Negotiator in peace talks with the taliban is to testified before congress i meet questions over Donald Trumps decision to shut down discussions with the tara group and then time the talibans urge the president to return to the new go that is a behind it it really you can ask the were cochran but if we are still im committed to the league wish issues reese the that it to i would started and i will only see from this study militant one the sun was low but they did this Mood Solution for of off want conflict except it was shushan and and except the piece on the table saw we dont want to revitalize be the book do it to the im stuck dung the his the i mean the smooth in heat from a back to where we have i want to be worked just the sign of the after of the and fact you could be of to me to go to know the go talibans frequently responsible for terrorist attacks across afghanistan in the latest incident at least 4 local troops were killed 3 injured when a suicide car bomber targeted a military base in southern carbo on thursday and trump ended almost a year of negotiations with the taliban on sunday when they admitted to killing a u. S. Serviceman to quote strengthen their bargaining position as the had the opportunity to speak with the taliban officials and assessed how the talks fell apart just days ago they stood on the brink of a breakthrough the beginning of the end of the afghan war then it all collapsed and it was too good to be true the talks with the taliban are dead and the taliban refused to attend talks with trump wanting a deal 1st trump killed off negotiations citing an american soldier killed by islamists in of ghana stan and i put it to the taliban how do you expect trump to talk negotiate with you when you are killing his troops as you speak. The next day with mr tucker cancer this is a. Negotiation he mr buffett with his father is that he says he admitted that he had a good 1000. 00 well so if big dollars off us why we could not get one of the more blogger so this to go away he would have to defend our civic to different people we have to be fit enough of people of either somewhere over there that were going to be bombarded with we have 2 different our people the way the taliban see it theyre defending themselves in their country fighting against a Foreign Occupation and for every american soldier they kill tens of their fighters and civilians are killed in. The u. S. They said this isnt a war they won they say isnt a war they can win by force but they wont and cant give up what is imposed on us. American soldiers there they dont want to stop its not a minute of the soldiers are going to be in washington they are never there was a lot of us but still we. Proposed and we were keen to bring peace and i want some through the system but unfortunately i need to retrieve some sort of fidelity even if it was cancelled by the american side of science and done a lot of consideration which was which took. His or her mr vance are going to some of the characters that have broken such a peace treaty and 2 terms and but obama started it were going to be stupid so be us rigid we want peace in afghanistan we wanted to give a serious message for the foreign troops is to go from afghanistan so if the other side are also. With this he also wants the saved and the what is the what is important for us we have a different course of if the if the american side is not really and it was initially and did not want based on the sort. We compared to defend our Civil Liberties to do this for a number of years what hurt the most the taliban had negotiated told me is how close they were to a deal a ceasefire the details had been worked out in the fine print sorted and approved only for everything to collapse where there was a discussion on the debate is forward to going to decide they need to do. A ceasefire between as an American Forces and get a city by City Government or force of the rule and one. For the internet i only wish it was so. Good of a good wishes of the the ceasefire. And appearance of cease fire and also other donors that dont think issues can be discussed as things stand talks for now over the war will go on the killing will go on but trump already boasting that hes hitting the taliban with his pavement dead in theory we have been serving as policeman in afghanistan and that was not meant to be the job of our great soldiers the finest on earth over the last 4 days we have been hitting our enemy harder than at any time in the last 10 years until that is common sense prevails and the us goes back to what everyone in washington knows is inevitable talks negotiations with the taliban. Us politicians have been arguing about the countrys role in afghanistan for years sit was a key issue in thursday nights 3rd round democratic debate. Where doing right now in afghanistan is not helping the safety and security of the United States because the problems in afghanistan are not problems that can be solved by our military we have got to put an end to endless war one thing weve learned about afghanistan from afghanistan is that the best way in not to be caught up in endless war is to avoid starting one in the 1st when we came to you know office to brock turned the president turned to me and said joe when they said we had a plan to get out he turned to the whole security. Job organize this get the troops home the big mistake that was may which we predicted was that you would not have a circumstance where this year and the kurds would Work Together to keep isis from coming from moving in a huge mistake and one of the big differences between you and me i never believed what cheney and bush said about iraq you know what heres the war in iraq. And helped lead the opposition. And its been a kind of you know how the feeling that they would be massive destabilization in that area if we went into that what. The feminists clashed over several issues but recently one topic is one that theyve mostly agreed on thats opposition to fracking some even calling for a complete fracking process involves turning deep into the ground to recover oil and natural gas critics claim is dangerous and bad for the environment and tell us democrats those fears and has the story. The usa is now the worlds top the Oil Exporting Country check out these words from the International Energy agency booming shale production has allowed the u. S. To close in on and briefly overtake saudi arabia as the worlds top oil exporter President Trump says that this is a huge achievement hes ready to celebrate success becoming more and more energy dominant i dont want to give you free we want to be energy dominant in terms of the world but not everyone shares Donald TrumpsEnergy Market enthusiasm in fact most of the people who want to run against him in the 2020 alexion want to outlaw the practice of hydraulic fracking thats the reason the usa has so much oil and gas any proposal to avert the Climate Crisis must include a full fracking ban on public and private lands on my 1st day as president i will sign an executive order that puts the total murder tarm on own you fossil fuel leases for drilling off shore and on public lands and i will ban fracking everywhere its not just the left progressives youve got the centrist kemal a harris theres no question im in favor of banning fracking so at this point roughly 59 percent of americas oil is extracted from the shale so if you outlawed the practice of hydraulic fracking you would knock down the oil sector of the u. S. Economy pretty hard the same for natural gas now check out this headline. Kremlin kemal or harris and other democrats are embracing Vladimir Putins preferred u. S. Energy policy the new Conspiracy Theory even went viral on twitter many in fracking and use of natural gas would do more damage to america and make him or putin happier than anything donald trump has ever said or done so good job democrats you are being pro russia pro putin and program and by wanting to ban natural gas of course the senator isnt the only 2020 democrat calling for this from russia with love ban on fracking the most reliable of k. G. B. Useful idiots Bernie Sanders is even clearer now this notion that opposition to hydraulic fracking is all a big plot from moscow is nothing new in fact weve even heard it from the halls of the u. S. Congress we have seen evidence of campaigns targeting agriculture and energy as to 2. Industries of interest to foreign powers and energy we have seen anti fracking narratives so it seems like nowadays the only way to really play it safe in american politics is to find out what the wider were putting once and do the exact opposite so lets hope that the russian president doesnt talk about say fixing up americas crumbling roads and bridges or addressing the opioid epidemic. R. T. New york. In the u. K. A classic childrens t. V. Character is being criticized for failing to keep up with modern equality standards and some has been axed from his role as a mascot for a local brigade this is after bosses he could discourage women from joining. His friends need him more than ever. To send him the phone to the rescue team managed to save the day. And some 1st aired in 987. 00 as an animation about firefighters in a small village since then has been widely used to promote fire safety and services across the u. K. Now though since that time could be up expects. Generations of kids may have grown up with him but legendary childrens t. V. Show character fireman sam needs to get with the times thats according to the lincolnshire fire and rescue service for years he was their mascot helping to recruit new fina fighters bots now lincolnshire fire and rescue service say that fineman sound is outdated and noninclusive and hes putting off potential female recruit firefighters nationally and residents locally have raised some concerns that farm and sam doesnt reflect the former Service Today in terms of both the job itself and our workforce its important to us that our open space and Community Events dont think anyone feel excluded and therefore we took this decision lincolnshire chief fire officer. Fired fireman sam has been getting roasted for it really does a great job for you as a one writing life as a why nobody knows exactly what you should do is to far yourself and it is a leaf im a sahm alone this isnt the 1st time that firemen sam has been in hot water many argue that while the show is politically correct and features plenty of female characters it should be renamed to firefighter. No i think you got it right i think its just somebody taking it to the fore and stickery really enough and come quite happy with what it is he is the epitome of straight. To my mind. May not be terribly appealing to people who want to be. Firemen however if youre to be a farmer you should want to know. Why didnt you just stick to the basics and enjoy and get back to the basics so we might have a nicer place to live. Very very happy to have him renamed firefighters and 1st to then become gender specific person over here but why not some sort of gender specific name but street ok sir yes now most of yes exactly exactly they could be put in because no rubbish it could be so just do it it was just a childrens card to you know youre going to take things to fogs that music and another british cartoon icon peppa pig was recently but rated by none other then the london fire brigade whose head is by the way a woman for featuring an episode where mommy pig pretended to be a fire man and not a fire fighter mommy pig is dressed as a fireman a while you dress like. Im going to the mummys fire engine practice come on peppa pig weve not been fireman for 30 years you have a huge influence on kids and using out of date stereotypical gender specific wording prevents young girls from becoming firefighters join our Fire Fighting sexism Campaign Women make up just 5. 2 percent of firefighters in england and with that in mind lincolnshire fire and rescue service have come up with 3 original new characters to help attract more diverse recruits that anthropomorphise sized fire extinguishes freddy filled but and penelope. India has made around 4000. 00 arrests and its part of kashmir since just last month will take a look at whats going on bring you more stories after this break. There are growing indications the wests anti russias stance may be softening a case in point is the recent visit of francis top diplomat and defense minister or take for example the New York Times editorial calling on trump to better relations with the kremlin as a way to block china an important question remains can moscow trust the west anymore. Welcome back the outgoing president of the commission has lashed out at an initiative from his successor regarding migration well the details his court. Younger might be on his way out as he use Commission President but that hasnt stopped him from giving his 0. 02 on issues of migration one of his latest statements assured the continent that migration is not a threat to europes way of life. To oppose the european way of life to migration you have to respect the other. Independently from the independent from the. Younger was responding to his successor ursule of on their lay and her initiative to make several government titles of positions more creative and a bit less formal now the most controversial of which was the Vice President for the protection of the european way of life and this this position was intended to address how migration affected life on the continent the european way of life is built around Solidarity Peace of mind and security we must address and they legitimate fears and concerns about the impact of irregular migration on our economy and society younger might have come out publicly in opposition to their lns initiative to rename these government positions but in the e. U. Parliament there are larger divisions at play some are saying that this is helping the right wing might even amount to fascism while others are saying whats the big deal and the wide European Commission claiming to protect our european way of life is a far cry from the idea of unity in diversity on which this union is built when we talk about the european way of life what were talking about is asylum and integration the european way of life is about those coming from war from hunger from Climate Change and integrating all those who want to come and live with us now this row is only one part of europes larger migration situation especially because 1st arrival countries like italy and greece are finding it increasingly difficult to stem the tide of illegal migration onto the continent while from a far countries like germany are only pressuring them to handle the situation better. Earlier i discussed the issue with paris based the law. Sorenson the chairman of the communist party of. European life evolved during the years it has changed a lot a european life is the unity within that diversity but the only issue here is what do you going to do with all busy these make grants coming to europe are we as european are able to host them. Greatly haase them are not when it comes to migrants. Our basic position is that we support. The migrants and we. Are International Solidarity because reading from basically become part of this system most of these immigrants come for economy color reasons and as europeans we cannot handle this and we cannot give them the better their situation or a better life because we have a lot of we have a lot of unemployment here so its going to be its going to be very difficult for us. To force them all these immigrants as well as the one well the. United. States because it covers the whole of europe the missions are divided into classes. Support. For unity between. The exploited and exploited within the european companies. For the way you are describing the situation in europe this is a comment directly from this is that. We must address a legitimate fears and concerns about the impact of irregular migration on our economy and our society says she feels that. The economy just every day peoples lives are being threatened by by gratian are you in favor of them come again even if theyre causing problems in that sense the problems of migrants in themselves the problem is the reason they are being used the capitalist system as. We exploited various companies economically. We we wars. Other peoples countries we we live in the climate of the world i dont know if you remember a long time ago in france we had their french Prime Minister card michelle work out and he said long time ago and he was a socialist and he was a very open mind the socialist and very poor immigrant and he said once we cannot we cannot cause all the misery afterward in france thats thats the thing it comes across as very negative very defensive that immigrants are a sore at to us shouldnt she have gone for a different title perhaps you know commissioner in charge of improved integration of immigrants from her perspective of course you have to. Listen to the far right not just to use language in order to try to do some support from the borrowed from going to basically all the wrong or representatives make peace with a lot of. Leeway. In their use of language and words is not surprising because this is the this is the Political Climate exist the protection of the european way of life is more against lets say lets and lets face the problem is more against islamic countries and people because most of them they come here they want to they want to keep their way of living their way their way of the freedom of their religion and i can tell you as a me when myself im enemy and myself im in a wing in france and i came here but i when you go when you go to a country you have to you have to pledge respect to that to their culture. Of this country keeping and keeping your your own culture i consider myself as friends as iranian friends i respect my country i stayed there in their french culture but i think as a as a french i should respect the culture of france. And the 4000. 00 people have been arrested in administered kashmir since new delhi revoked
