that could mean lengthy prison sentences for an avanti staffers and even some of his supporters not avani himself has been in prison for the last 3 months after having been sentenced to 2 and a half years in prison but it's clear the authorities aren't stopping there is that because the kremlin fear the. investigative journalism the political documentary is that not all these team has been produced well that is definitely what sets new vonnie apart from say your average opposition figure writes his anticorruption foundation has been producing documentaries for more than a decade investigating put into inner circle his personal wealth and their latest documentary is called pitance palace and that racked up more than 100000000 views but these new restrictions on the f b k mean dept that organization can now no longer post anything online and if the court does rule that the f b k is indeed an extremist organization and even sharing their content or linking to their articles or videos could be deemed a criminal offense which could be problematic for russian journalist reporting on this story

they're disappointed or 1st thing is are i strongly opposed to the combined and avani question with economic sanctions and especially with the gas pipeline laws for him to why we do that. there is no reason to combine it. we should, we should look at a separately imagine when mystica shockey was murdered in the saudi arabian consulate in istanbul, where the evidence is clear, different in the money case, new one ever tried to connect it with all oil business, that saudi arabia sophists and why we do that with russia. the 2nd is that we see a clear illegal 3rd party sanction by the us again, small stream to which connects russia and germany directly from natural gas. and now obviously to the money is used to justified is illegal sanctions. and to make pressure on the pipeline project. and that is not russian policy. that is anti-rational sentiment from the us and from parts of western europe. and suv of my position is let's separate it. and then if we go to this is as an isolated case, then of course we should also all the question that or that or a and in the room. we should share the inform

traditional shia symbol of blood spilled on justly and a call to avenge the person who was killed a multiple avani and military leaders of promising to retaliate for sunday moneys killing a top revolutionary guard general has threatened attacks on ships in the gulf and to punish americans. should wait as a defense analyst in washington d.c. and he says the attack may work in the favor the u.s. in the long run. the tensions will probably rise initially we're seeing that now that will persist for a while but long term this could actually reduce tensions if the u.s. strategy is laid out by president prime succeeds which is to deter iran from making further attacks and we're sure our allies about us the capabilities and so on so as usual president from his comptroller taking these kind of high risk decisions for high potential high payoffs later on it's always a challenge in these situations the u.s. needs to wants to persuade other countries about why it took a decision to cite force protection but if you reveal too much information that means that the future attackers are going to take advantage of
