A low life lot its nationals main studios here in moscow has just turned a 1 pm this saturday my name is kevin o. And if the 30 minute world news update thanks for joining us 1st then google has been accused of interfering in last years landmark abortion referendum in ireland by blacklisting certain prolife search terms on you tube in the run up to the vote the allegation that the tech giant may have attempted to influence the outcome has angered the countrys religious conservatives protests are expected in dublin later on saturday with more on the story heres polly boykin next. When you type are searched into you cim you expect to see the most relevant results but how do you know that that search result hasnt been manipulated well according to recent revelations you dont in fact its alleged that google which owns you tube with its you tube search results on the eve of the irish abortion referendum according to the project veritas investigative website google is alleged to have manipulated its algorithms and employed socalled black list on you tube a leaked document shows terms such as save the 8000 prolife were among those thought to be bolted to google isnt denying that it tweaks results of politically sensitive content on you tube by pushing what it deems to be the most credible videos above the ones with the most views weve been very public that for a wide range of news and information queries we have algorithms that are designed to surface authoritative content of all political viewpoints this helps prevent spam and conspiracy theories from surfacing prominently on our site in the midst of the irish referendum on abortion our systems abroad authoritative content to the top of our search results for abortion related queries this happened for both prochoice and prolife queries there was no distinction prolife groups arent convinced by that statement its that word or thora to vin google statement thats causing concern catholic groups in particular say they want to know why its enormous google employees who get to decide what is and isnt or thora to save content google interference in the referendum unarmed i think is a should send a warning shot across every to everybody who was interested in democracy so what we saw here was a. Google blacklisted videos and they deliberately and intentionally manipulation the kind of things that people would find when you push in search terms and heres the very obvious question i think from if this was all above board and if this was not serious then why did they hide this why we only learned about this because of projects very tight because somebody in google decided that this was wrong and just to project their interest thats the only reason we know that the prolife camp only gone it 33 percent when the vote was held in may and abortion was then legalized denial and that issue has now been put to rest but the dispute over the way google cure rate say its search results isnt going away this is horrific what google has been doing and they really need to be held accountable i mean its at the point now where theyre now interfering with elections in other countries to hear that Something Like this is happening in ireland in a foreign country where a company in Southern California the United States is dictating what gets what search results are seeing ireland to the people of ireland regarding their loss pacifically on things like abortion which is already a very contentious issue in the u. S. Throughout the globe is horrific google has absolutely no place to take part in political decisions or social decisions and to make sure that they all alone can tell which is the scene and which is not. A call to gibraltar has extended the detention of the Iranian Oil Tanker but 2 weeks of it was seized by british marines on the vessels believed to been attempting to smuggle oil to syria in violation of e. U. Sanctions to rome so the answer the most of maritime piracy show the average dustys got the latest. If youre brought to court has extended the detention of a tanker carrying a rainy an oil for 2 weeks it comes as the British Royal marines seized the ship off the coast of japan altar on thursday for allegedly trying to take oil to syria in violation of the sanctions now the crew of the sea ship grace one are being interviewed by officials and the ship is likely to remain impounded for several weeks now in retaliation and demands the Immediate Release of the vessel and what it sees as an illegal detention tantamount to maritime piracy an Iranian ForeignMinistry Official described the u. K. Moves on acceptable and called for the Immediate Release of the oil tanker given that has been seized at the request of the u. S. The u. K. Navys measure is tantamount to maritime piracy britain has no right to impose its own unilateral sanctions all those of the European Union in an extra territorial manner against the other countries this is the very bullying policy of the us Britains Foreign Office said it would not respond to every single comment about the incident that emerged from iran but it reiterated its position that the action came at the request of gibraltar to halt a vessel believed to be bound to syria which indeed violates sanctions this action the rose from information giving the gibraltar government reasonable grounds to believe that the vessel the grace one was acting in breach of European Union sanctions against syria now the e. U. Sanctions in place prevent Syrian Regime from importing oil and gibraltar said it believed that grace one and its barrels of rain in oil were bound for syria however its understood that iran has provided these documents to the u. K. Proving that the vessel was transiting to a primitive destination although it didnt exactly specify where since then. And spain have become embroiled in a row about the seizure with madrid saying that grace one was intercepted because of a request from the u. S. To the u. K. I was greedy and we have been aware of the operation civil guard. Have been watching the area but we are investigating the circumstances under which the us said its petition to the u. K.

To intercept the ship however just bolters government said in a statement that they acted independently on their own accord the decisions of her majestys government of gibraltar were taken to do independently based on breaches of existing law and not at all based on extraneous Political Considerations meanwhile the seizure was hailed enthusiastically by a key member of the trumpet ministration excell news yuki has the team this supertanker greece one leading with a renewed oil ban for syria in violation of you sanctions american our allies will continue to prevent regimes into ran in damascus from profiting off this Illicit Trade so this latest round comes at a time of escalating tensions between the u. S. And iran and of course it follows the trumpet ministration previously pulling out of the 2015 Nuclear Program a plus has reinforced panish ing sanctions against iran iran now says its no longer bound by the agreement and will breach impose limits on you graham stockpiles and that although it allies its european allies including the u. K. Have not followed suit in terms of pulling out to her and argues that others think that treats including france and germany and even the u. K. Havent done enough to keep the deal alive meanwhile other countries including russia have weighed in on the diplomatic row with russias Foreign Ministry saying that the seizure is an attempt to aggravate the situation around iran and syria and that the reaction from london and washington shows that the incident had been planned in advance. Its image of this quote a 3rd quarter shot to fame by leading a wave of Student Climate protests supposed to be drawn the ire of motorists in germany because across the country britain seems sporting offensive bumper stickers ridiculing and campaigning seems doubtful course any of that will stop the 16 year old whos already earned a nomination for a Nobel Peace Prize other photos appeared on the cover of time magazine. But we are telling you right now in my generation to do. Everything east. Today. We young people are watching out. And we promise we will not let you get away with thanks anymore. So well see the german angle here well said cystic show that german people are eager to combat Climate Change seems over 70 percent for instance a said to support the abolition maybe of short haul flights to help a majority would also be willing to pay more for Meat Products but when it comes to fuel well thats a different story with only 27 percent in favor of higher prices currently the german car industry and this is the catch accounts for 20 percent of the countrys industrial output and provides jobs for over 800000. 00 people political commentator eric hemet told r. T. That efforts to target that particular sector will not prove popular in the country. So in germany medieval already the or theres something going on against them and especially if its regarding their arse germans are concerned. Especially because they start so although. Most of the people who just follow the party off the ground are. Close and now they realize there are these n. G. O. S sessions on Climate Change. Where the. Jobs in germany are you straight and straight being people using their car and these 2 nurse where the germans are the 1st one who said well we have. A job and our cars then do a little Climate Change. This month rwanda has been marking the end of one of the most harrowing chapters in modern history the 1904 genocide over the course of 100. 00 days in the summer of 1904 roughly 800000 people were slaughtered by hutu extremists in the international as International Community based in the way in the 25 years since the atrocity the countrys made significant steps forward seeing strong Economic Growth and development but there are still a number of challenges big ones to face. A solemn anniversary for the troubled african nation of rwanda its 25 years since one of the worst genocides of recent times this history. Where not repeat. That is out on egypt ever had there. Forgive. But would not the one forget also known as the genocide against the ethnic tutsi in 1994 almost a 1000000 people were killed the assassination of the ethnic hutu president triggered the slaughter of some 70 percent of the tutsi population. Quarter of a century on the more the deep scars remain something of a surprising transform ation amazingly rwandas 29th in the world for ease of doing business ahead of spain france japan and china in terms of corruption similar remarkable progress in the top 50 head of italy or malta the country was even ranked 5th the safest in the world for walking at night with singapore topping the list no surprise or wonders called the singapore of africa and also now one of the cleanest places on earth when the countries is increasing its signal. Was in full flow under still far from being a paradise it remains of relatively poor country and democracy is not entrenched the e. U. Knows serious violations of civil and Political Rights in fact the west is locked in conflict with the white house slapping steep tariffs on the nation and a major role with europes powerhouse germany but its failed to stop rwandas growth perhaps due in part to backing from another superpower china beijings military even accompanied rwandan troops at this weeks anniversary celebrations their Performance Today has gone beyond our expectations reaching the level we train we are satisfied with their performance with the west apparently blocking its path the small african nation may have found a different road map to success. African Affairs AnalystLawrence Freeman told us that chinas extensive investment in rwanda has whats been the real driver of its development. Until. The west is now really helping out from country by their country how he 100 marvelously when the west has done nothing nothing to actually promote use of structure in economical. Its a shameful act both United States and other European Countries its only been in the last 10 or so years that on china that you ship are present even printing and they actually begun to go where were tell pollutes imports. Where the previous 50 years nothing was done by western nations and that to me crews that are not that serious about the market see and that they use the markets the hammer to beat upon beat up and sometimes regime change in african nations. Youre watching R T International i hope your weekend is going good plenty more to come since i think 16 past one now moscow time after the break this the u. S. State of kentucky is being terrorized by an invasion of black vultures farmers say they cant do much but well tell you why when we come back. I am. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy. Let it be an arms race. Spearing dramatic to follow can only. Exist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down. Politicians do something to. Put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president and she. Wanted. To go right to the pros this is what the 3 of the people. Interested in the why. Should. I get nearly 90000 people have signed an open letter to the french president emanuel mccrone urging him to intervene in the controversial case of vincent hes a former psychiatric nurse whose life support systems are about to switched off almost 11 years after a car crash left him in a vegetative state with no hope of recovery the call comes off to frances highest court ended a long running legal battle last friday ruling that doctors could indeed disconnect the 42 year olds feeding tubes that would leave him to die slowly of in a sedated state while euthanasia is illegal in the country medics are allowed to put patients into a deep state of sedation until the death but while some of lumbers relatives believe he should be allowed to die his Catholic Parents are strongly opposed to that decision they say that as the other requires basic care and can breathe on his own in fact hes being murdered. I beg you to intervene to remind france of his obligation to respect the precautionary measures prescribed by the community and not to kill my son the young my son is the life of oneself and 700 people who share this condition that are threatened please help us so more this week of a case which has proved polarizing both lumbers family is a whole. This could be the end of a complicated contradictory and absolutely heartbreaking case which has lost more than a decade in 2008 a Traffic Accident left vincent lumbered a french nurse in a vegetative state his brain was unresponsive his body was paralyzed he could only be fed and hydrated artificially after a 5 year battle for his life the battle for his death has started when numerous medical exams stated vinsons semiconscious condition was irreversible the question arose for the 1st time should be vincent continue receiving life support assistance or not its not a question that is easy or simple to answer and it has divided instance family his wife and 6 of his siblings wanted to let him die peacefully as they put it this is not the life vincent himself would want to leave opposing them were his parents arguing that vincent is simply a disease person who does not fall under frances and of life legislation and that he should leave when the 2 sides failed to reach an agreement to dish a marathon started that resulted in vinson being off and back on life support 5 times after the ruling to stop artificial attrition was confirmed by 5 different legal bodies including the European Court for human rights we do rely on doctors of course and as a see vincent has been in this state for 10 years so his chances of recovery lets be perfectly honest with you a route how much does he understand what quality of life does he have would you wish this sort of life on your worst enemy never mind the loved one vinces mother was never ready to give up at one point she even released video clips of vincents crying in attempt to show that he does feel and he is aware. But brain specialists say that this is not necessarily the case as far as saying its. Not realizing what. Normal reactions. They have nothing to do with emotions several more times the mother has tried to persuade the public and legislators that vincent should leave however every time she appealed to him being taken off life support the plug was pulled anyway you know its a crime thats all i am ashamed of france this monday been since mother made her very last plea she appeared at the u. N. Human Rights Council in geneva emotionally appealing for her sons life skills in rooms im sorry for being too emotional im crying knowledge of the top of my voice that this is the merger of france and thats the right word while were not being listened to vincent is a human being he is not an object has been held under water agree to come here in the hope that we might be able to defend him but despite all the efforts vincent was taken off of life support yet again the very next day. Thats the end of this dispute there is no longer any plea that can be made that can suspend the discontinuation of care there is no longer any legal obstacle to the discontinuation of care and so thats the end of this legal case bensons stories truly heartbreaking and controversial in many ways the battle of 2 sides of one family both wishing the best for their loved one the mother says she was fighting against a system that she believes fails to protect its citizens but some point out there was an important lesson to bill learned from vincents case in an ideal world most of us or all of us should discuss death with our loved ones. Of course we dont and especially when youre young of course you dont think youre ever going to die you think youre going to live forever but you know the organization to which i belong friends at the end we urge people to make an advanced directive and it seems that regardless whether the mans and its peaceful or not the fight is far from over hes parents and now preparing to press murder charges.
