states of the united kingdom there are short about a hot button things in the united kingdom you cannot talk about or you know very sure that that there are these offenses you cannot even think about it for example and in china as a whole you cannot talk about subversion of china you cannot talk about the splitting of hong kong away into independent territory you cannot talk about toppling the communist party of china so let's be honest each country has a short list off means that you cannot talk about is china torturing people as the un alleges julian assange is being tortured here for revealing important pieces of information that educate the citizenship of china now i'm not. aware of these direct information and for the. 3rd party reports i hope you would really do a lot of homework to verify their truth of this i think if we'd really apply honest a decent a rule or julian assange should be freed and you should probably even give him award for outstanding journalistic reporting which actually exposes some of the very dark secrets in the world there have been some debunking of the cla

today we are going to be talking about russian influence in the united kingdom. this conversation is actually part of a broader recording that csis just produced that looks at how to counter the russian and chinese influence. so last thursday we held a conversation with former australian prime minister malcolm turn ball that looked at chinese influence in australia, part of the report examined japan and australia and how chinese influence works there. today's conversation is to look at how russian influence works in the united kingdom as part of that broader work, we also looked at germany. the reason that malcolm was so important was because we used his framing of influence activity. we looked at covert, coercive and corrupted influence factors. many reports have certainly examined the supply of influence activities, but very few look at the demand side. how democracy's use and except these influence activities. so i record and focus much more on the demand, how democrats in the government in societies influence that activity. this report was made possible by th

not just the united kingdom. 190 countries. we want everyone of them to make sure they are not in the hands of the chinese communist party. we are pleased with united kingdom's decision. we think they have come to the same understanding having reviewed the same data we have seen about the risk of privacy. facial recognition, data sets, all of that that transits across huawei systems. they concluded it wasn't in the nation's best interest and made the decision you saw this week. we were happy about that outcome. it will help the united states, as well, because you have americans that have their information transcending across the systems when they travel to the united kingdom as well. >> thank you for joining us. we really appreciate it. i will hand it back to steve. :00 p.m.: i have eastern, ron desantis will hold a news conference on the state's response to the coronavirus pandemic. watch live coverage here on c-span. during the summer months, reach out to your elected officials with c-span's congressional directory. it contai

let me first introduce the ambassador to the united kingdom. ambassador pierce arrived earlier in the spring and of course we went into lockdown, but we welcome you to washington ambassador pierce. formerly british ambassador to the united nations and former u.k. special representative to afghanistan. we also have with us luke harding, a senior international correspondent for the guardian and author of a new book entitled "shadow state, murderer, mayhem and russia's remaking of the west." it's now out, and we thank luke for joining us from london. and then of course we our very own deputy director of the europe program at csis and senior fellow, the author of the u.k. chapter for their support, and no one is better at helping moderate this conversation. they say timing is everything, and i believe this conversation couldn't be more well-timed because we're told tomorrow the intelligence and security committee, the committee of the u.k. parliament will be releasing its much anticipated report on russian interference in the u.k. and perhaps we ca

s oil company as a result of which a number of profile russian individuals moved to the united kingdom and sought political asylum here so really the true nature of the russian regime ought to have been obvious to london if no other western capital. in 2040 and yet the report makes clear successive british governments i think as i say and you said earlier demonstrated shortsightedness naivety where the threat posed by russia is concerned it is it is staggering and as you say sort of concern drips almost from from every page of the of the report but andrew let's be absolutely honest here one of the things that the report doesn't make clear all of the writing around the report makes clear is that perhaps successive conservative governments were far too close to key russian players and they simply weren't investigating for that reason . yes i mean i would just. broaden out your comment it you know there's a focus obviously on one can serve successive conservative governments here but the labor governments of tony blair and gordon brown have their their own issues with with the kremlin and

we are pleased with united kingdom's decision. we think they came to an having reviewed the same data we have seen, about the risk of privacy. facial recognition, data sets, all of that that transits across huawei systems. hey concluded it wasn't in the nation's best interest, the decision you saw this week. we were happy about that outcome. with a good helps the united states as well because you have americans that have their information transcending across the systems when they travel to he united kingdom as well. >>thank you for joining us. we really appreciate it. i will hand it back to steve.

listen just because an investigation wasn't conducted in the united kingdom does not mean that there is not evidence of russian interference not only in the united kingdom but across central and eastern europe for the past decade plus and here in the united states we know for instance thanks to the advertisements released by house democrats in may of 2018 relating to the u.s. election that some of those advertisements purchased by the internet research agency headed up by all the garcon privilege in the in russia were targeting the united kingdom with anti immigration messages before the brags that referendum there is open source evidence of this interference and the fact that mr bobbitt is suggesting that just because an investigation did not happen which you know the report is damning in its conclusions regarding that that doesn't mean there is an evidence for this long term interference you know i've looked at this interference across again central eastern europe in a stone in 2007 in georgia in 2008 in poland in czech republic and certainly in ukraine russia uses this information

kingdom and unfettered access between all parts of the united kingdom. >> mister speaker, what message might not prime minister have for the people of hong kong following passage of china's new national security law? >> we stand for rules and obligations. we think that is the basis for international relations. the imposition of this national security law constitutes a clear and serious breach for the joint declaration. it violates the high degree of autonomy in direct conflict with hong kong basic law, freedoms and rights protected by the joint declaration. of china continues on this part we would introduce a new route for those with british national ever see status, remains with the ability to live and work in the uk and apply for citizenship and that is precisely what we will do. >> we are now going to help ourselves -- >> this morning and last week, we heard from survivors about the legacy proposals, by the ira, security forces, they rejected proposals they say close the door, parched from those agreed by all parties including the uk government which embedded principles before that.

united kingdom and all the things that you described. we try in the united kingdom resilience against those attacks. we set up a number of programs like suspending democracy and countering disinformation to make us more resilient. but as you also say, some of these arguments by the russians and we all know how they affect opinion polls. i come back to my first point, why does russia want to behave like this? why not just have a more productive relationship with the west? the west is no threat to russia. so why not take a different euro-atlantic view, as in the late 1990s it seemed possible that russia might do. i think that's an important question which we should keep confronting russian representatives with. i think the second point of russia-china, i think these are very interesting and intriguing. i doubt very much it's the partnership of two equals. at the same time i do wonder if the russians more manipulative with the chinese and perhaps the chinese let on. i think the whole disinformation thing where as you say we've seen the chin

they both try to divide the united states from its most important allies, and certainly the united kingdom is america's most essential, or one of the most essential allies. they do this by using their influence activities to look at how democracies, how they divide societies. we looked at societal cohesion. we looked at the use of diaspora committee, will get the economic interconnectedness. that was a big key. how does money corrupt or capture elite? and then of course we looked at the media, how social media was interacting and regulating the types of influence activities that russia was perpetuating within the united kingdom. the scope of this report fell outside the coronavirus pandemic, but of course, near the end of our reporting we saw a more disturbing trend. that was china emulating russia's tactics. whereas russia tries to defy society and basically degrade democracy and degrade democratic institution, china attempts to suppress any criticism of china but all of a sudden we're starting to see china take on the appearances of more russian influence activities. so those are the ove

i think the united kingdom made a good decision, but i think that decision was made not because the united states said it was a good decision but because leadership here in united kingdom concluded the right thing to do was to make that decision for the people of united kingdom. uk government borrowing soared to more than £35 billion injune, about five times more than the same time last year because of the coronavirus crisis. at thejohnny depp libel trial, his ex—wife is questioned about the injuries she says were caused by him. the government has "categorically rejected" an allegation that it actively avoided investigating whether russia interfered in the 2016 brexit referendum. the accusation was made by mps presenting their long awaited report into claims of russian meddling in british politics. the intelligence and security committe says the government badly underestimated the threat, while the intelligence agencies took their eye off the ball. we'll have reaction from westminster and moscow shortly, but first, our political correspondent nick ea rdley. what influence does russia ha

it's been revealed that the united kingdom has sold millions of pounds worth of interception equipment to dozens of countries worldwide that present itself even if you use repressive now there are calls for the government to explain itself yet again the government needs to show how those risks were assessed in this case and how this equipment was ultimately used the exports include wiretap spyware and other telecommunications interception equipment that could be used to spy on so-called dissidents and it doesn't come cheap in fact the u.k. has signed off more than 75000000 pounds worth of good to have to list of countries the u.k. even appears to be breaching its own rules here as the u.k. has banned the sell off security codes to countries that might use them for internal repression and among the list of countries even the u.k. itself has accused of human rights violations including saudi arabia the u.a.e. and china. make good on my pledge bringing to force the united kingdom's 1st thomas human rights sanctions regime which gives us the power to impose sanctions on the on those involv

how alone is the united kingdom right now? well, we are in a slightly curious phase because we are in the exits lounge from the e.u., but we have not quite left because all the rules still apply to us. i think it is fair to say that we have not yet situated ourselves on the world stage in a way that we will need to do for brexit. the government was working on that. the brexit talks have been difficult, not least because of covid-19. i do think that what lies behind isr question, if it is what the role of the u.k.? i think that is an open question. the dean etches in quote is that someone has lost e.u. but not the role. which i think is probably true, and i feel it is a bit unfortunate, and i think we do have a contribution to make globally and we need to resituate ourselves after brexit. but realistically, the government has other priorities at the present time. tom: i don't mean to denigrate anybody here, but it is a phrase out there. i know it is a popular tv show years ago. is there a risk, howard davies, of a little britai

and the united kingdom can't agree on a deal on their future relations that might mean that the united kingdom will crash out of the european union at the end of the year so a lot on the table for the german government but a lot of this also requires consensus and better than simply what's going to be really what's going to be required i think i'm going to. take our viewers straight to the german parliament not because john slanging a buckle has begun how to dress to members of parliament. and i president of the bundestag in my introductory words years since it is the 1st. presidency is now assumed by german aid in a difficult time germany has assumed the presidency of the council of the european union and not surely a presidency will be overshot of a shadowed by the corona pandemic our efforts to contain it and to return to a new normal if you like of 2 weeks ago i asked for your support for the unprecedented recover i plan that we have in order to achieve the economic and social recovery in europe of autopsy or playing accounts on the 52 weeks ago i just looked at this and we agreed

people in the united kingdom. and when, last year, she was interviewed by the bbc and others, they all found that she expressed absolutely no contrition for what she had done, no contrition for supporting a regime that enslaved yazidi women, that carried out beheadings — jihadi john carried out at least four beheadings himself. utter brutality. it was her choice to do it, there's no sign that she feels what she did was in any way wrong, and i think many british people will not only have sympathy for priti patel's wish to keep her out of the united kingdom, but will actually think that this woman who went off to support a regime who wished to destroy all the values that make britain, the united kingdom the country that is — she went off to fight for a regime that opposed each and every one of these values. she now comes throwing herself on the mercy of british taxpayers and british courts — that she herself reviled — in order to get back to the united kingdom. the reality of the situation is that we have re

the whole case for security equipment export control system comes as the united kingdom prepares to resume the sale of arms to saudi arabia that could be used in the yemen conflict manmade humanitarian crisis in the world according to the united nations and a breakthrough moment just over a year ago the court of appeal ruled that the arms trade was no full because the government had not adequately addressed the risk of civilian casualties in these bombing missions but the government simply says if they were just isolated incidents and are now upping the ante the government will now begin the process of clearing the backlog of license implications for saudi arabia and its coalition partners that has built up since 20 as of june last year considering the u.k.'s sold 15000000000 pounds worth of bombs to the gulf kingdom in the past 5 years it seems that the profits britain for a kid over weapons and now intercepts of equipment are too great to give up even at the cost of human lives to start. wearing masks in shops and supermarkets in england will become cults compulsory from july the 24th pe
