Victims of oppression in sudan filed a complaint against the major french banks saying it was complicit in human rights abuse. This hour welcome to the program 1st for you the latest in the donald trump impeachment inquiry 1st now a prominent critic of the us president democrat adam schiff has offered an explosive interpretation of trumps now infamous ukraine phone call the ongoing impeachment investigation picks up steam President Trump struck back accusing schiff of making up his version of the conversation. When you to make up dirt on my political opponent understand lots of it on this and on that theres a lot of talk about biden son and a lot of people want to find out about that so whatever you can do would be great. Im going to put you in touch with attorney general United States my attorney general bill barr hes got the whole weight of the american Law Enforcement. Behind him i am also going to have attorney general and we will get to the bottom of it. And by the way dont call me again ill call you when youve done what i asked whenever you would like to come to the white house feel free to call give us a date and well work that out and i look forward to seeing you. I was on tuesday that the house of representatives loans to form an impeachment inquiry into trump over alleged attempts by the u. S. President to force his ukrainian counterpart to investigate hunter biden the son of joe biden his potential 2020 democratic rival legal a media analyst llano believes adam shift has played fast and loose with the facts when presenting concocted details of the phone call. It is extremely duplicitous it is extremely misleading and very troublesome for the way adam schiff came about and basically provided a parody a unique way of looking at it and he was reading what people thought was actual transcript provisions actual statements made sentences a conversation and then later on when pressed he says well i was being. A bit loose with this i was giving you about kind of a perhaps a a parody a kind of a satirical look well that satirical look is absolutely 1st of all side necessary but it was most problematic and the cause of many many people being very very angry with what he did it was on call for duplicitous misleading and wrong on another Development Americas special envoy to ukraine could vulcans question that the phone call scandal and theres still the corruption allegations circulating about joe biden and his son some of which have been dismissed as a Conspiracy Theory by the Mainstream Media and youre trying to look whether theyre being a bit too quick to write off the story. So the reason why the president is after the man whos most likely to challenge him next year is nothing but a conspiracy so many voices are saying just that President Trump is again insisting today that reporters should dig into a Conspiracy Theory involving Biden Ukraine and a ukrainian prosecutor promoting without evidence the dubious narrative that biden used the office of the Vice President to advance and protect his sons interests as dig into these unproven claims that trump is making about the former Vice President we cannot have a debate about a Conspiracy Theory but just how much does the public in america know about the case of a Ukrainian Energy company a few years ago the root of all the stir the public deserves to be aware and make up their own. Conspiracy or proper investigation material so joe bidens son hunter was on the board of directors at bristol mr biden seen here as Vice President was washingtons point man with kiev at the time meanwhile this man victor sulkin the prosecutor general there was in charge of investigating barista ma and its founder for Economic Crimes he eventually lost his job well just have a look at how Frank Joe Biden was about his involvement i said you not getting a 1000000000 im going to leave in a year i think it was about 6 hours i looked as if we do 6 hours if the prosecutor is not fired youre not getting the money oh son of a. Fighter jets guess what happened later after the new prosecutor came in his office eventually gave the company a free pass obviously though we cannot connect any dots here but just so you know the fired ukraine official no matter how corrupt he ended up being was confident about why he got kicked out heres a quote from his affidavit the truth is that i was forced out because i was leading a wide ranging corruption probe into the recent holdings of Natural Gas Firm active in ukraine and joe biden son hunter biden anyway let me move on with a few more relevant findings by a journalist from the hill who studied a bunch of emails and Ukrainian Government memo. It turns out the folks from a us p. R. Firm that represented breasts were really eager to get a meeting with the most senior prosecutors in kiev one a male claimed to have been sent by Ukrainian Embassy diplomat to one of the people from the firm said this with regards to the missing some its just that you wait until the next week when the reason expected the governments. Its been revealed that on the same day prosecutors shocking was shown the door the top guys of the p. R. Team once again got an. Touch with kiev it only took them several days to get a meeting with the new acting prosecutor general his memo suggests the folks that help bristol raise the changes at the Prosecutors Office the visiting side was surprised by the info and said the u. S. State department had completely different information describing the failure of the reforms at the Prosecutors Office but then they changed their mind and realized u. S. Officials were misinformed they also promise to hook up ukraines incoming Law Enforcement officials with ties to the state department and help organize a trip to the u. S. They informed me that they would seek to facilitate my visit to the u. S. To pass on the correct information to state department officials. After this man you were saying co officially took over from the acting prosecutor general step by step all proceedings against the firm where hunter biden had one of the top jobs began to vanish now back to mr biden seeing here and someone who used to meet him quite often as the head of ukraine according to the fired prosecutors testimony the president was pushing too on several occasions president poroshenko asked me to consider the possibility of winding down the investigative actions in respect of this company but i refused to close this investigation now where that would lead experts in conspiracy tagging or the us public as a whole i have no clue. As the final half hour of voting in afghanistans president ial election which has been the target of multiple terror attacks at least 5 blasts and at least 3 missile attacks of rock to different parts of the country injuring around 40 and killing at least 3 people unconfirmed reports say though that could have been as many as 20 explosions taliban militants are reportedly behind some of the attacks and its the 4th election after the u. S. Of forcibly remove the taliban from power in 2001 and the 1st since donald trump halted peace talks with the Group Earlier this month while the 9000000 people are registered to vote in this election however the latest survey suggests that only 20 percent of Afghan People believe it will be free and. The Afghan Government control slightly more than half the country the rest is either under the taliban or contested there are about 5000 polling stations open right now down from the more than 7000 which were initially planned hundreds of them a situation to in dangerous areas afghan based journalist sultan phasey brought us the latest on the election. Today morning the elections kicked off however the turnout is very low in many parts of the country we have heard more than 20 blasts took place in the capital kabul in south or in kandahar province as well as in Logar Province and crudest province the taliban are really no warrant to disrupt the process but you know despite all these threats spite all these insecurity the process hasnt which is a very big damage or a very big lets say obstacle to prevent you know the whole process but we could say that you know so far we have heard that 3 big attacks have been thwarted by the Government Forces because the Afghan Government announced more than 100000 Afghan Security forces are deployed to secure the process still at the turnout overall turnout shows that people are scared off the going to the polling stations doing good security here you busy with. The. Busy to. Do that trying to see voters and for these laws no one should be afraid of anyone who should vote for president because it is their right to vote the security of the right. To live with the suspicion that the security is good right now were voting to have a democratic country on land should be peaceful and are people should be happy its more of a psychological wall of war fear because we have heard from there from pakistan that our fatwa was he should. Address saying the Afghan People who want to try to you know vote so we we have to wait and see tell the day. Is over because the afghan officials are waiting. Devoting a process to end and declare they are chief of mens or lets say their you know the criticism that there has been address in the political process also in kabul a Research Analyst of the center for conflict and peace studies told us about the complexity of this particular election. The security is high or low it in we could see a lot of security measures in checkpoints along the way particularly inside kabul so i think it made it difficult for the taliban or any other groups to carry out attacks in inside kabul and the number of attacks that we have we have seen so far i think people were expecting more but it appears that the is a lot more security than expected which is making it difficult for for the taliban and other groups to carry to target the polling stations in the waters but nonetheless. Having said that despite all the security. The turnout appears to be extremely no thats because people are already afraid that there will be more more of more attacks in the 1st place a lot of people did not expect the elections to happen because of the peace talks that were going on in but eventually they were suspended by President Trump one of the key reasons for the taliban to not negotiate with one government is president only because in 2014 before the elections he made promises to them but once he took power. That he could not fulfill those promises so i think thats a likely scenario where interim government will be created. After the election crisis come in so i think that would be the only solution in if you look at the reports that are coming that a Peace Process is going to start in a week it makes more sense. Mass rallies demanding action over climate changes be held across canada with over 300000. 00 marching in montreal a load team climate activists crediting berger and canadian Prime MinisterJustin Trudeau also join the rally during a private meeting between him to do more to save the environment. Meanwhile an undercover investigations found that Canadian Companies have been sending Plastic Waste overseas in. And of recycling at home canada exported more than 10000 tonnes of it to malaysia in 2018 and its claim that this is led to a drastic increase in the number of illegal processing plants there. Inside this factory we see workers exposed to potentially toxic fumes without proper protection. Whoever in this sense there are ways to malaysia ways where those plastic weighs a lot of ways we will send it back and we will fight back even though we are a small country we cannot be bullied by a developed countries we asked people at the climate march in montreal whether they were aware of whats happening with canadas waste you know what happened months ago you said no. I know pointing to a recent c. D. C. Report a lot of this plastic containers been shipped to malaysia where in india is rated i just wanted to get your response to that how you felt was that if youre serious if you ashamed if you wish to cure. Dishes in a sense im sorry to hear that i believe and i. Kept up with what you know its just. Its terrible for Civil Servants shockey to say. Oh we should do something about it wrong. You should be doing your witnesses well i would think this is good that you could do a lot of things with respect to closeness to do with how shes going to do a lot of things which i think these things should be things here starts of this like really sit here sort of send it over their words this city but you have one of the campaigners there the philippines has experienced a similar problems to malaysia in recent years but president attests i put an end to the violations and sent tons of the rubbish back to canada and other countries as well physicist and environmental scientist in iraq or says the canadian politicians only Pay Lip Service to environmental concerns. True or not such a hypocrite he would not be marching in montreal he would be making an announcement that theyre going to ban this kind of moral and improper behavior in the world which is to export your talks of garbage most canadians do diligently recycle and they participate in the in that recycling programs and they assume that their cities and governments are you know following how Companies Collect and store and recycle this material they cant imagine or they most canadians wouldnt wouldnt think that these companies are actually selling the materials off to distant lands to to the developing world countries its mass hypocrisy is what were seeing now among our canadian politicians they dont do the real things that they have the power to do instead they would prefer to do token gestures like walk in this march. This is still ahead a weight loss pill which is reportedly behind as many as 2000 deaths since the drug make a face a landmark trial and for the next story when we come back. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy people on sunday shouldnt let it be an arms race in. Very Dramatic Development only and. I dont see how that strategy will be successful very ok to kill or die time to sit down and talk. Through. To play just one game so then. If somebody comes and because im a big able and they dont know what to do with it you know their best hope is to temporize to continue until the next American Election if drop is our to decide over relief because the democrats are better disposed towards the Islamic Republic so you know maybe we can go back to the old james. Quietly give you consistent as i quietly you believe in question us. More of a weekend news now to Health Scandal thats rocked france a drug maker there is on trial over a weight loss pill which some think may have killed as many as 2000 people the drug in question is called mediator it was introduced in 1986 for diabetics who were trying to lose weight france banned it 10 years ago but that was long after other European Countries of officials claim it could be a contributing factor in the deaths of patients those who survived say their lives have been ruined and they stole my life i had just retired and thought i was going to begin a new life but they cant leave my house now i can see anyone i get tired all the time savvy me that it was so you poison the lucky ones like me condemned to a slow death my life is ruined the truth was hidden from the patients a lie i was created thats why there are doctors pharmacologists and officials that are being accused of conflicts of interest we expect exemplary sanctions because whats at stake is not only what survey did its also about prevention because we cannot say today that these practices do not exist i refresh some of the 1st doctor who linked the deaths with mediator she told us why this trial is so important. Dont you suppose civic we have been waiting for this trial for many years because it has been announced and then it was always being delayed now im thinking about the victims some of them are not with us and one that they died without making it to the end of this trial it makes me feel so sorry and upset that today the trial got in the way we see a very carefully crafted sequence of bringing the case to a tough indictment and a spreadsheet totally revealing the level of the tragedy more than 3700. 00 people have a right to compensation so whats the Current Situation and thinking well its alleged that the pill caused High Pressure in vessels that supply blood to the lungs which in turn delivers it to the left atrium of the heart causing a variety of problems but its now reported that some of the deaths were the result of Heart Failure a cardiac arrest or noise for the drug makers says though that the firm did not know about the side effects resulting in problems are in fresh on again believe the french people today have little trust in medical companies and thats dangerous. Many scientific publications proved the toxicity which was just enough to be discovered that alone would be enough not to buy this lie from severe the criminal investigation in the victims interests is now under way but it is also in our interests it benefit society to show that the pharmaceutical companies crimes if they are recognized this crimes by the 4th one go unpunished but today we french people want to trust any medication its necessary to understand what happened with the mistake by the health care regulators was and how the lab was cheating and we have to learn from that and everybody must remember the. Victims of oppression in sudan are accusing a major french bank of complicity in human rights abuses in the country b m p party work to sudans de facto central bank during a period when widespread Rights Violations by the regime were being carried out in the country correspondent takes a look at the accusations. Charges. And genocide linked to the conflict in Sudans Darfur region have long been made against the countrys former president bashir but now an alliance of human rights organizations waltzed to broaden the responsibility to include french bank b. M. P. We call on the french authorities to promptly open an investigation to determine whether b. N. P. Is criminally responsible for its dealings with sudan 2 out of knowing plaintiffs have waived their right to remain anonymous they are my son an activist who spoke out against the government he was injured during an attack on his village in darfur later arrested and beaten and he says he saw close relatives shot and killed the 2nd is how a silly who was kidnapped by jun 2 we force is a boil to the foremost Sudanese Government she was shot tortured and so 100 family members. Executed so why did they hold the bank responsible for what has happened to them behind the greatest crimes in human Rights Violations that there is always money by granting the sudanese regime access to International Money markets b. N. P. Power allow the government to function pay its staff military and Security Forces make purchases abroad all while sudan was a pariah on the International Scene for planning and committing crimes in darfur and the crimes were horrific widespread human Rights Violations between 20022008 led to the deaths of more than 300000. 00 sudanese civilians b. M. P. Power would to sudans defacto central bank giving the former government access to International Money markets thats according to the u. S. Department of justice the complainants say that despite substantial evidence of such crimes they have largely gone on punished we want to make the voices of sudanese victims heard through this complaint to this day they have been denied the possibility of justice whether in sudan before the International Criminal court or in the u. S. That reference to the u. S. Relates to a previous case against b. M. P. Past about the violation of u. S. Sanctions partly for its dealings with sudan back in 2014 the banks settled that case for a record 8900000000. 00 following so why did the money end was it used to compensate the victims who had been identified and submitted their testimonies quite simply. Before these testimonies could be taken into account the u. S. Congress passed a law the diverted the b. N. P. Progress fine to american victims of terrorism leaving the sudanese and other victims without any form of redress for the harm they suffered and which the bank is believed to have played a. Rolle so with the money in the pockets of the americans and the sudanese victims now making another attempt to receive restitution this time here in france thats because its laws allow for corporations to be prosecuted if theyve played a role in crimes committed brought r. T. Asked to be in for a statement it is yet to respond to that request the paris tribunal must now decide if this new complaint warrants a criminal investigation into b. M. P. Power involvement any case though is likely to prove complex and lengthy meaning the victims still have a long way to go before they may feel that theyve received any justice. Otty paris the french lawyer familiar with the case thinks the bank will get off lightly with nothing more than a fine tart to see if youre going to get any sort of justice because the judge is going to have a look review the case and hes going to hes going to tell the people to come is going to hear them the lawyer is going to submit all the evidence is they have but lets say were in france and hes one of the biggest bank in the world and the biggest bank in france in a criminal case. Or the court is not going to. The bank and tell the bank to close whats going to happen at the end its going to be a fine. Some kind of big fine the for the for the for the 9 so then is going to be its going to be a long long process. Never find the real truth so its going to be in agreement between these people and.
