a human rights console tinti was arrested in turkey along with the director of amnesty international turkey. and for others they have been accused of aiding and being part of helping a armed terrorist organization that hasn't been named as it stands at the moment now that prompted this statement from sigma gabriele to the german people warning them of potential risks of travel to turkey suggesting that they could be potential targets while they're there he's also made some recommendations towards businesses advising against investing in turkey he said that there was no legal certainty in the country at the moment and that x. appropriations had already taken place and he couldn't warn against them taking place again in the future or the german chancellor angela merkel spokes person has described the whole predicament we're in at the moment is serious and sound that

this is the latest in deepening crisis between in and just recently and it's still ongoing at the moment there is the crisis over the incirlik air base the german lawmakers from the bundestag wanted to go and visit that air base they were told repeatedly that they couldn't and that prompted the german defense ministry to move those aircraft from that base in incirlik in turkey over to jordan well there are strong economic and social links between germany and turkey at the moment both the diplomatic links between the two countries well they're pretty much is low as they can get. well i said the comments made by german officials were all acceptable to an attempt to interfere with the g. destry president spokesman also suggested they were aimed at winning votes in the upcoming national election we discussed the issue with
10:04 am
a former turkish foreign minister pension of course is going up unfortunately. statement made by. the. shows that germany is planning to bring. to a higher level and of course the comments. from it because when there are. four german to not to move that the businessman will not pull the. german news one of the countries the huge investment if. you cannot move turkey's human rights record of course is not the best present turkey was not part of democracy but through the last two years attempted coup.
10:05 am
things are going. down. the american military say it's concern for the safety of its troops after a turkish news agency released a map showing the location of u.s. bases in northern syria in a comment to r.t. the u.s. central command said that the sources which contributed to the story cannot be independently verified that it would be very concerned if officials from its nato ally would purposefully in danger forces by releasing such sensitive information nikki reports. this is how america's military presence in northern syria allegedly looks now as according to turkish state news agency on the dollar it claims to have detected america's hidden outposts scattered across the kurdish held areas the agency reports there are as many as ten including two air bases one in army leon
10:06 am
which is large enough for cargo planes and used to supply kurdish forces and another inherent hit which is slightly smaller and reportedly used by military helicopters there's also said to be eight more military points which it's claimed are used to house military consultants operational planning offices and units to engage in active conflicts plus the equipment that allegedly includes artillery batteries rocket launchers and all new vehicles with the turkish news agency revealing washington's active operations in a war zone in thirty much detail with accurate or not it's likely upsetting for the u.s. and course the pows that ally the discussion of specific troop numbers and locations would provide sensitive tactical information to the enemy which could in danger coalition and partner force we respectfully request that you refrain from disseminating any information we chose not to disseminate all the details listed by the un a dollar agency like the number of u.s.
10:07 am
special forces and strategic talks of the outposts arguably a bigger question here is not about the publication's accuracy but rather why would turkey want to undermine its ally by revealing potentially dangerous details of its secret military bases well perhaps it has something to do with the location of these bases which form within the region controlled by the kurdish militia a group the u.s. considers to be a key ally in the fight against eisel but one which turkey deems as terrorists probably the turks are doing this and thinking done the same by in response to this event. thinking that you know we can tamper with turkish interests probably the turks return our thinking well we could probably get it to be a challenge for the american administration and other nato allies if you're not from fully respected as a former member then probably we should rethink this relationship in a sense threatening need to stability now turkey regularly slams the u.s.
10:08 am
over its support for the kurds but now by revealing this sensitive information it appears anker is using more direct tactics to strike back at its nato ally. well as europe experiences a surge in migrant arrivals many are raising concerns over ho it's being one full of its fleet which is currently accepting most of the new comers so use it doesn't have the resources to cope in spain activists have protested against refugee policies and violations of their human rights while in greece demonstration has been held against delays in the immigration process. about a hundred refugees and migrants protested i'd sign a big german embassy enough things that the ladies have left and separated from their families and stronger words divisions between different ethnic groups have
10:09 am
also been emerging in the overcrowded camps. reading. problem which is. most of the just the way things sort of decisions. african people sometimes if they are just says by saying they want to get their rights by their hand employ some. fundamental considers to syrian people they can get us to sign him quickly it's also not true
10:10 am
it would be. not only funky spots. people coming from africa feeling neglected when they arrived suddenly they faced. different treatment because of their skin color or because of different other variables when you feel that not receiving your interview in a couple of months but in four five six months you're seeing that there's a longer rejection rate for your community or for the group of people you are from your attention on your frustration raises meanwhile italy has been desperately calling for help seeing it feels isolated by other e.u. members the blockhouse however repeatedly its readiness to help but it seems italy's patience is rapidly running out trying to report. the city of messina is the beginning of the main ferry transit route to mainland italy there you have it
10:11 am
there are more and more migrants filling the local streets and there are no solutions coming from the central government and the european union brussels has been voicing repeated the readiness to help but italy says that saying something is different from actually providing real solutions and getting things done we need a unity of purpose international regional effort and this is why the opinion continues to work with the quartet for libya today that there is unity in approach . in europe is to me to lead to the location from we are continuing to push because in europe you know particularly you could actually in general the only thing that counts is. italy has threatened the you with issuing temporary visas for migrants which will allow free travel all
10:12 am
around europe and that will be of course a thorn in the side of the record breaking numbers of migrants and refugees have been arriving in the country in the recent months since january it's really has received more than eighty thousand refugees but those are just official estimates the numbers may actually be much higher and that led to unprecedented measures by the government for example restrictions on n.g.o.s that are trying to rescue the refugees that are coming from north africa on boats and also even leading to closures of here in sicily locals who are getting increasingly fed up with the situation there saying that responsibility must be shared i believe that welcoming people is the right thing but the european union must pay more attention to this phenomenon and support italy in this enormous effort social integration for the. people is a must but the e.u. cannot just look at it from afar it needs to get involved and not abandon italy and
10:13 am
sicily in particular. yes we feel abandoned i believe that the european union should really focus on its lizzi shoes especially on the issues that affect the south of italy we have been welcoming italians are true europeans sicilians have been welcoming and supportive for years but we are not willing to be the fools of europe the e.u. has left us alone this is our country we will try in every way possible to block this arrogance and the selfishness which is not european after a serious of protests in the region mayors of local towns around the scene i have decided to gather at the municipality behind my back to find solutions to the crisis there's a glimmer of hope that this can be done or a lack of action could lead to more protests here and also in the towns around the city assumed name day of rage brings more clashes between palestinians and the

washington. business to run this country business because. it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been. welcome back now the polls are making a gloomy reading for donald trump after the us leader learned that his approval ratings are the worst of any american president over the past seventy years but political polls have been proved fairly wide of the mark in several countries recently came up and explains how best to interpret the numbers. we're six months into donald trump's presidency and the pollsters tell us that his ratings have tanked but these pollsters don't exactly have the best record remember what they said right before the election most polls give clinton
10:16 am
a better chance of winning than slight for hillary all the major electoral map forecasters show hillary clinton winning the election. day trumped by the conventional wisdom and expectations polls showed hillary clinton was the favorite to win and they weren't wrong in the sense that hillary clinton did win the popular vote the polls were wrong about this race the entire time warps why are american pollsters getting things so wrong and can you read between the lines to get a more accurate picture here are some helpful tips posed in american made outs in a precise and definitive. so is there something we're missing to understand any poll you first need to know who's taken it. recent surveys in the u.s. seem to have picked out maybe democratic votes is leaving the republican voice behind but reports suggest americans are equally divided when it comes to party affiliation so what should we be looking for response rates the actual number of
10:17 am
people who've taken the pope over the last two decades in the u.s. view of people who seem to be interested in getting their opinions out to post as meaning the blanks to fill in for them based on probability and relying on factors like political preference and polish choices. that leaves us with something referred to as a sampling error which can be anything from one to five percent still a sizable number of possible mistakes. so now you know you pose shouldn't be taken at face value. some american pollsters even admit that they're having trouble getting things right you really don't have to justify it when you are the network and you have millions of viewers a.b.c. washington post c.b.s. new york times whatever you know that big into that whole release are an automatic several million viewers that poll is going to be discussed other networks
10:18 am
are going to be picked up by the associated press and so. you can be careless and get away with it next time you see a catchy headline based on a poll do the work the media doesn't want you to do read between the lines ok what mop and r.t. new york. plush is have erupted in bethlehem between palestinian protesters and israeli police to the west bank leadership called for a day of rage tensions have been running high in east jerusalem on the old city over the past number of days with the details for us here's our tease paulus linear . some of those clashes have also been taking place in the old city of jerusalem and the surrounding arab neighborhoods israeli police have been employing riot control measures now they've been using stun grenades they've been dragging protesters away

protestors in response have been throwing several objects various objects at the police themselves and dozens of people are reported to have been injured yesterday was declared a day of rage by the palestinian fatah faction and thousands of palestinians converged on the old city of jerusalem now all of this violence was sparked by a deadly shootout on friday in which two israeli security officers were killed by three israeli arabs since then israel has closed most of the entrances to the al aqsa mosque and has reopened several but those that it has reopened it is opened with metal detectors not palestinians say that this is an infringement on the right of freedom to worship they are also concerned that israel might be trying to change the status quo now the israelis and jordanians are in talks the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu has said repeatedly that he has no intention to change the status quo and we also know that the palestinian president mahmoud abbas has urged to calm the situation but this is
10:20 am
a hugely volatile area and many are bracing for more violence particularly ahead of a call tomorrow that has gone out by the jerusalem top muslim cleric and he has called for all mosques in jerusalem to remain closed and for worshippers to make their way to the compound so we are expecting another day of rage and potential clashes tomorrow friday. switching gears now it is the final business only day of the mercs twenty seven do universe show near moscow more deals are expected before the doors open for the public to see the latest innovation the russian. reaction industries are to offer ortiz. a partridge met with military aviation expert douglas bari at the event for the latest scoop. hello welcome to day story here it marks the international aviation and space shuttle michigan here above me that is it makes thirty five fighter jets just to prove that we really are
10:21 am
here and also it's just behind me as well that makes thirty five because what we got to be talking about today is all seeing is military and so join me to talk about what makes that plane so unique is douglas barry he was an expert when it comes to military avionics thank you very much indeed for joining me thank you so let's just very briefly talk about this particular plane what is it about the make thirty five that makes it so unique thirty five is probably the last iteration of a very famous fighter family of mccoy doing tilikum family thirty five is an upgrade in terms of engines avionics radar and weapons systems so this may mean that the aircraft is in service but also do you. what is it about this particular show the issue that's really impressed you what stood out for you to go through two things one just continues to develop its military capabilities secondly the chinese in the arena and presence they're both here in significantly more numbers and showing more equipment new level we've ever seen before that a mix to show not just barry who's a militia
10:22 am
a geisha specialist i should say thank you very much indeed for joining me on this also before we go let's have a quick reminder of all the aerobatics the specially strikes and everything else that happened on day so you hear it max that caught the eye we've seen some amazing planes and because the flying the sky there it's amazing to be here to take this for instance this is trace and it can fly they can also drive and they can spread. this behind me you can see these you rake and you know it is a drone as we know drones can fly and they can check out traffic and i can even spy on you but this. it's particularly special as you can say to people as well. another thing that i've seen here is a flying taxi just like those from back to the future. and we you know me.
10:23 am
and i had a sweetie experience of what it feels like to operate one of those cars so what you see now he says. yeah i'm calm but it's basically you can see sort of problems that make the operator to get around if you've got this big car that looks a bit like the batmobile is going to get all the pins that flipped suchness got the most is on it so it's got forty five minutes of i spoke to one of the men behind this project and he says it's only a couple of years to go before we'll all be able to enjoy the ride oh and turn to twenty if you go to dulles you just a pop up your mobile app and you will have an elevated walk through four of them for the they are toxic to pick you up when you were young girls if you think you very much indeed well there you go ladies and gentlemen week we always thought it was back to the future but the future perhaps just so far away these are twenty twenty. electronically tagging homeless people so access to their
10:24 am
every move can be tracked using a paid up sounds like a fearsome glimpse into an oppressive future but it's happening right now in london the man behind it is an unguarded danish artist. in central london during a photo shoot of the. yeah you're going to. look. if you're paying three and your eyes. and you know they don't do anything for you you take the. next i think you know you make me famous. and it works by giving the homeless a trucking device access to its data and. the images are then sold for tens of thousands of pounds to anybody who wants to watch them at any time half the money goes to each homeless volunteer their every day struggles also get splashed across the web and social networks the intention is to shine a light on poverty in an age when anything can be bought on our lives are always on
10:25 am
show. and i love the fact that the buyers are part of the project and it creates awareness and it turns to problem upside down the make fun of it and they can see it in the ferrari or whatever and they can look free i am not the guys in the park now it's november it's cold it worries me that frightens me chasing some sensational could have had that he is using another form of using the vulnerable just as a product as a commodity to some sort and slave to abuse them and the i don't see what the end point is how the benefit will be for the homeless person like in all good business deals everyone gets. walks away from the good sense so the homeless gets fifty percent of all after all expenses but only if they stay a year in the project and fill up the application in the contract and in no way
10:26 am
would i class what he's doing something else equal when you've got such a. i mean balance and somebody puts in somebody is vulnerable and somebody who's got a lot of money you know if there was inequality fine you know if you had twenty five thousand and i had twenty five thousand and i want to buy you for a year we can strike a deal but as soon as you've got an inequality it's honestly. just edging towards half past five in the evening here in moscow you're watching r t so i'm back at the top of the hour. dimension again six thirty five if you have a career. and
10:27 am
a career involves using your i phone in your computer and things like that in an office and perhaps you sort of killings have it circular. going to have to stop doing all this in this kind of you lou the minutes must be for. my world became smaller and smaller and smaller until i ended up winning it in a box. or out at a very strong magnetic field on my head in my head. it's like a real hard pressure my skin burned and that wireless access point there just continuous on saying with our students in the schools. we are just continually bathing our citizens in this microwave radiation it is certainly electro small and it's getting worse.
10:28 am
welcome to the kaiser report imax kaiser oh it's so dramatic it's script it's happening now it's in real time it's phenomenal stacy what is this whole thing well of course we're still in the summer solutions that max and there are many solutions needed for the crypto space of course because now we have this big block sized debate it's been going on for a few years but now it's actually open towards some say and there could be a fork there could be a hard fork that could be a thaw fork there's so many different issues going on in the next week or two general back in the one nine hundred ninety s. during the dot com boom we had something toward the end there called the y2k which was this big phantom menace that plague the dot com industry for months and then it came and went and it was a big nothing burger i have
10:29 am
a suspicion that this is the y2k nothing burger of twenty seventeen but let's get more insight but i also want to say before we go to jeremy who is our guest i do want to say another issue that we are going to address in this episode of summer solutions as a twenty six minute episode with jeremy we're going to talk about what the important thing to understand what this fork is and what the block size debate is about is what is big coin itself what solution is it offering to the global financial system so if you can understand that weather is supposed to be a better visa a better pay pal a better gold what is that actually i know that you have so much of the oh gosh of about whether it's a store of value or a means of payment and as a means of payment it hasn't really caught on the number of retailers actually in the world the something big point is dropped according to a morgan stanley report but as a store of value it's caught on spectacularly people see this as a safe haven currency.
