ah, join me every thursday on the alex salmon. sure. i'll be speaking to guess in the world of politics, sport, business, i'm sure business. i'll see you then. ah, just to night in an exclusive interview with our teeth brushes for a minute to says moscow will react to a flagrant attempt by berlin to block our teas. new german language channel of to europe's leading satellite provider, removes it at the request of the country's media regulator, which would be new use. we cannot tolerate it any longer. and we believe if this i'll executable situation will go on and we will have to respond to it. so you'll

have rob also questions the impartiality of the ongoing trial and from the downing a flight to make 17 in eastern ukraine. in 2014, prosecutors are demanding life sentences for the suspects, including 3 russian nationals and array, just in the u. s. democratic party, off to one of its own senators, effectively, torpedoes, job bodies, lavish infrastructure bill in the senate. coming out, we look at why it's feeling a crisis of confidence among democrats ah, life martin to national moscow, welcome to a will these 11 with me, kevin, and 1st this wednesday evening, the russian foreign minister circle of rav is given out to an exclusive interview in which he touched on a range of key willed issues. ah,

one of the main points mr. leverett discussed was the removal of our german language channel r t d eve from europe's main satellite network provider. it happened just moments before the interview. the movie came at the request of germany's media regulator. mr. lever of slammed the action against the channel, which on a big are broadcasting last week of all that it was unacceptable behavior on the part of berlin and that there would be consequences. wellness condition them. just the was nika, we've been tempted to respond similarly. but until recent times, convinced that we do not want to follow the same path and tried to put pressure on media to follow suit with a western congress i wish. but you know the same thing with russian security. we cannot tolerate this any longer. and we believe if this unacceptable situation will go, we'll have to respond to it. there's lots to room for the mob suit in an interview with rushes and tv network kremlin spokesperson to me to post coff said berlin's behaviour phone part of a disturbing pattern. bocurel console us, it is to muslin for

a massive ve volunteer the blocking of the whole network in europe contradicts european spirit and all norms and principles of the organization for security and cooperation in europe. but unfortunately, neither europe nor the u. s. cares about such things the day, and they do what they want. we haven't cowboy reality now. and in such circumstances, russia should act confidently, neatly and persistently, or not to shoot ourselves in the leg. so to say, let our opponents know that we totally disagree with such actions and will not leave them without consequences. so for some context r t d ease faced a barrage of resistance and allegations since it launched last thursday. it's accused of not having the necessary documentation to broadcast in germany, but our t management says it's license was obtained in accordance with all european laws and regulations. further, the new channel was also taken off youtube. the very day was launched. technically there's no connection between that and the german t v broadcast the speed at launch and official for a german media watchdog suggested that they would also take action against the

channel. this is our t statement in response to the latest news segment overlap from the lined up to day . the german regulator forced european satellites service util, set 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. am a b, b to overreach, and ignore the european convention or trans frontier television under which it is subject, thereby forcing util, sat to remove assay deutsch from the carrier solely due to the unsubstantiated and factually flawed claims of the german regulator. we believe this amounts to legal pressure and are confident this action will be redressed 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, was, nobody wants competition and we obviously are getting more and more popular. and

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 a metal. because that means we are getting more and more successful. they see and see us as more and more of a competition. but 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 and this to those here and the broadcasting facilities,

hair and german regulator is trying to persuade us this is all fictitious. we are available through 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 total illegitimate, to which we are totally entitled to our viewers in germany, as well as in all other countries as well as trotting the plan that we've used was not a plan, a unfortunately 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 sort 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 in nicholas ortiz, chief executive, early with us, apart from our german channel being cut off from the european satellite network, much attention was also devoted to the escalating tensions between russia and nato . mr. ross says moscow's lost trust in the west. yes, good yet on a monday will they slide show us on a regular basis would be from oral pledges to even political obligations enshrined in russia, nato political action. so this time as president treatment says, we want to have legally binding guarantee that the same time we understand that the whiskers violates such guarantees as well if it was as we should judge, it was a very in depth interview. i'm here in the very studio where to play, so beats and

a slot reduce format, mr. lover of cover a real her spectrum of sale into the national 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 russia, ukraine border, and 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 at moscow to listen in preparation for some sort of intervention or conflict from this lover was very clear to say that this is not something that moscow that seeks or wants so that russia moscow, once these issues can be resolved through daughter, been through the strengthening all wins national institutions such as the when another 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,

insisting that dialogue is key and not just dialogue, but also putting any sort of agreements, any sort of dialogue in writing, in some sort of legal framework, and that was something i missed the level of focus on very much. and when we touched upon the expansion of nato eastwood's, mr. law firm mentioned that to russia, moscow does see the presence of nato military data military. the expansion went to eastwards as a threat to it. security in the west has to understand that that is the topic of concern for russia on a compromise has to be reached if the elation is to happen. but here was it to sir la global loves to prove the heads of states and governments of clearly states that no participants of the o s. c, e should insure their security by damaging security of others. so when years with ocean berg made this high brow and arrogance stating that no one can fringe the principal. the washington treaty in accordance with which doors are open for any candidate wishing to exceed of nato. we can say that we are not parties

initialization. we have not signed is treated, but we have signed a broader pan regional euro atlantic documents that includes the principle of indivisible security. and if you installed some burglar lever, nato members can ignore this principle that is enshrined in those documents is not 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 mat expanse in eastwards, and that a recent discussions had been actually quite positive that washington had listened to moscow's 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, prosecutors in the netherlands have ended their arguments. in the case of malays in airlines, flight em age 17, down to the eastern ukraine in 2014, killing all 298 board. they demanding life sentences for the, for suspects, including 3 russian nationals. russia's foreign minister is once again voiced

moscow's concerns about bias. in the investigation, just muslim or to seduce a protestant were closely following the case because it's about russians. it's also a defendant at this stage of the trial. we're surely conceive the attempt to create an impression that is a problem of the state rather than the criminal case. that is completely unacceptable. so it should be considered a criminal procedure was 7 and a half years on. after a trial that has seeped with politics for its duration, prosecutors have arrived at their version of events that they have now put forward, charges against the full suspects that they believe are responsible. 3 of the russian citizens, one of them are ukranian citizen, only one of them was represented in, quote, 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 tribe because

they weren't on board with the agenda. they said this early on that there was a very, very clear, very clear angle to the investigation to the trial. and that was to blame, rush to shove all responsibility on russia. and now they've arrived at the conclusion that these 4 suspects were responsible for shooting down and made 17. with a book, a missile that was supplied from abroad. they, florida, we demand to the suspects are convicted each individual, even a joint shooting down of an after which caused the death and murder of o $298.00 people on board and life in prison. look, even if the suspects did not intend the consequences of their actions more, those consequences still count the last 8 and thank you to know how they arrived at 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 on said ukraine was included in the, in investigation advisable 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 you created secret services audio recordings of the alleged suspects. apparently talking about the jet again from the onset they was suspected of being manipulated. the recordings, multiple forensic experts came out to say the same thing that they were doctors. they were edited and words were put in place and moved, moved around. but again, ukraine's evidence was taken on board while a slew of evidence for provided from her from other sources. was it again, the case was built much on testimony from social media post. the witnesses were but

kept secret their identities anonymous. there was also the fact that for years now, the, the quote that j i t joint investigative team a vos, the united states that provides 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 massage launcher on site. united states for years now has refused multiple times to provide those satellite shots are full for the investigation. it was also an incident in which dutch m. p. 's themselves will f, 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 plane was shot down the last of about a dozen in the area, a tides that were, that were dangerous for civilian ag crap. so passenger jet and these combined with

all the evidence that was reject by the, by the prosecutors has led many to believe that indeed there was bias. a groom near college through a narrow launched number of description says impartial, judicial process rule violations, examination of witness breaches that witnesses a classified, including the one who could bring the science ignored by the investigation to light from the fact that the defense attorneys request has been rejected without any explanation says a lot. they also include the amazon takes barons which proved that investigation statement on the missile tubs used is unfounded. russian ministry of defense provided the documents confirming that the missile was produced in 1986 were given to one of the ukrainian military units and stayed there until it was used to prove all this information that was ignored in scotland. again, despite over control of a c o over the missing details about the, the me, sol itself,

where the launcher was, who 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 answers to those questions you've made 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 a verdict towards the end of next year. so the come tonight, denazi's will. he's an 11 hole out within the us democratic party, off to one of its own sentences, torpedoes your bodies, massive infrastructure bill. it's kevin, how many of the sour cream on that after the break? and ah, o, b mm

ah . ah how should we describe our time witnesses? i geist as they say, do we have a sense of direction and purpose? we also hear a lot about the desire to return to normal. what does that mean? are we actually living in the new normal with

ah, in fighting is broken out within the u. s. democratic party of to one of its own senators tipped the balance in the senate by refusing to vote in favor of jo biden's near to trillion dollar bill bag. better bill chairman should immediately drew fury from the white house. his move is seen as a fatal blow to the president's flagship plan, although apparently not by biden himself. do you believe started mentioned he'd worked to you and hadn't the result trust with banter legislation? not some people think maybe i'm not. our industries don't hold crunch fork. i want to get things done. i still think there's a possibility. can you go back better, john? although bowden seemed unfazed, it did pay the way for a further rift in american politics with the democratic party. now, facing a crisis, a confidence assassin, taylor reports by didn't promise to build back back. but that 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, this is a no. this is a no. and with it it seems his whole party. we all knew that send or mention couldn't be trusted. and you know, the, the excuses that he just made, i think, are complete and let miss america explain to the people of west virginia why he doesn't have the guts to say up the powerful special or what senator mentioned did . yesterday represents such an egregious breach of the trust of 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 up. now politics and finger pointing, go hand in hand,

nothing new, right? well, not quite because wanted tradition for the reds in the blues to spit to each other across the aisle. here, if the democrats spitting at each other, and it didn't even take that much, just one man, one veto. and it all came down. what made mansions, treachery, aldermore, unforgivable, was that he was biden's body. a friendly face will say that from the president's viewpoint and i saw him this morning. 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 have apparently become long time friends, decades of shared values. and mansion still broke rank, even though he's loyal us, even though build back better was biden's baby. and even though he knows that without the bill, the midterms may be a blood bath. 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 biotin and it really couldn't have come out a worth time. the afghanistan withdrawal on the con herring 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 a time like this, you need your people more than that's why you need a rallying cry. what does bite and have a party embroiled in fighting his signature legislation in the dot and now defecting democrats with rumors that is just the tip of the iceberg member, we had an individual re register from democrats, republicans, 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 and it's 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 is who the real president. it is country joe mentioned joe biden. madam white, for the con charlemagne. i realize it's job by chance. no, no, no, no, no. it's joe biden, which quite frankly, probably came as news to bite and himself. but, oh kid, the side of course president harris. the proud howard. oh, okay, but kidding aside, the democrats got handed the keys to success. they took over from the country's most divisive president. they took control of both the house and 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 paul t that seems to have lost its way that you know of societies reasonably, you know, run like daily growing almost both parties here in america is

a break up within the democratic party. and in the b leadership law, president vine house hasn't made it into the right enough freight elections coming up to mit, turning 20 or 22. and therefore they may lose that. and it's a one way thing. it shows a lot of chris within the gum credit parking lot. i think the gum crash. no, they are in for a fighter fight of their lives. they have all been so rather grabber came from radical debt. 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 for their 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. ah, program to government get it class because it actually bankruptcy for america does what it stands for. the replaceable nation on the world stays us. i. washington's top diplomat then has characterized america, dealing somewhat of

a blow to those who hope the by the administration might take a more cooperative global approach seems not sexist, identity, blink, and added that chaos would ensue if the white has stopped what he called leading the world american engagement, american leadership matters. the world doesn't organize itself when we're not engaged. when we don't lead, then one or 2 things happens. either some other country tries to take our place, but probably not in a way that advances our interests and values or no and us. and then you get chaos. will i browse already been raised over the claims coming in the wake coast of america's disastrous invasion. then pull out from afghanistan of late, and critics note the u. s. overall as a less than pro record of leading, not least with its reco in the likes of afghanistan, iraq libby or in syria. the list goes on. millions there have been killed or displaced is the result of those interventions. let's talk about this now with full

of marine corps intelligence of thought. richard. hello, scott. good evening yet. how will blink his comments go down? for instance in it's very person, this one afghanistan tonight book i know tony blanket has a very difficult job and that is to try and put a good face on a, on bad policy on, on an administration that you know, promised the moon a can even launch and that's, that's the by administration, and that's the by administration when it comes to foreign policy. it's all rhetoric, it's no, and this has been happening before the biden administration is when the court has gone on for decades. did the statements that we've heard tonight, the latest incarnation of it mean that no lessons have been learned from these previous disastrous interventions. there you will not be present in the united states very long. if you allow your secretary of state to get on a stage and speak the truth about the,

the state of affairs between the united states and in the world today, the united states exist based upon the premise of american exceptionalism. that america is the go to nation, the indispensable nation. um and it, you know, that's the mid allusion that can be kept out. like as my going by said, just most recently afghanistan, we see the state that's been left in well, that's the state, the world has been left and i think president imprudent gave a speech the other day and it basically said everything american touch dies. and that's, that's, unfortunately is the truth. you know, we haven't had a foreign policy success in decades or invasion of iraq in 2003, of course, predicated on over a decade of sanctions based containment of saddam hussein. that

changed the entire middle east, which in turn pains the entire world, not for the better either. so or the state has a problem when kids can say that if the u. s. isn't leading the world in other countries, could potentially take its place to something that could sound like a bit of a power trip may be indeed is. that's what striving america to do this over these decades and more that the power trip than trying to sort out the world. the world come and good united states inherited the situation at the end of the 2nd world war, where it was the sole power capable of leaving the world out of the disaster that had fallen. that for more than a decade in the united states then went onto shape a bipolar world, which rotated around itself and the soviet union. and we had decades of cold war. and then after the cold war in the union collapse, united states or less standing alone in the united states has been desperately

trying to sustain this. you know, this, the status. i got a final, i got a final 45 seconds. you're american, you served country the marine corps, so far as you say, why does america feel? it can take the stance. it still does because we can doesn't make it right. but we, we are in a position where we have the, the power, the, the accumulation of power to, to make the stand and continue to make the stand. and right now, there's not too many nations that can stand up and prevent it from doing it. it doesn't make it right. we've seen the consequences of this. but for the moment, the united states, you know, is a, is a superpower. laxom moral compass, felt right. her former marine corps intelligence officer. thanks for coming on the line with us. about a home it sees world news at 11 live for moscow with me, kevin, and thanks for watching. and a very good evening to you. ah

ah. when you listen to a sequence of tone and you think acts is going to happen. you know, why happen? said that distinctive breathing response in gauge that are relevant to you, how we experience reward and pleasure. well, listening to some people looking at this is a kind of a kind of choreographing of our expectations. so, ah, working room, or should she popped in? she said, well, i'm getting ready to go shopping for christmas and we,

we snuck up there was a girl to buy another, shooting another safe part of american life shattered by violence. the gunman was armed with an a ar 15, semi automatic rifle. when the issue comes home, it's time to act. when we're filing on this issue, the other side winds. by default, the lady that lived over there. i was walking one of the dogs. she says, why do you wear again? were you scared of nothing? put ticket offer, i think the people need to take responsibility and 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 with.
