there are live from our studios here in moscow you're watching r.t. . russia is demanding answers as to why a three year old boy died and actually at the hands of his adoptive mother in the united states. men adds to the grim statistic of twenty russian children who died after being adopted by americans with only a few weeks ago a new law came into effect in russia banning u.s. citizens from bringing russian children into their families because of abuse in the case of maxime there's little help forthcoming from the u.s. state department as maria portnoy explains they are from new york. that this case unfolded in texas according to officials three year old maxime died on january twenty first at the hands of his adoptive mother the conducted by russia's

investigative committee revealed that maksim was beaten by his adoptive mother who according to officials also fed him strong psychotropic medication and investigators say that the boy allegedly died before medics arrived at the scene but that it was his adoptive mother who had called the medics to begin with an autopsy reportedly show that maksim suffered multiple injuries to his head his abdomen and internal organs prior to his death officials say the three year old boy's arms legs and head were also covered in scratches and bruises this is just one of twenty cases when a russian adopted child dies in the custody of an american family here in the states some examples include back in two thousand and eight a russian boy died after spending nine hours in a car with temperatures reaching up to thirty two degrees celsius but his adoptive father faced up to ten years in jail for manslaughter however he was found not

guilty and walked free there was a case in which an american mother. boarded her adoptive russian son on a flight to moscow and giving him just a note saying she doesn't want to be his mother anymore in the few weeks past few weeks russia did adopt legislation banning u.s. adoptions of russian children it was criticized by many saying that it prevents russian children from having a better life in american families russian officials say but the new law it's targeting the u.s. legal system that according to russian officials has been treating cases of russian children of cruel treatment or manslaughter with it is missable leniency. given to them fortunately it's usually months although the russian child has done a study and they're going to informs us about it and want. it was five years after we died and that's how our corp with us works if they do not informants fast enough or the information is not reliable the right tens of thousands of russian adopted

children leaving in the us and we haven't got a clue about the lies of most of them no confirmation that they're all right and they're not being able to do what they do want to share it's an investigation into the death of maxime is still ongoing to find out greater details well you know the us a promise to a more thorough investigation of the abuse of russian children by their adoptive american families rebin who's written widely on international adoption so it's a long standing problem still hasn't been properly addressed this is the ongoing problem and what russia has been demanding from from the u.s. for years is follow up but the united states is not set up to follow up on adoptions once they're finalized that's been a thorn in the side of russian officials for good reason with these now twenty eight cases of abuse that have resulted in the death of these twenty four we don't

know how many other children are. living with abuse you know that haven't died from it all russia's investigative committee is now looking into how and why and that seem whose men died after watts was supposed to be a new life with a new family in his adoptive america we have more on the story authority dot com. dorian lead rafael correa has promised four more years of revolution after a sweeping victory secured in the third term on sunday the spanish charles spoke to

the reelected president i see geared up for his final four year run at the helm was especially vocal on helping the world's top whistleblower joining the sausage who remains ensconced in the ecuadorian embassy in london. sort of yes it does not practical as for the practical implication of julian assange the situation is up to europe to resolve it the problem will be solved if the u.k. granted a safe passage and hasn't any intention to disrupt the prosecution process according to the swedish justice system in spite of the nearest misinformed allegations see if they send a prosecutor to ecuador's embassy in britain and record the interrogation video which they can do it would on twist this not about is if they really have to interrogate him that julian assad was never even officially presented with charges if songes lawyer goes on it's lucky at the european court and achieves a safe passage for sanchez to staying at the ecuadorian embassy so the situation will be finally resolved it is all now in your hands but there is

a lot of arrogance involved here a neo colonialist sentiment to say they would like us to offer explanations as to why we granted him asylum and look at why on earth there's more they even want us to but truck on our decision that we will never do this it puts all of them with us upset the us britain and sweden with that decision to grant asylum to the we can expound back in august activist stand radio show host solomon conseil as the ecuadorian president is enjoying popularity at home partly because of policies which stand up to the white house. the sentiment on the ground with most ecuadorians as well as the growing sentiment throughout latin america is that those who continue to align themselves with the u.s. unconditionally are not going to find some or all the people the people who eventually are the ones who are going to be casting their ballots during these elections has been outspoken against us the new york colonization it's been an outspoken against all of the new york liberal agenda and us imperialism quite some

time folks are done with this whole all model where we're going to continue to be you know continuously improve ritually depended on us and it's it's corporate interests that those days are done hopefully it's not struggling to get its economy growing the u.k. is now knocking on india's trade doors prime minister david cameron is in the british former colony edging it to open up for more investment well u.k. delegation includes business leaders from more than one hundred companies several ministers and m.p.'s what's said to be the biggest ever team taking a broad bipartisan cameron claimed in there in britain where on track to double trade between them by twenty fifteen now he wants the u.k. to become a new delhi's part no choice investors have been craving for india to free up like a nation's business in the last week french president francois hollande was also in india to continue the story and he says britain faces challenges in me winning

open you daddy that's why it. the size of the delegation certainly show the aggressive nature all right mr cameron's drive to seek trade abroad right now prime minister cameron is not the best friends and all the rest of the specially france and germany so i think the interests of the two countries france and britain are quite separate britain feels that because of the historic kong relationship with india. britain can. perhaps fuss with the indian government however i would say this the historical memory of colonial rule doesn't sit very well with the indians still while the kids are not all right certainly not in british classrooms investigate

thank you for well nice for you no school should be a safe place martin britton a disturbing number of pupils in class armed with knives and knuckle dusters a recent nationwide study shows four hundred children a day are being suspended because of the threatening behavior marty sara first met a youth worker for whom violence at school was a home oddity. you probably end up in

a dead end job or in prison you'll be lucky to be alive when you're sixteen. you know our parrot is gone our carrot is now for no for teaching them to say anything about a stark insight into the reality facing some of britain's schoolchildren despite having one of the best education systems in the world the latest research estimates that up to full peoples a day a court with weapons in british schools guns knives and knuckle dusters just some of the items confiscated by police are. searching the school and. gone to the school. gone. around to see this first gun about to fire or schools are supposed to be a safe secure environment where the focus is on education the thing as a veil that hundreds of weapons are being seized in schools every year with a number of violent incidents on the rise the reality for many schools across the

way is that your classmate can quickly become your enemy and the school playground can be a dangerous place but it's not only the peoples who are subject to violence in london alone this being more than four thousand assaults on teachers by people's over the past year is it's a shocking indication at the levels of finding the school it becomes normal to. get involved in this you get sucked into this last laugh into violence the best approach. is it's just waking up in the morning and going for run yeah after a while it becomes normal to you stephen is now working with us charity x l p thirty nine hundred ninety six after school stabbing founded patrick regan has been helping young people tackle gun culture and violence a member could come. to me when a bulletproof vest underneath

a school uniform he said i'll be dead by thursday according to patrick it's early intervention which is key prison is forty thousand pounds a year young person's secure unit is one hundred sixty five thousand pounds a year a murder can be a million pounds a year to investigate so actually you know if we intervene earlier keep kids in education keep that sense of a safe place an environment where they can grow and flourish then it's far better and that doesn't take into consideration the emotional course you know i have to deal with people who've lost their sons and their daughters the gun and knife crime . so we have to address. the problem of violence in schools is not a new one but it's not something you're likely to read about in a school prospectus and it's particularly acute in the countries deprived in a city for schools on the whole do not want the public to know that they have a problem with children bringing weapons onto the premises so they do not readily give the information so i guess the problem is significant or they teach it can now

search people's if they suspect they're carrying a weapon many theel politicians are still failing to sit up and take notice and until more is done to address the problem the children who attend these schools will continue to learn these lessons by. r.t. . some of the stories r.t. dot com is covering right now agree v.i.p. visit you notice the french president is there was a rather quiet because a media strike has caused a news blackout very low p. that's online. banking on banksy piece by the mysterious renowned street artist which was the u.k. surfaces in the u.s. it's up for auction one that.

the universal political and legal culture the whole world is defined by the post-modern west so this is really an elite which is supposed to hide the essence of this project and it is to treat bashar and his government as members of joint enterprise so i think this is just a choreographed farce to conceal the fact that the decision in washington has already been made but luckily bashar is proving to be a much tougher nut to crack than they expected. a quick look now at some other world news starting with yemen where a military helicopter has crashed in the capital reportedly killing nine people injuring dozens more the number of casualties is expected to rise because the aircraft plunged into a building containing shops and homes happened in change square in sun up where the

palestinian state. it's rugged unremarkable landscape largely empty but full of meaning this is one of the west bank's most sensitive pieces of real estate for fourteen years plans to build here have existed but were kept on hold but all of that changed last november less than twenty four hours after the u.n. general assembly recognize palestine is a nonmember observer state television fast tracked construction plans here prompting the palestinian government to call it a slap in the face of the entire world. this plan to build here is not legal according to international law which states that when one country occupies another it can and change facts on the ground of israel is doing exactly that while also getting people out of their lands soley for the benefit of the settlers. known as the one this controversial patch of earth exists between east jerusalem where palestinians aspire to establish the capital of a future palestinian state and the huge israeli settlement of ma'ale adumim it is

the last remaining corridor between the large palestinian cities in the west bank and if plans go ahead in the israelis extend this area it would cut into a big chunk of the west bank effectively driving a wedge into the middle of any potential palestinian state critics have warned that filling the space with jewish homes amounts to a doomsday scenario effectively striking a fatal heart attack to the two state solution but for now the plan is to build a garbage dump in this valley with the waste that comes from jerusalem and then in about twenty to thirty years when it's full to build a park on top of us here you can see that palestinians fear it's part of a long term strategy to extend the one and build new israeli settlements it's not surprising this is not the first time that such a plan is submitted it is a part of ongoing policy that has been growing for years now in at the end to grab

palestinian lands but first the israelis need to get rid of the people who live here among them around three arab jerusalem neighborhoods and a hundred and fifty bedouins for whom this has been home for nearly half a century mohammad cushion is angry he says tel aviv doesn't want him and his tribe here but it also refuses to allow them to return to their original village in the negev desert from where they fled after the creation of the state in one nine hundred forty eight when a lot of them it is discrimination they give the settlers everything that they want to them and we're as we do not ask for anything besides laying in the land and they want to evacuated us and our children live surrounded by war it's like being in a prison one of them that they will grow out of and will not make peace in the future with an israeli side was a lot tel aviv complains the bed when camps were set up eagerly without permits. and stand in the way of urban planning but critics say this is just an excuse for a land grab it makes me furious this is going to harm the environment and it's

going to harm the health of the people and they make it harder and harder to find a solution for the situation demolition orders have already been issued threatening to destroy the last remnants of bedwyn life in these hills and while these radio fishel say the construction anyone if it happens at all is many years away it cuts to the heart of the israeli palestinian conflict which fundamentally is about the land and the fate of the people who live on it point to r.t. in the west bank. or marks kaiser's on the way rolling up his sleeves to slug it out with the bankers he said after the break. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something
