Investigate alleged war crimes in the palestinian territories. Just 10 10 pm monday august 23rd of december welcome to this 30 minute live update from the Arts International will do center with me kevin. First focus on the u. K. And the n. H. S. There renewed concerns about the state of the National Health service after a woman died in hospital of cardiac arrest following what her family say was a 6 hour wait for an ambulance having broken a foot outside her home in south Wales Donegal b. Was apparently left lying on a freezing pavement until help of a. The Ambulance Services apologized for the lengthy delay but also emphasize too that the n. H. S. Is under enormous strain especially this time of year. We are sorry that our response took longer than we would have liked on this occasion lengthy waits for an ambulance or a sign of pressures across the whole unscheduled care system not just in wales but across the u. K. Showed was dusty next then takes a closer look at the tragedy of the raft of challenges faced by the n. H. S. Well were hearing story upon story of the state of the n. H. S. And the crisis within it but this one really has shocked the nation after a woman died after waiting for 6 hours for an Ambulance Service after breaking her foot in the wells despite neighbors running around to providing her clothing and warm items she was then finally taken into hospital but later died of cardiac arrest heres the fathers account of what happened. Right she was waiting. They would dealing with a heavy influx of. This time we were told they were doing the best but they didnt know when they would get to. The call handler did say that they were dealing with a heavy influx of calls plus they said theyd be there as soon as possible but the issue is they argue that its not just a situation within the welsh and h s but the entirety of the United Kingdom we know theres plenty of allegations against the n. H. S. When it comes to issues of being woefully short staffed and woefully under a crypt when it comes to hospitals across the United Kingdom but as we know this incident is not isolated and there are several issues within the n. H. S. Well the n. H. S. Being held as a beacon of British Society and of course has been in operation since 1948 but the issue of the crisis in the n. H. S. Has led to many people becoming quite concerned when it comes to many people outside a London Hospital of thoughts of the crisis with an n. H. S. My husband. And himself hospital. Rob ford never had a problem the saying its a worry too much people. See this is not true it doesnt look like it when you come into the hospital you see the doctors will be looking to know both what happens is the ambient people cant leave the patient until. They get seen so i think thats part of ease of my. New car for you to control and if youve got a call for a 1000000 population adding to the existing population every year and youre not building a new hospital youre not building new doctors for agrees it cant work. Well this isnt the only crisis in scandal to hit the n. H. S. As of late as we know the heart of concerns is post brecks deals and negotiations particularly at the heart of concern is the n. H. S. Now the leader of the opposition Jeremy Corbyn has accused Boris Johnson of going down the path of selling off the n. H. S. Weve now got evidence that under Boris Johnson the n. H. S. Is on the table and will be up for sale he tried to cover it up in a secret and this is the reality yes above down to go see a chanst n. H. S. Is far for sale but truth be told theres a barrel of issues when it comes to the n. H. S. From the more obvious like cuts to services but also a growing population and ageing population evolving Health Care Needs but one of the biggest most crucial factors at the moment is of course the increase of reliance says on the privatized sation when it comes to the National Health care system so as you can see the seems to be an unending crisis. Russias foreign minister spoke out against the United States decision to impose sanctions on Companies Involved in the construction of the nord stream to gas pipeline so he says the move undermines the sovereignty of european nations and the stress that the project will be completed anyway despite washingtons attempts to thwart it. Sort of in the states so it will be finished despite all these threats i am convinced that the 1st proponents of europeans understand their commercial interests in terms of ensuring Long Term Energy security secondly of course they were humiliated in the words we heard from the german side show that our European Partners still have their selves reach back to. The north stream to gas pipeline once completed will supply germany with russian gas via the baltic sea but over a 1000 kilometers long its going to be capable of transferring 55000000000 cubic meters of gas per year to europe thats enough to supply 30000000. 00 households it goes down off examines the dispute over the project and europes defiance of the u. S. Right now and their thoughts on it. Washington has weaponized sanctions its official along with spending on nukes the army and cyber ops sanctions are in the u. S. 2020 military budget it started in mission for the year the elimination of one of russias gas our trees into europe currently under construction the United States commands all our European Partners whos taken a strong stand against north stream 2 and we commend others to do the same germany is totally controlled by russia because they were getting from 60 to 70 percent of their energy from russia and a new pipeline this pipeline if completed. Would make europe even more dependent on Russian Energy we dont want your Energy Supplies to be defended im flattered to be fair washington has been backed into a corner here its been offering and puffing over the project for years dishing out threats and blackmail but to no avail the threat of sanctions has seen key European Contractor all seize hold its operations nevertheless in an admittedly rare act of disobedience to the us europe has been on russias side determined to have the pipeline built as a matter of principle the e. U. Opposes the imposition of sanctions against you companies conducting legitimate Business People is a given i dont government is against extraterritorial sanctions really dont practice we oppose especially in through tutorial sanctions that his german and european command. Washington has decided that even the closest nato allies dont deserve mercy if the us geo political and commercial ambitions are at stake why while its easy follow the money russia doesnt ask much for its gas and nord stream too will be europes cheapest way of getting the blue fuel and thats in stark contrast to the alternative washington is trying to. Force feed on its treasured allies across the atlantic shale gas because really there is only one economy that has to be strong uncle sams even at the expense of its nato partners and the made in america stamp may be fancy but the markup for the freedom brand makes the whole affair outright economically stupid for the e. U. Also washingtons been trying to convince brussels that tightening its belt and enjoying a bit extra economic stress is well worth it because its all for a good cause supporting a nother european friend in need ukraine which had been left out of the pipeline deal to keep working together to stop the north stream to project that undermines your creates economic and Strategic Security we do not want our european friends to fall prey to the kind of political and economic manipulation russia has attempted in ukraine since it cast off its soviet shackles it would create another tool for the kremlin to use Russias Energy resources to divide europe and undermine stabilize ukraine it was almost like russia listened because hours before sanctions hit north stream 2 construction moscow and kiev shook hands on a gas transit deal so europe all out winds from the pipeline both economically and geopolitically seeing russia and ukraine finally touch base again and this statement by the u. S. Envoy to germany hasnt aged well at all. Currently there is a lot of talk in germany about doing more for europe and we believe that when it comes to north stream 2 we have taken an extremely pro european position washingtons crocodile tears are not fooling anyone anymore trying to maintain a compassionate face pretending its acting in the best of intentions only to have itself exposed as a super bully rolling out one creative plot after the other of forcing its will on friend and foe alike it goes down off reporting a spokesperson for nordstrom to told r. T. That the project is essential for ensuring europes Energy Security thing that work will be finished as soon as possible we are several analysts for their views on the escalating geopolitical tussle over at the. Well out of. The. Is due to the effect its really sort of the so ready got very good its a traditionalist remain called holy shit with the banks and so also the very sensitive question that us is sucked out in something to do that awkward sorceries sometimes they try to throw out all the problems. The 6 leads the position of and the specific oddities. Described it america doesnt have to be part of every deal that is made on the planet and there are important of course our most important and i and germany on the other hand they have no problems whatsoever to quote the allies under pressure which is not sort of an act of friendship i believe that the americans were hoping that their pressure would work along the way at some earlier point and now they dont they realize that europeans are very firm they want to complete north stream to they want to have the cheaper russian gas delivered to europe and only now are they taking actions because they realize that the game is lost and now theyre putting on sanctions to make it difficult for russia and the europeans to close the deal u. S. Interests that dog maintain a rift between western europe and russia because they need in the future blog even more than in the present they need. To have a close ally and did a highly disciplined approach us atlantic western europe at their site. Israels ambassador to the militant nations laws a scathing attack on the International Criminal court accusing it of diplomatic terror itself that was ations chief prosecutor fatah pursued and im from friday their intention to investigate alleged war crimes in the occupied palestinian territories. I am satisfied that there is a reasonable basis to proceed with an investigation into the situation in palestine war crimes have been being committed in the west Bank IncludingEast Jerusalem and the gaza strip the i. C. C. Prosecutors decision has turned the International Criminal court into a Political Tool to do legitimize the state of israel this is a dark day for truth and justice and i asked a few years of hard work and full and also providing all the necessary information about the crimes committed by the occupying new suits against the Palestinian People to the cute white police ian territories the decision was finally made today this is a great day for us we have achieved what we wanted no the i. C. C. Has the authority to hear cases relating to war crimes genocide and crimes against humanity israeli officials insist that its got no jurisdiction they say to investigate alleged crimes committed in the palestinian territories because they say palestine is not universally recognized as a sovereign state but the courts top prosecutor has signaled her intent nonetheless to look into alleged war crimes carried out by both hamas and the Israeli Defense forces since 2040. Challenge over it is the director of the ramallah based al hakim and Rights Organization he told us all crimes committed in the territory should be investigated but that israel is not interested in delivering justice for palestinian victims. They dont allow for instance for the special robot wars to get them to investigate they do to allow for the commission of you know the u. N. Commissions of inquiry is to come to investigate this is the case you know this is how the israel is dealing and treating places see it doesnt work on lean one way and the palestinians all of them they accept. That if there is crimes you know committed by palestinians literally i. C. C. Decides about. Go after the palestinians criminals or Something Like that what right is that is the concern from that if they know well that palestinians committed crimes this is the i. C. C. Go after them. But i think they dont want for this mechanism and for this tour and for this or for 80 to function. Theyre meant to stay for russia this monday president putin officially opened the Railway Section of the strait bridge which connects the Crimean Peninsula to mainland russian russia need to pull the train then for the maidan crossing travelling from crimea to the town of in russias president region but he meant putin then delivered the address to the construction workers involved in what has been a hugely ambitious project. Because that. Very dear friends Railway Terminal a much bigger one the one in crimea is capital sin for opel the one that i used to arrive at has a little kid to go to the seaside didnt see a single passenger train from mainland russia for more than 5 years all i can tell you that crime means did want a cheaper way to travel to russia to see their relatives they wanted cheaper goods holidaymakers from mainland russia the ones who couldnt afford a plane take it were desperate to get it as well while now they do have it we just saw the russian president Vladimir Putin inside the 1st train there it is right there to cross the Railway Section of the longest bridge in europe i guess we can call it a test and once the test was over the 1st passenger train bound for sebastopol departed from St Petersburg just think of it it will take 40 hours for that train to reach the crimean bridge it will cross the entire european part of russia before it gets to the Crimean Peninsula but just for a moment lets go back to talking about the bridge itself for you to understand what kind of technological marvel it is how much effort was put into what i just want to mention that construction workers had to endure more than 10000 hours of rough seas in the process well here are a few more facts about what the crimea and the whole of russia were waiting for for so long. The people right here are celebrating because they do have a real reason to celebrate i can tell you that a few tens of thousands of railway think its have already been solved soon train will depart from moscow and 3 from other cities of russia you know as well as well because that is exactly the demand that i was telling you about and just wait for the Holiday Season to be. This way that Landmark Legal ruling in france the countrys biggest Telecoms Company and its former c. E. O.
