mission to teach creationism why you should care about humans and this. is why you should care only. poland's foreign minister is left red faced after he's caught on tape using vulgar language to describe his country's relations with the u.s. . and children forces in eastern ukraine say civilians have been caught and we need army shelling is the agreed cease fire to take hold meanwhile local officials raise the alarm over a severe water shortage. and dozens of women have been illegally sterilized in four prisons in california a new report of the old saying even more cases could have gone unnoticed.

it's good to have a company you're watching r.t. international. poland's foreign minister has been left red faced after elite conversation allegedly heard him use vulgar language to describe his country's relations with the u.s. and it's not the first time leaked tapes of e.u. officials have revealed the dark side of brussels love of washington portnoy has more. anding love affair america and its atlantic partners consistently proclaim their rock solid loyalty and mutual admiration as friends and allies we stand united together. warsaw has reciprocated the affinity always leaving the door open for a u.s. footprint within its borders. very glad to be able to say the american friendship and alliance is a strong behind the camera friendly facade of solidarity western partners are singing a much different tune the same polish officials seen here reportedly calls his

nation's alliance with the u.s. worthless insisting it creates a false sense of security in a secretly recorded conversation up tamed by w magazine foreign minister wratislaw sikorsky is purportedly heard comparing warsaw and washington's relationship to that of someone who's always performing sexual favors and receiving nothing in return preceeding poland's vulgar tone one of america's top diplomats has exhibited her penchant for profanity dropping the f. bomb when referencing european partners so that would be great i think to help glue this thing and have the u.n. help glue it and you know the washington refused to confirm the authenticity of leaked comments instead blasting anonymous leakers for hacking a private conversation that's all part of america's rocky behind the scenes relationship with many of its allies german chancellor angela merkel for example

had stinging words over the u.s. approach to privacy after she was targeted in washington's global surveillance operation this is in the interest of german citizens it is not about me specifically but a volatile citizens we need to trust and this trust needs to do a story and critics say mounting frustration on both sides of the atlantic is making it harder for the western alliance to camouflage a steady erosion. of loyalty and cooperation they don't want to publicly acknowledge that there is a rest but i think that underlying this strong alliance there is a rift every country should automatically be thinking about itself that there is a group between the e.u. and. the united states but this time around is really very serious marina port ny r.t. washington well despite the tough language the polish foreign minister has actually said out loud what many in poland are thinking at least that's according to

political analyst khaled maupin. kind of obscene and somewhat racist words it was articulated what i think a great deal of the polish people probably feel poland supported the united states when during the attack on iraq the george w. bush called the new europe but yet they've gotten nothing out of it the polish people are suffering under extreme measures of austerity and now there are u.s. troops piling in their country using it as a place to threaten russia and i think that this phone call that was leaked kind of revealed revealed that i think that some of the anger was is widespread it's also interesting to point out that you know that in light of this in the recent victoria nuland tapes that in a lot of instances you know the public officials you know while they may speak to the public in very clear and articulate words behind closed doors in their personal interactions they can be quite obscene in and it's a very different personality than what we see as the public still to come this hour

from this is the largest bank faces a multibillion dollar fine for breaching u.s. sanctions the french president slamming the punishment as unfair and disproportionate we look at what could be behind the tough measure. and he government forces in eastern ukraine say a woman has been killed in the shelling of the town of patrol in the defined region both sides agreed to observe a cease fire until friday morning but all recusing each other of breaking it will artie's their own course following the situation in eastern ukraine we can talk to him. it was hoped that this ceasefire would ease tensions but that doesn't seem to be the case as it. not at all the ceasefire is not observed at all and the latest reports say that cell want a woman who was killed and one woman was injured as a result of shelling in near the town all located in north pole

gonski region moreover of a mind was it damaged as well and it is now. and last night's local authorities says yes that's the sound of slowdowns was a shell that once again by the ukrainian national army and at the moment water supply is very limited to none at all there and local authorities here in donetsk away from slowdowns area they are also saying that water supplies here will only last for twelve more days and then there will be no more of drinking water here as well so less than a year from the get the natural duration. shelling has disabled the pumping station two people were killed there others were injured i'm sure you will as workers at the station. with the ukrainian army is deprived

two and a half million being in waters on purposefully in the media want to change the. so the area is obviously heading for a humanitarian catastrophe we've already reported that people in lugansk and the line and out for water like five five kilometer queues are a regular occurrence at the moment and local authorities report that the area is heading for an epidemic and a humanitarian catastrophe i can't thanks for my money even at the man cost half life in eastern ukraine thank you. well the cranes president petro poroshenko earlier said he had a plan b. if his peace initiative doesn't work although some down teasing control of the forces carrying out military operations in the east is international affairs expert alexander mcwhorter told r.t. if we look at it organizations like right sector which are apparently present in the east they're paramilitary organizations they're not under the direct control of

the ukrainian government frankly i doubt that the ukrainian government has much control even over groups like the national guard which are present in force in the ukraine in the eastern ukraine and which of course are recruited specifically from regions which are known to be whole story to the aspirations of the eastern ukrainians so i actually are dealt with the government or mr poroshenko has really much control over them that step on the gas austria is looking for ways to speed up the construction of a pipeline which would deliver russian gas bypassing ukraine moscow and brussels has been at odds over the project which has recently been frozen by the you know we've got more on this story in a couple of minutes. we mouth france's largest bank b.m.p. is close to paying up to nine billion dollars to the u.s. for violating washington sanctions that's more than the bank earned last year in

the fine has been called unfair and disproportionate by the french president artie's peter oliver has got the details. french banking giant. in the u.s. regulators seem to be closing in on the deal which could see france's largest bank having to pay up to nine billion dollars in fines for directly violating u.s. sanctions now this relates back to around thirty billion dollars worth of trades that were done with countries such as iran cuba most of all sit down that all appear on the sanctions list it's being discussed at the highest levels french president francois hollande is warned of the potential fallout for the french and even the wider european economy if this company faces such a stiff fine barbara said well he isn't going to poke his nose into an ongoing investigation by the attorney general so he's not provided going to try and interfere in this case but with the french economy well still very wobbly best

pessimists are suggesting that this type of fine meted out on to france's biggest bank could be potentially catastrophic so we're waiting to see what deal is met between the french bank and the u.s. banking regulators we're expecting that decision at the beginning of july the unprecedented size of the fine has left some wondering why b.n.p. perry barr has to pay so much the biggest such penalty paid by any bank so far was the two billion dollar fine handed out to britain's h.s.b.c. the french bank is now looking at almost five times that amount we asked journalist robert highness' why france is facing such tough measures and he believes washington is punishing paris for its stubbornness over the sale of mr our warships to russia. my only conclusion i have no proof of this but my own conclusion is it's to do with the sale of water to russia is

a sharp rap over the knuckles of the french government for insisting on continuing of the sale of the beast warships to russia. look at the sequence of events might draw their reach. it just goes to show that it's a very expensive defying sound the bank has accepted it because they want to go on doing business in america but i think when people have time to think they're not going to be very impressed by this behavior by the american government which is a sort of blackmail because basically the the system is you say well if you don't plead guilty don't be a trial if you plead guilty you give us a load of money and that seat seems that european politicians are capable of swallowing any humiliation from the americans. spending more to come this hour including wanted dead or alive u.k. intelligence finds it increasingly difficult to pin down and you had it's fighting wars in the middle east on their return we've got the details on this just ahead.

it was a. very hard. to get here. live that that would that make their lives.

welcome back now in order to get home on notice u.k. citizens returning from wars in syria and iraq are using every means possible even faking their own deaths britain reported killed on the battlefield then fell into the hands of the u.k. police fit and well r.t. sara firth has the story reports circulating on social media of the death of a potential british jihad this now he was subsequently arrested trying to reenter the country dave reports and then stood trial now there are concerns that that

social media reports of his death were an attempt to cover his reentry into the u.k. so it's that kind of thing that british security services are going to be looking extremely closely at indeed now a couple of days ago the former m i six chief warns the person security services concert for to track everyone he might be returning to the u.k. after having gone to fight in syria and now potentially iraq of course not everyone who's traveled out to syria has gone to fight alike why it's not everyone who will be returning after having been innocent in syria the tension in iraq will pose the same level of threat but of course what the british government knows what the security services know is that it only takes one and that's what is going to prove the real challenge ensuring that no one slips through the net here so absolutely no doubt about it the scale of the challenge that now faces britain security services

absolutely huge. well more and more britons are turning to radical islam and going to fight in syria and iraq this issue is once again in the spotlight after two u.k. students appeared in a promo video posted online for an hour qaeda offshoot in iraq one islamic human rights activist told us that the british government's inconsistent policies are making matters worse i believe is misguided policies of british government which actually have created this fall. now the british government is trying to blame it on really your city of the muslim community and i think this is the real story the fact. it is the story of british foreign policy in sort of trying to support opposition to us to start with created was a really large number of muslim youths are actually growing older it is

seriously. a us court has released a long list secret memo in which the obama administration lays out its legal reasoning for killing an american citizen without g. process of law the document of course has left questions unanswered abby martin raises them in breaking a sweat. thank you mick remember that back in two thousand and eleven u.s. citizen and we're all lucky the bin laden of the internet was killed by us drone strike in yemen for his association with al qaeda now a lock is just one of four u.s. nationals that have been killed by their own country's predator drones and for nearly three years the a.c.l.u. has demanded to know the justification behind its killing and today the organization got its wish to see a federal court released a two thousand and ten amendment by ben acting assistant attorney general david barrett that outlined the legal case for the strike that killed a lockheed unsurprisingly the obama administration memo relies almost entirely on

the authorization for use of military force a broadly worded law passed in the immediate wake of september eleventh that allows the president to use force against members of al-qaeda but even the memo notes that quote there is no precedent directly addressing the question in circumstances such as those present here but hey laws are meant to be broken even if it means completely dismantling over three hundred years of habeas corpus. most breaking the set a little later on now a damning report has revealed dozens of american women have been illegally sterilized in prisons in the u.s. state of california prison officials claim it helps save the state money while human rights groups say the method is cruel and reminiscent of nazi methods of population control one hundred forty four female prisoners underwent he says you can procedure with former inmates saying they were forced to do so more than a third of them were sterilized unlawfully without their consent and there's many

as twenty seven cases remain undocumented with doctors never signing the necessary papers courtney hope from the justice now campaign discuss the issue with dottie. legislators and prison officials alike that sterilisations were happening and then found out from all receivers intermission that were happening and being offered at two prisons in california a couple of years later so he made it very clear that they were illegal but received claims that people want to wear or that he didn't know that the surgeries were happening across the board there is a sense. that mr brown having your human rights fully respected not being treated like a human feeling bush feeling taken advantage do. a sadness around loss leader to get the child to give to a child in the future that's something that individuals are wanting and also

discussing the after effects of some of these surgeries. well the california prison system has long been the target of criticism thousands of inmates are being caged for decades more u.s. officials prefer to call security housing units they are kept in concrete windowless cramped cells for nearly twenty three hours a day their food is slipped through a door slot one of recreation is often limited to pacing in handcuffs and shackles in another solitary area telephone calls and contact visits and generally prohibited more than three thousand inmates enjoy this sort of treatment according to a report one hundred six have spent fifteen years in cages while twenty three have been locked up for a quarter of a century. you can find more coverage of the humane treatment of u.s. prisons and reports by artie's correspondent reena portnoy on our you tube channel or web site r.t. dot com. also online view the u.k.

austria is pushing to speed up the south stream pipeline project aimed at securing russian gas deliveries to europe bypassing ukraine it was earlier frozen by brussels citing possible violations of the blocks regulations but austria is they're going to make exceptions for gazprom on the contract maybe sealed this week because artie's paul scott reports from vienna. well russia hoping that later on tuesday the agreement can be set in stone the signing of the contract to be overseen by russian president vladimir putin it will mean that the work on the south stream on austrian territory comes again in earnest how the south stream is set to transport gas from russia to europe but bypassing ukraine is seen as a more reliable and stable source on a more stable route with tensions between russia and ukraine continuing to increase austria is keen for the work to be completed despite divisions within the european

union divisions that have led to this is pension of work in vogue area earlier this month people garion prime minister decided to suspend work on the pipeline following a meeting with three u.s. senators including john mckay the official reason being given was the basis bended work to iron out concerns that european union competition laws had been breached however many within russia feel that the decision was politically motivated book areas decision to suspend work has had a knock on effect serbia for example might have to do likewise however they are keen for the work to be completed their president quoted as saying the south stream will guarantee the long term energy security of serbia and create conditions for boosting the domestic economy in italy officials are saying that italy will continue to support the south stream which is among the most strategically important projects on the continent well despite some countries wavering and washington and the e.u. trying to delay construction the signing of the agreement in vienna into the south

stream is one step closer to becoming reality for scots vienna austria. but if the deal is sealed south stream could start operating in two thousand and fifteen and would be able to pump over sixty billion cubic meters of natural gas every year and that should keep a third of europe warm for a year by twenty twenty these appetite for gas is projected to rise is the capacity of size stream it could reach. eighty billion cubic meters and in ten years time i deliveries to russian gas of russian gas to europe could surpass one hundred forty billion cubic meters but austria is deputy prime minister of transport and technology says vienna is very interested in close cooperation with moscow i think. times which are perhaps polluted a little bit difficult it's very important to build bridges and not to ground this or to. always. do they

should. be cultural so. sick of science and technology and also to come on make relations and so on and powerful tools should be. to. try to improve his success stories. some international news in brief now a suicide car bomb has hit a crowded area in the southern suburbs of beirut lebanon wounding at least nineteen people the blast occurred in a mainly shiite muslim district loyal to the militant movement as the group has been fighting alongside president bashar al assad's forces in syria against men receiving muslim rebels last friday another suicide attack in syria and for the left one person dead and almost forty people injured. supporters of a prominent and government cleric have clashed with police in the pakistani city of

before leaving more than forty people injured. arrived in canada where he currently lives to spearhead a peaceful revolution against the country's prime minister lesions take gas to disperse the crowds last week eight of his followers were killed in clashes with authorities. and the landslide sparked by heavy rain has hit the brazilian city of night so many houses have been destroyed one of them completely swallowed by a sinkhole along with several cars flooded area is only four kilometers from the stadium where if they play europe why in the world cup later on tuesday. coming up as promised it's breaking the set with abby martin and she explains how the united states tries to justify its overseas dry times.

some people say freedom isn't free and they're right it's like freedom may only cost the price of a bottle of water or an old t. shirt fan celebrating the recent victor of the l.a. kings noticed that they were not alone what was believed to be policed. just flying over them filming them either out of moral contempt for drones or just for the hell of it the crowd began to throw random objects out until it was brought down i think this event makes two very big points firstly a lot of the surveillance state is not that hard to stop i mean there are satellite photos being taken of us all the time and n.s.a. spying on the communications but any camera or other device than throwing distance of a brick is at the mercy of us the ninety nine percent and secondly generally if a crowd of people does something few ever get punished i mean if this drone was actually a police troll would they try to lock up the entire crowd for breaking it no they

wouldn't and they could and for some reason if one person commits an act of civil disobedience they are in for it but if a crowd does it they generally get away with it so if you're going to defend your right to privacy from drones bring fifty guys with you and everything will work out just fine but that's just my opinion. but i'll talk to my language as well but i will only react to situations i have read the reports for not pushing the know i will leave the state to comment on your matter. to secure yet a car is on the docket no. thank you no more weasel. what you need to direct question the proof for a change when you are you should be ready for a. pretty speech letter and the freedom to.

right such a search string. and i think the church. on the retailers play their. instruments. i. wasn't going ever when i married martin and this is breaking this set so you may

remember that back in two thousand and eleven u.s. citizen and we're all lucky when the bin laden of the internet was killed by us drone strike in yemen for his association with al qaeda now a lock is just one of four u.s. nationals that have been killed by their own country's predator drones and for nearly three years the a.c.l.u. has demanded to know the justification behind his killing and today the organization got its wish to see a federal court released a two thousand and ten memo by then acting assistant attorney general david baron that outlined the legal case for the strike that killed a lockheed on surprisingly the obama administration memo relies almost entirely on the authorization for use of military force a bra be awarded a law passed in the immediate wake of september eleventh that allows the president to use force against members of al-qaeda but even the memo notes that quote there is no precedent directly addressing the question in circumstances such as those present here.
