6:02 pm
the houses are indeed being swarmed. but u. s. media is referring to these homes as being the homes of ali. thereupon sca, however, what his representative has pointed out is, are not his homes. they are homes of his relatives and they are apparently being searched by the f b i. here's the information that we have obtained. it's true, the f b i's rating. the house is owned by a like the repost. his relatives, the rates are taking place under 2 court orders related to the u. s. sanctions. now, all of their a pasco, a billionaire, and businessman, and in 2018 he was put on the u. s. sanctions list in 2019. he filed a lawsuit against the office of foreign asset control, saying that he was unfairly targeted and put on that list. he should not be on that list. u. s. media has widely alleged that thereupon has a relationship with paul mana, 4 and individual associated with donald trump,

6:04 pm
a test the exchange in the european parliament, after the polish prime minister launched the tirade against you in the chickens accusing them of overstepping their powers and even blackmailing his country. nor to charlotte to ben sky can tell us more about the fiery doesn't go half the way of describing. some of the accusations that have been thrown there was mud slinging throughout this session at the european pol and by the polish payment is down also by m. p. 's right back at him. this was meant to be the opportunity for the polish prime minister to come to the european parliament to try and heal these divides these divisions between his country and the european union. his speech seemed to have done the exact opposite with emmy peas, accusing him of leading towards a gun, a government of totalitarianism, and undermining the e. u. its foundations itself now might have ad skis talked about some of the issues
6:05 pm
that you rip was facing. he refused to accept and said it was not right for emmy, please, to essentially blackmail other countries within the european union by threatening to withdraw to hold back their funds. and he said that the constitutional law in poland would remain supreme to that of e. you law and he said that the idea of changing that would move the you towards a fully fledged governor bal state, which is not what members signed up for. now during his speech, he was clearly overstaying his welcome when he was interrupted and told to wrap up version of that is yeah, yep, of in the bridge for the move armatures frame in the for 30. bravo. you have to come on the van? no shes so chairman, i was told by the office of david solider that i was a located at 3035 minutes. so i really was my time. i cannot confirm their success
6:06 pm
. and i think that certificate i see autopay have to go nothing completely i'm. i'm coming to my as i've done the service there, me please had plenty to say they said that the polish mp was slightly leading his country to leave the european union. one said they thought it was nigel for all she was talking at that session. while other emmy peas took the opportunity to congratulate the anti government protests that had been taking place in poland and suggesting perhaps if they should continue. i went to thank those polls who took to the streets who showed their faces to other poles. hundreds of thousands of them. real patriots took to the streets with national flags, crowd polish flags, and european flags in their hands. a patriot should not be a nationalist. we are all listened to your denials. but the truth is, your actions are
6:07 pm
a sly way to lead poland out of the union. unilateral eagle actions cannot be accepted and will have consequences, the sinister game that you're playing is very player. the sinister game is that you're putting upon the size, the constitutional court inside depaula, and better politicize those additional court is criticized by who, by the european court of justice during your speech. i was not sure if or worse, listening to your to nigel, fresh to what you have done is in fact putting an existential tract for your country. this is our road to exit. there is no room for alternative solutions. in other words, what you are proposing here and to day it's a constitutional brackson. the commission resident ursula vaughan delane wheat was demanded that she in the commission act immediately. emmy peas, called on her to reject the recovery funds for poland. they called on her and the
6:08 pm
commission to trigger the rule of law conditionality, mechanism v d l herself vaughan, de leon said that the commission would do everything to ensure that it protect european citizens from threats. we cannot, and we will not allow our common values to be put at risk. a commission will act and the options are all known. first, option on fingerprints, where we legally challenged the judgement of the polish constitutional court. another option is the conditionality, mechanism, and other financial tools. the polish government has to explain to us how it intends to protect your pin money given this ruling of they are constitutional court. this was supposed to be an opportunity to make amends, the eula rift, to bring poland back into the fold, the bosom of the e. u. what transpired was any thing, but that with amy piece,
6:09 pm
basically realizing and saying out loud that they don't accept the pass that poland is on. judging by the session on tuesday, it seems that those divisions between poland and the rest of the you are even deeper and wider. you as the fence circuitry dropped in to ukraine on tuesday and her vista se on proposed nato expansion to include key of no 3rd country has, has a veto over nato's membership decisions. ukraine has you heard me say earlier, has a right to decide its own future foreign policy and, and we expect that they will be able to do that without any outside interference.
6:10 pm
his words come in the wake of a dramatic spike intentions between russia, nato, moscow signal it's intend to pull the plug on its permanent mission to the block in brussels that will happen on november 1st. and those mission in the russian capital will also be close to the move is in direct response to the alliance earlier kicking. it's a number of russian diplomats for alleged spying. the kremlin, meanwhile, has described any ukrainian bed to join nato of unexpected re step 2 for he claims this session to nato would be the worst case scenario. this is the scenario that goes beyond the red lines of russia's national interests. this is the scenario that could force russia to take active measures to ensure its own security. while we spoke with a former senior security policy analyst in the office of the secretary of defense, michael maloof, who told me that talk of the a session is just another example of the u. s. trying to contain moscow. well,
6:11 pm
i think this is all part of a concerted action by the united states once again to, to wrap it up, pressure on, on moscow, basically to contain russia in its own sphere of influence. going back to 2008, when us was trying to push both georgia and ukraine into, into nato. but it was, it was, it was the membership itself of nato, which decided against such a move because of the concerns of moscow's reaction. for, for moscow, it's clear that such accession of border states would be a red line. every the feeling, the coven, just dragging on. well, the u. k. government's emergency crone of ours powers have just been extended for another half a year. it comes of the country recorded its highest daily corporate debt to since
6:12 pm
march, but also as protests increasingly take place against the vaccine. passports are correspondent in london. shabby edward's dusty, takes up the story for us. the house of commons has just waived through the government's flagship corona virus act of 2020 dots. the 350 page act, the emergency powers, as it swept through the government some time ago. introduce at the start of the pandemic. i will now continue for an additional 6 months, so it went through without even a vote. today it was expected that the parliamentary body would be holding a vote on all of this, but literally there was no opposition to it. so it was just swept through opposition, though, was on the streets of central london today. numerous protests is gathering all across central london fighting for their freedoms and their liberties, which they say this act actually denies them off. now i was there myself and for
6:13 pm
some hours there were numerous clashes with the police throughout the day. however, the most alarming incident on the streets has to be when the cabinet, minnesota michael. gov was accosted by these protest as they cornered him, pounced on the him, essentially accusing him of all sorts of things throughout at the pandemic. it was then that please, i'll shoot him into a nearby building the department for transport right here in westminster, offering him that much needed protection. ah, ah, ah, ah, essentially these activists today say there is no need for these emergency powers that basically allow the government to keep its unprecedented powers in place. interestingly though. 6 that there wasn't any opposition to it in the house of commons, especially from the labor party whose job is to oppose the government. in fact,
6:14 pm
we saw a total u. 10 from labor's shot. our house secretary said john ashworth, who said to day, we do not oppose the renewal of this act. but just at the thought of the pandemic. some 20 months ago, he described this act as the most coney, an ever seen. and peace time britain has never been subject to any robust scrutiny in parliament, of course being swept through today again, really dodging any scrutiny whatsoever. so what really are we talking about then while they were going to do some 20 months ago, as i say last spring, originally i to give powers to the government to enforce the locked down rules. but now it's somewhat adopted into many other facets of life. as of course, lockdown is now many a thing of the past today. it's more about things like police powers, of course, issue of mosse, and also things like the mass vaccination rollout. that is still very much underway, although it's now moved to the under 18 year old class. things like the vaccination passport could very much become a reality. however,
6:15 pm
all of this comes in the context of the united kingdom. it has reported its highest number of kind of a death for 7 months and cases, a really going back to the level they were some months ago. of course. winter is only round the corner, meaning the pandemic could again return to the things that we've seen in the past. so all of that in context is potentially why extending these emergency powers is justified for the government. the author of a bombshell dossier on the ledge, trump, russia collusion, is standing by his claims while also admitting they're not 100 percent true from a pretty spike. christopher still has spoken publicly on his findings for the 1st time. now the document was compiled in 2016, contain details allegations of a conspiracy between trump's associates and the kremlin. there were also some saucy details about donald trump, supposedly escapades in moscow hotel room. none of those allegations have been
6:16 pm
proven. the f b i later published heavily reductive pages showing the agency had paid steel for his work, but cut him off as a source after he disclosed his us intelligence links to a 3rd party. so years later, there are still many on answered questions regarding the steel dossier, not least how it came into be. those are senior correspondent, murat garcia, reports the steel dossier has been one of the most mocked derided but, but also talked about reports in modern political history. the spot being mostly dismissed as, as a work of fiction. it has just refused to die. and christopher steel is back again . hyping and defending. he's much maligned dossier. christopher still isn't. it isn't hero, is he, traitor, prefer steals a guy who picked to fight with 2 presidents, donald trump and vladimir,
6:17 pm
and he's live to tell the tale, mind the spoilers. there aren't any new revelations or poverty details. as with the 1st dossier in a vis tom, chris tries to defend the dossier the multiple falsehoods and inaccurate season make believe. my li tries. i'm prepared to accept that not everything in the dosier is 100 percent accurate. i've yet to be convinced that that is one of them. yes, he says there are some things that my daughter that are literally made up, but he sticks. it seems by the p tape. his allegation that the russians film donald trump with urinating prostitutes. and he has a stella argument to back it up, prove me wrong. he says, you tell him that no one's ever seen the staple heard of it and that he's the only source ad. well, that doesn't convince chris,
6:18 pm
it hasn't needed to be released because i think the russians felt they'd got pretty good value out of donald trump when he was president of the us. the most remarkable thing in my opinion, is what still dossier supporters. a saying they can't defend the dos hair itself, it's at so full of holes and lies. so they've come up with a different method. it was the russians who painted the dossier by purposefully feeding christopher steele. this information, it's very likely that the russians planted this information in and demand other information that may have been truthful because that's exactly again the way that they operate. the victims of christopher steals reporting have also reacted michael cohen, who the dossier accused of secret meetings with a russians in europe. he had the f. b, i get involved. of course, they found no evidence of any such meetings ever taking place,
6:19 pm
but regardless mister co indeed react. he said that he was pleased that christopher steele had crawled out of the pop just long enough to make up a few more stories. i'm not too sure that everyone is as please abs chris. the once was quite enough. there's nothing groundbreaking in of course he's being, he's being interviewed by a very sympathetic, quote unquote journalist 3rd stephanopoulos has been an operative for bill clinton in the democratic party for a long time. although looking at the mainstream coverage, this sort of rehabilitation of christopher steel seems to be seems to be coming around. you have to scratch our has even the f b. i stopped using him as a confidential human in form of because i found that he was too unreliable. i think one very important aspect is the collusion of the u. s. mainstream media in this they absolutely fell down their jobs were expected. someone like steal to be a liar. we expected the people that hired him to be pretty dodgy people. of course, that's the case. but we did, we, at least once, would expect. i would have expected the u. s. mainstream media,
6:20 pm
u. s. media to have looked into some of the stories before reporting them as if they were fact. ok, let's wrap up now on a special note. this year russia commemorates the 80th anniversary of one of the most tragic days in its history. when the city of letting grub no notice and petersburg was besieged by nazi troops, the brittle siege lasted for nearly 900 days and claimed the lives of over a 1000000 soviet people and soldiers. r t creative team. taking a look at the tragedy through the eyes of children. good bye. and thanks for watching. oh um mm
6:21 pm
ah ah, ah ah, it's 300000 children were evacuated from leningrad in the 2 months softer will began in the soviet union. however, the majority of children remained in the city, parents feared evacuating that children. nazi planes heavily bombed trains leaving leningrad, including those evacuating children. it was estimated that up to $160000.00

6:24 pm
with children in besieged leningrad, new little else, but starvation and cold. they grew up to the whistle of shells and booms of explosions, ortho alexander fuzzy if recalls in lin, graduating the siege. i saw the faces of children full of such maturity. i saw children's eyes filled with such thought and sadness. these faces and eyes say much more than all the stories about the horrors of starvation.

6:27 pm
spectacular fireworks on january 27th. 1944, marking the liberation of leningrad find placed in many kids drawings as bright clusters of multi colored stars. one child of besieged leningrad, volva. his new coff. later recalls this night in his memoirs, it was winter. everybody gathered up the peter and paul fortress eagerly waiting for the 2nd when leningrad would go up and fireworks suddenly volley fire shook the air. multi colored rockets took off into the sky. there were so many rockets that it was impossible to see which one was more beautiful. the siege of leningrad law stood for $872.00 days.
6:29 pm
in ah, don't look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such order to conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence at the point, obviously is to create trust rather than fear a very job with artificial intelligence. real. somebody with
6:30 pm
a robot must protect its own existence with a, [000:00:00;00] with a thing. why do you burn down the community? why do you harm down your own neighborhood? it's not our, we don't own anything. we don't own anything. there's a social contract that we all have. but if you feel i feel, then the person who is the authority comes in and they fix the situation with a partner who picks is that the to wait and it's not
