From one sunday. Will be the big issue of the day. They dont like your grades to be in south africa the flow your schools. Its 10 oclock here in moscow and youre watching at International Live from last year with nina welcome to the program 1st in whats being described as an historic step 70 prisoners of exchange between russia and ukraine following months of talks the ukrainian president met the plane which brought 35 released prisoners back to key have some of the relatives were also there to welcome them while in moscow a plane carrying the other 35 newly freed prisoners touched down at the capital. Port. Was there for us. 2 buses part of a special motorcade have left this terminal for governmental flights carrying 35. 00 people 35. 00 people that ukraine swapped for an equal amount over their role now among those 35. 00 people is to real machines he was head of the Ukrainian Branch of the news agency and he was accused by key of state cheese and without a guilty verdict 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 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 the real visions 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 it and thanks a lot for that i feel that i was not alone but i feel that i have people who are member me to try 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 screeching over 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 valve being false reports false alarms finally has happened and the Russian Foreign ministry has already praised this saying that this show was key. Its readiness for compromise we see the agreed mutual release of people detained in russia and ukraine as a positive signal which should see another important step to breaking the deadlock in the current russian ukrainian relations unlike its predecessors selenski new administration has shown a sensible approach and a readiness for compromise some experts say that this is actually false if sign for the implementation of the minsk remains which are effectively the only viable option for you as viewed by russia and ukraine 2 and the bloodshed to the civil war in the east of ukraine. And played out in the ukrainian capital is 35 other freed prisoners arrived in kiev earlier you know nail discuss the developments 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 voted him are zelinsky and russian president Vladimir Putin have done everything we have promised and did not change over agreements. That youll ship 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 involved give us a sense. While at the beginning it was all speculation you know there were it was unknown who the prisoners were that were blacked out windows on the buses but now we have identified them and lets go over the main ones 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 it perhaps in via going to be in violation of rushes 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 Brian Mcdonnell says the Prisoner Exchange should be viewed as a positive by anyone who wants to see peace between the 2 nations. This is the 1st time for about 5 more than 5 years close in 6 years that russia and ukraine and face the thing that could be seen as a positive i mean obviously decision on has been made at the highest level between. The new president there in ukraine. And the president in russia so it seems that the 2 president s are decided upon its a very high profile prisoner swap if you will receive but france and germany in particular who were you know emanuel my corn and Angela Merkel have been talking about trying to get the peace talks we started this month i mean they basically they fell apart in the poroshenko years meant poroshenko simply didnt want to couldnt or didnt have the mandation internally in ukraine and wasnt Strong Enough but he definitely was unable to move the peace talks launched anybody that wants to see peace between in Eastern Ukraine and normalization of relations between russia and ukraine after this you know 5 and a half years of bio and i still if he understood this long interregnum period where theres been no progress whatsoever well below should of course. State department has confirmed it attempted to bribe the captain of the iranian all time and area one which is at the center of a diplomatic row in order to detain it the vessel previously known as grace one was held by the u. K. In july near travolta 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 has not been switched off his r. T. S. Danielle hole calls. If at 1st you dont succeed try 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 time. 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 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 bryan hook i work for secretary of state mike pump a 0 and serve as the u. S. Representative for iran the offer millions of dollars for captain kumar to dock his own tanker in a u. S. 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 would be much harder for you what lay behind this thinly veiled threat 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 taps and 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. Meanwhile u. S. National security advisor john bolton has tweeted that the tanker has now been seen entering a syrian port iran previously denied it it made any definitive statement about the ships final destination 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 irans 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 him 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 out there issues as well bolton wants to intimidate iran and that he has failed and the supertanker is along the syrian shore reveals that failure so hes outraged at another level he wants to make the Syrian People suffer as much as possible because thats been u. S. Policy for many years now and on that there have 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 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. In south africas biggest city johannesburg a foreign owned businesses are being looted amid a wave of xenophobic tensions across the country on monday the countrys Police Minister described the situation as a National Emergency pulis clear reports from the city where foreigners say theyre increasingly living in fear. Here you see people in johannesburg which you dont have seen some of the worst violence against foreigners south africa as you can see here. Taking whatever they can supplement but not take it and what not to wear out that it could be any moment now the entire building can come in coming down because really hammering out of the structure now the mood on the ground its not that we dont feel under the same comfortable calming we told the show no is no way to be seen and no doubt he is trying to stay as tollway from the kind of scenes as possible because one still gets mistaken. That b. Situation has nothing to do concrete cotton i know its hard to believe but this was a bottle store one of the cashiers working there was no doubt who comes from zimbabwe what actually happened make up one family and made to around a cold november break bishop they did both up was there it was a monday night the big gone by then theyd been. A month being away from a good well known name for the big dig deep in the thames to stand. 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 for you on green fluid before we do that often. The sun will move through the influence can we see can we come in anything remotely. Or most of last the wonderful room what do we do with it in the large little book for believe that weve read from lucia or do you think showing your South African identity protects your case going to give me was really good 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 not they given that were not doing enough other moves and blaming would be lonely government a Government Employee with the nobody wants the growth of lone wolf will get little probably 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 not the result has been offered 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 mr j. Said some 8 people have been killed and more than 300 have been detained as we say the violence is a sad reflection on what where he is and and tenable situation. Where are you from the world on your plate to be an. Something flo you of course the go the people thought the good will last sunday in no good mood of build the ones youre given to be given the list and how many years and even some of the years to say you south africa your school. And now you have no business no move this thing you should move it is to me how you can air the cost of families all the more over how this shop here which has been 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 the people here definitely afraid that the violence will continue you welded up the shops why they mean the hollywood and did they take everything with them. And where all the nigerian owners in the foreign owners all got underway are they thinking to leave the country they wrote your book or do you stop your breakthrough with. Ever quest went out today for all 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. The head of the province where johannesburg is located insists the situation is now 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 reinforce the police but so far they are dealing with the situation in all in the entire provinces calm. Residence in jerusalem with the new neighbors the incoming us embassy well tell you about spots all about after this break. You know world big. Lot and conspiracies its time to wake up to dig deeper to get the stories that Mainstream Media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the shouting past each other its time for Critical Thinking its time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now were watching closely watching the hawks. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy. Let it be an arms race is also a spear in Dramatic Development only really im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical. To sit down and talk. Welcome back to the program and they spat over a wall residents of a jerusalem neighborhood raised by an almost 6 metre told by being built around the new us embassy there they say it will block their view of the area and rich near the American Embassy received a permit to build a wall 3. 2 meters high but it was recently authorize for the barrier to be the height locals 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 it because youre right im already the image 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 for those entire view from my house. Were very upset we were part of a group of neighbors were trying to see what can be done to stop this i. Like to consult with us its going to block our view its going to block our air and its going to turn our. Uncomfortable quarry door and we dont want to live with that. 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 jerusalem based Construction Company says the new war 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 of a wall in jerusalem according to the authorities is 3. 25 point lead says is too much and they disregarding the neighborhoods there are many beautiful houses here in the center of jerusalem and the wall like that would be an eyesore. What are the authorities in jerusalem to comment and well let you know what they say as soon as we get a response. There was a confrontation between rival brags that rallies outside parliament in london earlier this saturday have the Police Protests in Parliament Square come after a politically bruising week for the Prime Minister johnson lost his 1st parliamentary vote as m. P. s rejected his push to allow a no deal braggs it and his attempts to call a snap election next month lawmakers also move to force johnson seek yet another break that extension to the end of january if Withdrawal Agreement isnt reached by the current deadline of october the 30. The Prime Minister will try again on monday to get m. P. s back in for an election. Now the fight against this information is at the core of an upcoming book by a former u. S. State Department Official in the Obama Administration Richard Stengel is message is that america is losing the information war against russia and is struggling to control and counteract all since. Its not enough to bust or falsehood was truth the truth does not always win the scale of russian descent from asia was beyond what we were capable of responding to or thora tarion governments have gone from fearing the flow of information to exploiting its they understand that the same tools that spread democracy can engineer its undoing lets face it democracies are not very good at combating this information which is was managing editor at Time Magazine between 262013 before moving on to government work he served as undersecretary of state for Public Diplomacy in affairs for 2 years stengel views on propaganda have changed last year he openly backed 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 its. I would say theres a difference between propaganda and us telling people what our policy is so i dont think i job is propaganda. You know my old job at the state department was what people used to joke as the chief propaganda is job and the north and daniel is all things that lawsuit and has a selective approach to dealing with the truth. Americans never a law and even when they law. Its not a lie because somehow its a its in pursuit of a higher truth and so on so stengel would never admit to admit to deceit to to painting a false portrait remember though the worse 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 disinformation in behalf of russia on one hand yes the us is being more openly propagandists like the other hand when the us does it its not propaganda its simply the truth and anything to the contrary is fake information. Now ill be back with more updates in around 30 minutes time so stay with us. During the Great Depression which old mr remember there was and most of my family were unemployed working class and it wasnt it was bed you know much worse objectively than today but there was an expectation that things were going to get better. Of there was a real sense of hopefulness there isnt today todays america was shaped by the turn principles of concentration of wealth and power. Reduced democracy at tax a loadout engineer elections manufacture consent and other principles according to no im chomsky one set of rules for the rich opposite set of rules for. Thats what happens when you put her into the hands of a narrow sector of wilf which will is dedicated to increasing power for itself just as youd expect one of the most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america. What politicians do. They put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. Or something wanted us. To try to be for us its like the 43 in the morning cant be good. Im interested always in the water in the house. I sit. Pain years in the cross started 10 years and i think its time to shake things up maybe change the branding maybe the format here is what ive been thinking about next season related episodes filmed on an island 10 experts fight it out for a trophy what do you think ok a more affordable option 25. 00 text for. One red rose another suggestion. Jeopardy parody no political cookout where we will literally wrote the elites. Late night show its a rare format these days and its cheap all you need is an old microphone in a printed banner. To leave me with one of my i guess i can do this candle after politics gone wild like music. Ok crosstalk is not about hype its about meaning 10 years of talk and still going strong. Peter if you want to change something why dont we get rid of the bow tie you know that is too much. Oh. This is the kaiser report and were going to get into some really important things there in paris france where we are now so lets bring stacy im going to quickly read the 3 have i and i have here because its all about politics geopolitics and geo economics here the 1st one because were in france ill start with the french headline because this was from macro and after trump leaves france mccrone warns world is living the end of western hedging mony but we also have a headline from the u. S. That matches this to my mind and its from bill dudley former head of the new york fed started in 2009 after tim geithner left until 2016 and before that he was with Goldman Sachs for about 2025 years the fed shouldnt enable donald trump you know trump isnt a trade war and thats why bill dudley responded to this its like this trade war with china is crazy we shouldnt cut rates in fact we should raise rates if anything hes almost suggesting anything to get rid of trump like we should overthrow the guy well trumps new trade war tool might just be antique china debt collectors of pre communist debt are lobbying the white house to force beijing to pay up president Donald Trumps next move in an increasingly fraught trade war with china could be one for the history books literally the trumpet ministration has been studying the unlikely prospect of reviving centuries old claims and chinese bonds sold before the founding of the communist peoples republic this was a 1911 and it was used to fund the construction of a rail line between han crew and shows you won and once the communist revolution happened and the people overthrew the though. Imperial power in china they said forget the debts but now the u. S. Might revive the us thats because people have bought them buying them like e bay is a collectors item to address microns comments and bill buckleys comments right this plays into the duel scene
