sure that we will have normal relations with russia russia have a right to be sure. he's its. borders will be in the will not to bring in the straits or for that and in today's situation we should take this into account because the world has been changed a lot and very seriously and then absolutely sure if georgia wants to restore territorial integrity of georgia wants to be a. normal country and to develop the normal way georgia should be clear. startles georgia should not be member of nato first of all nobody will just. georgia to be a member of nato when we have a conflict when we have two russian military bases this is paul policy and them very said today's georgian government they continue with this illusory declaration of sending georgian membership in nato and they are not brave enough to begin direct dialogue and communication with the russian president and with russia to be for georgia nato membership is not acceptable it doesn't mean i also ask you about crimea or heard you say that you believe. crimea is a closed file for russia that it will never go back

with russia but we have to remember israel has the border with syria russia does not have a border with syria and if you are an army serviceman that from the israeli side you hear russian military on the army radio so there is a big question what is the russian is doing there i don't think every military operation that israel will have to conduct in order to protect itself and of prevailing previously heard it was decided in the meantime on the behalf of the syrian government we need to point out of course that on behalf of the government russia is there in the country. yes and that by itself would we were talking about the relationship between the two countries russia giving. russia didn't give one defense system to the syrians but they give a whole lot of others and i don't think it'll make israelis say will the russians are playing unfair we do understand that russia has its own interests and like we heard before russia is trying to be ok with all the sides and that's very very difficult very delicate work that has to be done there but i don't think israel can always tell every singl

russia is country with. very serious strengths in the region and we have lots of problems with the russian federation so but these were important from my point of view we have to discuss these issues and problems ways of russia when you have problems you have to discuss and only the people are calling me a suppression politician but was out a day or so you are here on your show russia as much as you're willing to talk to russia i want to speak with russia i want to find solution was the russian and georgian no problems i want to go establish friendly relations with russia because i'm sure that this is important for my country let me ask you specifically about friendly relations because the political relationship between the two countries is still very tenuous but this year we have witnessed a significant increase in bilateral trade and in tourism the number of russians visiting your country so far this year has exceeded a million and that's from what i understand. a quarter more than last year so it seems th

confrontation with russia. but for us there's no contradiction between being firm, strong in our approach to russia as we are but at the same time seeking dialogue and try to reduce tensions with russia because russia would not go away. russia will remain our biggest neighbor and i know very well politician coming from norway, a small country bordering russia that it is possible to have a firm, predictable approach to russia but at the same time work with dialogue with russia, even during the coldest periods of the cold war, norway was able to have a working relationship with russia on defense and security issues. our military speak regularly with russian military up in the north. on energy and environment, we agree the borderline but that was not despite nato, despite norway's membership in nato but it was because of nato's membership in nato because the nato membership provided the strength and the platform to engage with russia. so i say this because we will all be losers if we move to cold war and arm's rac

we have heard vladimir putin dominating russia, representing russia and guiding russia for a quarterot run again. after everything we have discussed in this interview, do you think that russia, after putin, can continue with this mix of aggressive nationalist policies which have so soured the relationships we have discussed in the course of this interview or does russia need to go in a new, different direction? given the next six years and after, russia will pursue open policies and work with all the partners who want to be on the same basis on the rule of law, an international rule of law. russia wa nts to an international rule of law. russia wants to pursue the policies that will feed russian people, the russian population, increased the quality of life, raised talents, conduct in a way and build institutions that are sustainable for the future. my question, does russia need a change of direction? we will welcome our partners to work with us together. on both sides, we need to make steps to re—establish trust and establish mutual respect. those things can be done only simultaneousl

russia that. the west when it criticizes russia is not big but they haven't. basically tried to undermine russian full steam and i think russia has looked at us we have our own problems we have our own disputes we have to deal with for example gender equality we have to deal with the way we treat option the really really old. particularly the way we treat homosexuals because i think for homosexuals it is still very biggest news about being russian and it shouldn't be that way but it's not my place and it's not the west good place to lecture russia about these things well i know you're very reluctant to criticize russia openly but you just mentioned this attitude towards the community and if you actually look at the polls you will see that russians by and large. homophobic they for example if you ask people do you mind homosexual couple living in the apartment next door to you they would usually say the majority would say no i don't care and yet in the political. environment these days you hear a lot about the traditional values the patriarchy and so on and so

for example given all the reasons for russia and china to be poles at kohls. military cooperation then today's action by the united states is a major boost in that direction definitely china will not step down china i think will have all the moral reasons to increase its military cooperation with russia and possible even important more airplanes and and high missile system sanctions by the united states against the chinese military will further review the incentive on the chinese product to improve its relations with these states and i think eventually turned on me completely this recopy that the states. much touted promote program was supposed to be the biggest women support initiative in afghanistan but according to a report by washington watchdog but i'm not a failure hundreds of millions of dollars of u.s. taxpayer money was spent the goals were huge but in reality only a few dozen women well. i mean. since two thousand and one the door has been reopened for afghan women they joined the police the army and entered politics and together we can help women an

could affect relations between russia and israel. whatever side you ask no one's guilty culpable or liable everyone blames someone outs israel holds the assad regime whose military shot down the russian plane fully responsible for this incident israel also holds iran and hezbollah a terrorist organization accountable for this unfortunate incident this regrettable incident is the result of the usual israeli impudence and rodimus who always use the filthiest means to achieve their unsavory goals and enact their hostility in our region was that the syrians who launched a missile while fending off a surprise on their country was at the arena and his by law who apparently had an arms factory that just had to be bombed or was it the israelis who reportedly hid behind russian aircraft because presented objective data testify that the actions of israeli fighter pilots which led to the loss of life of fifteen russian servicemen either a lack professionalism were an act of criminal negligence to say the least. russia holds israel responsible t

russia and the united states have access to sites in russia. we have a hologram system so we can cap the war has and what they can do. we can catch them and they can catch us. if we insisted at the table with the iranians, we have a treaty on nuclear weapons, with russia, the two largest nuclear powers in the world, we want to put those verifications in our agreement with iran. we want to come in and expect yours. it was the perfect predicate to do that. secretary kerry decided not to but it would have been a great way. when you get worried about compromising your future by talking about what you might get not like it, do you run the risk of letting them think they can get out from under responsibility and they would be more willing to take it manage of it than we would. point, both of you asked this question. when the vice president announced the space force and the president announced the space force, and experiment stations the russians have done, the defensive nature but potentially offensive, would you equalize the space force enthusiasm y

factor -- # russia factor. we welcome all of you to join in the conversation via twitter. i would like to make introductions to our panel. .. to disseminate information. you protection. also with the justice foundation. we were going to session this afternoon we have a short video and then a panel discussion for 40 minutes and then you will open to question so shall we see the video? >> this video is a small clip of those programs in russian. which are the subject of the defamation lawsuit and in the federal courts. so the program accused me to be a cia agent who murdered my friend. in 2006. because the cia wanted to tarnish russia. all of this was in the context of the russia topic and a in the name of it of course is to say that the poisonings had nothing to do with russia. so you will see the main person who with his own story to be critical of putin in this case. and then to start working with the russia propaganda. the without further ado. [inaudible] >> no. she did not have cancer. they just killed her be

earlier this year who was very quick to remind russia that. you know israel didn't join and western sanctions against russia for its actions in crimea it didn't kick russian ambassadors and diplomats out of its country like a lot of other countries did following the poisoning of the former russian spy in england. i think israel has many points of leverage that are suresh are first of all and most the most proximate is that israel can launch another set of airstrikes against military defenses or against iranian military defenses in selden syria could kill many or any revolutionary guard members who are vital for russia's military campaign may tenth that's the most proximate example in other ways is it reveals important to russia because it's a major trade partner in the middle east is also very important partner for russia's broader collective security goal russia wants to be involved ideally in the gaging in dialogue and one of two major conflicts israel the iran iran and saudi arabia and trying to leverage a strong relations with all these po

and russia separated. these comments can be added to a very long list of ways the president has gone out of his way to cozy up to putin. i wish this resolution work necessary but here we are 60 days after the helsinki summit and we still don't know what president trump said or committed to. we area coequal branch of government . indeed, in theconstitution, we are the first article. the executive is the second . it is time that we take off our red hats for our blue hat and put on our red white and blue hats. as fellow americans and members of congress, we have a responsibility to do our job. let's get answers. let's pass positively this resolution. thank you and i yield back. >> thank you. we go to lewis frankel of florida's thank you mister chair and i urge the support of this resolution by my colleague that directs the trump administration to send the house copies of all documents and communications between trump and putin during the helsinki summit. the american people deserve to know the truth of what w

russia helped. goes from there is is what remains to be seen. the world anti-doping agency voted in the week to reinstate russia's anti drug body thursday a decision ended in a three year suspension for alleged state sponsored doping. the great majority of the world anti-doping agency's executive committee decided to reinstate the russian anti doping agency and is compliant with the world anti-doping code one hundred given russia a list of commitments to be reinstated one point was access to data and samples stored in a moscow lab russia's agreement to do that it seems was enough for one furthermore the main sticking point had been that report by the canadian dr richard mclaren which alleged that russia run a state sponsored doping scheme the list called for it to acknowledge complicity in the doping moscow denies such a program ever exist but in a letter to russia's sports minister admitted that there were issues when the country's anti-doping agency the reinstatement was widely met with dissent though as a sports correspondent jeff ski reports

bad fantasies about russia the real russia is not what we're being told about. i want to go and i want to see what it's like and my process of disenchantment from the western propaganda machine against russia it really began pretty much in interest thousand and fourteen with the events in ukraine and the way in which they were being reported now i hope we will go into the ukrainian events a little bit later on into the program but. you mentioned the this negative image of russia and russia is definitely not an easy country it's a very complex society it's sometimes a very contorted country and i think we the russians are the first to you know and experience that and i think that actually goes to the very notion of russian patriotism its lobbying russia is it's a bit like caring for the disabled loved one you know the disability you hate them but you love the person all the more because of that and that is actually i think the most moving part of your book for me that you accept disability rather than the typical western scolding that russia is not good enough bu

russia russia means no i agree and i think that this this replacement of facts with this emotional rhetoric kind of demonstrate that in the obviously building this case anything but pure evidence i guess overall i would be a bit concerned about the state of journalism as you opened up with because. this is just emotional rhetoric about every time they do put forward evidence we often find that you should this new evidence. but also several occasions we see that it's been disproven be it that the for example russia hacked the electric grids or the voting booth but what happens after these journalists obviously got a completely wrong. or very early start yeah but i'm not a journalist. accountable are the new selfless how we can get people been fired ok c.n.n. fired a couple of people but overall the recall the rush overall i think. it's this sense they get a lot of their clicks and at the end of the their efforts in terms of mobilizing international opinion construction of steel succeeded and trump yeah mark you know first of all i want to equate us to march for fox there was i don't want to

russia's s. three hundred the air defense system that's russia has held off from supplying to the syrian military until now. within two weeks a modern surface to air missile system the s three hundred will be handed over it's capable of intercepting air assault weapons on a range of more than two hundred fifty kilometers and at the same time can hit multiple aerial targets having an advanced facility and high fire rate the system will strengthen syrian air defense combat capabilities significantly defense minister sure you gave little doubt why the russians have changed their position but you're cool it is you that has them going to let me make a point at the request of the israeli side and twenty thirteen we halted delivery of the s three hundred which was ready to be shipped to syria while syrian service personnel were given appropriate training today the situation has changed not by our fault the defense ministry holds israel responsible for the deaths of fifteen military personnel a week ago

public criticism of russia put its policy in syria for example when it was in. that province because at the same time because at the same time turkey had this all of branch operation not syria we're also going. smoothly it went so also with the collateral damage and with. civilians it's so it's kind of tit for tat and i want to say that indications that erdogan is quite critical of syrian regime and bashar lots of it doesn't mean that he blames russia for that and also doesn't mean that he supports russia on its policies well alexi we have to take a very short break now but he will be back in just a few moments stay tuned. you accuse russia of launching such an attack. i think it's quite unrealistic scenario. and i would have said you think it's unrealistic and yet apparently on the turkish media there are already some fears that i being broadcast on to a large audience of russians supposedly preparing something like that i think that would go i mean if that happens there was a position that will go way beyond a current. kind of constellation of powers in the re

recently as a ship that week to the world anti-doping agency reinstated russia's anti drugs body may just step the old saying many of the country's top athletes competing on the world stage. on the confirmation hearing for president from supreme court pick it stagnates in accusations with brett kavanaugh proving to be one of america's most divisive nominees ever. international weekend live from moscow with me kevin owen for the next thirty minutes around that then of the big news stories of the last seven days starting with this right now russia's defense ministry saying that the israeli military holds full responsibility for the downing of a russian military aircraft in syria this week which killed all fifteen servicemen on board in a statement to the media just a bit earlier the russian military presented a detailed timeline of the incident concluded much more difficult. expressed its concerns as soon as the s three hundred deal with syria was signed israel concluded. with these new air defense systems syria would have been able to cover all of israel's airspace that means that dam

all the stories of going to the world anti-doping agency reinstated russia's anti drugs body a major step toward saving many of the country's top athletes competing on the world stage. but us looking like maybe a no deal now the u.k.'s breck's it would go c.h. and still with the e.u. as the bloc project st amazing can only plan. just a framework for economic cooperation will not work at this late stage in the negotiations it is not acceptable to simply reject the other side's proposals without a teacher have an explanation and counterproposals. hello welcome this is not international live at the weekend from moscow with me kevin now in for the next thirty minutes around of the big stories of the last seven days then starting with this earlier russia's defense ministry today said israel bowl full responsibility for the downing of the russian aircraft off syria's coast this week which killed all fifteen servicemen on board in a statement to the media the russian military presented a detailed timeline of the incident as they saw it concluding that the actions of the israeli air force le

russia's s. three hundred the air defense system that's russia has held off from supplying to the syrian military until now. within two weeks a modern surface to air missile system the s three hundred will be handed over it's capable of intercepting air assault weapons on a range of more than two hundred fifty kilometers and at the same time can hit multiple aerial targets having an advanced facility and high fire rate the system will strengthen syrian air defense combat capabilities significantly defense minister sure you gave little doubt why the russians have changed their position but you're cool that issue that has them going to let me make a point at the request of the israeli side and twenty thirteen we halted delivery of the s three hundred which was ready to be shipped to syria while syrian service personnel were given appropriate training today the situation has changed not by our fault the defense ministry holds israel responsible for the deaths of fifteen military personnel a week ago

russia and what goes on in russia and i think there is genuine genuine regret that this happened by the hands of the syrian air force so from a military point of view i think that your correspondent summed it up very well that the discussions were open transparent and professional and that's i think the coordination that is taken place in syria between russia and israel especially when it comes to the iranian threat which is a very serious threat for israelis at the had been significant cooperation before this precedent here isn't that between israel and russia to avoid any kind of catastrophes like this thinking about the golan heights that disputed territory between israel and syria whether it be to make sure things like this couldn't happen now is something that israel could do to reduce the chance of this happening again it's even considering things. well well again i think that israel has maintained all along that iranian presence of any kind in syria is is not. is threatening to israeli citizens and israel reserves the right to take any action to combat that or to counter that and

has to offer they were designed with the intention of russia selling them abroad so now with russia being one of washington's main competitors when it comes to arms exports well it just looks like that one washington is targeting these particular areas of russia's economy what it is really doing is just trying to squeeze one of its main contenders out of the market especially if you take into consideration what previously had been said by the state department you know it goes against our policy to have a nato ally such as turkey use an asse four hundred system part of the problem with that it is that it is not in iraq robel with other nato systems and so we are against the having some of our partners and allies around the world potentially purchase us for hundreds it would trigger carrots is not going to get into that but we have made very clear what could trigger sanctions for other countries and entities around the world now the united states insists that china just happened to be sorting this pleasure damaged on that it was not the target of these new sanctions while beijing as w

ambassador to russia. is it possible that the president jeopardized our national security when he was alone in the room with putin? without these documents, we may never know. i just want to conclude by repeating that congress has the authority and the oversight duty to demand this information that is critical to our national security. i urge we use this responsibility and adopt this resolution. i yield back. mr. royce: do any other members seek recognition? mr. beaks. >> thank you, mr. chairman. the camera of history is rolling. we do not live in a time where congress can just sit back. in fact, we live in extraordinary times. we cannot fool ourselves and say this is ordinary times, because it is not. and history is looking to see what is the united states house of representatives, what is the congress, going to do to make sure it is utilizing its oversight power of the executive branch, an equal branch of government? and so we cannot pretend that this is a normal circumstance. in fact, a number of my rep

the battle for the syrian government and its main russia appear to be preparing for an all out offensive for the rebels it would likely be the last stand after more than seventy years of fighting beyond the military and human cost what will an assault on it live tell us about syria's future this is inside story. hello and welcome to the program. syria's civil war may soon and but not without one final humanitarian crisis as the government of bashar al assad has reclaimed one city and region after another its opponents have been driven into smaller areas many are now considered traitors in the northern province of idlib recent statements from the government and the russia. push to retake this last major rebel held area may begin soon we began with this report from stephanie decker who's just across the border from it live in the turkish city of antakya. all eyes now on the rebel held province of the syrian government has always said it was going to take it back and it seems an offensive is now imminent what form will this offensive take that remains the question will it be limited will it

and russia will patrol this territory to ensure compliance right after the talks are russia's defense minister announced that there is going to be no military offensive on their p. also added that all of the details of the agreement which was a reach today will be discussed with the syrian government of very soon during the upcoming talks the situation in the province of idlib has been a crucial topic of discussions for weeks on the international stage between syria russia turkey the u.s. and iran so now this decision is surely important as it eases this threat of escalation on the ground. the russia ticket deals already gone reaction in the us establishment this intelligence chief calling the move quote encouraging same by cheaper fessor of international relations at ankara's middle east technical university says the two leaders have taken a crucial step towards syrian peace the decision is very important indeed it leaves thirty more months there is no floor of migration there is no fighting there is no expected clashes between the government forces and the radical groups i think . s

meanwhile, russia has persisted in its violation of the inf treaty through russia's cruise missile programs. this administration has utilized new diplomatic, economic and military measures to pressure russia to return to compliance. the lack of any meaningful steps by russia to do so diminishes our hope that it wants to preserve the inf treaty professor said many said many times the status quo is unsustainable and our patience is not unlimited. on chemical weapons, russia has bought every effort to compel the regime to stop using chemical weapons. russia is a perpetrator of chemical weapons use with the brazen assassination attempt salisbury u.k. using a chemical agent. we then post the first round of sanctions on russia required by the chemical and biological weapons control and warfare elimination act. we have been clear that we will continue to execute our mandate under this law. meanwhile he did the united states and allies has reinforced the declaration remains committed to conserving, strengthening and modernizing the euro atlantic conventional arms control regimes and confidence and

all to cover the world anti-doping agency reinstates russia is. a major step toward seeing many of the countries. competing on the world stage. the confirmation hearing for president gerald ford stagnates. with brett kavanaugh proving to be one of america's most divisive nominees ever. with the big stories from the past seven days on right up to the moment. well this is the weekly on r t international law and welcome. russian military plane on monday night's off the syrian coast the blame game has been intensifying between the main parties directly or in directly involved in the incident our senior correspondent the of breaks down the mouth it's a bad really bad situation there's the tragedy fifteen people dead to friendly fire . and then there's the fallout everyone's blaming everyone i meet on the jets deliberately created a dangerous situation for the war ships and aircraft located in that area while it may have been a syrian missile that down the plane it was israel that set the stage says russia israel bomb syria again the syrians defend them

if russia didn't act. moment back in two thousand and fourteen that the nature would continue pushing across its border and there would be no other way to escape that direct confrontation how much do you crave at that oh very much so i mean there was a sort of a rehearsal for crimea some years before in georgia of course went under a lot of american encouragement severely government but very provocatively towards russia and a couple of ethnic group from georgia and you know and i think i forget the name of that number when the current dutch and russia drew a line that russia moved in with support for the local local governments local if the groups and drew a lot and that was a dress rehearsal if you like. ukraine became the real thing because for many years before the the overthrow of the in the case which government for many years before two thousand and fourteen there was all kinds of encouragement being given to nationalistic elements in the crowd and the russian element by the united states and by cert

and europe and russia in the united states and sanctions on russia that's really pushed russians in particular to look further east something they've done reluctantly gradually over time and the chinese have welcomed that but again there's also been a lot of mutual suspicion from the chinese side as well so what we're really seeing is jus a political circumstances driving these two political leaders to move their countries closer together and a lot of that has started with top level political rhetoric and language lots of leader level meetings but step by step it is being underpinned by initiatives the two have agreed for example after a lot of debate and concern that there to you the eurasian economic union and the silk road economic belt initiatives in central asia they would try to make them cooperate and work together we've seen increasing cooperation and investment in through central asia and particularly building on the energy relationship and then from china's perspective the military cooperation is very important not only in this kind of exercise in training but also in chin

and russia. the men refused to show their passports that a doctor identity documents on camera they said that one journalist to carry on digging into their past lives their families they did show them to margarita simonyan she confirmed that they do matter. with her identity she made a few comments after the interview just giving some of her own prussians about their interaction i knew they were nervous and sweating a lot i had to turn up the air conditioning a lot higher than usual and still they were sweating and wiping their foreheads which obviously happens when people are nervous there could be a lot of reasons for it but i understand this was the first interview in their lives but they could have been nervous for other reasons as well that's also possible they refused to show their i.d.'s on camera because they didn't want to be pursued and identified further but they showed them to me that i did not run the polygraph on them as a journalist i believe what they see i saw those were the peop

from russia. cctv and other evidence records their travel to and from salisbury and crucially there are images which clearly place them in the vicinity of the skripal house at 11:58 a.m. on sunday, the 4th of march. this was moments before the attack took place, which involved placing the substance on the skripals' frontdoor handle. madam president, should any council wish, we can share copies those images. further, testing of the hotel revealed the presence of traces of the novichok substance in their hotel room. based on the thorough analysis of our intelligence, the u.k. government has concluded that the two individuals named by the police investigation are in fact officers from the russian military intelligence service, also known as the g.r.u. this is a body of the russian state. madam president, we previously, when we briefed the council before, atrnted -- attributed responsibility to russia on the basis of technical means, operational experience, and i recall the case of litvinenko here, an

russia are back in the game.doping agency voted today to lift the suspension of russia's anti—doping agency. it ends their three—year suspension which followed a major doping scandal. leading athletes and anti—doping bodies had opposed the move but at an executive meeting in the seychelles earlier today wada decided russia would be re—instated on the proviso that they met certain conditions set out by them. dan roan our sports editor has been following this story for us. dan, how surprised are you by what happened today? i wasn't surprised because it was coming. ever since the compliance review committee at wada recommended this decision was taken, it has been on the cards. it is unquestionably one of the most controversial decisions it has made. it is in defiance of an unprecedented outcry of athletes in the west and senior figures in anti—doping and uk sport as well, all of whom were asking at the very least for a postponement of this decision. the reason for that is twofold. one is the scale of the crime that

russia's u.n. envoy clashed with his u.s. counterpart over syria with russia again insisting that on separating the terrorists from rebel forces. coexistence with terrorists is impossible. which we've been fighting since the terrorist attacks in two thousand and one let's not waste time with to disinform a distraction and outright law. could be stripped of its evoking rights after being accused by any piece of breaching european values with its tough immigration policies. there is one pm wednesday september the twelfth mosque i want to call him brazen he is for this hour president putin says that the suspects named by britain over the script poisoning of the been identified by russia he was speaking at the eastern economic forum in vladivostok from way now reports. this is an absolutely groundbreaking follow up from vladimir putin to last week's statement by british authorities on the suspects in the script case the russian leader says that moscow now knows for sure who the two men are here's what exactly mr putin said we fin

turkey and russia will both patrol this territory to ensure compliance. the gist of it is getting radical islamists al-qaeda in syria for one away from the front lines withdrawing heavy weapons artillery tanks to make sure the fingers don't spark any more escalations opening up the routes allowing travel through contested territories for civilians and russian turkish troops would oversee it all patrol this demilitarized zone but there are concerns she would lose the initials abortions to the future the main concern is that the militants pose a threat to aleppo province the city of aleppo and to a military compounds in syria tartarus and it may mean. the problem is the hardest who are bent on spoiling any peace effort they have everything to lose if it falls it will mark the end of the syrian war their final defeat assad knows it wouldn't be easy or clean it seems to be for this deal it looks like the military operation has been shelved for now probably drove the military and diplomatic solution to the the decision is very important indeed the worth of was
