thank you. that's why. we. want. minority government safety nets signing up with. ministers. in parliament. to lead this or. aiding terrorists to be syrian troops for the second time in. the. us we hear from a us democratic congresswoman who is pushing to stop washington arming militants in syria. each time we have.

russian investigators say the perpetrators of. the encrypted messaging service telegram to. the. school to the world international my names you know. your company we begin with breaking news from london british prime minister trees a maze conservative party has reached a deal with northern ireland a democratic unionist party to support her minority government. today we have reached an agreement with the conservative party on support for government and parliament this agreement will operate to deliver a stable government in the united kingdom's national interest at this vital time ok

well we have a reaction to that a little bit later in the program what it means not for the u.k. but more headline news. the conflict in syria has taken a dangerous new turn with the israeli military bombing syrian government troops for the second time in as many days or mideast correspondent paula slee reports now from tel aviv. israelis claim that the strikes are in retaliation for cross border shelling from the syrian military earlier this morning monday there were again reports that idea of tanks had fired across the border after another round of mortar fire from syria landed in the israeli side of the golan heights but the israeli army has since said that these reports of foles however regarding the earlier two incidents of syrian shells landing in israel there's been no proof that in fact it was the syrian military that fired those shells damascus has said that its forces are currently battling terrorists in the area so there's no way to

pinpoint exactly who fired the shells damascus has now accused israel of effectively providing cover for the terrorists by bombing the syrian military is one of course has been illegally according to the international community occupying the golan heights since one thousand nine hundred sixty seven israel's bombing of the syrian government forces comes just a week after the u.s. u.s. led coalition shot down as syrian military jet and manned drone u.s. officials often say that they like to lead by example and in this case it seems to apply to what israel is not doing when the united states and its allies target the syrian military with impunity and that of course stands a signal to other countries that they might be able to get away with the same kind of thing and as i mentioned the syrian government is fighting about on the street terrorist near the border because well well this might just be another example noting because russia has recently accused the u.s. of failing to target this very same terrorist group. we're still seeing

a case of double standards from what we've seen in the fight against terrorism in syria were under the impression that these so-called. you know whatever it's called now is being speared on every occasion by the u.s. led coalition and its allies now russia hold its military cooperation in syria with a u.s. led coalition after the downing of that syrian fighter jet last week a. and this latest escalation from israel's bombing of the syrian military is a slippery slope for this truly international conflict which is being fought on so in soil. ok just returning to our top story this hour the tory government the u.k. conservative party in power of course a deal with the northern irish d u p party to have a minority government in place to abolish just been announced less than an hour ago or so i believe well honestly churkin is standing by to give us the details on not so here yet we've got

a deal in place it's signed it's sealed but will it deliver what do we know about the pact. well the union indeed we have to keep in mind that it's been over two weeks now since the crash and burn election that theresa may have called which unexpectedly left the country with a hung parliament so now over two weeks of negotiations and in fact the tories have struck a deal with the democratic unionist party of northern ireland and now we have to of course understand that this was an agreement that theresa may needed to essentially simply be able to pass legislation through parliament because she was several seats short from a majority and now with the ten m.p.'s from the d p it looks like they're going to be able to have a functioning parliament now in terms of agreements that have been mean we are expecting the details of what has been specifically negotiated to be released within the next hours or so but what we can tell you for now is we know that the

tory government theresa may has agreed to extra financial support for northern ireland we're talking here about a sum of over one point five billion dollars pounds in the next two years and of course the issue of bracks is something that people here in the u.k. have been watching very closely because as we know that he was against a hard bracks it's something that theresa may was seemed to have been quite interested in and so far we have only heard from the leader of the following these agreements reached who has said that the exit from the e.u. will be something that benefits all parts of the u.k. so it seems that they have agreed on some kind of steps specifically that they intend to take forward together but again with a final this final deal to be released into the spotlight shortly we will have more details now we have to understand also that this is not a formal coalition such as was the case back in two thousand and ten when the tories had to form a coalition with the liberal democrats in

a similar situation but this particular specific arrangement is something that is called a confidence and supply agreement. which is slightly different and here analysts have been noting that it's been quite symbolic that the two leaders to recent man the leader of the day you did not come out with a joint press conference quite yet we did see one separate statement and we are expecting to receive me to address the public shortly so we'll certainly bring you those details as they come out it's all coming out in dribs and drabs isn't it but the full details published later on the situation from london thank you. moving on now the u.s. government's agenda in syria is coming under increasing scrutiny on capitol hill democratic lawmaker is pushing a controversial bill through congress that would pressure washington to stop arming syrian rebels also visited syria on a fact finding mission earlier this year however so far her draft has only attracted the support of fourteen other u.s. lawmakers we must stop this madness we must stop arming terrorists i'm introducing

the stop arming terrorist act today to prohibit taxpayer dollars from being used to support terrorists or to the u.s. congresswoman a question on how she views the situation not an anti terror conference in new york . i and many others are working hard to continue to build support for this legislation with the goal of getting it passed and ending this policy i think that there has been a concerted effort to both on the part of some in the media as well as many in politics and many in our foreign policy establishment who have been advocating for a continuance of these regime change wars really ignoring the fact of what has been the consequence of these wars in countries like iraq and libya and syria where each time we have these wars it has resulted in the strengthening of terrorist groups

like al qaeda or the creation of isis and it has resulted in a tremendous amount of suffering and death from the people of these countries. six police officers have been injured in london after a protest against police brutality turned violent four people were arrested. the details for still. recently. that. i. know that. it will stall said last night but it carried on into the early hours of the morning and protests today when throwing great but they said they would be able to as well and they were

trying to act the building the reason they were so angry was they would demonstrate saying over the debt that all of a twenty five year old local black man his name was fed every hole stay late he was known as ed said he was a comic cannick he was pulled a the by. police when he was in his car earlier this month and campaigners say he was brutally beaten and some reports even that he may have died as a result of his neck being broken and he died in hospital six days off of that initial incident with the police so the protest says that we had last night that was saying that all they want to know is how mr de call stud died to take a listen. we just want. to give you all says. their family members. more will cry you. remember even if you do good to be ready to do you do what are you trying to. do to return to try to get where you are the

metropolitan police have said in a statement that as he was being detained mr de colston became well they've also confirmed that no police offices have been suspended and every result of this incident with mr de costa the police sportstalk here in the u.k. is investigating what led to his death it's the independent police complaints commission and they've already said that in the initial postmortem carried out on mr de costa hasn't indicated that he died from spinal injuries encrypted messaging. over their use by terrorists those investigators make a key find in the same petersburg metro bombing probe that's among the stories still ahead on r.t. .

lead. our. lives. the feeling of freedom. every the world should experience. and you'll get the old world. the old according to

a just. world come along for the ride. thirty minutes into the program welcome back italy's center right parties have delivered a blow to the country's ruling center left party winning more than half of the my world lections in twenty five provincial capitals let's go live now to our to charlotte dubin ski to get more reaction to this high charlotte yeah it was one of the last real vocal tests wasn't it before next year's general election which is due to happen before may at some stage what might be results signify do you think. well it's really interesting when you look at the results because as you say this looks like a resoundingly victory for center right parties and a big blow to the ruling democratic party which is the center left coalition now

what we've seen in this is that many of the winners who were from center right parties were actually backed by a former prime minister silvio berlusconi very famous a man who was ousted from parliament back in two thousand and thirteen over a tax fraud conviction now what people are suggesting is that these results could see an overwhelming call for the center right parties to really unite into one party to be a force at that general election which as you say must take place before may of twenty eighteen and some people are speculating it could be even sooner with that in some people suggesting it could be as soon as the autumn now silvio berlusconi is trying to overturn a ban on being able to run for public office and if he's able to overturn that ban then perhaps he could be the person to unite and to stop those divisions between the center right parties which would make them a force to be reckoned with in that general election now that comes after many

voters say that they are disaffected and unhappy with the current government which is led by the democratic party that sent. left party and that's because of three main issues one of them is the migration of. thousands of migrants coming into its shores mainly on areas like the island of lampedusa with people arriving from north africa and the fleas struggling to deal with that it's also been struggling to deal with a timid economy for many years it has a high rate of unemployment currently at around eleven or twelve percent and more than that its banking sector has been in dire straits for many years bad debts in the banking center account for around a third of the total debt in the eurozone that's three hundred and fifty billion euros and just on sunday two further banks have to be yet again to the tune of more billions of euros and many people are unhappy about that so the suggestion is if somebody like silvio berlusconi can overturn his ban be able to run again for

public office can reunite sort of the center right parties then we could see a dramatic shift in politics before the next year is over explaining the main issues surrounding those election results are two charlotte didn't get thank you. while staying in the plea italian police fired tear gas dozens of refugees who were trying to cross the border to get into fronts the clashes erupted near the city of dent amelio on sunday night after the confrontation some migrants took to a river in attempt to bypass a police barricade the refugee crisis is among the issues which former european commission president jose manuel barroso has been discussing with sophie shevardnadze the full interview here later today. seems like there is a wedge between the west and east because of the migrant quota situation to us it also seems like work said in large part happened because of the migrant situation

jane not feel like the migrant situation no. real problem. first of all for the migrants and for the refugees that's a real tragedy. i mean let's put things in context when some of my colleagues in europe say that we have a good big problem i say look our problem is nothing called bear we do problem of those people that are suffering and they are dying into the disease so we have to help these people so let's be straight as a problem for a year of sheedy's it is an issue that we have to settle but by the way it's no better than two years ago. it's another headline stories this hour investigators looking into this and petersburg metro bombing in april say the attacker and his accomplices used a controversial encrypted messaging service to plan and carry out the atrocity kevin own more details earlier from correspondent. the telegram messaging app is

famous for its outstanding levels of privacy with all the encryption but the secret chats just to remind you almost three months ago a suicide bomber killed fifteen people in the st petersburg metro and the investigation into that got to the point when the russian federal security service are saying that at all stages of the preparation both the attacker and whoever assisted him in a broad war using telegram another thing that they're saying is that telegram with all its encryption features has become the most widely used app by terrorist organizations in russia when it comes to messaging now just a little earlier russia's communications regulator zor said that it could be days away from blocking telegram russian authorities have demanded that the telegram team provide access to the chats and their crypto keys when and

if needed to which the founder of said no and he also added that the privacy and the people's right to it is more important than the fear of terrorism the course is not just telegram there are others as well that a guest could conceivably be used by terrorists as well there's the general public that's got nothing to do with terrorism and genuinely they really praised all the new features that these take this thing out so now like telegram are offering with the new levels of privacy but the authorities are on high alert and they're absolutely not happy with these loopholes and perhaps that is justified because to research organizations have published at least one hundred reports of the hottest organizations using telegram in the past you were saying that there are other apps that are grading their encryption facilities like watson app developers of that got

on. under fire in the u.k. after the terrorist attacks in britain and that was criticism on a very high profile level we want companies to develop tools to identify and remove harmful materials automatically i want to see them report this file contents to the all storage is and block the uses to spread it there should be no place for terrorists to hide we need to make sure that organizations like whatsapp and there are plenty of others like that don't provide a secret place for terrorists to communicate with each other we need to make sure that our intelligence services have the ability to get into situations like encrypted whatsapp kevan but the great threat is still out there and since the number of terrorist attacks in europe has only been increasing i guess it is fair to say that the authorities failed to contain it and now they are saying that the only way for them to do it is get access to the chats and crypto keys so in the near future we are bound to hear more debate on that the usual thing security versus progress. heading stateside now since his twenty sixteen presidential

campaign donald trump has been promising to bring the nation together i say it is time for us to come together as one united people we may have our differences we are strongest when we are unified. over those differences to the visions appear to have deepened since last year's election pitting not only political opponents but even us states against each other with more here's killer. liberal california is unhappy with some of its conservative sister states its ban state sponsored travel to texas alabama south dakota and kentucky with north carolina mississippi kansas and tennessee already on the list these sanctions of sorts are bringing up some interesting historical memory. california says that it's taking this action in response to what it says is

discrimination against lesbian gay bisexual and transgender people each of those states in the recent weeks have been acted legislation that may deprive some of the individuals of those states and individuals who visit those states of their constitutional rights there are consequences to discrimination restricting state sponsored travel is a consequence i think they're just trying to cause infighting in the u.s. i think be all to make goal of liberals in some kind of civil war and that's where that's their goal at least for the lone star state is fighting back taxes along with twelve other states is threatening to sue california for its climate change initiative which discloses companies investments in fossil fuels now the governor of california has announced that he's ready to fight against the republicans in d.c. . and other states and other provinces throughout the world will step up there's already been talk of a calyx or this liberal state behemoth breaking away from the rest of the country

seem to be escalating right now in a war of words between the conservative forces in california california is more to the left of the trowbridge and. so right now california is one of the more progressive states in this country and not to be outdone a few texans are now raising the idea of secession and raising the lone star flag once again we are advocating for texas leaving the union we've been doing this now for well over a day and we've you know in this last legislative session we came closer and we. before there are going to be states that are going to be leaving the union and it's going to happen sooner rather than later if you pay attention to american politics it's pretty clear that folks don't see eye to eye but are we really getting back to civil war levels where we all can't be one country some folks certainly think so and the gap between the liberal and conservative states is only getting bigger and . new york. meanwhile america's top diplomat stays

qatar will find it difficult to meet this sweeping thirteen point ultimatum issued by a saudi group of foreign nations breaking ties with a rum and closing the al-jazeera news channels are among the demands in order to lift a punitive blockade but u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson say's qatar is currently reviewing the un considering their requests they are abstain also once qatar to close a military base operated by turkey which infuriated the country's leader president to one ses the ultimatum goes quote against international law here sir middle east correspondent paula sleeper with more. well turkey's president at the one has slammed a list of demands that was made by saudi arabia and three other countries on qatar to end its sudden isolation and those demands must be met if qatar wants to find itself back on good terms one of the measures on the list directly concerns to as

qatar has been told to end and has military presence in the country now president has called this decision an attack against a sovereign states rights take a listen. we see the attitude regarding the thirteen articles in contradiction with international law because that cannot be such an attack on the rights of a certain state over its agreements with other states in fact here we see an attack against the state's sovereign rights despite the fact there is no feedback demanding that turkey withdraws its soldiers is unfortunately also disrespectful towards turkey so we're supposed to seek commission when we make different school operation agreements with any country sorry turkey can be pushed around for an asher demanding that turkey draws its soldiers from there is disrespectful towards turkey now other demands include the severing of all diplomatic ties with un compensation payments for deaths and other losses caused by qatari policies and also putting the plug on the al jazeera news network international reaction to

these demands has been mixed particularly from washington here you have president trump indorsing the decision to ostracize qatar saying that the state must stop funding terrorism the time it come to car. or get to our to end its funding. they have to end their own. and its extremist. ideology in terms of fund and yet the state department's questioned the motives as to whether it's to help tackle tara or settled long term grievances now that it's been more than two weeks since the embargo started we are mystified that the gulf states have not released to the public nor to the qataris the details about the claims that they are making toward qatar the more the time goes by the more doubt is raised about the actions taken by saudi arabia and the u.a.e. at this point we are left with one simple question were the actions really about

their concerns regarding cutter's alleged support for terrorism or were they about the long simmering grievances between and among the g.c.c. countries qatar has not been given long to think about its response a seven day deadline to carry out the demands has been set paul asli reporting while a former turkish ambassador to the u.s. to list the moms are on reasonable and that the qatar crisis could take a turn for the worse and look at a big big list of demands. i would rather refer to it as an alternate on. a touch to to it. with total states. the amount should be reasonable and actionable not mud the reasonable not archibold so we are looking at the situation across the even

worse. well we continue without because the ramifications all valid guitar prices are in focus in crosstalk coming up in a few moments. when i almost show seemed wrong why don't we all just don't call. me old but yet to shape out these days comes to educate and it gains from it equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. and the capacity to integrate. the refugees at the same time we

cannot accept everybody that comes to all come from countries all countries have the control of their borders books all come through so beautiful so as the rights to control its borders. those issues. post this is a drop in. the law i sit back home. in a loop oh so close is it just. a matter. of julie. really. good barbecue what about the drug. dealers i don't know that might go for yourself or what they say oh fuck.
