well for moscow. thanks for joining us tonight. the 19th and actually daniel, who use with utah sunrise, welcome to the program. now there's little hope that the 5 people still missing off an explosion at a chemical plant in germany on tuesday will be found the live. that's according to the company that runs the plot. 2 people are confirmed dead and more than 30 injured or to speak to all of our reports from the site koran. so the company that operates the chemical park just behind me, where the explosion and subsequent fire took place on tuesday. say that it started in amongst tanks, containing between 60900000 liters of industrial solvents. the investigation is on the way to try and find out how this was able to happen. a blast,
10:02 pm
which is claimed a number of lives and left dozens injured. the colossal smoke cloud towering hundreds of meters into the sky. the waste incineration facilities right next to downtown lay the truth and over 160000 people live in the city. i spoke to some who told me they were genuinely frightened by this explosion. and the potential for what the aftermath could have brought back. is it was terrible. i was very scared. i live nearby and i could see everything from my balcony. my windows were rattling from the blast at the start. i was incredibly frightened. then i saw the white cloud at 1st. i thought it was a tornado. i was worried, we live here, we know what they make and store here, and there are dangerous chemicals from sight. and it was about $945.00. we were in our apartment when we heard a lot extreme, a loud bang, which it was a container being dropped from a nearby construction side and people came out of the store here. everyone was very
10:03 pm
concerned. so 1st we didn't see anything, but just 10 minutes later there was a huge cloud towering over the town. i saw the cloud moving away from the city so that made me less worried. nevertheless, we took precautions, shut our windows and doors, and all other common sense measures. while initial testing is showing no elevated levels of pollution in the air, checks will continue on samples from air land and even rain water falling from clouds in contact with the smoke. according to the state environmental agency, there is no longer any pollution of the year. we have sued precipitation in different parts of the city. the state environmental agency, to example, in our behalf, took samples there to be evaluated. the results are not yet available until then we have already said applies, do not eat anything that is covered and suit and ensure that what is already on the floor is not moved. then we are relatively safe. as a precaution, we have closed the playground and the effected part of the city holy particles
10:04 pm
about the size of the euro coin being deposited on some nearby neighborhoods. the strict rules remain in place on what you must not do until samples can be thoroughly examined. and tested to see if they're dangerous leader of the state of north ryan with follies and men in the running to the next chancellor of germany, arm and lush. it has expressed his condolences to the families of the killed and praise the heroism of rescue workers. it's just a couple of weeks since the state and the west of germany was among the areas battered by lisa flooding. one of the big tufts now is to make sure that there is no long lasting effect from this tragic disaster. both he in the immediate area further afield, feature all of our r t in labor cruise in western germany. ecuador has revoked student assaulted your citizenship saying his original application contained mistakes and that he never
10:05 pm
actually paid the feed phones is currently in a u. k. jail awaiting a decision on a us extradition request. in 2019 police extra grades at him from ecuador, an embassy in london, where he claimed to sign them. we spoke to his lawyer who says that could all decision to strip him off. his citizenship is illegal. because he knew this was developing according to a pre plan scenario. after astonished lost his diplomatic asylum, former ecuador imprison lenny moreno needed to somehow justify the invasion of british police at the embassy. and the only possibility was just to deprive julius orange of ecuador instead of than ship, which is against ecuador in legislation. so it would be a good orange foreign ministry council, the san jose naturalization. so that the bridge is police could enter the embassy. they needed to show that he was not in ecuador incentives, and at the time since the ecuador in constitution prohibits the extradition of its citizens to a 3rd country. this was deliberately wrong, a legal, unjust,
10:06 pm
and country to the constitution and human rights. they simply followed this unworthy scenario they, by exposing ecuador in the extremely unfavourable light, that drawn against the thorns, is a political one. not only that in the decision to revoke us on just citizenship, they rely solely on a report verified by a former state official who's currently accused of corruption, an trolleys underway against it. they 6 of the tokyo olympics and the prices rising russian uninstalled, o'neill with veteran flashed out of the question, giving a press conference if you was unwarranted and inappropriate right after the latest, when she's an extra shift he has a story, you would think that the olympic games to something only about sports where the athletes have been preparing for all their lives to take part in this ultimate event for many athletes across the world. but this time it's starting very political. every time an athlete from russia is appearing at a press conference or after winning a medal
10:07 pm
a he or she is being tested with questions about the doping scandals of the past and about why russia is allowed to participate in the olympics at all. so was the case of worlds. number 2 in trying to then, you know, meet the idea of who just won his game and unbearably hot conditions. it was very humid and very, very hot on the court. he almost collapsed at one point even, and the questions were directed to him were not about the situation. he faced all that court. but one journalist came over and asked whether mitigate, felt that russia's participation in the olympics was cheating itself. with video came up with a very sharp response. first time in my life, i'm not going to answer a question. you should be embarrassed of itself. i think you should wire him from the olympics. i don't want to see him again. the international tennis federation responded that it will lot ban this journalist that a journalists have the right to off questions. but speaking of the question, this is not the 1st time this is happening. as i said to athletes representing
10:08 pm
russia, media, just call it china also said the same that he's been tested with questions about the doping scandals of the past. and i'd like to remind you what that russia's participation in the tokyo olympics. this time is very much limited because of the doping scandals of the past because the world anti doping agency effectively banned russia and it's symbolic. strom taking part in major competitions across the planet for 4 years. russia won the appeal in the cost in the court for arbitration of sports, and thus the country was allowed to take part in the olympics under the name r o c. this is an acronym for the russian olympic committee, but even that name and full cannot be used. it's just r o c. and this is something that russian athletes and the russian, the limpid committee have been observing since day one of the olympic games. even the opening rest conference at. busy the tokyo olympics, it last about an hour 20 minutes long, 45 minutes of which was dedicated to russia's participation on
10:09 pm
a different name in the olympic games this time. and despite all that, despite all this pressure coming from all sides, because not only kind of plant, but obviously the athletes and all other disciplines are being asked questions like that, trying to ignore them all the time. despite all that, russia or the r o c. if you may, is performing very well right now. it stands for, and the overall metal stable nearing on its 20th metal, in the olympics in day 6. and that is something that's many journalists, particularly those sports related, not politics related, cannot avoid. and they note that russia is performing or the r o c is performing very well at the olympics. that wasn't the only reason some people's focus is shifting away from the actual sport that these games seem usa. most decorated gymnast simone biles hit the headlines, but withdrawn from the completion ahead of the final round. so i think that mental health concerns. yeah, i say mental health 1st,
10:10 pm
because if you don't then you're not going to enjoy your spore and you're not going to succeed as much as you want to. so it's ok sometimes to even set out the big competition to focus on yourself because it shows how strong of a competitor and person that you really are rather than just battle through. it boils said she started shaking hours before the competition prompting the pillow coat. she couldn't carry on the final result in the us team taking home silva teammates, either us sports figures appraised while for her bravery of besides mental health. the games have also thrown spotlights on sexism. the german female gymnastic team chose full body unit of instead of a more traditional bikini leotard decision was made to protest the sexualization of athletes. a colleague or research discussed increasing attention being paid up the games to non sporting issues with a panel of guess whole issue of uniform. and the sexualization of women has to go quite soon and it can be so very simply, he just say,
10:11 pm
here are the uniformed men and women. no different, obviously, to preserve modesty in swim where we have to have a little bit different here and there. but in the main women cricketers play in the same uniforms as mel cricketers as a do the same in football on all of the sports. exactly the same and quite agree that the germans have made a legitimate protest here. if they want to play performing unit charge, that's perfectly or i by may certainly some culture don't feel very comfortable wearing the kind of clothes that we consider normal. so we do have a problem be on the one hand, the lympics is designed to extol abuse in the professional human body operating at peak efficiency. so it's there to be admired. all the other hand, we have contributed lympics, who may feel uncomfortable with that being a limb. in particular, maybe there's a case for some element of choice,
10:12 pm
but in the same time, we don't want to lose the essence of what they're lympics is one of the biggest things about the pattern and your skills isn't actually, and that's what you're judging. not charging the uniform and what, what people don't realize of this explanation of women when they can be very self conscious when wearing we're beating clothing, which might actually performance. so really, if we really care about the school and the police and the skilled, we should allow them to feel confident and what they are wearing. are you afraid perhaps that non sport issues or political ones in particular for example, that could become main talking points in the future olympics? no, i'm not worried. i think it's the last that i think is a great opportunity. we've seen so many changes already, and i'm not worried, i still feel like eventually it will kind of not slide down, but we will respect, respect that with the school. but for now i'm happy to different lympics. let's put it that way. everyone watching on tv and watching, you know, 68 tests and see the stadium with everything they can come,
10:13 pm
pretend i'm enjoying it as much as i do. other olympics i have to say, but you know, sports is to be enjoyed by everyone. and i suppose we have to contend to sell millions of viewers watching tv all over the world. do you think political connotations and virtual signaling? perhaps, according to some might, might take center stage and future olympics. and should that be a concern? well, it should be confirmed because we don't want to be just a vehicle for the latest. 5 that comes along lympics should represent social mores as they change, but in eastern preventive own century old brand, it needs to keep, continue to keep that wow fight. so that we have when we see the olympics of it with their own specific procedures and, and, and habits and ways. and that's the beauty olympics, that's what we want to save. we don't want to make it to temporary to trans. yeah. and just this way, formal insane. the mental health issue of simone biles, she withdrew. i mean, it's not me to very, very difficult decision for gigi think perhaps she's set an example. i'm guessing
10:14 pm
the bylaws is cognizant of a saw experience and felt that her, her game wasn't exactly right to me. clearly she was way, way off her peak the 1st couple of days of competition. and so she decided to pull out. i think there's a bit of an irony, though, you know, rory here. the fact that she has withdrawn has bull further attention to her. i mean, if she sort of quietly underperformed and, and perhaps explained to the media that she does, this is just one of those events. she can't be at her peak all the time and then quietly slipped away fine. but she really has made an announcement him put mental health health back on the map. again. i think it's an important one that don't run away with the idea that i don't think this, but young people in sport today are subjected to the most intense pressure to
10:15 pm
perform at that time to come speak about the topic, especially with that with, with the whole thing about the mental issue is a topic has had such as the years and only recently that people have mental health . and i think they lim picked the path example. why not expect i really feel like you said, especially in, in can say they think they really try been years and years and they carry the country on the shoulder is i have to be like, okay, i have mental health, i'm not gonna be home. and if she can't do it now and pay for the young people, that might be the pressure then when, when else would be able to do it. the wide range of issues that are being now thrown up at these games. does it suggest perhaps that athletes concerns are only being taken seriously when it's too late? that raising a concern at a grand event like this? well, that's the way it gets more attention than anywhere else. i mean, the, i think we need to keep our eye on what the lympics is about. it's supposed to be
10:16 pm
an event which comes along every 4 years, where the people who participate in oper, paid both mentally and physically. i mean, the whole word olympians implies a level of a peak performance mentally and physically which is beyond most of the rest of us. so i think that if, if there are these issues, we'd better if they were applied to hurley though the importance of mental health issue obviously shouldn't be underestimated about perhaps putting that on to the lympics as well as perhaps too much is a sporting event. it should be kept as a sporting event. if one is not ready for one really shouldn't be there. you can only find out sometimes, but you're not ready for it. when you're there already, in which case we have to respect, as in the case, has been biles. she deserve it because it can be an easy decision for her to talk on that. laurie lightfoot says she isn't sorry for her decision to give interviews. i need to know what report of adding it. it's for it's a much needed debate. i will absolutely do it again. i'm an apologetic about it
10:17 pm
because it's 3rd, very important conversation. the conversation that needed to happen, that should have happened a long time ago. the matter also notice that media conferences are dominated by white reporters and says it's high time outlets better afflicted. the makeup of american society is being sued for the daily color. almost at an ounce. you all use that. she's violating basic principles of freedom of the press. one is not the 1st time chicago's mass come under 5 racial policies last month like declared racism, of public health crisis invalid to allocate maybe $10000000.00 of cobra relief money to improve the wellness of long walk communities in chicago. the executive director of hyphenated america, christopher harris, as democrats like to play the racial court destruct people from their own famous woke agenda is nothing more than smoking mirrors as a smoke screen just to distract people from all the other things that are taking place. it's apostrophe,
10:18 pm
we can just run on down the line and all the people out there, whether it's the elected officials like laurie lightfoot, or other people in the media who are out there trying to gin up race wars. and all that is a slight of hand to try to, to just to distract you from the things that are not working with their public policies. and look at the results. the black community or somebody say the african american community is one of the ones that suffer the most by continuing to vote for people like laurie lightfoot in for the party that she represents. because it just leads to more swirling around the toilet. that's essentially what ends up happening in the black community to something you snapshot for around the world now, starting with turkey, where tourists were able to witness the joint smoke cloud rising, i have a one of the beaches in antalya wildfires cause it to lead the cooling let the full neighborhoods being evacuated. closer to home here in russia. the country is also battling wild flies the seems you can see from its northern region of korea.
10:19 pm
as you can see, it's blanketed with thick small. it's been that way for over a week now. an area of over 150 kilometers is affected with a state of emergency declared. the permanent has strongly refuted claims by us president joe biden, that russia intended to interfere in the 2022 congress election. russian president spokesman also said that moscow at washington can hardly be cool partners. as of now, russia has never interfered in us electrical processes. the results of many investigations conducted in the u. s. confirm that russia certainly does not, and has no intention of meddling in any electoral processes in foreign states. if you haven't noticed, it's hardly possible to cold russia and the u. s. partners now rather there are opponents with whom we negotiate. i mean, it seems like never ending deja vu to be honest, we have another us election here and more baseless accusations of russian meddling
10:20 pm
. i mean, we heard from moscow, they outright rejected those claims because the only thing we have to go by with them is basically biden's word. i think we also need to take on the rapid disinformation. russia is doing already about the 2022 elections. and this information to pure a violation of our sovereignty. barton was apparently given this information by the us intelligence community, as at his daily meeting. again, without any evidence that we know of at least it's being claimed that russia is intent on meddling and in the u. s, mid term elections that are going to take place next year. now at that time, the entire house of representatives and a 3rd of the senate are going to be up for grabs. so that really makes you think, you know, it's going to take a lot for someone to see how radically rig elections on a scale like that, you know, but anyway, but also specifically called out president russian president vladimir putin. so let's take a listen to what he said. when i was with mister prudent, who has
10:21 pm
a real problem, he is he sitting on top of an economy that has nuclear weapons and oils and nothing else. he knows. he knows he's in real trouble, which makes me more dangerous. and my view is pretty weird. biden would say that though, because washington, i mean, has nearly the same amount of nuclear weapons as russia does, making it just as dangerous as moscow in that department. so why is russia in trouble? i mean, the, the entire situation really just seems like hostile rhetoric coming from across the atlantic. and it's very timely as well. because remember, just last month there was a summit between joe biden and vladimir putin lillia. we discussed funds and you ations with karen's, you and i, who was senior advisor to the 2016 trump campaign. as well as journalist and commentator chadwick moore. he's trying to get attention away from crumbling things happening in this country. if you want to talk about geopolitical adversaries, whereas china and i don't think many americans see russia as a threat,
10:22 pm
nor would they like to see russia as a threat. but of course, when, when is approval waiting, the new hol can update the lowest approval ratings of his presidency. so of course, he's deflecting and why not be reliable boogeyman from a cold war era and go back to russia. what's really interesting is, we don't know what is russian medley or interference. what is this misinformation campaign? and who decides what is real information and what is false information? anything that already does it like is misinformation. and so if the, whether you're trying to, whether you just to use, whether you're trying to, to get up the base, whether he's trying to prepare for massive loss in 2022 and something to blame it on is unclear. it's bizarre rhetoric, there's no evidence, no one buying the rush or hopes anymore. i think this is coming from the fact that the democrats know that they are going to lose lose badly in the 2022 elections were here because they don't have the right car. so in order to win election,
10:23 pm
they either have to cheat steel, lie or blame a foreign nation for whatever defeats they know they're that are coming their way in 2022. i think this is a precursor to try to do damage control. you have to remember in 2016, the democrats cried foul with regard to donald trump hurrying his place at the white house whenever they lose the election. it's throwing out these, these curve balls as to foreign intervention. the west efforts and going to san were a failure, according to russia's defense minister. he was speaking at a meeting of the shanghai corporation organization, which brings together top military officials from your asian countries, including china and india, aut easy trunk. i've been keeping an eye on the high profile gathering and matters the speak exclusively to the minister himself. where in the capital of to jacob stand just to the north of of janet stand where as a result of
10:24 pm
a swift pull out by the us led coalition, the crisis is deteriorating. day by day. the taliban is pretty much in control of the entire country, apart from the couple region and this could easily spill over the border. now, as the russian minister of defense was meeting his counterparts from the neighboring countries here induce on bear, he blamed the us for the situation that's getting increasingly dangerous for the hasty withdrawal of us and nato troops create lots of problems. we're aware of the ongoing robust work aimed at providing security on the border, which is currently a hotbed for many risks, threats and challenges. if you look at the map of, of dentist and you will see that it is surrounded by countries that are russian allies from 2 different blocks, one is made out of post. so be countries. and the other one is rushes alliance with trying it together with some of the different neighbors. now,
10:25 pm
what moscow wants to do is to reassure its neighbors that it is ready to help at any time if the situation gets worse. moscow has a military base here and to just near to somebody that is ready for action at any time. the other thing that russia wants to do is to cement it's key role in the region, which doesn't make the us happy. as i've heard when i spoke exclusively to the head of the russian army here induce and make sure plenty of mr. corby of the management of the u. s. withdrawal is kind of where everyone is taking place. indeed, some of heinously, the u. s. is holding talks with all the countries adjacent to afghanistan on establishing certain logistical hubs on the territories, and begs the question, what's the point of putting out well remaining on the border? the answer is obvious. it's an attempt to retain its position in the central asian region, are to failing absolutely everything in afghanistan when it comes to instability.
10:26 pm
after the u. s. give me at least one example where the situation has been improved after a long running us presence. now here's a fact for you when more than 25 years ago survey showing was the head of rushes, emergencies, ministry. he was in charge of an entire operation of rescuing refugees that were flowing out of gas. stan beyond the soviet pull out. and also when the soviet union collapsed and the situation in afghanistan was deteriorating because of the stronger islamist groups in the country. now this is why the local ministers of defense and leaders praised survey showing whose role in sorting up the current situation. one of the proposals that came from the russian ministers of defense was to intensify the drills between russia and its allies here. and the 1st part of these drills called peace mission will happen in september. and china is also going
10:27 pm
to take part in those extra commentary follows the stories of to philippine former child soldiers as they struggled to build new lives in crisis. childhood were back in for now with the latest headlines to join us again that me . ah, ah. do you know going to count down the next day she has torn and historic day in monetary history. that would be august 15th, 1971, the day that then president richard nixon close the gold window, basically defaulting on america's obligations to great britain at the time. and
10:28 pm
since then we've had pure monetary chaos. the jaffar and up dollar format isis fighters. and they're now boarding a philippine naval ship mom, i mean the the
10:29 pm
whole my phone are 60 and that'll let me me me set up. i think about the scene of the new ah, the did it for love life live with confront him. i know, i believe there that would be time. i know for me, i love face to face that i said, i love it though. now,
10:30 pm
the last minute when the business owner knows that jeff, i spend time with isis, but his friends and acquaintances dirt, he keeps his past hidden from them. and everybody lays in place and we have been better due to the supper loaded, rayleigh, gale must be doing the bottom.
