Family needs. To scale great speed. Because the people. Are everywhere chiming in from right around the world. To moscow and to r. T. International i mean and. First in whats being described historic step 70 prisoners being exchanged between russia and ukraine following months of talks the ukrainian president met the plane which brought 35 released prisoners back to kiev some of their relatives are also there to welcome while in moscow right of your screen. A plane carrying the other 35 newly freed prisoners touched enough think help at all port said on a force there for it. To bus as part of a special motorcade have left this terminal for governmental flights carrying 35. 00 people 35. 00 people that ukraine smoke for an equal amount over their role now among those good people these 2 real machines he was head of the Ukrainian Branch of the news agency and he was accused by key of state chaison without taking good things he spent more than 400 days in ukrainian jail just awaiting his trial just during the trial and for all those more than 400 days russia has been adamant that until the court is guilty and declares hes killed the man should not be staying behind bars and in fact just weeks before this. He was released on bail that was seen as a very positive sign so this another very positive sign comes out on the heels of that one and in fact thrilled that he had a chance to talk to journalists to go to the russian journalists who were allowed behind these gates yes you know i know how all of you worried about me and thanks a lot for that i feel that i was not alone i feel that i have people who are member me who are trying to do something for me now because of. You because im a journalist who was unfairly arrested now together with drilled the shins get on that plane and on and on those 2 buses was legitimate so much he was one of the field commanders in the dinette screechy an old one of the from what we understand one of the defense battalions the dutch led investigation into the mh 72. 00 tragedy believed to be one of the key witness says that could shed light as to what happened back in 2014 this what has been a very. Very Long Time Coming but i have been forced to pools full salons finally has happened and the Russian Foreign ministry has already raised this saying that this childrens t. V. Read in this compromise we see the agreed mutual release of people detained in russia and ukraine as a positive signal we should see another important step to breaking the deadlock in the current russian ukrainian relations unlike his predecessors selenski new administration has shown a sensible approach and a readiness to compromise some experts saying that this is so we positive sign for the implementation of the minsk agreements which are effectively the only viable option you as viewed by russia and ukraine and the bloodshed the civil war in the east of ukraine igor it is an awful similar scenes played out in the ukrainian capital as 35 other freed prisoners arrived and i discussed the developments earlier with double quarter. This Prisoner Exchange was a very significant moment for the Young Political administration of ukraines president vladimir selenski and he actually went there early to the airport to visit the prisoners as they were coming down from the from the airplane to greet them and he even gave a small speech talking about the significance of this exchange for the future relations between russia and ukraine. Ukrainian president waldemar zelinsky and russian president Vladimir Putin have done everything we have promised and did not change over agreements that. He said if youll ship them and we heard this kind of sentiment echoed pretty much all over the world actually we heard the council of europe say that this was a really important step in normalizing relations between russia and ukraine we also heard from russias human rights commissioner who said this was a historic step she said and even donald trump commented on twitter he gave his congratulations to both parties. Volved give us a sense. Well at the beginning it was all speculation you know there were it was unknown who the prisoners were there were blacked out windows on the buses but now we have identified them and lets go over the main one yes one of the primary prisoners that was there were exchanged was ukrainian filmmaker all legs sense of now he was sentenced to 20 years in prison in russia on terrorism charges during the crimean referendum of 2014 he was accused of being part of a terrorist organization that plotted bombings of civilian installations during that time now he already served 5 years of that sentence and we saw him and identified him as he was stepping out of the airplane in kiev today reuniting with his family and moving on to other people we saw were some sailors that were involved in the current strait incident that took place in november of last year and now those were 24 ukrainian sailors that were identified that were traded the current straight incident was when 3 ukrainian vessels were trying to enter the sea of odds of and they were met with the russian coast guard that warned them to turn back that they were perhaps going to be in violation of russias territory on the high seas they gave no response and so the ukrainian vessels were fired on and see so now that theyve been returned this is a really historical moment for both russia and ukraine and perhaps a great leap forward for their future relations that have been tense to say the least and weve been seeking reaction just put it into context todays developments i spoke to russia for is on the list for one Martin Mccauley he is of the view the exchange is a vital move showing the negotiations you will. Its a very very important 1st step and president linsky said it was one of his priorities in fact the top priority was to get the prisoners back in jail indicate from the very beginning even before he became president said im going to improve relations with russia and thats not thats a perfectly now and in fact hes done it so therefore changing president in ukraine has improved environment and who he from old words they can Start Talking work to do you hunch republics and make progress there russia going to rule of law in the west especially in the United States saying you can renegotiate with russia. Because they have their position and they dont give it up and they dont really go this is a demonstration that russia can negotiate it wishes to improve relations with ukraine and hopefully this will spread throughout europe this is the 1st step russia russia has made concessions. Cringes made concessions and thats very important for the international management. And more world news this saturday the u. S. State department has confirmed it attempted to bribe the captain of the arena all tanker at the adrian daria warm which is out the center of a diplomatic row in order to the tane at the vessel previously known as grace one was held by the u. K. In july near gibraltar it was released in august despite protests from the United States which is increasing pressure on iran its been heading east since then and was pinpointed in the Eastern Mediterranean region but its tracking device as now its being switched off heres artes down the hawkins. If at 1st you dont succeed try and try again so keen with u. S. Authorities to get their hands on a rainy and. They used everything at their disposal 1st came the stick accusing the tanker of moving the world to syria in breach of sanctions they went to the u. K. For help the british marines impounded the ship while it was passing through the strait of gibraltar the Spanish Foreign minister said the arrest came after a demand from the u. S. To the u. K. But on 15th of august gibraltar released the vessel its sail into the mediterranean a few days later after being renamed from grace one to adrian daria one then came the carrot weve all had one of those emails im writing to you with good news what might you expect a surprise not true when perhaps a huge inheritance from a long lost royal Family Member in africa well thats exactly the email that the ships captain received but this wasnt the regular spam for the junk folder this came direct from the state department. This is brian hook i work for secretary of state mike pump a o. And serve as the u. S. Representative for iran the offer millions of dollars for captain kumar to dock his own tanker in a us friendly port that would allow it seizure by washington after the possibly confused captain failed to reply a 2nd email hit his inbox the tone now less friendly with this money you can have any life you wish and be well off in old age if you choose not to take this easy path life will be much harder for you what lay behind this thinly veiled threats was left to his imagination to ron was understandably roiled having failed at piracy the us resource to outright blackmail deliver us irans oil and receive several 1000000. 00 or be sanctioned yourself sounds very similar to the oval office invitation i received a few weeks back it is becoming a pattern incredibly the state department confirmed to this unusual strategy even adding this was no one off we have conducted extensive outreach to several ship captains as well shipping companies that some kumar meanwhile is on the us naughty list how differently this story would have ended if only captain kumar had cashed in and just arent that good news email. Very intriguing stuff there from down in the hawkins well Us National Security advisor john bolton just to point out has tweeted the tanker has now been seen entering a syrian port iran previously noted it had made any definitive statement about the ships final destination by the way anyone who said the adrian daria one wasnt headed to syria is in denial terror and thinks its more important to fund the murderous assad regime than provide for its own people we can talk pretty runs not getting any sanctions relief until it stops lying and spreading terror. The fact that they try to bribe a captain of the tanker and then subsequently threaten them is extraordinary and it should be something that people in the United States. Would be kept talking about day and night but there are also other issues as well bolton wants to intimidate iran and the very fact that he has failed and the supertanker is alongside the syrian shore reveals that failure so hes outraged at another level he wants to make that Syrian People suffer as much as possible because thats been u. S. Policy from many years now and on that their hand he wants to. Prevent iran from carrying out trade with other countries to bullying and threats and illegal behavior so there are multiple reasons for the u. S. Behavior towards iran towards syria and towards the all independent countries but i think its only harming the United States in the long run because the United States is increasingly seen as a rogue regime. A want to turn attention to so i thought africa and its biggest city johannesburg where foreign owned businesses are being looted in a wave of xenophobic tensions right across the country on monday the countrys Police Minister describe the situation as a National Emergency or as to reports now from a city where a foreigner say they are increasingly living in fear. You mean shifty in johannesburg which. Has seen some of the worst violence against foreigners south africa as you can see yet ill take kids what they can to stop that was owed by non because not where are you that it seems that any moment now the entire building can come tumbling down because really hammering out the structure now the mood on the ground is little but if we dont feel under the same comfortable filming we told the show no is nowhere to be seen and no doubt he is trying to stay as far away from these kind of scenes as possible because one still gets missed is that b. Situation has not returned to complete calm i know its hard to believe but this was a bottle store one of the questionnaires working there was who comes from zimbabwe what actually happens make up one time being made to have found a cold world when the great vision of the day north up was that you said monday night the big gone by then they been. Implementing a lot from a global moment the big dig between the dems 2 straight. Across the road here is alan who owns a Hardware Store and when did you ever think that you would see these kind of scenes happening so close to a business own fortune on green fluid before enthusiasm. That someone moved through the instant chemistry becoming anything remotely. Or most of last year wonderful the room what do we do with which is a lot of ludo work for families with weve heard from. Do you think showing your South African identity protext it is going to give you this week or the why what happened are you going to go look close though most of them are the only little other police in the government doing enough more good given that were not doing enough or the norwegian government would be lonely government to go on a more global good will remove or do you want to go with lone wolves will get a little problem its not just foreign owned stores that were targeted here you can. See a 2nd hand car dealership that was broken into and the cars say to lice now the result has been an offer by the nigerian Foreign Ministry for any nigerians living in this country who feel unsafe to be able to fly back home for free this is the worst spate of them a phobia of violence that south africa has witnessed since 2008 police is to most adjacent some 8 people have been killed and more than 300 have been detained as we say the violence a sad reflection on what where he is and tenable situation. Where you from the world on your plate to be in south africa the flow your schools the girls the people thought the good will last sunday and no good for every move of middle literals youre given to be given the blows and how many years youve given some very good ideas to say you south africa your schools. And now you have no business no move this thing you should move it is feeling like you compare the cost of families all the more over how this shop here which is being completely boarded up was owned by nigerians and there is no way here to be seen of course they are very afraid the shop is completely solid but this shop too has been looted also owned by nigerians lock on the door completely sealed up so people hear differently afraid that the violence will continue you welded up the shops why played with the hollywood and did they take everything through the roof. And where all the nigerian owners in the foreign owners all got on the world are they thinking to be for a country they wrote your book or do you talk to a great group would. Ever quest went out today for nigerians in the country who want to be free of charge i able to do so and there is at least one flight today leaving at this stage the situation is extremely untenable unstable and i continue being on the streets theres a lot of uncertainty so when we what what will happen remains to be seen our team johannesburg. I want to point out as well both the head of the province were just burgers located insists that the situation is under control. I am confident that the police are on top of this situation. I have said but if the police. Are not coping i would have asked that the south African Defense force must rainfalls the police but so far they are dealing with the situation in all. Provinces calm ok time for a short break and to see what programs are coming up here in R T International but after that a story that might intrigue you residents interest them are furious with their new neighbors doubts the incoming u. S. Embassy we break down why isnt 92nd. The us or the gemini that steve globalization and this came in with thompson 2016 and he the idea of monitor ization the global Central Banks cooperating to put out a currency unit of accounts that was better than gold is a 6070 year experiment that is now collapsing which is leading to dollars a synaesthete countries like russia move aggressively away from the dollar and buy gold and did globalization simultaneously. Compared to centuries of chinese history 2 years is nothing unless budgets 2 years of donald trump with us another round of terrorists being added to the us trade war this last week chinas strategy of waiting out the enemy likely to work with the current american president. Might start back with a neighborly spot over a whole residents of a jerusalem neighborhood are enraged by an almost 6 metre tall barrier thats being built around the new us embassy there they say it will block 3rd view of the area originally the American Embassy receives a permit to build the wall 3. 2 meters high but it was recently authorized for the barrier to be nearly doubled by locals are urging that construction be halted. Im. Very upset i come out my house and i want to be able to see the view over the desert i dont want to look at a big stone wall you know imodium it i go to one morning and saw them doing demolition and construction work so i asked what was happening and they said they were making the wall higher why would they do that doesnt exist seymour high enough what was the problem the wall now flows entire view from my house. Were very upset we are part of a group of neighbors were trying to see what can be done to stop this i mean like consulting with us its going to block our view its going to block i dont know if i was uncomfortable corey door and we dont want to live with that. Lets. Hear in may last year the United States embassy was relocated to jerusalem after the Trump Administration recognized the city as the capital of israel the owner of a tourism based Construction Company says the new wall is a blight on the city. I understand that the American Embassy has requested to build a wall 5. 8 meters high but the maximum height it will in jerusalem according to the authorities is 3. 2 meters 5. 8 meters is too much and they disregarding the neighbors there are many beautiful houses here in the center of jerusalem and a wall like that would be an eyesore. But we have asked the authorities in jerusalem to comment and well let you know what they say as soon as we get a response ok moving the program the fight against dissin from nation is at the core of an upcoming book by a former u. S. State Department Official in the Obama AdministrationRichard Stengel its message is that america is losing the information war against russia thats struggling to control and counteract faults. Its not enough to bustle falshood because truth the truth does not always win. The scale of russian disinfo nation was beyond what we were capable of responding to or thora tyrion governments have gone from fearing the flow of information to exploiting its they understand that the same tools that spread democracy can engineers and doing lets face it democracies are not very good at combating this information Richard Stengel was managing editor at Time Magazine between 262013 before moving on to government work he served as undersecretary of state for Public Diplomacy and affairs for 2 years saying those views on propaganda altered some last year he openly bought it describing himself as chief propagandist basically every country creates their own narrative story im not against propaganda every country does it and they have to do it to their own population and i dont necessarily think its that awful. I would say theres a difference between propaganda and us telling people what our policy is so i dont think it was propaganda. You know my old job at the state department was what people used to joke as the chief propaganda is job well journalist then or 3rd done in the us are things that washington has a selective approach to dealing with the truth. Americans never a law and even when they lie its not a lie because somehow its a. Pursuit of a higher truth and so are so stengel would never admit to admit to deceit to to painting a false portrait remember though the worst of the us does terms of Foreign Policy the greater the distance from ation that that emanates out of washington the u. S. Never changes the u. S. Is always consistent always honest always forthright and that anybody who says anything to the contrary must be it must be spreading this information in behalf of russia on one hand yes the us is being more openly propagandist thick on the other hand when the us does it its not propaganda its simply the truth and anything to the contrary is ok i want to turn attention to london where there was a confrontation between rival brags that rallies inside parliament in the city earlier this month they have only Police Protests in Parliament Square politically bruising week for the Prime MinisterBoris Johnson lost his 1st 4 parliamentary votes as m. P. s rejected his push to allow a no breaks in his attempts to call a snap election next month all makers also moved to force johnson to seek yet another break to its extension to the end of january this time if a Withdrawal Agreement isnt reached by the current deadline of hollow when the Prime Minister will try again on monday to get m. P. s or much. Ok kemp is standing by to morrow get redacted tonight its a sideways swipe at the news thats next season. Desists is a sticker from the water bottle phone in the stomach of a fish the brand is sponsor of the Cocacola Company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that lets tell consumers there are the bad ones there the litter bugs are trying this way industry shouldnt be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. In maine that seems cool sets for some in their classes to seek a course to stay in your homes at a special projects funded we tell the difference and close on the new best that is the end of a footy team the fun now the mountains of waste only grow higher. When the lawmakers manufacture consent to step into public wealth. When the ruling classes and protect themselves. With the financial merry go round of lives only the one percent. We can all middle of the room sick. To lose money in real news. From the courage to act. This is a comedy show where americans in america covering American News are called foreign agents. Of the world it should operate all right a certain country or an area or tries something and if it works other places do it if it doesnt work you dont do it its like when you were a kid and you know you saw your brother slide down the banister and rock him self on the newel post. And you thought to yourself maybe thats not for me. Thats how our government should work but its not for Profit Health care corporate person or the drug war etc etc we keep racking ourselves on the New York Post and. Try it again. But the reverse should be true also if a city anywhere in the world tries something and it works great we should do it this brings me to the idea of universal basic income. Everybody receiving money from our government simply for being a citizen no questions asked i think its about time we try it and see that works oh wait its been tried a 1000000 times and worked a 1000000 times and how do i know that reading. Has rudd bregman details in his book utopia for realists u. B. I. Has been tried many times in canada and alaska and africa and europe there was a study in britain where 13 men who had lived in the streets for years were given 3000. 00 pounds each about 4500. 00 at the time did they use it for hundreds of all men milk lattes or giant bags of cracker or drivers wanted up and white themselves. No it turns out not 18 months after getting the money over half were no longer holist and all of them had improved their lives significantly in the mid b a. Figures for malnutrition took a nosedive from 42 percent to 10 percent as did those for truancy from 40 percent to nothing and crime down by 42 percent so youre telling your story. C you tell me theres practically a Silver Bullet for ending poverty and decreasing crime well we better avoid that like the plague. Me lets go back to giving Homeless People can a soup and a parasite ox if they collect enough cans they can build a house. Basically in
