$911.00 attack, we're going to take a look at america terror, industrial complex the after delays and sanctions, russia finally completes construction of the controversial nord stream to pipeline . it's set to deliver low cost natural gas from siberia to central europe. the 911. they did not speak. if you are not the medical you deserve not. that these fascism. on the weekend of the 91120th anniversary r t looks at the lasting impact of the us led war on terror. we hear from a former guantanamo prisoner, released after 14 years of unlawful detention. and the moscow says it has
9:01 pm
irrefutable proof that big tech helps washington illegally interfere in russia's upcoming election. summoning the u. s. envoy for an explanation. ah, it's the top of the hour and you know what that means. it's time for our teacher national. i'm your host donald quarter. welcome to the program. welding on the final sections of the colossal nord stream to gas pipeline has finally been completed. the head of gas prom, the company leading the project announced that the underwater link between russia and germany is now officially finished. despite assurances from both countries that north stream too, is strictly an economic project. it's come under massive pressure from both the u. s. and much of eastern europe, poland foreign minister says that his country's negative view of the project has
9:02 pm
not changed. while washington reacted by saying that the north stream to pipeline is a bad deal and will continue to counter it. ortiz dmitri poke, takes a closer look at the saga. now this pipeline has been a long time coming north stream 2 was started back in 2018, and was supposed to be finished by 2019. but with all the political turmoil surrounding it, it's taken up until now to finally complete it. now, the whole purpose of this pipeline is to connect russia with germany through the baltic sea, bypassing the transit states and eastern europe. and for germany, this pipeline has brought a lot of opportunity, especially now even with the gas prices in germany, already going off ahead of the winter season. but the construction of the pipeline itself has created many jobs in the country and the mayor of the german city of movement. and they've been praised, in fact, the project for bringing opportunity to his city. but i think the pipeline,
9:03 pm
the pipeline is very important for the town of lubin. we still benefits both during the construction and operating stages. our industrial port, which is a municipal port in which lumen has a stake, generated jobs as a result of the projects. in the long term operational phase, the time of leave me will receive a share of the business profits generated by the north stream through pipeline. as well as gas gates and other companies, that's one to 1500000 euros that will go to leave min town budget. but obviously not everyone was happy with the project. there was a lot of political turmoil and sanction, mainly by country like the us vacuum. he was president donald trump and pose a lot of the sanctions on the north stream to project. he wanted to deliver liquefied american gas to europe, but the price for that was higher than the russian alternative. so, nor stream to was sanctioned any companies and individuals that anything to do with the project, russell sanctioned by his successor, joe biden. when he came into office lifting those sanctions mainly because well,
9:04 pm
they didn't do that much to stop their projects and he didn't really have a choice at that point. my view on nurse to, to has been known for some time. good friends can disagree and, but by the time i became president, it was 90 percent completed. and imposing sanctions did not seem to make any sense . well nevertheless, the project was completed as complete. but even now still, there are countries that are continue to oppose it. ukraine has promised to continue fighting, i guess, nor stream to even after stars delivering gas to germany. and the former council president has continued making statements about just how dangerous nor string to is for germany and europe. this is an forgivable mistake with very serious consequences. it is a mistake arising from the selfish policies of german interests. i believe that the construction of no stream too is contrary to the interests of the e. u as
9:05 pm
a whole. now, despite all that opposition, the project is complete, and the russian form as spokesperson has said that there is nothing to stop it at this point and has urged countries not to interfere or make any obstacle to opperation in the future. and the pipeline is now fully operational. technically all the pieces have been connected, but now it's just the waiting certification. and it's expected that by the end of the year, it will start delivering gas to germany. we discussed the completion of the pipeline with a member of germany's governing c d. u party, as well as with a german economist and publisher does skip this. it is possible to interprets in different ways who was interested in using this commercial economic project, which is essentially aimed at ensuring reliable gas apply for political purposes. and what interests were being pursued from the point of view of ensuring the reliability of supplies. it has important that this project was nevertheless implemented and i'm glad it was possible to overcome political differences between
9:06 pm
different countries. and that this project is now viewed from a rational point to view and not from some other political angle benefits all year old. young economy breaks apart into europe, right to the need for russian guys is enormous. for example, with german guess storage at the minute at the record low. so for the week, we need daily gas and we have no capacity for the highest light including food to, to get to get. and it is very short mind shop mind this from the so called european partners to say, this is a good 4 year old. of course, there's no plan be in favor of the germans, that play b would be that germany would be happy blackmail by either the polish or by the americans to deliver this very high cost. which is all of our mental catastrophe. as many around the world prepare to mark the 20th anniversary
9:07 pm
of the september 11th attacks on the united states, our t special series, unheard voices, investigates. the stories of those we have suffered in unjustly during the subsequent war on terror. the will use all tools at our disposal, killed our children to united states was bringing people torture, so it was a pointless exercise. some of those are thought to be behind the attacks are being held in guantanamo bay, u. s. prison camp notorious for human rights abuses, such as torture, entertainment without trial. one former prisoner has since published a book on his 14 years inside called guantanamo diary. that story was later turned into an award winning movie with hollywood actors. and we were able to speak with him the me,
9:08 pm
i did call 1st to crimes. i didn't because of torture. i was the 5, i would be killed. they broke my i was not given food for a very long period of time. i was salted on multiple occasions, the provision for 70 days mostly, and was like alive, but still we have not included that it was the use of the i t's within that program that allowed us to obtain useful information from detainees subjected to them. i, you know, i didn't do anything. i said, i'm not that i'm not too hot that caused me
9:09 pm
a lot of been in for me leaving the country that the respects all of a lot me a bit silly book that was thrown into 27 languages. not saying this is me, i'm saying this is with the help of a law with the help of my lawyers. my support is my family and i'm so happy and it was adopted into a movie outside my family, my brother and their last go on. terrace, live goes on. it was 9 p 192 on 2 different occasions for a brief period of time. and i want to have gone to the gulf countries including jeremy, what i supported, i've gotten the stuff and we used to watch movies to watch, you know, document that is about them. and then i decided to join them, which i,
9:10 pm
i did not know what i'm tied up. why? i had no clue. so when i get to, i've gone to the training camp work console. well, that's the 1st time i know about that. i was very young and i was really misinform this was a very big propaganda machine led by as soon as the america and its allies allies. so they, they gave me the wrong picture. i thought it was a very good cause to free people and to establish it for the country. at least i didn't even know then what difficulty meant to be honest. i the people were fighting today. we were supporting in the fight against the soviet
9:11 pm
. i think it was february of 92, which ideally is so called, which i did talk over cobble. and i found myself in the middle of the civil war that i did not want to get off. that's why i went back to my studies for my life. my was i didn't including in 98 and the 1999, i received a phone call from my cousin and he was needing this for some blood to use the phone number. and then i was, i was the phone number was just a family call. you needed help for his father who father is like my father. and i did the necessary to hunter's father because he was
9:12 pm
sick and needed money. ah, i understand, you know, as the america is a demarcus of when it comes to muslims, people of color after 911. they did not speak. it acted like a fascist regime. because they said, if you are american would do as little of law. if you are not the american you deserve. that is fascism i lama do story has been told, but there are still many more to explore and will continue our series, hearing from others, both soldiers and civilians whose lives were changed forever by americans. longest war in our special coverage called on heard voices. the us war on terror and afghan,
9:13 pm
a stan ended catastrophically, but what sort of country has been left behind for a population facing taliban rule? once again, we look for these answers in our new documentary, which you can watch on line at r t dot com. september the 11th 2001 day that reshape the modern world. i remember watching the world trade center burn on a tv at the cia, and i was standing there like this just looking at it. and a colleague of mine was standing next to me and he said, my god, did they have any idea what they've done? we're going to kill everybody now everybody. the live apocalyptic tv image is provoked, the us into declaring its war on terror. begin to long africa, villages, and holders, and get all people hurt and,
9:14 pm
and killed. the main goal of destroying terrorism and africana stan was it achieved? yes and no. okay. to essentially no longer exists good for us. but there are certainly other terrorist groups that are worse than on the head of britons. m i. 5 intelligence agency has warned that extremists are looking to fill the void left by the pentagons pull out from afghanistan. there is no doubt that recent events and can assign will have hawkins and emboldened some of those extreme, a sense of being vigilant to precisely those kinds of risks. can, mccallum added that there is a real threat to the u. k, with 31 late stage terror plots disrupted since 2018, including 6 during the pandemic alone. what's now making things worse is that it's
9:15 pm
hard to carry out for checks on afghan refugees, both due to their large numbers and the fact that many lack documentation the dangers were highlighted when a man sentenced to 8 years in prison for raping his daughter, escaped f ganna stan on an evacuation flight to germany. he had already been deported in 2019 over the offence yet was able to return. nevertheless, both britain and germany, se evacuations from afghanistan will continue meals off long, and we will continue their vacation operation for as long as possible in order to make it possible for after school worked with us for security. 3 down the rule of law and development to leave the country. we feel responsibility to make sure that the remaining british nationals in africa and workers can come to the u. k. that's why we watch with great interest what may be possible to bill for a former head of britons counter terrorism, security office,
9:16 pm
told us that governments must face up to the growing threat. i'll call you who have been sitting in the background. a little bit will be completely emboldened by this, and of course i say, we've seen already and that's going to stand the writing that absolutely. you see this is a generational fight. no one that's going to be one over 2 or 3 years. very much so big problem for the whole of the way i think the immigration right didn't come out, probably less likely to be operating tarrot, people that have gone through some kind of grading work for the u. k. o or, or other countries interpreted or otherwise, or maybe even at the embassy, those people are probably not the best right to the, to the way, more of a threat and the people that are literally leaving by the thousands of course, the land borders. because those people are regulated, they don't know who they are. opening up with borders has
9:17 pm
a lot of criminals generally to leave the back within community and the european union are really struggling. but of course in the u. k. at the moment, people coming across the straits of dover into the u. k. on boats. all those people are pretty much unregulated and real strong views in the community. that there is no room for immigration and it's going to be incumbent upon the governments all governments, the work and how they're going to do that in a very difficult situation. moscow's foreign ministry says it has irrefutable proof that us tech giants have illegally helped washington metal. in next week's russian parliamentary li, a parliamentary elections. the ministry summoned us ambassador john sullivan for an explanation. russia has irrefutable proof of violation of russian law by american digital giants in the context of the preparation and conduct of the state duma
9:18 pm
elections in connection with this. we state that interference in the internal affairs of our country is absolutely and admissible. while the statement didn't give too much away on what exactly happened in that meeting with the us, ambassador, we do know it was quite brief apart. last about to 20 minutes did give away the topic of the discussion, which was election interference with particular reference to textual it. we do know what's immediately preceded this though. in the last 2 years, we've had a lot of stories about russian interference in western election cycles, in particular. the u. s. elections, it seems now though the tables have a power ton united, russia, deputy with silly fiscal off is also the head of the committee of safety united to corruption. and now to media today, alleged evidence of this interference had been sent to the russian foreign ministry statements by the us president alleging our interference in american elections without the slightest evidence is nothing more than hysteria from the american
9:19 pm
leadership. accusations have been made for years, but we have never seen any concrete facts. and yet, unlike biden, we have evidence, irrefutable proof of direct us involvement. we will pass all this to the russia foreign ministry for consultation with our ambassador in washington. oh, that part, it wasn't all that, but he also added that the commission apparently had in their possession dozens of american manuals instructions and training videos on how to influence russian election campaigns of how to get opposition candidates into positions of power. now the other issue here is internet regulation. so same topic, particularly during sensitive times like election cycles for all countries. russian media. i've been reporting with spending the accounts of the united russia parliamentary candidates. guinea coffee is also political talks on russian state television. it's not the 1st time of course, which has taken action against political figures in russia or in the bill and
9:20 pm
russia's borders as well. at the same time today, ross called, or the russian incident, regulator, says infinite and joint such as apple, google and others have failed to take into account their requests to block access in the country to certain websites, namely small voting websites. those records have come from the central election commission as well. now, just to remind a small voting was a voting strategy put forward by jail to opposition. figure lex in a valley and his team called the anti corruption foundation to unite to consolidate opposition. vote against the ruling united russia party system has been a wilson place for around 18 months and worked particularly well in moscow city elections. now the car was labeled firstly, a for agent by the russian ministry of justice. it was later and labelled and extremist, organization by moscow court. and it was liquidated, disbanded, now,
9:21 pm
we can speculate what exactly was said behind closed doors, masters meeting. the state department has not commented on these allegations. they've simply said john sullivan was there to discuss the range of bilateral issues that everything that the state department has said. it does seem for now though, the russian incident regulates roscoe nodes or deems tx on allowing access to certain sites such a small voting for money propagated by the cup as outright for interference in the russian electoral process in the russia electrons cycle. there's 9 days to go until elections, emotions of clarity begun to run high out. i think this will be the last we've had . we will hear rather about the topic of interference, the role of internet, joint social media and such related topics. let's see what happens over the next week. now, developing story for you here from western russia, a natural gas explosion ripped through an apartment building just before 1 am local time. at least one person was killed and 6 injured in the blast attributed to
9:22 pm
a gas leak up to 7 others are believed to have been trapped under the rubber as the 2 story building and a small town of yellow, partially collapsed rescue workers are on the scene and of course, will bring you the latest developments as they become available for exit took the european union by storm, but could for exit be next. a candidate for the french presidency is now calling on his country to seize back control and free itself from the clutches of the you. and it's a big name saying it to as r t is charlotte davinsky reports. he was the man that was leaving the charge. when it came to the brig negotiation, he was the man that was in charge of insuring a victory. you fool you. and during many years of breakfast, he was the man that kept saying you is the gold standard during those discussions you even accuse the u. k. you trying to cherry pick was it wouldn't seem from the
9:23 pm
you now mission volunteer is telling a very different story. something for the presidency, hearing from elections, take place in about a level and the things he is saying is shocking. many events in the south yesterday he talked about leaving out more fluid in europe. it was one to many is doing and when it came to migration and what he has to say, we cannot do all this without having regained our legal sovereignty. being permanently frightened by a ruling or a condemnation at the level of the european court of justice. so the european convention on human rights, or by an interpretation by our own judicial institutions, the reaction as i was in fact, some people were so shocked about these comments. they thought that this was fake news. how could someone like me? should vanya see such things, there is a junior european affairs mistake level. paul said that he couldn't believe that
9:24 pm
somebody who was truly committed to you will, will be able to say such things. others suggested the mission volunteer had essentially included the entire career. michelle bonnie: a is giving a master class on how to destroy your career and legacy in the desperate hope of looking electable. turn a left for that just straight up dislikes you regardless. well, bonia has defended his coming thing. the idea of a constitutional field would only apply when it comes european court on issues such as like gratian, his attempts to defend his comments seem to me things worse. you can only how briggs is she is, has been reacting to this. here just some of the comments. this is breathtaking. the hypocrisy the same. michel bonnie who doing the praxis negotiations taught to belittle the u. k for demanding control over our courts and our borders. now he wants the same for friends for exit. this is ironic in the extreme bonnie,
9:25 pm
a preaching the merits of national sovereignty to cub the overpower for e. u and european court of human rights. born is through feelings. it seems about the new and about european institutions couldn't have come at the worst climb to the book. at the moment, russell been trying to reach supremacy when it comes to issues of the poor countries such as hungary and poland. even seeing some questions being raised by germany constitutional court. and he's coming to from meetings to maybe to, to have more influence. when it comes to the european union to counterbalance influence of germany, doesn't suggest that the relationships within the block goes cosy. i think would have you believe which many will wonder if this does mean that there are troubled waters. how across the atlantic, us governors are threatening to sue the biden administration over its sweeping new vaccine requirements that could effect up to 100000000 americans. the president's
9:26 pm
expansive order means anyone working for or with the government will now need to have a cobit shot. i'm assigning the executive order that will now require all executive branch federal employees to be vaccinated off and i saw another executive order that will require federal contractors to do the same. if you want to work with the federal government to do business with us, get vaccinated. the bill effects around 2 thirds of the entire workforce from private sector employees to health care workers and federal contractors. employees have $75.00 days to get the shot or face disciplinary action, but labor unions have also hit out adding biden's move is not the answer. republican lawmakers warned that the president broken his own pledge on the issue. joe biden told americans when he was elected that he would not impose vaccine mandates. he lied. biden's vaccine mandate as an assault on private businesses,
9:27 pm
texas is already working to halt this power. grab the bite in administration's recent announcement, seeking to dictate personal freedom in private business decisions as an insult to our american principles of individual liberty and free enterprise president bindings. vaccination mandate is unlawful and american were committed to protecting montana's freedoms and liberties against this gross federal overreach. we heard from guests who told us that biden's ruling will backfire. barracka is always opposed to people who are independent thinkers, of people who want to be convinced that what they're asked to do is in fact what they agree that they all to do. and i think that there has been, despite whatever political party you're part of, or you support, there's been a very poor job on communicating and educating, leading up to the mobility of vaccines. and it's been since we saw that there were
9:28 pm
certain cohorts that were locked, vaccinated, withheld that we began to try and communicate. and now we've shifted to mode of mandating executive orders to sort of force people to have to be back. so they, that's not going to build trust. we all know that i must get on a bras back here. this is about it is not about us. when we want to do this, do what we normally do. tell your doctor, give the information your doctor, give him your the shot. let her doctor decide realizing that there is a vaccine and then asking yourself might think about personal and individual liberty for this. did i throw on my constitution? no. that would. the bottom line is, it's about freedom, it's about my choice. this is a vaccine against your work. it will be what will you, mandy, that to look, this is about what happened miss this, this, this angry, angry man. this is the only thing he's ever said, right?
9:29 pm
now he is facing, he isn't recall in terms of numbers because of a candidate. this seems to help him somewhat. an emotional vladimir putin has bid farewell to russia's emergencies, minister or former personal bodyguard who died trying to save a filmmaker after he fell into icy water. the president joined members of the guinea xena champs family at the funeral and described his death as an irreplaceable personal loss. they'll make her alexander melnik also lost his life the accident during arctic exercises near the city of nor else. then a check has post humorously been given the hero of russia award, the countries highest honor that's all for this hour. if you'd like more details on any of those new stories, you can always check out our website, r t dot com or follow up on your favorite social media platform. i'll be back with more in just about 30 minutes. so stay tuned.
9:30 pm
the for many of us, the end of the american war enough dennis and was inevitable in the end, the conflict was more about a massive grip than about nation building and smart, strategic thinking. jo bible says the us is done with we making foreign countries through the use of force. there is no reason to take the american president at his work the the, the, the the look we're in that war for 20.
