Now not that. Hello youre watching r. T. International im rosana lo could frank you for joining us. Now donald trump has said peace talks with the taliban have resumed the u. S. President paid a surprise visit to the buyer graham air base in afghanistan its the 1st time hes ever been to the country and he announced a substantial cut in troop numbers. Were doing a tremendous job and as you know a big part of the job is isis certainly the biggest and down and we have weve got them down very low numbers we have that totally taken care of an aversion or period of time and well see what happens the taliban wants to make a deal well see if they want to make it its going to be a real deal but well see. Made that statement after a meeting with the afghan president ashraf ghani when we heard from karen could task hes a retired u. S. Air force Lieutenant Colonel and she says a u. S. Pullout from afghanistan is long overdue seems like theyre trying to rebuild it and i do think theres a chance for i mean were wasting american dollars in lives in afghanistan truck ran on a platform of bringing the troops home hes got less than a year left to show that he can do that so i think he is motivated hes been trying to do it everywhere in small ways and in every time that he takes troops out or announces a small small reduction of troops the Defense Industrial complex the congressional complex goes ballistic on him no matter what he does he realizes he will be criticized he might as well just do what he wants to do what he wants to do is bring our troops home you know we support bringing the troops home but congress does not you know we certainly the United States is not going to do 30 years in afghanistan 20 years is enough theres no desire for that i think even the corporate defense folks have made the money that they think they can make its time to leave afghanistan is long overdue. The nato secretary general young soul sumburgh has met with a man well mccrone in paris and thats after the french president calls the stuff by describing the Transatlantic Alliance as brain dead arties eager standoff has the latest. Well indeed the 2 were emanating tension as they were trying to keep a straight face with a less than a perfect game again even as they were delivering their statements Standing Shoulder to shoulder to each other it was obvious that one is way more optimistic about nato than the other have a listen nato is a Strong Alliance but more than that we are adopting it we are agile and we are active so we are responding to a changing world and the reason why i need to use the most successful launch of these 3 is that we have been able to change in the world is changing and thats exactly what we have done over the last years those are exactly what we are doing to see question so i asked our open questions that we have not resolved peace in europe the i never position the relationship with russia in turkey who is the enemy so until we resolve these issues let us not negotiate whether coasts sharing a burden sharing is this or that maybe we need a wake up call. This is effectively the french president refusing to retract his previous comments about nato experiencing brain death this is the exact quote by him from a couple of weeks ago and that was not the only instance one of the 21 the secretary general of nato and the french president werent exactly seeing eye its why for instance young stoltenberg has retreated repeated leave that while the alliance the allies in the block do have some issues that they do have their differences he reiterated that well they agree on the fundamental issues but nato is relationship with russia is one of those fundamental issues and thats where emanuel mccrone again in on 1st of all those members of the bloc who refuse to have or any sort of dialogue with russia who refuse to see russia as a partner this is where emanuel mccrone called on a more open and a more friendly stance and a more friendly relationship with moscow that. We want to loose it robust and demanding dog. I like with russia with neither naivety nor complacency our alliance is based on a certain common history and geography the nato secretary general he also emphasized how he believes that europe is effectively defenseless without nato that europe cannot defend itself well i talked to some of the french citizens and my colleagues in berlin did the same to find out whether or not they realize how crucial nato is for you to be honest. We dont really know whether they do. Want this freighter i came in to use my last fun i found it is unknown and then to the design moment to certain countries. I dont know what all achievements well i think it was necessary after the ball. But nowadays. Its not important anymore i think basically. No war the last. 60 years 70 years i dont know to be honest i dont know since the eastern part of course was always down i dont know she needed to natal was historically beneficial for us but of course we have a completely different situation now i should say such Public Opinion goes in stark contrast with for instance what Angela Merkel the german chancellor had to say the other day when she said that she believed that nato now is as important if not more important than it was during the cold war and by the way she was also among those who criticized mccraw on for his brain comments so clearly today young stoltenberg and there were emanuel mccrone didnt come any closer to resolving their differences but next week nato is celebrating its 70th birthday so well see for that parties overshadowed by all the differences that this big family has. A convicted murderer in germany has won the right to have his name and other details are raised from web searches under the right to be forgotten the man who was sentenced for a double murder back in 1902 and served 20 years in jail the case and his name were widely reported in the media and he claims his right to privacy and ability to develop his personality have now been infringed germanys highest court agreed and tech giants like google will have to remove the mans details from search results the law states that any european citizen can ask for links containing Sensitive Information to be raised from Search Engines since being enacted in 2014 google says more than 800000 requests have been made to remove more than 3000000 web. Agents earlier our guests debated the case. Well they certainly deserve a 2nd chance but what they dont deserve is to have the historic crimes of theyve gone wiped off that no one can find them this is clearly an attack on free speech freedom of information and its International Censorship because the the rights of those that he killed the families the victims should never be forgotten but what he wants to do he wants his past to be completely wiped clean but once you start to we historically vents then you need to be right in what historic what history was this person should have a slave why clean on the fact that the still showing up is going to be discriminated against or it could push him back into a life of crime if hes not given the right to leave his old life but a lot behind if you go for a job you still got suits you still got to give your past previous convictions which will discriminate against you anyway but the thing is theres no point releasing the individual from prison if you still going to lie if you still want to live in the past im all for giving a 2nd chance and like say the rehabilitation of offenders should should help sometimes its down to employers having confidence in the judicial system to corrective behavior for people to come out a changed person and sometimes you need confidence in businesses to give them a chance but the problem is when you start to hide your Historic Events then that adds another dimension to the people will look into employer if hes trying to hide this what else is he trying to hide this person trying to better themselves the trying not trying to raise the past the trying to be given a fair shot of the way of thinking you know what clean slate start again this is me now not then do you want to raise the posse could change names always off the internet could just change a name if they want to eventually like let me. Now i do want to if you keep repeating yourself but the fact is you can change your name and you can just do exactly that anywhere if. I change my name for example when your gold mine is called you can have a go at the argument with no if you if you actually go for jobs where they need to do certain disclosures because of the certain criteria you have to say if you change your name or you know by other names so that they can do a proper search yet serve you serve you that society you released as a new person with a with hopefully with a new mindset you should be given every opportunity so that your past is stricken from the record like ability to go in for jobs it will always come up so theres no getting away from it just about being a new person produce produce project yourself in a different lie and try to become a productive member of society the criminal may have served the time they may want to move on the families cant move on its still there and the should never try and wipe it because if this try and hide their past what else are they going to try and hide in the future. For a video from a rally in paris last saturday raising awareness of violence against women has gone viral it shows a route that broke out when women from a feminist group called nemesis collective joined the march. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. Man emesis activists were holding up placards saying 52 percent of rapists are immigrants a figure taken from 824000 survey the movement says lax immigration policies in france are what many women at risk they were confronted by other demonstrators who started booing and tearing up their placards the nemesis activists have since been subjected to a wave of online anger theyve been brought to fascists and racists and the group claims are the feminists want to silence them but we talk to one of the campaign a sue asked us to distort her voice to hide her identity. We arrived at the demonstration with our plaque cards and started to protest and within minutes other demonstrators saw a mass of sham placards it was cletus quickly we wanted to cross in a calm way now we are afraid we know that our masses shes truthful but there are people who are aggressive to us the violence against women the protest raises questions a demonstration with the slogan all of us turns out not to be for all of us at all since we have been treated like fascists i am asking what is the basis for this do this women know the definition of fascism i am angry about this attack being treated in that way we are feminist movement we denounce any kind of violence people speak about freedom of expression but do they mean it we have questions to women who pretend to be feminists who say that they represent other women well another nemesis activist we spoke to told us that rapists of migrant origin are not prosecuted enough she also asked to remain anonymous. I was in the rage we went to this demonstration because we wanted to defend womens rights we think not enough is said on the subject of migration and when they attacked us like we were fractious it just shows that they attacked themselves it is a real problem that in france a woman cannot go out on the street where she wants because of migrants when i am on the street im often harassed by men and their nationalities obvious rapists of migrant origin is not prosecuted enough we need to tell the world that everyone should be punished regardless of this skin color there are several types of threats that we get in social media where kids of fascism and racism these people from the far left do not want to accept the reality they want to prevent us from speaking up. On other news this hour the us president dont show has pardoned 2 turkeys saving them from being served up for thanksgiving the lucky birds a cold bread and butter in the pollens a part of the 30 year old white house tradition trump also used the occasion to crack some jokes about impeachment but while the president might be enjoying himself the us media has cost me a light on the whole thanksgiving holiday as arties done a quarter explain last hour. What i say thanksgiving whats the 1st thing that comes to mind turkey p can i warm hugs with seldom seen relatives or you can forget all that this year thanksgiving is cancelled or at least the media says theres too many pilgrims killing natives involved too many children appropriating Indigenous Culture a big Carbon Footprint is left behind and of course peter thinks its on ethical thanksgiving can be the scariest time of the year if youre a turkey more than 45000000. 00 of these fascinating birds killed to disgrace thanksgiving tables each year. Turkeys you dont want to mess with them not after the toms river turkey rebellion flock of wild turkeys are terrorizing integers a Community Photo show how the 20 plus pound birds can be dangerous blocking traffic on yorktown boulevard some residents feel threatened as they walk out their door turkey might be the centerpiece of the traditional thanksgiving dinner table but p. Cand pie is almost just as important too bad this year theyre coming from china even a loving embrace could now be off limits next time think twice before hugging your daughter reminder she doesnt owe anyone a hug not even at the holidays they could without you even realizing it also the time when you daughter gets their own idea of balance concerned and physical affection and the beef gravy on top family chats going around the table and naming what were thankful for is a great springboard into small talk with our Political Climate nowadays its no doubt a slippery slope into dinner table debates good thing weve got a former state Department Official to tell us what to do like every family we have people of all political stripes and somehow my loving family members find a way to keep a lid on it at family gatherings that has probably been the saving grace i will be tapping into the common power of a cocktail i would advice others to do the same thanksgiving is having a tough time finding its place in our new wolk world who knows if well even have anything left to celebrate ive never thought about turkeys but theyre raised for this purpose theyre bred for that purpose my family is a little bit divided religiously but we usually put our differences aside despite the differences that people may have you know they come together and they say what theyre thankful for you know with the other aspect of it on you know the native americans. Take that down as history however in the present day modern time should be no. You know follow along the traditions of thanksgiving i can understand for some people maybe they dont feel the need to celebrate it but im not everyone so people can do it makes accountable. Around 40 people have been killed in the past 24 hours in iraq during mass rioting over corruption and dire Living Standards at least 25 people were killed when Security Forces opened fire on a crowd in the Southern City of syria the iraqi Prime Minister has tried to quell public anger by promising far reaching reforms protesters are refusing to back down in the calling on the government to resign at least 350 people have died and thousands more have been injured since the rallies began last month protesters also stormed the consulate of iran in the holy city of manchester and set the building on fire they swapped the brain and fry for an iraqi one amid shouts of iran out in response the authorities declared a citywide curfew journalist an al wanted to contribute to our risk told us outside forces all manipulating iraq. Its interesting when they say that you know theres when the americans say that there is a rainy in influence or any intervention you know america basically is an Occupying Force and america is miles and miles away so you know its i think its very strange to hear an american statements about iran intervening some of these protesters who went in bird the burn the iranian consulate i mean ok what about the the americans what about the american role what about the saudi role what were seeing clearly is you know certain anti iranian regional powers and world powers are taking advantage of this movement to steer this protest movement into an anti iranian direction basically taking advantage of the some popular demands to settle some old scores. The Global Chemical weapons watchdog has passed a budget for 2020 despite objections from both russia and china moscow noted the plans include funds for Energy Summit activities referring to the o. P. C. W investigation and Identification Team since being set up last year the team has investigated chemical instance and apportion blame countries including russia and syria say that such activities politicize the organization but the u. S. Envoy says those nations just want to cover up crimes unfortunately the Russian Federation has played a central role in this cover up russia and syria and they sit with us here but they stand apart from us in a fundamental way they continue to embrace chemical weapons. Well earlier a leaked internal o. P. C. W email showed an unnamed employee was concerned that the organization misrepresented fact over the duma incident the supposed chlorine gas attack in the syrian city last year led to u. S. French and british missile attacks on suspected chemical weapons facilities while o. P. C. W. Investigators had no mandate to assign blame a joint team pointed the finger at the Syrian Government and both damascus and moscow said from the outset that the chemical attack never occurred the Russian Ambassador to the o. P. C. W. Gave his response to u. S. Accusations in an exclusive interview with r. T. If im new expression embrace the weapons we are certainly not but once you embrace chemical weapons let me remind you of that the Russian Federation is complete to be full terms of the destruction of its ch
