and say for example the u.k. has been honing it skills in the death by chemicals business since shakespeare's macbeth busted blatant englishness the cia james bond shakespear one thing all of my theories have in common is an insane age of conspiracy we're not taking them seriously neither should anyone but when it comes to russia and proof well we've already heard the d.n.a. arguments in the election meddling scandal the story corps practices of the russians who typically. genetically driven to co-opt. protrude international law as being substituted for hashtags ash tag russia did it. highly likely. well highly likely is indeed the term that britain its allies use in their joint statement to conclude that a mosque was culpability for the poisoning the also want russia to tell the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons about the nerve agent which was thought to have been used just all not point one norden graffiti artist has hit out at russia's side its embassy in london at the ses that dine at the r

interview u.k. foreign secretary boris johnson. thank you very much for the interview and welcome on the program faces some days ago you said that it is extremely likely that putin personally gave the order they used the nerve agent to attack their former double spine mistress creep are what they have as evidence of you and the british parliament to support this judgment well i think it's very important first of all to show that we think the the cope roots of this are not the russian people not russia we have no quarrel with with russia. i love russian and it's you know i have russian ancestry so if that's not the issue these are issue is with the kremlin and with the russian state as it currently is and the reason i said what i did was because if you if you look at the. stuff that's being used it's a no beach rock agent according to our scientists at porton down there very good begin to get the a p c w in the or organization for the prohibit of chemical weapons is coming in today to look at the sample that we have of of the nerve

and the u.k. was even when we were living in a very special time in front of our eyes incredible things are happening the process of replacing the presumption of innocence with the presumption of guilt is taking place this criminal law principle is being transferred into international relations envoy halley as an experienced chemist has talked about crimes committed by russia we've known for years that for you in order to determine the guilty party no investigation is needed today the best kind of proof is suspicion that it is no longer necessary to show to the council why to us with an unknown white substance in it it's enough to send a letter displaying an egregious attitude towards a sovereign state from there the russian ambassador went on to call for a thorough investigation of the incident and determine exactly who is to blame of what happened and he called for this to be done through the existing international mechanisms to find out who is absolutely responsible and he reassured the securit

in case of the u.k. negotiating with australia or china alongside croatia or bulgaria, what do they bring to that bargaining strength? we simply give them some of our negotiating power. i'm not being selfish. i think we are also fish. --t selfish vonnie: if you're part of the union, have been also go your own way? is that having your cake and eating it? savvas: that is a good cliche, somehow we want something and giving nothing back. with a pay a fairly sized divorce bill. vonnie: that's not exactly what i mean. you are part of a customs union and going your own way, how would that work? is that taking the best bits from both a union and not being in a union? why should a customs union allow you to do whatever else you want? savvas: it's probably the biggest rebuke you hear. this is unprecedented. the referendum was called by david cameron. we voted to leave. now we are effectively trying to make the best outcome good for all parties. a trade-free flow. the u.k. has a sizable trade deficit with the rest

in the u.k. well let's get some more reaction now from craig murray he's a former british ambassador to inspect a stand off the broadcaster and human rights activist and he's got a very interesting take on what's going on so you good afternoon to you craig look we keep hearing during way that russia is guilty of this attack but you say when you look closely at the language used by the british government to back up these claims it's deliberately vague and misleading can you just explain what you mean. yes the language used has been very careful the formulated because the scientists that the u.k. . porton down which handles chemical weapons who refused to save this nerve agent was made in russia the british government put him on the heavy pressure to say this was made russian business evidence it's made in russia so in the end the formula was agreed with the nerve agent of a type developed by russia. what does that mean it's very interesting because the nato communique said it was overtopped develo

the u.k. slovakia sweden and others teats all of these can be seen openly in sources now moscow says that it has made many attempts to cooperate with the u.k. investigators they requested a sample of the nerve agent that was apparently refused moscow says that they made numerous attempts to help with the investigation those requests were also refused and as a consequence russia has just launched its own investigation into the case of your list of polish she is a russian citizen exactly how when and if they will be able to proceed is still unclear as they will have to have some element of cooperation from the british authorities to complete an investigation so diplomacy really is at an all time low with threats and accusations flying from each camp the u.k. foreign secretary boris johnson even went as far as accusing president putin himself of ordering the murder of so close to a pile stating it is overwhelmingly likely that putin was behind the poisoning and moscow responded saying that those

and the u.k. reach a deal on a childish unphased but still no solutions for islands and vladimir putin adopts a softer tone after winning another presidential tab. thank you for joining as the syrian government has heavily criticized what it calls turkey's occupation of the town of afraid that is demanding turkish forces withdraw turkey says it now plans to expand its military operation to other kurdish held towns in syria victoria gates and be reports at least it isn't enough read so much needed aid is starting to flow in the to say they were cathal to leave the towns. infrastructure intact and have told civilians they can return to those who've already made it home does a huge sense of relief knowing. i'm talking to the people of my village have left i hope they can hear me return to your village we're comfortable here there's nothing to worry about it's quiet now. the syrian government has criticized what it calls turkey's occupation of the town and blames the united states for allowing it to h

and the u.k. reached a deal on a transition phase but still no solutions five. and where did the money go we speak to survivors of mexico's aren't great chorus still living in tents and waiting for government help six months on. how lie that sandwich is slowly recovering now across much of europe we'll see if it a little more spring like as we go through the next few days spring downpours across the mediterranean sea some theri heavy rain in and around the balkans that will slide its way for the research as we go through the next day or two still some live the showers that are coming into the bear biscay into spy and portugal will see that what's the weather just drifting its way into the western side of the mediterranean so some nasty weather in store here's a go through tuesday some rough weather in day seven celsius there for london and paris temperatures about where they should be but which should be two in moscow with a high of around freezing you'll notice this warming up here as well though

the u.k. government concluded that it was highly likely that russia was responsible for this reckless act we haven't seen anything but highly likely as of yet we have concluded that mr scruple and his daughter were poisoned with a navi shock a military grade nerve agent of a type developed by russia. if britain is so confident that it was not your gas then that means they have the chemical formula samples and the ability to produce it the united states believes that russia is responsible for the attack on two people and the united kingdom using a military grade nerve agent. we demand that material proof be provided before making any accusations against us in this high profile case. we requested the russian government to provide an explanation by the end of tuesday the thirteenth of march on how this russian produced nerve agent could have been deployed in salzburg. they provided no credible explanation we don't speak the language of ultimatums and we won't allow anyone to speak to us this way.

business in the u.k. if you're a member of the putin in a circle you really aren't allowed to put your money abroad that's part of the deal as to how you get to be part of the inner circle so so really we'd be the u.k. would be would be attacking the assets of some people who are actually very opposed to the piece of regime or. and in many ways because of the amounts of. business that is done between the the u.k. and russia are in many ways the u.k. would be cutting off its nose to spite its face of its if it starts if it started really trying to seize russian assets on any on any kind of scale so i think if they find if they find assets that they really do believe a link and have evidence a link to state insiders that would be another matter but it seems to me that's highly unlikely a very interesting aspect to keep in mind there we want to thank you so much matthew i meant senior teaching fellow kill university in the u.k. for putting this into perspective for us we appreciate it. you're watching news l

the u.k. government. said it was highly likely that russia was responsible for this. we haven't seen anything but highly likely as of yet. british prime minister of. twenty three russian diplomats and even though police are yet to announce any specific suspects. also ahead in the program claims. on the world in berlin is undermining the city's police force with criminal infiltrating its ranks. the final frontier. for the u.s. military as well trump suggests a space force. live from moscow to the world this is our international thanks for choosing us for euro news update this hour my names you know neal our top story the u.k. government has accused russia of breaching the international a chemical weapons convention the statement came out of an emergency meeting of the u.n. security council called by london over the poisoning of russian double agent surrogate script and his daughter in britain last week. the u.k. government concluded that it was highly likely that russia was responsible for this

last week and from the u.k. for various reasons for me it was because i wanted to give a speech about freedom of speech on speakers corner. and for me i am an american conservative commentator and i simply wanted to enter the u.k. of course i was going to watch martin speech but i was primarily going in to do some interviews i wanted to interview tommy robinson who is outspoken against islam and they essentially labeled him a far right leader who incites racial hatred and that's why they didn't want me to enter to interview him so huge crackdown of censorship but not only you know them banning us but also on the internet right now as we're seeing on platforms like you tube and twitter. all the bans have caused anger in some quarters that supporters are saying that while the right wing activists are being banned radical islamic preachers have been allowed to speak freely and known terrorist suspects are allowed entry into person. the bit ridiculous if you look at us that both of us are as i called an acceptable c

well yes i mean i don't think people in the u.k. realize that lloyd's bill annual bill for lawyers both in-house and external is over a billion pounds now when you look at their profits when you look at their turnover when you look at their assets that's a totally disproportionate amount of money to be spending with lawyers and it says a lot about the way they conduct themselves they know they know they're going to get sued by the regulators they know they're going to get fined and they factor into the balance sheet and there's a bigger budgets there will be legal opinions by the regulators such to regulate but don't get me going on we don't have a regulator in this country it's called the f.c.s. in the wonderful andrew bailey who hopefully now scuppered his chances of taking over from carney but you know the f c a's toothless they're frightened of r.b.s. they're frightened of lloyds they've even said publicly we can't afford a legal action with these banks so that's something that's got to be looked at but you mentioned theory i'm

well for the u.k. russia relations it's definitely a low point as charlotte has mentioned this is something the expulsion of twenty three diplomats is something that really is unprecedented since the seventy's and they were already the diplomat the relations between russia and u.k. were already very low since the death of alexander litvinenko a former russian spy who then the british inquiry concluded was murdered by russia so there was already a lot of tension already diplomatic spells but this is really another level and it's very hard to see also with this fighting of words that we see an old very clear rebuke from russia and very clear words here from the ukraine across the board really from all parties from all political parties it's hard to see how that can recover while for example blood in me putin is still going to be the leader of russia it's going to be very very strenuous indeed for for the next years because we do think that he will be reelected in russia on the weekend where it will briti

jay: it does help the u.k.. ultimately, the u.k. is a much smaller market, and in terms of financial markets and the equity market, it is made up of minors and commodity producers and banks. alix: i want to let everyone know where we are at. i think that is david davis talking now and saying, i am confident the e.u. leaders will welcome the deal that is reached , and you wind up having a deal that has been agreed to by the u.k. and the e.u. you are looking at a transition deal as part --at a transition deal and parts of the final bill. so a big breakthrough coming. david davis is now taking the podium. mr. davis says he is confident that bridget leaders will welcome a deal reached. sarah, and a world that we're , whatg about trade wars this that do for the conversation? sarah: i think it as a level of certainty that we were still wondering about in terms of what the u.k. and european negotiations would look like, and so, that does remove part of it. i think where the issues between weree and the u.k. protections were stemming from.

u.k. prime minister to resume printing blame on russia for the poison attack on a former russian intelligence officer turned british spy claims are made and threats flaunted of course without evidence. crosstalk in the poison attack in britain i'm joined by my guest alexander mackerras and london he is a writer on legal affairs as well as editor in chief of the duran dot com also in london we have charles shoe bridge he is a security analyst and a former u.k. army and counterterrorism intelligence officer and in brussels we cross to any much shown she is a former british intelligence officer and writer or across talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate alexander macarius i'd like to go to an article that you just recently wrote and the title is very telling to resume the now demands russia provide prove itself innocence and that's a very curious form of jurisprudence isn't it isn't that backwards what she's asking go ahead well that is exactl

broadcast in the u.k. to resubmit to this said that let's wait for the official response of the russian government so this deadline of wednesday seems to be what the u.k. government is putting in place and then will bring forward further measures as they've described it and we have heard a response from the russian foreign ministry to these latest developments already we have heard that moscow has described these latest statements as a circus performance they've said that this whole story is a campaign based on provocation and we've heard from the spokesperson of the foreign ministry saying that before british authorities create as she's free to freeze that new fairy tales what russia would like to see is details on the investigations on the deaths of people like the green young girl boris berezovsky who died in london and as they said many other people who mysteriously died on british soil so it's clear to say that's the way things stand now this is a story that's not going to go anywhere for quite some t

twenty three diplomats returned to russia after being expelled from the u.k. in a diplomatic row over the poisoning of a former spy. president welcomes the saudi crown prince to washington and pushes for a new arms feel. under it is a very wealthy nation and they're going to give the united states some of them well hopefully. the hash tag delete facebook is trending as people express their anger over revelations about the social net which call this thing of use it a. great to have you with us this hour my name is neil harvey. you're watching international . the twenty three russian diplomats expelled by london have arrived in moscow is the latest pictures from moscow's vnukovo court a total of eighty russians have left the british capital including family members of the expelled diplomats and other stuff these police reports from london on the latest in this standoff. is twenty three diplomats and their families so close to a hundred people who were waved off by the remaining embassy staff in the u.k. they boarded a russian government plane bound for most go a

the u.k. . received support from the us from france and . the u.k. wants to know why russia boys and this man and what russia is saying that the that we are denying that we poisoned him and this is all that they're saying. they're not saying that there is an investigation that the investigation is not completed that the results of this investigation have not been given to any courts. that the u.k. is part of the on this is a shoo in for the prohibition of chemical weapons and that is why they need to file an official request to the organization regarding this matter they're not saying that russia has expressed. the that. the u.k. needs to file this official request and that we base our actions on an international document ratified by the u.k. the u.s. and all of the countries that are so worried about what's happening right now. they told us we are not going to talk to us and this is a direct violation of the international convention. because when you. are going to do something. that was good

the u.k.'s prime minister expels twenty three russian diplomats from britain today in retaliation for the kremlin's alleged involvement in the poisoning of a former russian intelligence agent and his daughter despite police having to clear no suspects. to speak there is no alternative conclusion other than that the russian state was culpable for the attempted murder of mr and his daughter under the vienna convention the united kingdom will now expel twenty three russian diplomats who have been identified as calm declared intelligence offices tonight russia reacts to britain's measures calling them unacceptable and unjustified while promising a talent tree responds. like seven kids call on the u.s. congress to reject donald trump's new pick for cia director of her volved went to the intelligence agency's torture program. good evening a.p. i went to the fourteenth of march watching r.t. international with me kevin owen thanks for your company the news this hour in this state of an update dominate

so in that period the u.k. will have to follow all the rules of the e.u. but has no voting rights in other words it will be a rule taker and the interesting thing here is that basically the u.k. has given for that transition period it's crossed all the red lines it set itself so the jurisdiction of the european court of justice will apply for that transition period all the e.u. citizens who arrive in that period of time will be treated as though they have arrived before the transition phase and also in fisheries no taking back of control ok now garrick so why this change of heart from britain right now. i think the simple answer here is that the cliff of threats it is coming closer and closer we're almost just one year away from it now people are basically asking if i want to sell a car from the u.k. into the e.u. after march next year will it still be possible will the legal standards be applied people have been thinking about booking for flight tickets will they will that be still be possible so a lot of questions here pushing the u.k. government really

and the u.k. a woman came to both of you let me start with you beatrix exactly one year ago you said you had been weeping with joy on learning about the british yes vote are you still as happen today. i was just making a comment on that i think it's a good idea to have the people make a decision and then follow that decision this is what's happening i think this is still a good democracy is always a good idea to have and this is what's all about it has been a democratic choice there has been a huge debate on breaks it or not no breaks it and then the people took the decision and i think that's always a good thing i think we should also you can get just a well you find your joy was about the fact that britain voted yes or that in fact the decision was made i think it was both i mean i think i fought for me personally and i think it is a good example now that we can see we still see it's a year ago u.k. is still existing it's not sunk in the in the in the ocean it's not a wall came over us this is a

and the u.k. reach a deal on a transition phase but still no solutions for island as people flee the rebel enclave of eastern fayez that some are disappearing into the syrian government's jails and a warning from the u.n. on the democratic republic of congo where humanitarian needs are doubled since last year. the day off the bloody may putin swept a victory in the russian presidential election european elections observe a say the poll took place amid a climate of political concho and a crackdown on dissent a person took over three quarters of the vote suppressing the opposite of a mission from the organization for security and cooperation in europe reported electoral violations a lack of transparency and media bias undeterred the russian president is laying out his priorities for the next six years from moscow alone slee has this report. the russian president spent monday basking in the warm glow of his record breaking success he had said he wanted to reach out to his opponents and build bridges

london security analyst and former u.k. counterterrorism officer charles bridge believes it's far too early to attribute blame for the poisoning. according to the legal system for example in the u.k. if it was a person being accused of a crime they would be entitled to know what the evidence is against them and of course to be out to use their own scientists or it came to a court of law to challenge that evidence perhaps to show that actually this material this a chemical agent could have been produced elsewhere for example we know that. it's not in the ninety's the united states itself was helping to clean up plants not in russia but in his back is thrown at this material was allegedly produced and so that's just an example of how this material could have come from anywhere in fact that there are so many very many questions still outstanding over this matter and of course it's massively permit your for the government to be saying to rush or any suspect you've got to forty eight hours to respond or else we're going to take

u.k. both send diplomats packing as the controversy grows over the poisoning of a former spy and his daughter. the u.s. attorney general fires the f.b.i.'s deputy director and potential witness in the russian investigation just days before he was eligible to retire. and were on the front lines of afghanistan's battle to save these thousands of men and women struggling with drug addiction. thousands of civilians are fleeing besieged enclaves at opposite ends of syria as two major battles intensify in eastern guta close to the capital damascus a new wave of ten thousand people have left areas held by rebels in the past few hours they're headed for syrian army positions after they were to leave in a state t.v. broadcast. the command of the syrian army urges all civilians to leave the areas under control of the extremist organizations through the safe corridor we affirm that we will continue to fulfill our national and constitutional duty to defend the nation until the return of security and s

have done in the u.k. there's been a number of other deaths including the death of alexander polygyny who is a a russian whistleblower loop blew the whistle on a massive f.s.b. financial scam and he dropped dead at the age of forty four in front of his house in weybridge surrey the police refused even investigated as a murder and so from from my perspective and from for the perspective of lattimer putin. this is a country where. assassinations can be carried out without any consequence and that i believe was a huge policy failure which has led to the situation we're in right now with mr script on his daughter hold hang on for dear life in a soldier a hospital bill you've become an enemy of law to be a person you're not russian of and you've received death threats does what happened in salzburg a few days ago give you pause for thought are you safe in britain. i don't believe in safe in britain at all if you look at this situation as as i said they can go around the russian government and go around killing

they have arrived in the u.k. this week they're collecting samples of the nerve agent used from the lab that's handling it here as part of an independent investigation into what happened and the results of that are expected to take at least two weeks well the u.s. state department has voiced its support for the expulsion of the russian diplomats it's also hinted at possible u.s. measures over the script ok so the understand and support what the british government has chosen to do in terms of kicking out. the russian diplomats from its country as i just said to leslie a minute ago we're not going to preview some of our activities but we're watching closely and we may be taking actions. through more on this we can now cross live to investigative journalist dave lindorff day thank you very much indeed for joining me i can now see you which is a good sign well as we just said the u.s. may take action against russia i mean do you expect them to follow through on that threat you know who probably would do something i me

u.k. family suggested she was the victim of a hate crime british police say there's no evidence that it was racially motivated but. will we ever get to the truth inside story. hello welcome to the program i'm adrian cynic and police in the english city say that eighteen year old marion was stoffel was followed by a group of girls was virtually abused and then punched several times she was treated in hospital and released but later suffered a brain haemorrhage she died in a coma three weeks following the attack to thinks of say that they're keeping an open mind but there's no information to suggest that the attack was racially motivated however merriam's family is not so sure they're critical of the authorities in britain the police the hospital and the government for their slow response they say she'd been attacked by the same group last august's a seventeen year old arrested on suspicion of assault occasioning grievous bodily harm has been released on bail pending further investigations s

chairman of the u.k. parliament's foreign affairs committee says the poisoning of a former russian spy looks like state sponsored attempted murder prime minister trey's m a will discuss the case a national security council meeting in the next few hours so i guess cripple and his daughter yulia are in a critical condition after falling unconscious in the english city of souls break for a challenge joins us now live from moscow so roy it looks like the finger is officially being pointed at russia was moscow's response. well officially the message in moscow hasn't changed for days now since the aftermath of this of this poisoning and basically the message is this the war of what's going on in the u.k. at the moment seems to be some sort of anti russian media campaign that is basically propaganda that's what so gay lover of the foreign minister has said and there's no proof to back up all of these allegations coming out of the u.k. meanwhile russian state t.v. is busy is busy doing its thing it's basically su

well meanwhile russia is demanding the u.k. either proves its accusations in the script poisoning case or apologizes when i hear my colleague andrew fowler discuss the developments with artie's daniel hawkins so far over the last fifteen days it's very much been a predictable different arctic tit for tat the expulsion of those russian diplomats and the british diplomats likewise from moscow what we do know in terms of the wider fallout the support u.k. has received chancellor merkel one major european power leader has been in consultation with the polish prime minister mr. mori work where she has condemned russia and divided russia provide proof of what she describes as it's known involvement in this case proof of its innocence this is what she had to say we are of the opinion that there are very serious indications there russia has something to do with this now it's up to russia to show this is not the case the president of france likewise joining in the chorus implying that russia may have stockpiled or perhaps even lost cont

the u.k. government creatures that it was highly likely that russia was responsible for this reckless we haven't seen anything but hardly likely as of yet. the british prime minister reveals her reprise on moves that expelling twenty three russian diplomats even though police that are yet to announce any specific suspects. also ahead claims that the arab underworld in berlin is undermining the city's police force with criminal clans infiltrating its ranks. as the final frontier front line for the u.s. military as donald trump suggests the essence baseball. very warm welcome you watching r.t. international with me becky aaron good to have you with us this hour our top story the u.k. government has accused russia of breaching the international chemical weapons convention the statement came at an emergency meeting of the u.n. security council called by london over the poisoning of russian double agents script powell and his daughter in person last week. the u.k. government concluded that it was h

ok so emily there he's saying that the u.k. has refused his requests to have access to this evidence is this is an answer to teresa mayes ultimatum. i think that may be the russian answer for today it certainly seems like. his issuing his own sort of ultimatum to the u.k. they're demanding samples of the nerve agent that is believed to have been used he is saying that russia is willing to cooperate in the investigation if it has full access to this nerve agent and also to all the facts he also as we just heard pointed out that one of the people involved one of the victims is actually a russian citizen so that is another argument for russia being involved in the investigation going forward and in a way this is love of kind of putting putting the ball back in the u.k.'s court and this may was hoping for some kind of an admission or a concession i think that she is unlikely to get that tonight by midnight when the ultimatum runs out and instead we'll have to wait and see whether there is any response to this word and the response

the u.k.'s prime minister expels twenty three russian diplomats from britain and the tally ation for the kremlin's alleged involvement in the poisoning governor former russian intelligence agent and his daughter despite police having declared you know they. speak no alternative conclusion other than that the russian state was culpable for the attempted murder of mr scrooge powell and his daughter under the vienna convention the united kingdom will now expel twenty three russian diplomats who have been identified as undeclared intelligence officers. russia says the u.k. has offered no response to official requests in accordance with the chemical weapons convention to help the investigation earlier rejected a midnight ultimatum to answer questions about the origin of the nerve agent. and human rights advocates call on the u.s. congress to reject donald trump's new pick for cia director over her involvement in the intelligence agency's torture program and. a warm welcome you're watching r.t. inter

service providers in the u.k. and we wouldn't want the e.u. to discriminate against u.k. service providers. this is more have your cake and eat it i am guessing the e.u. is unlikely to want to allow london to continue to dominate financial services from outside the block. financial services force that's that says services and so that is particularly tricky because there is not a trade deal in the world that does really concern over all services opening the doors for services of the other partner it's usually about the goods so that's a completely different thing i assume they could certain exceptions be made some sort of a particularly channel could be found however something that we need to listen to in that speech is that by the way now sentence is a maze through the passport doing right the right to sell financial products in the eurozone under the bus and said that is not going to happen so in the city there must be many unhappy people tonight but she does hope that still market access will be possible now on that you saw it depends on who you listen to some people in
