thank. germany's foreign minister issues a warning against tourists traveling to turkey after human rights activists were arrested by ankara and the rag over german companies supporting terrorism. exposing vulnerable a turkish news agency publishes a map showing the location of american military bases in northern syria sparking concern in washington and freezing mase approval rating plummets by the u.k. prime minister has been say were unpopular in the months following a general election.

hello there it's good to have you company watching r.t. international now is animosity continues to grow between ankara turkey has reportedly put dozens of german companies on a list of supporters of terrorism and arrested several human rights activists the developments have led the german foreign minister to declare turkey unsafe for tourists and investors with more his piece or all of. the latest scandal in this deepening divide between turkey and germany revolves around well allegations that may or may not have been made by turkey against sixty eight companies registered here in germany now on this list of sixty eight are the likes of be a s.f. the chemical giant daimler who of course make luxury motor cars and this was then followed up on thursday with a response from the deputy turkish prime minister met sim sec he said that these were completely false and that turkey welcomed german investors so just who was

telling the truth so we reached out to the german interior ministry and asked them if they'd received these this list that was reported in the german press they got back to a saying that turkey had sent materials to the criminal police but there'd been no concrete details and the police forces decided not to follow them up but this follows hot on the heels of another major diplomatic scandal involving the arrest of a german human rights activist in turkey well this prompted the german foreign minister to break off from his holiday come back it's a burden for the turkish ambassador to be summoned to the foreign ministry and well some of the harshest words we've heard to date from zig mar gabriele in his role as germany's top diplomat will take another angle when it comes to relations with turkey to quote this is the conviction as martin shoots and the german chancellor to there isn't much else we can do ankara has to take responsibility and we have to

make it clear that this kind of politics is not without consequences. from their side uncurse have called the statements from mr gabrielle unexceptable have called them and at a ten to interfere in the turkish judiciary and also president the ones people have issued statements suggesting that this could be an attempt to try and win. votes by german politicians ahead of an upcoming election by trying to look strong on the international stage but you cannot get away from the fact that relations between turkey and germany are at the lowest ebb that anybody can remember in recent memory certainly we've seen them fall out over the military reasons we've also seen the fallout politically are pretty much not a sphere of society that they haven't fallen out on just yet and it certainly doesn't look like it's getting better anytime soon peter all over there will be head of the research center for turkey studies told us that domestic political and

both countries is contributing to the tensions well i think this least this view has to be seen within the context of what was essentially been a kind of tit for tat ongoing argument the scorn on between turkey and germany now for almost every year this is so this is kind of been an ongoing dispute that has kind of flared up now and again especially in the times where there's been elections in the two countries so i think like a lot of this is on the lines of the internal done by numbers of both countries and ultimately. what's new here is that we're now talking about the germans and the beginning to. think of what is going to tell you the news about many of the european governments that are trying to back up now in the context of last year lows failed coup emotions of running very high and basically was happened it's made it very easy for the government to essentially associate any criticisms of the government with criticisms of turkish democracy. the american military says 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 and the comments say the u.s. central command said the sources which contributed to the story cannot be independently verified adding that he would be very concerned though if officials from its nato ally would purposefully endangered forces by releasing such sensitive information with more his. this is how america's military presence in northern syria allegedly looks now according to turkish state news agency on the dollar it claims to have detected america's hidden outposts scattered across kurdish held areas the agency reports there are as many as ten including two air bases one in army leon which is large enough for cargo planes and used to supply kurdish forces and another inherit here 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 cap that allegedly includes artillery batteries rocket launchers and all made 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 antelope agency like the number of u.s. 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 down the same line in response to smoke. thank you but you know we can tamper with turkish interests probably the turks are thinking well we could probably use it to get the challenge of the american administration and other me to allies if you're not from fully respected as a member then probably should rethink this relationship in a sense threatening need to stability now turkey regularly slams the us over it 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 meanwhile

president spokes person on thursday said the turkish government did not play a role in the publication he also called it unthinkable to endanger the lives of any country soldiers security. while reports are emerging that president trump has decided to hold a covert cia trained in assists program for moderate rebels in syria although u.s. officials have so far declined to comment publicly this story has been gaining a lot of media attention many publications are trying framing the reported move as a victory for vladimir putin they suggest trump has capitulated on a key u.s. foreign policy goal in order to try and improve relations with russia the rebels were being trained to fight against the moscow backed government of bashar al assad at the cia program was launched back in twenty thirteen under the obama administration it has provided training for commanders from the free syrian army bases in jordan also supplied certain opposition groups with weapons and equipment

to the scheme has reportedly cost one billion dollars a year and it's not free with ak its critics either we can have a look here in twenty fifteen overall spending on the program was reduced following claims of ineffectiveness and then in twenty sixteen clashes between two different rebel groups one armed by the cia and the other by the pentagon and raised further questions as did reports that some. of the weapons intended for syria were in fact a repeatedly stolen by jordanian intelligence agents and resold on the black market one former u.k. ambassador to syria told us that the significance of the decision to end the program is being overblown it's hysterical quite simply if you can put russia or in a headline in the mainstream media in the west that makes the news in truth being saleable it is not based on any object to reality.

in this case what may turn out to be quite modest inflection of american policy long overdue supported by those pillars of the deep state. the national security agency. trump getting could do so i doing something which you eminently sensible just because a line through a little bit closer with russia is. now europe experiences a surge in migrant arrivals many raising concerns over how it is being handled italy which is currently accepting most of the new comers says it doesn't have the resources to cope and in spain activists have protested against refugee policies and violations of their human rights while in greece an angry demonstration has been held against delays in the immigration process.

about two hundred refugees and migrants protested outside the german embassy in athens with the lights of left banners and separated from their families and stranded in groups divisions between different ethnic groups have also you know merging in the overcrowded camps. legal. problems which is. most of the city just waiting for the decisions to.

make them people sometimes if they are just start by saying they want to get their ride spidey their hound employs some of the. big bosses or see syrian people they can get assigned him quickly and sell some trees it would be. not only fun to spot the. people coming from africa feeling neglected when they are arrived suddenly they faced the. different treatment because of their skin and skin color or because of different other rights and 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. me modestly has been desperately calling

for help saying it feels isolated and abandoned by a member of the bloc however has repeatedly fois its readiness to help but it does seem a sleaze patience is rapidly running out is it now reports the city of messina in sicily geography is double trouble for the locals in southern italy that is failing to cope with the ceaseless flow of migrants and refugees first of all the island of sicily is the migrants primary destination after they cross the mediterranean and the port city of messina is their gateway to mainland europe the mayors of local towns have gathered together right there to discuss the issue there are seeking help from rome there you have one called liked rome and its turn is seeking assistance from the e.u. and there you have your second conflict the italian government has even threatened

the european union that it could issue temporary travel visas for the migrants which is of course going to be a thorn in the side of the e.u. now this of course leads to a lot of confrontation between officials in brussels and rome they need a unity of purpose international regional effort and this is why the european union continues to work with the quartet for libya today that there is a unitarian approach the only. asking europe is to. lead to the location we are continuing to push because in europe you know particularly in. general the only thing that counts. ever since january italy has received more than eighty thousand migrants and refugees and this is just the official figure the real one could be much higher among the president measures that could be thrown in now restrictions against n.g.o.s who are helping

the migrants. and also even setting down the ports we ask the people in the streets where all of this is going there are no jobs for our people and so of course there won't be any for migrants they can't stay here because we're still in crisis germany in the you and helping us in italy the migrant crisis was caused by wrong european policies there's no doubt that the arrival of the migrants causes trouble with public order and safety we're experiencing social tensions because of this. i blame our government for this they dodged the problem instead of using common sense anyway italy is not a cosmopolitan nation which doesn't mean we're racist but we should help migrants and their country is right behind these doors more than forty local mayors have spent hours discussing the issues and try to find solutions to this hopefully we'll get a word from them when they come out. in a prank reporting from sicily there now the u.k. prime minister theresa may has hit record low approval ratings following her snap

election set back with more on this his. well this is one of those records that nobody wants to hold to reason may's approval rating is at an all time low according to this source mori research and what this poll is done is that it's looked at all the modern day politicians and where their popularity was at a month after the general election and two reason may have the lowest approval rating of any prime minister a month after the vote pouring salt on her wounds will be the fact that the same research data has shown that the leader of the opposition labor party jeremy corbyn he's scored a personal best he's never been more popular than he is right now and i think what the pollsters are most fascinated by is this b. which the prime minister's fall in the popularity ratings has taken place back in

april when two reason may call for snap election personal approval ratings a massive her conservative party worse an all time high but she was then seemed to have waged a bit of a disaster of an election campaign she refused to take part in televised debates she did many huge social policy issues and of course the u.k. was also hit by a string of terror attacks in the run up to the general election here and and after that disastrous election result to top it all off there was also the gren fell tower disaster which a lot of people have said has become sort of two reason may's hurricane katrina moment the prime minister was forced to apologize for the government's inadequate response to the tragedy and also for the failings that led up to it happening in the first place and if all that wasn't enough there's this sort of slow chug chug of the brags that negotiations are under way it is becoming ever more apparent that

these talks with brussels are going to be long and they're going to be painful we've just time for the second part of these negotiations. wrapped up in the u.k.'s brags it minister david davis however upbeat he tried to sound he couldn't hide the fact that michel barnier the e.u. chief negotiator was all effectively complaining that britain hadn't done its homework that the e.u. still waiting on britain for clarifications on a number of key issues going forward so the prime minister now has a lot to think about as the politicians head away from parliament and from westminster for their summer break while across the atlantic donald trump recently found himself in a similar situation his approval ratings after six months in office were the worst of any american president in the last seventy years although at times polls can be misleading and explains now best to interpret them. we're six months in

a 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 a better chance of winning than slave 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 through 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 and 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 people who've taken the po 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 are filled 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 that poll released are an

automatic several million viewers the poll is going to be discussed other networks are going to be picked up by the associated press and so. you can be carol lists and get away with that 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. r.t. new york. israel could place more troops on standby in the west bank reportedly saying the soldiers will be deployed if backup is needed tomorrow for friday prayers this is a made major tensions that have been running high in east jerusalem and the old city over the last few days some of the violence has been posted online here you can see a police officer punching what appears to be a peaceful in the face. brings us the latest from bethlehem.

some of those clashes have also been taking place in the old city of tbilisi and the surrounding neighborhoods israeli police have been in point why it's 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. old 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 now 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 a hugely volatile area 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. last week vladimir putin sent the internet into a frenzy over a mysterious passion just seen in the back of his car although the reveal wasn't quite a spectacular is a people had been hoping for. it's

. called.

the initial disappointment didn't last too long though as people began guessing the contents of the red bag instead the footage was filmed during president putin's visit to a sacred want to stray north of simply. a spokesperson. it say he was holding the bag before it was seen in the president's car up with. everything that gets caught in the camera unfortunately it requires explanation. there are no ministries. visit the president public and private programs. with the read books belong to the private one. and as i understand it was meant for personal use. we have. through speaking of private life the president people and leaders need some time to themselves out of the camera. that high tech

children's toys could be spying on them apparently the warning from the f.b.i. which is issued that to american parents the bureau posted an advisory on its website detailing the possible safety risks posed to youngsters by internet connected toys it says that smart devices with senses cameras and microphones could all be used collect to collect and store a child's personal information adding that they could become vulnerable to exploitation and identity fraud too that could happen in the event that children reveal personal details and conversations with their own near the toy cyber security expert hey moon again told us that they could also be physical risks and that parents should make sure protections are in place. absolutely rio worst case scenario here we're connecting our children to these toys which are connected to the internet in essence we're exposing them to anyone around the world and their

child can imagine a child in a normal setting saying to their teddy bear that's connected or mommy's not home she went to the grocery store it's you and me buddy all of us and the hacker knows that child is alone at their house and with a g.p.s. connected to it they know exactly where their child is alone at their house one of the greatest things that parents can do is actually take control of the situation and make sure your password protecting the wireless routers which many people don't like doing and they keep it open which means opening the front door. finally this hour it is the last business only day at the max twenty seventeen a moscow more deals are expected before the doors open for the public to see the latest innovations that the russian and global aviation industries do have to offer kate partridge is their first and she caught up with military aviation expert douglas barry. hello welcome to day story here at maks the international aviation
