Of the big headlines of the last 7 days here in r. T. International with me kevin oh in this hour 1st germanys accepted moscows request for legal cooperation on a probe into the alleged poisoning of alexina valmy however state prosecutors want some information will only be shared with the activists consent it says Russian Police asked to interview him in berlin restylane hospital germany adds to it still expects russia to be held accountable for the incident. The relations with russia are influenced by the fact that russia is 1st of all an important global actor and also by the fact that in the past and in present times we have had some problematic topics between each other and we should express ourselves carefully this time there was an attempted murder on mr novelli performed with a very specific and internationally banned nerve agent of the novacek group and our demand is that russia urgently explain. What happened this. Hour authorities are investigating this incident we dont like it when other countries dictate to us when and at what point to start our processes we cannot legally call this a criminal case based on the analysis of the journal aboard 3 moreover the board to receive the b. R. D. Army just as in the b. Or d. It is probably impossible to initiate a criminal case on the basis of tests that were taken in our Military Hospital this is legally nonsense there are acts of furphy cation our investigative bodies are working they have questions new questions appear we hold that we will receive information from our german colleagues it will help to move forward germany previously announced it would be sharing of these test results for the Global Chemical weapons watch dog although brusha which is a member of the o p c w says still nothings been received novelli emerged from the in juice coma this week with doctors saying he does now re at the speech although long term affects a still unclear he was airlifted to berlin for treatment last month after falling element flight from siberia the russian hospital with initially treated him noted no evidence of poisoning was uncovered meantime russias envoy to the un responded to western pressure on his country this fall incident cannot but raise questions well both lead being speech we hear what statements formal and what measures are being mentioned discussed or in will these leaders leads us to an unavoidable reply nickel question legions in search situations weve won you trace it weve pulled those who used to benefit from this the one that one if you demand explanations will defects on the table and well compare notes one should with the rest elite geishas uncorroborated by evidence even though this is as you see me your reasonable. The german parliaments debated the poisoning of the special session with lawmakers already demonic action against moscow our europe correspondent peter all of the reports it was a fiery session on friday afternoon until evening here in berlin in the german bund the stock the majority of those who spoke with pointing a finger of blame directly at russia and the russian government for what they say was the poisoning of alexei folly there were some voices that question the official government line not many i have to say but there were some and to commit this if the kremlin really regrets the assassination attempt on alecs in the valley and really wants to clear things up why does novell need such a level of protection from our Security Services political murder is part of the putin system. So not only are the russians supposed to have tried to poison an opponent of the regime with a military nerve agent but the put it in his tea why would the russian government be so stupid them and even let an avanti fly out to germany instead of hiding him in russia its absurd that north stream too was a big issue on the during the debate as well basically the german politicians splitting into 3 camps there are those that say it needs to be halted immediately and perhaps canceled altogether there are those that want to wait and see how russia reacts and how this story develops and there are those who are saying that its simply too important economically and it must remain purely an economic project no matter what else is going on we have those see heated debate over north stream both on the streets here in germany friday night in the north stream has never been a purely private sector project as the German Government has repeatedly argued this by the war in syria just by the use of a chemical weapon in souls bury the federal government is sending a message to the kremlin no matter what you do economic goals are more important to us than climate Protection Security policy and human rights. Demanding the immediate term a nation of north stream 2 is in my view a hasty and misguided reaction but it pleases those who have always opposed the project especially the greens well as germany continues to push russia for an explanation for what happened to Alexei Novelli the Russian Foreign minister Sergei Lavrov has said russia still waiting for information it requested from germany but its sort of your minute of the german representative to the u. N. Said the data is no longer not for bilateral relations between germany and russia but amounts for multilateral proceedings what kind of proceedings the germans are talking about they were unable to say. In the interests of our german colleagues we urge them to provide all necessary information which might in any way should lights one absolutely unfounded accusations investigators in russia of also being on the search for more Information Police in the city of thompson which is where all x. In the valley had been he was flying from tomsk to moscow before his plane had to make an Emergency Landing in the city of school with the lexan of only in extreme distress well placed in tom skipping putting together a timeline of where he was in the lead up to him getting on that plane theyve placed mr valley in a hotel in a restaurant in a flat and in a coffee shop what theyve also been going about doing is trying to interview those that were in close contact with alecks in the valley during his time in the city of tomsk police there say theyve been able to interview 5 of the 6 people that spent a lot of time with mr novelli they say the 6th person a woman is believed to have come here to germany there are still lots of facts to come to light in the case of what happened to alexa in the funny books as we search for those facts the diplomatic route between germany and russia continues to heat up. As we heard senior politicians in berlin have been piling pressure on the government there to pull out of the north to project over the move on the case in the week we spoke exclusively with the head of the german Parliaments Energy Committee about that very issue. 3 correct not stream 2 is not putins project it involves a large number of European Companies and is designed to ensure the security if europes gas supply to question this project now is to shoot ourselves in the foot it is certainly not in the interests of germany or europe if there is a decision to end the project companies will be able to sue those who made the decision in this case the German Government and of course it will affect gas prices it must be clearly understood that this is not a game really the pressure coming from the us is already enough in my view so we are strongly resisting the american sanctions that have been imposed on companies and individuals involved in the pipeline construction this is against International Law and we dont accept it i can see the many people who might not have fully understood the story thinking now well show them but i think its completely wrong 1st of all we need to establish what really happened because i dont think germany no use i think we should respond appropriately to the russians request for Legal Assistance we obviously received such a request but according to the russians it is so far gone unanswered. Another big story of the week was britains much criticized internal market bell its going to face another big test tomorrow monday too when the house of commons debates it is proving hugely controversial in a way just gone then Prime Minister Boris Johnson tried to convince his ruling party to back the draft act but former Party Leaders john major as well as acts Prime Minister tony blair both urged parliament to reject it. Its more of negotiating is irresponsible and wrong in principle and dangerous in practice it raises questions that go far beyond the impact on ireland the Peace Process and negotiations for a trade deal crucial though they are it questions the very integrity of our nation as the world looks on a girls that the u. K. This Government Action is shaming itself and embarrassing our nation the deal had been designed to stop a border between the north and south violent but Boris Johnson was to return controls on the movement of goods there and that sparked a harsh morning from brussels just picked up again you need to respect the will fully expect the u. K. To honor the commitments that negotiated and signed up to last year got a Citizens Rights in Northern Ireland any attempt by the u. K. To undermine the agreement would have serious consequences. Against his hostile backdrop and you bracks it talks continues her skin tone or assesses their chances of success. How i long for the bracks it days even stability that you know over moves one part permanently outside number 10 braxtons president today after delay after delay is a passive but something reassuring in not so comforting that in these Tumultuous Times one can turn to bricks it like the good friend that it is but still that in fact nothings changed we have now been talking for 6 months and can no longer afford to go over well trodden ground we need to see more realism from the e. U. About our status as an independent country the needs to be in agreement with our european friends by the time of the European Council and the 15 thats going to be in force by the end of the year but perhaps it wouldnt be bracks if it wasnt full of dissatisfaction and up to promises about the u. K. s having 2nd thoughts about the Withdrawal Agreement signed back in january so it might override key parts of the last brussels basically says we are soon off to a free trade deal by mid october and the media thought of the u. K. Renee seeking on its words elicited cries of moment youre from those bureaucrats in brussels do you. Believe shawn franks ability and grit. To work with the u. K. s red lines its time do you good to great i trust the British Government to implement their withdrawal a criminal an obligation under International Law and prerequisite for any future Partnership Protocol in ireland Northern Ireland is essential to protect peace and stability on the island and integrity of the Single Market the one room of the got people especially worried is that tucked away in voters pocket is something called the internal market belt and this contest could jeopardize peace and security along the i was border but downing street tonight this same that its only proposing my alterations which would provide clarity on such a big us part of the deal but even at home not everyone is convert. Apparently the head of the u. K. s Legal Department quit over the whole thing and then there is this one minute minor detail proving to be just a little contentious break International Law in a very specific and limited boy oh well as long as its just specific but is all this proves to be the straw that breaks the camels back and the u. K. And e. U. Dont shake hands the u. K. Will be left popping up out in the north sea with no deal and no tariff gets classic bracks set everyone happy looming deadline the threat of no deal and now the Prime Minister losing trust some things never change as it seems well americas professor at the school of economics alan scared believes brussels is still refusing to accept britain really in the days actually left the block. I think both sides would like some kind of deal however. The e. U. Insists on treating britain like a kind of going to get province that we can really be truly independent in the base could be we should still fall short of the e. U. And it believes that the e. U. Common fish and fisheries policy should still apply to british territorial waters. Believes that when it comes to rules and regulations the british shouldnt be able to make their own they should be forced to. Rely on any new regulations see you to get their approval for us and of course thats impossible for the british to except. Its 14 minutes past may day this sunday here in moscow coming up in more the news that were recapping of the week so you and the headline seem most pretty state Health Workers are considering quitting over the governments handling of the covered pandemic well show you the figures when the back. Join me every thursday on the alex simon show and ill be speaking to guest on the world of politics Small Business im show business ill see that. Again lets focus on better russia now whats been happening there opposition supporters keeping up the pressure on president looking shanklin weve gone thousands of activists so most all women gathered in multiple locations across minsk calling on the president to resign as you can see there were some pretty tense confrontations with Security Forces there at times its the latest in a month long wave of unrest since the contested president ial election which opposition supporters say was rigged a city correspondent were gassed to get a visit mints. Theres like the police the demonstrators and protesters very very adaptive as well they realize that gathering in one place at the same time is bound to you know get them all arrested so what theyve done is theyve got guys in different columns different marches down the streets of means in order to avoid being arrested all at once and live chanting against the president theyre saying theyre just out for a walk theyre calling as well for a criminal tribunal into the president there are now apparently thousands tens of thousands of people marching down the streets of minsk in this womans march and they came out of nowhere little groups organizing down little streets all converging to march down means nevertheless we havent seen police or state Security Agency do well and there really is safety in numbers because it would be completely impossible to detain soo many people thousands of people on the peaceful march down the streets of means. Also this week a high profile member of the opposition in belarus was arrested on the border with ukraine monday marie claire sneak over disappeared she couldnt be reached by phone and for a while their whereabouts remained you know there were claims that shed been kidnapped by better Russian Security officials they dont choose the official said calista cover was detained as she broke the law while trying to cross the border into ukraine oleksandr looking showing her himself some more details about it in a very lengthy interview he gave to russian journalists in the week. Which is that only could you give us more detail about Marie Kolesnikov where is she. I probably cannot give you much detail gigia the fact that i was only told that she and her 2 friends who were drivers or close ones or distant ones they fled to ukraine today and they had documents and everything prepared in advance they showed their passports and customs officers Border Guards let them through further on is the state border and the ukrainian post between these. There are 8 to 9 kilometers and there our border is heavily guarded so we deployed more guards naturally they were stopped before the gas pedal she was even thrown out of the car on the move on the run. So they themselves did it yes well there were 3 of them who could have thrown her out Border Guards of course detained her hands would have been expected i say this is an old border guard and she was sent to the Border Office and the car went across the Ukrainian Border through the ukrainian post and then as far as im now informed they were detained and we negotiating with them so that they return them to us. And what for they left they relatively speaking of were released from roofs you know they could not be detained they travelled legally with documents but they violated the state border they checked in at the checkpoint the Border Guards and customs officers did their jobs and the border itself is another 8 or 10 kilometers away and they drove right through this reinforced post in here to ukraine allegedly this woman sister lives in ukraine allegedly i dont know for sure they told me this today i ask why is it ukrainian not lithuania not hungry as they usually go to someones relatives to say to leave them i cannot claim so i dont know everything yet therefore she was detained and we asked the ukrainian Border Guards to return the others to our country we will investigate what happened but kolesnikov has got a different story her version is that she was abducted by officers and taken to the Russian Police<\/a> asked to interview him in berlin restylane hospital germany adds to it still expects russia to be held accountable for the incident. The relations with russia are influenced by the fact that russia is 1st of all an important global actor and also by the fact that in the past and in present times we have had some problematic topics between each other and we should express ourselves carefully this time there was an attempted murder on mr novelli performed with a very specific and internationally banned nerve agent of the novacek group and our demand is that russia urgently explain.

Asking the International Community<\/a> to help force look out for the mabel new elections political analyst when iraq 1st told us they would not have come out for taken over scaring away her as without the backing of larger powers he thinks. Its a signal that is being shown to look i think all it shall show that there are forces major forces Political Forces<\/a> behind because little you know wouldnt take such a measure which is illegitimate according to International Law<\/a> if there was no support by the European Union<\/a> or you know. I see this as. Not to intelligence. To blunt it because it shows really that the situation. In belarus is not only divided one side is also in danger of being taken over by external interests therefore i see it in political terms and not in terms of elections in minsk. A poll out of the week found that majority of British State<\/a> Health Service<\/a> doctors considered quitting over the governments handling of the covert pandemic the president of the countrys association of doctors says the issues have been building for a long time. I think what you have 0 is that and it has clearly been feeling and how in broken short many years now prior to. This is a profession has suffered through some of the worst crisis crises in history with intellectual us including absolutely were in s. G. New jobs and contracts changes to our training that mean doctors need every 6 months really here around hospitals around the way and indeed the pension. Crisis which has forced many of our many senior inexperienced experience to interest high and all of this was prior to us going into he and national. More than 1700 medics took part in the survey 2 in 3 say theyre more likely to leave the national Health Service<\/a> because of poor treatment big from the government because of the covert response and what theyve had to go through most say they plan to get out within 3 years where are they going to do World Service<\/a> say they may go abroad some say theyre going to take a pause in their career for a bit others say maybe theyll go and end up in the end working in private hospitals among the main reasons cited for considering quitting were lack of pay rises and protective equipment for a start others say theyve been gagged from speaking publicly about their concerns medics also warned they had promised benefits revoked and of course the general thing here working through all this terrible 2020 on the code front line this had a Major Mental Health<\/a> impact home a lot of them as well. Since weve had in many different demick and weve had these incredible time dying and struggling weve been separate for our families we just want some recognition for what we actually did and what we feel like we deserve over the last 1015 years let alone last month so it wasnt too long ago that we were talking about nash if you were surviving on charitable donations and fear i have to stop just because carrie if it came in just pretty crap we deserve back a profession and a home in a tax theyre better and that was what state that was really me government insisted 3 percent pay rise offer is good enough Prime Minister<\/a> Boris Johnson<\/a> pledged more funding for hospital infrastructure over the difficult winter period coming up ahead of the Doctors Association<\/a> again says its workers must feel valued. We know that the n. H. S. Was very much understaffed and under resourced going into this and i have no doubt that that impacted on our ability to see combat this fire s. We had 10000 vacancies for doctors across the frontlines 100000 vacancies for frontline and its for stuff including nurses so we were we were already struggling with our workforce now if so many doctors leave and we have to remember this was a survey of just 1700 doctors with 2 thirds of them saying actually they were making plans at least so who knows how how big that number truly is but this this really is a worry and i think it is even more of a worry given that many doctors feel that a 2nd serg may be coming within the u. K. So what were asking is that the government considers the hard work of those troops he has within the n. H. S.
