10:36 pm
marshall shook off what here. his reaction he was supposed to be there taking, taking the salute. so i can imagine what he was little experiencing. i didn't comment anything because our war whole minor comments. i, he didn't say a single word, his board for more kinetic and things like that. and i had breakfast, not at tiffany's, but what's marshal drucquer o, from his perch at radio, moscow to his talent for simultaneous translation. george was an observer of the world changing the world came to george. and it was often through sports where there was no politics. i also did mainly my work yet radio moscow at that time was translating and as a reporter in interviewing people in russian and translating him
10:37 pm
simultaneously into english. and there was a lot of public focus on the d test track and field meeting between the activates of the united states and the soviet union. there was great interest in these track and field research, especially in the long distance runners because everyone was cheering for the american came who supported the americans and everyone cheering for the soviet long distance runners. i was in the lord nicky stadium at the one of these the track and field meets between the u. s. and soviet athletes that there was a long distance race going on in the, in the stadium. i was in the, on the ground in the center on the grass hill. and the track was around there. and

10:39 pm
a standing ovation from the whole group of the entire stadium packed well over 60000 people. soviet fans rose up game a standing ovation. that's sports for you. no politics at all. there was, i think it was 1987 a soft ball came from san francisco, came to moscow and that radio moscow we organized me not many people knew baseball in this in this country. practically none except my grandson now, who played facebook and the play knew they came from san francisco veterans, veterans, not real sportsman. and we played it. they, we who received a statement, a stadium and we played a game of baseball,
10:40 pm
was covered by this, the american magazine sports illustrated. he which, you know, and there was a big story about it. and it was a very good game. we lost the game, of course the americans won and they cut this runs in their blood baseball, one baseball of my favorite game, after hockey, which is the canadian and after the game more, we all went to their hotel. we had a nice party and we became friends. no politics enough tall of chrome. but there were occasions when the soviet union um versus canada came up. so which side did you wanna try? okay, with f. as in harry. good question, but i'll say one thing better. it's a silly question for me because i'm in a win win position. i can't loath canada wins. i'm glad the
10:41 pm
soviet union wins. i'm also glad i can't lose. that's a win win position. one of the most important persons in george, his life was his brother karl. george was always close with his brother. they were not just brothers. they were the best of friends when the series. oh it was called the it's vest your price is yes. the name of the soviet daily and was all the games that were played in moscow. they had bring side commentator who sat to with a ringside commentator and russian was my brother carl watched. i'll tell you one thing here. i watched most of the games on tv, and then there was one game that he saw which were playing against swinging here in moscow. at lucian,
10:42 pm
he stayed him and for some reason he was busy at some other kind of a job. he says george william pinch had for me and sure. okay. so on that day of the game, you ssr sweeten. and the ring side with me, not my brother. and i did the whole game and the post post game conference conference, and no one harry realised it was not my brother, but me except one person. my mother. interestingly, it was carl, whom george owes his acquaintance to his future wife. you won't believe me, but how i met my wife begins with a sorry about a paper clip damn paper clip. my brother was working in the african section, which broadcast both in english and french. and there was a young lady,
10:43 pm
beautiful young lady. i was translating from rushman to french. my brother sat together with the translators on the 5th floor, together with the rest of the translator. young lady were translated into french, was typing away, and my brother was sitting opposite casa roman, throwing paper clips into her typewriter. to kat to catch her attention. so soon weigh configure on long and short of it as he caught her attention and they started going out together. and he says listen, they've got a girlfriend for my brother and he's, he's sort of m doping around nothing, nothing. no, she's sure i, i went to my schoolmate. her name is galena. ah,
10:44 pm
nearly 60 years of marriage, a daughter and 2 grandchildren. the family has always had the highest value for george in my right up in the internet when we 1st wrote as numbers of russia today, i wrote a very brief story of my life and the love, my last line was, my grandchildren are my life, enjoy my pride and joy, i think pride in them enjoy and to give me both in a in russian, it sounds rhymes quite well. go to dust it rather st. pride and joy. ah,
10:45 pm
them is the earth still large enough to satisfy the ambitions of jeff bezos? you know, it's got its tentacles in so many aspects of the economy. there's nothing that amazon is. i'm trying to get into the step by step. the amazon empire has extended its group on the world that was like end up being quite like a dog a. so amazon looks like monopoly trades like a monopoly makes money like a monopoly behaves like monopoly. amazon essentially controls the market place is, are really a market as a private arena, a world where a single company controls the distribution of all day. the products and the infrastructure of our economy is loose the world according to amazon. mm.
10:46 pm
with bring you the very latest every out of the day. this is all i know from everyone here normally with when i was showing wrong, when i just don't a to fill out the scene because the advocate and engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves will the horn we choose to look for common ground. ah, where is james all down through here? pollen is the larry over here. so your camps are always
10:47 pm
a little nicer than this. this is evidence of absolute poverty, despair. people in our city and other cities all across america are living like this. we're at the original eden village that opened up in 2018. and right now there's 31 homes on the property. it's a little over 4 acres with 31 homes and a community center. unfortunately, a lot of people don't make it out of edition more homelessness alive, and i'm just really happy. it made it her dad you with me in. ah, i think there was the year 1962 soviet american relations rapidly worse and during cruise jobs last years. as 1st party secretary, the cuban missile crisis becomes the most dangerous point in the confrontation. the
10:48 pm
world is on the verge of a new fuel war. in the autumn of 1962 is unclear whether the 2 nations can come to an agreement. i was very concerned about what would happen, how is very concerned that was the closest anyone had ever come to that and that's the time that the soviet union put endure, but belkin still come into the ha outer space and they returned. they returned life later on. ah, cartoon was made by the soviets, cinematographers, it was called belkin strip. okay. i translated into english and voiced a couple of commercials of our belkin stroke, which i thought were,
10:49 pm
was very good. and i liked voicing cartoons because you change your voice your hey, you have the brotherly way of your possibilities. george also served in the soviet military. he was trained as a paratrooper, so this young man, born in canada, would parachute over the steps of russia. i was called up to the airborne troops, which was a meeting having his training course in the southeastern soviet republic of hos becky stun, which is way down the se. oh, we went by train from moscow and took me about 5 or 6 days. i don't remember i was sleeping most abstract and there we went through
10:50 pm
a very unusual. i say, unusual now, because not everyone goes parachute grumbling. i know i was 1st a bit wary about that because i was wondering if i could do it. if i had the nun nuff gumption to, to make a jump on the parachute and to jump out of a plane into nothingness, i made 5 jumps, a special badge garner, the nav and special document jumps. were diff, different types of planes, and different types of parachutes. double parachute, sometimes we shall tell you about the time who are 2nd. i think the 2nd or 3rd junk was from her from a very small 99 paratroopers jump one after another. they
10:51 pm
had new year old, we're 1st parish and we're open up automatically because who reported was on the clip card and then the other one you opened by herself and throw it out. i would throw it out instead of throwing it's far out. it opened up inside the main shoot to the main shoot was to go slow and the other one was on fold up and go down. you go down faster, going little jerks like that. well anyway, i managed to land at the time when the main shoed was opened, so was a soft landing. and anyway, we finally returned from our mission. and i got to touch kent there. there puerto was full of people. i walked up to the check in lady there is no, no no, nothing until tomorrow. but she come on,
10:52 pm
let me go. listen. i've been in for more over 4 months in training camp flowing. we should wait illuminated. there's an empty seat. i'll put you on. and true enough, later i heard the announcement that plane was going to be the closing check check in time and should okay, i'll put you on new here. there's a reserve see one guy didn't show up and to reserve seats from top officers. the one was a general, i sat down beside him, he says hale, what do you, do you find a moscow? why are you dress so scantily? i says, well, i've been a training camp for, for, for over 4 months. and here we are born. yeah, she's ok good. he bring her a bottle of connected to here. airborne, true driving from a different division, but anyway, he didn't tell me what division it was. i'd and i didn't,
10:53 pm
i learned from my 1st days not to ask questions, especially if you're a foreigner. as the soviet union transformed and re glasnost in perestroika, it was apparent the end was coming near. like everyone else around george in his family. there was fear of violence of people. i'll tell you one thing i was at a loss. february. i was at a loss. i didn't know what to do. i think there was august 19th or august 20th. it was a monday or tuesday i traveled to that was when the attempted overthrow was made in moscow. everybody was playing swan lake than some little swans. i had to drive out to the countryside to pick up my mother in law. and my daughter, i believe,
10:54 pm
who are there because we didn't know what was going to happen. we didn't know what was going to happen. we didn't want for once a part of our family to be split away from us. if anything got worse, i was driving. i grow out with a 5050 kilometers, one weigh 50 killer meals back. and when i was approaching moscow already, ya nailed skirts from moscow. tanks rolling towards the center. that's one i really felt bad. i didn't know was going to happen. i didn't know what was going to happen. oh, the soap you paid of george's life had ended. but a new russian one just started. during this time, a lot of events have happened. both happy inside. george joined r t and became the main bois of the tv channel. his beloved brother carl passed away. george became
10:55 pm
a grandfather twice. only one film is certainly not enough for us to describe in detail the entire incredible life of george watts. it is so bright and full of events, proud father, husband and grandfather, for whom the family always comes 1st, a brilliant professional at his work. having gone a long way from a factory worker to a well known translator and speaker, he forever remains a man of 2 countries. when i speak to a russian to russian f, especially russian official saying regarding vats when i'm traveling or speaking to english speaking people, i am george west, nothing to hide dog citizenship, all the same debate. i think everybody should love his home. i see nothing wrong with that stuff. criminal is not criminal here. if you're a patriot, you have a place where you were born. of course i read or valley is my favorite song because
10:56 pm
10:57 pm
is presented. he gets vision in writing while washington falls back on our cape cold war cliche. oh, is your media a reflection of reality? in the world transformed what will make you feel safe? isolation, whole community? are you going the right way? or are you being that somewhere? direct what is true, was his way in the world corrupted. you need to descend a join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. now and
10:58 pm
all you need to see is this fear he will foster you will fall off the end and the other side of it came home and your back home. so i would like to envision that does it also this if you live and it's just like that you all on the action going to and from the other side, i ah, it's an open secret that private military companies have been playing
10:59 pm
a role in om complex world wide u. s. government doesn't track the number of contractors and uses in places iraq or afghanistan, the united states army and the military in general is so reliance on the private sector. i would call the dependency, but we don't know who's the on the ground presence of these companies overseas. we just don't out west and private military companies can in their turn, views. so cool subcontractors from countries with trouble pass. the chances are quite good that they had also been child diligence. this is i was a j, as a, as in my job professional growth. if he's with me for 141, if i said that with no loan wall shit, which i mean to be merciless killing machines, now they fight and die in other people's was people carol, lot one and
11:00 pm
a dead soldier or dead marine shows up in this country and then we start asking ourselves, why did they die? why, what were they fighting for? nobody bothers to ask about the contractors in ah, russia, re, thieves written replies both from the u. s. and nato, to moscow's request, to secure the guarantees. that's the mid phase of a conflict in ukraine. in all the news across europe, he's there cope with restrictions, despite near record high infection rate, while health officials give makes the signals on the threats of the only constraint . also in the headlines i would prefer to be led by law, the law will he now with british prime minister boys johnson's political life seemingly heinz, by a thread with
