oh, lady that lives over there has walked in one of the gods. this is where are you, where again, where are you staying with nothing. i take it off it. i think the people need to take responsibility into their own and be prepared if those kinds of weapons were less available. we wouldn't have a lot of the shootings. we certainly wouldn't have the number address with the head of nate, so vows to keep expanding the western military alliance starting yet more countries near russia. in spite of protests from moscow to a head on the program, news network, cnn fire is a producer. after he's charged with sexually abusing children, questions are not being asked as to why he was on the loose 18 months after a criminal complaint was 1st filed. a new study finds that the visions and

u. s. society could be reaching a tipping point with sudden democrats fearing a repeat of the violence in earlier this year and capitol hill, but on a larger scale. and our global concerns spread over the all me, cronin cobit variant, the w h o europe director, it tells r t, it's vital to deliver vaccines where they're needed, including rushes, but nick shops, health, including vaccines, go beyond politics. we should never take into account the country both audited. ah oh, from moscow to the world. this is our t. my name's you know, neil, let's get straight to our top story. this thursday. the secretary general of nato has said there can be no compromise on expounding the trans atlantic defense. a

lion's, that's the spite calls from president putin, for guarantees, but later will not new members near or on russia's board or charlotte to ben ski takes up the story for us quite a lot to digest from that press conference with the nato secretary general. but he talked about what he sees is being patton of aggression coming from russia. and he said nito will continue to do all it's necessary to ensure that the rights of its allies, its members, are protected. but nature support in his opinion, does not mean that it's a threat to russia recently, north macedonia, and also montenegro have both been accepted into the nato, a life that is despite protests from the russian government about that. let's have a listen to what else yen stilton burke had to say. nato has proven over the last years that are open door policy is not only something we are support

in words, but those in deeds parted by inviting to new countries. montenegro north muscle. now to become a member, so we have enlarged the line so that all spheres with 2 new members, despite protests from, from russia. and also we are supporting ukraine in ukraine's efforts to come closer to natal membership. so he went on to talk about what he sees as russia substantial and military and build up all the border areas with ukraine. and he said that that build up is a provocation. and that it could destabilize europe as well as rushes point of view . it has repeatedly denied that there is any intention or any build up that is looking to invade into ukraine. we know that russia's foreign ministry spokesperson

has slammed this sort of talk. and she said that such statements just will not help deescalate tensions in the region. if a tional laws, this is it is information campaign, the aims to create. firstly, the image of russia is an aggressor. secondly, additional tashing of the region, including the black sea, the russia crane border, and se ukraine. this will not bring stability and security either in international relations or the regional janda, what it will undoubtedly complicate everything. meanwhile, journalists, primarily of course western joyce, freely use the word aggressor, referring to our country. what right do they have to do this? i trait understand this every time. when was the last time rush attacked, anyone? people need to pick up the screen with arguments. and how many times have native countries attacked sovereign states in the last 20 years. how many special operations were carried out by the nato countries? kenny show me something, im close to that from the russian site. no, there is nothing. you need to figure out where there are facts and where there is

propaganda. now it's not just russia that saying, look, we north intending to invade ukraine. we're also hearing similar views from some of europe, sleet, as for example, the prime minister of italy. this is mary a druggie, a said that he's been talking to president putin over the last few weeks and months and as far as he's concerned invading ukraine, this idea isn't based on any fact. we've also heard warnings from the french president about this kind of talk, a hoax. who is suggesting that this war is brewing between russia and ukraine and could pull in other countries as well. president mack, on saying at such talk doesn't help and actually could end up being a self fulfilling prophecy. lie spoke with former pentagon security analyst, michael maloof. he thinks the aggressive remarks coming from nate or being guided by washington. stoke bird, i think,

has to look out for nato interests and he's not going to try to at this point to try to, ah, discourage ukraine. and because native, because nato wants to do more military exercises than i think stolen bergen, nato generally is under so very serious pressure behind the scenes from the biden administration in pushing that narrative and is in their interest to push nato it up to the border for containment purposes of russia proper, the united states is coming half way around the world to, to assert this kind of action. when you have moscow, i alarmed by the activity assertiveness by ukraine and native, generally and, and thereby they have every right to to arm their, their western flight. as far as i'm concerned, memory risk can moving the program will know

a c n n producer has been charged with sex crimes involving young girls by the rival news. i to let us find a criminal complaint involving the mandated from last year suggesting that law enforcement knew about his alleged activities well before they made on arrest. for more on this, let's go live now to r t, scale them up and in new york kilobit. some truly horrifying details in, at this story, those alleged crimes. what do we know so far? well, john griffin, who was a long time producer at c, n. n. has essentially been charged with the crime of attempting to engage minors in unlawful sexual activity. very serious crime now they didn't start. it's in stark events that it appears that there has been 18 months. we now understand he has been charged and arrested, but that was 18 months ago. the original complaint was filed. i guess what happened

is there was an adoptive mother who took her daughter to meet with griffin. and under the agreement that she would perform sexual acts with him after she received $3500.00 in payment from the cnn producer over the app known as venmo. now, the adoptive mother was arrested in august of 2020. and at that point, the police seized her various electronic devices. now, sienna has come forward and they have said they knew nothing about griffin's alleged activities. and furthermore, that no electronic devices belonging to cnn were seized when the, the investigation began. this is what was said. prior to his arrest and indictment, we had no knowledge about the case. now, why did the f b, i not immediately arrest griffin when they had electronic devices and evidence of

him engaging in this potential sexual activity with a minor the f. b. i's statement on the matter is not exactly clear leaves a lot to be desired. here's what was said. the allegations are deeply disturbing. the f. b i, along with our law enforcement partners, will continue to aggressively investigate those who victimized the most vulnerable in our communities. now the details of what is alleged in the charges that have been filed and the statement from the us attorney's office are quite harowick. it is reported that john griffin apparently tried to get women and under age girls to engage in what he referred to as training sessions. griffin sought persuade parents to allow him to train their daughters to be sexually submissive. the mother and child flew to boston in july of 2020, where griffin picked them up in his tesla and drove them to his ludlow house. at

the house, the torso was directed to engage in and did engage in unlawful sexual activity. now griffin is now arrested in custody. waiting trial in vermont. you're charged on 3 counts of sex trafficking miners, if convicted, he could face life in prison. ah, now this raises questions as to why when the initial seizing of the electronic devices and the initial criminal complaint was filed in august of 2020. why it has waited this long for john griffin to be arrested in charge. what exactly is happening here? the, the chain of events is not exactly clear, quite a harrowing accusation made against this long time cnn producer will be waiting to find out more. not clear messages from cnn, not clear messages from the f b. i about what exactly is going on here? a lot of questions need to be answered. kayla, thanks very much for taking this all through. the sar teeth killed me up and in new

york. or we have written to the f b, i requesting us statements on the revelations made by fox news relating to the case let you know if we get a response an irreversible divide. that's the point. the american society is reaching according to a new academic study. and it's at a tipping point. if polarization is to extreme, people become divided even on the shock. if she, if we reach that point, we cannot unites, even in the face of war, climate change pandemic, or the challenges to the survival of all society. go earlier, former pennsylvania state senator bruce marx, join my colleague, re sushi here in the studio to share his perspective on the growing rift and american politics. the nbc accomodate of nbc was saying he said there was 30000000 people right now. ready to take off palms to for donald trump, back in the office. that's somewhere between 20 and 30000000 people. that's

a mass movement in america, in favor of political violence, which is a new thing. does that sound accurate to you? well, i don't think that you're gonna see anybody taking up arms in the literal sense of, you know, having, you know, weapons. but i think that maybe there's a 120000000 or 130000000, or maybe more people who be willing to vote for donald trump. we had the tobacco in afghanistan, which was poorly handled in and maybe united states look weak on the international platform where they didn't get the americans out before the troops, laughter. that's number one. and number 2, with all of the spending that were happening because of these, you know, bills that the democrats just wanna throw money at. we, we, for the 1st time, i mean, in a long time, we have inflation so that, sorry, this is, this is not just the media fear mongering about inflation in america. because we've been reporting that it's nearly at a full decade, high inflation in the united states. it's just about everything across the board now is more expensive than it was even just a year ago. is that, is that true?

what's absolutely it's, it's absolutely true. i'm just, i grew up in the 70 so i can remember when we had inflation, then we really haven't had inflation since i'd say that's the late 1980 s has been fairly stable. absolutely. you go to you, listen, you can't fully american public. we have the whole problem, you know, with the transport and getting goods, goods into the country. i wanted to ask you just briefly, going back to biden's approval ratings and the inflation crisis. cove id, afghanistan, the list goes on and yet he says, he says the following about mid times have a quick listen to this. if you would in 2021 as a unified democratic party for unified that ever. now we look at 2020. do i want to tell my republican friends get ready bell? you're going in for a problem. he seems certainly out made and optimistic. the how do you think is ratings right now will affect the mit tons. i think they've already infected the elections, the united states. we had a republican when governor and virginia completely unexpected. ah,

and that was in part because of the lack of popularity of president biden. it's typical that the party that's out of power does well in the mid years, but with biden. and his lack of popularity is really even his inability to campaign could didn't even campaign for himself when he was running for president. i don't think that we're going to see him going around the country and supporting very many democrat candidates. and republicans, i think you're gonna feel the very good slate of a of candidates the u. k has reported a record covered serge with 88000 cases registered in the past 24 hours. testings being ramped up and made fears over then you all may chrome strain. it's so far been registered in 77 countries. but despite the rapid spread, early studies from south africa and hong kong suggest ami chrome is less likely to call severe illness them the delta variant, very few debts have been linked to the new string to. nevertheless,

countries worldwide are ramping up. their vaccine campaigns are correspondent, ilia katrinka santa with a w, a chose regional director for europe. hans kluge to talk that and more how much more do we know about our micron? at this point? we know much more and we have to tours and about, or michel it's to, it's the latest valiant. it's spreading much more faster, but i always tell we're not in the business of fighting one variant when the business of fighting all variance and stu, delta is dominant. what we need to do is to implement what they call fife, on the mic stabilizers number one, increase vaccination coverage. number 2, boost boost, boost number city. double. the number of people varying marks. endorse number 4, ventilate, particularly in classrooms. keep the schools open and fife,

implement new treatment protocols. how valid are the concerns that vaccines might prove ineffective against on the chron where we know as of to date, that vaccines are still effective. for the 1st or the 2nd dose may be little bit less, but it recovers with a cert dosed well on the european union. specifically, we've seen a range of different approaches. why aren't we seeing a more uniformity from the block? in particular, the uniform has been growing over time, but i think the point that it's still really aleck off uniformity with a cold political here it is and it's confuses the people. that's why dublin was advocating to establish a bung european health senate council at the high level to half uniformed in policy, but ultimately still health is a national competency. it's a decision by the country. speaking of sputnik v, a r t, we've heard from

a number of experts that the issue has been politicized. is that true anyhow? house including vaccines. go beyond politics. we should never take into account the country of origin. i shared the optimism of the present or direction for the nation that this dub ritual emergency use listing for sputnik really there soon. the w h o is hands close to r t. while germany's government is facing a furious backlash against plans for mandatory would vaccines on tough new restrictions as well as cities including munich, have seen maps and wrist. unofficial and resident has received death threats or europe correspondent peter oliver reporter. not munich was the latest city in germany to see demonstrations by anti vax groups, as well as those that are opposed to the measures that have been put in place to try and stop the spread of coven 19 the place. there are 4000 people,

turned up at the demonstration improv area. it was all relatively peaceful until a group of around $4.00 to $500.00 of them decided they were going to go to march around the city that resulted in some captain. mouse with the police said, bit of pushing and shoving and ultimately according to the place 28 arrests being made. they ranged from people refusing to wear masks to those that had assaulted police officers. what we have seen at these type of demonstrations though, is an increase in the, the speed at which it, and choose and the amounts of people who are getting involved in violence, ah, ah, when we're talking about these demonstrations, they are groups that serve anti vaccine as a said also opposed to those covert measures, but a lot of them,

a lumped under the umbrella of a group called the lateral think is now they have be roundly marked a here in germany, in society as well as on t v. in satirical tv programs and, and elsewhere, but things have taken a much darker turn. in fact, on wednesday morning, door rates were carried out across the state of saxony in the east of germany. in connection with a plot to assassinate the, the leader of the government of the state of saxony. that's michael coachman also to launch attacks against for the politicians in that state. now saxony has some of the lowest rates of vaccination in germany. it also has some of the highest rates of covert infection as well, while following those rates. 5 men and one woman were taken into custody. what it's seen is a number of politicians turning on the messaging application telegram with them, saying that it was all that messaging application that this type of,

of plot was able to be finessed and, and the message being spread. they are extremely dangerous because they're not, i me talking, chatting and inciting each other, but also taking action very worth while pointing out. they seem lateral thing because the anti vaccines, the m div, anti coven measure people are a small percentage of the population than leave those at lodge. what we have seen is a large number of people coming forward for vaccinations. here in germany. in fact, on wednesday, they broke records with 1500000 jobs being handed out across the whole of the country. now 1300000 of those were booster vaccines. what we have those the read the rest, were i the 1st or 2nd doses? oh vaccine now what we have is about 70 percent of the population fully vaccinated, but there is a group of around 20 percent of the population that are vehemently anti vaccine here in germany. and they just so absolutely no interest in guessing that vaccine

whatsoever. in fact, that's why we've seen or laughed sholtes, the german chancellor talking about the possibilities of potentially in the future . seeing mandatory vaccination countries like austria on greece have already said that from next year they will be implementing mandatory vaccination. it's still at the discussion phase here. in germany though, our sister channel in germany r t d has been taken off you tube that comes on the. busy day it launched its 1st televised broadcast in the country. the reason given for the bond is not r t d ease. previous youtube account was removed. and apparently the owner of any block channel is forbidden from starting a new. however, our td's new channel actually has a different owner. and in any case, you can always watch the brand new channel d dot r t t dot com. we got the load out on one full bit today from one of the

stations heads. ocoee denton has been terminated by you forward you to code violation of the times of the fact that you've got to complain that auntie denton has documented some technical safety measures. this means, according to that claim into your channel is terminated. you may be unable to use or create any child at all to your center. was the latest addition to somebody on youtube that includes dozens of channels. it was set out by the bouncing company about tea, and there could be novice, in most cases, i'm confused by a team of educators. i didn't have no relation to our t t e channel that was terminated in september. i did talk technically because the channel that was deleted in september was owned by a different company, all tv productions. it also was mentioning that at the time of termination, asi di channel had some 600000 followers,

and i got 540000000 views. but despite the huge, a boner sister, german shell is now up and running ortiz, the armstrong looks at one other obstacles. it's hard to overcome. to get on there . the journey so launched a has been the usual track through pressure and passive aggression from the self appointed defenders of democracy, e rival, gym, and media. it's bad enough that putin's voice sounds out across the internet, if it were not for one reliable german meteor outlet. dest spiegel kremlin owned outlets would dominate the german digital information space. in both the number of articles published in social engagement received. there is reason to believe that most of the traffic on our tea channels is real and not acquired through purchased fake profiles. the thinly veiled disdain from rival gym and media outlets have come in a form of gallant cries to stop the so called moscow mouthpiece. and kremlin back putin

propaganda, of course, that has nothing to do with our t deutsche. his popularity on a string of social media, where they consistently rank among the top most viewed channels as regards news and politics. ah, it wasn't just rival outlets that ran. so the, his theory over r t deutsch, his rise through the media rankings. politicians got personal and launched attacks on arte employees, framing them as perpetrators of this information. and d, stabilizing democracy. those who work for asi have said good bye to critical and

independent journalism. and whether they want it or not oxy employees are part of the destabilization of democracy. this is not about the approval of a profane entertainment channel, but about e u wide access for putin propaganda and targeted dis information under the guise of alternative journalism. and what goes up must come down r t toich. his assent was yanked back down to earth. when you chew band, the channel from is platform with it, wiping out 600000 and subscribers. now, despite rumors that the pan was barely impact, former chancellor anglo miracle denied that germany had influence you chief's decision. as for r t, germany did not put any pressure on brussels or the decisions it made in germany. neither the federal government nor the state governments engaging meadows like that . so this fight will, the people's best efforts are t deutsch is primed and ready for action. launching on air and launching a fresh assault on those old ratings and views,

rankings. mainstream media beware the lawyer for a russian national who has been found guilty of murdering a chechen man in berlin. bunk in 2019 believes the verdict lacks any solid evidence in an exclusive interview authority. he said, the court relied on highly questionable sources. the problem it is, i mean the problem with this investigation is that it's partly based on sources, which in our view, from the point of view of defense and not credible thesis belin katanen documents from ukraine. and witnesses who gave conflicting testimonies and colds with belling . cat is it business project that focuses on questionable russian stories and serious crimes down there, getting donations and financial help to do that. and which is why we believe that belling cat does not produce independent mutual journalism. on the contrary, as a clear aim, and there are assumptions that is still in need of evidence from all points of view, with evidence from belin cat is unreliable,

gabana for rick. and the judge also said while sentencing that there's no direct evidence that it was an order from russia. they relied on clues that from all points of view were insufficient for this ruling stance. joseph was all, i think that the existence of contract was not established. and there's no evidence from that. that's why i believe, at least during the hearings in the evaluation of evidence that such participation from russia wasn't revealed. but the court decided differently, the thought back in 2014 russia put out an international law for classical interpol . i believe this confirms that he's not an agent of the russian secret services as these aren't usually puts on international wanted las where will that private details that i vote was meant as the victim was gone down in a park in broad daylight in berlin. back in 2019 zone can, can gush valley was a wanted terrorist in russia. he had asylum stayed as in germany. but moscow wanted to put him on trial for the deaths of around a 100 people in southern russia. he was also suspected of being involved in

a series of suicide bombings on the moscow metro in 2010 after the court sentenced the russian national to life in prison for murder on rule that he was acting on behalf of moscow. berlin also expelled to russian diplomats on wednesday fronting warnings of a retaliation. the kremlin denies any involvement in the killing of the russian ambassador to germany as described berlins actions as politically motivated. we also heard from british politician george galloway. he thinks diplomatic expulsions are a dangerous step in relations between berlin on moscow. it's very dismal is potentially very dangerous. and we must hope that cool our heads prevail. it struck me as being so obvious a blind man could see it. an international lynch, mol, seeking to convict, without evidence,

and execute the russian state for anything that happens anywhere on their territory. and i'm sure about russia will respond. it needs to show that it will not be kicked around any more. this is not the yeltsin period where rushes lying drunk on the ground, having its pocket picked up, put on, has made russia really something again, any, i'm sure we'll want to show, but just coming up to half past 10 here in moscow. that's where we leave it for now, but more great programs get there. start in mere moments. nicholas. ah. 0 one or 2. yeah, jeremy, you must. it is so delicate and as you want to talk to stand together,

we'll continue to stand together against russia. 80 in germany, complete some of the errors that we doubtless made say no to civilians as chunky daughter subaru, village influence other nations, french, u. k. and even latin america and other countries in future than maybe they were to high rum walk. cycle alone with members of your household, please, please, please, please. we are to continue to fight. don't go, don't you just need to. to do it. russia must not be allowed in germany. i've already out few common leave. it's so short. so d in l t the innovation the 5 and the yes dr. a indian ha, the in office mrs. gunter 2 sons.
