Who are representing his interests. And residents in northeastern france accuse their neighbors of illegally dumping tons of garbage across the border. Are broadcasting live coverage from our studios in moscow recapping the weeks top stories with our Weekly Program this is our internet. Right now for employees of russias Sputnik News Agency in turkey have been released after questioning the editor in chief along with 3 others were detained in and istanbul on saturday this follows nationalists trying to break into the homes of 3 sputnik employees and we spoke to jordan f who is the head of the Sputnik Turkey Office and he stumble. A group of about 20 people came directly to each of our. Employees had their residential addresses they shouted threats and accusations against them after our colleagues went to the play station to report the incident we could not then reach them for many hours however according to the place their phones had not been taken from them right now we want to know how this crowd of nationalists found out the addresses of all our employees their names and names and the story did not end there today a group of Police Officers arrived at a is down below office as well as to the editor in chief of sputnik turkey now the police are making copies very employees hard drives as i understand it our article on the turkish province of has served as the basis for the searches in the recent events i want to say that we will now take measures to maximize the securities of the employees working in our office are to taylor has been across the story for us and she spoke earlier with my colleague neil harvey. Because he has been grabbing headlines in recent days youve seen this picture of migrants flooding across its border but this is another story from there thats been slightly overlooked so you 3 journalists who work for russia sputniks news agency in ankara have been released now off to several hours in Police Custody and thats because off to questioning no reason was found to hold them for i originally they actually went to the peace of their own free will because they wanted to file a complaint about an alleged attack that theyd been victims to in that own homes on saturday and after that nothing was heard from them until now of course which understandably sparked a concern from. All of the turkish authorities to intervene provide safety to the Russian Media and ensure that all circumstances are clarified its also said that the editor in chief of the Istanbul Bureau was also detained by police and what some are calling a flagrant violation of Media Freedom its now being confirmed that he too has been released and that happened is also thought to have searched the offices of the bureau you mentioned of the attacks in the homes of the euro zones sinister what details do we know about those well its alleged that they were not spontaneous attacks but rather a coordinated affair and that they were instigated by turkish nationalists there are some reports saying that these nationalists gathered outside the private homes of these 3 journalists some of them even allegedly broke into them and they were chanting nationalist slogans and they also according to some stories versions they allegedly accuse these employees of betraying that country because they walk for the russian news outlet but why would that be such a still at sea towards these 3 wall unfortunate some in turkey are blaming russia for the deaths of dozens of tucker soldiers and in a syrian recently thats despite the fact. That i quest come out of i clearly said that we know that the russian ethels was in no way fault its also worth mentioning lets quickly listen to another motive that was suggested i condemned last nights threats an attempted attack against 3 turkey based sputnik journalists outside their homes in ankara also concerned that they were reportedly detained today over an article by ozy authorities to ensure the safety of foreign correspondents. Now the article in question is one in which 909 disputed referendum in the now tucker province of a tie is discussed with some suggestion that potentially it was waged by the tux but i do want to say that that has not been confirmed or stop just as a motive for these attacks but it is briefly was just saying that this is unfortunate not the 1st time that sputnik has faced problems in a touch 2016 for example the news website was temporarily blocked by the countrys Telecom Regulator as this latest turn of events would of course be keeping an eye on it and see how it all plays out well turkeys not a model country regarding the treatment of its own journalists thousands have been thrown in jail. Others dozens remained in exile because they know that they too will be imprisoned if they do go back so the fact that they also do it to foreign media is not surprising the reason Vienna Convention regarding the attitude towards diplomats and most countries respect. And borders and better goes about for journalists. Not so clear and reporters are usually working democracy of the host governments and if the media cannot operate just because their country of origin is no. Friction with the other country thats very wary some and perhaps turkey has something to hide. Athens is deploying extra soldiers to its border with turkey in a bid to prevent refugees from crossing into greece that is as thousands continue to mass on the frontier tensions have escalated over the weekend with clashes erupting between police and migrants following turkeys decision on saturday to open its doors to your. Fellow. 0 7. Those of. You whove been arrested in the. In my mind this is me go away during one country. Turkey has seen a growing sea of migrants crossing its borders after entrees decision to step up its intervention in the northern part of syria despite a deal reached with the e. U. In 2016 turkey now says it will no longer restrain hundreds of thousands of Asylum Seekers on its territory from reaching the e. U. Meanwhile greece says it has blocked some 10000. 00 migrants from illegally crossing its border but thousands more remain massed along at the greek government has accused turkey of using the migrant surge to pressure europe over the syrian conflict and a spokesperson for athens called the development a threat to the National Security of the country the escalating situation now poses the toughest test for greece since the 2015 financial crisis and. Released. Believes the refugee problem will not end as long as fighting continues in syria. Were earlier than once went to the turkish authorities want some cover for they operate sions immediately they want europe to become a stakeholder forth their operation in europe say apparently that they want to make sure that no more refugees would cross the border between syria and turkey and that in a sense just defies for them arming the likes of us in a strong. Against the syrian army profile and getting the problem rather than solving the problem because the only way this problem is going to be solved by sea rather storing its you know territorial integrity and people going back to their homes as long as there is fighting and there will always be fighting as long as there is a bit of syrian land outside Syrian Government control as long as there is fighting there will always be refugees. The 1st phase of joining us im sure is u. S. Extradition case wrapped up this week the decision on whether he will be handed over or not will be reached in may when for their hearings are scheduled the prosecution argued that knowingly put hundreds of lives at risk when he published troves of classified u. S. Military files that redacted names and other Sensitive Information washington claims that following those leaks in 2010 sources disappeared in iraq afghanistan and iran but he leaks founder is also accused of encouraging the whistleblower and Army Intelligence analyst to Chelsea Manning to hack the pentagons Computer Network a songes defense team has sought however to counter those allegations buttressing their case with previously undisclosed information they claim the publisher actually warned of then secretary of state Hillary Clinton about the leaks so as to ensure the safety of the individuals whose names appeared in the documents they have also stressed that assad has activities are protected by the principles of press freedom and his lawyers are strongly reject. Did the assertion that he encouraged manning to hack the pentagon for the more they say extradition would undermine their Clients Health and during the hearing a songe was held in a glass cage he was also prevented from talking to his lawyers we heard from one of them. A songe was in a grave condition before court but during the extradition proceedings it got even worse he was being held in a see through a room without any access to his lawyers while he was being delivered to this room he was handcuffed 11 times he underwent a full body search twice and went through 5 different rooms before he finally entered the court moreover a songe couldnt take part in the Court Process he was deprived of any kind of interaction with his lawyers but he tried to reach out to be by passing a piece of paper through a gap in the glass box he was being held in and he was told off by the guard because of that i mean this is inconceivable how can a person be in Court Without being able to interact or communicate with his lawyers who are representing his interests. Throughout the week Julian Assange has supporters have been protesting outside the court claiming the case is a test of fundamental press freedoms and called on london and washington not to shoot the messenger the pentagon the new admitted. In chose the many straw the body had. The release why arent we discussing the harm that was released there was revealed by the releases of which is in 20102011 why arent we here talking in court about the war crimes yes as a nation of innocent civilians by the military the slaughtering of reuters journalists. That is why we should be talking about in a courtroom in this country and in america you know you say what why is everybody here today theyre here because they dont believe mainstream narrative. Broadcaster and former british m. P. George galloway about concerns surrounding the freedom of press. Dylan our sons is a friend of mine and thats not the Julian Assange sees sitting in the courtroom this man is mentally and physically shrunken and how could it be otherwise after a whole decade of this cruel and unusual punishment who will volunteer to be the next julian our son who will receive evidence which checks out as being true of high crimes and misdemeanors by the Us Government or any government for that matter including our own and then report it to the public there will be had there would have to be either foolhardy or extremely brave because if they did so theyre on a very high risk of ending up in a bullet proof box in Woolwich Crown for facing extradition and the rest of your life in prison in the United States trust me that wont have a Chilling Effect on free journalism in the world it will have a killing effect. Towns in northeastern france accusing their belgian neighbors of illegally dumping trash across the border that story and much more after the short break youre watching the weekly r g international. Join me every thursday on the alec simon show and ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports im show business ill see you then. Welcome back to the weekly here on r. T. International tons of garbage from belgium is being illegally dumped across the border into france and of the mountains of trash have left locals fearing for their health archies show dubinsky picks up the story for us. This may look like part of a landfill site but its not all of this waste has been dumped here illegally were just a few miles from the border with belgium and luxembourg and the french town of all core mu 9 is one of many struggling to cope with what you can see mountains and to mountains of garbage that have appeared since october in nearby red its a similar story trash both household and commercial has been dumped under the cover of darkness city. At 1st we thought it was regular waste but it turns out people are illegally dumping their washing machines shitty their froman everything their wages. Yes but here we see its far more serious we estimate around 200 tons of waste its enormous as far as the pollution we dont know whats inside it could be tons of who knows what type of products chemicals. We dont know we see cleaning products plastics but more could be hidden it didnt take long before calls track down where the waste was coming from but if we did look at who the trench piles and piles of it it all had signs of being from the same place we searched and found out it was from pond turnt up. And if so heres an invoice is it and. Then you know it says. So there. When the company was contacted it denied any knowledge of illegal waste dumping but the local resident jessica told me that since that statement the fly tipping has continued its been described as dumping on an industrial scale and you can see why back in the local Fishermans Association is also concerned. On the water source or close to this pollution so there could be a problem because it could affect our pond this is the 21st century there are designated places to put waste like this its an acceptable people are doing this and regulate the Mayors Office says the cost of cleaning this up is beyond its means no and if you know so on a financial level for us this is impossible to solve we have a Small Community of 1000. 00 people it would cost the equivalent of the whole annual budget to get rid of this. A criminal investigation into this problem with cross border dumping has we know you print and customs agents have stepped up their patrols now in 2017 they reported 7 metric tons of waste like this was illegally trafficked into france in 2018 that shot up to 130000000 metric tons now although there are no figures yet available for 29000 it is clear that this issue is escalating the communities here are fed up of being a dumping ground for of the peoples waste they want more regulation and are calling on the e. U. To step in to solve a problem that some believe europes open borders are helping to facilitate. Charlotte. R. T. Germany has lifted a ban on the commercial practice of euthanasia but critics fear the right to die will now be exploited for profit artes are all over takes a look. Almost 5 years after it was banned the highest court in germany has ruled that blocking assisted suicide is unconstitutional and making its ruling on wednesday the Constitutional Court in culture is said everyone has a right to live and a right to die article 217 of the german criminal code outlawed euthanasia as well as the advertising of the services what this ruling from the Constitutional Court means is that thats being overturned and not only could Companies Offer euthanasia but that advertising for the day could also stop being seeing the thinking behind wednesdays court ruling is that this will allow those in extreme paying and suffering from terminal illnesses to end their lives on their terms however senior voices within Palliative Care are warning that this could perhaps only to the normalization and indeed the commodification of suicide in society now the facilitation of suicide for the sick and tired of life is turning into a normal Service Anyone who allows you to nature will sooner or later make it compulsory to die especially in the society is economize designers knowledge of experience across all other countries shows that supply creates demand immediately following the ruling politicians are asking what situations this will be allowed in also what the commercial implications will be for companies wanting to get involved in the euthanasia business i want clear rules about when medical assistance in particular is allowed and when commercial offerings are excluded it is perfectly normal for people who have a terminal diagnosis. To feel suicide in fact some of the studies show that over 80 percent go through a period of depression with some suicidal thoughts and so what we should be doing is trying to find ways to assist those people in getting through that period and actually living their lives rather than promoting assisted suicide newton a. Z. s services so we would be extremely worried about any commercialization all round of the process or indeed promotion that would lead to many fine report people feeling that their lives were not worth living and actually ending them prematurely highest people here in berlin what their thoughts d are on the ruling or whether this is right for germany its not a commercial thing dying it its something that needs care security she needs. Yet professionalism i think there are certain things that you cannot put to sail to people like its not a business you pay for yes i know want to commit suicide but im suffering i want to end my life you cannot do that to pay for it seems to me there was very bad incentives there if for example that advertising was actually targets people who were already having a hard time it could lead to people considering suicide more strongly i dont disagree with their physician assisted suicide just because like there are certain aspects that are beneficial for it but in terms of the advertising i could go either way like a really it depends on who is in control of that promoting this kind of fings for me is that a progress currently within a year of belgium the netherlands looks a book and switzerland all allow assisted dying but with germany said to joy in the concerns are about what is one of the most sensitive subjects could be set to become a Business Opportunity peter all of. 4 years after they lost the white house to donald trump the democrats are still paranoid about russian collusion and even suspect their own Bernie Sanders is now being targeted by the kremlin arties donald quarter takes a closer look. Good news comrades our agent Bernie Sanders is doing better than we expected in the primaries are planned to have 2 agents fight over the presidency Operation Hammer and sickle is a go but we have one problem some in the Democratic Party establishment are becoming savvy to our strategy Vladimir Putin thinks donald trump should be president of the United States and thats why russia is helping Bernie Sanders get elected so hell lose to trump it doesnt help that just last week western media published information about our top secret operation exposing the connection between agents tromp and sanders with our center in moscow as you learned tonight and today and yesterday the day before is going to have were going to war help coming from learn to be prudent. For Health Provider to do want somebody who didnt think can be from at least age and trump was able to follow orders i admit nothing deny everything and make counter accusations it was highly exaggerated. And frankly i think its disgraceful and i think it was a leak from the Intelligence Committee our house version and i think that they leaked it i think probably shipley good agent sanders on the other hand really dropped the ball he panicked and that is the ugliest thing theyre doing is they are trying to cause chaos the trying to cause a truth in america its an ugly business and all of us have got to say sorry youre not going to do this in the selection and again is present in the United States. You will not interfere in our elections the order was to deny sanders deny but he broke under pressure blowing the cover of our moscow back to bernie bros i design these people they are not part of our movement all of us remember 2016 and what we meant what we remember is efforts by russians and others to try to interfere in our election and divide us up. Im not saying thats happening but it would not shock me the center has good reason to believe agent sanders has been compromised were losing control over his actions and hes praising our strategic allies too openly you know when fidel castro came into office you know what he did he had a Massive Literacy Program its not a bad think its only a matter of time before they discover the interview agent sanders gave to profit i mean r t what effect do you think you can have on your voters it was so close here in iowa well i just hope that people take a hard look at the real issues impacting their lives to make matters worse we may have a mole in our midst how else could the footage have been leaked remember when the comrades recruited sanders at the new years party of 1908 bernie spent his honeymoon and then in soviet russia i mean i think youre going to go back and forth about whos more in the tank with russia its a really hard one between barney and drop we have made too many tactical blunders as it is and western pundits are already undergoing a campaign to discredit our agent obviously we know the russians are continuing to try to choose our next president like they chose our last president the russians dont want me to be the nominee to spend a lot of money on bots on facebook and theyve been taken down say biden is a bad guy they dont want biden rule in politics pick your opponent and putin and trump are picking their opponent to happiest person right now its about one in moscow time this thing is going very well for blatter we have to promise you. Probably stay up watching us right now how you doing by our rivals already know too much comrade commissar i think its time to extract our agents for 27 here in moscow i will be back at the top there with another look at the weekly this is our 2 international. The world is driven by a dream shaped by. The day. Saints. We dare to ask. For your rocky is now the only should we have that i had a much better 17 years could we could have had a much more prosperous iraq a stable iraq yes i was there. Mistakes happen absolutely could the americans have made things better by far they could have done they should have made it better but that does not take away from the flag they have stood up to around the dictator who was blood thirsty and he participated in the muslim killing of hundreds of thousands of iraqis are millions and more of the around then the invasion of kuwait and saudi. Time after time corporations repeat the same mantra sustainability its very important its accelerating the transition to sustainable transport sustainability stay in her manner more equitable and sustainable well. They claim their production is completely harmless. Its a complex number. It. Companies want us to feel good about buying their products while the damage is being done far away and this is Something Else this must be done to anyone and i mean look.
