watching we just don't think that the hundreds of thousands numbers credible we don't have anything to cooperate if this is the u.n. this isn't the russians saying you know not being there is this is an agency thing you guys give millions and millions of dollars to in there now. we don't have anything to back up that number. we're denied to break the full food and even water migrant workers in qatar say their trade once has reached a new lay and the latest episode at a hotel complex construction crews clash with guards on the side these are the red pictures coming out of qatar showing the situation tens of thousands of migrants are working on various free for their news an infrastructure laboring under what are described as a deplorable conditions a german filmmaker who was arrested by qatari point the school exposing the country's poor working conditions believes this case is just a drop in the ocean it was initiated by the workers not being allowed to take

we're back here on r.g.p. national for more news and analysis and dress for restless and term as natives cheap it may be almost but now questions are being asked about how he got the job in the first place freshly in the spotlight we can examine suggest rest mrs abused his powers as prime minister to guarantee him selve his future job specifically denmark reportedly agreed to start legal actions against a kurdish separatist channel that was broadcasting from copenhagen in two thousand and nine in return turkey said it would bag arrest misson as the future nato cheap

so why was turkey warry to about these brawl cost well ankara's along claimed a raja t.v. was amal to pizza for the kurdistan workers party which fights for the rights of kurdish minorities and is considered a terrorist organization in turkey and the west nile the channel started broadcasting in two thousand and four in two thousand and ten it was officially accused in denmark of promoting terrorist activities and this year the channels license was finally revoked we spoke to their lawyer take a listen we have a special it depended committee or service should be dead bark which would issue the certificates to the turks of turkish government at three different occasions complain to this committee each charge they concluded that the coverage was just like the coverage you would fired at the big they just use television stations so we thought that also the courts.

would respect the freedom of expression the freedom of press the freedom of information but it did occur. we asked nato to comment on the leaks about the deal to appoint us misson their press office told us to talk to a danish judicial authority is insisting that the cold where forty independent however journalist and lawyer and former m.p. beyond crist questions that claim there were some conflicts of political character between the bar and turkey argued by the states. because a large very broad stroke they describe it is to become the six attorney general there was a big pressure from us towards the trades authority says to think even creative better how to a diet or how to prove morning that there's

a rush elevation was promoting sarah's bread in. the diet but what there was there within hours after that a dyke with it was announced that there was agreement between the turkish government and the other day two corpses to decide the previous stage probably just as a second surgery kurdish activists dearie tells us that when it comes to turkey minority rights are the least of europe's concerns. i think the kurdish issue isn't one of the most on result issues of the century and the war between the p.k. k. and turkey benefits are both institutions and countries so on one hand while the west close the ice to human rights violations in turkey and actively contributed to these human rights violations by either providing military or intelligence on the other hand the kurds the kurdish asked for and europe was completely criminalized

and we see the similar thing happening with kurds in syria for example even though the people have established. very progressive self governance structures in the north of syria. and i know all of family first of all in britain this week turned into an all out after again the neo nazis attacked particular was stepping one man i was. rooting mob wasn't even made up of christians but rather it was only immigrants which is to say be a silent shot in phantom teens and fortune through bottles at the crowds before police arrived since then there have been nearly dating protest against neo nazi activities for it but today's march. over here just walking out of monks will park at the moment in north london that was where nancy fascist demonstration had taken place i know you've got some of the demonstrators have left

the park and the marching out onto the streets of london peaceful demonstration today. there would be no peace is that the best way to fight new naziism violently while i'm sure. the only way to far north is to fight not to stand there and say we don't like you you know don't like you know we don't like this you know thing that's there's a danger of provoking move. provoking more violence for you to be violent in office about time the discourse interaction with just a reaction to an action will quickly without the police nazis last month were the british nazis. polish north john you're not says we don't if you're not senators and you received no first then just of course because recall how privileges are control you can order for the bullet or destroy and say that's what today's protest is about the last technically allowed to be on the streets here marching like this police say at this point it's actually going to be more hassle. break them up if then surely there have been

a number of arrests that have taken place today already the demonstration itself incredibly well police there is a strong police presence there you can still see the police are monitoring closely what's going on as the greek take to the streets of london. the bankrupt us city of detroit is on the brink of a water crisis of thousands of people they have been left with no supplies at all the authorities say they're only protecting the city's budget from unpaid bills situation for several activist groups to demand the united nations step in and help well you and i expect experts looked into the matter and said the shot of saw a violation of human rights and close inspection reveals it's not just the hard up not paying the bills some corporations are tens of millions of dollars in red as well but there's little pressure being put on them megan lopez has the details. it is one of the most essential elements of life. americans enjoy some of the

cleanest and most abundant water in the world but what happens when the pipes are turned off and the tap runs dry how am i supposed to wash my child heilman i supposed to shower must fill in the largest american city to ever file for bankruptcy residents are falling behind on their water bills now facing five billion dollars in bad debt the water department is taking drastic measures to plug holes and that means cutting water this is one of those houses that has had its water shut off and you can tell that because the detroit water and sewer department went ahead and painted on the porch that water cut slime now they've been doing this more and more frequently to abandoned houses and they are they say going after abandoned houses first in order to kind of avoid it wasting water for houses that people simply don't live in however more often these days the houses facing shut off have residents living inside this is the detroit water brigade headquarters

groups like the way fun in the detroit water brigade are working with residents to get on the water they need in the short term and the funding in the long term to sustain themselves we have donations the water people are saying we also have water filtration devices as well as aqua tablets so that people could you know access to clean drinking water these groups are now calling for help from the federal government and even the united nations to address what they describe as a humanitarian crisis nikita rally is one detroit resident who is afraid of the consequences of missing even a single payment if you tell someone i don't have water in my home that's the first strike you can get your children removed or you go to the war department if they help get my children back they don't care don't just think it's big and she isn't alone no you're shutting out all the water all the most vulnerable. first which now raises a human rights question it raises a moral question what if people do was to water is cut off out of the take their

medicine if you see the shot of they make the formula for the babies however the water department argues we have the the burden of being heavy to be realistic in a lot of folks the activists for example don't have that burden they have what they feel are simple solutions. which really don't really hold water if anybody can come up with a way that we can make the detroit drinking water is good as it is right now for pennies on the dollar was going to listen unfortunately this is not the case leaving some residents salivating for a solution to this water crisis and others just plain thirsty reporting in detroit michigan meghan lopez r.t. and the pint of thousands of detroit residents is also the focus of every month the breaking the fed coming up in around two hours time.

death row inmates in oklahoma are protesting against the use of lethal injections to execute them they say is a keen to experiment ing on humans a law suit filed against the state to follows the bungled execution of oklahoma inmates clayton lockett in april he died of a heart attack forty three minutes after being injected doctors had burst a vein in his body while administering a controversial cocktail of drugs there was a similar incident back in january in ohio when inmate was reportedly in convulsions for about twenty six minutes in both cases concerns were raised that doctors use previously untested drugs now even though the investigation into both cases continues prison authorities are going ahead with the methods three executions have been carried out in june so far the first in april in total three thousand prisoners are weighed the death penalty in u.s.

jails and human rights advocates are concerned that the authorities are i'm willing to take heed of the past failures every time one more state changes a protocol or changes the lethal drug cocktail in a sense we have the potential for human experimentation to be trying something on a human being that's never been tried before and that's being repeated in state after state here in the united states oklahoma has not done another execution yet now we've searched some dates out several months into the future and that's exactly why these inmates of sued what they're basically saying is that we're not ready to do more executions you know that you know the status saying things we will be ready within a couple of months and of course without the four findings there and what went wrong and quite markets are. secu shin i think it's very hard for the states argument to be taken seriously that we're ready to actually start more executions when we don't fully know what happened. coming up next in our international answer

the kinds of reports. some people say freedom isn't free and they're right in fact freedom may only cost the price of a bottle of water or an old t. shirt fans celebrating the recent victory of the l.a. kings noticed that they were not alone what was believed to be a police drone was 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 a communications but any camera or other device been throwing distance of

a brick is at the mercy of us 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 drone would they try to lock up the entire crowd for breaking it no they wouldn't and they couldn't for some reason if one person commits an act of civil disobedience they are in ford but if a crowd does that 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. i. don't think the united states plan for ousting in a college neither did russia i think fine for taking control of our crimea and to get there we have a major crisis on our hands. do you think that is likely to be resolved in some sort of constructive way now because. this is the last change in borders that happens this way that i'm not saying will be forgotten but you know people the

feeling that themselves and the reality is if it turns out though the system first step of this is going to go on indefinitely. and threaten to very existence between the state and we're kind of in a different game. where the kaiser report imax guys are in the words of the great philosopher jones zopyrus .
