i‘m absolutely convinced that britain can rely on europe. even though the british have decided to leave the eu as an institution, britain is still a part of europe. because so far britain has been disappointed by its traditional allies, in that in the brexit negotiations, denmark, the netherlands, ireland, in the negotiations have chosen, if you like, the eu over ally uk. well, i wouldn‘t put it that way. even though i love britain, i mean, i have to be aware of what the danish interest is in this case. i have to protect my business environment in the same way that theresa may has to protect the british business community. and you believe that changing rules for the uk would damage the single market? that could be the case. it could be, you know, followed by other countries wanting to go down the same lane, if we allow this kind of cherry picking. but denmark is keen on some cherry picking of its own. it‘s one of the world‘s biggest exporters of fish but danish fishermen rely heavily on access to uk waters. they want that to continue a

of the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov to britain. counts he was equally key but willing to give me a lot of reviews are highly experienced polished diplomat and actually a pretty good foreign minister i mean well it's written showing that he's not welcome here but ok so what we say you're not welcome to talk if frankly far is the prime minister i'd be saying i hope he will soon come because we need some very frank dialogue about what he's going wrong in the relations between our two countries. and clearly if there was a poison attempt something has gone badly wrong and the russian state is one of the british state need to get to the bottom of what's happened aside from the geopolitical context and the atrocity and saw israel because the you're on the house of lords international relations committee and you mentioned business how will worse relations with russia affect breaks in britain it's difficult sorry to be quite honest we can only speculate at the moment but it's hardly going to make the russian government feel more co-operativ

in great britain. getting to break even and there is a big question for us for russians why what is happening such kind of getting poisoning only in great britain. what is this soil what is there in great britain that killed people that russian people because as the last person it's been here if he was traveling to alon done after freeing mean from then. from that. i rest ok he was absolutely clean when he when they left their country and now it has no i. know. for they are as as i'd. have. met he could it all right matthew goodwin a look i want to ask you a question about about britain's response and whether russia has miscalculated here but it just occurs to me and i could see do you think a campaign of russian with the misinformation and obfuscation aimed at a british and u.s. audience is now. i think that's likely that certainly consistent with russia's past action what we've heard even during this conversation is a lot of talk about international relations a lot of talk about the russian election

soil britain so far has failed to provide any evidence of russia's guilt of the last london is blaming russia for the attack and over twenty countries have expelled moscow's diplomats in solidarity with the u.k. in response russia's taken similar moves against those states that are my colleague andrew farmer discussed the consequences for moscow's relations with the u.k. with our correspondent right against the this is part of russia's response to the mirror response for every russian diplomat expelled from great britain the united states and two dozen or other countries most of them either need two states or countries that are seeking to do in nato for every russian diplomat expelled russia is expelling one of those countries diplomats from russia in the case with great britain twenty three diplomats have been expelled. it doesn't end there russia has also lost the u.k. to reduce its diplomatic staff in russia by an additional fifty this is the number of russian diplomats in great britain and the number of british diplomats in russia same to establish parity this is i suppose you coul

the situation is new with a negotiation is not so easy in this country and britain is. definitely. has has to find the solutions with the european union and for the time being i don't see any results from the from the negotiations and they have in order to divert the attention from the bridge that they have to see to present something to the public that could move to it and there's a great possibility to launch this into russian campaign and to russian attack and so this is this is this is this is in the area which was written in london but . but from my point to you this is a very short sighted it's an area because in the long run. britain have to explain what is behind all these things and sold very i think they have to explain what they're doing in this secret chemical laboratory which is eight miles from from the from the source very. where were the investigated the substance based on their information on the samples based on the certain standards the have and this i think this would be the question that we have to clear a fly. in the organization for proliferation of the chemi

i think if there is such if great britain takes. measures against russia russia is no order precipitated to to make. sure we measure holes so it will add a new new it we agreed. distances because because russia is a sovereign country cannot stand without a reaction so. what i am afraid. as i said seen from geneva is now we are in a kind of escalating as collating tense sons because of russia as currently the right to make retaliations which is not too good a good thing but what what can or should do i think that there is no. means of doing so do songs for for russia and that's a pity for hold the situation on the european continent and will not be striking some people as particularly peculiar is how just yesterday we were reporting u.k. counter-terror police bringing live footage of them saying they were yet to declare any suspects so why now then just be twenty four hours later are we saying what is politicians being completely insistent the russia was responsible for the poisoning . yeah i think the russia is is nothing to see wit

the man britain believes poisoned him is andrei lugovoy. today, he dismissed claims that moscow had attacked sergei skripal as propaganda. translation: why do they say he was poisoned? perhaps he poisoned himself or had a heart attack. you talk about propaganda, but what about alexander litvinenko? the inquiry in britain into his death found that you had poisoned him, probably on the orders of vladimir putin. translation: there was no official investigation into litvinenko‘s death. there was an attempt to accuse russia and a russian citizen, me, of poisoning him in britain with polonium. as for the kremlin, well, it's been saying very little today about sergei skripal. president putin's spokesman told me earlier, "we have no information about what happened. we cannot comment." although he did add, it was a "tragic situation." but catching spies has become one of vladimir putin's priorities. yesterday, the former kgb officer praised russia's security service for uncovering 397 spies last year. the kremlin leader has never hidden his contem

every single plane that britain had, was up in the sky. and the foreign secretary used the opportunity to push forward britain's current battle with russia — fought this time over the airwaves, blaming vladimir putin personally for the nerve agent attack in salisbury. 0ur quarrel is with putin's kremlin, and with his decision — and we think it overwhelmingly likely that it was his decision — to direct the use of a nerve agent on the streets of the uk, on the streets of europe, for the first time since the second world war. that is why we are at odds with russia. today, president putin visited a medical centre in st petersburg ahead of sunday's elections. his spokesman issued an angry statement, accusing mrjohnson of a "shocking and unpardonable breach of diplomatic etiquette." the kremlin confirmed that some british diplomats, based here at the embassy in moscow, would be expelled, an announcement officials said could come at any moment. a response to the uk's decision to expel 23 russian intelligence officers who will leave london n

not allow people coming to britain but that main point is that britain never adopted to make new ski nodded worse adopt it in the united states which is the case of a. lawyer who worked in moscow and who was killed in two thousand and nine and for his murder which his former boss big brother claimed what it was. the american congress at dock that these measures to not to freeze assets of other people who were involved in his killing but asked of them to sort of not let them travel and sammer at their nationals great britain has never docked at those because it is quite complicated to. to get into such a strong faith with russia who is a very important country i detest just give it say in london a thank you you thank. quick look at some other stories making news around the world. free. to remove. terrorists. is. leaving. it to the gaza strip. to be site. involvement. we make. the continent's future. in youngsters. seven percent.
