To a very warm welcome to you youre watching r. T. International with me nikki allen where we start with news from bolivia where thousands of people are marching in the capital on the parts refusing to accept the resignation of former leader even raul as demonstrators have clashed with police who responded with tear gas. The opposition senator has now taken over as interim president and marlas has fled to mexico along with many of his Party Members he removed himself from office on monday after weeks of violence triggered by claims his election victory was rigged rollos also said he stepped down to end any persecution of his allies describing events as a coup roylance looting and vandalism followed after he quit and some of his supporters and now saying they fear for their lives. Are those i dont like but they have carried out a coup detat against as as of last night we are living like a dictatorship times they are hunting our leaders they are hunting its very likely that they will see me and want my head to. The divisions are caused by reset the persecutor as bolivia and its those from alto they discriminate against us because we come from alto in the past to discriminate against those who wear skirts and we want to allow it. After an american expert Daniel Schorr has told is that there is no question this is a coup and that interim president has no legitimate claim to power. Senator. Has absolutely no right to declare her so president this is another Program Just Like where you go so we are seeing a replaying war what occurred in venezuela of course of the late trump in washington into one of their stooges in power no question this is a coup because it was more out of the war and 47 percent openly and thats all well over 600000 votes or 10 percent more they may say but of course another term for it will walk out of this would be to the detriment of the chance of National Companies to the proponents of neo liberalism so they staged a classic military coup. Their people. Come out to us in the hands of the into power so that they. Resume control who believe youre. Janjaweed summit of the worlds 5 major emerging economies is now taking place in brazil russian president Vladimir Putin has arrived in brasilia with only it is ready to get down to business the brics group represents over 3000000000 people worldwide and seek to develop economic and political cooperation. The day has been marked by protests after support of the venezuelan Opposition Leader one kwaito earlier storms like countrys embassy in brasilia from my memory of emotional. Im mad to men as well embassy here in the city of brazil we are in dayton i can tell you that the situation here on the ground is quite boring just a while ago there was a fight between the supporters off and as well as legitimate president Nicolas Maduro and those who own the site of the countrys selfproclaimed leader one who i dont and before that some of these supposed to us managed to storm the building and get inside and right now we are receiving contradictory reports on who is in fact in charge of the embassy right now and the most interesting and important thing is that the local Police Although there are many officers here on the ground looting military Police Special forces but basically they have no alternative theory because officially were still recognizes mystic why do as many as well as legitimate leader and therefore support he support is here and this is by the way the Biggest Challenges for brics countries and a big division for us for them as their positions on whats going on in caracas differ so much that. Brazil has just issued a note recognizing one why do as venezuelan president. Have you thought was a mistake why does came to a square raceys eyes to heaven and appealing to god declared himself the president ok but god didnt tell us his response to that appeal therefore i think we need to come back to us and be guided by democratic procedures and rules trying to firmly oppose the principle of noninterference in the Eternal Affairs of other countries and maintains that the affairs of venezuela must be chosen and decided by its people the brazilian president mr bell Sonora Police said on his Facebook Page that he does not support the storm of the embassy here and he hopes that the situation on the ground will get back to normal so we make spec that these will be hailed soon but this news that but israel is not the only one believing their resignation of elected president there is seen by some. Breeks Member States has officially get to most democratic given process while others including russia say this is simply quit tom so these topics hot topics are expected to be discussed by others on brinks later today well keep you updated on foreigners but all in all i have to say that made me that despite all those disagreements between brazil russia china india and south africa all in all the influence of these issues International Group is for the growth and it is becoming even more at a time when we miss the decline of so many ah there are International Groups of such kind take for example apec its recent summit was cancelled last 1000000 due to situation in chile understandably but we do not hear any information about new day old location set up no one is talking about that right now. As the on leaders instead of going to the meetings prefer to send their foreign minister is an even g 7 last time was not able to agree on anything and issue a joint communique so in this situation some say that drinks is rising and growing and probably we mean quest for a bigger role in global Decision Making and we expect many interesting meetings and comments later on when state. Fairs of big brother watching your every move is confined to works of fiction but now privacy concerns are being raised again with a federal inquiry into the us of a googles latest efforts to collect and share data the tech giant says its been harvesting puzzler information on the health of millions of americans and sending it to a medical care provider his own quarter with more. It wasnt too long ago that a person who thought he was being watched all the time might have been written off as a bit delusional but nowadays hed be living in reality take google its been secretly working with one of the Worlds LargestHealth Care Nonprofits to gather tens of millions of americans medical records the newly revealed initiative is called project nightingale and google claims theres no fell play to be clear under this arrangement ascensions data cannot be used for any other purpose than for providing the services refer in under the agreement and patient data cannot and will not be combined with any Google Consumer data google says the project is just helping Health Care Organizations improve the experience they provide but the companys going about its business without any of these peoples consent whats even more unsettling is that its completely legal a lot of tribulations and laws would need refreshing if you like to call it refreshing because of amount of Data Collected in different ways we are surrounded by more and more devices every day so a lot flows in the peculations needs to be revisited when it comes to companies snooping around their users information google is far from the only one i phone users dont know their app activity is being sent to advertisers by default that doesnt exactly seem to correspond with apples slogan. You can of course opt out but apple says youll see the same amount of ads and they just wont be as interesting but what about Cambridge Analytic 50000000 facebook profiles had their information harvested by means of a seemingly harmless app with special permission from facebook they had. Apps on facebook that were given special permission to harvest data not from just the person who uses the opera joins the army but also it would then go into their entire Front Network and pull out all of the friends data as well and thats just the tip of the iceberg right now thousands of apps are accessing the data of millions of facebook profiles instagram is using peoples personal information for basically anything it wants the list goes on and on maybe those crazy people were right after all. The leaders of turkey and the u. S. Have just given a press conference after their meeting in the white house a key focus was on the recent Turkish Operation against u. S. Sponsored Kurdish Forces in Northern Syria which went ahead despite warnings from washington and weve had a great relationship with the kurds and we fought with them very successfully against isis we fought together we had we had great generals and we have great equipment and it certainly helped a lot but we were very very successful is the 1st we have to make it this is efficient. As we have no problems with the current. We are not police with terrorists because. Terrorists that are coming out of. Would. Likely in one. Of the terrorist organizations because it. Is following the talks for us caleb good to see you could you tell us more about that meeting between trumpeted one and the may just sticking points. Absolutely now both turkey and the United States have some major points of disagreement when it comes to the issue of syria the kurds the arms trade and relations with russia but the world is wondering if the United States will be able to continue and to basically reach a point of agreement with its nato allies and now folks will recall how the United States has long maintained that it can have a Good Relationship with both the kurds and turkey but thats a balancing act that hasnt always gone so well folks will recall the letter that donald trump wrote to president era want of turkey after the offensive was launched against the kurds in syria. For you dont want to be responsible for slaughtering thousands of people and then dont want to be responsible for destroying the turkish economy and i will dont be a tough guy dont be a fool i will call you later now another pretty strong point of disagreement is the s 400. 00 Missile System now essentially the turkish leader is is you know in the process of purchasing this Missile System that the United States says that thats simply unacceptable they say that it is simply unacceptable for a nato member to edge closer to moscow this is what weve heard turkeys acquisition of sophisticated Russian Military equipment such as the s 400 creates some very serious challenges for us and we are talking about it constantly we talked about it today were talking about it in the future hopefully will be able to resolve that situation now following the meeting between trump an arrow on a phone call between the turkish leader and the russian president has been scheduled now interestingly though trump claims there has never really been any doubt about the friendship between the United States and turkey. The president and i have been weve been very good friends weve been friends for a long time almost from day one. Now its quite difficult to see how trump has overlooked some rather large disagreements and incidents lets review it had a great relationship and we will make it even better america i told you many times you want to side with us all terrorist organizations turkey. They have not proven to be a good friend approaching us with this kind of threatening language will not benefit anyone. All in turkey and as you know we doubled up the tariffs on steel and aluminum the city 1st become a Strategic Partner then you shoot your partner in the foot i just spoke to president earlier one of turkey were doing very very well with turkey. Kind of thank you for those days as i thought hes capable been speaking to his life new york. What he would have for max abrams associate professor of Public Policy at Northeastern University he believes the u. S. Is unlikely to make any concessions to turkey on syria. Surely trott is not going to reverse himself in terms of the fact that we are seeing turkish involvement in jordan syria or turkey instead i think that there will be some strong pressure on a long car to rein in the rubble force lives there and hes using because those are sort of he is fighting proxy militia regions on the ground who are more sort of front of or for the civilian targets so far so although the pressure is very very far on both you i mean going to be part of your all be very curious that the press conference is actually going on concurrently and of course the president is going to try and say oh youve got something important ones who cheat flarm i think trump is going to tar on the possibly all the far the increased financial ties business relations between our 2 countries out of but only war as far i dont really for see any concrete win out of this meeting. 3 people have been injured while performing at a festival in saudi arabia after being stopped by a man who rushed on to the stage the attack was filmed by a member of the audience which you might find disturbing to watch now the 2 men and a woman who were attacks of danger minor injuries according to state media the attacker has been identified as a 33 year old a yemeni man he was immediately apprehended the motive so far has it is unknown it happened at the King Abdullah parking riyadh which is staging a 2 month entertainment festival and recent years saudi arabias monarchy has been gradually loosening some of the countrys strict religious laws the festival is seen as part of those liberalizing reforms that the changes include allowing greater freedom for saudi women and encouraging tourists from abroad with tourist visas recently introduced. Well despite those reforms a recent video highlighted the stark difference between saudi and western values it was made by the Security Services and warned citizens to avoid the dangers of socalled extremism including feminism promised sexuality and atheism the video has since been pulled but the authorities saying it contains mistakes political and social commentator gave us his take on the situation in saudi arabia. I think saudi arabia are going to have to be very realistic and more realistic about this socalled liberalization agenda if you going to be softening the borders letting people in apparently foreigners can now get a visa within 7 minutes you need to know who youre letting into the country and how will be acting how theyll be behaving im not sure theyre quite ready and it looks like theyre trying to run before they can walk if your heart is a center of consciousness as islam states it is then you have to start within the individual person just having thin veneers of policies where you give the imprimatur of human rights of liberalization of feminism but secretly you have a deep state which is running Counter Culture in against those things and committing massacres and Human Rights Violations overseas as well as domestically theyre going to have to marry these things together it has to be genuine it cant just be in name only and i think saudi arabia is seen often as not the archetype or model for muslim enlightenment in the middle east or around the world and they need to look at more progressive models. If you look at some other news making headlines around the world now the italian city of venice has been hit by its worst flooding in over half a century reports say at least 2 people have died now around 85 percent of the city is under water bringing the water level that is highest since 1966.

At that choose 3 nights quote random and indiscriminate violence against innocent people had brought the city to the verge of total collapse protesters claimed they are responding to an excessive use of force by police. The life and work of a cofounder of the Controversial White House this rescue group in syria has come under scrutiny since his recent death in istanbul in fact james limos who are missouris rookie period profile has undergone something of a rewrite admitting anything detrimental to the material was a former British Army Soldier he was recently accused by moscow of being a former agent of m i 6 the u. K. s Foreign Intelligence Service and the british media has been quick to point the finger at the kremlin over his death or our Senior CorrespondentBrian Garrity of x. Examines what lies behind the edited we keep pedia page. A tragic death for a man who made a living on tragedy james limits syria spent his life doing what he believed in which was remarkably similar to that what the British Foreign office and nato believe it almost point for point so naturally before anyone even knows how many bones were broken in his body after he fell from his apartment balcony that they dogpile russia its like an evolved limbic system fight flight or blame russia did russia kill white how much founder james the mysterious cofounder of White Helmets found dead days after russia claimed he was a spy limits crowding achievement was undoubtedly the creation of the White Helmets politically charged rescuers who went to Battle Alongside islamist terrorists even al qaeda is winning in syria called them brothers you know the phrase you want to know how a man lived his life look at who his friends were and they were relentless progovernment propagandists bent on censoring everything they dont agree with 133612 edits to wikipedia have been made in the name of philip cross over 14 years thats over 30 edits per day 7 days a week and i do not use that figuratively wiki pedia edits the times and if you plot them the time card to fill it crosses wikipedia activity is astonishing if it is one individual before a day has passed since limits series death his friends began scrubbing his wiki pedia page the history of his life of all controversy white washing his biography philip cross the busy bee that he is really went to town making james as we keep pedia page all nice and pretty you read it now it was a st the times reported the dilemma syria was this subject of an intense black Propaganda Campaign for. Years my promise that activists and Russian Diplomats the New York Times reported that the group and there would be syria were the target of unfounded conspiracy theories of course a much more probable explanation is that philip cross is a group of individuals paid to further the interests of the British Government then malign anyone that criticizes it or its policies they have no problem smearing and degrading others yet philip or Phillips Ashar i see theyre fine with doing it to others but talking about them is a no no back in 2018 someone wrote an article about philip cross and for his troubles the article was deleted and the author was banned for life for this philip cross there because considerable effort to editing wiki pedia entries for world known british anti establishment journalists bloggers authors and academics philip cross may be a pseudonym for a group of like minded individuals acting in concert there are reasons teachers tell students never to use wikipedia as a source philip cross is one of those reasons the fact is that wiki pedia is not an Independence Organization its basically been set up by those who are very close links to western Intelligence Services there are attempts to manipulate it and to make it appear that certain things are true then theyre not and other things are not true when they are Phillip Krause who is a very very strange person in the sense that hes constantly changing wiki pedia articles about controversial figures and he seems to be working round the clock so its looks to me as if hes working some kind of intelligence a service and in any case he might not even be a real individual so one of the problems weve got with dealing with any information like this is that people are out there manipulating information in real time what r. T. We love to hear your thoughts on our stories they do get in touch by following us and theres no media anything in common theyre coming up a top of the hour my colleague sean thomas will be with you with a link. The tense situation in venezuela is still all over the news the problem in venezuela is not that socialism has been poorly implemented but that socialism has been faced only implement from the inside venezuela things are different were going to announce sanctions against petroleum to venezuela so as you. Have a son of a moment those who feel that empathy and political battle so on and the people who come to a moment of focus the whose story isnt new makes him cold in Henry Kissinger to tell on that it would not be tolerated that in latin america. An alternative economic and social system could take hold and therefore the policy would be to make the chilean economy scream so wants and making the economy of venezuela screed. To my the hardest to a dash was to care but it. Dhanush. The desire to make the bin. Laden or we keep. The same country because he must tell a feeling like us tell us your face your body has suddenly become one thing my mother but it had been a bunch who. Sent. Him on the hook in the move the whole thing as opposed to the funny thing with the quote this is the guy said come see. It all just so you dont have to lay on the young they have. Deiced so much smoke the soup. Is still so not a sin on. Me it simply isnt. The last icing coop individual become more. Important just not every deep to be good to see you. Walk out and see the last. Of the socalled individual supporters in this very. Strong belief. Society and the freedom of the individual. What i suggest is a call the reverse hunger games then reverse under our randomly pick 10. 00 to 15. 00 billionaires every year and strip them of everything to 0 and course im out there make it into the world of commerce and see if they can build it up to scratch again introduce risk back into the American Capital system because once you have a certain amount of money theres no more risk youre just clipping coupons for vanity and you have no stake in the game whatsoever. What politicians do. They put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president and you. Want to be rich. To go on to be pros thats what the 43 in the morning cant be good. Im interested always in the waters of our. Chloe and welcome to crossfire were all things are considered im Peter Lavelle or specter of socialism 30 years after the fall of the berlin wall socialism is now remarkably popular what explains this how to explain why so many successful and even privileged people look to socialism to solve social problems maybe its because liberalism itself is failing.
