His vital voting day mostly at the expense of progressive Bernie Sanders who supporters say the Party Establishment ganging up to get rid of him. And coping with coronavirus quarantine arties more advanced describes his 2 weeks in self isolation at home in russia on a trip to hong kong. I thought would be like good. As. It is a. Very warm welcome to you youre watching r. T. International with me thank you aaron our top story this hour what was supposed to be moved towards peace between the u. S. And the taliban appears to be unraveling this wednesday washington has conducted an hour strike against the Islamist Group in Afghanistans Helmand province reports emerge of a series of deadly taliban attacks overnight which killed more than 20 Afghan Soldiers and Police Officers arties maria for national is across the developments. A historic peace deal we heard that will pave the way to peace and prosperity in afghanistan we heard it took 19 years to come to this point and of course needless to say the world expected a lot plus just hours before donald trump was on a phone call with the talibans leader and the groups chief negotiator but i got a 35 minute conversation and here i can agree of truly historic moment a direct contact between a u. S. Leader and his senior taliban official here is donald trump talking about. We had a very good conversation with the leader of the taliban today. Theyre looking to get this and were looking to get into that we had a good long conversation today and. They want to seize the violence and now we see the u. S. Responding with an airstrike that they present as a move of selfdefense on clear their why since the taliban never attacked the americans set of these agreement include they withdraw all of u. S. Troops and its nato allies from afghanistan there are still 12000 around 12000 soldiers and officers stationed in afghanistan and that is seen as a positive move move by so many as a trust Building Measure as they said the taliban was promised to see 5000 common Political Prisoners released promised by who by washington so what basically happened is that washington promised something it cannot guarantee and plus it has 0 authority to do the result if get a government does not seem to agree. There is no commitment to release 5000 prisoners i have shared this with dr kellys work this is the right and the decision of the people of afghanistan they have requested it it could be included in the agenda of the interim afghan talks but it cannot be a prerequisite for talks. It sounds like a person for a pair. Well reality no another world and you have to remember that there ghana crisis is a very complex one there are many sides involved and what is desperately needed for peace and prosperity is to see all these parties involved on the same page and this is by the way something that moscow has been trying to do so many times bringing all these parties including the government the taliban to more sco to seat and talk and discuss you know the agreement so most group also was very happy to see this you know finally historic peace deal and dont trump was not the only one these days deal was praised as a victorious one this is really. A way in europe and relations to proceed so they are really a comprehensive these are the this is the need for peace on the ground. So what we can see is that the situation on the ground in afghanistan is get more more dramatic its a skill late in the violence is escalating and if this is a victory i dont know what a defeat should look like. Middle east expert on journalist alley risk thinks the Afghan Government might leverage the attacks to its advantage but i think it is very home to my neck and i think to the final recall if you will. When it comes to do making a president ial choice to party. Well actually i think that he has attempted to make or not just might be that there are divisions within the taliban. Who are against this agreement. With. Any possible progress which could have big names up until now but before on america with the taliban extruding are going to go up and down there very much and to be up now to go to so i think that we are learning now a little hole should take the opportunity to. All of that can be trusted to. Also you have many government. Is maybe to play a role in the art that it produces rather be a china believes iran because the American Administration has proven that it. Would be huge oil in any progress in the situation of. A growing migrant standoff between greece and turkey has seen top ranking e. U. Officials visit the border brussels is pledging to deploy Additional Forces and provide millions of euro in aid to athens praising it for being europes shield the visit comes a few days after turkey lifted border restrictions which had been preventing a massive migrant influx to europe tens of thousands have been trying for days to get across arties bensky drove along the border to see the desperation of those that stuck in the path. Come further down south we still own the greek so i did the border with turkey where newtown called fairies and i just want you to get a sense of the action thats happening all around us were just outside the town hall the local Mayors Office and it looks like people are gathering here in the anticipation of going to war to the Turkish Border and forming some kind of human chain tonight to ensure that there are no illegal crossings from turkey we know that since saturday more than 24000 people have attempted to cross the border but were hoping to speak to the local mag to find out how he in his town are going to deal with it. So we didnt get to speak to them he wasnt hit but we did get to speak to many of the people who were taking part in that they sachin and they all seemed to be pretty tense knew the mood was full of tension in fact one guy said to me you can feel it. Everybody is here tonight because we want to help greece protect its borders from any kind of illegal migration we see people from bangladesh afghanistan anywhere from places that have nothing to do with war and they come to our country essentially the e. U. We think europe should change its stance and contribute to send a strong message to turkey for you because the policies of previous years that allowed these people to enter our country without carrying any permits or documents was a very big mistake and created issues of inequality greece is not alone it is european country but europe should support it because until now greece has not been supported weve left the town to hold now were driving out towards the front here in the hope of getting a sense of whats going to happen along the border overnight to get a sense of what this human chain to protect the grave. Borders from anybody trying to cross illegally its going to be blind and so were just coming up to a checkpoint. Where theyre stopping us. We have to turn around ok so were being told we have to turn around we cant go any further. Not far out from faris we spoke the greek on me in what looks like Illegal Migrants on this side of the road. Weve had a chat with the offices they said we cant film but they have confirmed that they found the 2 Illegal Immigrants trying to cross the software we are in the script land behind and they told us that 2 individuals from afghanistan to receive an update from the volunteers who are not securing the greek food and the affair is a video showing the migrants camped out on the border. As we were trying to film. We were stopped this my cameraman being scooped it up by well like a military personnel to watch the border. So you just an update on that situation all thats been smooth but we have moved away from the border because we dont want to create more tension with the security personnel that are there but it gives you a sense of how much tension there is here given the fact that the volunteers are out willing to be in the middle of nowhere in the way to secure their borders the fact that we were told not to come anywhere near the. Order that the greek Prime Minister said this week that his country wouldnt be blackmailed by turkey he said that they would do Everything Possible to stop an invasion of migrants crossing the border illegally and that is exactly what we seeing in towns like this that ability for people to take up their own norms and to go to the borders to protect greece from anybody trying to cross challenged even steal r. T. In ferris. The super tuesday results are currently coming in of the Democratic Partys biggest test rebels who voters want as their u. S. President ial pick 14 states are deciding on the most significant one day barometer of where things are heading for the candidates all so far former Vice President joe biden has taken 9 states while progressives that are Bernie Sanders has topped the polls in 3 the biggest prize that is california which has the most delegates up for grabs voting still underway there with sanders currently leading before super tuesday got underway 2 contenders dropped out and courage in their supporters to now get behind joe biden. I am ending my campaign and endorsing joe biden in the im looking for a president who will draw out what is best in each of us and im encouraging everybody whos part of my complain to join me because we have found a leader in Vice President soon to be President Joe Biden march 3rd. 2020. I will be casting my ballot for joe biden in the a Common Thread throughout the scramble so far to get the democratic nomination is for the rivals to take aim at Bernie Tsongas kind of more can break down that im thanks to the campaign. Its been a long winter for the democrats theyve been feeling the cold burn oh you know we know you you live oh i was in the was there to hear your driver in the 43. Years with no one. In the butt now as the spring rolls in the party has descended into panic i think its a little late to stop for that i think does the problem the game it is pretty much over reading last night about the fall of france in the summer of 1940 and then general reno cause of churchill and says its over can either coronavirus or Bernie Sanders be stopped totally transform society with firing squads dungeons torture and exile so hes been pretty clear thats what he supports morning standards but stopping the burning machine is not an easy task after all most rank and file democrats more or less agree with his policies so heres how the operation has moved forward. The reds are coming trigger those cold war terrorists socialism is a threat to america. Can freedom see that hammer and sickle and be afraid be very very afraid i believe in the castro and in the reds had won the cold war there were the executions in central park and i might have been one of the ones getting executed and certain other people would be there cheering lets not forget that Bernie Sanders once praised cubas achievements in terms of literacy and health care were very opposed to be authoritarian they tour of cuba but you know its unfair to simply say everything goes but you know when fidel castro came into office you know what he did he had a Massive Literacy Program its not a bad thing after 4 years of looking on in horror as trump cozied up to dictators we need a president who will be extremely clear in standing against regimes that violate human rights abroad we cant risk nominating someone who doesnt recognize this fidel castro enough a dog and i can see it forced labor camps religious repression widespread poverty firing squads and the murder of thousands of his own people. Lets talk about his Literacy Program but most millennia old dont even remember the cold war communism doesnt really scare them and socialism certainly doesnt so time for plan b. Now Bernie Sanders is accused of splitting an already weak and fractured Democratic Party why we would risk this extraordinary opportunity by nominating somebody who has a tendency to divide their own side is beyond me furthermore sanders is accused of having views that just wont fly in a general election the face of the democratic policy might be spouting things thats absolutely nothing but you know voters but this narrative doesnt seem to work either. So now Bernie Sanders is accused of being a russian plot to undermine american democracy this claim is repeated by other president ial candidates as well as Robert Obrien the National Security advisor and his sources are named though these reports that the. They want Bernie Sanders to get elected president thats no surprise he honeymooned moscow and it turns out that in fact Bernie Sanders once even visited russia you know years ago back when it was called the soviet union yeah thats pretty old news scraping the barrel lets go on to plan d. Time to unite behind joe candidates are dropping out perhaps a bit prematurely and putting their Energy Behind joe biden does come up a little bit and i dont know whats happened barely i think theyre trying to take it away from i dont know if thats fair but i guess its politics when you get right down to it whats fair why throw in the towel so early well theyve got to do everything in their power to defeat Bernie Sanders in 2016 leaked emails revealed by wiki leaks show that the d. N. C. Went guns blazing to end his bid for the white house now will they be so lucky the 2nd time caleb mopp and archie new york you know neal earlier i spoke to new York City Council hopeful that money has lost that he thinks the Democratic Partys National Committee is their own it can to do songs this chances. Democrats everybody falls in line they line up so perfectly everybody drops. And you know throws their way to support biden so you know in that in that respect you sort of see how you know the democratic parties are coalescing and micromanaging every way that they can support. And you know i see it you know Bernie Sanders he said the system was rigged you can see how its being rigged against him former democratic chair donna brazil got into a Heated Exchange after a suggestion that the Democratic Convention would be rigged against theirs we can listen together to just what was said hello of our race i get a 2nd term and for people to use russian talking points to so division among americans that is stupid so rather go to hell that is completely absurd i mean this is the same donna brazil who would pass the questions to Hillary Clinton so hillary would have you know an unfair advantage in the debates against for instanter so i mean that this is completely absurd and its actually really really infuriating because what it is is you know its really the Democratic Party trying to cover their tracks and really not so well in the fact that theyre really working against you know Bernie Sanders who really essentially you know a real contender and possibly the front runner. As nation scramble to stem the spread of coronavirus and hit home the hygiene message here in russia there are 6 confirmed cases dozens are in quarantine and on the observation of Senior Correspondent has just completed 2 weeks of self isolation at home following a trip to hong kong he told us what the experience was like about the other measures russia is taking to keep infections at bay. One of the things you could do you realize as a bearded man is you just look silly in the face mask but this is my only should be near from hong kong my trip to hong kong and i was only there for a few days while i was there there were hardly any infections or in the weeks since but coming back to moscow the medics here really didnt care so youre treated like anyone else and our 1st taste of what was to come was still in the play when a lady came aboard and this is while we were still in the plane having landed she took all our measurements are temperatures and she was in full has mackin so we walked past passport control into the baggage area and that is where the real Party Started i mean there were dozens and dozens of medics in full hazmat get covered head to toe taking down everything about us what we did who we were with where we were this is all part of a huge russian effort to make sure that the 900 didnt gain a foothold here the monitoring of the epidemiological situation was organized from the initial days of this complex situation additional measures were taken to strengthen sanitary in quarantine control at checkpoints across the russian border 6 new cases of corona virus infections were recorded join the monitoring period in all cases a full range of necessary and see epidemic measures was organized which prevented the subsequent spread of the infection. When they 1st mentioned quarantine i thought would be like a mini vacation you get to sit at home and as it turns out it isnt at all so he had calls throughout the day starting in the morning for medics asking how youre feeling when there are any symptoms cough or whatever you also had visited by police and medics just to check up on you to make sure that you were still at home i mean eventually out of sheer boredom with the terms of the quarantine agreement that i signed at the airport and the penalties are pretty severe so for example if if you leave the house to go to the shop which you can then you just leave and nothing nothing happens well thats thats a fine potentially Community Service if you leave the house or apartment the Quarantine Zone and you infect someone adds up to a year in jail a year in jail if you infect someone and they go on to die that is up to 5 years in prison which is a pretty severe punishment. A lot of fear i would say panic would around the world and in russia as well which is which isnt being helped by the fact that theres a lot of misinformation misleading information d on the internet for example one russian sub Security Company for example is identified a message being repeated online that is spreading misinformation and there are people out there that are you know enjoying this. Lenna good evening i have some bad news there really want to save the people i care about i beg you to spread this information as much as possible if our thora g. s do not want to inform us about this well have to inform each other about this leaked information there are 20000 patients with corona virus in moscow walk with masks dont go to crowded places take care of each other and stock up on food unfortunately its sad that shops will be empty this information is more than reliable. The end of the day its just common sense dont follow advice that you read on the internet and read it for example followed by that you hear from doctors wash your hands regularly dont touch your face as a bit of personal advice that i can give you if youve got a trip lined up in the immediate future to a place where theres been that break dont go the korean team isnt worth it. We got the advice of molecular biologist professor ga zukin to ask if the levels of public anxiety are in step with the real risks dont panic is one thing but purpose is another but also panic is about not being able to control things but there are really little feelings each of us can do to minimize the risk to himself and the risk to others and we all hear about those things that one can do repeatedly so there is no reason to panic here there are actually things that can be done to the most important thing you need to do it does teach us 1st tree seen the contacts and what 1st actually test team having reliable tests that tell you whether the person is actually infected and then tracing his or her accomplice. Is exactly 2 years since former russian agents like a script pal of his daughter were poisoned in the english city of cells bri the u. K. Swiftly blamed russia for what it called an attempted assassination something most goes down u. S. Lee denies correspondent Southgate Terry looks at why there are still Unanswered Questions if freezing of already cool relations a flurry of accusations denials and diplomatic expulsions at times the events triggered by a poisoning in the medieval town of souls bree read more like a cold war thriller than a real life story 2 years on we are asked how much more do we now know. On the 4th of march 28th. And his daughter yulia were found slumped on a bench in a quiet town in southern england a week later than british Prime Minister theresa may came out with her take on the situation the government has concluded that it is highly likely that russia was responsible for the to. Do there. Since then despite the involvement of 250 counterterrorism officers 180 military personnel and to report the highly likely has not been upgraded to we know for sure so why not. It was determined early on that the scruples had been exposed to a highly toxic nerve agent called novacek developed in the soviet union in the 1970 s. However neither porton down thats the u. K. s top secret chemicals up north e. O. P. C. W. Could confirm the origin of the agent used in the schools. We were able to identify it is not a choke to identify it was a military grade nerve agent we have not verified the precise source but we have provided the scientific information to the government who then used a number of other sources to piece together the conclusions that they have come to the production of chemical weapons in russia is set to have stopped in 1992 moreover not to talk or study in a number of other countries including the Czech Republic sweden survive and some suspect even the u. K. Itself moscow says its often more of a joint investigation into the if was rejected and it was consistently blocked access to the o. P. C. W. Probe how the british army and us who discovered and administered 1st state to the 2 russians while wearing no protective gear suffered no symptoms despite contact with the agent has also triggered some queries. Sorry to say both sygate survived the attack and were released from hospital off to treatment since then you know has issued one statement through the British Police and appeared in one t. V. Interview where she asks for no one to contact her cousin victoria also had a brief phone conversation with her but was left with more questions than answers when it was clear she was speaking in someone elses words it could not be heard on the phone but i heard someone saying you can talk somebody dolled my number for her because she clearly didnt remember my cell number logically she had to call my home number but for some reason for my cell phone for the tourist subsequently how to how u. K. Visa applications repeatedly rejected well you know how its been seen since her recovery her fall has not and despite multiple attempts of Russian Diplomats have been tonight access to the us citizens but its cripples have since disappeared without a trace. Struggling to identify those behind the attack the investor website betting tat apparently came up trumps they located 2 russian nationals and that fateful day they claimed as of the g o u thats russias military Intelligence Service the 2 appeared in public on t. In fact until night any involvement would have looked at to go to war i would have loved it with. The fact that they didnt both the to hide themselves while strolling along soulsby streets also triggered some queries. They had absolutely left for seems to be a very reckless and clear trail of evidence which almost seems to be designed or at least almost inevitably led to the conclusion so the police and the authorities have come to today so i asked idea how much more do we now know tons out even 2 years on not much key questions remain on oncet man with the script as a party showing no signs of risotto saying its possible that the mystery of thought march day will remain unsolved whatever dante loves her your thoughts on all of our stories so do get in touch by following us on social media and even on your comments about were back at the top of the hour with the latest headlines civa.
