How can a person be in Court Without being able to interact or communicate with his lawyers who are representing his interests and residents in towns in northeastern france accuse their belgian neighbors of illegally dumping tons of garbage across the border. Hello there the latest news and a look back at whats been happening over the last 7 days to you watch the weekly here in our international now for employees of Russia News Agency and key have been released after questioning the editor in chief along with 3 others were detained in ankara and istanbul on saturday and this follows nationalists trying to break into the homes of 3 sputnik employees in ankara we spoke to max endured a nerve who is the head of the Sputnik Turkey Office and he stumbled. A group of about 20 people came directly to each of our employees at their residential addresses they shouted threats and accusations against them after our colleagues went to the Police Station to report the incident we could not then reach them for many hours however according to the place their phones had not been taken from them right now we want to know how this crowd of nationalists found out the addresses of all our employees their names and names and the story did not end there today a group of Police Officers arrived at is down below office as well as to the editor in chief of sputnik turkey now the police are making copies very employees hard drives as i understand it our articles on the turkish problems of time served as the basis for the searches in the recent events i want to say that we will now take measures to maximize the securities of the employees working in our office obviously touch has been grabbing headlines in recent days have seen those pics of migrants flooding across its border but this is another story from that its been slightly over looked so 3 journalists who work for Russia Sputnik news agency in ankara have been released now after several hours in Police Custody and thats because after questioning no reason was found to hold them. Which it actually went to the police of their own free will because they wanted to file a complaint about an alleged attack that theyve been victims to in that own homes on saturday and after that nothing was heard from them until now of course which understandably sparked concern from moscow we call on the turkish authorities to intervene provide safety to employees of the Russian Media and ensure that all circumstances are clarified its also said that the editor in chief of the estimable bureau was also detained by police and what some are calling a flagrant violation of Media Freedom its now being confirmed that he too has been released and that happened it is also thought to have searched the offices of that bureau you mentioned. Attacks in their own homes or your sons quite sinister what details do we know about those well its alleged that they were not spontaneous attacks but rather a coordinated a fact that they were instigated by turkish nationalists there are some reports saying that these nationalists gathered outside the private homes of these 3 journalists some of them even allegedly broke into them and they were chanting nationalist slogans and they also according to some stories versions they allegedly accuse these employees of betraying that country because they walk for the russian news outlet but why would that be such a still a t towards these 3 while unfortunate some in turkey are blaming russia for the deaths of dozens of tucker soldiers and in a syrian recently thats despite the fact that im come out very clearly said that we know that the Russian Air Force was in no way involved its also worth mentioning lets quickly listen in to another motive that was suggested i condemn last nights threats and attempted attack against 3 turkey journalists outside their homes in ankara also concerned that they were reportedly detained today over. As you threw g. s to ensure the safety of foreign correspondents. Now the article in question is one in which and 939 disputed referendum in the now tucker province of a tie is discussed with some suggestion that potentially it was waived by the tux but i do want to say that that has not been confirmed or stop just as a motive for these attacks but it is briefly was just saying that this is unfortunate not the 1st time that sport has faced problems in a touch back in 2016 for example the news website was temporarily blocked by the countrys Telecom Regulator as this latest turn of events would of course be keeping an eye on it and see how it all plays out we discussed situation with the journalist me oren he believes this is not an isolated incident. Turkeys not a model country regarding the treatment of its own journalists thousands have been thrown in jail. Others dozens remain in exile because they know that they too will be imprisoned if they do go back so the fact that they also do it to foreign media is not surprising the reason Vienna Convention regarding the door to diplomats and most countries respect. Envoys and better goes but for journalists. Not so clear and reporters are usually working democracy of the host government and if the media cannot operate just because their country of origin is no. Friction with the other country thats very worrisome and perhaps turkey has something to hide. Meanwhile turkey is the heart of a new migration crisis its opened its borders with e. U. In 50000 people have crossed into europe in a single day large number. Migrants and refugees were seen throwing rocks at border patrols before they cut through a barbed wire fence at the turkish border. Affectively tore up an agreement with brussels under which it took charge of millions of Asylum Seekers in return for Financial Aid on the other side greek police create a new comers with. Well this does follow a flare up in tensions in syrias last remaining terrorist stronghold in the province turkey threatened to launch a full scale military operation there after dozens of its troops were killed in a syrian airstrike that was targeting jihadists and i increased voiced concern about a fresh influx of refugees fleeing the instability in the region the hostilities have ruined. With russia. As more on the story. It may be syrias last remaining terrorist stronghold but seems to be killing the last remaining hope for peace or even a dialogue there. Turkey which once committed to working with russia to clear terrorists from the area is making a u. Turn yesterday i asked what is your goal if you want to set up a base you can set up a base draw your troops back from where we leave us face to face with the regime the comments came after 33 turkish soldiers were reportedly killed in a syrian airstrike on the lip according to the Russian Military the troops died while operating alongside terrorists and turkey failed to inform us that they were. Where the syrian army has every right due to regular violations of the cease fire from inside the it lib zone to neutralize terrorists so we cannot restrict the syrian army from fulfilling requirements written in the Un Resolution and a cry for help and car are called an emergency meeting with nato they made speculation that alliance could be dragged into war nothing was offered more than words of support i dont think nato forces will enter syria in support of those whove gone or the problem to turkey is the Nato Alliance principle is an attack on the lawn as an attack on all but the turks might be risking trying to save it in attack by one nato states brings in all the others to support it and i think theres a lot of reluctance to see new to come into direct confrontation with russia so theres quite a lot of powerful voices in nato who support the turks desire to see the syrian armys offensive stopped but im not sure they want to go beyond words and perhaps symbolic gestures so it seems ever gone deployed another tactic trying to force europes hand. What we did is we opened up borders because you promised us assistance but you did nothing and we will not close those doors because the e. U. Must keep its word just hours later crowds of migrants rushed to the frontier buy food by bus by train even risking their lives at sea. And not all of them off from syria im from afghanistan are going to greece for a better life the turkish government did right by opening the borders i have been in turkey since i was 3 im originally from afghanistan i want to go to greece because i want to move to europe Living Conditions are better there. But there wasnt exactly the warmest of welcomes on offer on the other side of the border greens even used tear gas in a bid to make the new comers abandoned their dreams of a better life which must succeed where strengthening forces on landed at sea Additional Police and army forces are being transferred the government is determined to do whatever is necessary to safeguard our borders so a new wave of the refugee crisis in europe relations with russia again plunged into new lows nato lives in a spacious well maybe even more turbulence than ever before in just a matter of weeks as the guns manage to undo the progress of the last 2 years taken the world in a direction thats the exact opposite of the peace the turkish president still promises to restore its a serious escalation from the. Turks who chose to intervene militarily in directly because they were doing so by proxy by training organizing mean. Terrorist groups fighting the syrian government. Of course for political reasons because the russians and the syrians didnt want to leave this region lead to a direct confrontation at the residence and it is not legitimate its not sanctioned by any Un Resolution and it was considered. Invasion or occupation by foreign power or d syrian territory. Meanwhile it is being reported that turkey has shot down 2 Syrian Air Force planes in italy province the aircrafts were carrying out an Anti Terrorist fence if when they were attacked by turkish jets although the pilots we understand did eject to safety.

Join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business im show business ill see you then. You know we talk a lot on the show many years about economy and currencies and what makes a currency usually what makes a currency a scarcity for example gold is a currency its money because its scarce thats the primary reason people use it as money keynesian economics or a socialism is usually unworkable because the people who are organizing it think that well you can just print all the money you need you need a program print more money theres socialism for banks on wall street as was pointed out recently one of the big president ial debates you know bank gets in trouble just print more money well whats the ultimate scarce commodity what is the ultimate scarce commodity think about it what is the ultimate scarce commodity. The residents of north east and northeast and france are crying foul over flight hipping theyre accusing their neighbors in belgium of the illegally dumping trash across the border surely the pinsky reports this may look like part of a landfill site but its not all of this waste has been dumped here illegally were just a few miles from the border with belgium and luxembourg and the french town of all core mu 9 is one of many struggling to cope with what you can see mountains and to mountains of garbage that have appeared since october in nearby red its a similar story trash both household and commercial has been dumped under the cover of darkness. At 1st we thought it was regular waste but it turns out people are illegally dumping their washing machines. There for when everything away should. Yes but here we see its far more serious we estimate around 200 tons of waste its enormous as far as the pollution we dont know whats inside it could be tons of who knows what type of products. Chemicals. We dont know we see cleaning products plastics but more could be hidden it didnt take long before calls track down where the waste was coming from what if we did look into the trench piles and piles of it it all had signs of being from the same place we searched and found out it was from on term. And that if there is an invoice is it and. Then you know it says. So there. When the company was contacted it didnt need any knowledge of illegal waste dumping but the local resident jessica told me that since that statement the fly tipping has continued its been described as dumping on an industrial scale and you can see why back in the local Fishermans Association is also concerned. On the water source or close to this pollution so there could be a problem because it could affect our pond this is the 21st century there are designated places to put waste like this its an acceptable people are doing this and regulate the Mayors Office says the cost of cleaning this up is beyond its means no and if you know so on a financial level for us this is impossible to solve we have a Small Community of 1000. 00 people it would cost the equivalent of the whole annual budget to get rid of this. A criminal investigation into this problem with cross border dumping has we know youve been and customs agents have stepped up their patrols now in 2017 they reported 7 metric tons of waste like this was illegally trafficked into france in 2018 that shot up to 130000000 metric. Sons now although there are no figures yet available for 29000. 00 it is clear that this issue is escalating the communities here off fed up of being a dumping ground for other peoples waste they want more regulation and a calling on the easy to step in to solve a problem that some believe europes open borders are helping to facilitate charlotte. R. T. In mosul. This week germany lifted the ban on the commercial sale of euthanasia although critics now a fear that the right to die will be exploited for profit peter oliver reports. Almost 5 years after it was banned the highest court in germany has ruled that blocking assisted suicide is unconstitutional and making its ruling on wednesday the Constitutional Court in culture is said everyone has a right to live and a right to die article 217 of the german criminal code outlawed euthanasia as well as the advertising of the services what this ruling from the Constitutional Court means is that its being overturned and not only could Companies Offer euthanasia but that advertising for the day could also stop being seeing the thinking behind wednesdays court ruling is that this will allow those in extreme paying and suffering from terminal illnesses to end their lives on their terms however senior voices within Palliative Care are warning that this could perhaps only to the normalize a should and indeed the commodification of suicide in society now the facilitation of suicide for the sick and tired of life is turning into a normal Service Anyone who allows you to nature will sooner or later make it compulsory to die especially in this society is economize designers knowledge of experience across all other country. These shows that supply creates demand immediately following the ruling politicians are asking what situations this will be allowed in also what the commercial implications would be for companies wanting to get involved in the euthanasia business i want clear rules about when medical assistance in particular is allowed and when commercial offerings are excluded it is perfectly normal for people who have a terminal diagnosis to feel suicide in fact some of the studies show that over 80 percent go through a period of depression with some suicidal thoughts and so what we should be doing is trying to find ways to assist those people in getting through that period and actually living their lives rather than promoting assisted suicide newton asier services so we would be extremely worried about any commercialization all round of the process or indeed promotion that would lead to many Vulnerable People feeling that their lives are not worth living and actually ending them prematurely highest people here in berlin what their thoughts are on the ruling aware that this is right for germany its not a commercial thing dying it its something that needs care security he needs. Yes professionalism i think there are certain things that you cannot put a seal to people like its not a business you before. You know want to commit suicide but im suffering i want to end my life you cannot do that to pay for it so you say there was very bad incentives there if for example that advertising was actually targets people who are already having a hard time it could lead to people considering suicide more strongly i dont disagree with their physician assisted suicide just because like there are certain aspects that are beneficial for it but in terms of the advertising i could go either way like a really it depends on who is in control of that promoting these kinds of things for me is that a progress currently within belgium. The netherlands looks a book and switzerland all allow assisted dying but with germany set to join in the concerns are about what is one of the most sensitive of subjects could be set to become a Business Opportunity peter all of a party girl in. Half or years after they lost the white house to donald trump democrats are still haunted by the specter of russian collusion although this time they are pointing the finger of one of their own the only sound is one quarter takes a closer. Good news comrades our agent Bernie Sanders is doing better than we expected in the primaries are planned to have 2 agents fight over the presidency Operation Hammer and sickle is a go but we have one problem some in the Democratic Party establishment are becoming savvy to our strategy Vladimir Putin thinks donald trump should be president of the United States and thats why russia is helping Bernie Sanders get elected so hell lose to trump it doesnt help that just last week western media published information about our top secret operation exposing the connection between agents trump and sanders with our center in moscow as you learned tonight and today yesterday the day before is going to have were going to work help coming from learn to be prudent move through you know for help for one or 2 new one somebody who didnt think could be from at least agent trump was able to follow orders i admit nothing deny everything and make counter accusations it was highly exaggerated. And frankly i think its disgraceful and i think it was a leak from the Intelligence Committee our house version and i think that they liked it i think probably shipley good agent sanders on the other hand really dropped the ball he panicked and that is the ugliest thing theyre doing is they are trying to cause chaos the trying to cause hatred in america its an ugly business and all of us have got to say sorry youre not going to do this in the selection and again is present in the United States. You will not interfere in our elections and the order was to deny sanders deny but he broke under pressure blowing the cover of our moscow back to bernie bros i design these people they are not part of our movement all of us remember 2016 and what we meant what we remember is efforts by russians and others to try to interfere in our election and divide us up. Im not saying thats happening but it would not shock me the center has good reason to believe agent sanders has been compromised were losing control over his actions and hes praising our strategic allies too openly you know when fidel castro came into office you know what he did he had a Massive Literacy Program its not a bad thing its only a matter of time before they discover the interview agent sanders gave to profit i mean r t what effect do you think you can have on your voters it was so close here in iowa well i just hope that people take a hard look at the real issues impacting their lives to make matters worse we may have a mole in our midst how else could the footage have been leaked remember when the comrades recruited sanders at the new years party of 1980 bernie spent his honeymoon in there in soviet russia i mean i think if were going to go back and forth about whos more in the tank with russia its a really hard one between barney and rob we have made too many tactical blunders as it is and western pundits are already undergoing a campaign to discredit our agent obviously we know the russians are continuing to try to choose our next president like they chose our last president the russians dont want me to be the nominee who spent a lot of money on bots on facebook and theyve been taken down say biden is a bad guy they dont want biden rule in politics pick your opponent and putin and trump are picking their opponent the happiest person right now its about one in 15 moscow time this thing is going very well for blatter we have to promise you. Probably stay up watching us right now how you doing our rivals already know too much comrade commissar i think its time to extract our agents you can watch and we can hear not International Good to have you company tonight were back again at the healthy. Was. The world is driven by dreamers shaped past and present at those best
