President has condemned the recent test of a u. S. Cruise missile saying it appears to have been developed long before one washington quit the i. N. F. Treaty which bans such weapons. And was asked about the issue after talks with the finnish president in helsinki. Quarter reports. The russian president touched upon a number of issues at the press conference from the i. N. F. Treaty like you said to the ongoing protests in moscow now on the ladder the western media has been accusing russia of cracking down on its opposition but lattimer putin stressed that the police have been acting within accordance to the law so we too must. Know something unique need the full the world as a whole not for europe in particular weve witnessed similar events in many european capitals these events oh much wider also politically fueled and have quite grave consequences for the protesters now theres plenty of discussion on that front but the main point of discussion had to do with washingtons latest Cruise Missile test that took place on sunday it was conducted in violation of the i. N. F. Treaty which banned land based Cruise Missiles that had a range of over 500 kilometers now for over 30 years this impeded the possibility of a Nuclear Arms Race between russia and the United States and while this treaty we might not have it anymore putin said that the timing of this test showed that it was in development before washington even withdrew it was a jewel in the wheel disappointed with what we see this test goes against the i and if treaty and escalates the security problem in the world and europe in particular the u. S. Tested this missile to full rights of the they lift the i and if treaty we supposed to work on this missile stilted long before the search for reasons to leave the treaty while the missile was launched off the coast of california and it was the 1st u. S. Test of a Cruise Missile with a range over 500 kilometers but its really no surprise because on the very day that washington withdrew from the i. N. F. Treaty it announced the new tests now to give our viewers a bit of context the u. S. Official reason for leaving the i. N. F. Treaty had to do with them blaming russia for noncompliance now moscow denied these claims and Vladimir Putin emphasized that moscow. It will not be the 1st one to boost its military as long as washington doesnt take steps of its own to boost its military he also reiterated that russia is dedicated to defending its borders and will respond to any military threat against the Country Security analyst Charles Schumer has explained why short midrange missiles are such a concern the main problems weve got is such as she reduced the range and the should say the payload to Nuclear Payload of Weapon Systems so you blur the boundaries between perhaps conventional systems and then the use of Smaller Nuclear weapons and then because of the really that the talents situation that weve had over many many years really depends upon that boundary being very distinct and clear one because if the a boundary is actually diminished in other words you can use perhaps small Nuclear Weapons in whats called a war fighting way rather than just to terence it was interesting to see that it was exactly this kind of vertical launch a system that is used for those interceptor missiles that was used to test this Weapon System this Cruise Missile that would have been banned under it i have treaties in other words weve got clear proof that the russian suspicions and those were raised repeatedly throughout the pre ending of the i. N. F. Years that those suspicions were actually well grounded. At least recording has revealed how u. S.

But are to see new york. Washington sanctions on buying iranian oil broke more than 2 and a half 1000000 barrels from the Global Market every day thats the estimate given by u. S. Secretary of state. The white house the special representative for iran has apparently tried to downplay the sanctions impact suggesting that most of the economic woes of the Islamic Republic all of its own making iran is in a recession. Inflation is creeping up near 50 percent this is largely caused by irans corruption. Irans marxist economy the traps people in poverty and a government that prioritizes ideology over the welfare of its own people. But it is also the case that our sanctions have driven up the cost on the regime. Own theory the sanctions dont target medicine in practice though due to a sweeping ban on Financial Transactions with the radiance they carved by medical supplies from abroad that are matic full of imports they increasingly face key shortages last year the International Court of justice ordered the u. S. To remove any impediments to the export of humanitarian goods including medicines to iran the trouble ministration though insists medicine is not being targeted. With number one the United States sanctions medical supplies going to the iranian people the truth is that the United States exams by the medical devices for the iranian people the iranian people know all too well that the real issue preventing access is the regime itself has international and my husband is a cancer patient and we are worried about his medication and their costs medications used to be available before but after the sanctions they have become more expensive andrea and we are worried about the future and what will happen. And i lived all this is the 2nd round of my chemotherapy off to sanctions before my chemotherapy used to cost 211. 00 euros but now with each round i need to pay 422 year old drugs cannot be found easily like before we have to search them in different pharmacies with every single one of them having a specific kind of drug. Now when they impose sanctions on the banks the money cannot be transferred easily to a foreign country in order to buy medication. To bring in many voices and some of them like components its obvious that without these parts the devices simply wouldnt work in diversity of tiran professor said Mohammed Omar and he believes washington just doesnt want to shoulder the responsibility for the impact of its sanctions. While the United States under trump is trying to be brutal he is trying to brutalize ordinary iranians and kill as many iranians as possible they want to have their cake and eat it too on the one hand they want to say that you run we are powerful and were destroying the iranian economy and on the other hand they want to say well iran is evil and incompetent and its their own fault but the truth of the matter is that they have caused great difficulty in iran this sanctions regime or this maximum Pressure Campaign is directly targeting ordinary iranians you cannot import medicine through the Banking System in iraq you cannot import anything through the international Banking System and this of course is a violation of human rights. The u. K. s public broadcaster the b. B. C. Is making headlines of its own thats after admitted to failings in its coverage during the recent european elections despite its own strict editorial guidelines but Saskia Taylor explains it took a lot for the corporation to acknowledge that sarah. The b. B. C. Has just admitted that one of its graphics illustrating the results of the european parliamentary election back in may this year it was misleading now the chart in question shows how well pro and anti bracks at parties did and it suggests that remain as one a little over 40 percent of the vote with bracks it is coming in just shy of 35 percent the conclusion of course being that sentiment in europe was stronger but and this is where the issue is the core fails to account for one important thing while the need for the party and you kip are represented as backing bracks it the conservatives are not despite being a party that was then and still is committed to leaving the european bloc. Coconspirator has pursued de she for months and despite being rebuffed by the b. B. C. Yesterday finally had his complaint accepted it was up to dr threatening to take the most of the ofcom the charge to use by the b. B. C. To present the Election Results attempted to do a brutally imply and to brag suit parties receive the most routes now conservative support of bracks it is by no means whole hearted but publicly its now pursuing united pro bracks it policy to reason may of course was adamant on this everyone knows her famous mantra that means brett said and this is only hardened and Boris Johnson has vowed to take the u. K. Out of the e. U. By the october deal or no deal so this was a significant omission on the part of the b. B. C. Indeed if that had correctly included the conservative party the progress it is would have taken the lead in that graphic by 3 percent but tenshi changing the implications of that election another aspect of the story was mentioning is that the b. B. C. Actually rebuffed the complaint for almost one month while we. Your concerns given the preceding paragraph we dont believe readers would have been misled on what the graph was showing now as i said the b. B. C. Has since admitted that these graphics were a lapse in editorial standards theyve been removed and a note of correction added to the website but there is a little back story to this because this isnt the only complaint directed against the b. B. C. On this very issue actually jury the elections back in may the ball costa faced allegations of bias from viewers are nigel frosh who claimed that the party hadnt been given a fair amount of time so allegations of antibiotics that brought bias aunt knew we all know of course that bretts it has become one of the most divisive issues of british politics in modern history so its probably on surprising that people are disappointed that the b. B. C. Has failed to live up to its commitment to impartiality on the issue.

Its not a shooting war but it could easily become a world war there was a war already on china there has been a war of attrition against russia for somebody is now breaking up the Russian Federation is an american objective. The the. Maintaining. Maintaining the supremacy of the u. S. In all areas of Human AffairsEconomic AffairsCultural Affairs is what this particularly this really regime and washington is committed to all regimes have been committed to its now reaching ahead. Because they see a challenge in china a challenge that. And undoubtably its an economic challenge but its not a military challenge. 6 years on from a chemical attack in syria the official probe was still shrouded in doubt that story and more still to come. Put themselves on the line. To get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. To going to be press which is what before 3 in the morning cant be good. Im interested in the water. Question. Going back to medieval days you had the church which is like the monetarist present day 21st century where they would discuss how many angels can dance on the head of a bed they were in power and they enclosed this little model and now weve got neo feudalism where you guys central bankers discussing how many derivatives can be stuffed into a worthless pension fund and weve got folks in San Francisco in newark new jersey dying from medieval diseases. Pretty. Much the Program Wednesday mark 6 years since a deadly chemical incident outside the syrian capital back in 2013 the rebel stronghold of it was targeted with rocks and rockets containing sarin gas this prompted International Outrage with many pointing the finger at the Syrian Government. The Syrian Government has utilized chemical weapons in its fight against rebels the syrian sarin gas attack which art ministration says the Syrian Government launched the assad regime has used chemical weapons including the nerve agent sarin syrian troops now have the deadly nerve agent sarin gas weaponized and at the ready syrian president Bashar Al Assad responded to the allegations calling them part of a fake narrative of the west the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons launched a Fact Finding Mission to investigate that incidents and others in its wake it was one of reports on what progress has been made. This syrian war theater has become the seeing for some of the scariest Chemical Attacks of the 21st century in many acts of this tragedy it is still not known to this very day who launched noxious project tiles that have killed hundreds if not thousands of people for years the socalled Fact Finding Mission and initiative over un backed chemical watchdog has been tasked with dotting the ice the establishment of a Fact Finding Mission was based on the General Authority of the o. P. C. W. Director general seek to uphold at all times the object and purpose of the chemical weapons convention. In a report on a series of chemical incidents in 2015 the mission showed a drawing of an alleged munition used in one of the attacks what they didnt mention though was that using such a device as a bomb didnt make sense it was loaded not with chlorine but rather the chemicals that needed to be mixed together to become toxic according to the u. N. To facilitate this would be a tall order the a c f c hydrochloride fluorocarbon gas canisters commonly referred to as refrigerant canisters are widely available because they used to refill refrigerators and air conditioners however they are disposable and they repurchasing all refilling would require technical modification of the valve Technical Expertise and equipment would be needed to modify the valve to refill the canisters with liquids or compressed gas the report gave no clear indications as to how this weapon had been assess. And any nation that looked to see it was a holes of the virus put forward and yet for any report is that these were. Filled with Something Else k. These canisters that there was no device shown these cancers would rule out on to being. Refills were not accountable so this is a big question mark in your own report there taken something constructed as the device which allegedly can be ineffective where the pattern c
