Stepped up another level russia has expelled 2 german diplomats becomes a response to a similar move by berlin well the middle spot over a murder probe quarter has the story. The Russian Foreign minister has given the diplomats in question 7 days to leave the country in a tit for tat response to the German Governments decision when they themselves decided to expel 2 Russian Diplomats the german ambassador has received a note of protest over the ground was decision to expel 2 Russian Diplomats from berlin as a mere response to german diplomats must leave russia within the next 7 days now it was just last week that the German Government made this decision to expel 2 Russian Diplomats for the cut from the country and the official report said that russia was not being active enough in cooperating within vesta geisha into the murder of a Georgian National named so. In can Congress Really now the german prosecutors even say that russia moscow may have ordered the murder itself but russia denies these claims and even warned that there would be a mere response the federal Foreign Office today declared to employees of the Russian Embassy in berlin to be persona nongrata with this step the federal government reacts the fact that the russian authorities despite repeated high level and in fact it requests did no sufficiently participate in the investigation of the murder of tony k. K. In berlin zoo. Its incorrect to expel 2 Russian Diplomats who had nothing to do the murder mr reciprocal measures which as you well know there are unwritten rules if you expel our diplomats we expel ules thats that. Now president putin has said that russia has asked for the extradition of Congress Really many times which the German Government is now saying never happened but to bring our viewers up to speed Congress Really was killed back in august and the media immediately blamed russia for this he was living in germany since 2017 and had connections not only had ties to chechen terrorists but also fought against russia in the 2nd chechen war so its not hard to imagine why the russian government would be interested in arresting him on charges of terrorism. The man who was killed in berlin was not your average georgian he was a militant he fought on behalf of the caucasian separatists he was on russias wanted list he was a very cruel man once he killed 98 people he was one of the organizers of bombings in the moscow metro i dont know what happened to him its a criminal sphere anything can happen there. So again moscow has always expressed its willingness to cooperate in this investigation but the initial expulsion of Russian Diplomats on germanys part doesnt exactly mark good faith from berlin. He is a member of the Lincoln Party hes the spokesperson for you in politics very good evening to you and the berlin says moscow sending the wrong signals here what signals would you say russia rescinded with that reciprocal measure. While i dont think that the expelling of Russian Diplomats from bourdin from the foreign minister a year and the count or expelling is a Good Development i think we should avoid diplomatic escalation i think there should be cooperation in finding the. The truth about the garden murdering but i dont think this is the right way of course i can understand the russian reaction that started with expelling of 2 Russian Diplomats so its a reaction but i think we should come out of this kind of. Senseless. Scale ation the German Foreign ministry called the reciprocal expulsions by russia groundless it seems like its a kind of a game where germany feels it has the moral high ground to expel diplomats and and doesnt accept that russia is allowed to do that but surely thats not how it works. Now i just really i just came come from the plenary of the German Parliament i spoke on we had a debate on the. Normandy summit in paris about the result of which are not so bad i would say the results and the foreign minister was speaking and i was speaking for my group the left Party Dealing and that criticised for for expelling. The Russian Diplomats he said that. Its. That he cannot understand german expelling of the german diplomats today but this is part of the game about i should think i think we should come out of this game the issue is about whats behind the murder whats behind. This man who was killed and. There are a lot of questions and we are raising this questions here in the German Parliament too to see some. Transparency about what happened. Yes and then i think the general prosecutor should to do his work but fall its always. The rule. That there should be. Thinking off 1st thinking of everybody and except you have the proofs for things so this is the way how to do it murk but not on this diplomatic level exposion of diplomats has pointed out that theres not really any malice in reciprocated effort there merely just responding to what germanys done and russia says it hopes their nations are going to be affected but how do you think germany will feel about this will this make relations worse. While i hope not because we are now in a very. Hard to say in the very. The we had just had the summit in paris concerning the. Issue about to and to the russian its a very important development. We are in the process of maybe having better relations in the future or there avoids this. Becoming stronger or of lifting the sanctions. Economic sanctions leading to a means to. A lot of german people who want better relations to russia and now to have this. Issue. As a starting point of a new escalation i think its a wrong signal in these times. So i hope we can stop this we can have cooperation here and. Deal with the real big issues and things we time and today my guest delinquent Party Spokesperson on european politics thats under a hunger. Thank you. To the news now u. S. Senate committees approved a bill that is directing the countrys 60 state to determine whether russia is a sponsor of terrorism russias Foreign Ministry slammed this initiative as irrational it passed the state department have 90 days in which to report back to congress the senate a tape of the bill is convinced that russia backs terrorism. Let him or put continues to try to cause grievous harm to International Peace and stability and i am pleased the Senate Foreign Relations Committee advanced my critical legislation directing the state department to consider naming russia what they are a state sponsor of terror the proposed legislation will now have to pass the house and the senate before being signed by the president just a week ago the state Department Said that russia is not a state terrorist sponsor killable looks at the mixed messages. State sponsor of terrorism is a special designation under u. S. Law in which a country is subject to specific sanctions and treatment by the United States for allegedly supporting terrorism now the countries that currently have this label are iran north korea syria and sudan cuba had this label until u. S. President barack obama lifted that label against cuba as part of negotiations that took place during his presidency now the allegation seems to be that russia supports terrorism and is worthy of this state department designation however weve heard testimony from members of the u. S. State department making clear that russia does not support terrorists the state department has not at this stage determined russia is a state sponsor of terrorism there is a fairly complex deliberative process for doing the i dont personally see the person as state sponsorship of terrorism terrorist attacks we also have to recognize russia itself has been a victim of terrorism to make it safe to say that on the record as well now russia has long battled against jihadism extremists that have carried out terrorist attacks against the russian people the russian government has also cooperated with the u. S. Government in antiterrorism efforts the advancing of this bill comes in the immediate aftermath of the very important meeting between Russian Foreign minister Sergei Lavrov and us President Donald Trump now at his press remarks following that meeting the Russian Foreign minister emphasized that there are certain forces in the United States working very hard to do rail relations between the 2 countries. Congress seems to have been captured by a desire to destroy Us Russian Relations now relations between the u. S. And russia have been sour as it is and when u. S. President donald trump met with the Russian Foreign minister and took a photograph together there was quite a reaction from those who oppose it are critical of President Donald Trump trump is meeting with russias foreign minister in the even if you see again on this hes invited in. It sounds last time they laughed about troops firing of komi today they can celebrate the success of russian propaganda reagan wouldnt recognize this g. O. P. Trump lover of meeting in private this often what conspiracy are they cooking up today among the topics discussed at this high level russia u. S. Meeting where the issues of arms control Nuclear Proliferation as well as the issue of terrorism and it seems that in the aftermath of the meeting some efforts are now taking place to undo whatever progress was made the reza aslan executive director of the Eurasia Center thinks russia has done more to combat terrorism than the United States i am shocked i think this is going in the complete opposite direction the president. Would like to go in. I think europe is also would like to be mending and rebuilding the tide to russia i dont understand how the senate even comes up with this idea i mean if you look at terrorism russia is probably doing more to fight terrorism than the us i mean its clear that whether its intentional or not us funding us weapons us training have gone to just an example moderate rebel which one day or supposedly moderate and then the next day there i thirst russia as a state sponsorship i mean these people are off in some other world and theyre not in not in reality. I feel very embarrassed. For myself but russia for the going through it was just a completely shocked that somebody would actually propose that. Time magazine as unveiled this choice for person of the 16 year old climate activist griffith and some view her as a model of determination and praise for efforts to combat Climate Change others find their approach unscientific and theyve accused of panic on the stand who conflicts into the phenomenon. Last year she was just the regular swedish schoolgirl 12 months on and shes times person of the year rarely does the discussion on Climate Change today take place without her name being mentioned growth of the work has become a global sensation not just a prominent figure among climate activists but almost a messianic symbol 2 pulls no punches in schooling politicians about what they must do to save the planet the real danger is when politicians and c. E. O. s are making it look like real action is happening when in fact almost nothing is being done apart from clever accounting and creative p. R. She certainly does have a point but what about the growth of film book phenomenon itself its on the noise quickly and loudly drawn attention to Climate Change shes got people talking and even been credited with influencing european and National Elections but wants more than just talking she wants action from politicians or the critics question what useful action grettir inspired movements have actually taken a vote from strikes and protests which she herself says are unsustainable we cant go on like this it is not sustainable solution that children skip school we cant go on like that so now we dont want to continue so we would we would love some action from people in power her speech is resonated across the world it wasnt long before her fiery indictment of World Leaders at the un Assembly Became a meme now they followed a clear structure grave danger bad government and a need for immediate action she soon became a target for opponents who said her ideas it lacks substance and slated her style but that was quickly knocked on the head criticism was often swiftly silenced with those critiquing her justifiably or no. Not labeled as massage honest hysterical or being triggered the climate hysteria movement is not about science if it were about science it would be led by scientists rather than by politicians and the mentally ill swedish child who is being exploited by her parents and by the international lair you. Markku knows of daily want to just call get a phone by get a mentally ill swedish child she is mad and dangerous and she is causing the Young Children sleepless noise to move to the juicy gossip shes a she needs to go to school and show that i was fascinated by this school girl starting this strike for Climate Change awareness and i thought wow thats pretty gutsy it was all a little melodramatic it was all in the world of succulent tick i dont want millions if not believes of young people watching grass to do that kind of speech and genuinely think the planet is literally about the way she is daring to express what so many young people are feeling and actually i find it remarkable that she can speak in such an honest way its truth to kathy is he speaking some of her actions a ridiculed like her transatlantic boat trip having sailed through storms to avoid Carbon Emissions from air travel she sailed into a storm of criticism when a fellow companions joined her flying in by plane not to mention the impracticality of adopting such measures on a wider scale this brings us back to growth as words about politicians creative p. R. World leaders from merkel to micron among others were happy to humor the latest global trend with a photo opportunity while rebuking some of our ideas so what does this leave the person of the year at 2019 which is certainly sent a message taken center stage and brought people into the streets with a call it is now time for civil. Disobedience its time to rebel but will this have the desired effect the only thing. Its really actually election has not been happening so of course we have. A lot but so. That if you look at its far. Far from a certain point of view we have achieved nothing like her all over she has created a stir it may be difficult to understand the method behind a person of the year awards one of good as runner ups was donald trump maybe we can agree to hope that this years award isnt just symbolic isnt Just Creative p. R. But will lead to the real change the grettir seeks to create. Germany has slammed washington sanctions thread over the massive nord stream to natural gas pipeline with foreign minister. Insisting that the rejects meddling. European policy is decided in europe not in the us we crucially reject external interference and sanctions with extra territorial effect. Nordstrom to the gas pipeline running from russia to europe through the baltic sea covers more than a 1000 kilometers a means moscow doesnt have to transit gas to the e. U. Through ukraine however washington is not a fan claiming it leaves europe to energy dependent on russia. Economists take a hard and joins me on the line now a very good evening germanys foreign minister said the use Energy Policy has to be decided by the bloc cant be decided by the United States do you see those e. U. Pushing back against washington. Well they have to push back a little bit the problem with not really true right lying is that germany who is gas or europe could get to Energy Independence on blackmail from poland and the ukraine or other american puppets and i think this is the major problem and so for security measures the e. U. Test of pushback against the sanctions and they have to make clear that companies in europe have a little bit of safety when they do projects which you are absolutely within within the lot. What do you think of the Russian Foreign ministrys approach which is that they face possible u. S. Sanctions over north stream 2 could actually be just to get more unilateral benefits for washington at the expense of europe. If you still get right with their work the u. S. Has the big problem that they are facing bankruptcy because the world doesnt want the u. S. Dollar anymore and of course they are going around the world and blackmail other bessel states or other states to make business with them and only with them and the u. S. Wants to on the one hand to get rid of their natural gas which is partly expansive and wouldnt have a market in europe because they are part of expansive against the russian and edges farkle and secure because the u. S. Is just declaring sanctions on european businesses so it would be foreign oil and security for europe to rely on u. S. Energy supply so what else is the only single benefit for the work he has to do what they are searching for and russia or is here doing opening markets which are very favorable for both europe and russia and russia of course doesnt want to see that if the United States really did implement sanctions over north stream to not just talk about it how do you think europe would respond. I cannot say for sure or europe will this respond because european politicians are something totally different than your interests and in the interests of the people in europe. I think there are far too many politicians dependent on us or their their networks but i think europe now if theyre going to try to pull the string of the sanctions away if they have sanctions they will always be just a shame to pull up their shoulders and say sorry we cant do anything ok do bear with us for just a moment i could just want to explain to our view as Something Else that we can discuss in a moment because not string 2 its not the only stumbling block between germany and america at present a major german telecoms provider has chosen the chinese take down while way to build its 5 g. Network in the country calling the company a Strategic Partner telefonica set to launch a 5 g. Wireless network in germany next year covering 30 cities by 2022 germany one of the few e. U. Countries that opened its doors to wall way along with spain and portugal washington call strongly opposes this proposed to the reach of the tech giant they claim it poses a Security Risk huawei is. A company we may not do business with at all because it is a natural Security Threat the United States has also been very clear with our Security Partners on the threat posed by the way the Chinese Government can rightfully demand access to data flowing through one way and see the systems why would anyone grant such power to regime that has already grossly violated cyberspace paul without change the way were not allowing one way into our country will not change and that we can do business for nonsecurity things one way. And coming back to the economist like a harmonica so its another bone of contention now the United States has made it very clear it doesnt want anybody really partnering with our way says theyre a Security Risk and now a telecoms provider said its going to use them to build 5 g. In germany where where is this going to go to washington will try to block this as well or they will of course try to block this and im afraid in this sense they are a little bit right because why is the course a Security Threat because the chinese go in and use the 5 g. Technology to spy on europe but the u. S. Does say the problem is that your europe has no own technology which is close to violence as well i or that other technology from abroad and this is the big problem if they want to have the technology and politicians like it because it opens the huge variety of systems control of spying on the citizens and so on and where they want to have it but they have an Old Technology and they have to take one of those Foreign Companies on telephone discover it is that that is the 2nd problem arising because telefonica has been supported illegally in my sense from the European Central bank and now they need some excuse to get us to to justify the funding for the telefonica as you explained there are you making this choice really because they dont have too many other options that theyre doing whats best for them but were going to see distance now between america and europe as they both try to look after their own interests and struggle to find common ground. Well i dont think europe is looking for its only improved because early in the past they have shown that they are not even able to look after their only interest in this case theyre at the edge of their they have they are in the corner they cant do any sort of work us is looking for their own benefits and i wish they europe would start to look for their own benefits but in this case it is just this embarrassment of totally broken down economics policy of economics which we can see now in europe it is only. An economy or politics of the committee to sit and nothing else and this in this case it shows it again. My guest this hour economist i can hardly thank so much for joining us here on r. T. Ica you were gone thank you very much. Good words are used in your very welcome thanks for joining us here on r. T. Updates on our top stories plenty more coming your way in just over half an hour. Israel media a reflection of reality. In a world transformed. What will make you feel safe. Isolation that you didnt cheat. You good in the right way or are you being. What is true. Is faith. In the world corrupted you need to descend. To join us in the death. Or inmate in the shallowness. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy. Let it be an arms race. Spilling Dramatic Development that only. Exists i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. Greetings and salutation there is nothing worse than a bad neighbor walk watchers living next door to someone who is too noisy nosy and full of themselves is driven more than one tenant from apartments and neighborhoods across the country but he never thought about what its like to be neighbors with the United States of america well apparently the answer is not good according to recent figures out of pew Research Mexico the United States southern neighbor is definitely not a fan in fact in mexico 56 percent say that you the United States is the greatest threat to the. Country while 27 percent cite the u. S. As their most dependable ally not surprisingly according to some of their most recent surveys numbers mexicans have almost no confidence in you has President Donald Trump and there is widespread opposition to his proposed border wall so i wonder you know it makes you wonder why why the mexican people would consider the United States to be such a threat to tell about the pew research. I bet it probably has something to do with the headlines like this one doctors a restaurant well off were arrested while offering flu vaccines for immigrants in Border Patrol custody yes it appears that our good friends in the customs and Border Patrol who are running the immigrant concentration camps along our beautiful southern border are not a fan of flu vaccine despite the fact that at least 3 children ages 26. 16 died of influenza while in federal custody this last fiscal year this includes the tragic case of Carlos Gregorio hernandez muska is a 16 year old who just last may died from influenza on the concrete floor of his Detention Center after Border Patrol agents chose to lock him up instead of giving him care. Its stories like those that remind us why we always d have to be watching the hawks. It looks like. Its the. Last piece in the box if you. Like you that i got. With that we. Would. Welcome everyone to watching the hawks i am tyrrel ventura joining me now to discuss these latest issues at the border as well as the United States failing status in the world where everyone thinks were a threat is immigration attorney ill order your elbow if you so much as always for coming on and having me
