the ah, this ours headline stories the kremlin rubbish is a new un security council report obtained by the new york times, alleging that russian army instructors in central african republic carried out the atrocities. also, potential death blow to the u. s. case against julian, a son, jones, washington's main witness appears to admit in an interview with iceland, the media that he gave false testimony. attendance are confirmed in miami after the collapse of an apartment block on thursday. more than a 100 people are also missing. it's emerge not engineers, raise the alarm over the safety of the complex 3 years ago. i

around the clock across the world. this is and use our in our pleasure to help you with this. my name's unanimity. the kremlin has blasted alleged abuses by russia in central africa republic. it's centers on a reports by the un security council obtained by the new york times to 1000000 thinking among the russian military advisers could not and did not participate in the killing. so robberies. this is another lie while a pretty strong denial to some pretty serious allegations. the charges have all that russian mercenaries deployed in the central african republic killed civilians . they looted homes even show wash, oppose in a mosque. we're hearing this via the new york times from you and investigators who

penned to report that's already been submitted on already in fact, very intimately discussed by the security council. now these legit abuses atrocities really are said to have taken place in january and february of this year during an operation to drive rebels out of several towns. now what is the proof full of power a bat of photographs and witness testimony? all of that is at the moment on available to us now is was mentioning that the are indeed russians in the c a r y, where the country has been going through tunnel since 960, when it gained independent from france. but really tensions fled in 2017. that's when the rebels gained the ground violence. spite thousands were killed. hundreds of thousands were displaced to the government, turned to russia to help. and it invited instructors was less than $550.00 to come and train the local army. and, you know, she gave its blessing to that mission. it has its own peacekeeping forces in the

country too. so laska says it's train is not involved in any military operations. for security and training purposes, able to provide a pass and protection to see a leadership. so you can see a number of foreign actors in this one country and out very conflicting reports as to what each actor was actually up to the sky. when did these allegations actually come out? when the news broke? what's interesting is that russia's deputy ambassador to the un denounced it as an anti russia political hit job and the fast water. so she referenced me to reference to constant dubious attempts to be spread russians in the central african republic, especially with an american and french media. he used anonymous sources plus the more the general backdrop, most recent evo see and also published an article that had a code of the us and report so again, firing out civilians the finding of home. so also instances of rape and torture,

apparently based quote. no cool claims have seen all of this. the personal information of those locals has been changed, so it's almost impossible to verify. so also one cap, one side of the story. what's interesting is that when the other side of the story is not just russia, as we've heard, but so the un backed c a r leadership. the president of the republic would like to point out that scene in and sentry did not visit the central african republic to confirm these facts. the cnn report is a deceitful and defamatory report based on rumors circulated on social media. now, well, as we had seen, that might not have visited the c a r to sort of see what's actually happening on the ground already correspondent konstantin roscoe did. and this is what he found moving forward in disability to talk to the local. and they were like really severely brutalized in harassed by, by rebels in less than a month. village for 3 man as his father was murdered by military because he

received the money thing. it's not much you can take from these people. this is what a typical village house looks like inside jar ramp. the only furniture is small that the children sleep right on the floor. when the russian scheme, what did they do here? door, no problem. we came to protect. how did the russians have? they've been impressive. no, haven't. well, all those was, or indeed the was of the see all president himself fit in with the findings of the un remains unclear. but one thing is absolutely clear, and that is that according to moscow, these latest explosive claims, in no way reflect reality. yet another story were closely following. today. the main witness in the u. s. case against julian, the son chance admitted he gave a false testimony. speaking to an icelandic newspaper,

he said the wiki licks funder never asked them to huck any computers or phones. it's a blow for washington with some seeing the admission of fatal to its case against the san among them fellow whistleblower edwards. no. this is the end of the case against julian sanchez. if biden continues to seek the extradition of a publisher under an indictment poison top to bottom, with false testimony admitted by its own star, witness the damage to the united states, reputation and press freedom would last for a generation. it's unavoidable for the better part of a decade. the united states and its allies wanted sonjee. they came up with allegations and grand juries and smear campaigns to get to him. we knew that what we didn't know is how many of america's charges against the sods charges that could lambda signs in jail for a 175 years. a reportedly made up the main witness and then the

charges against assigned to the extra decent request father. in the u. k. gave an interview to stand and i standing publication. his name is siegel do in youth for this. and he apparently has a piece of work charges were piling up against thought, a send with the sunday call authorities for massive fraud forgeries and theft on the one hand, and for sexual violations against under age boys. he had tricks or forced into sexual act from the other during his time as a volunteer wiki legs way lied and claim to be almost none, but 2 after a sons. he said to rob them of $50000.00 and donated funds and stole hard drives packed with documents. when we started asking questions, guess who he cooled thought and saw a way out on august the 23rd. he sent an email for the u. s. embassy in iceland offering information. the prosecutors and f. b, i were quick in responding and within 48 hours, a private jets, london in reykjavik, with around 8th agents,

who quickly set up meetings with thought us and told us that was willing to say anything. he lied to them, he now says about asking him to break into government systems. he admits the lying about that, but that is all ready in the charges against the savage. right now this activity was said include attempts to hug into the computers of members of parliament and record their conversations. in fact, thought as to now mister stunt in the songs never asked him to hack or access phone recordings of m p. 's. moreover, the british judge reviewing the extradition request agreed with the charges charges, many of which are now said to be live such as went through this and claim that he accessed a police vehicle database legitimately while working as a volunteer for rescue services and blamed it on assad, more deceptive language emerges in the upper mentioned judgments where it states a songs use the unauthorized access given him by a source. so access government websites of iceland used to track police vehicles.

there was more much more about stolen band fall than hacking, all of which was twisted by thought this and, and the f b i who must have known how unreliable he was. but what, what would you do for immunity? i yes, the f b i offered for the son, immunity from prosecution for all the things that they knew he did. furthermore, the f b, i told him it wouldn't share anything with the police. you think he learned his lesson? if this, the offer of immunity had encouraged torrison to take boldest steps in crime, he started to fleece individuals and coldness on a grander scale than ever before. during the bo kraft vice shell companies and much, much more. this is the main weakness than the prosecution. and persecution of julian assad. this is the best that they could do if verified these interview will

be a serious blow, if not the dennis of the case against the staunch the case that has riled rights and press activists for years. in case that may well criminalize journalism, as we know it, and the case that bull mom, america, for years to come like what are they most get left with? we remember that the judge prohibited the san jose extradition only because of his carrying health situation. it's the danger, commit suicide in the us prison. at the same time, she essentially agreed with the argon and fabricated by the us and based on testimonies of a person who, as we know, said himself that his testimony was fictional, false. and of course this must have consequences for the extradition presentation for fuel. but i think the finding the ministration must once and for all right, this case on a criminalization of journalism in united states and doesn't look for justice in the julian a sorry look for revenge and revenge against the journalist who help us get to

reveal its all crimes, and that's why they will use any means possible to punish julian assault and make an example of india that no one else will dare think if they can see the spy. the new edge revelations, by the actual indic newspaper, former un special repertoire, an arbitrary detention ludes under us, believes washington will plow on with their homes 1st, sons. regardless, these are very serious allegations and they do fit into the larger picture where you have authority is to, you know, take heart on law very seriously. they want to punish mister sanchez and they have largely succeed in the icelandic article. a newspaper article shows the day he was lying, that there was no truth to the statement by this past. and that is what the u. s. o carcass should have known,

but probably did not take too seriously. they have wanted to punish mister sanchez for his exercise or freedom of expression, poise, disclosure of war crimes. all abuses with terrible crime. and the hope now must be that the english and the new k coerce and now lock an extradition. i really hope they do this the most recent story. just add to the various holy grounds for refusing to extradite me just united states and what is an exercise home or freedom of expression which has provided us with a basis for understanding military actions and human rights abuses in iraq war many of the important issues which we have not learned about if it hadn't been called the disclosures of, of leaks and mr. sanchez,

the check president has branded transgender people disgusting. they're committing in his words, a crime of self harm. his comments came while he was being quizzed over a new law, passed last week and hungry and halting the spirit of l. g p. t. content in schools over to i can understand gays and lesbians, but what i don't understand, it's all a transgender people. if you want to go sex change operation, you basically committing a crime of self harm. these people are really intrinsically disgusting to me as the new hungary in legislation. i was the protection or promotion of l g b t, material to children at bands. the sharing of content on homosexuality or gender reassignment to people on directing in sex education lessons or in films or adverts . it's part of

a wider law presented by the ruling hungarian party to fight sex crimes against minors which include much tougher sentences. the bill was passed by parliament, although some opposition politicians boycotted. the vote hungry move has provoked the anger of other you members during a summit last week, many of the blocks leaders condemned the law with some even suggesting hungry should quit the union if it doesn't accept. it's founded on these letters author hallmark and i said to meet you or man, if you don't like it and you can comply with that, there is also an alternative and that's to get out of the union. the hungarian bill is a shame. this bill clearly discriminate against people on the basis of their sexual orientation. and it goes against all the values, the fundamental values of the european union. i am defending the rights of the whole sexual guide. but the sloth is not about that. it's about the right of the

kids, and the parents, the law is about that to decide what kind the way the parents would like sexually educate the pete's exclusively belonging to the parents. that's the law about $61.00, and it's very sad if you're a backbone, which is the respective laws and values, has to be guaranteed by judges and no longer by politicians. this is not a good sign for europe, means there is the division know between member states, but within member states, and that will always be at someone's expense. and i regret that i'm delighted to say welcome onto the program. now i can is the former austrian minister of foreign, the 1st car in can they're so good the how you and the show common thinking brussels said budapest has to respect the rights of everyone. though the e. u is clearly reluctant to accept the hungry views on certain topics. there's a contradiction there is there not. while hungary is an interesting case

for me as a kind of micro cause, some of the many other fraction friction lines that we have been observing was in the european union. let's see, ever since 2008, 9. it started with the financial crisis. we had a north south fraction we had ever seen the migration rises of 2015, the wet watershed line. and then the last 3 years or so called article 7 procedure, which to european commission launched with regard to both hungry and fallen when it comes to rule of law and mission from the line. and now last week that there will be an additional procedure against hungary because of that particular lawyer to go to. and it's, it's my cost of the many, many friction that we have within the european union. we've just heard from you politicians suggesting hungry should think of quitting the block. if it doesn't

share its values is done in the attempt to actually show hungry the door. are they threatening to kick the ation? no, it no, i don't see hungary quitting on your the other 26th kicking out hungry. that will not be the case. but what we see definitely is this partners atmosphere that is there, and that is, that has all dre got into chancellor mackerel to say, while we should rethink the need to proficient when it comes to foreign policy. because the founder is position with regard to china with regard to other foreign policy issues and hungry. definitely all the profiting a lot from the european union in particular in terms of cohesion, fund, cultural subsidies, etc. i don't see anybody quitting or kicking out, but the atmosphere is bad and there will be, i could imagine all rolling actually i growing

about why, you know, i kind of on playing against a certain rules by your opinion, maybe even from other member states because as we have seen 14 year members signed the petition against hungary, but central and eastern european states somehow tacitly implicitly sub out a hiding with hungry. do you think that everyone in the you really finds brussels course on equivocal or are they just going along with it to avoid confrontation? does the, you have the right to decide what's best for everyone in this regard? why when it comes to rule of floor and is just like freedom? democracy, i think when you put your fast into the shoes of an average from gary and was something between 60 and 70 or average punish son for,

for people in that age group. in particular, they remember very well what they have been told by the parents about the 5060. so let's take hungry 966 revolved revolution october revolution. guarantee for fighting for all kinds of principles. the pin union claims to stand for such a freedom of expression, such as the quality democracy. and i started the hungarian language a bit. i've been trying to hungary over the last 3035 years on the regular level. and 966 narrative is very much present in political and the age group of people between 4550 to 70 because they do very well. remember the betrayal? why do was in 1966, you had this with crisis in north africa. you had to have the are in lucian, missile. the union was given a free hand in hungary,

and they were peace could do what they did in was got to egypt. so there was a kind of pretty cool crow. why haven't gary and paid a very high price and people have forgotten that the same was true for, for various punish a citizen saying well me for the 1980s, solid on or so we high price and, and all by himself. his biography opened claims book. i know what freedom flight means, so you're not going to tell me and there's this larger my last that's what can one can observe. yes, very interesting point. it's not the 1st time of course that you powers have struggled to reach a common consensus on some issues. for instance, the, the big overriding on the open door policy for migrant special ed to many, many limited discussions. it is, there are crisis brewing inside the block. is it getting worse?

the atmosphere is bad to friction, sub dera, and nothing has been done in order to calm those. i what one could observe in the press conference is last friday, saturday, friday on thursday and friday that even a chancellor american said there wasn't very emotional controversy on that topic. so that topic that you can, you could deem marginal with regard to panoramic, to the budget problem and so on. and then as overshadow. and this is what most probably continue, that you will have these kind of shadows, this kind of procedure throw some member, come to see like maybe a 2nd plus just wrap up on the subject. you may have heard victor or bon just a few moments ago speaking about seeing that it's essentially the parents who should decide what's best to teach their children hungry. claims that the law is designed to shield kids from inappropriate sexual and material. leading to

the point that is, is that not possibly a good point to make that you know, even though schools can teach this, it should really be for kids to allow them to be children. if that's a discussion point, that may be well they've got the right to do that to, to leave it to the parents what the law as far as i have followed reporting about the law i didn't read it's it's, it's, it's topic is the criticism. spamming from the commission and other member states is that the legislation puts up to say, pebble flies and homosexuals into one back. and this is a very harsh criticism, but what you have just been describing, yes, this is the hungarian argumentation, and that's how the whole legislation was all those sold on a domestic level. it's a delicate topic, no doubt about that. and it only shows that and

a very by point it's like a sledgehammer being put on a delicate subject. yes. and it's, i think there is from a hungarian vantage point from what i've been observing over the last years is and it's just kind of feeling you preference. you have no idea about our story about our culture among our essential. so there is, there is a real, our historical speechlessness between process and, and some member states from hungary, one at stake was always a pleasure to have you on the program explaining about giving us your point of view as well. current connect, so former austrian minister of foreign affairs. thank you very much for your time and your thoughts. you're welcome. good evening. 10 people have not been confirmed dead after an apartment complex collapsed in miami. however,

more than $150.00 are still missing. after large parts of the building came on on thursday, our t correspondent john had the file this report from the c this. it continues to be a search and rescue operation. it hasn't switched to a certain recovery operation. so obviously people are holding out hope that perhaps rescues will find any and all signs of life. but that hope is really for a miracle at this point. and earlier we did speak with some people here about the ongoing operation about the overall atmosphere and my grandmother. she's lived here since 2001. and the last time that i spoke with her was the day before the collapse on the phone. i'm training for the mirror called the millennium, where my grandmother is alive and well underneath the rebel against the odds. i'm concerned about my mom. i wonder if she was leasing. i wonder if she didn't call

any of our phones on the voicemail a terrible tragedy. i mean, i came out here basically the moral support virtual support, but it's crazy, obviously, while hope remains, it's really hope for a miracle. and along with miami dade search and rescue cruise, there's also crews with fema federal emergency management agency, also investigators from washington d. c. federal investigators worry are on the scene working with local authorities and investigating how and why this happened. that at this point is looking like a confluence of factors, a perfect storm, if you will. there was it back at 2018. a structural engineers report that was commissioned by the condo association as part of their recertification process for this building, pointing out structural deficiency structural degradation in the building problems with the concrete, basically crap and cracking. and along with that report, there was also in 2020 and a report, a study done by florida international university environmental scientist at the

university, pointing out with shifting, arose and soil, and basically san loved land subsidence. as we pointed out in this particular building, the champlain tower south was right basically in the warning zone in the red alert zone, as he said, as he reported in this study. so there is a number of contributing factors leading to what is now a catastrophe. well, my only based lawyer, christian missouri told me that the trust me will have huge legal repercussions for the city. well, i think that the building association was aware what was going on. and the people in charge of hiring the services of these building administrators who were the ones who had the responsibility of making sure that these repairs will be properly applied, please walls and structures and pillars. they were not done. and we also have to remember that the you engineer board about 30 years ago had already worn that the

pillars in the building would be thinking at a rate of almost like 2 millimeters per year. due to be sub terrain which was before the building was built, a actual leak. and i think that what we're going to see in the future days and months is a bunch of lawsuits not only against the building association or whoever is responsible for not taking care of these repairs in time and also against the city and the county of miami. dade, and i'm sure that whoever is the building or the company that, that administers this condominium will have to answer some like you know, precise questions. if you knew there were issues with the building, why didn't you have a plan and store? and if you have a plan store, how much money did you have? where was the money invested? who was hired to take care of the job. and you had about 30 years to take care of this problem and nothing was bringing you across the atlantic from there. a major

fire is broken out near the elephant and castle underground station in central london foot. it shows a huge plume of thick black smoking. golfing a building and rising into the sky, a nearby building has been evacuated. the fire reportedly started in garbage is housed in the arches of the station. 10 fire engines on their own. 70 fire fighters were sent to the newer you have any injuries. the place is such a will that brings us to the end of this news block. don't go too far, though more great programs get going in moments live from moscow every hour of the day. this is our team, me the

rather driven by shaped by those in the me there's thing we dare to ask me. ah

ah ah, i use the the oh baby i want you to look very good stuff and it's not chicken down here in the.
