the person who has done the most on this front, electing saint avani is in prison. i think the possibility of war is extremely unpopular and an invasion is extremely and popular in russia but they don't have interest so this is his strategy in his decision —— or two. his strategy in his decision -- or two. ~ , ., �* , . ., two. with you're in experience of russian mindset _ two. with you're in experience of russian mindset and _ two. with you're in experience of russian mindset and what - two. with you're in experience of russian mindset and what you i two. with you're in experience of i russian mindset and what you know two. with you're in experience of - russian mindset and what you know of vladimir putin and how he operates, how do you deal with vladimir putin? i think it's important to consider that we know he is interest worthy. we know he is a bad actor in terms of having malevolence intentions, but unfortunately, he is also committed to staying in power as long as he can. so whether it's going to be bid for conflict, during conflict or after the conflic

now to the case of the russian opposition leader alexei in avani foreign ministers of the group of 7 leading nations have condemned what they describe as the confirmed poisoning of the kremlin critic for its part moscow has summoned the german ambassador of statements by his government about the case on monday nov on the awoke from a medically induced coma in a hospital here in berlin his doctors say there is undeniable evidence of ali was poisoned with a form of novacek a soviet era nerve agent the german chancellor has called a poisoning attempt attempted murder. then of all the cases a debate in the german parliament about how the government should respond one suggestion if russia fails to investigate than a volley case has been to hold the construction of the north stream to gas pipeline which is to bring russian natural gas to europe to members of the foreign affairs committee are opposed to that and favor a collective european response instead they explain the positions to d.w. the main question is not should we pursue the north stream to the main question is how should we tack

you but we don't he going to push on just a little bit because short c 100 he's a new jeep is isn't avani even popular enough to challenge president putin let me share with you shortly a great question thank you let me share with you this on my laptop what do russians think about the valley this is a recent poll and the blue people who are proven avani the orange the disapprove look how big this is in russia right 56 percent and then a good 25 percent don't care but no and then looking at people thinking in russia you think that nobody should have come back to russia because of course he when he came back he was arrested 22 percent as a tiny percentage think that that was a good idea 51 percent a neutral let's just make that a shrug and 25 percent disapprove this is a very different annex in the valley pool inside russia than they appear to be outside of russia go it. yeah tired he's not a particular tickly popular person and that's true even among liberal oppositionists a number of whom i think regarding river a certain amount of suspicion. for a number of reasons the 1st 2 were of his.

here in germany to confirm that this was a chemical weapons a substance that was used to poison and avani at the same time there is a lot of discussion about what kind of consequences that might have full the relationship between germany and russia and in the center of that is discussions about the north. no 3 in 2 pipeline gas proper.

having that here it got from the moscow times this headline russia expelled european diplomats even avani protests from the foreign ministry so there was a meeting there were conversations it did not go well he's angela merkel from frankly the fish. but it didn't his us dollars are cheering our meeting we were and swarmed over the expulsion of german swedish and polish diplomats from moscow in connection with demonstrations on the volley we considered this expulsion to be unjustified and we believe this is a very very step away from the rule of law noticeable in russia right now think here that's a hood on. brewing as the situation around it only has it escalate he said now it's international crisis what does it feel like some insight russia. but it's very important that was the community is now. stand against this a sin is sin or imprisonment. i think for that it wouldn't it is much more important what's. had the thinking satirists how many people will join this board to see how many celebrity has an opinion leaders will support no one and this is the most important because i don't think

that hopes its approach to migrants will be taken up by the country as a whole we are incest a savage avani on the outskirts of milan in the north of italy once an industrial town used to have overwhelmingly communist views dubbed the stalingrad of the country today those views have all but vanished with elections in italy just around the corner this place hopes to lead by example in tackling immigration and taller and seems to be the last of concerns and what it could do here. whatever will help the situation must be done it's very important in other countries they are already doing these kinds of things and no one gets offended because it is a warranty for us and them. we need to find the best solution possible first we need to find out how many migrants we can identify through digital fingerprints and any other systems then we need to see if this works. they are human beings too but if there are hundreds of thousands coming into italy every year we really have a problem we can't accommodate which are. common enough of that it would be very difficult for the system to work we're not alone

and we can go now to find emily sure when she is in moscow for you what am i missing avani calling off his hunger strike a what more can you tell us well it seems that extent of on these demands to see civilian doctors have been met in a post there was a new post on his instagram account seems to have been passing these posts on to his lawyers periodically and in that post he says that he was able to see doctors that he says he trusts twice now and that they have recommended that he calls off his hunger strike apparently according to that post they said that soon there may be nothing left to treat if he is if he doesn't stop his hunger strike but he has also demanded to see another doctor he's still complaining about numbness in his arms and legs so that demand goes forward and when this is all made for his flight . well he's still obviously been in prison he was this week transferred to a different prison which has a medical ward tuberculosis ward actually his lawyers say that he still is considered by the prison service to be a flight a flight risk so essentially he might you know fl

nerve agent attack last august which people aims on the kremlin russian authorities said they detained avani for violating the terms of a suspended prison sentence. a kiss goodbye and he's taken it was. arrested at passport control just minutes after expressing hope he might go free by use i'm not afraid. to go through border control cross the border and go home i know i'm right. against me are fake. just minutes earlier the plane had landed unexpectedly at moscow's sheremetyevo airport it had been diverted from a different moscow airport where it had previously been expected to land. dramatic scenes unfolded police arrested dozens of supporters who wanted to greet the kremlin critic personally authorities had declared their presence illegal and blocked access to the terminal with police vehicles some kremlin observers say the response shows the russian government is afraid of. me is dangerous otherwise they wouldn't want to imprison or kill him but he's fearless and now he's also famous even outside of russia that is exactly what the kremlin doesn't want. who are recognized by 70 or 80 perc

bridge in moscow back in february 25th teen we asked her if she thinks that this apparent attack and avani which once again reveals how dangerous it can be to speak out in russia is going to discourage the opposition movement they are not all witness in are those massive progress in the mail or rules and i think it was one of the reasons why not wisely might be poisoned because after the presidential elections was so massive for the us and this part states poor 3rd very cruel drool repression and now we've been on sunday a big march against. whom i personally regard as former president because he lost the elections so and i think that those people in the kremlin included like him or putin they're all frightened by these days from belo rules and they might think that the same can happen in russia in the aftermath of any elections and you know within that have an upcoming elections on their 13th of september and alex in a highly is very active and he introduced his role in tactic of smart loot it's called in russia and it's proved to be very effective last year and i don't think that russian

so a bit of background avani fell ill in all growth started to meth, addicts, right in russia, and was taken to berlin for treatment. germany claims that found traces of an overtopping of agent in his body and allegation later repeated by w. . however, must go says its own tests found no such substance and that bullet has repeatedly rejected requests for lafferty. we spoke with alexander sold his russia's permanent representative to hear it up. you know, he thinks the claims against russia have a very clear political motive partners in the p. c. w, against further politicize new organization, which would create deeper divisions and interrupt a normal work in the search for compromises. different countries interpret provisions of the chemical weapons convention in their own way. we should prevent any attempts to spread one's own rules in place of the established conventions of international law. our western partners and the technical secretary, when it's convenient for them refer to confidentiality clause. under this pretext, russia was refused access to key aspects of the technical sec

moscow it's the 2nd consecutive weekend tens of thousands have rallied in cities across russia to demand avani be freed. reports from opposition stronghold st petersburg. leaked. to of the opposition's challenge to vladimir putin thousands have gathered again in the center of st petersburg as they are again demonstrating for the release of opposition politician alex enough me i had of the protest the austerity is called and of many areas of the city center. for many people here this is the 1st time they have ever attended a protest until recently they didn't care about alexander valley but his arrest at a moscow airport on return from germany outraged to many russians and many are also here to demonstrate against corruption perceived to police violence and elect of democracy in russia they showed up even though organizers didn't receive a permit for the protests from the also reaches. him in the most seriously why it leads. directly in light of that secondly i'm against corruption and thirdly i'm against political prisoners in our country or the people who tell the truth in russia should be fr

to gas pipeline project with russia in response to the reported nerve agent poisoning of alec's in avani berlin says it has evidence they promised kremlin critic was targeted with never choke moscow rejects all claims of involvement and says it can't investigate without being given access to berlin's test results meanwhile the heads of key german regions have come to the defense of the major energy project the bad one is economically necessary force but it's also necessary that we stay together with the russian it's a project that plays a decisive role in the framework of altered energy and climate policy and therefore we've come to the conclusion that we want to carry on with it and to those that advocate closer ties with russia. i say that the poisoning of alexei navalny with an advanced chemical agent is not a one off. now it's time to will pump russian gas to germany and then on to other european countries via the baltic sea when completed it will stretch 1200 kilometers 90 percent has already been built it finish it will double the amount of gas falling from russia to germany constr

season i'm just looking at a clip from going to share it with you at the title was took sick situation avani test negative to talk since while mainstream media peddles criminon info let's take a look. now let's not forget just last year another so-called suspected poisoning took place when the volley was hospitalized for having a small in face he said he never had an allergic reaction before he suggested perhaps he was poisoned and his personal doctor said he could have been exposed to a toxic agents now in the end one of the turn out to be just an allergic reaction but it seems like the western media hasn't really learned from this story because they're already jumping to conclusions about the kremlin's allegedly role in this whole situation in the normal condition. and this young just wondering that the few from inside russia are generally very different from the view outside of russia does that much is the way that we understand the story. i think that. is so high profile that it is unlikely for anyone to have. to have used poison on him that isn't from the administration i don't think an

chemical weapon against development and they would have failed and at the end they would have given avani to germany doctors this makes no sense i mean you know they won't be using chemical weapons invented in the seventy's at least for for something so they said this is not just the way russia russian works or. doesn't make any sense why would russia do this right at the time where it's winning it doesn't have to do this it doesn't do this and if ali is not such a big star in russia anyways and of course he's a very popular blogger figure in russian politics but he's no threat to put an end to to the russian politics he's a he's a lost an assett so the west is using this again maybe want to show him something bad on russia because the can't stand russia that's the bottom line it's a very valid point is that what you bring up about who who profits or does the russian government profit from from carrying out such a thing we look at it in a nuanced leveled way which i really haven't seen in the west and i'm waiting to read it by line or an editorial or something saying why would they carry

this is how they approach the knockings it is to be more defensive more cautious and then hoping folk avani as he did today and luis suarez to get them the goal is put the so ours on his own that's going to be more tricky i think so that's their problem with france i think everyone apart from pol pot by playing to that level i think he's maybe five five percent off it's just sometimes comes up a little bit short it's like he's a little bit off the pace he's very lucky to have i'm going to count the next to him who is for me one of the best defensive midfield players that i've ever seen in my life. so he helps him out and talk bok can be a little bit. not good. for them and i had another word in my no always going to say that but he can but you know this is the world cup again you allowed to sort of play your way into it and the big play is as this tournament progresses as we move into the quarterfinals and the semifinals and the final for the big players usually to step into the character and we've seen that today with the papa we've seen that with kabbani and it's beautiful to see and we c

in berlin then at western relations with russia are very strained after the conviction of election avani what options are there for addressing these tensions diplomatically. that's a very good question and that's the idea of the book to the well of the who are presented if that we've just heard about to attempt to use a diplomatic path instead of the sanctions the u.s. ambassador have already announced that they will because you like distillation after the conviction of alexei navalny the e.u. has so said we will wait when the money was arrested and i think the visit of the well might also be one of the test cases to see what kind of with dollars will he be able to bring home will it be in the end of the good of bad timing and bad blokes and might that be for the youth an occasion to think about sanctions when diplomatic means especially when it comes to washington method policy usually that those successful. europe and germany in particular walk a fine line trying to maintain business relations with russia while addressing numerous disputes not least over ukraine these interests are cla

avani is a mess on a lot but it will be hit with all the latest updates around 30 minutes time so stay with us. no one except. the process of constructing this was to rank as a biodegradable scaffold which is poor and when this is inserted beneath the skin when the skin is suctioned over the scaffold over a period of about 6 months you have to shoot in growth and invest your eyes eisen occurring in other words the cells the mule in your body grow into the scaffold it grows its own blood supply so now this is fully integrated as part of my on it's own living part of my own. they all see themselves as dying swans in their dreams. but only one in the cells will ever make it to the till. they're ready to give their lives for the chance to die on stage if only once. not even broken wings can deter them. for generations at the madrid ski ballet sweat and tears. i've interviewed limits of being world and rape is a very very traumatizing thing to have happen but i've never seen trauma like i've seen from women who are veterans who have suffered military sexual trauma. i cannot remember how man

every possibility you get to do so and of course there are nuclear incident that occurred with missile avani is such an opportunity to push the own again. and so it was clear from the beginning. this chance would be used and actually never found a use now conscious and recovering from this is back to point think has been posting on instagram about what he believes happened to him according to a new video and its accompanying text a water bottle with a trace of the novacek nerve agent was found in his hotel room in the city of tomsk his colleagues say they took the bottle as evidence just an hour after these alleged poisoning came to light are done of has been looking at the clay. this is it amateur footage shot in election of ali's room according to his supporters about an hour after the russian opposition figure started showing the 1st symptoms of the poisoning and the 1st thing that jumps at the viewer is that all these people in the room normally it is advised to wear more protective gear to protect oneself from cold it and this here they will potentially dealing with a military grade ner

welcome back kremlin critic i like saying avani is back on russian soil and was immediately arrested by police on arrival they found he had been in germany receiving medical treatment after an instant's last summit in which he fell seriously ill during a flight saw the reports from moscow's winnick about international airport when of on these plane it was scheduled to land. but here i am. just to the southwest of moscow and around 7 30 pm local time russian opposition forgot it was a cue to land on that flight from belin however at the last minute we got word that all incoming flights were being diverted to other ports and the film is flight was set to shut me up to the other side of the capital now we've seen footage of him that disembarking the plane we saw him boarding a bus in will to be taken to a tunnel and it was on that bus that the he was taken in to police custody now behind me about an hour and a half 2 hours ago are once dispatched now it is minus 20 degrees i don't blame them a crowd of supporters had got that despite with ortiz all skin people not to gather on most of t
