do gonna was carried out by the ukrainian secret services. the official statement has identified the terrorists as a 43 year old woman who's a ukranian citizen named natalia, evolved and her 12 year old daughter who was brought along named sophia siobhan. now, according to the f s. b, they were following around. daria do gonna, in a mini cooper, this mini cooper entered russia, entered the country with daniel people's republic license plates, and then it was traveling around moscow with catholic stan license plates and then left the country to estonia with ukrainian license plates. the country where the assailants made their getaway to the same many cooper we're talking about here was also seen on ukrainian websites for sale earlier before this attack took place. but that, but that listing has been actually taken down. the lot of people on the internet are saying that by putting up a listing to sell the car, the assailants were trying to have an alibi before they committed the act. as for where the assailants carried out this attack, it likely took place at a literature,
9:04 pm
music festival that both the assailants were at hand. daria do gonna and her father alexander doogan before she was killed shortly before she was killed before a bomb was planted under the driver's side of the vehicle. russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman murray is a horror of a has called this a terrorist attack on her telegram channel. and that's exactly what it is. there's no grey area for interpretation. this was an act of state sponsored terror against unarmed civilians. and at the same time, kiev continues to accuse russian soldiers of killing civilians throughout its military operation in ukraine. but we have seen continually acts like this and we've seen ukraine stay silent on it. and what's more, we're seeing ukrainian officials call for the genocide of russians in general. like the ukranian envoy, the kaz extent. let's take a listen or he'll try to kill as many of them as possible. the more russians we kill now, the less our children will have to kill in terms of daria. do good at. what did she
9:05 pm
achieve? her all too brief time on earth, really and her father. we keep hearing so many headlines, but him in the west. who was he? what were his beliefs to just to give you some background on the victim of this attack? daria do going to, she was the daughter of the anti western author and political commentator, alexander, duke and, and she was also actually a personal friend of mine. her father has been targeted by the western media as a sort of advisor to vladimir putin on foreign policy. issues for the longest time they've been in the western media, he's been really made out to be this really important person. while actually in russia in the kremlin, has not officially recognized any time with him. and many consider him to be quite a marginal figure. and it's also important to notice that many are saying that there's a lot of speculation and reports that change i would say under do was actually the true target of this attack. ma, considering the fact that this bomb was actually planted under the drivers side of
9:06 pm
alexander, duke and car, and it was only after a last minute decision for him to take a separate vehicle to another place. and for daria to take his car that we unfortunately saw that dory do can do gonna was killed in this attack ukraine. this presidential office has denied any involvement in the killing of doing to saying the accusations are quote, fiction created by russia. however, we did hear from a former ukranian security service officer who says ukrainian forces could be likely to carry out terror attacks in russia should do. he crane is behind this terrorist attack with facing a system this focused on terrorist operations. this system did not appear today. it began to be built immediately after my done. it was formalized in 2015 when an amazing of the intelligence committee under president par shanker. the course was clearly taken to carry out sabotaged terrorist attacks on the territory of the dpr alpa crimea, and the russian federation. and then the ukrainian security service. the main intelligence directorate were instructed to prepare special sabotaged groups that
9:07 pm
would operate in these territories. it also means using, trained to foreign specialist. so in 2015, all such activities received official status said there's nothing surprising given that things are going badly for them at the fronts. it's necessary to show some successes for their target audience and for western curators. that is, acts of direct terrorist attack, and then you put yourself in the place of the board of services. me see a young woman with a child. naturally, there'll be less attention to such person. therefore, there is nothing surprising as there is nothing surprising in the fact that ukrainian special services use children to disguise or carry out terrorist attacks . i want to remind you that in 2016 a terrorist group was revealed in the dpr which included minus the group was liquidated. there was allowed process. that is, there is nothing sacred for them. there are no red lines. they need to achieve that goal. and the goal is the same to defeat russia, the suggestion of terror, the infliction of maximum losses, also before it is out international or the you has been getting increasingly
9:08 pm
involved in the ukranian conflict with a block now considering conducting a large scale military training program for the korean armed forces party contributed make a rachel mawson has well details on this. the rhetoric from some leadership figures in europe is growing increasingly militaristic and seems to be laying the groundwork for greater aggression and involvement in the ukraine conflict. the european union's chief diplomat, joseph burrell said on monday that the blocks defense ministers will be considering a proposal at their meeting in prague next monday, and tuesday to get involved in training ukrainian troops on e u. territory. one, i believe it seems reasonable that a war that is lasting and looks set to last requires an effort not only in terms of supplies of material to you, but also in training and assistance to the organization of the army. and, and i hope it will be approved, it will not be in ukraine. it will be in, in neighboring countries, which already have training missions,
9:09 pm
britain and canada are already train ukrainian fighters and britain may be canada will actually vet them this time to avoid the embarrassment of being outed by the canadian means 3 mia again for training fighters who flagrantly sported neo nazi symbols and speaking at the use land warfare conference in london, britain's army chief general sir patrick sanders evoked to ramping up called operation. mobilize to prepare british troops for urban combat and to fight alongside nato allies in a high intensity conflict in europe. the british armies top ranked, warn officer paul carney, also just wrote in soldier magazine, which is the official monthly published by the case ministry of defense that british troops should get ready for the possibility of deployment. amid the ukraine conflict for which they should prepare their families, i want us all to check. we are physically fit for operations, and it is also important. we prepare loved ones and families who often have the
9:10 pm
hardest role in our absence. now, french president, a mentor in mac hall, also raised eyebrows here in france a few days ago when he framed the energy crisis and economic hardship caused by the use own sanctions as the price of freedom in a quote, war economy. johnson. i am thinking of all people who will need the strength of mind to face the times ahead to resist uncertainties sometimes to ease adversity and united agreed to pay the price of our freedom and our values. friends, isn't it more with russia? but it seems like an attempt to blame russia for french citizens suffering under the use on sanctions. it also makes you wonder what he knows about how bad things are about to get here. and europe, as the energy and inflation crises start to really bite. all of this militaristic rhetoric seems all the more risky in light of some ukranian officials, growing increasingly bold in their violent remarks ran because we tried to kill
9:11 pm
as many russians as possible. the more we kill russians now, the less our children will have to kill them with it. that's it. and european and western officials, if they truly want peace, they certainly seem to be head in precisely the opposite direction with their recent comments. well, throughout the don't yet republic, there have been about 15 civilian casualties from internationally band land mines. the key forces have disbursed even in residential areas. the victims include children with some of the band weapons found within the vicinity of schools and former friendship service. men are a bouquet who has gained recognition for independently reporting. one key of actions in the don bass describes the problem of land mines in that area. ah, you can see
9:12 pm
a recognizable element of the cluster munitions that scatters anti personnel mines when they are released in the air. these are the so called butterfly mars. they fallen in the center of done at city on household plots of civilians in another places around. this is obvious proof that every one is demanding to present. moreover, they have a serial number for those who want to get additional information about the use of anti personnel mines and done s. and i want to underline that these are completely prohibited arms. i mean if this vehicle is butterfly, mines are highly explosive objects invented by engineers in order to cripple a human being, they have a push action mechanism that he's at the moment of contact with this object. a traumatic separation of the leaps happens. ready
9:13 pm
ready ah, so ukrainians tried to had several ammonia holding tanks. this was done intentionally . ready the goal was to create a huge cloud of ammonia, which would then spread to the population for its destruction by the neighbors. fortunately, they didn't succeed. ah, m v and here we have found a huge fragment of a projectile. i can show you what is written on the ammunition in yes, you are not dreaming. the french word de, montage, which means remove is on it. this is the biggest fragment of the and shell among those we found on the spot in the it's an element of the french projectile duties markings, professionals will be able to identify and track this munition. the numbers listed
9:14 pm
here. mm mm . we are at the entrance to the room where the prisoners were held. now we see where they live. so here was the entrance. me here they lived in their sleeping quarters were located right here. and as you can see, the shell fell and came to the roof, and as it seems to me, it was an incendiary projectile. as everything caught fire, all the prisoners immediately were burned. some of them were asleep at the time. you can see the condition of the beds which are completely burnt out from the
9:15 pm
bottom to the top. i use all right over to south korea now where cooperation with the u. s. takes the form of the largest joint military drills in years. however, the people of south korea not entirely satisfied with the state of affairs, they are voicing their discontent. in the past 10 days, rallies have been held where thousands of people assembled to protest against the military exercises. with the united states, the demonstrators held signs to show that disagreement with the government's actions. they demanded a revision of the country's policy towards north korea and china, and push for cooperation with john yang to establish. he's in that regional to leave us a t neat. the joint military exercise between south korea and the united states is a very reckless war rehearsal that not only threatens the peace of the korean
9:16 pm
peninsula, but also the peace of the northeast asia region. so we oppose the military exercise . no, since the beginning of this administration, south korea is taking a hard line policy towards north korea and china. we are here to day to call for peace on the korean peninsula and inter korean reconciliation and co operation. i time to learn more. here with our tea crossing live out a former us marine corps intelligence officer, scott ritter, joining us here on the program. great to see you today. what do you, what do you think the purpose of these drills are? well, the states maintains a significant no robust military capability and, and south korea there combat troops and combat troops in order to be fair for combat. have to train, they have integrated there. they are fully integrated with the south, their south korean counterparts. so they have to train with their south korean counterparts. so that's what's going on. right now.
9:17 pm
when donald trump came in the office is north koreans made it clear that they were not happy with these drills. because some of these drills incorporate exercises that portend it. to be stimulating. a preemptive computation strike against the north korean leadership and koreans weren't happy about that. the a deal was made to scale down and then eventually terminate in exchange for talks on the nuclear ization. i think the fact that these military drills are, are, are back means that every everything donald trump accomplished in terms of opening the door for flo missy has been swept off the table. where you mention donald trump, it was back in 2080. and that he threatened to pull us forces out of the region, but clearly that never happened. and you talk about the presence of us troops. if you look at, for example, of the east coast of china,
9:18 pm
there are dozens of us military bases. and then you go down to japan where there are more u. s. military bases. and then just over west of japan is south korea with more u. s. military bases. we had a comment from a south created resident just now saying that south korea is taking a hard line with neighboring north korea and china, she'd you think sole is making this decision for itself? well, certainly there is some domestic politics involved. the new south korean president ran on a platform of taking a harder stance against north korea, but it also is reflected with the fact that he is desirous of having better relations with the united states. united states has been lobbying, you know, various governments in the pacific region to join them in there. i don't know, per said against china. and so, you know, the previous south korean president is taking a softer approach. was looking for reconciliation with the north. and that was out
9:19 pm
of step with the american policy as it, as it currently just which is a more hard line policy against china. scott, what do you thinking in your opinion, to do having these, these american bases and us forces in that part of the world, in particular, in south korea, do you think it has a stabilizing effect on the region? just the opposite. i look during the cold war in the, in the aftermath of the 2nd world war, in the decades of followed when we had the standoff between the democratic west and the communist. so union in china. this base is served a purpose, but in the post cold war era, they serve no purpose. first of all, if you take a look at the numbers of troops and the kinds of troops that are there, they can fight china by themselves. they can't fight russia by themselves, they need significant reinforcement. i think we'd be better off removing these
9:20 pm
bases and looking for to, to engendered stability with, between united states and china. scott, we've, we've certainly seen plenty of reaction for any number of years coming out of pyongyang they, they certainly enjoy doing that miss all tests and there they enjoy doing a bit of, i don't know, throwing their weight around in that region it's, it's just too much off of the course, but, but north korea, you know, i don't know what kind of reaction we could expect from pyongyang, if, if south korea is going to get involved with these enormously historically big u. s. military drill is what do you think about the young gang right now? well, i think they've already made a statement with their, their missile tests, and i believe that they're going to continue to carry out missile tests. they've also altered their nuclear posture. it clear that they're more prepared to use nuclear weapons today than they were asked. so it's a very dangerous situation. and again, this is ill advised policy on the part of south korea and bad advice if it,
9:21 pm
if it's being given by the states going to, well i still got you here just just a time for one quick last question. if i can, we were showing pictures of the protests in sole and the surrounding region, literally thousands and thousands of people protesting against the government's policy with america. and these, what was supposed to be called historic military drills that are up and coming. why is that? when you've got such an enormous show from people, why is it that we don't really see any of this in the western media? hello, it's, it's counter narrative. it's against the narrative that the united states try to project that north korea's an irresponsible government. the an isolated nation, these demonstrations are reflect with the fact that there's a significant percentage of the south korean population that was looking forward to reconciliation with the north thought. you know, families were divided, separated, and there's, you know, their, their grandparents now who would like to be able to make contact with their
9:22 pm
relatives on the other side on both sides of the order before they, before they pass. so i think there were many south koreans or we're hopeful that there could be no termination of conflict better in relation or to re unification down the road. and what they're seeing right now is just, you know, a giant step backwards. this is not good for patients to bill scott right now for my us marine corps intelligence office are joining us here. live on auto international, a pleasure, a happy thanks very much. ah, well, anti competitive practices by big tech companies. that's the allegation by indian authorities. as they summit representatives of us firms, apple, google, and amazon for questioning, i'll take or respond on joint sharma reports. i just want to ballistic not to says the indian government has come down hard on big companies. the bottom and t

9:25 pm
especially in the digital space following campaigns of unfair business statuses. serbia's president alexander of butcher chose val to protect the ethnic serbs and the break away cause of a region. as he says that if nato peacekeepers fail to ensure security tensions will escalate, we have nowhere to retreat, we are cornered and so our key message to our population in kosovo and meta here is that no matter what happens, there will be no columns of refugees. we will save our people from persecution and pogroms. that's if nato doesn't want to do this, or if they participate in the grams with albanian units, though i hope they will not. well, the president's statement comes, despite nato promises to intervene and bolster forces in kosovo. if needed. last week's trilateral toltz with an e. u foreign affairs chief of joseph burrell, aimed at normalizing ties, but fail to find any common ground. inventions rose already of this month when the cause of thorough. he's moved to ban serbian documents and license plates. and
9:26 pm
international if has commented medical gas search believes there are external forces, adding fuel to the fine thing to bear in mind that slavery don't really want to go to the loads. you need to say that back on the farm, the outside is the ones who started the part in the 1st i made it impossible to solve and keeping it. and so by supporting one side that supports well national side against the other side, which is the safest serbia. what we are talking about when we introduced and refusal of concession is the nato side, which bombed its way into cost a lot, crated, the biggest military base since vietnam in cultural, state and cultural. ever since of the cultural defensive to compromise. because the us is allowing him to make demands and no concession expected group. i just prayed, living phone history,
9:27 pm
come up and people and hope of the problem i've played with late. so all gone that's solutions long and event attempts to avoid escalation server. you will now have to refuse russian oil. a serbian president church said that from november, the 1st belgrade will not be able to import russian oil due to e. u. sanctions imposed against russia. what are we going to do with electricity oil? from november 1st, there will be no russian oil for us. we will be under sanctions or moto gas. it also says the e u is willing to make balkan states poorer in the fall out of it's economic war with russia. the point ready here is that the you is stopping time because reach the erotic holt in croatia from which it goes by pipeline to gratian and to
9:28 pm
present woochie doesn't want to stop importing oil from, from anybody, recent russia, most of it. so this is a problem of the use making. it wants to make the balkans correspond you or even pull ra over. this wind sends a breeze even more winds up and carried on with the tank of bad because then people can eat well. happy with that. then let them carry on imposing this time to buy. i think the population in croatia and elsewhere they will easily. you're satisfied with the european union. what the european union. it was the notorious arab spring, a series of protests, uprising and armed rebellions claimed thousands of lives ruined economies and destroyed governments only to nivia where the movement 1st began more than a decade ago, has seen a transition to a more democratic form of rule. but even that is now in jeopardy, as rachel blevins explains, more than a decade after the arab spring uprising,
9:29 pm
the one country that was celebrated as a success story by the west is now facing a political and economic crisis. just made the protests that were carried out across the middle east and north africa. and notably encouraged and sponsored by a handful of western back and jos tunisia was the only one that saw a transition to a democratic government. but politicians in the west are no longer bragging about the progress they helped foster. as kenesha was president, just over saw the creation of a new constitution that gives himself a host of new powers. this comes after he suspended the country's parliament, fired the state prosecutor, and gave himself the power to rule by decree, criticism. the government's decision has been met with backlash, including a prison sons for one independent journalist which was condemned by amnesty international tunisian authorities are perfectly free to dispute encounter what
9:30 pm
media report about them without arresting and prosecuting journalists. in any case, no civilians should face trial before tunisia, military courts, this travesty of justice must stop. so what did the people of teenager walk? well officially, 96 percent of voters supported the new constitution in a recent referendum, but only 31 percent of them actually voted on. the low turn out serves as a reminder that the transition to democracy hasn't actually been all it was made out to be. despite the praise hillary clinton gave the north african nation back in 2011. we have an enormous stake and ensuring that egypt in tunisia provide models for the kind of democracy that we want to see. that transition was rewarded with more than $1400000000.00 and funding from the us state department, as well as around $685000000.00 from washington and tories agency for international the.
