I probably will be meeting with president putin we have been terminated that big i was thinking about it and getting a full report on the plane. We begin the day with one hundred seventy German Police officers walking into georgia Banks Main Office this morning and they did not bother to knock first the headquarters of germanys largest lender in frankfurt raided today as part of an investigation into possible Money Laundering suspicions first came to light in twenty sixteen in the panama data leak the leak was reportedly led investigators to focus on two unnamed bank employees. Prosecutors said today the raid should not have surprised anyone. Defy docked.

When for dogs from their money is said to have floated Deutsche Bank with the Bank Reporting any suspicion of Money Laundering. Or baking analysts today said that this latest probe could end up being a mortal blow to georgia now the company is no stranger to Money Laundering allegations in fact bank is considered problematic just about every financial regulator from germanys to the u. K. And also at the u. S. Federal reserve today said it is already cooperating in this latest investigation. We thought that we had provided to the authorities all the relevant information regarding punishment papers and of course we will know cooperate closely with the prosecutors here in frankfurt online and in germany as it is and also an interest to clarify the facts as soon as possible. Are doing at the big table now is our business a crystal. There potentially criminal business and some analysts have been saying that this today could end up being a mortal blow to georgia bacon how much trouble is the bank in tonight well for these are yet again one might say series of occasions i mean we heard in the report that allegedly theres a bank staff involved in putting up an entity in the British Virgin islands and on tax haven there by handling the business of three hundred to nine hundred clients to the tune of three hundred Million Euros so thats the accusation and bit demonio being handled allegedly being connected to the crime or are quite having being acquired illegally now heres the problem for daughter back. Payment transfer and handling Payments Processing payments of client is one of the last segments the bank is still a Global Player so the bank is handing billions and billions and billions of euros and dollars around the world and thereby the one might say a couple of millions that may have been involved here the illegal ones they get lost somewhere in the in the numbers nevertheless these are of course allegations that no company that does lawful business want to have on the record exactly i mean its about your reputation and p. R. And what happened today was not a surprise and weve known this was coming ever since the revelations in the Panama Papers this is not the first time that the bank has been accused of financial misbehavior whom you and i we have been talking about issues like like that regarding dodger bank the problem is it just cant seem to shake off its past its problematic past the Federal Reserve had its on on this list for troubled banks the i. M. F. Just two years ago called it the most dangerous bank in the world and it was fined just for the case of selling bad Mortgage Backed securities in the u. S. Seven billion dollars just in that case alone and German Authorities just get this installed their own watchdog inside the bank mind you an independent watchdog because they have the feeling that the cleaning up of the act does not go fast enough and thorley enough and this case you know the bank is looking at potentially fines in the millions staff could go to go to jail if convicted the share price is already at a level that doesnt you know bring joy to anybody and public reputation wise there hasnt been have been few companies that have been battered as but betty just weve heard before that this was the beginning of the end for the debate but it is the biggest bank is deutsche of being in germany so. You know is it going to be knocked out by this well its hard to say definitely but if heres the thing banks have been bending the rules so that to the point where theyve been breaking the rules i mean weve seen that in the past numerous times but theyve been able to pay fines and move on. Here but the bank hasnt turned a profit in two years and so its going to be harder and harder to come up with these fines and this cumulative effect could be the Crucial Point for Deutsche Bank that could serve the final bill and thats what c. E. O. Kristens leaving not has to deal with he promised that the bank will be profitable again next year the hard to do you know hard to do it justice may be hard to get but punishment comes easy especially when youre only looking at the bottom line which is what they do christopher thank you. Who would help ukraine if russia invaded and started a full blown war ukraines president says that russia is preparing to attack ukraine would we know would be no match to russias military might yet nato has rejected calls for mr poroshenko to intervene to ensure the free passage of ukrainian ships in the old sea now that is where a naval standoff with russian ships took place on sunday right off the coast of Russian Occupying crimea russia seized three ukrainian vessels and arrested ukrainian sailors moscow denies kievs accusations that it is blocking vessels from entering or leaving ukrainian ports. No nato or who or what can help ukraine u. S. President trump says that europe namely german chancellor Angela Merkel should step up to the plate merkel has experience in mediating between kiev and moscow diplomatic string yes but merkel is making it clear she is not considering a military solution or more economic sanctions against russia. Thought since the bitter despite the Current Situation we ask ukraine to be smart because we can only resolve this in talks with one another because there is no military solution to all of these conflicts this needs to be said of all. Kinds of yours we dont impose sanctions for the sake of sanctions we make those sanctions to make it clear that countries need to have the right to selfdetermination even when they are close to russia. Thats based off and i thought was the german chancellor Angela Merkel well the president of ukraine mr poroshenko he has urged his military to be ready for a possible invasion he has imposed martial law in Border Regions hes also threatened to impose restrictions on russian citizens in his country our correspondent Nick Connelly is on the ground in the city of mariupol heres his report while we still dont really know to the full extent of how its actually how its going to be interpreted here in america where i am now things have already been pretty strict for the last two years we are directly within about fifteen kilometers of the front line in some regions of ukraine weve heard about restrictions on freedom of assembly demonstrations effectively banned there are new rules restricting basically making it impossible for foreigners to enter crimea legally from ukraine but this still has a whole month to go and seems right now that even the Ukrainian Government doesnt really know what powers that they potentially now have theyre actually going to end up using. And that was our nick conley there reporting from mariupol in ukraine all right lets take the story now to Fabrice Pulte he is chief strategist at last muse in global he is former nato head of policy planning and a current Senior Consulting fellow at the International Institute for strategic studies stories we appreciate you joining us tonight ukrainian president asking for help from nato it doesnt look like hes going to get it should he be getting something from nato. I think he should be getting something from the west whether it should be nato or the European Union or the coalition of western countries diets in a way certain very question but which is clear is that the response from the west has been quite weak and i think the chancellor is right to die i know but theres no doubt i know if there are no means of pressure to push especially must go to come to the table so i think we hold on tight you know theys no military sort of shunt crisis but then military means to get to a point of fighting sort of and i think this is where both ear opens but also the americans have thought of a shot and but if you dont if you dont have nato and you dont have the u. S. Military then what do you have to counter act the military might of russia theres no one there right. Well i dont think its about entering into direct military confrontation weve russia its about exerting enough pressure on different fronts on russia in order for the russians to stop this going ating and to stop basically triggering darrick declaration against a neighbor how can we do that well first this stuff we sanctions this is the art of choice for the European Union and why should we not increase strengths and some of the sanctions already in place extend them from six to twelve month thats a first second thing why not having an Observation Mission that the one we have in Eastern Ukraine extend it to the coast including to seal unself with drones and weve navy ships that would be observing especially the Russian Naval forces how they behave and what they do so we are not going to buy basically the russian provide dont not telling us that its the ukrainians who have provoked the consultation and finally i think you have to sort of at toll especially on which Energy Supplier abedini is choosing to sustain the gemini could it be and i think to put into question too will be will go a long way to actually put pressure on law schools ok it is interesting you bring up the nord stream pipeline. In the u. S. President he is not a fan of that project we know that now with the project has come under fire. Again following sundays naval clash i want you to take a listen to how germanys foreign minister today justified why germany should not divest from the pipeline take a listen to a system on north street regarding the issue of nord stream to withdrawing German Companies from the project wouldnt mean that the gas pipeline wouldnt be built to russia would just build it by itself go to them from wasnt. And i know a good knowledge of it and some say we believe we have an interest in getting politically involved and being part of the pipeline which we built in any case. I mean whats your reaction that he has a valid point but at the same time it sounds like you said hes saying that russia can do whatever russia wants to do even with germany exactly and i think this argument of say well this is going to happen so its better to be part of it than not part of it is a bit biting its ok clearly if if German Companies getting out of the north street to project significantly increase the cost of building the pipeline and i think this is all about again most fulfilling the cost of its behavior and yet again we have no putting in of cuts so its not about this is any stopping everything that is about telling was cool you behave badly you are going to cure costs so getting to German Companies out of nothing too would be another way we sanctions with some kind of separation mission to increase the pressure on whats cool because were not change when not seeing it dont behavior this is the bottom line and we know that the u. S. President he would like to see that pipeline be shut down and he would like to see europe buying natural gas liquefied natural gas from the United States so if if the germans were to follow your your strategy it would be a win win for europe and all went wrong. Well i think youre going to be too fast no stream too is in fact about the pipeline replacing an already existing pipeline thats as much more capacity than north st two which flows through ukraine but obviously the russians dont like the fact that they have to pay ukraine Something Like up to two billion dollars every year for twenty treaties so not stream two is not about bidding war compass it is just about stealing away the capacity that already exists that goes by ukraine and to divert it directly to germany so its more political job political project than a commercial so its not about buying mall American Energy but used to just about using whats already exist but obviously that the russians dont talk the night because again they have to pay some transit fees and before and of time varies i want to ask you about martial wall being declared in the eastern parts of ukraine the west has been very silent about that should it be. I think you have to go back to how the ukrainians as a whole feel about russian aggression remember the twenty four team they could not trigger an emotional didnt you dont have all the forces in evil they dont even have communication with their forces even in the Crimean Peninsula so these are psychology control money here and if think president bush incl invoking a martian rule for thirty days is a way to say we are ready as a nation to face and extend that aggression psychologically and put it to create is very important i understand that the whole fruition and the that lou is going to be limited only in some specific areas of ukraine so its not been applied across the whole territory that symbolically matters all right for every point here joining us tonight from brussels we appreciate you taking the time to talk with us and share your insights thank you piers. Well if war does break out as many fear ukraine will again become the epicenter of a major geopolitical shock but tonight the attention of World Leaders who admit that they are worried well theyre nowhere near kiev trying what is our World Leaders are gathering in the argentinian capital for the g. Twenty Summit Global trade Climate Change are on the agenda but the escalating tensions between ukraine and russia will domany especially for two president s who may or may not be meeting again after all. But a mere putin has taken more than ukrainian sailors captive in the as a of c. His high stakes military and political maneuvering has ensured the group of twenty meeting will be dominated by two people the kremlin chief and his u. S. Counterpart donald trump just like last years g twenty when russian meddling in u. S. Elections overshadowed the agenda the president s havent met one on one since their july summit in helsinki where trumps behavior toward putin was bizarrely submissive leaving huge questions looming over between asides european leaders and his advisors back home all wants to show a united front and thats really our objective it doesnt really matter so much whats the practical steps are as long as we can show united front because remember putins objective is to sow discord in this unity in the western alliance europes geography dooms it to being caught in the middle of moscow and washington politically when tensions flare in those capitals brussels feels the burn it will be difficult for the europeans to see their concerns on global trade addressed while navigating other diplomatic danger zones the receive many things go home could. Cause problems i mean. She jinping will be the. Its possible that if there is language on trades that. Says something very negative about china or. But others will want to Say Something very negative about protectionism and trump will insist that protectionism is good and americas first. Defeat you will say you have the saudis that as the end bond points out even more Political Drama will be ensured by the presence of saudi arabias Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman accused of ordering the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi many european leaders have expressed outrage and scaled back ties that trump hasnt one thing is certain about this g. Twenty there are going to be some tough really awkward photo ops indeed that theyre reporting will there be another sit down between donald trump and bloodier putin at the g twenty well it depends on which president you ask and what time of the day it is this morning the rendezvous on the sidelines look like a go then mid air from inside air force one a tweet appeared from the u. S. President tweeted based on the fact of the ships and sailors have not been returned to ukraine from russia i have decided it would be best for all parties concerned to cancel my previously scheduled meeting in argentina with president Vladimir Putin<\/a> began the day thinking that his meeting with u.

S. President tweeted based on the fact of the ships and sailors have not been returned to ukraine from russia i have decided it would be best for all parties concerned to cancel my previously scheduled meeting in argentina with president Vladimir Putin<\/a> i look forward to a meaningful summit again as soon as the situation is resolved. Well apparently no one told the kremlin about the white House Counsel<\/a> lation mr putins spokesman saying that he had not been informed of any scheduling change i advise you to watch this space change seems to happen a lot. It change happens changing alliances are happening apparently as we speak Michael Cohen<\/a> u. S. President trumps former personal lawyer and confidant has pleaded guilty to lying to congress about work he did on a trunk real estate project in russia cohen made a surprise appearance thursday in a new york court room to enter the plea he admitted making false statements in two thousand and seventeen to a Senate Intelligence<\/a> committee about a plan to build a trump tower in moscow. President trump has denied working on that plan and says that mr coburn is launching in the hopes of getting a wider prison sentence it was convicted of various things unrelated that. He was given a fairly long jail sentence and hes a weak first advice think we would like other people that watch hes a weak person and what hes trying to do is get a reduced set so hes lying about a project that everybody knew about i mean we were very open to. Fact check very cant get a reduced sentence yet because he hasnt been sentenced yet that comes in december well senior democrats say that Michael Cohen<\/a> may not have been the only person why would you take a listen to what adam schiff from california said today he becomes chair of the house Intelligence Committee<\/a> in january. In terms of. The russian vest a geisha and and clearly indicates that the special counsel is getting meaningful cooperation from mr cohen what would you do to determine whether or not there was any Financial Leverage<\/a> to the russians have a right. Well i think we need to look into one of those things are credible allegations that the russians may have a laundry money to the trump organization. Wow our lives to is now the ones where your correspondent in washington good evening to you maya the democrats they must be looking their jaws i mean clear words from adam schiff they are they were going to be giving any clues what we can expect once they take control of those key Health Committees<\/a> well as in they seem to be licking their chops as you said chomping at the bit might be another metaphor we could use not only did we hear from adam shift today but we saw several rather prominent democrats come out to condemn the various going on that have been happening around the president we saw senator Kristen Gillibrand<\/a> of new york whos a rumored twenty twenty president ial candidate talking about the culture of corruption around the president we saw another high ranking democrat on the Senate Intelligence<\/a> Committee Mark<\/a> warner of virginia talking about the pattern of trump allies caught not telling the truth and pleading guilty to various charges and even senator Dianne Feinstein<\/a> whos a prominent democrat from california talking about how this all raises very serious questions about what else trump knew what else trump was involved in there really seems like the democrats are well as has been rumored or really sort of. Arming a can in full of pinas that theyre getting ready to fire at the white house come january thats thats good a subpoena cannon the democrats saying that Michael Cohen<\/a> may not have been the only person lawyer who in the world are they talking about. Its difficult to peer into a Robert Mullers<\/a> crystal ball here but one of we do know that one of the events that has been a main focus of this investigation has been this legendary trump tower meeting that happened during the campaign between don junior the president s son jared questioner the president s son in law and this russian lawyer there were even rumors flying earlier this month that don jr was being prepared to the indicted so again with this can involve subpoenas that might come off i might fire off in january well find out fairly quickly who house may or may not be caught out lying but there has been a lot of a scrutiny and focus around the participants in that meeting at trump tower and were about twenty seconds left. Everything put together here that were seeing happening in washington it looks like the more investigation is about to come. Will close your group thats certainly what people are expecting possibly even before the end of the year and of course the next question is well what happens then we have this interim attorney general who suddenly was brought up with the firing of former attorney general Jeff Sessions<\/a> who we know is much more sympathetic to trumps view of wanting to shut the russian vesting down now he hasnt done that yet its been allowed to go forward but the question is ok lets assume that the investigation is allowed to wrap up and the proper bowler and his team write this report what happens that is they report actually released to the public is it hidden away is it pushed underground whats going to happen i will find we will definitely find out and well be talking with you im sure my eyes were on the story boards tonight in washington michael as always thank you. Well the conversation continues online you know find us on twitter either at the w. News or you can write directly to me off t. V. Dont forget to use the hash tag today and remember whatever happens between now and then tomorrow is another day well see you then ever.
