No one in the party very good morning from moscow this monday the 14th of september. New center with a brand new update for you to take you through it then we start with this whats happening in belarus and the Politics Around it rallies again took place throughout sunday calling for president Alexander Lukashenko to resign in the capital minsk the brutal clashes between demonstrators and Security Forces at least 400. 00 arrests were made crowds are keeping up the pressure then more than a month after the contested election which. One with 80 percent of the vote the opposition claims the election was rigged. The fire a. Little bit about. There were also several counter protest to report to a minsk on sunday people voicing their support for president looking showing go and calling for an end to the postelection unrest meantime Alexander Lukashenko himself is on route to meet his russian counterpart Vladimir Putin later monday in the black sea resort of sochi down there in the warm lets talk to really put drink in here what can we expect from this meeting today over the weeks building up to this the months building up to it sounded look at showbiz kind of courted the west a bit then just a week ago when he gave that Big Press Conference with lots of Russian Media talked about putin being his big brother so whats going to come out of this meeting than we think. Kevin hi again well we all know how shaky this Eastern European country has been lately and amid all the fears that in this region a disastrous potentially even more violent conflict could start all eyes are on tsotsi at this point and if you just do the math it took to the leaders of russia and belarus just a bit more than a month to meet face to face after the election in belarus like he said we already know that Alexander Lukashenko flew out of minsk and we heard from. His head ministration that the talks will be one on one so theres just going to be the 2 of them a lot of our putin and Alexander Lukashenko in the room many are confident that the longstanding belarusian president will be looking forward to get support from the russian government after having to deal with so much trouble back home during this entire month but if we push the world wind button a little bit and look at what mr lucas shango was saying before the vote we do realize that he didnt mince his words out all when it comes to describing his partnership with russia sounding very tough at one point back then he said Something Like that the russians used to be brothers for us now were just partners then like you said kevin the attitude really changed in august and in august we heard mr lucas schenkel call Vladimir Putin his elder brother and any case to the eaters have been on the phone during the crisis very often i do have to say though that most likely the bell russian president wouldnt like to see him like someone who is heading to russia trying to bag. For help so a little earlier he said that his goal for this visit was to cement agreements that were reached earlier but to this i would like to maintain the momentum very good agreements were made during the visit of Prime Minister michoud to belittle we are working on developing them. Well he doesnt want to be seen coming or just say with begging bowl in hand whats better rusco to bring to the much bigger neighbor russia what kind of partnerships are going to be while kevin. Used to go without saying that minsk is a top ally for russia after the fall of the soviet Union Agreements were forming a socalled union state now that was to follow in the footsteps of the European Union and the integration there between the countries in that organization although lately. A cracks began to appear and this alliance. Like i said the rhetoric from Alexander Lukashenko before the vote it was very harsh still though there were very impressive joint projects some of them complete some of them pending for example in Nuclear Power plant in bell roofs that was built together with russia then of course we also understand that moscow is his biggest lender and minsk is heavily reliant on that aid now what minsk is looking forward to is to get some of that debt either written off or get restructured and also minsk is expecting discounts for commodities which is also very important for the budget and the finances of mens briefly is it going to be a warm welcome he gets from mosco here. Well whats really important to point out now coming back to that union there was speculation especially in the western media we heard that there is some kind of plan allegedly by the russian government to really put pressure on lookers shango who is seemingly weak as some are saying at this point and some of that speculation was about alleged plans by the crown land to top hole. Call there were even some words like addicks ation although some of the latest things we heard from the kremlin spokesperson Dmitri Peskov is that there will be no announcement on any kinds of unit unification or takeover especially after this meeting now whats more important here is what moscow has been saying about the crisis all together so far the russian government has refrained from any strong messages of support or criticism or any kind of assessments although this is about the sides within bellerose when it comes to potential outside interference this is something that moscow will not accept and this is what the Russian Foreign ministry in Vladimir Putin has been saying many times and we do know that this message was also passed on to European Partners to flip sort of this house said he maybe is some sort of the ship along the way with russia going to go down with the immediate neighbors on the left will get rid of the way the opponent ukraine how would that be received. Well. Whats more important is how look at angles victory has been received and the toughest messages were coming from. Neighbors that is like you mentioned as tony la violette you any of poland we know that the 1st 3 have already imposed sanctions against their roofs and threats have been coming from. The European Union as a whole and from across the atlantic and just going back to the to the joint message from the united europe here is one of the examples of such threats. European union read to read its determination to impose sanctions on individuals responsible for violence the repression of peaceful protests and if ossification of Election Results and is ready to take further restrictive measures asked necessary. Well so again like i said we know that the talks that are going to happen between Vladimir Putin and Alexander Lukashenko they will be one on one negotiations were not expecting a press conference now why this decision has been made its unclear but we will be definitely waiting for some updates hopefully some message from either because administration or from Vladimir Putins press secretary because indeed this is the 1st official visit of Alexander Lukashenko to a foreign country after the election and he chose russia to be the place for that so all eyes on saucy lets wait for it yeah well wait to see whos going to be the big news of the day would have a comes out from there i think we also know that he is actually on his way notion of quite know these things whether they go to go ahead but it sounds like legs on the location is on route so well update later and come back to us later. Now lets check other news today from monday today social gatherings in england scotland and wales will be limited to no more than 6 people as the country tightens restrictions amid a sharp increase in covert infections the socalled rule of 6 them bunz larger gatherings both outdoors and indoors however there are some exceptions with larger gathering still allowed at work schools and places of worship the police have been given powers to crack down on offenders too with fines of up to 3000. 00 pounds if theyre caught doing wrong. Reports. Well you would think it was new years eve ok prior to the final of the football world cup the come monday the new rule of 6 restricting meet ups of more than half a dozen people will be implemented meaning scenes like this will once again be afraid. And thats the kind of against i mean its a gate crashers brits are living up the last of freedom. The public was just about getting back to normal or as normal as can be they were told to eat out to help out the struggling off the talking sector leading to a very busy month of wining and dining told the travelers rules were locked and encouraged to get back into the office to kick start the economy when suddenly the u. K. Decided to clamp down again but not irenaeus the timing of it and says the exemptions causing confusion many brits upon seeing like its the last orders oh wait its sort of this yeah everyones here tonight. To celebrate. Last night is dont tell us young people to go out there not fun and be like no you cant do that anymore its that except i dont believe that why dont you just state it on the day when you really feel oh a couple days after i think is a good thing. However i dont have 6 friends so it does not implement it doesnt mean anything to im just going to take advantage of until monday and then ill just make sure to stick to the rule or risk decided to include the 6 day 6 maximum governing ban just to stop birthdays from happening ill try to get only before you think of all of 6 and then add here accordingly to the government when its widely known that brits a house or 3rd party and so instead of can think its a gathering many are just brain them forward to this weekend for the kind of infection rates growing again the heights of the town illegal rapes occurring and that is reckless level is low but i said complete to be the high status with the most us loads i used to organize raves i used to love race but i think. Organized groups. Because you are creating a Massive Public health. Well prince will seize any opportunity to pay the town brat but this really is the final farewell to a party worth making an appearance for. So new changes promoting gender equality of being considered in the German Armed Forces the countrys Defense Ministry wanting to roll out special new 4 would have military ranks for women then but critics say there are far more urgent pressing issues that need to be addressed 1st when it comes to women serving in the army as our europe correspondent peter oliver explains the latest upgrade to the German Military to see any new high tech weaponry or equipment but a with vision of the language used to address female soldiers defenseman. Kadam bio is expected to make the announcement on choose day while a. K. K. House and being part of the planning of this move it does fit with the telling of development she wants to see in the German Forces the minister has not yet been involved in work on this particular issue but in general equality between women and men is a consistent guiding principle in the pool for the federal ministry of defense linguistic equality is one of many issues the female form of political rank is well known to germans angle of a is for outcome so that in well her predecessor schroder d was her counselor the changes to military protocol would follow similar lines except for the ranks of top to the colonel which would change the reaction to the news has been far from overwhelmingly positive with some politicians asking if this is really the most pressing issue facing the poem does that today gender equality for me means that military rank doesnt differentiate between genders but that it is about the same rights and duties we need military forces there are operational the key people this is not the time for discussion about general Compliance Service designations for soldiers we have more important things to do can anyone tell me which problem in the armed forces will be solved by gender tranks its nice to have but right now female soldiers do not have adequate protective vests or boots so there are more pressing issues im not a defense official but im pretty sure that we men in the buddhist fair truly have bigger problems than female ranks when viewed alongside the blunders as issues with far right extremism and problems up dating and maintaining equipment this hardly seems like the most glaring of obvious changes phonic today. In it will have to wait until tuesday to find out what the defense ministers plans really are the question is to what extend the mineral brains are complying and the needs of german women in the business. Said the outcome would be that people start thinking that the german army is school and feminists open minded and gendered this is a facade to the outside world and they p. R. Strategy of the blunders than the actual problems how ever are ignored when you talk to female soldiers beatty mons and criticize completely Different Things like for example missing and defective equipment protective clothing and so on the women in the business may even reject changing the ranks into female ranks this whole debate in my opinion is just there to ignore some other issues in the army like Sexual Harassment right Wing Networks or in the army or the fact that the bonus bet is redundant. Ahead right here this shooter in los angeles the liberty targeting to Police Officers made high tension over and see Police Brutality protests im going to cause massive reaction to it including from President Trump so i was make of an hour in this monday the 14th of september.

Join me every thursday on the alex simon show and ill be speaking to us from the world of politics or business im show business ill see you there. Again good morning the greek Prime Minister has welcomed the departure of a turkish ship from disputed waters of the mediterranean calling the 1st step towards deescalation the research 1st it was at the center of a row between ankara and southern e. U. Countries over oil and Gas Exploration for more than a month over the last week president there were exchanged some pretty harsh words with his french counterpart after money mccrone called turkeys presence in the region an acceptable. Mr mccraw you will have many more problems. Dont mess with the turkish nation. Today turkey is no longer a partner in this region turkey is an ally within nato but an ally which is engaged in unacceptable practices on the libyan coast so what is this all about in its simplest form oiling guess or at least the potential reserves thought to lie and the Mediterranean Sea on the one hand there is turkey which feels it has every right to explore these untapped sits on the other its age old rival greece it contains the areas where turkish vessels are deployed a located above its Continental Shelf so any reserves are greek but the story gets a lot more complicated especially now that other countries have waited a while we regret that turkey has not responded to the repeated calls by the European Union to end its unilateral and illegal activities in the Eastern Mediterranean and the aegean sea. The lead is over 70 countries on the mediterranean have also banded together saying that they already back sanctions against turkey if shuns dialogue we maintain that in absence of progress in engaging turkey into a dialogue and unless it ends its unilateral activities the e. U. Is ready to develop a list of further restrictive measures now one of the overarching disputes in the eastern med is about drilling rights this has exposed deeper issues with 2 military powerhouses france and turkey at loggerheads a relationship thats been unraveling some time france has increased its naval presence in the sea and called for the withdrawal of turkish pulis and ships in the meantime it stands to benefit from increased tensions between greece and turkey despite a deep recession greece is stocking up on military supplies with a Shopping List worth billions for is likely to take the biggest slice of the pie has come to reinforce the armed forces this immediately acquiring a squadron of 18 french fighter jets with replacement of the old. This backs up fears that this is a much more than just an angry exchange of words greek and turkish navy sailors already lined up in parts of the mediterranean diplomats fearing one false move could spark a full blown conflict a conflict that could see strong with nato allies finding themselves on opposing sides but one could also truer in other actors all with claims to those potential oil and gas reserves imbedded deep beneath the sea thats egypt cyprus italy libya and thats just the start and thats all. Hes come to the table and negotiate in good faith every are choppy waters ahead so it ought see paris. In a case that shocks pretty and shock of all Los Angeles County in california to local Law Enforcement officers who are in a Critical Condition after being targeted by a gunman on saturday in what authorities are described as a cowardly ambush check this Surveillance Video that the shooter could be seen walking up to a patrol car and opening fire to county sheriffs deputies one male the other female were inside the vehicle both suffered multiple gunshot wounds a manhunt underway for the suspect with a 10000. 00 reward now being offered today then saturday night a crowd showing up outside the very hospital where the deputies are being treated. 0 6. Well according to the l. A. County Sheriffs Office protesters blocked emergency exits and were heard shouting derogatory terms about Law Enforcement 2 people were arrested there were the crowds later dispersed by police calls the Bigger Picture as weve been showing you so often of late but its of them following months of unrest over Police Brutality across the u. S. Conservative talk radio host dave perkins told us these vicious attacks against police right now are unlike anything the country seen before in his view. Its the clearest evidence of a complete foundational moral inversion that ive ever seen in all the history of mankind and i never thought i would see it while i was still alive i want you to hear it the level of belief and joy in the voices of the people shouting that they hope those Police Officers die this is the sense that they are morally right that what they are doing as the element of righteousness and proper punishment almost all sorts applying to them in which they are right and we are wrong and because of that theyre very happy to be doing what theyre doing especially when they get away with it and nobody stops them for any reason theyre getting away with there right now what were seeing i think on a grand scale is an inversion of more reality whats right is wrong and whats wrong is right. Afghanistan so more clashes between Government Forces and the taliban just for story peace talks got under way in qatar on saturday those peace talks were part of a troop withdrawal signed between the u. S. And the taliban in february meantime controversy over alleged bad teams on the heads of american soldiers in afghanistan. Quite conveniently maybe. With the u. S. Elections looming lets try and piece together all not open some time stories dont become outdated they simply reemerge when certain political entities need them this summer a huge scandal broke out when it was alleged by u. S. Media that russia was paying bounties to the taliban for the killing of u. S. Soldiers though no concrete evidence to substantiate that was ever provided though many have probably forgotten the story it has now resurfaced conveniently as senators are pushing their rush of bounty response act. Days after the date of the in the months of this act the 62 states should submit to the appropriate congressional committees and leadership a strategy on how the United States will diplomatically counter russian influence in the region of south and central asia now the bill would prohibit all property transactions as well as entry to the United States 5 lattimer putin his closest aides along with many prominent political and business individuals in russia quite a stiff hill it goes after their family members and all the major supporters of this deal happen to be democrats they say they want to send a message to the russian president and apparently his american counterpart congress has an obligation to step in and act put in his embolden by president trans competed lieschen and is increasing his aggressive behavior which includes putting bounties on american troops the lives of American Service members are at stake i urge senators on both sides of the aisle to join us in protecting our servicemembers and sending a strong message to putin now its not all about sanctioning putin or criticizing donald trump there happens to be quite a bit of money involved. There is all through has to be appropriated 50000000. 00 for each of fiscal years 2021 through 2026 for programming that provides rewards to individuals who provide information on russian bounties against United States forces and additional 30000000. 00 will go to combat the influence of russia in central and southern asia but the bill has still more goals in the minds of its sponsors. The russia bound to response act is necessary to protect americans against peace since bounty driven killing and trumps reprehensible in action strong sanctions and other steps will give peace in the only incentive he understands hitting him and his surrogates who are so its anti russia and trump and it promotes democracy but does it really have much to do with the lives of american soldiers that remains of question i would expect any clearer compelling evidence to be made to support these claims well this illustrates the old age where the Intelligence Community namely it could be claimed that by doing so those sources and methods would be revealed or that it would compromise an Ongoing Investigation ultimately i dont think the rewards will be paid and thats because thats not the real into behind the bill here its a matter of public spectacle regardless of those who support or oppose the Trump Presidency i would actually question time this given how close we are to chipotle actually provided that this film now says the house will be voted down the line in the senate the one party lines republican members of the senate have critters and porches to try to present the what you call into question the 300 the president s integrity alternately undermine their favorite dodie among registered voters in my opinion. Well so i think because so far some past 11 our moscow time for man the team check out our sea dog or any of our social media thats being updated for you every minute of the day but this problem to not say more for me in an hour. The world is driven by shaped by. The dares thinks. We dare to ask. A new gold rush is underway and gonna thousands of ill equipped workers off flocking to the gold fields hoping to strike it rich is the book. That you know if either of those that were children are torn between gold. My family was very poor i thought i was doing my best to get back to school which side will have the strongest appeal. Theres a ladder we found. In the desert and somebody jumped over the wall and then we. We flew for these waters jobs out there and these racist groups slice them open with knives its really sad and we find shotgun shells people
