Just after 8 am in mexico city 11 pm and so on 5 in the afternoon here and go this way and stay december 4th welcome to our international. We begin with a. Breaking news from berlin where germany has announced its may 2 Russian Embassy employees persona non grata in connection to the murder of a Georgian National back in august russia has denied any state link and has called the expulsion on cheated or even number of correspondence joining me nikki are in is in the studio here in moscow but 1st lets cross to berlin where given a slow sips us it is standing by to give us more information particularly on what were learning about whats occurred here we know of a slow 2 Embassy Workers expelled what war. Yeah as of now what we know is the as you mentioned that 2 Embassy Workers are expelled from berlin following the case of the Georgia National that was murdered back in august this year ever since this happened russia and moscow denied any connection in say the case but earlier today what the prosecutor said is that they had sufficient evidence that the mans murder in august was either tied to the russian state order or tied to the russians they or delivered by chechnya the federal Foreign Office today declared to employees of the Russian Embassy in berlin to be persona nongrata with this step of the federal government reacts to the fact that the russian authorities despite repeated high ranking and in fact requests did not sufficiently participate in the investigation of the murder of 2 an a k k in berlin zoo there are sufficient real indications that the killing is either on commission or done by state agencies of the Russian Federation or such of the autonomous chechen republic as part of the Russian Federation. But such a decision taken by the German Authorities are triggered a reaction from russia from moscow as are all of the kremlin calling berlins this isnt groundless this is absolutely groundless speculation this topic is being somehow whipped up by german media but it does not mean it this is how things are. But its not only that moscow and the kremlin taking a stance on this but also german politicians themselves a german politicians and member of the freedom credit party their graph spoke to the news agency a. F. P. Saying that even though the investigation is still running 2 workers from the Russian Embassy were expelled and is calling out for more information to be clear saying that the what the providers so far is not making the case clear but this comes theys after a joint media outlet to miss the geisha and by the spiegel the insider and billing which is believed to have ties to western Goods Services and has taken part in 2 major cases such as the script all case and in the m h i mean scene one but just that go back a little bit to the murder into thin in august of this year once it happened the german media jumped all over it and another media not only german but jumped all over it claiming and pointing fingers at moscow pretty much every headline had russia russia russia and even going as far as calling this case 2. 00 it is also interesting to go to point to point out here that next week in france the president of Russia Vladimir Putin the german chancellor Angela Merkel will be meeting in the normandy summit and well see whether this case and decisions of the German Government will affect or have any impact in the talks but what we know so far is that the 2 russian employees have been expelled from the scene with more information will bring more information with the with the hours coming by or the days thanks a bunch of breaking done what we know from berlin. Joins me as well in this shooter here. It was mentioned there of course this is all coming about because of an instant the deadly incident what more do we know about. The victim from barton when this occurred 40 year on from him. He was killed in what was described as an execution style killing he was shot twice in the head and this is a murder case that quickly became highly politicized in the media with headlines pointing the finger at russia drawing comparisons to describe things in the u. K. Calling it the script pal 2. 0 in fact the media were less interested however in delving into the history of the victim which makes quite an interesting read his c. V. Is quite it shows quite a checkered history lets say hes an ethnic chechen georgian citizen he was an islamist a former soldier he fought against russia in the 2nd chechen war he has connections to some very high profile terrorists many of the 5 to see fought alongside went on to move to syria and join Islamist Groups there and he sought asylum in germany in 2015 that was after a failed assassination attempt was that the 1st time someone tried to kill him. He was actually on a terror watch list for quite some time here he was described as a person who potentially posed a threat to the Public Safety he was taken off that terror list only last year in germany those purposeless ones right in 28 he was removed from that list now needless to say is passed however interesting have a check it may be does not justify his killing in the perpetrated must be brought to justice but perhaps to give a fuller picture its worth highlighting that this guy was not joe bloggs you know he was not your average everyday guy he was a man with connections to some very questionable individuals with some very extreme ideological tendencies. Nichiren bring this up its on the victim in this story lets get a little bit further into todays development were joined live on the program happy to say by journalist thomas foss thomas good to see you again how do you see this case playing out what would this substantial evidence of oficial another perhaps is the key word is not the official russian or chechen indeed involvement. Well the going to mention ing of squid bar lords already indicates that. There is a discussion as to and i think this is the main point not everybody talking and nobody talks about but which will be discussed in the corridors of the german ministries and other places to what extent because there is a parallel between st paul and this and the berlin case to what extent does the kremlin do with the russian authorities really have their. Security apparatus under control because you remember that one of the more realistically sounding versions of the script case is that some parts some factions of the Russian Security services may have gone into your operation on their own account and already the mentioning of possible chechen involvement as part of the of official explanation to date indicates that yes germany a knowledge is that there may be not just a clear direction to the lubyanka headquarter in moscow but the fact that of course Security Services from underneath the National Point of view or d have to report or the Russian Security services or the German Government is bound to take the take more responsible even if they themselves may believe that things in fact are a bit more different differentiate and complicated yet the question that leads to is where that evidence perhaps came from because we know thomas that just days after belling cat released the report on the murder the case was passed on to German Federal prosecutors is not a coincidence our German Authorities are lying perhaps on investigations by selfstyled citizen journalists here well thats a question which goes boat goes various ways on the one side yes. It was a n. G. N. G. O. Investigators with maybe dubious background and dubious financing and they got a lot of of evidence and we dont see this only in this case as in many others governments have started to rely on their word because for some reasons at least to the out of the out what side they are being more quicker more efficient and then others the question also is. What does this what does the investigation by belling say about the security of russian state data because a lot points top to the fact that here are barely get all the inside all others have access to a secret Russian Administration data like passport data are life like cetera. Somebody must i should ask the question who come they dig in in this sort of information that the other side is to what really to what extent is this information reliable im sure that we as a media uses consumers do not get the full picture of what our governments have you know in the us theres a question over verification of course as you say how damaging do you think this could be for relations between germany and russia which at the moment are quite tranquil theyve been going on quite well we also know avlon amir put one glimmer on their set to meet in less than a week at a summit in normandy do you see this case affecting their meeting and the overall picture indeed id say that the relations between the governments have officially gone so bad they they wont be much worse but that is the official site Everybody Knows that we have to keep keep our faces with the fact that we are on different sides of the jews to teach rivalry and the other on the other hand theres a lot of day to day. Business that has to be resolved part of it is north stream too and of course both sides id say have got to have gotten used to that officially you put up the earnest face of even enmity distrust. And behind closed doors you get along and do your business. Very interesting of you on the program thank set today journalist Thomas Fassbender at speaking to us from in germany. Ok lets say more world news this hour the trump and pitchman saga has stepped up a gear in washington with the u. S. Heise Intelligence Committee to levering what some are calling a damning report a plane without the american president abused his office for personal gain arties killam open has been examining the document in more detail. Well the report from the house Intelligence Committee democrats essentially alleges 2 things about donald trump 1st it alleges that he conditioned military aid to ukraine on an announcement that would have been beneficial to his Reelection Campaign and secondly it alleges that he obstructed the house of representatives impeachment inquiry investigation now adam schiff representing democrats came forward and painted a pretty grim pricks here donald trump and his activities this is adam schiff this report chronicles a scheme by the president id states to coerce an ally ukraine that is at war with an adversary russia into doing the pleasure of the president s political dirty work and he was willing to sacrifice the National Security of the United States by withholding military aid and diplomatic recognition in the form of that white house meeting in order to get what he wanted now before departing the country on monday donald trump dismissed the allegations that were expected to be leveled in this report this is what donald trump said prior to leaving the country before the report was released by the radical. Democrats decide what im going to set up a year ago that what im going to that was. One of the most important. For them to be doing. Putting the feet of the table which. I grew up with in a recent interview the you. Any and leaders alinsky also dismissed these allegations about President Trump behavior and interactions with him look i never talked to the president from the position of a quid pro quo thats not my thing i dont want us to look like bagus now many witnesses testified during the impeachment inquiry hearings but observers wondered if they really made a strong case that donald trump had been inappropriate in his dealings with ukraine this is some of the testimony that was heard there was no mention of withholding aid on the call correct thats correct and there was no quid pro quo correct correct was there any reference to withholding aid you know there was not any reference to bribery no there was not any reference or quid pro quo no there was none you have any information regarding any criminal activity that the president of the United States has been involved with at all. Now before this report was released on monday we had a report from the republicans that was released it was 123 pages long and it defended the actions of u. S. President donald trump saying that his dealings with ukraine had not been inappropriate and had not violated the law fact that donald trump is out of the country celebrating the 70th anniversary of nato the North Atlantic Treaty Organization that many have pointed to the timing of the report as being somewhat suspicious however while some are looking at the report and saying it shows very very damning evidence against donald trump others are looking at the report and saying its simply a rehash of long discredited allegations different views from different sides of the political spectrum here in the United States. From the u. S. To the u. K. With the government there is facing must of Buck Showalter the release of a heavily redacted report on the front king industry british authorities never intended to see the light of day but greenpeace won the lengthy legal battle with the government under the freedom of information out of the 48 pages through. 7 were talking blood and what remains of the want secret documents shows a concerted plan to develop a positive image for the controversial gas Extraction Method amongst the general public. The conservatives have taken money from Oil Executives dress the rights of communities and enabled frightening companies to threaten their local environment the fact they have tried to cover the sub by rejecting pages of critical information for the illustrates this governments contempt for the public this is the conservatives idea of being open about the failed franken experiment forced to release their report theyve heavily censored it these heavily redacted government reports shows reference to secret plans to run a processional complain used by the weight of Scientific Evidence and strength of Public Opinion against frack and i dread to think what we havent been allowed to see. Been delving further into the fight against fracking in the u k. They high tech god knows what sticking out of the grounds that earns some people cash and literally shakes other peoples homes those other people for years have been teaming up with green activists to win a war against fracking in britain. Thats the area so believable if you can believe. In finally last month came the victory at least for the timing the controversial method of shale gas extraction was banned in the u. K. Under the Prime Minister who once called it glorious news for humanity and now that it seems there is no more need to come out and protest the Cabinet Office has at last released a secret report on the fracking industry despite these lines on the paper no parts of this report is appendices is to be released under the freedom of information act so you want to read something that the activists were trying to get a glance at for almost 2 years theres a little problem heres what it looks like from the 48 pages seen by the guardian 37 are entirely blacked out and only one the very front is left uncensored so if youre still keen to get to know about the skeletons in the industrys closet good luck why would so much stuff remain hidden looking at this black wall of redacted pages people will be wondering why theres so little the government is willing to reveal about fracking and so much it wants to hide if ministers have really dropped their support for this polluting industry why not publish this report in full and come clean about whats been going on behind closed doors. For years still though theres enough to scratch your heads over after reading the uncensored bits in there heres a gist of a few ideas there are issues with the fracking industries progress the main one is public opposition to fracking it needs to be dealt with the government should develop a pro shale narrative and spread the word the department for energy and Climate Change is already undertaken crucial work on communications to increase public except ability of shale for example creation of objective information Material Development of pro Show National and regional narrative show champions and among other useful moves that whitehall needs to take is finding ways to speed up planning in response to operators concerns which is also sometimes an obstacle planning times need to be shortened and process needs to be predictable which all makes you wonder why would the guys in charge ban fracking at all in such a document there are always going to be sensitive parts that are embarrassing to the government that are sensitive that could harm you know the industry potentially in the future or that could show the government being too cooperative with industry that might show motives. That are the public would not see in a good light its to protect their their image and to protect their ability to move forward and continue to do what they think they need to do for the nation which is different from what they tell the public of course because they tell the public whatever narrative suits them in terms of getting elected and so on but typically its for domestic political reasons that you would ban it theres no other reason that i can think of depending on how things develop geopolitically there might be a big impetus to develop u. K. Shale and in which case theyll want to do. As quickly as possible. Dating up such as tinder and others owned by the company much group are not protecting their users from sex offenders on their platforms a new investigation claimed the probe it took a look at more than 150 incidents of Sexual Assault over the past decade it fun up the majority of victims were women who met their attackers through much in 10 percent of cases they were purged with men who had already been accused or convicted of sex crimes much group which owns over 40 of the most popular up say they do conduct background checks on their members but only for pay to cards for them or the Company Claims that they do not agree with the investigations findings. The implication that we nor bob such offenders on our side and dont fight to keep them off is as outrageous as it is falls and stick knowledge evolves we will continue to aggressively deploy new tools to eradicate bad actors including users of our Free Products where we are not able to obtain sufficient and reliable information to make meaningful bank ground checks possible chadwick a spectator magazine journalist Reece Everson womens rights advocate gave us their thoughts on dating platforms on their screening policies. The match group is a 1000000000. 00 company there is no reason why they couldnt allocate just a small portion of their revenue to screen the people on their ab just so that there is just a smaller since of increased safety its a precaution its a measure but its deserved if they appear if theyre suddenly saying that we want in order to join the service we want to perform background checks on everyone who joins 1st of all that would kill the business and they know it theres a moral responsibility on these companies that are making billions of dollars 1700000000 dollars from women looking for love to say oh you know what its too expensive for us to do a little bit to protect you nobodys going to want to join these apps with these kind of if theyre doing that theyre being this invasive about background checks with that said people maybe shouldnt be on them especially women and not only are these dangerous for women but its destroying women so just get off the dating apps if you dont perform your own background checks in your own time with your own money get off were not going to restrict women from using the internet because there are predators we do desire for these companies to at least take the step into the right direction why do you want to put that kind of power on these monolithic Tech Companies and up saying you know ban women from dating apps im simply saying you shouldnt rely on this and you cant trust these companies to tell you whos good and whos bad you need to take that into your own hands so if you meet someone do a background check before you did for you go out on a date if they work in tandem with the courts to get the names at least of the 1st and last names in the location of where these people are and perhaps create some type of monitor of their internet thats a step in the right direction its going to be a mess i think no matter what and theres always going to be people who perhaps squeak through or dont get picked up who then commit assaults and crimes get a gun ladies. Protect yourselves and we dont live and by the way these incidences are obviously extremely rare and you know by and large the vast majority of men are not sexual predators one woman is enough we need the companies to take a moral stance or at least have some sort of responsibility to protect the women that utilize their app and then what happens you know its its never going to be a perfect system we are crossing in moments to london to join us in once more hes standing by with another going underground episode hot off the presses close. All the yes and the euro and the dollar they all refer to each other and theyre all going deeper and deeper into debt so theres no basic there or there theres no so theres no way to measure the dead against something that is could be considered money remember j. P. Morgan said only gold is money Everything Else is credit or debt ok so without that there is no way to measure that debt and theres no at the moment you know my my view is that this is leading to a neo feudalism or you have just a few private equity firms owing 98 percent of all the assets of everyone elses living as serfs on that were getting back to the dark ages. In this community there are people who believe that its ok. Its really hard there are no jobs and you see that ive got kids that ask and as a parent.
