Alex an avanti was a victim of an attack with a chemical nerve agent of the navi child group this poison could be identified unequivocably in tests so its clear that alex nirvana is the victim of a crime he was supposed to be silent and i together with the entire German Government condemned it in the strongest possible terms this is disturbing information about the attempted murder through poisoning against a leading russian opposition figure. Nadeem baba has more from london theyve been very very forthright and they apparently are very very sure of what theyre saying chancellor merkel in the last half hour at a press conference said the following this is a disturbing information about the attempted murder of 3 poisoning against a leading russian opposition figure alexina valmy was the victim of an attack with a chemical nerve agent of the novacek group this poison could be identified unequivocally in tests were reminded that those tests were carried out at a German Military laboratories from blood samples from Alexei Navalny who is still in the sheraton a hospital in central berlin and officials at the hospital in the last hour have said that hes still in a serious condition in an induced coma in intensive care theyre saying that the effects of the poisoning are actually declining but theyre saying that they expect a long illness and there could well be long term serious effects on his health well lets get the view from moscow now journalist alexander story out of a joins us from there alexander the kremlin unsurprisingly babs pushing back. Yes of course and the minister of Foreign Affairs called it this way of statements coming from germany a bullhorn diplomacy saying that the burden is disregarding the usual and existing mechanisms of corporation and that these statements are actually not supported with facts the press secretary actually a spokeswoman for the Ministry Said that when the Russian Ambassador i asked in germany about some details about the fact that he was given and then the russian is a Foreign Affairs owls the whole situation is to give reason for putting measures on the russia that theyre already decided for and the spokesperson of russian president Vladimir Putin made of discourse said that russia actually cannot give a response with competence until it gets information from germany actually or fish will reply to their or fish will request that would provide them with the analysis that were with the blood samples and urine samples all of it alex a number in the valley and his general states or actually saying what actually they said in the script file case we are ready to cooperate we want to cooperate but we also want to Exchange Information so theyre turning they will theyre saying to germany cooperate with with us otherwise and provide us with facts otherwise this is this is all just a smokescreen and so far we did not see evidence speaking of the scriptural case alexander the germans are saying this talk centers from the same family of toxins used to target so i guess does that make it then potentially harder for the kremlin to distance itself here. Well that is actually hard to say because the answer would be both yes and no because they did this to themselves in the case of scrape by they distance themselves from 2 suspects and that was identified by that were identified by Scotland Yard as the Intelligence Officers of military intelligence of russia they presented them so these are juries they were big have nothing to do with that then the state of russia has nothing to do with that they were also saying you can produce novacek actually in other laboratories since the formula has been published somewhere in the beginning of of 2000 but at the same time you know the russian opposition is saying not a chalk again it is like kind of a signature on a cry for russian opposition there is no above that out so that he was deliberately poisoned accent of irony and that they are clearly pointing and openly pointing fingers at the kremlin and to the highest of russian officials Alexander Stille janowicz got for that with a view from moscow thanks very much alexandra.

S. Said that iraq is caught in this conflict and therefore france in iraq was actually something to grieve because it was a country which will pause the bombing in 2003 so therefore faith that is voice can carry and just be some kind of object to achieve or all as a holistic broker and try to use Old Fashioned diplomacy in order to try to help iraq out of its it couldnt make the government out of its Political Party government and france is very concerned today on a day when the child.

Well katz was a man has stressed the need for a fair resolution to the Israeli Palestinian conflict through the pursuit of a 2 state solution shechtman been any hosted President Trump Senior Advisor on wednesday question has made a stop and during his tour of the middle east hes looking to gain the support of more arab nations the announce the u. S. Brokered deal to normalize relations between the u. A. E. And israel is still yet to be formalized but palestinians have denounced the deal saying it betrays their rights on monday the white house advisor arrived in the u. A. E.

D. P. Double peoples incomes give them a 1000000 new jobs and give them hope and so right now they have a structure where theres not the right governance in place for people to want to be investing there and thats why the jobs have been held back for the Palestinian People so there is an offer now on the table for the palestinians and hopefully when theyre ready theyll and gauge and again President Trump is very committed to seeing the Palestinian People live a better life as are all of the leaders in this region.
