saying she wanted to implement national 'd measures national lockdowns and things like curfews when it comes to the fight against covert 19 just before. easter we heard the chancellor announce this was going to happen over the easter break only for her to have to make one of the biggest u. turns of her political career when just over 24 hours later she said actually that's not going to happen because technically i don't have the powers to be able to tell you to do that. he says they are going to fast of april as well as the surge of people there should be defined as calm days with extensive contact restriction in scheme and a ban on gatherings from the fast to the 5th of april. it gives women the idea was
1:25 am
a mistake this mistake is my mistake alone a mistake must be called a mistake and above all it must be corrected at the same time of course i know that this whole matter trygaeus more uncertainty i regret that deeply apologize to all citizens this brings us today and the facts of the matter on the ground when it comes to covert 19 is that germany is being gripped particularly hard by this wave the robert cock institute which handles germany's public health affairs is warning that unless something is done that april could well be a record breaking month for germany when it comes to covert 19 infections what angle are merkel is seeking the power to be able to do is that when cases reach a number of 100 new infections per 100000 of a population that an emergency brake can be pulled nationally the thing is is
1:26 am
there's a lot of pushback against this despite that pushback it does seem likely that these changes to the infection protection act will be made by some point next week we expect them to be signed into law by german president frank fault. there my p.d.s. plus $75000.00 on a crime fighting robotic dog armed to the teeth with high tech cameras and microphones the police department has touted did g. dog as a way to keep officers out of harm's way but the robotic retreat doesn't seem to have gone down too well with new yorkers. listen to. the sound. my guess is to stand up to.
1:27 am
oh. never seen i'm like that in my life. oh how hard to be to hold on. i think they're creepy i think it's a waste of money but i think it's ridiculous that i can't spend money on proper officer training and things like officer you know i'm the rehab stuff i mean this summer you know the things that are. somewhat it's going to really do something is not going to be casual to just be a robot even though the robot is expensive it's not a human why they are you getting no money from where's the money coming from how much is it how much is a cost and a weekend training officer and her weekend on center protocol they're having
1:28 am
1:29 am
. we dare to ask. what's needed national will discover that i when we've been able to molest that's l.a. city it was a propagandist you all said it's kind of scene from the regular morgue your home or your car not going to be moving from our previous. bush or psyche would all but us lucifer mistletoe is just that i'm like i don't i'm just nobody it is not my achievement mr davies are 5 you have plans were conceived by the need and carried out by the people themselves if alan would produce or even floor it with the idea of making a film like this they'd probably be branded as crazy. that was the sentiment during the war the soviets were brave heroes resisting nazis that's going to change of
1:30 am
course after the war but once the cold war begins. little people think that hollywood is a free place but only what is strictly defined by only one side of the business and the other side is idealist. how would i define hollywood is they call it a dream manufacturer which i think's true. i think equally it's a problem in the film. so if someone wants to authorize a product in europe let's say a plant protection product dispersant be called dispersal of these companies the applicant has to provide data that allows us as their.
