From our studios in moscow this is r t international. Time with. The International Association of athletics federations has extended its ban on russia it comes as the World Antidoping Agency relaunches compliance procedures against the countrys Antidoping Agency amid claims moscow provided manipulated data the probe could cost russia its participation in next years olympics moscow has already reacted to the allegations. Rosado is in full compliance with the code this is confirmed by the fog that we have passed to audits in 2 years i was responsible for them i can guarantee this was absolute certainty for saudis committed to meeting all these International Obligations however we have nothing to do as the most cool aboard tree or the samples well with the l. M. Pics already upon us next summer the World Antidoping Agency is actually investigating a bombshell allegation that could see russia suspended from tokyo games next year now let me give you some details on whats happening now russia has been given a 3 week deadline to explain why data from moscow Drug Testing Laboratory provided to the World Antidoping Agency might have been tampered with and eve these suspicions of trying to tampering prove correct then the country could again be suspended and that is happening just a year after russia was reinstated actually handing over that particular day there from villa bora tree was among the critical requirements for the reinstatement and of course there has been some high level reaction to this weve know found some inconsistency were going to deal with it were going to deal with it properly we dont know yet whether its tampering or manipulation or whatever else it might be since the rules state that if we assert noncompliance and the russians dont accept it it will be decided by the court of arbitration for sport so you have to be very careful you have to know exactly what happened and thats the process were involved in we met all the conditions for the restoration of sunder which were established by the Water Executive Committee we were told that database transfers to water by the informant was slightly different from the one the water experts had taken a copy of in moscow in 2019 what exactly these discrepancies are and what they are connected with would be established by experts from both sides. For our parents we continue to provide all possible systems let me remind you that russias Anti Doping Agency was actually suspended back in 2015 and after 3 years it was reinstated as ive mentioned before all of that happened after claims that there was that widespread state run doping scheme in the country actually there was a number of some really strong accusations that we heard at the time however not everything was actually proved with some harsh avodah and as for moscow well moscow denied it was state sponsored but still there was enough evidence to ban scores of russian athletes they were allowed to participate only to a limited extent and at the Winter Olympics in south korea and the neutral flag and now this is just the basically the latest twist in this ongoing story. Cashmore professor of sociology. Asked in university and a former sports and media lecturer says this could end up isolating russia from the sports world the potential. Calamitous those photos russia. Could result. Russia being banned by every sport that is affiliated toward the World Antidoping Agency in other words not just the olympics but they could be disqualified from the fetal cup and all the other major sporting tournament around the world for lord knows how long frankly what were hearing about is a discrepancy this is mysterious are can claim to know and i dont know anybody else who doesnt know exactly what the nature of this socalled discrepancy in the data that russia is appears to be completely confident that its quite minor and they said only earlier this week that the wider war get our Armed Services if water is satisfied by those arts as by those explanations of the so called discrepancy there are presumably this scandal will be over and russias reinstatement will progress satisfactorily but if it isnt satisfied thats when the trouble will really begin and ask when we really are into unknown territory. Young environmental activists agreed to turn berg was the highlight of the uns emergency Climate Summit on monday she just World Leaders accusing them of ignoring the problem and stealing her childhood. You have stolen my dreams my childhood with your empty words and yet im one of the docks once. People are suffering people are dying entire School Systems are collapsing we are in the beginning of a mass extinction and what you can talk about is the money and fame or tails of each time of Economic Growth how did you i accept gave donald trump an angry look when she crossed paths with the u. S. President she was a score to decide by security personnel as trump arrived at the u. N. Headquarters for a separate meeting on religious freedom to address came at the start of the un Climate Action summit a day devoted to World Leaders showing Climate Solutions and new pledges are for action. To emerge is not the only champion of Climate Action making headlines french president emanuel macross found himself facing protesters in paris who think that hes not doing enough are to delve deeper into the story. President matt corner from us has a once again called the banners to help in the fight against Climate Change speaking at the un Climate Change emergency summit he said he understood the frustrations of the millions of schoolchildren who had been striking on fridays next amended to be deployed in one week for months and months now weve heard the young people speaking and i think theyve identified as absolutely urgency that we have to respond to here but while much corn understands their frustrations his government didnt seem too keen on those climate activists who protested in paris over the weekend with some alleging brute force was used by the police as the violence spiraled out of control. And much corn has made it clear he really wants the protesters to go away well from folks at least as what you really really wants is for them to take their anger out on another if you country polands. Marching every friday to say that the planet is burning thats nice but that is not the problem people should go protest in poland help me move those i cannot push forward who is upset that poland is refusing to commit to an easy target to be Carbon Neutral by 2050 heads blocking the floor from adopting this is official policy thats not going down well in poland with the countrys Deputy Foreign minister has accused the court of the lecturing and it is perhaps difficult to swallow such a lecture when france itself has been accused of calling behind tackling the Climate EmergencyFrances Mission emissions targets in 3 or 4 big sectors a wise person one said people who live in cost houses show. 3 brix advice some may cancel my phone to take challah jeev risky r. T. Paris. French german and u. K. Leaders have openly blamed iran for an attack on a Saudi Arabian oil refinery earlier this month british Prime MinisterBoris Johnson even promised to help the u. S. Secure the gulf region and with the fate of us iran relations hanging in the balance are tuesday your hawkins looks into how the standoff could play out. Iran and the United States go way back a relationship at sea a coup terrorism sanctions even direct confrontation for over half a century its hard to find enemies more bitter could we see all out war the question today on the minds of many listening to recent rhetoric youd certainly think that possibility is growing that if any country wants to attack iran it will seize territory turn into the conflicts main battlefields will never let any war be dragged into iran we will continue until the end we will continue until the full destruction of any aggressor and we will leave no safe place for enemies and that was a very large attack. And it could be met with an attack many many times larger very easily by our country the saudis have called for u. S. Help after those attacks on unsold refineries it seems all those billions spent on u. S. Military gadgets werent enough to keep them safe back in may the u. S. Sent an Aircraft Carrier strike group to the gulf to this latest incident the u. S. Was quick to announce another military deployment the president has approved the deployment of u. S. Forces which will be defensive in nature and primarily focused on air and Missile Defense we will also work to accelerate the delivery of military equipment to the kingdom of saudi arabia and the u. A. E. To enhance their ability to defend themselves many see some historical deja vu in this latest move dating back 3 decades at my direction elements of the 82nd Airborne Division as well as key units of the United States air force are arriving today to take up defensive positions in saudi arabia i took this action to assist the Saudi Arabian government in the defense of its homeland operation Desert Shield back then protecting these to the of the region and the worlds oil markets and supply lines was one key factor behalf. Im intervention but much has changed in 3 decades the u. S. Is now the Worlds Biggest Oil producer protecting gulf oil exports just isnt a priority anymore neither is being in the middle of a war between riyadh and tehran the United States is pursuing its own interests and that is to control the floyds flow of oil to the world and that means providing oil to its friends and denying oil to its enemies weve seen the United States embargo oil to play countries like syria the sale of oil from iran sudan libya many other places this is about the United States control over the most important commodity in the world that keeps industry going keeps country standing on their feet and domestic appetite for sending the boys to a place of sand and death is weak according to a recent poll just 13 percent would support a military intervention to protect the saudis adding a 2nd or 3rd party into that kind of tense scenario doesnt necessarily deescalate things if anything it escalates things even further so we get into another war like afghanistan or iraq and get stuck over there for another 1015 years we think iraq was bad iran to be 100000 times worse and we would absolutely destroy there i just think we should be less involved in other World Affairs no desire for conflict with iran this seems to be a war that neither side wants or at least says they want yet still seem to be on a collision course we have made it very clear that we dont want war we have made it very clear that we dont want escalation im making a statement that we dont want war we dont want to engage in a military confrontation america 1st has been trumps mantra since before his Election Campaign ending costly conflicts no more world policeman with analysts warning of the devastating costs of a war with iran the u. S. Stands at a crossroads just how high a price are they willing to. Paid to meet their objectives the u. S. As we know is now the worlds Number One Oil producer fracking has changed the nature of Oil Production to in the us and there is an overhead in the oil market so Many Americans are saying why are we interested in the gulf we dont need saudi oil but you know if the less said the fact of the matter is that oil is not just a product it is leverage over the International Community is geostrategic lee important ever since world war 2 the United States has wanted to control energy in the world so the United States is very loath to leave the gulf even though it doesnt actually need the oil itself. In new allegation against the donald trump is adding fuel to impeachment efforts by us democrats it is based on reports the president pressured his ukrainian counterpart to investigate possible corruption involving 2020 hopeful joe biden have been very reluctant to go down the path of impeachment but if the president is essentially trying to browbeat a foreign leader into doing something illicit then that may be the only remedy by failing to act congress is complicit in trumps latest attempt to solicit foreign interference to aid him in the us elections do your constitutional duty and impeach the president at this point a bigger National Scandal isnt the president s low breaking behavior it is the democratic participation usal to impeach him for it on sunday trump denied any misconduct over discussing biden in a phone call with president vladimir selenski he also accused the former Vice President of corruption tied to his sons Business Activities in ukraine a phone conversation has come to light after whistleblower claimed that trump solicited help from a foreign leader arties oscar taylor comments. Youve got to give it to the democrats theyre hard working bunt especially when somethings related to the biggest pet peeve kalu said but with all attempts over the past 3 years to push trump out of the white house havent for a bit flat new rumors have put the fire back in their bellies complain about President Trump it involves ukraine troubling promise president may have made to a foreign leader years ago 1st got in office were also nervous the dont stop with some sort of sleeper agent who was going to sell america out to a foreign power behind our backs. Well Throwback Thursday the wall into multiple reports of potentially illegal activity new allegations of attempted foreign collusion the Washington Post reported that back in july trump and the newly elected want to miss it and how did a little chat in which trump asked his ukrainian counterpart to investigate former Vice President joe biden and apparently top level whistleblower leaked that trump unethically said hed be generous with billions worth of American Military and intelligence aid if selenski was cooperative whistleblower is under what i can only imagine must be the most. Intense pressure sharing anything that is truly sensitive and endangers our National Security world or trouble sounds to see but then things took a slightly disappointing turn the Washington Post sort of backtracked and admitted that well actually they might have jumped the gun just to listen. One source familiar with the contents of the phone call so the trim did not raise the issue of American Military and intelligence aid that the administration was at the time withholding from ukraine indicating that there may not been an explicit quid pro quo expressed in that conversation but for the desperate damns even the with of the scandal was enough reports of a reliable whistleblower complaint regarding the president S Communications with a foreign leader brings grief urgent concerns about our National Security when you have the president call him in from other countries and whistleblowers are talking about compromising who he has deemed a political enemy this is serious this is very very serious and we have to investigate it this is all in the spirit of pursuing justice and protecting the American People from shady political dealings so probably a bit awkward that trump was gunning for an investigation into how a bomb as a right hand man biden had pushed for a top ukrainian prosecutor to be fired but hey its probably just a coincidence that the prosecutor was leading a corruption investigation into a Natural Gas Company that bidens son was linked to biden bragging that he basically blackmailed x. President Petro Poroshenko into firing the guy isnt that convincing is what i said you know i get the 1000000000 im going to be leaving iraq i think it was about 6 hours i looked as im leaving in 6 hours and the prosecutor is not fired youre not getting the money or son of a. Foreigner no not biden surely not he looks so good in those shorts back in the 60s he had such a lovable bromance with obama he cant be shady i love joe biden but there is still so much good in this country and joe biden i think represents that the democrats will see him as the best choice voters in the battleground state of wisconsin say they favor by never President Trump everyone loves your by if youll trump because an elusive phone call from a secret source reported in a classified document leaked in an article but that corrected itself would be declared hard evidence and bring the year. Democrats knocking at your door but if youre the only candidate your party has mustered up that even stands a chance of getting the vote of the American People in 2020 so you get something thats up for interpretation and turning a blind eye wow no harm no foul this is a bomb that basically joe biden has set off himself thats going to i think in the end push him perhaps out of contention it seems very much that the democrats like to shift Public Opinion away from their misconduct by alleging misconduct of trump and it fools. A large number of people who are not deep divers into details but its certainly not fooling me and its not full and i think many other pundits around the world who look at this and say the democrats are just deceiving themselves at this point they opened this can of worms trump didnt bring it up 1st they brought it up now that people have brought it back up there are serious questions about what was going on in ukraine i would argue from 2004 forward. Involving corrupt elements of both Political Parties inside our country and now the democrats are brought this up again i believe has a megaphone with his twitter account and were going to get to the bottom of what was really going on in the changing nature of u. S. Ukraine and russia relations going to 2004 forward or maybe even further back than that. Representatives of the taliban have met chinas envoy to afghanistan meeting in beijing they discussed the failure of the terror groups peace talks with the u. S. And the trump ended talks this month after a u. S. Soldier was killed in a Taliban Attack in kabul with hopes for peace fading again archies parsley or visited an afghan refugee camp in pakistan where people are desperate to return home. Im here in an afghan refugee camp in the pakistani capital islamabad more than a 1000 families called us home and there was a small percentage of the more than 1000000 afghan refugees who have moved to pakistan in the past 4 decades now they keenly watching developments across the border with the american President Donald Trump recently announcing that he is withdrawing from secret talks with the taliban and russia stepping up to the mark for People Living here what happens in those talks has a direct impact on their lives im going to meet them on khan family to see how they feel about things go and we came here from afghanistan and we dont have a stable income sometimes and sometimes we dont only our is keeping us alive. Were happy here in afghanistan we had no land in the house we didnt see bread and butter for years. We came here to work because the situation in afghanistan is too bad and its too difficult to live there we are poor people and we have no limbs we have only god well you know of course we want our children to be well educated and to attend good schools our family runs a store the market would earn hardly anything im suffering from here the titles but i dont have enough money to buy medicine as you can see they dont have very much its 10 people who live here in 3 mad rooms and they survive by selling fruits and vegetables on the sides of the road shaheen is one of the Community Leaders so he how would you say the pakistani government treats afghan refugees afghan refugees live slightly better here than its hard but we dont have full rights we want to have the same rights as pakistanis now after he gets a driving license or a car we want peace in afghanistan and we will be very happy to be able to return to our country the pakistani Prime Minister in one can in an interview i did with him said that pakistan is willing to do whatever it needs to do to make sure that the talks in afghanistan work america however needs to send its soldiers. The americans. Will have to of course leave afghanistan and i think president tom wants the u. S. Soldiers to leave understand this is not a lot more than pakistan can do than what it is already doing which is urging the. Only who would it has influence to sit down and talk to the americans which was to have done and also talk to the of one government which they havent done as yet for the more than 1000000 afghan refugees in pakistan they dont have much but the belief that one day they will return home is something making to. R. T. Islamabad. Filmmaker is being sued by participants in a documentary over his claims about korean sex slaves in world war 2 they were not sex slaves they were prostitutes. So it was screaming or action to deceive korean women to the station. At least one of the experts quoted in the film denies that the women were forced into slavery however the filmmaker. Do you think there are other motives for their loss. Its not really top officials who are launching the lawsuit its more these kind of people in my film noir interview that are doing the lawsuit in i guess what lies behind it is really them trying to silence the film and you know change the narrative of the comptroller main issue to their narrative to come from an issue that has always been a very contentious issue between korea and japan and some people actually think its the most contentious issue between the 2 countries and through my own research i realize that you know my korean friends and japanese friends didnt know certain information i thought if i made a film i could possibly fill in this gap in information and bring more context in culturally both sides would you know be able to talk about this more productively after the film the comfort women issue is very taboo in japan and surprisingly a lot of people like the film i noticed a lot of people who dont like the film are people who havent seen the film. The phrase comfort women is a euphemism for girls forced into sex slave slavery by japanese soldiers in occupied territories that leads to 200000 young women were made to work in military brothels victim came across Southeast Asia with most from korea and the japanese government issued a statement on the issue in 1903. Tokyo admitted responsibility for the sexual coercion of women and apologized in 2015 japan and south korea agreed on a deal there which tokyo paid more than 8000000. 00 for the victims fund but so has since dissolved that fund saying the issue has not been settled and victims were not consulted the filmmaker says that censoring his film would violate free speach. Well i think its definitely a case of freedom of expression and i think my film if it gets silenced or taken down or you know if they prevent bigger distribution then this is another you know. Expression in japan and its these little tiny digs at freedom of expression that make it really hard for the media and people in general to talk about these issues and so it just becomes one of these things where the powerful people get to say what they want to say about the issue and then the people who have an opposing opinion cant say anything either those are from well be back with headlines in 33 minutes stay with us this is our.
