are relevant you how we experience, reward and pleasure while listening to some people looking this is a kind of music is a kind of choreographing of our expectations. lou with an exclusive interview with our t rush, his foreign minister says moscow will react to a flagrant attempt by berlin to block our t. u. german language channel that ought to europe's leading satellite provider removes it at the request of the country's media regulated with weak hello tolerated any longer. and we believe is unacceptable. situation will go on. we will have to respond to it or target leverage. there also questions the impartiality of the ongoing trial into the, the owning of flight and age 17 in east and ukraine. in 2014,
8:01 am
prosecutors are demanding life sentences for the suspects, including 3 russian nationals and around rages within the us democratic party. after one of its own sentences, effectively torpedoes, jo biden's, lavish infrastructure bill in the senate. we look at why it's feeling a crisis of confidence among democrats. ah, hello the welcome, just turn for pm in moscow. you watching asi international. now the russian foreign minister target lovegrove has given artie an exclusive live interview, which he touched upon a range of key world issues. ah, what one of the main points mister love for of disgust was the removal of our
8:02 am
german language channel r t d from europe's main satellite network provider. it happened just moments before the interview and the moved came at the request of germany's media regulator . mr. roth slammed the action though against the channel, which only began broadcasting last week or more, and that it was an acceptable behavior on the part of berlin, and that there will be consequences when oscar national just the was nicole, we have been sentenced to respond similarly. but until recent times, we were convinced that we do not want to follow the same path and tried to put pressure on media to follow suit with our western partners. but you know the same thing with russian security. we cannot tolerate it any longer. and we believe of this unacceptable situation will go on. we'll have to respond to it for the much of a, some context here r t d has faced the barrage of resistance and allegations since it launch last thursday is the case of not having the necessary documentation to broadcast in
8:03 am
germany. although party management insist sits license was obtained in accordance with all european laws and regulations. the new channel was also taken off. the chief, the very day was launch. technically, there is no connection between that though, and the german t v broadcast dispute. although at the time an official for a german media watchdog said that the new channel would be taken care of. this is our t statement in response to the latest squeeze. to day the german regulator forced european settlers service util sat 9 to remove the broadcast of our when you moscow bays german language channel, artie deutsch from its platform. it is an appropriate for the german regulator. m a b b to overreach and ignore the european convention or trans frontier television under which it is subject, thereby forcing years or sat to remove artie deutsch from the carrier solely due to the unsubstantiated and factually flawed claims of the german regulator. we believe
8:04 am
this amounts to legal pressure and our confident this action will be, are addressed by the courts. we will be seeking all possible remedies against the german regulator and our audience can continue to access our content across multiple platforms and online. there isn't it happening is because nobody wants competition and we obviously are getting more and more popular. and the, the online service that we had in germany was phenomenal. if successful, i should say. and naturally, no one likes competition. that's fair. i mean, we all want to compete, well, trying to compete, trying to win our orders. the problem is that we want to do it perfectly legally. and we are absolutely sure. and we consulted with our international lawyers that everything we have don was exactly according to the existing laws and regulations. each new channel is getting more and more resistance, which is almost like getting
8:05 am
a metal. because that means we are getting more and more successful. they see, see us as more and more of a competition. of course, they claim something which is totally ridiculous that this is not being produced here in moscow. but you know, that's been user room is right across across the corridor. you know, the newsroom is here in the studios here. and the broadcasting facilities here, and the german regulator is trying to persuade us, this is all fictitious. we are available to him. many other options. i don't want to name them all, but there are, there was a number of options for people who want to know the alternative news. and sometimes what we believe is a more accurate version of many events and then what they get from the german mainstream media. we will fight legally, and i'm quite sure that we will get the possibility to bring our version of events, which is 2, legitimate to which we are totally entitled to our viewers in germany,
8:06 am
as well as in all other countries as well as trotting the plan that we've used was not a plan a unfortunately we are not able to use the plan a that we use the plan be that we didn't to work to. and we are going to dispute that in a court of law with another country. so now we're going to plan d and plan e. we have many of them, but one thing is certain people who want to know the different side and want to know the events of the truth that is not being brought by some mainstream german media. have the possibility to do that to do that, and we'll try to help them as much as we can. what area hi spoke to political and this chris boundary about this. and he does thing that they removal does illustrate german bias against the whole art network. from the very beginning, every obstacle has been made to stop onto deutsch operating. you could have
8:07 am
problems that bank code be banned from youtube. i know it being removed from utah status and were popular platform in germany and much of eastern eastern europe. there's going to be a lot of pressure from german. really circle is not the government to try and keep the station of the reason being, i think was what it is they don't want to approach the news, the broadcast in germany. and obviously i trauma of the german population who are very keen to get a different version of the news, what they're being paid by the mainstream media in job. if we're going to go down the road of shutting down operators because of they are putting forward a point of view, we will disagree. all you're going to start to some of bias. there's going to be very few television stations. we're going to be able to watch all the shots are apart from ortiz, gym, and channel being cut off from the european satellite network. much attention was also devoted to the escalating tensions between russia and nato. slab. ross says
8:08 am
that moscow has lost his trust in the west, thus that he will yet on the among the will. they've lied to us on a regular basis from oral pledges even political obligations enshrined in the russia, nato political act. so this time, as president putin said, we won't have legally binding guarantees. at the same time, we understand that the west can violate such guarantees as well. if it wants to shoot guns, it was a very in depth interview. i'm here in the very studio where a to play, so beats in a slightly reduced format. mr. arbor of covered a real her spectrum of salient international topics of the day, from the presence of foreign troops, u. s. troops in syria to the ongoing nuclear negotiations in iran at the main focal point. now, as we said, was that escalation, the ongoing crisis on the roches chrome border on that's been very much a focal point of much west to media. those allegations of thousands of russian troops massing on the ukraine border allegations leveled moscow that this is in
8:09 am
preparation for some sort of intervention or conflict. miss lover was very clear to say that this is not something that moscow that seeks or wants so that russia moscow wants these issues to be resolved through daughter gone through the strengthening or wins national institutions, such as the un and other organizations. and he really warned against the danger all the return or ra, returning towards a might, is right balance of power in the world. the insisting that dialogue is key and not just dollars, but also putting any sort of agreements. and he's sort of dialogues in writing, in some sort of legal framework, and that was something missed the level of focus on very much. and when we touched upon the expansion of nato eastwood's nest, another offer mentioned that to russia. moscow does see the presence of nato military nato military. the expansion went to eastwards as a threat to its security. and the west has to understand that that is the topic of
8:10 am
concern for russia and on a compromise has to be reached. if the relation is to happen, but it was it the silly global celeste to prove the heads of states and governments have clearly states that no participants of the o s. c, e should insure the security by damaging security of others. so an un stalsen berg made this high brow and arrogant statement that no one can breach the principle the washington treaty in accordance with which doors are open for any candidate wishing to accede to nato, we can say that we are not party to this organization. we have not signed this treaty, but we have signed a broader pan regional euro atlantic document that includes the principle of indivisible security. and if you installed some burg, believe the nato members can ignore this principle that is enshrined in their documents, adopt the highest level, then perhaps it is indeed time for him to get a different job because he does not perform his functions very well. he called for the formalization within the legal framework to prevent that expanse in east woods . and that a recent discussions had been actually quite positive that washington had listened
8:11 am
to moscow as concerns. and at least a dialogue was happening. so at least that something positive to take away from these tensions which have been rising over the last few weeks than hawkins, i will prosecute is meanwhile in the netherlands, have ended their arguments in the case of malaysian airlines flight and age. 17 dando, the east in ukraine, in 2014 killing, all 298 people on board. they are demanding life sentences for the for suspects including 3 russian nationals, while rushes for ministers. once again, voiced moscow's concerns about bias in the investigation. just move new more to the seduce a flood system. we're closely following the case because it's about russian citizens who are defendants. at this stage of the trial, we're surely can see the attempt to create an impression that it's a problem of the state rather than a criminal case, that is completely unacceptable. it should be considered a criminal process, was 7 and a half years on after
8:12 am
a trial that has seeped with politics for its duration of prosecutors have arrived at their version of events. they have now put forward charges against the full suspects that they believe are responsible. 3 of them, russian citizens, one of them are ukranian citizen. only one of them was represented in court by the way, by my lawyers. but this is, this is a trial that had an agenda from the onset, and this is something that multiple states have said including malaysia, which is for years has said that, that they were excluded from the trial because they weren't on board with the agenda. they said that early on the, there was a very, very clear, very clear angle to the investigation to the trial. and that was to, to blame, rush to shove all responsibility on russia. and now they were arrived at the conclusion that these 4 suspects were responsible for, shooting down and made 17,
8:13 am
with a book, a missile that was supplied from abroad. they for it, we demanded the suspects are convicted each individual, even a joint shooting down of an aircraft which caused the death and murder of all $298.00 people on board to life in prison. even if the suspects did not intend the consequences of their actions, those consequences still count for their sentence. thank how they arrived. this conclusion is a story in the end of itself, because there has been a lot of outrage about some of the evidence that they have taken. taken on board. look, they've, they included from the onset ukraine was included in investigation invited, or to the joint investigative team despite the fact that ukraine itself was at, at the time, a suspect. and a large part of the case is built on testimony from ukraine, which includes audio recordings provided by ukraine, secret services, or audio recordings of the alleged suspects. apparently talking about the jet again
8:14 am
from the onset they was suspected of being manipulated. the recordings, multiple forensic experts came out to say the same thing that they were doctor, they were edited and words were put in place and moved, moved around. but again, ukraine's evidence was taken on board by a slew of evidence for provided from her from other sources, wasn't again, the case was built much her testimony from social media post. the witnesses were but kept secret their identities anonymous. there was also the fact that for years now, the quote that j i t joint investigative team have asked the united states to provide an absolutely crucial piece of evidence. and that is satellite footage for from the area from the day. the incident took place to make sure that there was that there was this book miss out launcher on site. the united states for years now has
8:15 am
refused multiple times to provide those satellite shots of full for the investigation. and was also an incident in which dutch m. p. 's themselves will have flabbergasted, after reading a report that says ukraine couldn't have known, there was a threat to civilian aircraft in the area, despite the fact that just days earlier, a ukrainian military play was shot down. the last of about a dozen in the area. i at hides that were, that were dangerous for civilian aircraft, so passenger jet. and these combined with all the evidence that was rejected by the, by the prosecutors has led many to believe that indeed there was bias a groom new college through. there are large number of discrepancies, impartial, judicial process, rule violations, examination of when his bridges witness is a classified, including the one who could bring facts, ignored by the investigation to light. the fact that the defense attorneys request
8:16 am
has been rejected without any explanation says a lot. they also ignored the amazon takes parents which proved that investigation statement on the mistletoe abused is unfounded. russian ministry of defense provided the documents confirming that the missile was produced in 1986 given to one of the ukrainian military units and stayed there until it was used. all this information was ignored. and again, despite over controversy all over the missing details about the, the me sal itself where the launcher was, who can control the launcher at the time whether it was on the ukrainian side, on the, on the rebels side. all of those questions remain well classified. the answer to those questions remained remain classified for now. we don't know a lot about the decision making process in the prosecution. nevertheless, the defense is due to speak in march and we are waiting for
8:17 am
a verdict towards the end of next year. all right, well let's get the thoughts nav independent, cheerless league river in good afternoon tea, lee come, what do you make of mister lever off's concerns? he's raised about this case and i think he's right with all the question the race is, are not so a lawyer or by training, but there are questions that are really worrying that the 1st thing is that these prosecutors dodge, prosecutors concluded that it was an accident so it is an accident. nobody wanted to get this malaysian playing down and kill 300 people. it was an accident. so in many wars aligned by america, for example, in other parts of the world, this would be considered as a collateral damage. so is it criminal in the same way as a deliberate attempt to, to destroy the blane? i think there is a huge difference. it doesn't seem to appear in the judgement. give her,
8:18 am
not all the requests by the prosecutors to send these people to jail for, for a life sentence. another point is that this happened in july 2014 and the warrant on bus. it started in march. if i remember, well, so full month earlier, and during all the time, ukraine did not realize that it was dangerous to let a commercial airlines fly over that part of the country. i mean, this is ludicrous. i mean, nobody flies for the moment of the city, for example, no airline from any country because it's of course dangerous. if there is a war on, on the ground, and besides, i shot that can fly to 22 kilometers, are both good, good at the place. so this is to me, strange that at least on ukraine is not also accused partly
8:19 am
of this. so accident as they say, mr. lever, i've also made the point say, he said in his view, it seemed to be that the trial was more focused on the russian state than perhaps the 4 suspects on trial. and does he have a point there? while he does that mean, it's clear and transparent, and ukraine is part of the process and, and this is ready, political, a decision clearly on russia is to be blamed. it seems evident, n and b for p. probably none of them pushed on the button by the way, but if they are responsible for this accident, as the court said, oh, they are not the only ones. so it is, it is really a quite annoying to see the stair farm for people. they are condemned, they will go to jail forever if ever they come to the netherlands or western europe, and nobody else is to play strangers name. how hit the water start in,
8:20 am
don't us. that's one of the main question is under ukraine state, responsible of many things there you as you say in as we've been reporting a lot of questions seem to remain hanging, but i'm given that we're going to get the verdict. i think the back end of next year, some time, and perhaps the prosecution will make their case in a couple of months time. what's your hunch about which way this will go g feel is much more to be revealed. and it's too early to say. i think it will go along the lines that we have heard about today. i mean, to prosecution, world care, it's way may be, it will be a bit less than life sentence, but it will be probably along these lines and ukrainian state will not be mentioned in author. responsibility will be found by the score. so it is clearly not real justice to me, and there should be more comments about the fact that it's only a collateral damage that normally wanting to down that plane and so on. i would be
8:21 am
very much interested in what international lawyers independent, international lawyers have to say about. and for arguments sake, luc shaming that the men are convicted and found guilty. can you then say a circus developing around russia again with regard to an age 70? yeah, of course it gets in the present climate where russia is to blame for everything. you know, if you listen to president lensky or his predecessor as a traitor, or are they want to join nato immediately? i mean, versus. thank god, ukraine is not in made to god and i am sure many, many people in western europe think the same. i mean, your crime is a very dangerous and a box. they're responsible for, for their own problems and job. it's very understandable that moscow says enough and it is enough and we won't tolerate you trying to get into nato just like that. this is not acceptable. can you imagine russia?
8:22 am
oh, sending some messiah to mexico, or it would be mexico would be invaded the week after, bye, in the united states. so, here we are at the border of russia. russia has something to say about it. and president putin has been very patient until now. so i'm afraid that in coming month it will only worsen the climate as okay. late. we could talk a lot longer, but going to leave it there. that was an independent journalist lucrative. a thanks for coming up. i mean fighting his broken act within the u. s. democratic party, after one of its own senators tip the balance in the senate by refusing to vote in favor of jo biden's, near tea, trillion dollar billed back. better bill joe manchin immediately tree fury 2 from the white house. as his move is seen as a fatal blow to the president's flagship plan, although apparently not by biden himself, luther mentioned work to you and have
8:23 am
a better resolution that some people think. maybe i'm not original, hold grudge fork, i want to get things done. i still think there's a possibility. can you go back better, john? although biden did seem unfazed, then they did pay the way for further rift in american politics with the democratic party now facing something of the crisis of confidences. saskia taylor explains by didn't promise to build back back. but a long time friend joe mansion went to fox news and blew up the president's campaign promises and i cannot vote to continue with this piece of legislation. i just can't. i've tried everything humanly possible. i can't get there. you're done . this is a no. this is a no. and with it, it seems his whole party. we all knew that center mansion couldn't be trusted. you know the, the excuses that he just made, i think,
8:24 am
are completed. and let miss the manager to explain to the people of west virginia why he doesn't have the guts to set up. the powerful, special ed for whiteside are mentioned, did yesterday represent such an egregious breach of the trust in the president. and it's also, you know, this is exactly why it's an outcome that we had warned about. we have been saying this for weeks that this would happen and we took the hit, our leadership needs to step off. now politics and finger pointing, go hand in hand, nothing new. right. well, not quite because one of the tradition for the red to the blues to speak to each other across the aisle. hey, it's a democrat spitting, i didn't. chapa, i didn't even take that much. just one man one veto. and it all came down. what made mansions, treachery over more, i'm forgivable. was like, he was by do body. a funny face. will say that from the president's viewpoint and i saw him this morning,
8:25 am
he's worked with senator mansion over the course of decades. they share fundamental values. they're long time friends that has not changed. that's how alienating biden's policies apparently become a long time friend of decades of shad fridays and mansion still broke rank. even though he the lawless, even though billed by bachelor, was by didn't baby. and even though he knows that without the bill, the mid tubs may be a blog off. if we could get the build back better plan past, democrats will have a strong possibility of at least keeping the senate. it's tough, it's a tough reality. in today's america, where it's party above all mansions, vito spells trouble for bite and i really couldn't have come i was time yes. canister withdrawal on the contact ring through the us. hi, petra price says a supply chain still in crisis record inflation on a historically low popularity rating of just 141 percent at
8:26 am
a time right this you need your people move and that's why you need a rallying cry. what does biden have a party and boiled and fighting has signature legislation in the dot, and now defecting democrats with rumors, there is just the tip of the iceberg member, we had an individual re register from democrat to republican, and i think there are a few other democrats out there that are thinking about it, why not? because they've changed, but the party has changed with what appears to be a crisis of confidence in this changed party. the last thing the democrats can afford is a crisis of confidence in the president himself, but looks like that's exactly what they've got. so the real president, it is country joe mentioned joe biden. mad wife for the come on charlemagne, i really job and i can't. no, no, no, no, no, no, no, it's joe biden, which quite frankly, probably came a news to biden himself kinda side. of course, president harris is a proud howard. ok, but kidding aside,
8:27 am
the democrats got handed the keys to success. they took over from the countries most divisive president. they took control of the house and the senate, and yet here, just 11 months on their in disarray with the president probably looking on and thinking that maybe instead of building back better, it might be worth building back a party that seems to have lost its way as you know, obviously rate is split and now is growing seem like daily is growing, almost both part is he and america is the breakup within the democrat pot. and india leadership law president by the house hasn't made it in a battle. they are running a freight, you know, the election is coming up to mit turning 2022 and doubtful. they may lose that. and it's a one way thing. it shows a lot of hypocrites within the democratic party. i think the democrats know they are in for fight a fight all their life. they have all been so rather grab
8:28 am
a cane so radical that they have moved far away from the main stream of america. what american people want, and they know it's going to be a fight, but they are life. they only all white house and they own the congress and the senate. and they have been unable to get to be back better program together and get it class because he actually bankruptcy for america as what his dance well and that issue and you strapped this, are you watching us he time to get there as always, plenty stories on a website at audio. com ah i was diagnosed with cancer in 2000 lives. when the doctors told me the cancer was incurable. i knew i had to make a change. so i decided to travel to one of the most toxic places in america, florida. one of florida is biggest industries and best kept secrets,
