Antidoping agency accuses the us of double standards after the Senate Passes a bill to jail those behind doping in sports except in american leagues are broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow. This is our Team International on sean thomas. Certainly glad had with us as we recap our weeks top stories with our Weekly Program right now. A french bill intended to protect the police, has sparked outrage and several days of rioting in paris. The new measure, criminalizes the filming of officers, if it is done with malicious intent. Now it has been passed by the National Assembly and will later go to the senate for approval. Holderness. As you can see, Police Vehicles are moving down and pushing the protesters down that the street protesters whove come, im convinced to Global Security lure to draw. 7 for real thats being discussed in the National Assembly on tuesday evening. This is a rule which includes an element which if cost could make it illegal for people to disseminate to the coolant and publish images of Police Officers. If there is intent to harm criminalizing, shoot all of the could lead to morning and after 45000 500. Thank you. Thank you for help. Ive seen women having their hay young and being abused to be grabbed by the head to be thrown to the floor by Police Officers, medics being hit by police battens. And in fact, as we were just at the metro station filming some of the violence against the protesters, we ourselves were forcibly chucked out by the police, my cameraman, who grabbed by offices while he was filming, while we were trying to do an interview and objected from not crowds that. 7 ok, the image is over, the police are protests, have been used time and time again, showing the violence thats been used that this law would essentially stop. Thats what unions say, they say that it is censorship. However, the government says this new is needed to protect Police Officers from the violence because while im talking about the police hitting protesters trying to move them around, we have also seen violence towards the police this evening. Weve seen bottles thrown into woods and fire as being lit. We have seen destruction here on the streets of paris with bus shelters being smashed in. So there is violence on both sides. And the government says this noor is needed to protect the police. Police unions say it doesnt go far enough and if it is a choice between freedom of the press and liberty, when it comes to showing these images to the security of their offices, they will side with the security of their offices every time the reality is it is been a brutal like with violence from both sides, but from where we have stood, the violence has been mainly coming from the police to watch protesters who for the most part, we havent witnessed them doing anything to well deserve some of the violence. Ive observed this evening, journalists and International Organizations have lashed out of the French Security bill. The u. N. Has called it a threat to freedom of expression. We discussed. The reforms with french journalist violence may be used within the framework of the law where there is so thick defense, or if the use is strictly necessary and proportionate. And but only only the possibility of filming freely without constraints gives these guarantees. But the rockets are out of this low that does not like the expression of Police Violence because he thinks that there is legitimate and illegitimate violence. I think in a nutshell, we can say that france is experiencing an authoritarian bonapartists, ridged as it has, unfortunately, often experienced in its past. Im sorry to say that journalism is the cornerstone of a healthy society. You wouldnt have if youre familiar with the case of alexander ben, allow the bodyguard of president mccall or you would have george floyd if people did not film those events. You would know. And if you dont know, you slip into dark areas in and that that article 2 of the 4, which is part of a, along with the body cause in a war is, is detrimental to journalism. Theres already c. C. T. V. Cameras everywhere. Theres people from the ever. Everybodys got a cell phone. You cannot stop people from filming switching gears now, an Australian Military inquiry has concluded that blood lust and come pet, excuse me, competition killing may have provoked a the countrys special forces to murder dozens of afghan civilians. Some of those horrific cases appear to have been part of an initiation ritual for new troops. There is credible information. The junior soldiers were required by their patrol commanders to shoot a prisoner in order to achieve the soldiers 1st kill in a practice that was known as bloody special forces inside, as pointed to a number of deeply concerning norms within Australian Special forces, including the shift from unacceptable behavior to war crimes the glorifying of these crimes as being a good soldier, competition, killing, and blood lust. The Afghan Foreign ministry has described the murders as unforgivable and called for justice to be served. But for many afghans already scarred by years of war and regular reports of war crimes by the us led coalition. The findings came as no surprise. Afghans were killed as if our blood was worthless. The foreign soldiers come here to serve their own interests, not to help us. An apology is not the solution. The Afghan Government must make sure that no foreign soldier can get away with killing afghans. Then there are console, just killed. Many afghans in the past and the u. S. Would condemn the actions of its soldiers, but then do nothing about it. Im sure the same will happen australia, because for them, one of their soldiers is worth a 1000000 afghans. Like now the australian Foreign Ministry has written a formal apology to kabul for the atrocities, but as are comments, such apologies tend not to result in any real action. 2 eggs, australia, and afghanistan, thousands of kilometers apart. One a very keen to help the other. We remind committed to assisting afghanistan in resisting it. Terrorism. Resisting the Taliban Forces providing in cooperation with other countries. I live all of the stability and to live the lives curity. As that youll country can build for itself a strong and prosperous and secure future. It took the australian Prime Minister a bit more than 13 hours to fly over to kabul to say all that a bit more than 13 years ago. By then, australian troops had already been engaged in the war torn country for several years, almost 20 years ago since the aussies got involved. Their number one military man has no other choice, but to say, sorry, i sincerely and unreservedly apologize for any wrongdoing. By a stray in soldiers. I say no choice because allegations of 39 civilian deaths at the hands of his Defense Force as a result of blood lust and competition. Killing deserve an apology or actually much more than that large parts of the military report. We cant even read their blacked out. But even whats available, sounds horrendous and disgusting. This shameful record includes alleged instances in which new patrol in the members were coerced, to shoot a prisoner in order to achieve that soldiers 1st kewl in an appalling practice known as bloody atrocities. Range from reports of troops killing a 6 year old child and a house raid to a prisoner being shot dead to save space and a helicopter apology given measures to be taken culprits to be punished. Compensation to be paid. But just think of how many times since 2001, we heard the same kind of stuff from the kolisch. It was just one of the issues with president obama spoke by telephone to apologize and express his condolences for the m. S. F. Staff and patients who were killed and injured. Sincere apologies for any offense. This may have caused my apologies to the president of afghanistan, and we will make sure that anybody who was involved is held fully accountable with the full force of the law. It all makes you wonder, just how many more thousands of deaths or command full pause were still unaware of, especially when its revealed how much the people in charge were in denial about what they were doing. The problem is there is a disincentive really to tell the truth, we have created an incentive to almost require or for people to law. So well the latest report that left the aussies red faced lead twinning, strategic consequences and military mindset. U. Turns, well, judging by how badly trumps plans to cut the troop presence in afghanistan have been received. Is just Wishful Thinking for now. Weve been in afghanistan for almost 20 years, and no nato ally wants to stay any longer than necessary. But at the same time, the price for leaving too soon, were in including 1000. We could be very high and afghanistan risk becoming once again a platform for International Terrorists to plan and organize attacks on a hunger. So i guess it means more apologies could only be on the way course. The former governor of afghanistans new province says the actions of Australian Forces follow a long running pattern in the coalition. These are something that is very serious and we feel that that is beyond our comprehension. And im really appalled for that that. How could anybody and the name of humanity will live and do that, especially with this poor afghan people. And we hope that that will manifest to Something Real and not only for the australian, but also other nato countries. And also, United States who have committed similar acts in afghanistan also needs to pay heed to this issue and reconcile their own differences that i have done in afghanistan. The World Antidoping Agency has criticised the us bill to jail those involved in sports doping except in us leagues. Water says it will destabilize global antidoping efforts by giving the countrys domestic athletes a free pass. And you do bring agency wishes to understand why this legislation excludes vast areas of u. S. Support. In particular, the professional leagues and all college sport. It is not good enough for american sports. Why is it fine for the rest of the world . Washingtons rolled out its latest offensive in the war on performance enhancing drugs. Its called the rod chank of act, the rather anti doping act of 2019, which strengthened the integrity of International Sports competitions by imposing criminal sanctions on certain persons involved in International Doping fraud. Conspiracy. The act would green light washington for legal action against doping conspirators in games involving american players and it outlines some have to be penalties, fines of up to 1000000. 00, as well as prison sentences of up to 10 years. A dream come true for the usa today. It is a monumental day in the fight for clean sport worldwide, and we look forward to seeing the act soon become law and help change the game for clean athletes for the good. Considering how the u. S. Has treated domestic doping in the past. The lawbook could probably use of updates take Julian Edelman, the patriots shining star and super bowl m. V. P. His career seen some great achievements with a little help from dope, its wide receiver Julian Edelman is facing a 4 game suspension for performance enhancing substance, a 4 game suspension is quite a long leap away from 10 years in the can for edelman though the cushy treatment didnt end there. He was still showered with awards at the years and even sealed advertisement deals. There are no rules in basketball, its a similar story. Last year basketball, prodigy deon, dreyer, 8, and was caught doping up his punishment, jail. Just kidding. He was suspended for 25. 00 games and then showed up on the jimmy kimmel show. Hes a member of the n. B. A. All rookie team from the phoenix suns. Say hello to deion 38 and hello to gray. Ok. And heres the best part. Hes now the face of a Protein Health shake commercial. I was on the price thats how you do it. Washingtons long made it clear they take doping in sports very seriously. When of course, it suits their agenda. This has nothing to do with lees welfare or looking after us. If it did is we told you different stuff, looking out for the 5 things is not going to vote for the sponsors of the sports. Its simply looking out for the money interests of the hollanders, media, and government. Its nothing to do with r. C. Whether because it was a welfare they would have voted in across the board. All of the Major League Sports in america would sign of the media to water, but you wont do it because the owners of the big major sports teams and Media Networks to cover them and a huge be massive situation investors in these sports wont happen. So does, has nothing to actually whether this is simply about greece and the dollar coming up with refugees returning to their homes in the nagornokarabakh region. After the truce between armenia and azerbaijan, our correspondent, what our guys have to report on the ground when we come back, this is the weekly on r. T. International max kaiser, financial survival guide, liquid. Those that you can convert music thats quite easily to keep in mind though as a team into a place of record newly elected u. S. President s invariably, vell to steer the country in a fresh, bold direction. This time, those things may be a bit different, not least on foreign policy. Joe biden has promised to reengage with allies and restore the us his position as leader of the democratic world. Now, will the Biden Administration befall me on the global stage . Will we see a new approach or a return to the old ways . With nothing really settled, some of trumps enemies for the president and his supporters to be a price for the past 4 years. Against in rumors of war as trunk tries to bring troops home. Some say instead to start a war whether youre watching from flint or Traverse City michigan, this is our 2 international and the weekly. And were glad to have you with us. Now, a truce between armenia and azerbaijan continues to hold in the disputed region with russian peacekeepers deployed in the area. Those forces are now helping refugees return to their homes, but as i found out, it is not an easy homecoming. The war may be over, but the humanitarian situation here, instapundit here is still dial scenes like this are repeated hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of times across the city and left to their own devices. Look, emergency workers would be overwhelmed. This is why russia has sent help aside from peacekeepers who patrol the routes and heights rusher also said civilian rescuers, engineers, father and builders. They gauge the devastation and their state made how much aid will be required. Its neither easy nor quick. Lets go for the next one. How many do you have on your list . Oh, there are too many. How many have we visited today . About 50. Neither is it pleasant. Every creator has a story. Every destroyed home has its ghosts and with almost every visit, we hear again and again about how he were a she were all of them died. They were in this room 2 cousins and my grandmother. I was in the room over there, which wasnt destroyed. And i fell of my bed, opened my eyes, and only saw dust. It took me 5 minutes to crawl out the window. Help has come from all over the world, humanitarian organizations, lukoil and russian, rescuers catalog ruin. After wreckage, our 1st task is to cover all the broken windows and glass, so people can survive the winter. Its some pleasant even scary. I had some role in the construction of many of these buildings is painful for the priority now is making catabolic, livable, again, wreckage will be cleared later, but light damage has to be repaired. Now people are doing what they cad plastering, move a small holes and covering empty window frames with plastic sheets. But there are lines even prove that my house wasnt hit so bad. The last way for a newbie to the window saw it, but there who miss, which suffered much worse, really cant complain. The city is sloot coming back to life. The shock of the war ease wearing off and with every returning refugees. There is a sense that the city of state by the character has come back from the dead. But in every street there is a somber reminder that life will never be the same. And some people just cant come back. Every day we drive by this house, and its a sad sight, every time a dog guarding a house thats been destroyed. And a family that isnt there more, i guess d. Of from the garden. The peace deal was signed between armenia and azerbaijan. 2 weeks ago. And it ended more than 6 weeks of the deadly fighting over the not go to know kind of back region. The territorial feud has been ongoing for almost 30 years now. Baku and yerevan will hold on to their current military positions. Armenia will keep control of the disputed regions, largest cities, toponica, herit, and azerbaijan will take the 2nd biggest city which it captured just before fighting ended. Armenia will also have to hand over 3 other districts as well. Meanwhile, police in armenia have detained more than 90 protesters during the rallies against the peace deal. Demonstrations have been ongoing for almost 2 weeks now demanding the resignation of Prime Minister and young whom they have branded a traitor. But the premier said that he had no other choice, but to sign the truce, and that if the conflict had continued tens of thousands of armenians would have done. World leaders have called for a united response to the pandemic at the g 20 summit, which has just drawn to a close the 2 day gathering of the Worlds Largest economies was held by video link up for the 1st time ever. And it was hosted by saudi arabia, which currently holds the rotating presidency of the g. 20. Together. Those countries make up about 85 percent of the global economy. In a closing declaration, they pledged to help low Income Countries deal with the Economic Impact of covert 19, and supported the distribution of affordable vaccines. Earlier my colleagues ask you, taylor discussed a range of issues with saudi arabias permanent representative to the u. N. Your countrys hosting of the summit hasnt been without control to say to national no, to that womens empowerment feat says predominantly on the t 20 agenda. Despite the fact that activists have spared had to campaign for womens right on languishing in jail facing trial. Thats that quote. Whats your response to the odds . The strides that have been made by saudi arabia over the past few years are impeccable and unprecedented. We have more opportunities for women economically for women in the workplace, in the field of education, in many aspects of human life in places of leadership, in government and in business. And its kind of be judged by the situation over a few individuals who have come across the law and have being held under the procedures of the legal system. In his opening speech, king solomon said the countrys need to create the conditions for affordable and equitable access to covert fax scenes. Could you tell us a little bit about your countrys efforts to achieve that goal . We committed 500000000. 00 to do that, and we also made addition contributions to the world health organization. And we will continue to, to help in the development in the companies that are working again. But he says that is being made of flotsam efforts and also said in his summit speech, that vaccines should be the property of all of humanity and that russia is willing. And its not the fast time. Its not thought to provide countries in need without vaccines, without your way pippi one of those and does it support a Global Program like that . We would certainly be a party to, to that effort. And if any vaccine is developed, its other events will also be made available to the entire world. I also want to talk a little bit about international relations. Abidin in pos has cooled to saudi arabia, a quite pariah state. And thats notching a for the long running military campaign in yemen. How is saudi arabia thing to deal with such, anita . Well, im sure that we will be developing good, stronger relationship with mr. Bidens ministration in the same manner thats we have developed good as strong relations with tens of administrations before that we have declared that one sided ceasefire several times in yemen, talking about humanitarian situation. And the Financial Firm in all of that is happening and the territory is controlled by the who sees because of the fact that theyre getting and obstructing the delivery of International Aid to the, to these affected areas. Back in march, we saw that was an oil price down to off between moscow and riyadh. And the result was that moscow and aipac failed to agree on a production caught which led to a crash in the global price of crude. Many people worried, how can such disputes be avoided all prevented in the future . I think close call of the nation is taking place between the kingdom and the russian federation. And we have all of proven to ourselves and to the entire warrant that cooperation and understanding achieves better results than confrontation and going it alone. And i think that relations with russia on a Good Standing on the old front and dont on many other fronts as well. So lots to unwrap it. There. Thats it for me this hour. Ill be back in 33 minutes with another look at your weekly visit. Our chief national was a pandemic . No, certainly no borders, just blind to nationalities as American People to be. We dont look like seeing the whole world needs to be judged as commentary crisis, sleaze systems, and we can do better. We should be everyone is contributing each of our own way. But we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. The challenges created with the response has been must so many good people are helping us. It makes us feel very proud that we are in it together. The world is driven by shaped by one person or those who dares thinks we dare to ask them what i want them to that what i call the law or yours will pull you out of the gate open ended mouth and as it was about and i didnt do, it will always be the good, is it also or noble into home on a profitable will be a little different or dont or dont let you come up with a good come on down your mouth again about the how i live and im mad at the government, them on the numbers im not bad was going to go. But oh, november bit of us in the eyes of them, their genitals. What about nanami . Them but ill be all beings as it is about a little bit little bit to do aerial reconnaissance. We do have perhaps another at the start of his gosselin, directory of visitors are going to be im trying to contact all and american for when you come on the line, maybe the name of the heart of the i am the the side my
