let's get into that with ortiz saskia taylor here in moscow. high saskia and we've not heard us have been saying both sides following them meeting. what's the main takeaways ah, well, that was a lot of hype around the school, but it also at the same time, very little expectation that would be major breakthroughs. and i think that is probably the big takeaway of the day off to that phone call in which number of topics was discussed. and sy, by wolf had to specific stupidity, regional stability or regional context. rather including with a ron. i would discuss both sides have now issue statement and i will say that there is quite a big difference in both the content and, and the tone. * they're all 3 points in which they do converge across the us and russia will continue to walk diplomatic newton forward to that. the bulk of the conversation was dedicated to ukraine and 3 that indeed bytes and did lay out punitive measures. ah, if any type of attack, what to happen on the ukraine for the difference is there are quite a few regarding ukraine on the

all of us here at ortiz or national wishing you a very merry christmas as saskia taylor will be here at the desk in half an hour. so i am with more of your worldwide headlight. ah 0, one of the major fights, chance are merged. good with president bush junior was in 2008 this so called bucharest company. at that stage, the united states actually wanted for georgia and ukraine to get them a nato membership to start the so called membership action plan. and it was germany that stop that and then said, no, no, we don't want to do that because these countries will not add to the stability of nato, which is one of the prerequisites and the needs of treaty for all those driven by dreams shaped bankers. those with there's things we dare to ask in ah ah i.

quite latree, in this case, european systems of course because of all of that rolls downhill. saskia taylor, thank you for. there's been a bit of a surprising twist and the migrant started off on a bellow roast poland border. a polish border soldier has defected to bela roast and requested, get this political asylum. and he's made an appearance on national television, explaining his reasons less learn more about this right now. crossing live to watch, isa ilia. katrinka alia, good evening to you. can you tell us more about the soldier? what exactly has happened here? warry, good evening. well, at this point we definitely know that this man who was born in 1996 has indeed defected. and the people among the most senior ranks in the polish ministry have admitted that they are absolutely furious. the man's commanders have been fired and the defense minister says that this soldier was an offender and that he wasn't even supposed to serve at the border. the minister once punishment for those who sent him there. a soldier who went missing yesterday had serious problems of the law and resign from t

and he, saskia taylor has the story. turns out the famous fact checkers who are busy labeling things false party, false misleading. i've actually been a bit loose with well, the facts. facebook yet again found itself in court. this time up against a journalist, he didn't like the day slapped a partly full sticker on one of his post. so he sued for defamation. i'm because facebook where he spent millions of dollars on legal fees over the years and got creative this time and claimed that front checkers don't decide what's false. so not based on fact, what a ridiculous idea, but on their opinion, hence the title, fact checkup. and because opinion in america is sacred, you can't sue it. it's a very, very nifty loophole. but just to really escape any liability whatsoever. facebook double down on how it gives it fact checkers. a very long leash, though miss identifies potential misinformation, for fact checkers to review and rate. it leaves the ultimate determination where the information is false or misleading to the fact checkers. and though mets as designed is platforms so that fact che

c. saskia taylor disgust washington's response to the crisis. why didn't sad what for what? that is? no federal solution. i don't think that is something that one wants to have from the president. there never was a federal solution to a virus that spreads more easily than chicken box and with each to varian as becomes more and more of the early, the idea that there's some policy or some politician going to stop it. we should have been a, acknowledging that this is not a pandemic and that this is and demick, at least a couple of waves ago. politicians that's a 1st duty is not only did g d p and inflation and everything, but basically save the health of their, of their countrymen, and this needs to be done. this was not done. joe biden got elected because of donald trump's of failed handling cove. it in the minds of voters in coming up on the year that he was inaugurated and we have covered as bad as it's been certainly case wise. we can now add up all the rough weeks for biden, to rough year for by 62 percent of americans. now, double chance, they said that when we get to a c

rival, though the mood was rather different in socialist countries like china, my colleagues, saskia taylor earlier. i look back on those are well changing events with a panel of guests. the, the collapse of the soviet union is don't political leadership. and that is a job is the main person who bears responsibility. one of the reasons why he was so unsuccessful was he attended economic, economic, and political reform at the same time. and the other thing was that he had anatomy, boris yeltsin. and they fell out. they hated one another, now had yells and go bunch of work together. the show would you probably been with us today. that's all we had to reform. those reforms are absolutely necessary. the gorbachev was working on 2 fonts, one to reform the soviet union inside, and also to reform its relations with the capitalist world. and he tried his efforts there failed because of the inability of the united states in russia. the union then russia to, to come to terms we'll say that see in the pay say that space, the number of conflicts, whether that's nicole and a car back from touch cheapest

saskia taylor explains. it's not easy being the european commissioner for quality, because when the rest of your colleagues and brussels are figuring out how to stop the us from overheating, how to stop migrants from drowning it, see how to resuscitate the economy and how to mandate vaccinations without starting revolution you have to focus on the really serious issues. ah, with john? yes, the current commissioner hadn't that dolly has been busy drawing up guidelines for inclusive communication, an operable goal? the thing is helena miss, right? the room. it's been a long, 2 years since cove. it fast rocked up people. a tired christmas is warm and cozy and it already got stolen last year. moreover, europe is overwhelmingly christian. so when the document got leaks that wasn't exactly here to have fans outside her door to the young. i think this document is absolutely offensive. everyone must be proud of their origins and traditions, but also of the religious faith. there is a lot of hypocrisy distorting chri

they're reaching an all time high since the arrival of the microns strain are chief saskia taylor discussed with some of our guests washington's response to the crisis thus far. why didn't sad what for what? that is? no federal solution. i don't think that is something that one wants to hand from the president. there never was a federal solution to a virus that spreads more easily than chicken box and with each to varian as becomes more and more of the early. the idea that there's some policy or some politician going to stop it, we should have been acknowledging that this is not a pandemic. and that this is endemic, at least a couple of waves ago. politicians. that's the 1st duty is not only did g d p and inflation and everything, but basically saved the health of their, of their countrymen, and this needs to be done. this was not done. joe biden got elected because of donald trump's of failed handling of cove. it in the minds of voters in coming up on the year that he was inaugurated and we have covered as bad as it's been certainly case wise. we can now add up all the rough weeks for bide

also ortiz saskia taylor joining us here in the studio. we are back in just a 2nd a to what we got do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i'll see how that strategy will be successful, very critical of time, time to sit down and talk with oh, it is good to have you with us today. so in a landmark court case, facebook is admitted that it's 3rd party fun checks are just opinions. a journalist who's supposed to been flagged as full. so now waging a legal battle against the social media giant accusing it of defamation. let's get more to the full story with us. he's us husky. taylor joining us here in the studio . sounds good. good evening to you. some, a cooling this about michelle revelation. you know, when it comes to facebook old matter these days, i mean, these revelations of really hardly surprising. what for the details, do you know on this? while facebook might have got itself and you name matt to but it se

the kremlin and the white house have revealed the key talking points are t. saskia. taylor can tell us more. there was a lot of hype around this cool, but at same time, very low expectations in any major breakthrough would happen. and not indeed seems to be the case here. after that phone call in which a number of issues was raised ranging from cyber warfare to strategic stability, to regional issues such as iran. both sides have come out with statements now and i will say it's very interesting to see how the 2 of them paint very different portraits of both the content and the tone of the phone call. i thought, said there are 3 points on which they do converge. the fust is not the u. s. on russia, we'll continue to walk diplomatically together. moving forward to that, the bulk of the conversation. i was dedicated to ukraine and 3 that indeed bite and did warn of a serious punitive measures in case of any attack on ukraine. now for the differences on ukraine, the u. s. statement quite broadly said that really all that happened was that the president boynton expressed his com

after posts related to their work were flagged as false are t. saskia taylor takes up the story. 12 facebook might have got a self and new name matter, but it seems that it's up to its old trick. the age old question of whether it's a free and open platform. or in fact, a giant tech company that is to censoring anyone. it does like, has yet again, re emerge. now, the latest rub resignations transpired from a neural suit, filed against facebook by john list, and not because one of his posts from about last year's californian wild fires, was fac, checked, and labelled party fault. so he said for defamation, as you said, but the social media platforms response has been to lift up. it sounds and say when it can't be defamation, because they slack, check us, we're packing out to win. the world of nasty misinformation are actually surprise 3rd party people who decide what is full, so not based, not on frank's but on opinion. and because this is america opinion is sacred. stossel claims focus on the fact check articles written by climate feedback. note, the labels are fixed through the facebook, bu

while the cries for help are apparently dismissed. asi saskia taylor spoke to the groups leader, but 1st looks at one particular case of sex abuse in a women's jail. meet princess. so we andromeda love formerly known as hobby bang. i'm an ex inmate at the washington correction center for women and one of 3 transgender prisoners who transferred that this here. but why are we talking about this individual and not the thousands of others who've passed through the same doors? after being sentenced to prison, after being found guilty of having had sexual relations with the 12 year old girl bingham decided to identify as a woman and be called andromeda love. in this way, you want to be transferred to the correctional center for women in washington. once there, he was found by prison stuff along with his cell mate, an inmates with a developmental disability in a bed and without clothes for following this incident, prison all far tis determined that love had raped her vulnerable soul mate, who was already a victim of sexual assault even more troubling prison, self allegedly didn't find a rep

the steel, darcy, a should never have had the life any impact that it did at ease saskia taylor takes a look now at how an obsession with the collusion narrative fled to holes in the dossier being ignored. dossier, the dossier that controversial document it alleges overt knowing collusion was. 1 a bomb shell. oh, what a fall from grace. once every democrat favorite bedtime reads, now lining trash cans all over washington dc. yes, this still tulsa is. well, i'm truly toast. no corroborating evidence has emerged in intervene in the years to support many of the specific claims in the dossier and government investigators determined that wonky allegation that mr. trump st. louis michael gordon had met with russian officials and break during the campaign was fulls 5 years after the rest of the world realized that the mainstream, nita has find a quote on that. some things really are too good to be true. and a former, am i 6 off, so spilling the dots and how trump and co approaching to steal the white house in a crime. and bunker in between cavorting with prostitutes in a hotel room is one of

earlier i discuss the situation with our correspondent saskia taylor. while europe's energy crisis might be a hot topic, but sauce me, it does look like it's going to be a cold winter on the continent. because while gas prices have spike, the gas itself is running low and i'm talking dangerously record lows. in fact, your pink gas stored supplies haven't been this spot in a decade, on average, across the block. 3074 percent full, that's down to 94 percent last year. and germany in particular is on edge. since the coldest pulse of winter is still ahead, the relatively low gas reserves should be used carefully. if we keep withdrawing gas at the current rate, the level will be very low by february. so no buffer, no real resolved, that anyone can sort of depend to and these really tight times and things do seem to be going from bad to worse. because state owned electricity to france or e t f. now that it will be shutting down to of its nuclear reactors because of safety reasons. some pipes are power and you need repairing on top of that and not the to have

let's get some details done from ortiz saskia taylor who's been following developments at least developments at that. we know and not exactly sure what exact was spoken about. i would say at this stage southgate, but we do know they get off. busy at least to a friendly start oh absolutely. the much anticipated pretty high step stakes video conference call between the russian and u. s. presidents has concluded they took over just a little 2 hours to finish that it is of course to audi. say, what was agreed. we are expecting statements from the white house on the criminal in due course, but while we might not yet have any official, why, as to what was said, reaction is coming in. we've had already from the austria and foreign ministry, praising the 2 for gathering, getting together rather in these very tense time. the on the side, i was also just looking at some headlines out that it seems that joe biden has already managed to disappoint some because clarity people were hoping and expecting him to talk top with his russian counterpart. and it said i in the only footage that we've seen so far,
