A newly published u. N. Report calls for an investigation into the Saudi Crown Prince over his possible role in the brutal murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Its 11 oclock here in moscow to International Live from our studio with me welcome to the prize that. Russia has firmly rejected accusations that its military was involved in the downing of Malaysia Airlines flight m h 17 after dutch prosecutors on wednesday charged for suspects with murder over their alleged roles in the 2014 disaster which claimed 298 lives moscow says the case against them relies heavily on falsified video footage supplied to investigators. Joined you know the nail in the studio with more on the days developments. Its the 1st time were hearing names its the 1st time were seeing photos so its 4 names of 4 photographs that we have been shown at the Media Conference just today weve also learned plenty about the intentions of the investigation now theyve announced their intention to charge these people with murder and also they are putting them on the International Wanted list now an interesting detail that all these 4 suspects have in common is that none of them related have any connections to a Russian Military brigade that is accused by the same investigation of smuggling the book Missile Launch system into ukraine that eventually brought down the mh 17 whats russias reaction been to todays that well of course its a big accusation that russia has said that they feel that russia feels nothing but regret over this case and thats because according to the Russian Foreign ministry the joint Investigation Team takes into account information that it received from questionable sources this is how the Foreign Ministry put it now some information is known to have they have known to have gathered some information for instance from social media some of the of the information came from ukraine a biased site a is a site with a horse in this race and russia also once again reiterated its readiness to cooperate and also underline the fact that more school already has done so quite a number of times that that it has provided plenty of information has been knocking on many many doors but it has been sort of ostracized and kept away from the investigation thats an important point is that moscow has provided with data done in the years as you say what did the investigation there for doing well absolutely and i mean the accusations against russia have become sort of a major line like a highway so a thematic highway if i might put it this way at todays Media Conference but the investigators were a bit they sent mixed. Signals because at 1st they were saying that they received no information from russia no corporation whatsoever that russia didnt explain anything and then admitting that they did indeed have received plenty of information and they had they even looked at it well have a listen yourself at the foot of the main if you look back you can establish that from the 1st day after the 17th of july the Russian Federation hasnt disclosed anything about what happened and that is a slap in the face to all the relatives of the victims and i call on them to start cooperating to tell us what happened there we received the information for murder Russian Federation for motion about the missile and the documents about the missile there we also received the rod or other that wasnt clear enough to say exactly what what happens with the missile given didnt give us the right picture we prepared a short clip explaining what they what they received and what they are now saying wasnt clear enough doesnt paint a clear enough picture have a look the previous investigation so many triumphantly shouting accusations at russia but instead of trying to out yell its critics russia showed original documents raw data and experiment results which poked holes in the investigation exhibit a. Russias Defense Ministry dug into its archives and deep it traced the missile based on the pieces discovered among the debris of m. H. 17 the ministry determined its tail number revealing the full life cycle of the project tile manufactured back in the days of the soviet union in 1986 the missile was shipped to a military base in ukraine it never left the territory of the soviet republic and then after the breakup of uses of the country according to the ministrys data the book missile was moved only. Within the borders of ukraine and in 2014 it was set up and stored at a base in the west of the country malaysia has repeatedly criticized this probe even having access to it saying that it was made into a political farce the accusing russians of. But what is the evidence you could even be the Ukrainian Government because the 2 have does him we dont know way we excluded from the examination but from the very beginning we see too much politics in it the idea was not to find out how this happened when all that but you seem to be concerned that it needs to be on russia here we have but these who have some political interests in the matter and they examine so the judge will have to have a look and to weigh the information the evidence presented by both the prosecution and by the defense so if well see how that fares in court how the evidence provided by both. Russia and if anything new comes up how that will fare Russian Ambassador to the. Shelf gave us his views on the latest dutch announcement and outlined some of the main concerns about the investigation. One can only wonder why after all that the. Jews. Do conduct the main. Investigations with those of the of necessary representational malaysia it was an investigation that. Didnt have any evidence of an objective one why are russia offers to provide investigators and to provide whatever evidence we were able to locate they will ignore it on the other hand for reasons that are difficult to explain ukraine became a full fledged member of their journalist a geisha team so it started on a bad food in there would say 5 years ago and continued along that route until now its certainly not finished well see what happens. On in the coming months and i wouldnt exclude years russia has confirmed that it will it is their means openminded to cooperating with the investigation provided of course what we. Provide what we offer to the investigation is usually taken consideration of. The russian of evidence that was provided proved there at the particular model of that book missile belong to a generation that was there has been longer out of service in the Russian Armed forces but was still kept by the Ukrainian Armed forces so this is clear evidence which is corroborated by a 1000000 technical details. Well russia indeed said that it wont abide by the by the ruling provided that russia is part of that investigation which unfortunately is not that good so that doesnt. Make russia responsible for accepting or rejecting. Any old ground that might be. Produced by the rich the if team doesnt of the blue grass roots of. Members of the venezuelan opposition have been implicated in a Corruption Scandal leaked documents appear to reveal that officials from. Quite as movement have been embezzling aid funds for personal use the money was intended for soldiers who defected and fled to neighboring colombia. Humanitarian aid it is more a humanitarian robbery all the money from the famous humanitarian aid fund was stolen of take note washington not only are the opposition liars but they are thieves too thousands of dollars from each other thousands of dollars that raise from an aid concert on the colombian peril spent on hotels prostitute and election by 2 members of quite as party they are in charge of overseeing the humanitarian aid is our senior correspondent. Sex drugs and rocknroll arent something youd associate with a humanitarian aid concert wrongly it seems colombian authorities themselves a shocked and barris that what theyve uncovered and to think it all began so innocently we need to try to help those who are not getting medical help help those who are hungry and today hopefully on the back of this concert we can start maybe getting supplies into that to sway those people who are not suffering so much back then the freshly selfproclaimed the president of venezuela called in the military to defect join him and top of the corrupt regime. We gladly armed forces welcome to the right side of history welcome to the soldiers who are today following the constitution welcome hundreds of soldiers did defect some with families some of the small children they scared to colombia they were put in hotels and by mid march it were living in the streets we are desperate we do not want to stay in colombia we want to return to venezuela but not in the current Living Conditions we do not know. How could this happen out of the 7 hotels that the soldiers were staying in all but 2 were being paid for by the un and the colombian government to hotels is all who and why do those representatives had to pay for except they didnt according to the journalists who broke this story why and why do all of this a month ago. We couldnt allow for any bad managing of money to overshadow what has been a big effort on the part of all venezuelans thats why as soon as we had the information about the Ongoing Investigation we decided to send it straight to every impartial of dorothy. The people who did this bear in mind were appointed by guy do personally and he only chose to speak with the story already Public Knowledge saying transparent investigation is needed also amazingly managing to somehow imply that the venezuelan government does involve culpable complicit and that guy duo doesnt cover up corruption which he kept covered up for at least a month obviously the actual venezuelan government has questions. This huge drop in corruption to divert money that we could use fall Sick Children instead of being spent including medicine that has been used to pay for alcohol prostitutes expensive Shopping Trips and Luxury Hotels as do those allies why is his party which promises to cleanse venezuela of corruption and exercise the demons of the old regime why are these people blowing tens of thousands of dollars in aid money on prostitutes drugs and booze and live a concert that Richard Branson has led along with others in the us pros a chance of february 22nd 23rd is a complete failure plan why dont force inside of venezuela and colombia have been using the money to enrich themselves for luxury staying in 5 star hotels and therefore theyre really showing what theyre about its about wanting to power for personal enrichment the Corruption Scandal is just one small part of what the us is engaging in in this enormous assault a genocidal assault against the people of us well its hundreds of millions its chance of billions of dollars that the u. S. Is stealing in the name of one way though stealing money from the venezuelan people. A report out today says theres credible evidence that the crown prince of saudi arabia is liable for the murder of dissident janice Jamal Khashoggi he was killed in the society consulate in istanbul last year. Remember the brutal murder of Jamal Khashoggi the saudi journalist who was killed in his own countrys embassy well the u. N. Human rights expert is now calling for a criminal probe into the Saudi Crown Princes possible involvement agnus column ards 100 page report suggests its inconceivable that the defacto ruler wouldnt have known about the well planned assassination the 1st Important Message i think my my report highlights. The fact that the execution of the war was the responsibility of the state. A report thats focused on a number of high level officials including the crown prince conflicting turkish and saudi reports immediately followed death in istanbuls Saudi Arabian consulate back in october he was 1st declared missing amidst reports that he was actually chopped into pieces in the building saudi officials said he left but there c. C. T. V. Evidence showed an eyebrow raising body double dressed in clothes after a joint turkish saudi investigation the turks reported tampering of evidence that pointed to murder and all the while saudi authorities continue to claim they didnt know anything that is until 18 days after the investigation when turkish authorities said because shoji died of strangulation saudi arabia then came out saying it was a rogue operation whos written hundreds of companies has nothing to do with this issue. The National Security adviser in the u. S. Said this. This was pretty sure we have a better sense of what happened this was individuals exceeding their authority and going beyond that and then beat these individuals made a tremendous mistake in this mistake they will pay a price and their cases are not in the quote system saudi government vehemently denied any involvement from crown prince mohammad bill psalm on but new information from column a. Report definitely hasnt been the only reason for skepticism turkish president has specifically said the order came from the highest levels of the saudi kingdom because. The evidence that we have so far indicates that. It was slain in a vicious violent murder all those responsible from the highest level to the lowest level will be brought to justice and will give the punishment they deserve the incident was not a momentary result would rather of the result of a planned operation so far the saudi government has been tight lipped about what came later we know arrests were made and 11 suspects face trial back in january with 5 death penalties dished out but a new criminal investigation into the crown princes involvement could mean the 1st trial wont be the last. Month after sudans president was ousted by the countrys armed forces the african nation is now trying to find ways to resolve the resulting constitutional crisis president shares removal after decades in power led to a struggle between the military government and groups pushing for a return to civilian rule as well as internal efforts to resolve the impasse theres also help lining up from abroad the u. S. Is increasing its involvement 2 weeks after a major crackdown by the sudanese military on protesters washington is urging the Security Forces to and attacks on civilians and to investigate the recent violence washingtons appointed a new special envoy for sudan a veteran diplomat who on paper has a wealth of local knowledge and experience of the region 65 year old donald booth has not only served as u. S. Ambassador to liberia zambia and ethiopia but was also the obama administrations envoy to sudan and south sudan now hes back in the role because appointment is not being university welcomed the u. S. Based doll for women action has doubts with the region having suffered years of conflict including genocide and ethnic cleansing. Not only did booth want to normalize relations with the murderous regime he actively in the glick to those being murdered booth failed to put forth any statements regarding the atrocities committed we cannot trust him to speak up now internally displaced individuals who took to birth during his visits were quickly erast it without any prevailed by booth to grant them release all protection hes a boyband will once again silence those who have been suffering in darfur for 70. And dont both cant stand to work and caleb open has been taking a look at his track record. As the situation in south sudan continues to spiral the United States has appointed a new special envoy to save the day the department has appointed ambassador down on the eve booth as special envoy on sudan his appointment demonstrates that the United States has a Firm Commitment to the sudanese people and efforts to advance a peaceful political solution now the white house says that its his experience with south sudan that makes him qualified however it is long record with the country that is the source of all the outrage donald booth was the special envoy to both sudan and south sudan under the administration of barack obama from 2013 to 2017 under his watch the civil war and human rights abuses escalated. The thing. That. Breaks the angry sexual mutilation abductions and sexual slavery as well as killings that have become commonplace in south sudan there is no doubt that these crimes are persistent because impunity so entrenched that every kind of norm is broken now the role of donald booth in this mess hasnt exactly been good in 2011 the United Nations imposed an arms embargo on sudan however the United States didnt start abiding by it until 20163 years after the war was already in full swing despite what seemed like Strong International consensus favor going to bargo for several years the United States withheld support. An embargo was not put on the Un Security Council agenda donald booth seems like a pretty big fan of the us and israeli aligned regime of south sudan he actually worked to get them away her from the white house over their use of child soldiers and he seems a little bit partisan when it comes to internal strife in the country heres a statement he made about the ousting of the Vice President we do not believe it would be wise for him ashore to return to his previous position in juba so this is the man whose task it is to restore peace however if you look at his record he seems to have plenty of experience doing the opposite us never really carried out sincerely so sudanese didnt really care or could really follow policy from us because the us was begins to very survival become tree the mistake that was made by the United States and most a mistake made by the students go is you cannot ignore the suffering of people for during that whole period of. Us didnt lift a few tried to go the country even though before the break up with south sudan in 2000 where the Us Government did nothing but keep punishing the sudanese people you keep going here for sheer keep Foreign Policy that.

K. Rules on arms sales are being properly applied to saudi arabia. The u. K. Has continued to support saudi air strikes in yemen and provide arms at this point overwhelming evidence of repeated breaches of International Humanitarian law this is in clear violation of u.

K. s weapons deals with agreat. There is growing public discontent about the whole situation. To saudi arabia and to lesser extent to the us because of yemen and because of the human rights record inside saudi arabia itself and its significant that all of the opposition parties not just the labor party but also the liberal democrats on the scottish nationalists and other smaller parties agreed really that this is not something that britain. Ort to be supporting obviously there is a long historical. Good relations between britain and all of the arab states of the gulf region but when its a moral issue such as this at stake the British Public is increasingly very uncomfortable about what is happening. The shortlist to become britains next Prime Minister has now been cut down to 4 candidates jonathan is leading the pack ahead of thursdays vote which will decide the final 2 artes poly said he is still in the race but contest is hot enough and the field has been whittled down one on the bombshell remains the front runner and these are the politicians whos made it through to the next round at the conservative partys game of knock out a video game series still no you really think im going to get to play taishan so there is no the end of the quest for a new leader has got the country poring over the contestants of dirty laundry. Gordon brown as Prime Minister would be utterly rageous not just because theres a limit on popping into fearing tax and complicated of life but mainly because hes a scot and government by a scot is just not conceivable in the current constitutional context.

Im so sorry jeremy hunt of never saw that before in my life its usually men who so thats why i really really want to apologize im sorry can you guess which politician took which drug in their preponderate ix days michael gove was a front runner but his campaign was marred after he was forced to admit he dabbled with cocaine in the 19000000 tees it was a it was a mistake deeply regret it should you have gone to prison. I was fortunate in that i didnt with all this dirt on youd expect those competing for a chance to move in the here in a couple of weeks time to engage in some good Old Fashioned political mudslinging but at this stage of the contest Boris Johnson is so far ahead that the other conservative candidates appeared to have come down with a case of lightness perhaps looking into the future and vying for top positions in an all but inevitable Boris Johnson cabinet.
