The Current Situation clearly the saudis are to blame they have taken a move to use only benefits the only potential advantage in the general strategic michael valiant terms is the surprise tadi arabia vastly increased production to create a huge price drop with potential for further price drops were talking something some analysts fear prices could go as low as 23. 00 a barrel which would be levels than the early ninetys and this move was solely precipitated by the saudi arabia simply because the russians did not go along with the previous proposal when in fact there was room for further negotiation what princella mind wants to achieve with this remains unclear because his Oil Production increase is also compromises the saudi states ability to fulfill its welfare function and therefore to keep domestic stability but he was an observer of markets didnt see this coming the credit bubble blowing up again this is part syria of the 2008 financial crisis you know it turns out russias got the best hand at that you know a lot of coal oil going you know russias cost of energy is about 7. 00 a barrel ok saudi arabia has close to 3. 00 a barrel but russia has got no debt and theyve been buying goal meanwhile in usa and america their cost is closer to 50. 00 this will be the complete this arrangement of the american shale industry saudi arabia and america are really that position that this International Oil kolker game and i think russias all the 3 aces.

Im about to send a decree that we can sum up with the expression stay at homes there will no longer be a red zone there will no longer be a zone one or a zone 2 on our peninsula there will be at li at least that it is a protected zone. With the latest restrictions uprisings broke out in several jails demands for improved conditions prison reportedly been angered by new rules which has seen a suspension of family visits this footage shows a group of inmates on the roof of the person in the burning items and chanting freedom. The most severe revolt was seen in the Northern City of moore dinner which left 6 inmates dead in sicily the relatives of some detainees gathered near a jail concerned over a potential person in action. So while this coronavirus has been raging for almost 3 months they spoke about everything except the prisoners this is unfair because in this building they dont even have mad right now an ambulance has just gone in and we have no idea why one of the ministers to be prompted all this people have sentences of less than 5 years have to be treated with different measures at how. We discuss the prison protest as well as italy and europes response to the Coronavirus Crisis with political analyst paolo rough only he believes that the e. U. Foreign shield. Definitely they are in the prisoners interests but the old d. C. Is used to to uprise with the prisons and try to get the permissions to return home at least dont really so be says quite so disturbing events measures to be increased in the prisons because of course the inmates are very close to each other the possibility oh well the virus is there but i mean all this out crossing is. Largely not just definitely. This is a bit of far mismatch in the provisions that the doctor says but on the other hand they say that means italy is a democratic country and there are number of interests to be taken into account the e. U. Has confidence is and can intervene above the Member States but even in this case because city of the e. U. To intervene in this emergency as being very vague. Calling just the sort of solidarity among states which has not been seen. To Publishing Agency hatchet has cancelled the biography by leading film director woody allen over child sex abuse allegations the decision came out employees of the publisher walked out over the plan book with the alan has repeatedly denied the allegations against him editor in chief Margarita Simonyan says that the book should be published and its a question of freedom of speech. Who publish your book if you wish because we believe no ones life story should be silenced and that all sides deserve a fair hearing who publish your book because we trust that adults should have a free choice whether to read it or not will publish your book because you were not found guilty of any clue. Before the law but that has counted for nothing woody allen will publish your book because we believe in free speech and marrow of me too it seems that Book Publishers in the United States are becoming book burners thats after hatchet decided to torch the auto biography the us comedy icon and filmmaker woody allen this isnt cannes who mr jones was difficult to take own relationships very seriously and did not cancel books lightly now hatchett has previously published a book by a serial killer they have no problem with controversial authors however after their own employees staged a walkout they caved so whats the issue at hand allegations that woody allen molested his daughter and alan has denied these allegations for decades backing this up is ronan farrow woody allen 8 the son who happens to also be amy to pioneer and a nother client of hatchet. I was disappointed to learn through press reports that hatchett my publisher acquired woody allens memoir off to other major publishers refused to do so do not function the woody allen book my sister has never been contacted to respond to any denial or mischaracterization of the abuse she suffered at the hands of. Now there have been 2 criminal investigations into woody allen and no charges have been brought against him but over the course of 2 decades he has received 8 Oscar Nominations as well as one of those prestigious gold statues well the me too movement has taken the shine off of his success now some celebrities at this point are worried that cancel culture has gone a little bit too far the hatchett decision to drop the what do you alan book makes me very uneasy its not him i dont give a damn about mr allen its who gets muzzled next that worries me im always afraid when the mob however small and well read exercises power without any count ability process or address the tritons me much more than the prospect of woody allen some to biography hits in the bookstores where he ellen is not the only celebrity to have recently been cancelled lets find out what new yorkers think about this new climate i wouldnt have pulled it if i was them because so many other artists have done so many other crazy things and they saw things published so there may have been a tremendous amount of pressure to be politically correct whatever that means now a days social media is definitely. A place where things to have a style get a lot of the same time those allegations can also become true questions continue to be raised about what cancel culture really means and how far it should be permitted to go up and r. T. New york. President was in brussels on monday in a bid to fund a compromise to the unfolding migrant choices at the greek tookey border the visit comes amid a deepening diplomatic standoff between ankara and thats left tens of thousands stranded at the frontier the details he is our europe correspondent. Well there was no joint press conference between the turkish european sides following this meeting it fell to the European Council president Charles Michel and the European Commission president. To meet the press she said that this meeting was a good thing essentially because it showed that there were still lines of communication open essentially one of the positives that she was taken was that turkey and the e. U. Can still sit down and discuss things even if it does seem that all they can do at the moment is agree to disagree todays discussion focused on mapping the areas in which we can work both in the e. U. s interests and in turkeys interest and indeed as you said a lot goes back to the e. U. Turkey statement of 2016 which remains valid turkeys decision to tell migrants that they wouldnt try and stop them crossing into the e. U. Has resulted in some incredibly tense scenes at the border that at times have spilled over into violence. To repeat Commission President was asked a question by a turkish journalist about the actions of greek forces at the border these turkish journalist accuse greek forces of using Excessive Force against refugees and migrants found a lie and said that human rights have to be respected but also so did the integrity of borders and the use of Excessive Force is completely inacceptable and any action of the authorities has to be proportionate the european border. Have to be respected and the human fundamental rights for example the right to ask for asylum have to be respected to both go hand in hand so where does this leave us ultimately the deal that was in place is dead and the new deal hasnt been agreed to yet there may well be some negotiating about what goes into a new deal expect the turkish side to perhaps raise the issue of visa liberalization something they didnt manage to get into the 26. 00 team deal theres also talk floating around about the turkish side asking essentially for more cash how much money that would be and in what form it would ultimately be paid well that is all part of these discussions that are going to be going on as i said no deal in place at the moment these talks hopefully will lead to especially from the european side theyll be hoping that it happens leading to a new deal being in place. Geopolitics expert emmanuel tall man believes that the e. U. Wants to pressure on turkey but doesnt have the means. It was a 1st meeting but each freezer to get. Enough to no decision october so far because we are big disagreements not only between the e. U. And turkey but also we ve you and European Union who would like to appear. To show all strength in front of turkey because are turkey gratian against e. U. By you using the migration of crisis at your particular weapon but actually used very reach and the border is not to a cross. But by your migrants pushed by turkey because Greece National board of greece is kept by your greek government on greek police force he spots a reality on the ground. The longest established Latino Organization in the u. S. The league of united latin american citizens has warned of significant irregularities in democratic primary voting including closed all relocated polling stations and extremely long queues in the pending new side the gray zone and war Group Code Pink joked that if the organization of american states is so concerned about voting irregularities on the continent it should 1st monitor the u. S. Itself. The u. S. Must send an emergency Election Monitoring Team to the United States to ensure independent scrutiny of a president ial primary that has been marred by clear regularities and the systematic and highly discriminatory and struction of citizens right to vote in the United States what we actually have witnessed are major discrepancies between exit polling data in the democratic 2020 primary and the final computer count which is being conducted in a very opaque fashion weve seen in minority and poor communities people having to wait in line for 5 hours just to vote in the state of texas 750 polling places have been removed since 2012 that means there is one polling place for every 7700. 00 people and this is particularly an acute problem in latino and africanamerican areas why are there no election monitors in the us why does the oas only send election monitors to places like bolivia d to falsely allege fraud and trigger military coups if texas or New Hampshire or South Carolina were socialist latin american countries the cia through the oas would have already installed a stick right wing government like that of janine on yesterday in bolivia. In october the oas accused believe you socialist government of the regularities infocom thing which led to a film and all this is full civil removal in a military coup you know a new top level us study has found no evidence of such fruit in the former bolivian leader whos now in political asylum in argentina says that the oas stole the elections. Last year we won in the 1st round now researchers and scientists are demonstrating that there was no fraud on october 20. 3 and lets not have any fear of dictatorship brothers and sisters we are going to defeat the dictatorship with democracy with the conscience of the bolivian people. Our call for the oas to come to the United States is really a tongue in cheek kind of joke to say the oas should not be trusted and we dont think the us should be trusted as election monitors in the next elections in bolivia we need trustworthy organisations we need governments to send 9 hardness in election observers the whole world should be watching what happens in bolivia in the next election and should be denouncing that coup that took place that overthrew the government of abel morales the Un Human Rights Organization has expressed concern over the prosecution of dozens of people close to the former president of the peace now headed by a right wing conservative government led by janine and his who claim to serve interim president in there as since school taylor picks up the story. But libya was promised peace what i got was beatings bullets and a whole lot of. Was the. Once boldly waving from the balcony of the president ial palace the self appointed interim president janine anya is now ha its from angry crowds who are chanting assassin killer traitor because the woman who promised peace. I assume the presidency with a midget a fact in line with the constitution and pledge to take all measures necessary to bring peace to the country has waged war on john and as politicians and on how very own people. Was. Director of the state Radio Station was tired to a tree and humiliated for hours an incident that was reportedly documented by argentine journalist Sebastiano Moro who was found unconscious in his home a day later with injuries to different parts of his body and who died 6 days later.

But. It has also been publicly reported that the wire flares bodies of several people who were killed in the mess occurred disappeared allegedly after being collected by loan for. Officers and no further information has been provided on them says shes already cracking down on the violent supporters of the previous government but either way it seems its easier to make promises of peace when you havent had a taste of power yet and apparently bang is quite likes the taste because despite promising not to seek election may shes decided to throw her hat into the ring of to rule now washington must be pleased it was alter all vocal in its support of the democratic regime change in the latin American Country but it also considers itself the leader of the free wild so surely such reports of brutality would deserve at least a slap on the wrist no. Silence for as good as silence to the killings to the beatings to the tear gas a diluted lets all be well behaved and its not a one off pass either why was the indignation when hundreds of human rights activists and leftwing Community Leaders were killed in colombia or when there was a sarge and Police Killings in brazilian neighborhoods all when the one juror and president was allegedly linked to drug traffickers there wasnt any or it was half hearted our best and what do they all have in common all the countries are run by right wing government tourney have nice things to say about donald trump latin america has long been washingtons playground from panama to guatemala from venezuela to grenada washington has been keen to strong arm in sympathetic leaders and it seems that once theyre in human rights be damned.

It is really hard to watch because yellow face is so unacceptable now when you are somebody who was called in your childhood as i have been it is so hard to hear that word and not feel immediately a trigger reaction of how wrong it is its an issue we put up for debate with commented annoyance or new York Observer columnist andre walker. I think actually we should have access to films and videos and t. V. Programs that were made in the past even if they include content that might be deemed offensive today now the bigger problem of course is that brit box which has been launched by the b. B. C. And i. T. V. Has not been very successful and thats partly because its removed a whole swathe of programmes thats pretty people might want to watch because of wall to remarks that might seem off color today when on trade talks about using himself as a cultural counterpoint upon which we are to measure things im for 1 am getting sick and tired of having rightwing pro tory pro far right male journalists of commentators telling black people that muslims whether they should be offended or Chinese People with it should be offended a white thespian being made up in yellow face and then using offensive language which would be as a sense of his for any other cost or creed i mean we havent we just made a piece of television that actually does include a little bit of racism where mossads white males should not be allowed to comment on that its not a show or this issue that actually is a place of say it i said im sick and tired of where i mentally and i feel like i want to leave i believe its a family got to be fair and balanced about this this is Old School Comedy its a little bit out of date when you watch Something Like alf garnett to me the joke was that being a great sixties a bit ridiculous and the bit silly but at the same time you see something with Sasha Baron Cohen today and if you look at it his character bharat part of what was funny about bharat was that he had ridiculous outdated views of jewish people he was a massive found so you know caricature of racism or ridiculing it is an important part of comedy that i would stand by in terms of yeah this is you do this in david allen where this isnt this isnt about and i will as ive also heard how its actually been almost my you know my you know these ace. As far as brit box is concerned that they cant buy this kind of publicity not really you can get this kind of coverage however you know these are outdated and we do need better systems in place its all very easy to talk about the past and negative times but progress in the nature of progress is that people in the past will seem to be backward well they are a little bit backward compatible but i think theres no harm in being able to watch those programs anyway next thing without International Updates coming your way and often.
