russian chinese proposal deescalating the north korea for its. international nine am friday morning here in moscow i'm kevin. around the world first focus on what's happening and how violent clashes have erupted in the german city between police and protesters at this friday's g twenty summit security forces used water cannon and pepper spray to disperse demonstrators who threw bottles stones and flares at the offices i. want to quote. thief i.
2:02 am
why. was. activists have been protesting against the two day meeting of world leaders who are expected to discuss challenges like terrorism and climate change next the europe correspondent peter all of it has been following more of what's been happening in our book. tensions have boiled over between demonstrators and the police. we're seeing another line of police now marching doubleton running basically away from where that was taking place as far as i can tell and i'm from that. i've never seen anything like this we've had fights about squatters houses and old. enough never seen anything like that leigh aggression the as far as i can tell purposelessness is that
2:03 am
a bloodless yes it is now it is now. and have my face has made and the thing that is on the. just behind me you can see some smoldering remains then that's from a trash fire that was still says. that is a. sports car i believe that's been torched here now there are. eight seams roaming the moments of small bits of violence and what you saw will also last time is just how quickly it can start and then the police come in to try and put it out but whenever they put it out in one place it seems to pop up elsewhere we understand from the police that they with ordering people to remove their masks they were refusing to do so then water cannon we used pepper spray was used.
2:04 am
well despite there being a whole load of stories about potential violence coming from demonstrators in the build up to this a large gathering well we have been hearing from one member of the local polman here and how much is about the role the police could play in provoking violence yesterday was a pic demonstration twenty to thirty souls and people that was very very peace and i was saying and indeed it was nearly the same spectrum which. come today in the evening i talked to those who. appealed for this demonstration and they say we want a peaceful demonstration but i fear of there will be an escalation because the strategy of the police is slow to deescalate if as it should be and might be those people who want to vent. we'll contradiction as well. can hear the crowd chanting away there and see for she step build a vanity fair chance going on all under the watchful eye if we move the camera over
2:05 am
here over the watchful eye of a lot of police officers i. do you. think that we just to keep a bit vigilant here because we are seeing old what's the us flower being thrown at the police just as you can see there we're actually right between the police and the demonstrators right now so we're going to try and get out of the way just for moment while i'm talking to you not the best place to be if. he has a huge call of police officers that's marching through the city there leading the demonstrators they're only going to be allowed to go in the directions that the police want them to and while the result is what we've seen it's we've seen violent clashes with the police we've seen cars set on fire. while exactly the situation we have at the moment right now they are like. i don't know what. i as the saying goes is near when the blows nobody good and some businesses in
2:06 am
germany saw an ironic opportunity is the mood to anger and protest t. shirts bags stickers with anti capitalism slogans were on sale some have called the move a very pro-capitalist move that even hamburg based soft drinks company fritz cola launched an advertising campaign on the back of the demonstrations to. but he. does need them for. their so. sorry. political analyst consultant raina ross first he says the protests reveal social instability in germany and i did the why there e.u. this is a clear sign of disintegration of european societies if you see such a form of taking the rights of democracy as the protesters claim to the
2:07 am
streets it really gives you the impression that the society is heavily under tension the appearance of the police alone in black here or the riot police already shows to the demonstrators there there is a potential for a clash i think that the really full bronze credit she they should follow the non-finite principle a rather accommodating and rather defenses attitude on behalf of the police would be a possibility also to take away some of the pressure inside these demonstration groups. at the g twenty summit itself for the most highly anticipated meetings coming up is that of u.s. president. putin it's going to be their first face to face next to his from participants at the event about what to expect. just look at some of the pictures
2:08 am
around you for instance the papers that you can find t.v. live to the shins like this one. the most important things that you will be looking for at the summit of the most important. they want to change from me and that's one of the to me things of the entire time and it'll be the first place. to hear everyone else you will see there will be you know it's like a wage because we like. to. negotiate both of them have a very strong leadership of our infantry the kind of like wildfire and i think it's based on the confidence in a lot of kind of that once he. gets a little did they get the part especially on controversy when he rushes potential involvement in the like since i don't believe it really.
2:09 am
would be. and don't take my word for this event turned into but say thirty or even the fifty for everyone in this media center the number one pick number two pick perhaps for the top story would still be the handshake and the talks between. trump well it's supposed to be one of the most challenging to his key issues that divide a lot of world leaders. and some of the contradictions. the motto of the g twenty goes shaping the interconnected world but the countries that make up the world's greatest economic powers are an awkward fit to say the least it's true that some have been getting along swimmingly take german chancellor merkel and her chinese counterparts panda diplomacy.
2:10 am
lovers toward linking up if you try to add in mr trump things fall apart for one terms bromance was she is definitely over courtesy of north korea tensions and trump and merkel don't click either the chancellor doesn't even refer to the u.s. as a friend anymore of course they didn't get along from the very start really the german people are going to end up overthrowing this woman i don't know what the hell she's thinking it takes wits to convince people with facts instead of using thinks she was person of the year i was supposed to be person of the year and time magazine isn't the only mismatch for merkel her relationship with everyone turkey's president has been going downhill as of late i had of the summit he was told not to bring his troublemaking bodyguards and was reportedly denied venue's to make a public address and that wasn't much of a surprise really after erda want to use berlin of nazi practices current or
2:11 am
potential for conflict with a turkey is so high that we want to avoid additional reasons for conflict now if we try to add putin to the mix he fits great with china but not so much with merkel sanctions over the crisis in ukraine are in their way and the same issues keep russia and the e.u. as a whole from connecting the e.u. and its turn is that odds with italy as its promises to help deal with the refugee influx have yet to come to fruition meaning yet another disconnect that we had left in the old czech republic has taken twelve po'd into the groove taken exactly not good enough you know now the king of saudi arabia decided to simply flip the table and skip the summit altogether as for the remaining g twenty members there. just as mismatched so the idea of a completed jigsaw puzzle with the g twenty members shaping an interconnected world things almost impossible it's much more likely individual elements will find each other never coming together with everyone to make the full picture jack and r.t. washington d.c. . other stories this morning after months of reporting on alleged russian meddling
2:12 am
using unnamed sources c.n.n. seems to be changing its attitude towards anonymity these days one of the channel's own political analysts now says people do not have the right to stay anonymous it was in response to the backlash the networks faced for threatening to reveal the man behind the little viral president wrestling with c.n.n. logo reports c.n.n. now thinks that we the people do not have the right to be anonymous this is how kirsten powers their political analyst explained it in a tweet. people do not have a right to stay anonymous so they can spew their racist massage honest homophobic garbage now that's an interesting argument coming from a network that's been running stories about trump based on unnamed sources for months based on anonymous sources according to this source who spoke on the condition of anonymity anonymous sources are the basis of most truthful reporting
2:13 am
oftentimes you do have to gather information using anonymous sources say can i use your name and they say no can i use you as an anonymous source a source familiar with the matter they say yes and then we report the information on the air we heard c.n.n. use this phrase so much it's actually spawned a number of online memes sure c.n.n. protects their online sources but the way they see it if you post something online that they consider to be offensive they have the right to reveal your personal information to the public something that could actually put a person in harms way oh and they get to decide what's considered to be offensive as well apologized for some of those other houses that were racist anti-semitic and that is not publishing to users name because of his apology think bribery in reverse they get said to me say listen if you are if you ever attract that reddit thing there's a couple of bucks for you that would be bribery kind of sort of but if i were is if you listen if you don't retract that right at the i'm going to expose you i'm going
2:14 am
to dox you i mean let everybody know where you live now to let people know where you live what you've said things you've said perhaps that might be politically correct things that might cause you problems with your job it's almost a blackmail coercion but it's unprecedented c.n.n. may be a powerful news agency but just to proclaim to them the policeman of what's considered to be offensive in the end u.s. law has the final say caleb mopp and artsy new york. american arts and crafts retail chains. accused of acquiring ancient artifacts which have been smuggled from iraq the items include tablets containing writing in an ancient script known as cuniform that was used thousands of years ago in mesopotamia which is now part of modern iraq also among the artifacts a clay object used as a seal known as a bull a prosecutor say hobby lobby agreed to by thousands of artifacts in twenty ten for one point six million dollars well the u.s.
2:15 am
justice department says the company was even warned by an expert that the acquisition of such cultural property from iraq carries a risk of the objects could have been looted for its part hobby lobby's agreed now to pay a three million dollars fine and will have to give back the items is firm statement on the controversy in a bit more detail the company was new to the world of acquiring these items and did not fully appreciate the complex cities of the acquisitions process this resulted in some regrettable mistakes illegal sale of the ancient treasures is also lucrative for you still too which makes many millions from selling some of them although the terror group's mourner torricelli known of course for destroying priceless pieces from history. warhol are unheard. of.
2:16 am
well let's talk about this a bit more detail i've been warned that it was going to happen and it seems to be broadened out from this particular. this particular retailer though get reaction from iraqi journalist and commentator and this warning thanks for your time today thanks to live with this have been several occasions in recent years where looted middle east artifacts turned up on the market what is the scale of the problem for iraq. yes in fact hundred of thousands of iraqi artefacts had been looted since two thousand and three about two hundred thousand. wark. and artefacts has been had been looted from iraqi national museum after the american invaded iraq two thousand and three and addition to that there is it about twelve thousand to twenty thousand and he she had to
2:17 am
places without protections because of lack of security is a situation in iraq there is no guards no protection for these sites so it's become very easy for the smugglers the locals. to make our own dumb looting for the valuable work of art from iraq and also the archaeologist believes that the local the smugglers have ties with the international dealers to take this important and valuable. pieces of iraq outof iraq is through neighboring countries like syria and jordan. are s'posed if the region hadn't been destabilized by the foreign invasion so much for security crisis the problem would be nowhere near as big right. believe i can see you but you can't hear me that's
2:18 am
a pity iraqi jenison continent is abraham that we're trying to get but it's a bit late to maybe recorded the scenes of the gremlins i'm playing out it's twenty two minutes past nine in the morning a lot more to come you know it's international with me cavanagh and we are unified solution be found to the north korea crisis is fun if it's any closer after the short break. manufactured. public will. when the ruling classes protect themselves. in the final. we can all middle of the room see.
2:19 am
income inequality wage stagnation gerrymandering of political districts polarization you know the lack of effectiveness in congress there are these are well documented trends going back decades and now they're really acute unmanifest to the point where people describe the system is being seized with a kind of paralysis. without internationals go straight back to baghdad because the connection. is abraham high and there's so we lost the line then i see again what we said we were talking about the. i'm always assuming the problems are got a lot worse as
2:20 am
a direct correlation the supposed between all the destabilization after the foreign invasions there are if that had not happened you would have such a big problem with these lovely artifacts being looted and taken away there's a clear correlation yes yes yes in fact iraqi archaeologists believe that the local the smugglers had ties with international leaders to take this important art piece out of the country today you would have options and the americans through the night many counties like turkey and jordan and united arab emirates. i won the least you could say they're going to a safe place rather than being smashed up by isis for instance when no one's saying that's a good faith being looted taken out maybe there are at least going to some place of safety with collectors but the cost problem is that you may never see them again publicly that's the issue isn't it.
2:21 am
as it was to have a bit of a problem with the law and their owners were more thing in these looted antiquities why are they so attractive to foreign investors. we've lost a lot of baghdad again and you can hear we wish you can have a good day and maybe as they will try and recall about the on the seems a bit later when things are a bit smoother. rejected a joint russian chinese proposal into deescalating the situation on the korean peninsula the plan called for north korea to hold its missile testing and for the u.s. and south korea to stop its military drills in the region during those exercises wednesday american and south korean forces fired missiles into the sea of japan believed to be a warning shot towards pyongyang however the u.s. state department said the drills were not related to north korea's development of weapons of outside pressure would not change washington starts. these kinds of
2:22 am
exercises and have relationships like this all over the world if china and russia decide to come out against that that is not going to change our position. this all follows north korea's big latest missile launch on wednesday the united nations security council held that emergency meeting on the issue where the u.s. threaten force against pyongyang. north korea's destabilizing escalation is a threat to all nations in the region and beyond their actions are quickly closing off the possibility of a diplomatic solution the united states is prepared to use the full range of our capabilities to defend ourselves and our allies one of our capabilities lies with our considerable military forces we will use them if we must but we prefer not to have to go in that direction the u.s. is sending the same message that they have been sending for seventy years and that is to threaten again and again and again the people of the democratic people's
2:23 am
republic of korea and the reality of us endless endless threats on the people of korea has ratcheted up now the sanctions a new round of sanctions a new round of threatening other countries that have any trade or economic relations with the d.p. r. k. at every step it is to make a provocation. to go home full of stories twenty four seven talking to which looks like italy's been left alone to sort out the worst and refugee influx problem at its ports after e.u. ministers of failed to find a way forward to share the burden instead members want to target and geo rescue boats were found for good which they suspect of being exploited by people traffickers in just a matter of days up to twelve thousand people have landed in italy the problem of going away while more than eighty five thousand of arrived since the start of this year italy's top anti mafia prosecutor believes the crisis is threatening your

security threat. those who arrive on the day then undergo a process of radicalization that may lead to the realization of terror attacks meantime the head of europe's law enforcement agency says the terror threat on the continent more widely is a twenty year high several of the terrorists who carried out recent atrocities in europe had come through the mediterranean route from africa over to italy and on but worth bearing in mind despite italy accepting the biggest number of migrants it has the us at least it has crossed been spared mass terror attacks we discussed why that might be with the taliban police officer and union leader gerry tonelli. said the easiest prey for islamic radicals are desperate men those who are criminals or are in prison a muslim who came to italy is integrated and has a job is not easily influenced by islamic radicalism the desperate man is willing
2:25 am
to do all he can to redeem himself. for these men to be sacrificed in the holy war means social redemption and being respected we try to control what goes on in prisons but it's not easy as many of these muslims are in prison for minor crimes for this reason they are not isolated and are in contact with other prisoners so it is easy for them to come into contact with the extremist element. that was just. the beginning of the my current crisis in europe i explained that there was no security field. terrorist could come in height here easily i mean the problem of information exchange is not being adequately addressed by european intelligence services we are all very busy with our own problems and there is no common spirits the interests of some countries prevail over others. thanks but
