00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Devin Gray are UK correspondents with US. Hello, Gevin Hiver.

2
00:00:03,880 --> 00:00:04,120
Speaker 2: Hella.

3
00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 1: So, the suspect in the case of Medal McCann doesn't

4
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:10,960
Speaker 1: want to be interviewed by UK police. Why no?

5
00:00:11,360 --> 00:00:14,640
Speaker 2: And what's more, they can't make him now. Basically he

6
00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:17,639
Speaker 2: hasn't given any reason. It's been reported he has just

7
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:22,000
Speaker 2: rejected the request for an interview. Now. Christian Bruckner is

8
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 2: his name. He's forty nine years old. We've been reporting

9
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 2: about him before, haven't we. He's never been charged in

10
00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:31,639
Speaker 2: the Madeline McCann case. He denies any involvement in the

11
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 2: little girl. She went missing back in two thousand and

12
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 2: seven on the Algarve in Portugal as a little three

13
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 2: year old girl. She's never ever been seen since and

14
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:44,599
Speaker 2: despite extensive searches, her body has never been found. Now

15
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:48,160
Speaker 2: the police are treating this in Germany as a murder case.

16
00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,559
Speaker 2: UK police treating it is a missing person's case. But

17
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,680
Speaker 2: the Christian Bruckner is currently serving time in prison for

18
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 2: the rape of an American tourist, a seventy two year

19
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 2: Oldmerican tourists. He is forty nine. He's about to be

20
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 2: released from prison, we believe Wednesday of this week and

21
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 2: the faries he will simply then go to another country

22
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:13,840
Speaker 2: where there is no extradition treaty and he will never

23
00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:19,319
Speaker 2: then have any realistic prospect of being questioned about Madeline McCann.

24
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 2: So I think this is a big setback for the

25
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 2: McCann parents. But as I said, he has never ever

26
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,120
Speaker 2: been charged and has said he had no involvement in

27
00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:27,919
Speaker 2: her disappearance.

28
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: Okay, now, who are police hunting after this rally at

29
00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 1: the weekend?

30
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 2: Well, so a really amazing rally which I think, the

31
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 2: numbers of which way out strip what both the police

32
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 2: and Auger thought, but also the organizers too. More than

33
00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty thousand people went on a reich

34
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 2: A march through London organized by the far right activist

35
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: Tommy Robinson, well known here for some of his views

36
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 2: anti migrant and during that rally there was a separate

37
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 2: rally of the opposing view of roughly five thousand people.

38
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 2: The police were trying to keep the two groups separate.

39
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 2: Then when they got close to one another right in

40
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 2: the heart of London, that's when it got violent. Sadly,

41
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 2: there were twenty four arrests, twenty six police injured, and

42
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 2: those police had four of them quite serious injuries. There

43
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 2: were broken teeth, of prolapsed disc head injury, and some

44
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 2: really pretty unpleasant scenes. And plenty of the other protesters

45
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,640
Speaker 2: who weren't arrested at the site have been caught on

46
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:36,360
Speaker 2: body cameras worn by the police or other cameras, and

47
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: so they're trying to identify them, and then they're going

48
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 2: to try and catch them, of course, and bring them

49
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:41,360
Speaker 2: to justice.

50
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,840
Speaker 1: Listen, how worried we about what's going on with the

51
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 1: Russian drones?

52
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 2: In short, very and we should all be very worried

53
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,399
Speaker 2: about this. So last week we reported that Poland had

54
00:02:52,440 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 2: downed three or maybe four Russian drones that had come

55
00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 2: over the border. They were supposed to course, to be

56
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 2: operating in Ukraine and attacking Ukraine, part of that war

57
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 2: that Russia is conducting there. But they were not just

58
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 2: on the edge of the border. They were a long

59
00:03:09,520 --> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: way into Poland. Russia said, oh no, no, not nothing

60
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 2: to do with us, or it's a mistake, but plenty

61
00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,080
Speaker 2: of people think no, they were so far into Poland.

62
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 2: This was testing NATO and seeing what the response would be.

63
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 2: Now we learn they've also done the same in Romania.

64
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 2: So the eastern flank of NATO very much in need

65
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 2: of enhancement, more security. About four countries in the European

66
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 2: Union now pledging that enhancement to bolster security in defense.

67
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 2: But I'm afraid chilling words from Vladimir Zelenski who said

68
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:45,520
Speaker 2: this is an obvious attempt by Vladimir Putin to extend

69
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 2: the war in Ukraine outside the boundaries of Ukraine. In

70
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 2: other words, saying to Europe, this is coming to your

71
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 2: doorstep soon, I fear.

72
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, absolutely something to be scared of. Hey, thank

73
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 1: you very much. Gevin appreciated. Devin Gray, UK correspondent.
