Discussing it. Its not that people are not as that thats maybe an impression in moscow but theres a very broad debate which has now subsided because an increasing part of the population is understanding that there is an economic and social problem and social question is usually have a condom our own content so you cannot sit separate social and moral bases small issues well mr been called we have to take a short break now but we will be back in just a few moments statement. Its. Been twenty four to you know bloody revolution to correct the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be increasingly violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it you know hiccup what if i mean your list put pretty would put him in the. School in the middle of the fall the ukrainian president recalls the events of twenty fourteen. Those who took part in this today over five billion dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. Plate for many clubs over the years so i know the guy even so i got. The ball isnt only about what happens on the pitch put a final school its about the passion from the fans its the age of the superman each of killian and erroneous and spending through to the twenty million aplomb playa. Well its an experience like nothing else on to because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful guy a great so well more transfer. And thinks this minute. Stein is Getting International recognition with the help of israel at least in the world of zoos and to kiss it like you know. These might come but he is going to have to study all media to. Shun. The only palestinians who gets the most hope from his to resume counterparts i dont think it is about those who are under the vision to know who could do this and. I know it is unfair advantage to have to this lady of the most of it you had i not going to compete in the doesnt seem to do more commitments also dont piss off. Our. Welcome back to worlds apart but were getting calls at that trend german politician and former prime minister. Mr putin called just before the break we were talking about lead a ship and Angela Merkel has been in power for quite a long time almost as long as of. Now one of the benefits of staying in power for so long is obviously the experience but on the other hand there are multiple studies suggesting that when people stay in power for that long their perception of reality changes in many important ways youve been a Political Animal for most of the alive how long is too long for ahead of state. If you has now have. Has now three terms three terms. If i would have asked her if she would have. Asked me i would say be very careful with trying to get a fourth one the same problem arose was handled cool and the fourth term he had was only really accepted because he heads to whites two different blocks of terms of. Chancellor and decided in a divided Church Germany and chancellor in a united germany. But if i were to. Able to reform our constitution on that issue i would look very much to countries that have limited the election of person of individual to the top government position like in the United States where just one reelection is possible you can also have two maria lections but if you have a limitation then the government is almost forced the by the situation to think about the continuation through electing. People in the next term. You have more mobility now Angela Merkel and put in may have very different personalities but the political trajectories do you have certain overlaps both have been in power for quite some time and both now deal with the countrys. Going press following changes in germany its the reintegration off migrants in russia its economic and hopefully political reforms do you think established leaders like that can change with the times in politics can you teach an all dog new. They dont change they have a political leader that has been in office a very long time usually feels that he has done everything well so he could continue. And hes not very receptive to the idea that not the leader but the general condition has changed much should change in response to the change in society you know that ties between the russia and germany have very long and perhaps a very complicated history and they certainly a big hit in two thousand and fourteen after the events in crimea and more broadly in ukraine do you think we will still see any improvement between our countries while i. Lied to put in for that matter are in office so will we have to wait for somebody to replace them to a certain extent and. Both countries are interested and should be interested in relations. To have two or three objectives the most objective is to maintain peace. Jobless of conflicts may arise the second issue is. Exchange and Technological Exchange but is specially trade trading between there is a lot of trade third there is and must should be an offer to understand the differences. As have always been the relationship between russia and germany we have different histories way beyond back we have different philosophies we have different attitudes towards government and we have differences too. In the extent of participation of the population. In government issues so we should learn why this is so and we should understand now you mentioned the issue of trade and i know that you come from east germany just last month we had leaders from five lands and is germany coming out with a statement saying that they are opposed sanctions against russia because they view them as both inefficient and unfair that point was that is germany is paying a much higher price for those sanctions than west germany do you think they have a point and do you think that voices are heard in berlin well i dont think you should put too much emphasis on these statements do have certain sanctions and we have considered them well and it is very difficult and of course vice versa would also russia would also try to influence the behavior of germany and say restraint in trade and. Commit forms of communication. Im not a very good friend of sanctions but there are always some issues that one or the other country is trying by rate of sanctions to change the attitude of the other party. And i dont think you can do it way of with that as to the size of germany german states in terms of population all of them the five of them have as much population the same size of bavaria. So that the five important but they certainly do not form. Germany. From more so european. Activities and the trade field now you mentioned the sanctions one of the purposes of sanctions is that to change the behavior most of the german sanctions originate in russia is perceived behavior in crimea americal believes the borders should not be changed and perhaps i think on some level even Vladimir Putin will agree with her on that but the im sure you understand that for russia in crimea it was not only a matter of principle it was a matter of Strategic Security the expansion of nato the possibility of losing the the base in the black sea and those when you deal with Strategic Security its very difficult to uphold principles even if you agree with that do you think russia could have played any other way alternatively do you think that russia is likely to. Repeat what has happened in crimea. This is a very difficult question that i would have to say youre volatile because it reaches far beyond the issue of of sanctions that we have chests discussed Bank Sanctions could be could be justified im just. As a business reservation in relationship to. The developments in ukraine or another border states. And as in the feeling of your or not germany alone of europe the development in. Your career in your crane is considered to be unfortunate and now the only the only way to end to put this. To put this to russia is not by just simply arguing but also. By. Introducing. Corporations or. So solutions of conflict in this field so far we havent been very successful. That well you know that the crimean issue at least for russia is closely linked to nato its is for the expansion reach traces its roots back to german reunification and the promises. That vera made to moscow back down and out were not necessarily. Kind of promises have made if that was not prevented were not carried through while it is believed at least if this is an opinion in moscow. Russia was promised that nato will not expand to the east following the reunification of germany it has no other say. It has not expanded towards. Unless countries in the east as to be permitted to join but the nature of such has not expanded well i think that mr gorbachev there for the last president and the first president of the soviet union even in his memoirs stated quite clearly that this is not how it was perceived at least in russia many perceive that there was an explicit promise made and would not keep moving towards russian borders and maybe that has been a misunderstanding but rather than arguing about that i want to ask you whether you believe germany has any special overall in solving the issue here in ukraine in helping Russia Ukraine others to come to certain accommodation or whether you believe this is just a European Security issue that has to be handled by all well. I dont think in this particular case since one of the basic. And dominating purposes of the European Union is to keep the peace thats from thats from where the union idea started after the Second World War and so if there is the route to rid the relationship to your crane if there are these differences basic differences developed having developed in the eastern thought. It is a european issue and germany is acting was in this european understanding we have no special nose we dont see we have special responsibility here the european responsibility is the governing idea mr been called three have to leave it there i really appreciate you being on the show today on to our viewers please keep the conversation going and our social media pages for me i hope to see you again same place same time here on a well to part. I. Used to most lose no me spokesmen. Just music first thing in the room with them which is this mission monacos a. Little bit some of it is just almost trying. To get through some are. Just. The protocol it is hard coded to dismantle the fia world as we know it and those sued trying to get their way will be destroyed by it but those who want to come on board like a friendly regulator thats ok i am a bit wary though you know its the classic Good Cop Bad Cop scenario you that one regulator any one if the government comes with the kiff do you have to be a little leery. Of half. The girls i want to do things or show me very stupid to be very clear. The way yo. Then they have. To feel the. Sun and then what do you how much. Do you. Measure. Sorry. Im not they dont know. Everything. One of the deadliest campus shootings in u. S. History seventeen people are dead and around a dozen injured at a high school in florida. Lock the door we turned off the lights and we waited for the police it was clear for us to leave dead body there on the floor and blood on the floor British Government accused of turning its back on interpreters to help its military in afghanistan we speak exclusively to one whose asylum appeals been rejected. On the u. S. T. V. Network releases a vast database of tweets allegedly used by moscow to influence the twenty sixteen president ial election even though some must scathing of russia and dish out praise and criticism. I know from a news team here at r. T. International with you in moscow with your hourly updates first off this hour another School Massacre in the United States this time at a high school in florida seventeen people are dead and at least a dozen others are reported injured video emerged online which seems to be from one of the classrooms while the attack was underway but please be warn that it contains upsetting scenes. As the shots rang out side inside the school of the city of parkland panic students were seen running to safety this video that youre watching right now was taken while the gunman was still on the attack its understood that the killer settle for fire alarm to draw people into the open to cause as many injuries as possible armed officers rapidly swarmed the campus before leading pupils and staff to safety. All the way pictures from the scene show the distress of those touched by the tragedy heres how it unfolded. He saw my dead body there on the floor and blood over on the floors how many people like five on the third floor. It looked like students there was one teacher and four students. So they do pull the fire drill we want to side boom boom boom boom. At those firecrackers but at their last showering oh im out. So i like to come in bringing a gun to shoot at school you like start taking a family i love the clean air no a biggish are killed. I want to start up i say this is catastrophic. And on the way to be catastrophic again Broward County history its devastating im sick to my stomach. Of a deadly shooting took place at the Marjory StonemanDouglas High School in the city of parkland it was named the safest city in florida last year and one of the safest in the United States police have detained a suspect and identified him as Nicholas Cruz hes a nineteen year old former student of the school who was expelled for disciplinary Reasons Police said he was armed with a semiautomatic rifle and had multiple magazines. Students at the school described the suspect as troubled some even said he looked like a Future School shooter that he was a firearms enthusiastic he spent time. There is now believe that Nicholas Cruz had to instagram accounts which have since been deleted and plenty of the pictures show him with weapons former Police Officer dominick is says the suspects Mental Health should be questioned not gun control policies this is an ultimate cry for attention and id like to see the media for the first time not look at this is a gun issue and to shy away from the anatomy object or or start start to look away from why or how these individuals are getting the guns and start looking at the intent behind it why are they doing this whats the Mental Health of this person whats their personal individual issue if theres one thing that we do know its been proven time and time again that the gun itself does not do any damage but the issue is the person behind it their intent their motives their means the u. S. Has a long history of School Shootings there have been two hundred seventy five incidents since twenty thirteen thats an average of nearly one a week eighteen shootings have been reported in schools this year alone heres a look at some of the most serious cases from the past decade. So over three hundred million guns is enough for every person in the United States to have a gun its insane and you know we license cars you cant just get in a car and drive it but you can get a gun and shoot it you dont need any training you dont need any licensing. And a lot of states now you can carry them. Undercover illegally theres a lot of nutty miss in this country about how guns make you safer. And they evidences also the contrary. To other news now the British Governments being accused of turning its back on interpreters who helped its military in afghanistan many have received Death Threats from the taliban and say they think cannot remain in the homeland because hes been speaking exclusively to an afghan interpreter hes facing his final bid for asylum in the u. K. They only to give me the notice for deportation they told me that you have to leave the country so theyre going to send me where. I was different and differently because of abdul that he was a front line in tapper said with British Forces and afghanistan from two thousand and eight to two thousand and ten. I know that if i join the British Forces so close for me but i have to do that because our country was. The situation in our country was very bad so i have to help the International Forces to protect other countries so they came to my country to protect us so why should i not hope that working with u. K. Troops made abdul a target for local Taliban Forces that was a phone call from my from my father and a letter put in my door so we know that your son is working for the infidels so tell him to leave the job and they were as he will be slapped are the threats soon turned to violence when the taliban grated on my family my father and my mom and my dad so on that time when that happened he was completely angry all the problems happened to me just because of you creating problems for us with his and his familys lives in danger abdul was forced to flee i did i had enough time to go and see this for protection or Something Like that on it was for me one choice to leave the country he came to britain illegally through cali and applied for asylum on the very first day since then the home office has rejected his initial application and his appeal the government says its safe to return to kabul where he says his life is in danger that was. Ours and justice. Because when i word help the British Forces in a very risky time but at the moment im at risk so i need help but this still ignoring me. As an Asylum Seeker cant work and this is the modest accommodation that the government provides for him he also gets thirty five pounds a week in Living Expenses and he has the constant threat of deportation looming over. Him there are around a thousand afghan interpreters that worked with British Forces around four hundred of them have been given u. K. Visas which means abdul is one of around six hundred who havent qualified the system has been described as unfair and a lot of. Abduls best friend how much managed to win applied for his visa while still in afghanistan and after a two year wait he was brought over to the u. K. Under the governments official afghan interpreter scheme do you feel guilty sometimes that you got the visa and didnt know one visa for every interpreters do spend time over the telephone is on the seventh person you know going to be almost all it will be able to be you searching for people. That they were would. Call me well but not before so. If you want to get back in afghanistan abdul was a professional boxer he cant compete in the u. K. Because he doesnt have a work permit but he can still train since i came here he can do nothing to staying at home going out sometimes they keep him busy with my turnings you googled market woman the human being. Told you very. Few of the challenging part. Of the work. Should be told me but i have a full. View of the world the. Food we should go to people with the rules and we. Need a bus tour all abdul can do now is wait for his final appeal against deportation to be considered by the home Office Problem turf either in afghanistan. Or the same goes
