hello good morning welcome just come on the clock here in moscow you're watching international 30 years ago the wall was torn reuniting east and west berlin and heralding the beginning of the end of the cold war where security is high today ahead of major celebrations across the country in berlin thousands are expected to take part in numerous events including a variety of exhibitions on the wars history but for those who can't attend his artesia with the story of. the berlin wall a symbol of the cold war and division a mind that separated the city families friends and changed berlin for the remainder of the 20th century 40 kilometers long at slice of the city and was erected on the night of august 13th 1961 1st it was just a barbed wire and concrete france where 12 checkpoints but it swiftly grew into the fortified version most know it today the checkpoints were reduced to 3 and crossing became all butt. impossible. imagine this a concrete wall 3.6 meters high and 1.2 meters wide smooth still nerve running along the top to prevent anyone climbing over watchtowers every 200 meters 962 a 2nd wall was built around 100 meters and the east berlin territory this buffer zone became known as the death strip it's off stand to show foot prints floodlights tripwires and machine guns the guards had permission to shoot on sight and had vicious dogs the more elaborate the wall became the more created for the waste across that 5000 people managed to get through climbing over climbing under through the sewers and even and hot air balloons or the 100 died trying to fearsome bear that emerge seemingly overnight and it just as rapidly on nov 9th 19091000 storm the checkpoint unborn homer street at 10 45 pm the head of the checkpoint overwhelmed by the crowd gave way and open the gate the others soon followed. now as jim he celebrates reunification to some it does seem that the country is still divided with an invisible line separating east and west. explains. walking through the center of berlin one can see how much effort the german government has put for the 30th anniversary of the fall of the berlin wall it almost seems that the country was never divided it is difficult to identify characteristics of socialist architecture between the multi ethnic restaurants and bars but leaving the center you see in the reality west and east still remain intact 3 decades after the fall of the wall even chancellor angela merkel admits it runs the show that if you're into fool me he's german citizens in today's german nation if you like 2nd class citizens according to those less than 40 percent of the the germans think that reunification the most successful books and among those under 14 anyone to figure is around 20 percent instant lesson ha ha satisfied with democracy in germany former interior minister told us that his good one said that for east germans everything has changed but for west germans only their postal cold and 30 years on his comments seem to be quite superficial a recent study shows the significant gap between the west and the east in terms of wages and unemployment and as a result of these inequalities fresh ration ends in a phobia seem to be taking over the people even after 30 years of their reunification germany still struggles to accept that the country house multiple identities the berlin wall was put up to stop migration from east to west nile the idea seems to be life again since 2015 during the refugee crisis the country saw more than 1000000 asylum seekers in germany now they're blaming them for decreasing the wages and taking advantage of their wealth for system it's not a surprise that one in 2 germans believe that the country cannot handle anymore refugees saying it has reached its limits and it's no surprise and nationalist sentiments are on the rise of the city of theirs that has. he declared a state of emergency in the recent talk on synagogue in how he has shown that more than a quarter of germans hold anti semitic beliefs. i would like to point out once again that it's all those some don't want to admit this the threat of anti-semitism and right wing terrorism is high in germany and one of the areas that we also classify as high that is islamist terror which remains you know field of view and we make no compromises there but we have to approach this phenomenon with anti semitism right wing extremism that with the same intensity you could see why people are happy to go up the wall and everybody is for united but the rise of c. is bringing the increase of hate crimes all the gentrified and marginalized communities should remind germany that region if it cation is a process rather than just a public holiday. but we caught up with an american who defected to the soviet union in 1952 and then moved to germany grossman told us what he thinks was better than. the old days a people almost most people seemed to have more money than they could spend because there were not enough luxury goods in the shops so that they had money to go to on vacation and so forth not everybody but a large number today many many people and especially children are suffering from a severe lack of money this is another problem which has taken place and makes me think after 30 years that as with many of the ents in the world history there's a good side and a bad side to everything and there were some bad sides to this makes me i should add still said that that experiment the g.d.r. a part of germany at least as it was only a small part and the poor apart but at least one part of germany where they could really almost completely get rid of poverty this was an achievement which has rarely been it a reach any place in the world i think to a great extent the g.d.r. reach that that nobody really feared suffering from poverty even 2 generations in germany could not get rid of fascist ideas and racist ideas in peoples heads but in east germany if they still had them. they kept to themselves they were they didn't voice them publicly they may have voiced them among the family in the family of close friends but not publicly now today and after the wall went down f. you saw it right near my home whole columns of really fascist thugs with swastikas if they can if they can somehow disguise them a little with fascist slogans and looking like just the same as the s.s. man 80 years ago and this is one of the most frightening things about the fall of the wall. well the u.s. secretary of state also went in to commemorate the fall of the wall and yes the cation tell you to take a jab at china and russia. everyone in this room has a duty we must recognize that free nations are in competition of values with those unfree nations today russian led by a former k.g.b. officer stationed in dresden invade his neighbors. slays political opponents the chinese communist party uses tactic as methods to suppress its own people that would be horrifyingly familiar to former east germans. well the former cia chief pompei i did some of his military service patrolling the berlin wall but his attendance at the ceremony was also greeted with criticism for one of germany's biggest let's. asked when he west troops would finally leave germany there are currently almost 40000 u.s. military personnel remaining in the country journalist and author thomas fassbender says washington is losing influence over the. this is a a rather cheap effort that we kind ling cold war nostalgia let me put it that way kind ling german in face of russia because the best way of course to do that the best way to develop a strong enemy image among german politicians and populations is to picture or to paint brush in the mold as close as possible in the mold of the soviet union one of the central feeders of us jews to thinking as i see it is losing control over germany that germany might at one point early or later take her own fate into her own hands keeping large armies with tanks and soldiers along the russian border is from my point of view a futile effort which the fact of which of the intention of which is mainly to keep western europe within a status of things and fear of russia in order to stay close to the folds of the u.s.g. used to egypt interests. now they hate him but they also wanted the syrian president bashar assad describes the relations between europe and the turkish leader when an exclusive interview with our take in fact it is the 1st time he's spoken to an international channel in more than a year and you can watch the interview in full on monday here not see but also on our website say at r.t. dot com is a quick preview. only euro and agonistic with nato nation turkey but was dirty and arguably a 3rd of must be aware that western policy is liable for blow back into the european union would have you made of the european union government through swan through the possible. outflow. british guy says that his fate is back into the european union how dangerous is it to be in london today or paris or but live. actually the relation between her and the e.u. is do is they hate him but they want him. they don't do that in the know that he is phanatic islamist they know this and they're the bin or that is going to send them both. extremist or maybe terrorist egypt in many refugees from your country of many of them from syria and some of them know they're coming from different areas in the world not only syria actually but the majority are syrian up all of them are extremist mob the measure 2 of them are actually muscle that would have to turkey they'd have to because all the terrorism is here because of the bombardment of the terrorists and so on. so they don't want him but the same time the they fear him but from the other side let's hear that thing doing those. syria and other. is danger with the most dangerous on europe is to support the terrorists in syria this is the most dangerous part so this is hypocrisy how can you fear those few 1000000 of the most of them are moderates and they have while you do you support those theories they're rickly in 100 in tens of thousands at least and maybe hundreds of thousands in syria and you don't fear that they're going to go back to a country. that brazil's former president little silver hawk free from prison on thursday was greeted by chanting supporters. i was. loose early release was made possible by new court ruling that allows convicted criminals to avoid prison if they have not exhausted their pay was understood to supporters took to the streets of sao paolo here to celebrate. this looks like emotion you cannot imagine what this day means to me this is the victory of democracy of it and hope for brazil that rule is free who is the hope of this country the president has always cared for the poor who always look after poor people ruling the streets today you might live forever. it's a very happy day for me and many others because lolo was freed we've been waiting for justice to happen our country is my joke i believe we have a reason to celebrate and renew our energy to continue wishing for a better country a happier brazilian people think i'm secure and we're here to celebrate i hope we'll win over fear democracy will be reestablished in this country is free will it is still the brazilian president from 2003 to 2012 years ago though he was convicted of corruption and money laundering and sentenced to 12 years in prison himself denies any wrongdoing this summer though there was a twist in his case because a leaked conversation revealed that the prosecutor and the judge were privately discussing the case hasn't it been a long time without an operation you cannot make that kind of mistake now that think hard whether that's good idea what do you think of these crazy statements from the workers' party national board should with fishel rebut my colleague lee harvey spoke in the studio would better not altman he's the chief editor of brazilian news site opera monday. now with out of jail decide to ation have a very has a very important attend because it's going to be deleted off the opposition lulay is going to be walking on the streets talking to the people i mean officially he's powerless and different participation in politics but he's much bigger than he is able to do that with dis decision of the supreme court he's totally free to do what he wants to do including any kind of political action is part of the decision i remember from when i was in brazil for the 24 team president lula was a standing but it was clear this man is greatly loved in brazil he's got a huge fan base a real presence know him just being out and about with the electorate does that put a lot of pressure on the the current president i'm sure it's going to because now the opposition is going to have a leader up to this time around after both a man to. the opposition of both not have a leader in brazil has no live in conditions to talk to people now with ruler walking and talking on the street the opposition is going to have a very important leader that i think is going to chant political situation in brazil i'm sure about that but we also spoke to silva while he was still in jail he told us then that brazil should defend its sovereign say resist political meddling from outside. ecu warfare no one has to accept foreign interference in the affairs of a sovereign state i do not support american brazilian colombian or any other interference their attempts to control another country by promoting their own candidates by creating a fake figurehead like one guy joe i'm totally against this there are situations that a democratic country has to deal with on its own but. you brazil is a very big country it can be fully sovereign or it could become one of the main actors on international policy i admire the role that president putin plays in the modern world it shows that the world cannot be held hostage to u.s. policy to trump's craziness the craziness of a u.s. president who believes that he could invade any country kill any president somebody has to stop him and brazil concluded that it was not a still scampi to savvy i.m.f. says it's trying to renegotiate the terms of argentina's debt with the country's new president elect and told our sister channel about the upcoming negotiations we'll have the details and happenings. i'm max kaiser one more of my guide to financial survival this is a it's a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right these has flaws are simply not accountable and we're just adding more and more to the. totally destabilize the global economy you need to protect yourself and get informed because we. chose seemed wrong. just don't hold. any belief yet to shape out this day become active. and engaged equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. 0 again the international monetary fund says it is ready to renegotiate the terms of a massive loan to argentina with his president elect alberta fernandez defeated minute show in elections last month fernandez made renegotiation of the i.m.f. loan sense and 3 years campaign argentina has a long and difficult history if you organization here's a quick recap. well the latest loan from the i.m.f. didn't solve many problems for argentina the country is currently almost $300000000000.00 in debt inflation is approaching 55 percent and poverty is also a major concern with the unemployment rate reaching a decade high our sister channel r.t. spanish was the 1st international outlet to interview the president elect when and as told our host and former president of ecuador rafael correia how argentina found itself in this dire situation. where we are now faced with problems that were previously unknown to us in 2015 argentina faced inflation a lack of foreign reserves a dollar peg but it didn't have excessive debt but after machree came he started to add debt arguing it would help to reduce budget surplus and the boring reached an all time record in one and a half years at some point the market told him no i'm not going to give you more because you won't give me anything back so what did machree do he asked the i.m.f. to help and after that the i.m.f. loans him $57000000000.00 which is 60 percent of the world debt to the i.m.f. in other words 60 percent of the amounts that the i.m.f. has lent to the whole world falls on one country argentina why did they loan this money to support machree so that he can stay on as president the most expensive political campaign in human history is the machree campaign it cost argentines $57000000000.00 everyone knows that the international monetary fund is an accomplice to what's happened everyone knows that european leaders who at that moment complained about loans granted by the i.m.f. know that. everyone knows that i firmly believe that we are going to go shoot properly and we must tell the truth because our goal is to pay off the debt and not to evade it. now the international criminal court at the hague has method that is highest to have a penalty to the congolese rebel warlord he does join a growing list of africans convicted by the court of crimes against humanity however frank now looks at why the i.c.c. seems only to convict war criminals from africa this is a very special court it's out there only to wrong cases such as genocide crimes against humanity war crimes it's called the international criminal court or the i.c.c. and what would sort out let's say your cousins divorce here's its latest verdict for a murder that attempted as a crime against humanity and there's a war crime yes for prosecution as a crime against humanity the said to years of imprisonment this is the convict congolese rebel commander bosco ntaganda indeed he'll now serve 3 decades for everything he did during a nightmarish civil war in the heart of africa the crimes have been well documented by activists so probably no one will argue the man god what he deserved. it can't bring back his victims but the international criminal court's 30 year sentence for congolese rebel leader bosco into gumba signals that even those who once thought themselves untouchable could one day be brought to justice a signal for the untouchables. ok anyway just a few minutes of research will show that all people who've ever been indicted by the i.c.c. there's a few dozen have one thing in common they're all from africa on the list not only rebel king peng's but very top officials former leaders but again nobody from other parts of the globe sure the african continent has witnessed countless civil wars there's no need for any additional explanation for just how much blood was spilled there but what about the ugly record by the rest of the world once the court was to get the atrocities of the israeli arab conflict under its microscope here's the message that instantly came from washington the united states will use any means necessary to protect our citizens and those of our allies from unjust prosecution by this illegitimate court we will not cooperate with the i.c.c. we will provide no assistance to the i.c.c. and we certainly will not join the i.c.c. we will let the i.c.c. die on its own after all for all intents and purposes the i.c.c. is already dead. so far no one's felt the strong i.c.c. hand when it comes to that middle east crisis earlier this year alleged american war crimes in of ghana stan came into focus. if you're responsible for the proposed i.c.c. investigation of u.s. personnel in connection with the situation in afghanistan you should not assume that you will still have or will get a visa. for that you will be permitted to enter the united states the case over the afghan intervention unanimously rejected even tony blair could have appeared before the judges in there but you got it right it's not something such a high at least seemed former u.k. v.i.p. would go through they get a bit more into history and you'll find out america's response to the very foundation of the i.c.c. was pay attention to this one a law that authorizes the use of military force to liberate any american or a citizen of a u.s. allied country being held by the court in the hague the message is clear if you don't want u.s. marines storming the shores stick to the africans that someone say there's been a clear signal for the untouchable i believe that there are certain continents like africa and countries within that continent that are looked at with more scrutiny perhaps because they are less developed nations and have less power when it comes to their economies in the ability to shape world policy and so it's very easy to target those countries and to ignore some of the larger countries that might also be guilty of some of these things as well but have more influence and more slip sway globally the united states sits in a very interesting and powerful position worldwide where we are able to exert influence over international courts and to ignore those we want to ignore and to demand investigations where we want to demand them u.s. government has a very simple policy which is that war crimes are never committed by the united states or by its military that it simply does not happen and when you take that view you immediately begin to turn around and say well we can punish anyone who thinks otherwise but we have asked the i.c.c. to comment on this issue we haven't received a reply so that's how the news is looking safe on the saturday morning well from us at the top of the. you know world of big. lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the troops the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. there are good and bad at it it's the bad those in yemen the united states. the good. the cia and the u.s. military were engaged in covert actions really throughout the world. where they were assassinating populist leaders they were backing up the right way military juntas funding and arming death squads there's no phones and then more because there's always a small income for a really good. profit. join me every thursday on the daleks so i'm unsure and i'll be speaking to get us to the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you then. this is blue book broadcasting around the world and covering all aspects of our global economy in the 21st century unbridgeable or not there monticello fan in washington filling in and here's a look i will we have on deck for you today you see how the recent tight to use digital technologies for all kinds of different things as technology continues to advance regulators may now be warming more to the idea of welcoming ai international regulatory attorney miles out of words is standing by to plug into the recent comments out of the e.u. regarding
