Good morning from russia live here at the new center in moscow its kevin i mean this i was headlines and some more detail for you that and 1st off a new day and a wave of new confrontations between the United States and china to report beijing is weighing up its response to donald trump stripping hong kong of its preferential trade and economic state. The u. S. Nor maliciously denigrates hong kong is now. National security legislation threatens to impose sanctions on china and seriously violates International Law and basic rules of International Relations it is gross interference in Hong Kong Affairs and chinas internal affairs in order to safeguard its own legitimate interests china will make the necessary response and impose sanctions on relevant u. S. Personnel and entities and the board of this to china this morning not only responding to donald trump revoking hong kong as trade privileges but its also because he signed off Bipartisan Legislation to sanction chinese officials and businesses do all stemming back to chinas new security law which also effects on kong its complicated it out for us caleb maupin. The special relationship between hong kong and the United States has come to an end donald trump has officially ended the french french will trade relationship that hong kong has with the United States which has enabled the city to become quite prosperous kankar will now be treated the same as male in jeddah no special privileges no special economic trade brant and no export of sensitive technologies in addition to that as you know were placing massive tariffs and have placed very large tariffs on china 1st time thats ever happened to china and from said this will mean one last competitor for the United States now trump also said that officials who are quote extinguishing hong kongs freedom will be slapped with sanctions now he indicated this in the past many have suspected that sanctions would be imposed after months of protest in hong kong against the Chinese Government on the mainland and some of the new policies. Now donald trump didnt pass up the opportunity to blame china for coded 19 which he referred to as the plague trump also have boasted that he is personally responsible for encouraging a number of countries to boycott Huawei Technology perhaps he was alluding to britains recent announcement that the country will be boycotting and banning all while away products by 2027 from the end of this year Telecoms Operators must not buy any 5 to equipment from her wallet and once the telecoms keratin this process it will be it and illegal for them to do so despite the fact that trump called the press conference to address a very serious form. Policy issue he spent quite a bit of time raking over the coals job by his rival in the upcoming november president ial election this is by bidens gun radical left wed listen to joe biden hundreds of thousands of additional lives would have been lost he described the rise of china as quote a very positive development not a positive development not for us of many observers are wondering if until november every president ial announcement will seem just a little bit like a Campaign Message in a mop and artsy new york review from china from beijing china International Relations expert vic to go on the line one of victor thanks for the time today so whatever the political squabbling going on this is going to have far reaching ramifications for the economy and the people of hong kong 1st off isnt it. Well i would believe. After the in egland of the Hong Kong National security last ability and peace would be restored being on people in mongolia each or greater safety for their lives for their work and the situation in our goal will stabilize this is really going to be the megatrends now all those countries watch opposed to the National Security law of show me where these stand are they supporting secession Cindy Sheehan terrorism or colluding with Foreign Countries to commit these offenses these offenses are bobs and incriminated in almost all the countries and regions in the world so lets have the ones sane stand rather than a block or a city well as you say there are a lot of people around the world that dont see such a Bright Future for hong kong but going to the lesson of this trade deal that the special relationship of course trades a 2 way thing and weve talked about what it meant how it may affect hong kong and all of those are going to affect the United States theres a lot of trade between the 2 theres about what a trillion dollars trade between the. Us in hong kong is one of the highest in the world. Well as a general point any opposition to free trade free commerce is a bad scene and it will be mutually destructive not between whole com and the United States actually the United States is running a trade surplus so if it really wants to kill a golden goose that the american export is will suffer all kinds also one of the most important almost season bases for the headquarters of the American Companies and i hope the americans will not play with fire because it will burn themselves and therefore i think that has make sure that stability in hong kong is restored and everyone can make Good Business sort of calm and everyone will really enjoy safety and peace yeah but how do the relations going to recover from this when china says its ready in countermeasures how are you going to pick up from this i was china and america and britain in a minute with the latest 5 g. Think were going to pick up from this is not going to be easy is it. Well between china and the United States we all know that war is and should not be an option so no one is trigger happy i hope between china and the United States now as for trade i think washington is in a desperate mold it is really trying to do whatever it can to make sure that china does not develop but thats it thats impossible because the Great Development of china is unstoppable and irreversible so i think in about 10 years time or 15 years time the United States will need to come to terms with the reality that they china weve only got 5 times but weve only got 30 seconds i really quickly want to get in the britain and the decision to chinas while away from the 5 g. Network theyre on top of what weve just been talking about re america how does how does that news going to be greeted in china than. Well this u. K. Decision is very unfortunate and it is very very much to be condemned by china and i think ironically this warhorse the u. K. Telecom operators to build up as big as inventory of why we equipment as possible before year end and to roll out of the 5 g. As quickly as possible in the coming 7 years so the policy actually would be counterproductive it may actually be while we spread region kate in a very ironic way that the British Consumers eventually will rise up to involved with their foot so i think the United Kingdom is really declining. To have belittled britain because it shows that its no longer a very much independent Foreign Policy country its becoming a lackey of the United States but orton vig circulated there victor coach professor at the Sochi University in beijing things here time today. Very much for having me. The us military facing damning allegations of systemic Sexual Violence in its ranks theres greater scrutiny now since the recent tragic killing of soldier the end of an s. Again the 20 year old vanished in late april her body was found 2 weeks ago. Partly complain to a family that she was sexually harassed while serving at fort hood in texas fellow soldiers suspected of killing vanessa with a hammer committed suicide as lloyd foresman tried to arrest him prosecutors also charge another woman believed to be is a compass more vanessas heartbroken sister wants to know now why commanders did not do more. I dont. Joke. 1st moved to chiefs dismissed the Sexual Harassment allegations and substantiated but last week his mation wide outrage grew the u. S. Army secretary ordered a review of the command climate in culture at the base while the texas representative in congress confirmed indeed that the allegations of sexual abuse would also be scrutinized for nurses killing has led to service over to come forward with similar harrowing stories of Sexual Assaults theyve been talking to social media to call it what they describe as a grain harassment in the u. S. Military former soldier trista it was also stationed in texas talk to us through her experience i got invited to a party off base and was told that it was a Birthday Party for one of the other girls that was going to start class with us at that same time we had not yet started class i made myself a journey and the other guys wanted to see what i needed and so i passed it around and when i got it back it didnt seem as though anyone had drink anything but i just kind of thought that was different but didnt really think much of it and kind of felt as though i could feel myself kind of blacking out and then the next morning when i got up to use the restroom and take a shower i realized how much pain i was actually in and i was still bleeding and i just you know i kind of was wondering well what happened and i tried really hard to remember and i couldnt the case actually has not developed i went back to legal help and they told me after about 4 months investigating that there was no evidence and that the case would be dropped. Well the pentagon issued a report in april of the moment a number of claims of Sexual Assault in the u. S. Military christer again says plenty of cases a glossed over and that independent investigations of if a crucial. I saw a lot of females that i actually worked with that experience harassment and assault and even rape so i just thought it was crazy that this is actually the culture of it and no one is talking to each other about it so it it is happening and its happening a lot. In just the amount of control that the military has to keep it kind of quiet is is what is surprising there needs to be an alternative to reporting there needs to be a civilian organization thats not affiliated with with the military whatsoever i believe that theres they do claim that theres resources off base that you can go to but theyre still affiliated with the military theyre still able to kind of silly but under the rug to them believe just a completely separate organization where women can go and i believe that there shouldnt be any type of punishment for coming forward and speaking out. I just believe that it needs to bring more awareness to the civilian part of you know the community.

Sense of Justice George freud back in may the backlog of movement has swept across the western world not just rallying against Police Brutality or institutional racism but challenging symbols of racism to. Here in britain the campaign has expanded from toppling statues of slave traders to exposing old banks accused of profiteering from the slave trade in fact some even argue that londons entire financial district was built on the back of slavery and colonial oppression pos directors of high street banking giants including lloyds and even barclays and even the bank of england and fortunes from the trades. The city of london as we know it would not have been without the slave trade london firms played a crucial role in financing trade with colonies that includes funding the transatlantic passage of african captives in appalling conditions to be sold to slaves and its not Just Companies under the microscope that comes as 10 to 20 percent of britains wealthiest people could be identified as having significant historical links to slavery the blackguards much away is called a mirror up to those institutions forcing them to confront their past ties to imperialism while many have apologized is it enough. Apologies are not enough apologies are stage one of an effort that says we have knowledge of the harm weve caused and were prepared to enter phase 2 which is a discussion and negotiations about how to repair that and the suffering that continues to be the legacy of slavery in the caribbean today the amount the British Government power to pay off slave owners who were deemed to have property was so large only repaid in full in 2015 in fact its the modern equivalent of 17000000000. 00 pounds means wasnt a tax is contributed to the abolition of slavery but is that something to be trumpeted is this really something to be regarded with a collective pride and surely its now the time for countries arent descendants of slaves to see the same kind of compensation with banks coughing up the money they have to pay back the money is because the moneys not going right and so does this is some excuse they. Have to give back this money for them to contribute back to what they took from. What happened in the far far. More be a good idea for.
