italy loses patients would be uncontrolled flow of illegal migrants spurred by the arab spring demanding that its fellow e.u. countries share the burden of the country's badly hit economies bearing. americans demands police are held to account for their excessive use of force as crowds take to the streets nationwide and projects. need to open maritime route along russia's northern coast gets asian and cargo ships flowing turning the arctic into a commercial hub. this is coming to life from moscow hello and welcome to the program. italy's demanding

the e.u. takes emergency action on the migrant crisis that has paid the country road wants an overhaul of europe's asylum policies as well as for other bloc members to take responsibility and share the refugee burden tens of thousands have fled italy many of fleeing from conflicts and revolutions that have recently shaken the middle east and north africa most people make the perilous journey on dangerously overqualified boats and many never make it the latest disaster more than five hundred people drowning italy's prime minister has warned his european colleagues this tragedy would not be the last of its kind and here's a detailed look at the roots asylum seekers are taking many syrians travel towards greek shores via turkey the majority of north african migrants head to the it turn an island of lampedusa and sicily here and algerian and moroccan nationals

say either to france or to spain france is among the most populous destinations alongside germany and the u.k. but it's a silly and agrees that bear the brunt as according to current laws asylum seekers and train without proper authorization are obliged to remain in the country the first arrived in and here are some numbers for official statistics addressed migrants from outside the e.u. amount to more than twenty eight million and usually every twenty is a registered immigrant while thousands are believed to live there illegally ingres the number is even higher at more than seven percent of the whole population the number of asylum applications in italy has increased by more than a hundred percent compared to last year or she's your priest can offer reports now on those who prefer a live in stateless limbo to the chaos own home. they want to buy food from if your puter saddam than traveled to libya and finally reached sicily after what must

have been the most nerve wrecking ball right off their lives these three women are hiding their faces from the cameras and now they're risking being sent back when we were at sea now the boat with refugees sank into a three hundred people died but we were lucky and in sicily we managed to void good who had just heard it's illegal but we need to go further north there is nothing for us here under e.u. regulation all newcomers must seek asylum in the country where they are right and under italian law anyone of wooden registration is sent home but nowadays more and more newcomers are ready to take their chances don't register to try to go to northern states where there are more opportunities but as you probably when you arrive here they give you the very minimum there is no jobs no school and you sleep in the street for six months italy is one of the worst european states in this regard youth unemployment has exceeded forty percent of the economy is in the worst recession since the second world war international obligations and plain human

principle scandal it only to turn away a refugee since for many is the only chance for survival but the situation has now reached a point when this duty has become too heavy for it to handle on its own the e.u. has pledged italy would receive an additional thirty million euro or just over forty million dollars to deal with the refugee crisis but how will this help to distribute the more evenly throughout the union and integrate them into the economy is not clear they have been so on ideas so. they may be some positive development and i see embodies a lot of. good hope but no concrete ideas and as governments and international organizations brainstorm the solution one thing is certain flow of refugees is only going to continue the work is going on r.t. italy. and talk see philip klein is a member of the european parliament about how the e.u. can address they was singing my god crisis he says while the laws tightened the

e.u. should also how they wage and where the refugees are coming from. i think we have to see to many of these people people that are really a real refugees that they should be held in the region that would be the most ideal situation because it's just not possible for the you to accept all the refugees coming from syria from sudan from all these countries that have serious problems we tend just not have them all coming through the european union what we should do is help these countries hope these regions to to do to accept refugees there to help the refugees there so that they can go back to that country as soon as possible as soon as the problems are being under control meanwhile another migrant community that's already made its way to be you has taken

to the streets to defend its rights to stay. in london's chinatown hundreds have nots to protest against the recent spike in raids by border control officials local businesses lay down their tools and join the riot blowing whistles and waving banners organizers of the walkout say they rave have caused considerable head to that trade and distress among people. nationwide protests against police brutality have been held across the u.s. calling for an end to impunity for officers accused of a base who human rights groups claim are often shielded by the so-called war on terror and the situation reports now from one of the rani. in new york and dozens of other cities across the west a national day of protest to stop police brutality repression and the criminalization of a generation this is a time when i speak eighteenth time these people gather around this simple message

it's not a joke to be how they treat us they shoot us like animals and that's completely unwarranted is literally on warranted when something breaks through like trayvon martin. lee graham or sean bell it gets treated in the media like this is a isolated incident something that rarely happens and then more often it's not reported at all organizers have been documented cases of what they call the stole lives project they say just over the last two decades thousands of killings have taken place by the hand of police officers they say the majority of these cases have been under reported or brushed aside hundreds every year were killed by the police that the majority of them were unarmed and not involved in any criminal activity when they were killed and also the majority of them were young and either black or latino in the mass media is a very good propaganda saw

a lot of people are under the impression that people are being stopped and frisked who are being gunned somehow criminals one of the major concerns for these protesters seems to be the lack of accountability when it comes to gun violence police brutality and even killings that are currently under the hands of law enforcement they see the justice system continues to neglect these cases of violence thus not doing anything to improve the system and bring about real change you have to go through hell and high water just to get a conviction of the officer and what he's convicted for doesn't meet the crime to he's accuse any winds up if not being found guilty even if he's convicted he gets out on good behavior after serving minimal time activists and families of victims called police brutality in the u.s. a pandemic they say considering the unite. states lectures the rest of the world on human rights it's time that it begins to follow its own example by not just words but deeds. archie why you know new york

a. police brutality is this subject of today's breaking this sunday with laughton and you may find some of the following images graphic and has a preview of what's coming up next. according to national prominence just as reference service forty three percent of cops are green always following the rules is not compatible with getting the job done according the bureau of justice statistics between four hundred and five hundred innocent people are murdered by law enforcement officers every year. melting eyes in the arctic may be of huge concern to scientists but it's a huge appeal to commercial shipping they know that sea route running along russia's north cargoes has opened up as global temperatures rise and is like you to

prove quite a drawl to brussels from asia and i spoke. about why it's such a big deal. well there's two main reasons for this the first one is the potential to save billions of dollars in shipping costs because the route is much shorter than say the suez canal so talking less fuel the more business trips that can be made with it secondly it reduces dependency on the suez canal which is always prone to destruction or because of tensions in the middle east as we know and even even pirates and who's going to benefit ok well this is the interesting part because one of the biggest benefit is will be russia and that's because russia has the advantage of where it sits on a map and will be able to see actually the route that it's going to be taking and it will be traveling across all these shipping towns would be over to see a ship bobbing along just there and that will enforce. billions in infrastructure

i'm talking about the multiplier effect as well because money will be brought into these regions and of course benefit also russia has expertise in terms of icebreaking as well which a lot of these countries that do want to get into the region don't have so they can take advantage of all of this means in the long haul competition more commercializing the arctic in the long run it's no wonder that you've got the likes of south korea china india is lee all these countries wanting to get a hand in the piece of the pie because we know this part of the world has a quarter of all the oil and gas reserves as well. the disc of this we're now joined live by the director of external relations of the international trainable shipping simon bennett mr bennett welcome to our tree is great to have you with us this hour so how much is this new northern route a fracture to the swears can now which has been the established word for decades

can we say this is an end over an era. no it is the beginning of potentially a very exciting new era in many ways it's a very exciting development for the shipping industry firstly because of the commercial opportunities and the possibilities of dramatically reducing the transit time the ships trading between europe and asia is also exciting because actually it means that people like yourselves are very interested in the shipping industry normally we are very much out of sight and out of mind yet we carry ninety percent of world trade so for a number of reasons we see this as a very exciting development but it's still very early days i see but is this really just about faster sailing times or more to do with commercializing the arctic ahead

of oil and gas exploration. well i think it's important to stress that the shipping industry believes that it can navigate in arctic waters in a safe and sustainable manner. that's compatible with the special levels of environmental protection that we need and what we recognize is clearly a very sensitive area environmentally and it's important to understand that the shipping industry has a very comprehensive framework for safety and environmental regulations. primarily produced by the united nations international maritime organization which is literally across the river from where i am talking to you at the moment and they have in hand they are developing a new mandatory. for ship operations in arctic waters and that's

expected to be finalized next year and that will be applied worldwide on a man's three basis shortly. all right and actually talking about environment right now reports show the arctic sea melting faster than predicted one this only increase with the traffic and supporting business that emerge as a result. well at the moment the climatology is of course very uncertain but we know from the russian authorities and i was actually in st peters last week talking on this very issue the russian authorities who are responsible for the northern the sea routes they anticipate a an increase in traffic of around about five hundred percent between now and twenty twenty five but i should emphasize it really is a days the very first transit commercial transit using the northern sea routes

didn't take place until two thousand and nine last year i believe there were in the order of just under fifty transits and we've already had a similar number of transits this year but we we do anticipate that the number of transits will increase but they're very carefully supervised by the russian authorities again this is only in the northern someone must summer months when the northern sea beauty is virtually ice free and the ships have to be escorted by the very impressive russian fleets of nuclear icebreakers which ensure a safe and environmentally sustainable passage through the arctic water rights to mr simon bennett live from london mr bennett thank you very much indeed were appreciated and coming out of the raid the day of the tragedy. it was right here at about two pm local time that

just like any other monday here in boulder people woke up with places to go and things to get but heavily using bus stations just like this but for several people needing bus number twenty nine they could never have foreseen how quickly their lives would change when they took that ride. the route ran without incident from morning till afternoon until one person got on board thirty year old why you don't see all of that is when things took a tragic turn and it starts to the very end of the it was on her way home from classes at the university laughing and talking with the other students crucially it was in the middle of the bus which say trade life. when the boss who did everything around me when flying and from that moment i don't remember anything on the recall being thrown onto her window then suddenly finding myself on the street and in a panic i realised something had happened to my hands i was covered in blood. it was right here at about two pm local time got

a blast ripped through boss twenty nine filled with about forty people first responders thought it was perhaps a malfunction of the buses fuel systems but aside from the shop they felt they asked themselves if this was a gas explosion was the fire. in that boat was the same rock or they'd seen that quite evident that in the blast was in their faces and heads asking what happened what happened there was a lot of blood on them and a lot of flesh everywhere i was very afraid i let out of my car and i saw the head lying there i mean my friend took a young boy and his father to the hospital the remnant of an explosive device told the shrapnel t.n.t. and a grenade the accident site became a crime scene while a jihadist from the republic of dagestan became the central focus of the investigation and then the story took another twist the attack wasn't meant for volgograd at all as the all of a had apparently taken

saudi arabia murtha's closest ally in the guard says it no longer wants to be dependent on his big brother because of its foreign policy this new shaved could bring about a variety of problems for washington the worst one being a possible disruption of oil sales he's been a chicken explain angered to the gulf monarchies so much. saudi arabia hates the fact that the us didn't bomb syria saudi arabia did everything possible to make it happen and he didn't saudi arabia hates iran and any mentioning of a possible nuclear deal between the us and iran washington and tehran are far from any deal really but even the talk irritates saudi arabia so saudi arabia decided to

go public with all that irritation the saudi prince bandar bin sultan said there will be quote a major shift away from the us and that it will affect arms purchases and oil sales and most recently citing a protest against the us saudi arabia refused a seat at the un security council so could an ally be turning into a foe i spoke with professor. the u.s. has invested a lot in the relationship with saudi arabia and now saudi review strike me the u.s. marine talking plans and all we're is this alliance going well. by supporting saudi arabia saudi arabia and many of the gulf countries are probably the most undemocratic the most corrupt and maybe a liability and they have contributed to the sense of alienation between the. world so for saudi arabia specially mr bundy to

take this solution is a little astonishing i mean i think i don't think that there will be a total disconnect but if there will be one it will be in the best interest of you on the whole. the u.s. will not be associated with a country that if you generate of terrorism it will not be associated with a leader like this but who is. playing a major role in the bloody war going on in syria and supporting terrorists the u.s. now downplays this shift with saudi arabia possibly thinking that the saudis are not going to go too far that the u.s. has underestimated such dynamic before with saddam hussein he was an ally of one point with a majority in afghanistan and other folks so in this case it all depends on how four saudi arabia is actually willing to go with this number in virginia i'm going
