i welcome it's good to have you company you're watching r.t. this morning with me andrey farmer. the british government is beginning its charm offensive on scotland to keep it part of the u.k. with foreign secretary william hague chosen as the chair leader he's in edinburgh later to speak about why scotland and its all money should remain ruled by london r.t. sarah firth breaks down he's expected to convince the naysayers. mr hague's going to be trying to lay out in foreign policy terms why he feels it's preferable the sculls stay put that is the basis of his argument is going to be this that a vote for independence is not going to be a vote for business as usual is going to bring about stances change in

a suit he's going to try and highlight some of the possible negative implications that that could bring of course it's a stance of change that's exactly what days within the yes campaign those who want to see an independent scotland want to bring about say he's westminster terminating economic policy dominating resources and they say they want to break that stranglehold now they have been political with both sides within the yes campaign for example has pointed to recent treasury reports in which is the pendants scotland was placed in the same category as iceland sight for us and ireland all of which of course have had economic crises and now those within the yes campaign say these sort of tactics are scaremongering to try and persuade more people to vote against independence of course no more fiercely the debate about independence get

played out than in the discussion when it comes to oil now this to senior member of governments is missing that school and to become independent it would have a major resource on its hands another member of government would also go as far as to say that possibly in the past the u.k. government had downplayed the value of that asset it's quite hard to get a gauge when you'll hear of exactly where the school system people a place that it's quite a divided mix and you talk to people on the streets today when that speech happens we'll be bringing you all the latest from mass and it's thought we're going. to hit that point really hurt him that the u.k. still get together and it's the hague will be telling scotland that saving face scotland because they said in the s.n.p. this is in the yes campaign thing but still everything to play for the recent polls to suggest about a third of scots support independence compared to fifty nine percent who want to

remain in kerry but scottish and pay angus macneil insists the nation can do well on its own by financially and politically london should be well practiced in this the empire has gone the colonies have gone about fifty nations have become independent of london london's an old hand at this and ireland's moved on doesn't want to come back to even the tiny island man of the coast of the u.k. doesn't want to be ruled from london either you know they're going through a process and that may be good for a learning curve the find it difficult yet again but of course the practicalities to consider as well how you're going to fund yourself is the. balance the books the u.k. government's releases this paper warning scotland will suffer a banking collapse just like cyprus or island if it becomes independent what's that the united kingdom government should do were we are they haven't funded themselves as two thousand and one is twelve years they haven't balance the books scotland is actually eight point four percent of you keep a relation to a nine point nine percent of the taxation of the u.k.

we're very confident we can peter and we are but incidentally we also believe england can too one thing is certain this independence of scotland is going to like the other hundred forty two more that went through in the past scotland is probably the best planned ever i can think of another nation that's gone through so much planning and so much cross-examination in the lead up to its independence so all bodes well for the future on the scaremongering story such as how could scotland pay for itself for goodness sakes it's absolute nonsense. another large protest has been dispersed overnight by police using water cannons in turkey's capital ankara this after wednesday saw dozens of arrests across the country as authorities bid to stop three weeks long unrest. witnessed this latest crackdown. this crossroads in the center of ankara was filled with protesters just a few minutes before it might be hard to believe it now is totally empty you can see one of the police vehicles up there still using its water cannon against the

remaining few protesters the police charged in here with two vehicles firing tear gas everyone in the square choking on that having to dive for cover and water cannon blasting everything around the branches funding off trees and debris and water all over the streets protesters who had been gathered to try and demonstrate their anger a perceived forward terrorism by prime minister. of turkey coming to scatter into side streets all around here very shocked by the sudden on rush of these police vehicles in this particular spot has marked nightly confrontations between police and protesters some might say some onlookers might say really proving what the testers might be saying the police really over reacting to some of the protests here it's not quite known what exactly did set off the police the protesters

absolutely saying it's this kind of pretty police response that has them out on the streets protesting in the first place mr erdogan one of his supporters for their part calling some of the protesters terrorists implicating possible foreign involvement in their funding and saying that they don't represent a large part of the turkey turkish populace he does have a fair point in that around half of the turkish populace polls indicate do support him. well tom did manage to catch up with and then pay for turkey's ruling party kelly he said police were forced to resort to tougher measures against protesters to distinguish here between protesters and troublemakers and members of illegal organizations were trying to create havoc within and within the city of stumble and some other cities in turkey. the police has a lawful rights to use. the law given means to them to disperse

of these troublemakers and vandals and now. if you're looking for a balance i would say the police has to has to act within its law given powers that is a balance for the police however decisions we're trying to use their democratic rights to protest have to do this peacefully if you're resorting to violence and using mult of cork tails and other kinds of weaponries against officials who are. given the duty by the state to protect public order then of course these law these law enforcement officers have the right to use the force that is given to them by law within the law. to pos in the anchor upright yes and she says police target pace for protestors and extremists indiscriminately . protests turn into like

a stunning protest so people just like. they are in a place for like you know couple of. like half an hour an hour and then like this is how we try to continue to protest. the fire going on there like you know some people try to use this situation and try to express or do extreme things probably. doesn't differentiate like. some citizens just using their democracy democratic rights and the walls that they're trolling the stone the force feeding of prisoners at guantanamo bay prison has led some doctors to call in the facilities medical staff not to treat detainees and allow them to go on hunger strike the world medical association has declared force feeding is not ethically acceptable and believes those starving themselves need to have their injustices addressed. as this report. the new way and the world

medical association demand access for independent doctors to guantanamo detainees more than one hundred fifty doctors including from the us have signed an open letter to grow obama urging him to allow access to independent medical examinations and advice here's what they write it is clear that the detainees do not trust their military doctors they have very good reason for this as you should know from the current protocols of the joint task force guantanamo which those doctors are ordered to follow the orders they receive or ultimately your orders as their commander in chief without trust safe and acceptable medical care of mentally competent patients is impossible the above mentioned protocols described the procedure of for speeding that the doctors are obliged to administer at guantanamo it involves a tube inserted through the nose and down the throat of the detainees on hunger strike and those who are being force fed at guantanamo describe it as

a very painful procedure to which they gave no consent actually it is the opinion of the u.n. commission on human rights that force feeding is a lawful and torture when it's clear that it's a protest and a last resort for the detainees because before the hunger strike became impossible to ignore one tunnel was out of sight out of mind and washington was happy to keep it that way the u.n. has repeatedly called on the obama administration to stop the practice of force feeding and fix the underlying issue of this hunger strike which is indefinite detention the entire international community has called on the us to either try these people or let them go shopping tubes down their noses doesn't fix the problem . well the number of guantanamo bay detainees being force fed has been growing rapidly over the past few months and according to the prisons officials in march this year of the thirty seven hunger strike is eleven we're receiving and through feeds possible what a month and you have a dramatic increase it's jumped to one hundred hunger strikers with twenty one of

those being force fed and last month three more people join the hunger strike on fifteen more had to be given food against their will so this brings us to today with one hundred four prisoners refusing food i'm forty four being force fed so i can i interest terry can be says coercive action can cause an irreparable mental damage the force feeding is an entirely toxic situation where the individuals tied it strapped to a restraint chair the tube is forced down their throat they tend to vomit in that situation when food is forced into their body they're being in voluntarily medicated with medications that have very dangerous side effects all of these become traumatic memories as does placement in a restraint chair of the forcing of the two down their throat and this then becomes lasting memories that cannot be integrated into their personality and it causes ongoing symptoms even if they are to be released the prisoners know that the doctor

is acting in a cruel and actually in a way that constitutes torture those doctors should not be participating in the force feeding and when they do so it's a gross violation of x. . two faced on the two state solution not off the is right and competent members coalesce to give the palestinians their own nation nothing but hopeless we explain in a minute how the peace process could be right. speak

your language. programs and documentaries in arabic it's all here on the. reporting from the world talks about six of the r.p. interviews intriguing stories are you. trying. to find out visit. but again brazil is saying it's was prior to us in over a decade at the moment spot by high taxes corruption on the extravagant cost of the

upcoming football world cup. reports on the unrest. brasil is still under pressure due to the unprecedented public protests which have been taking place all over the country for the past ten days conflicts more to sport itself bhalo where there have been recent by human rights as the demonstrators try to take over the local government's main building where they faced off with the police the brazilian government said it will deploy the national public security force in five cities hosting the fee for a football tournament in an effort to contain the on going protests in the city of four to listen at least two people have been injured near a city and were riot police attempted to prevent them from entering the site the demonstrators plaint after being tear gassed to demonstrate their smain grievances to increasing public transport peace in several brazilian cities and also the extraordinary public but for the two thousand and fourteen world cup a.t.t.'s

including cell paulo and rio de janeiro have been forced by the demonstrations to abandon the transport free rights however thousands of people that have been joining the protests have introduced new complaints towards president dilma rousseff government such as one day defined as the poor conditions of the education and health care systems president rousseff started that she was impressed with the demonstrations which according to her are taken into account by her government says they represent the country has a working democracy however protesters have decided to remain on the streets and organize your rallies until definitive solution to day concerns is found. so let's have a look at why you think the unrest is happening at the moment in brazil lease or this is the results of our online poll at the moment and just under half of you forty seven percent believe it's all down to government inefficiency and corruption

and twenty five percent of you believe it's a foreign plot to try and destabilize latin america fifteen percent believe it's due to those rises in public transport fees as well as the rising costs of trying to host the world cup and then the remainder that's thirteen percent say it's all down to the general global economic slowdown you can try and change the figures if you like let us know what you think try and cash your vote at r.t. dot com now israel's commitment to a two state solution to achieve peace with the palestinians is in serious doubt recent comments from some senior israeli cabinet members suggest the ruling coalition staunchly opposed is the idea the country's deputy defense minister danny done on said moves to promote it will be buried in parliament in a statement was later echoed by the israeli trade minister naftali bennett he declared the two state option had hit a dead end and also called for

a swift annexation of territories in the west bank and this could cast a shadow on international efforts to bring israel and palestine to the negotiating table u.s. secretary of state john kerry is planning his fifth trip to the region to try to bring the two sides together but the war of words means little to schools of suffering palestinians whose homes are constantly being cornered by walls of the concrete. reports. the walls might be coming down in the race to the world but here in israel they're going up there's one along the country's border with egypt there's a fifty one kilometer one around gaza there's one in the pipeline next to jordan and the newest frontier is being fortified along the lebanese and syrian borders and then there is the most famous the controversial so-called separation wall that encircles the west bank of course it's us the for. defending itself and preparing itself for possible future attacks towards the borders of israel.

and also it seems from attacks even closer to home it's not only on the borders but also here inside israel twenty minutes away from tel aviv jews and arabs have lived side by side in the israeli city of lard for generations but in one part of the city they're now living on opposite sides of a concrete wall we met a time the horn on the jewish side he builds wars for a living but they're usually the decorative type used for exhibitions and parties he and his jewish neighbors battled hard even dipping into their own pockets to build this wall our neighbors next door. they're making a lot of trouble for us the people here there are farmers and they have land growing. with or something else and they used to. burn everything. drugs they come to our house. for inventing.

drugs they want a lot has the highest homicide rate in israel police say it's because of infighting among arab families but the families say that's nonsense. there is no reason to build this war besides racism they build it because we are arabs it bothers me they did not leave us any room and they do not even on this land. abdullah. one of those who now finds himself on the wrong side of the wall. jews fear arabs and always build a wall if there are no arabs who don't build a wall that. is really is argued it was all meant to keep terrorism and illegal infiltration out both dropped ninety percent after the barriers went up but palestinians insist the wars keep them under siege and are used as an excuse for annexing palestinian land walls in the name of the game of. virtual wars and rewards the feeling is that it's. more and more

getting into the good tool there is still will be the war there are immigrants from africa will be the war every single be solved by building a war and above all the world is against us let's build a wall israel's physical isolation gets clearer by the day a country there could soon be completely enclosed by steel concrete and barbed wire policy are for r.t. in large city israel we've plenty more stories at our web site at r.t. dot com right now the world's fastest growing economic giant goes to extremes for a cleaner future china introduces execution for those who dare to break the nation's environmental protection laws also online mega upload founder kim dot com accuses the u.s. government for what he calls the largest massacre of data in the history of the internet you can find out about that and many more stories at r.t.

dot com. the shaky peace process in afghanistan is under threat with president karzai suspending talks with the u.s. on a new security deal the move comes in reaction to washington's u.-turn decision to enter direct negotiations with the taliban the first discussions are due later today the militant organizations new office and cats are but only hours after saying it's ready. for talks with washington the taliban claimed responsibility for a deadly assault on american ad bags the latest in a string of attacks meanwhile afghan forces have taken over control of the country's security and paving the way for a complete u.s. pullout in twenty four to the con helen and a cold mist at the online journal foreign policy in focus is skeptical about the peace talks. there's a war going on we haven't declared cease fire and if we're not going to declare a cease fire why should the towel declare a fix our country is more unstable than it's ever been. d.n.a.

that states is in a position where in the process of trying to retreat from the country they have had their supply lines attacked and the united states lost this war this is them an unmitigated disaster and essentially what the united states is trying to do is to stop the hemorrhaging but it's the same time still maintain some kind of presence in afghanistan whether the taliban will allow that that's not clear. global big business is gathering in some pages to discuss what's happening in the world economy with russia's political and business elite will business correspondent katie is rubbing shoulders with them and joins us live right maggie i was in. my that roundtable as we know all so thank

you to eliminate the economic agenda at the g eight summit in northern ireland this week and the topic is very much dilma knowing its way to st peter's right kate and i'm going to get some professional analysis on the topic from i've been it's not so from athlone investment rates right it's give me the lay down beside me what it's like in the g eight summit possible and noise you'll be on deals so why they said. that. the offshore it's a shame is an issue that comes back from time to time. in the world economic history the reality in russia is that until we have investors savers who have a high degree of confidence and trust in the way russia is administered you're going to have a real difficult time addressing the officer as. if you are a big challenge here in russia because the banking sector is so reliant upon

official banking business you have a tough with john paul one when russia began to accumulate capital globally it was impossible to accumulate capital within russia there were good reasons for having offshore accounts and russia had whole industries up as we know through up in offshore zones most notably cyprus that service this money that's value added on top of just a place to keep your money but we have now in russia is in theory a banking system that's more than capable of taking that money back and using it domestically but what you do not have is confidence by investors that this would be in their interest and so the government's task in the authorization is not just to present to talk but it's. building trust among its own people among savers among investors and the government is far so far away from doing so i can it's about the general theme of the forum it's day one about the right that getting a new economy the resolutely said we've pretty far away from that right now as to

what the senate fights of its recess said we need to be so great here in the us as well how long do you see the situation going on right now let's say there's a pretty strong consensus among most people who are attending this forum about what needs to be done here first it's the old old story of not rule of man but rule of law secondly it's on knotting these entrenched the beats. in polls condominium in iraq receive it so that people have an opportunity to develop businesses without on appearance from incumbents these kinds of things are well established the good news is that the russian economy still has growth that. there are sectors of the russian economy that are still quite vibrant and building building on those successes is something that we'd all like to see for the regime

turn to turn towards him people thank you very much indeed and cuts that from outside investment great place where they think and seize the day from the same people that international economic forum and events looking forward to it thank you katie katie compliment live from the same page spoke but we're going to continue with the economic thing because up next it's max carson and he as usual is ruffling the feathers of the world's financial alibis. i know they track approval ratings of the presidents of various countries by did though they still research the approval ratings of former presidents twice like gallup poll that says that george w. bush has been slowly growing in his approval numbers since leaving office in fact

his numbers have increased by seventeen percent amongst independents and even his in three rival democratic voters have given him fourteen percentage points of popularity i think this may be due to the fact that obama's magic has worn off and people are getting fed up with things belonging for the bush days is insane if you are one of the people who has recently decided that bush is awesome then please tell me how he differs from obama true obama can pronounce ninety nine percent of the words on a teleprompter in front of him but both presidents have let expensive wars with questionable objectives bush gave us the patriot act and obama continued it with the n.d.a. both of them seem to like their drones and massive government spending and expansion i don't know i don't think that just because obama's was flawed that somehow makes bush's brain into some sort of triumph but that's just my opinion.

welcome to the kaiser report max kaiser it's come to my attention that a year was recently spotted flying past the kaiser report window.
