morning thursday the twenty seventh of july here in moscow now this is art international with me kevin oh in first the russian lawmakers are preparing their response to a new anti russia sanctions bill that was overwhelmingly approved by the u.s. house of representatives the restrictions are aimed at punishing companies with ties to russia's energy sector according to reports major businesses have been lobbying against new measures in congress and it's not only multinationals in the energy sector like b.p. like exxon mobil but also manufacturers like boeing and ford not happy to the new bill could also complicate european energy companies ties with russia there are fears that would be disruption is going to be meant into the major joint project called the nord stream to pipeline for a start when finished that is set to pump gas from russia to europe under the baltics. see companies from germany austria france and the netherlands have agreed

to pay half the cost of it investing almost five billion euro in the project as far as his kind of moped looks at how other countries that have been reacting now to the prospect of new anti russian measures the new sanctions targeting russia north korea and iran are not exactly a big here in europe the head of the e.u. commission decided to give the world a piece of his mind the u.s. bill could have unintended unilateral effects impact the e.u. use energy security interests america first kind of mean that europe's interests come last yes everybody has their own agenda and right now the usa is having a hard time getting everyone else to play ball take a look at north korea right now their economy is booming the best it's been in seventeen years at least that's according to estimates from the south korean central bank right now their g.d.p. their imports and their exports are rising despite international sanctions now

donald trump decided a long time ago who he thinks is to blame for that. treaty between china and north korea grew almost forty percent in the first quarter so much for china working with us but we had to give it a try and iran is a similar story even before the nuclear related sanctions were lifted under the iran deal india and china were buying their oil in your imports one hundred ten million tons of crude per year we would not decrease imports from iran iran is an important country for india despite u.s. and european sanctions on iran. china will import crude oil from iran based on demand and will not be influenced by the edicts of any country can america impose sanctions on other countries outside of the us the answer can always be no because the post world war two author of a us dollar gemini right out of washington d.c.

the so-called washington consensus is disintegrating it's falling apart and that the u.s. doesn't seem to want to take on reality they want to live in the past or they want to believe that they're the policeman of the world and they're going to impose sanctions they're just pushing germany into the arms of russia and then you've got an enormous axis of power you know with germany russia and china and they're going to get out of the u.s. dollar how's that going to help the american economy if the u.s. dollar loses its position as world reserve currency us leaders love capitalism in economic freedom but in the twenty first century global economy just because u.s. leaders don't want to trade with somebody doesn't mean that everybody else has to follow their lead up and r t new york next unlike the consultant who worked for congressional democrats has been arrested a bank fraud charges will try to leave the country he was a star for for debbie wasserman schultz the former d.n.c. chairwoman every now and work for house democrats for over

a decade with dozens of officials he reportedly had access to some of the d.n.c. chair as personal electronic devices to. take a closer look at this case now. a former congress i.t. aide was arrested by the f.b.i. on monday when trying to board a flight abroad that was for alleged bank fraud and well possible bank fraud in fleeing the country doesn't look good for him on the one his case gets more interesting the deeper you look i. i . i

. mean one family has a few skeletons in their closets back in february they were accused of charging congress workers double the actual cost for i.t. equipment and pocketing the profits and other reports suggest that they have been stealing and exposing sensitive data to outside sources and some people on the hill fear that the group may have been blackmailing house members i don't know what they have but they have something on someone something is wrong then mark interestingly enough they remain on washington's payroll and despite the accusations the ones enjoyed an unusual amount of loyalty from congressman one even saying the claims were based on this law a phobia i wanted to be sure individuals not being singled out because the nationalities of the religion they provided great service for me and there were certain times in which they had permission by me to access some of my dates among the family patrons with debbie wassermann schultz including when she was still democratic national committee chair she gave them wrong

a one direct access to her i pad which contain e-mails which infamously appeared in the d.n.c. leak schultz also reacted badly when capitol police attempted to search one of her laptops is a member loses equipment if it is found. by the capitol police or your staff and it is identified as that number members apartment it is supposed to be returned yes or no phones for. under my understanding the capitol police is not able to confiscate members equipment when the member is not under investigation i think you are violating the rules when you when you conduct your business. interests there that there would be consequences surely that warrants a bit of attention however the story never made it to the headlines of any major outlets in theory this story should be huge it's got all the right ingredients politics hacks sensitive data leaks and even blackmailing but of course it's missing one very popular trend a finger pointing at the kremlin. r.t. washington d.c. john howard you are from the us middle east the lawyers told us the mainstream

media turns a blind alley the stories like this though. mainstream media are in cahoots with the d.n.c. you know they have just turned a blind eye it just seems that the mainstream media is intent on doing the bidding of the democratic national committee i'd never thought that that journalism in this country it did reach such a low as to be so you know unfair in their analysis and to be so politically motivated in the way the cover because they cover cases there's so many question so i hope it doesn't go away and i think it's important for the non-mainstream media to kid to beat this drum so that it gets the either the coverage it deserves and that concert there are consequences for any illegal activities or that may have taken place. it's more troubling venezuela man was

killed there in protests on the first of a national strike that was called by the opposition the strike was initiated after the president called for a vote to elect a constituent assembly drop the country's constitution violent protests started back in april with demonstrators demanding that the president and the government resign police responded with force over one hundred protesters have reportedly been killed since those protests started spoke exclusively with venezuela's president would do it who told us the opposition has been full in the same strategy for years . i think the opposition has been doing this for eighteen years you know what the first against hugo chavez and for the past four years against me got me going there's no other way to resolve conflicts in the country than through democracy and elections in may for three and a hard weeks i tried to establish direct dialogue with the organizations but i wanted to include them in parliament but they refuse to think that this is a period of political isolation they drifted into right away when radicalism what

are their imprisoned by a strategy of violence and ignoring those who voted. but i mean israel is ready for any scenario i think is insane for the extreme right us to be talking of a blockade against in the way that. they've already started in direct blockade against our financial systems that all this was because the crisis over the past three years but we have economic strength in venezuela always pains want to own and fulfills its responsibilities on two thousand and seven to two thousand eight hundred and two thousand and nineteen our country might continue to build. a new report has found that german media have taken an overall positive position on the influx of migrants into the country and pay little attention to people's concerns over the crisis as paper all over our europe correspondent been finding out. in twenty fifteen i have germans flocked to welcome the refugees to

their towns and cities. i believe wasn't the whole story according to the results of an investigation into the german media's coverage of the migrant crisis they also brought a foundation claims that german media was more keen to present the image chilled the commons closed door than to give any time to those who were critical of government policy and refugees driving a wedge between right and left in society. up until late autumn twenty fifteen hardly any editorials dealt with the concerns fears and also resistance of a growing part of the population coming in two hundred pages long researches trawled through newspapers online reports and broadcast media they found that on average new sources were carrying seventeen articles daily on the migrant crisis during the summer of twenty fifteen on german television viewers were bombarded

with refugee success stories. this is why they call. it does figure in mind share holder and i like. so i. get how. the report claims dissenting voices were excluded from the conversation that anyone who asked questions who refugees were or why they came to germany were shouted down as populists all racists and the message came right from the top it's come down off and it's important for us not to follow those who would cordon us the hatred and the heart sick to exclude others while claiming german their identity for themselves and. what is of concern is the reports claim that the coverage of the migrant crisis has damaged the reputation of journalism in germany a considerable part of the population believes that journalism is apparently forced

to manipulate information. the report cites a recent poll by the university of mines in which over half of those surveyed said they felt lied to by the press with around a quarter same day believe that the government and the media were counting glove prompting the chants of lucan pious cell lying press to government and anti migrant gatherings peter all over r t in. political science has vernon told us that biased reporting is eroding he thinks many of the german people's faith in the media. germans usually trust the media and fear for it was quite an exception that they felt that there was a split between what they were observing and what the read in the newspaper during his month or so great influx of immigrants the media said well we have an educational function we really have to show germans that things are different then

both think but actually the media for carrying their point too far and this came as a deception for many germans and we could measure in the part of the clyde in trust to the media as a reaction on the side of familiar churlish started to apologize for having not properly fulfilled their professional duty is during this migration crisis kind of part of the break going too far again or just the way it is a look at the spike in alleged police brutality in the us. the future used to strengthen the partnership between the member states and the security to get of course and this partnership by night has to be governed by one basic understanding. really makes this

a group if you're trying to have the flexibility to undertake the programs and. must do most. people want all of them but speeds. here's what people have been saying about rejected in the us is it just. the only show i go out of my way to lunch you know what it really packs a punch. yeah it's the john oliver of r t america is doing the same. apparently better than the blue. sea people you've never heard of love back to the night president of the world bank. really seriously send us an e-mail if we take for instance the size large enough to destroy a city say forty meters or so of the million or so asteroids out there we have discovered perhaps

a percent or so of that ten thousand of them. so in other words i means that ninety nine percent of them are undiscovered so you should expect that the great majority of asteroids are very close to the earth to come as a surprise. but politicians do. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to express what you. want to. it's a joy to be present with what before three in the morning can't be good that i'm interested always in the waters of my. i gave her a good morning for me kevin owen here in moscow new dash cam video footage has

emerged showing that a man killed by police in america's atlantic city in twenty fourteen was shot forty five times the incident took place following a ten mile car chase after the man refused to be searched by offices warning you may find the images coming up here again disturbing. the police officer is seen as firing as soon as the man who was armed got out of his vehicle now we can show you all the images before the offices continued shooting long after the man continued to pose a threat we discuss what happened with a peace activist. actually the police in america are trained to shoot at the body mass to shoot at the to shoot for the vital organs and not to shoot in the legs there's always an excuse for using deadly force but let's be honest these kinds of excesses will continue to happen as long as we have persons who are teaching the

police to be brutal and violent instead of training to treat american citizens as if we are people not combatants. officers in the us are regularly queues of employing brutal policing tactics there's a look back at some of the high profile incidents from recent years. ah ah. you know you can see right here. we have this many shows police shootings nationally it is irrational that america calls itself a human rights leader. when the very basis of this country has been a systematic violation of human rights but it seems as if there's a conspiracy by the police to not shoot and if necessary kill violent

dangerous. people criminals in our society and they kill people who are not dangerous. way for the use of the a bit different next a comb plagues and technical board game that simulates all war between europe and russia has failed to sell many copies and left many of those who bought it totally confused got hold of it to try and see what it was all about. hi gary pauly i'm going to be reviewing a new game that's coming to our attention here it's in strong wind sorry robust box it could be a bullet proof but i'm going to be on boxing it and telling you all you need to know about it in order to find out what this game is all about.

very hard to unlock oh there we go face of the man himself very complicated instruction manual here can't have a board game without a board see it all the wall the mall because nuclear strikes i am recruited are up this engineer bad and i'm going to be an explain all conference room in order to give putin strikes its first sortie. where we go and you find a board games than the old school this is the instruction manual. there are these markers the russian forces the nato forces beats one join up so let's yeah i'll be rough said obed's. i'm going for the russian ones rising the russian ones should. you put your nato ones are using the nato one said good going to get it i.

say you planning on on taking crimea back so what was going on here and now unlike most war games the movement through the unit until. you actually have to be a nato general or a russian general to understand how this works you know this this game doesn't have to reflect reality is going to pass in the. but russian battalions do we have any slack to seize the anyone like a thank you very very much ben. ok guys say that was a little taste of pretend strikes for you mr putin's pretty special is probably the only one you're going to see in this game against the man in the specialist store when we had that we were the last people to ever practice putin strikes if you don't like it change to restore justice so that while the order this is

a pretty good place to stop whatever i'm so annoyed so game of snakes and that isn't the player anymore now the russian city is simply to supposed to be hosting a maybe parade this coming sunday was some giants of the water road show let's preview that. well look at it head to our worlds apart here's about the possible deployment of u.s. peacekeepers to syria is coming up later today. there has to be a peace agreement before there can be deployment of peacekeepers and you know this

pressure to present it with the secretary general has to start from mr keeps on trying to bring the parties together in collaboration of course. the permanent members of the security council. notably the russian federation and united states i was quite encouraged personally i'll go i don't deal with this matter that it be but there was. a. which was decided in the meeting between complexity and to present rather you put them and plans and. i think there are some groups right so we hope for the best over the last few years we have been changing to what we call in program the assessment so at every point of time the security is being assessed not by the u.n. staff should leave but by what they didn't should be made for them to be. to be present them to deliver their broken.

to. walking and from now or walk into the victor walk is to create awareness and promote healing around the subject child sexual abuse this type of behavior is absolutely acceptable because of the sentences that are handed down through the justice system. greetings and sell you taishan. already said hike hike hike my ark watchers because in just one week the biggest money making professional sport in the world national football league kicks off their pre-season here in the united states but this year's twenty seventeen season of pigskin great irons and glory as two. very large storm clouds darkening it's sunday afternoon horizons not only his former super

bowl caliber quarterback collin capper nick capital to lend on a team this offseason has raised some serious questions about an unspoken blacklisting of the quarterback by team owners for his activism and support of black lives matter but this week also saw the n.f.l. as ongoing battle with with and over traumatic brain injury taking a startling turn according the results of a new study published this week in the medical journal jama chronic traumatic encephalopathy or c.t.e. was found in one hundred ten of one hundred eleven former n.f.l. players brains really let that one sink in a minute one hundred ten out of one hundred eleven former n.f.l. players brains had this degenerative brain disease that is the definitively caused by numerous blows to the head dr and mckee director of boston university's center and co-author of the new study told the media that quote there's no question that

there's a problem in football that people who play football or are at risk for this disease and we urgently need to find answers for not just football players but veterans and other individuals exposed to head trauma yes the n.f.l. has made rule changes equipment changes they've donated vast sums of money to the study of c.t. and other brain injury related diseases but all of that work could just end up being nothing more than passing out life jackets on the titanic. what if what if playing the game of football is ultimately found out to be similar to playing a game of russian roulette with an automatic this begs the question will a league that clearly cares so little about the free speech and civil rights of its athletes actually care about their health and will we the fans who give them our hard earned cash care or will we just move on to the next crop of gladiators to cheer for when the old ones of slowly lost their minds find out if you start

watching the hawks. if that's. the bottom. like you that i got. this. week. well what is a watch box a robot in times have in a while if i would i'm sure many groups are freaking out at home right now like wait a minute while the hawks talking about sports it's a political talk show why are they talking about sports. i'm bringing up we're bringing up the n.f.l. issue and semantic brain injury and things like that because look entertainment dominates our society today those who say that we spend more money on entertainment than we do almost on anything.
