1:18 pm
welcome back now with just two days to go before the g. twenty summit begins in hamburg it seems world leaders i'm going to get the warmest of welcomes the host cities being and gulf to end protests. police dispersing the crowd were fully paid down in riot gear pepper spray and more secant and were also used against the anti capitalist activists offices have
1:19 pm
cleared a camp which protesters set up in one of the city's parks several everest's one made peace all of a has been closely following the story. police everybody has been prepared for a large scale demonstrations and almost certainly violence over the coming days as protesters are right for the g. twenty but this one really caught a lot of people by surprise and it seems to have come about through the sheer number of people that have turned up to protest against this g. twenty they were camping in every book park in hamburg police's decided that there was no way that was going to happen this tent city that was being set up there was dispersed by the police with some of the demonstrators arrested they fought back pepper spray was used police in full riot gear. from the pictures we've seen going in there as well and some quite ugly scenes very early on we've been told to expect serious demonstrations out these g. twenty this g. twenty summits we've seen fly is all around the capital here in berlin also around
1:20 pm
other cities and other e.u. nations i've seen saying come to humbug on these dates be part of these demonstrations the. result. of. the. fact there's been also a lot of criticism over the decision to actually place this g twenty in how the police operation though is what's being called the biggest in recent german history they have had some successes if you will call them that going into this but it also gives us a key is just how prepared and interesting look into just how prepared the demonstrators are police have been showing off a haul of weapons that they've confiscated in the city of rostock that was supposed
1:21 pm
to be part of a cache that was going to be taken to hamburg they believe and used in the potential riots there it includes things like throwing knives baseball bats brass knuckles telescopic batons as well as precision catapults now those are weapons that police have said could cause well really catastrophic injuries there very serious weapons in the right hands we're going to be following all the way through here to try and see what happens i say we are expecting violence we weren't expecting it so soon it does seem though that the protests against this g twenty four eclipse the political and diplomatic decisions that may be made during the summit. let's now discuss this that. with peace activists down head of no to nato rein approval and mr braun thank you for joining us on r.t. international maybe you would be the best person to town is why are people so angry about the g. twenty meeting. you know the g twenty is an
1:22 pm
illegitimate organisation which one to the side about the future of the world it's in their liberalistic decision about bed arms trade destroying the agriculture militarism and war and destroying the environment you know they're already part of the sieve you know due to the area. of the world out attending these meeting then a lot of big crowd over here which is for democracy and for free speech high joining these are made to protest against it and that is the reason so many people are coming here i am sure you can see around the big crowd which is tightening the judges on that maybe there will be much more of the big demonstration that sort of . security has been stepped up in light of past of god we've got riot police the water cannons and tear gas do you really think protesters will actually succeed in
1:23 pm
disrupting the g twenty summit. you know the protests death to do continue and more and more people are joining our protest even many people in the city which were not very much in favor of the protests in the beginning got totally unhappy with the undemocratic behavior of the politician and the government of hamburg ridges and in none except a violent kind of odd organizing actions against the protesters so we will be more in the next days we'll be protesting day to day evening and evening and we will finalize the protests with the huge money for station on time of day it's a question if we can keep them on. to see in our country if we get a fight for the right of protest against the violence of the government the behavior of the police and the government including the national government and
1:24 pm
america is totally unacceptable it is a gauge german constitution b.j. loud to protest everywhere which is which has its own paragraph or the right of demonstrations not happened here is against our constitution. what about the g twenty summit itself what do you think it will actually achieve this time around. you know what can you achieve when you are sitting together with trump an adult you can achieve nothing positive for the people people need fair trade but the relation to the u.s. and the european union makes trade only for profit for themselves people the better agricultural systems but we are doing the land grabbing people need fear cannot make relations between the country but we are export against giving resources from other countries so that we can't expect anything will be something and when you look into climate what you want to expect when trump is
1:25 pm
a round the table he was he tried to destroy the climate agreement from paris he's leaving disagreement so what we need is a way back to the united nations the only the national organization which heads legit to meet legitimation for international agreements mr raynor prone peace activist had no tonight sorry thank you for your time sir. well the g twenty summit is making headlines for another reason to the highly anticipated first me saying between donald trump and flatmate putin it comes with speculation still rife ledge links between team trump and the kremlin less across life to auntie's just in visit to find out more about they struck link it to see. now what should we expect from this much anticipated meeting. well something very interesting to note is friday's meeting which of course has been receiving a lot of attention and hype in the media will actually be the first official
1:26 pm
bilateral meeting between a u.s. and russian president in nearly two years of course the first six months of terms presidency have seen prevailing anti russian sentiment in the u.s. limiting the two world leaders interactions to a few phone calls and while no specific agenda has been announced for friday's meeting it is expected that they will discuss important issues such as syria ukraine the fight against terrorism but the mainstream media on the other hand has been full of speculation as to whether or not allegations of russian meddling and the u.s. presidential election will be brought up by trump or if he'll touch on the never ending accusations of collusion between team trump and moscow they may however be disappointed on that front but there is no doubt that every aspect down to body language excuse me will be analyzed as many are saying it will be an indicator of the future of u.s. russia relations so there is no doubt that the two presidents have much to discuss the only question that remains is how much they will be able to accomplish under
1:27 pm
