yeah. the headline. here on the program. i think that there are ways that it can be done. in a way that for treason. and desperate situation should be. i should be. child's.

play should the way they did. we were clear that we didn't think it was going to be helpful. follow through with the. wednesday morning here in. a very warm welcome to. a new study has warned of the. first suicide spike this following the release of netflix thirteen reasons why series the controversial show tells the story of a girl who commits suicide and has generated. countries who

could negatively influence. pennebaker. suddenly become about to tell you the story of my life. more specifically why my life ended. and if you're listening to this tape. you know one of the reasons why in the us two families blame the serious for driving the children to suicide we spoke to the father of a girl who hanged herself just before her sixteenth birthday he says his daughter suffered from depression and the netflix show pushed her over the edge. the show acted. like there's a word in psychology it's called a trigger that means that you react to something. and it triggers a response with you and it left my daughter. feeling worse than she had

before this is not the way it's supposed to be my daughter should be alive today i should be able to hold her in my arms should be able to care for her i should be able to hear her. but now i can't she's just gone she's gone from me forever. aging reaction to the recent study on the impact of this netflix program. nineteen days after the program was released google searches for suicide related topics increased by more than twenty percent that means roughly nine hundred thousand to one point five million more than usual from phrases like suicide hotline or teen suicide or more worrying phrases like how to kill yourself all of them are on the rise i've seen multiple psychiatric admission knows that it detailed the presenting problem of why the teen is is there being one a couple of times them saying that they wanted to kill themselves in the way that

the girl from thirteen reasons why did suicide prevention experts are warning that the show is kind of romanticizing suicide and unhealthy relationships all of which could lead to copycat behavior among teenagers for teenagers who in general are still developing the ability to regulate their emotions and their desires for those teens and especially those who have already perhaps contemplated suicide a series like thirteen reasons why can be problematic let's ask people how concerned they are are you a parent i am a part would you allow your son or daughter to watch this this new program with a company of apartments where you know if you put something to somebody's head and they already had that thought it might be encouraging but you can't control what people are going to do they might hear it on the street they might hear it in school you know that you never know i mean just because they hear from you doesn't mean it's your fault if you were a parent would you allow your child your children to watch that show louie i would

absolutely because i want them to experience life is all about the ups the downs the ugly the good all records should show that i reckon that people should be able to handle those types of the experience to be honest ok are you a parent. now if you were a parent do you think you would allow your son or daughter to watch that show or have a different view if i was a parent the producers of these shows need to be socially and ethically responsible for what they're putting out and. bare minimum that means that for if it's netflix for example before and after each episode in the series they need to put places for where they can get help such as the suicide prevention lifeline they need to be doing that at a bare minimum so that if it challenged well there will child gets triggered during the episode that they know where they can go to turn for help we are not flicks about the study's findings it told us that the show was intended to promote discussion of a difficult subject matter however the father we spoke to told us there are other

ways to highlight this issue and i think that there are ways to show that i think that there are ways that that it can be done that a positive note but never in a way that was that like this never in a way that richard is it is such a dark and desperate situation the fact is that netflix does not care what the medical profession has to say they don't care what educators have to say they don't even care what parents have to say on netflix cares about is making money from this show does not acceptable and this needs to stop we still have a voice as consumers or just as citizens we have a voice and we do have power to make change. the u.s. government's afghanistan watchdog has urged the pentagon to declassify a report detailing allegations of child sex abuse by afghan forces. the report was

concerned delegations of sexual abuse of children by members of the afghan security forces because it's classified much of the information on which the sego report is based the report is classified seger has requested that the declassify the report the watchdogs report more generally concerns u.s. funding in afghanistan and whether forces receiving assistance comply with human rights laws it deals with how the u.s. military and state department are implementing the so-called leahy law this prohibits the government from providing aid to another nation's security forces if there is credible information that human rights have been violated. now the watchdog also cites the state department as saying that the afghan government has failed to meet human rights standards and that afghan officials are complicit in the sexual abuse of children by afghan security forces or the u.s. government meantime is accused of turning a blind eye to one afghan custom in particular known as. this involves the sexual

abuse of pre-pubertal and an adolescent boys and has been illegal in afghanistan since the start of this year. yeah. it is a. little boat this is. a show that was. it's something that's there. it's not the first time such allegations of afghan soldiers were raping young boys have surfaced back in two thousand and fourteen human rights groups claimed abusers were often paying bribes to hide their crimes but in two thousand and fifteen reports surfaced that

american military personnel were being told to look the other way in order to maintain good relations with afghan units allegations of child sexual abuse by afghan military or police personnel would be a matter of domestic afghan criminal law there would be no express requirements that u.s. military personnel in afghanistan report it one possible explanation is the leahy law the process through which u.s. government that's foreign security forces as well as defense training programs to ensure recipients have not committed human rights abuses and other words break human rights laws and there's no more money and that could prove tricky in afghanistan where over the last fifteen years washington's pumped in over seven hundred billion dollars and they're not planning to stop any time soon twenty seventeen is going to be another tough year for the value of afghan security forces and the international troops moved good and will continue to stand shoulder to shoulder i do believe it will involve additional forces to ensure that we can.

make the advise and assist mission more more effective a presence yet to define his afghan policy many hope human rights will trump war. r.t. washington d.c. . the u.s. secretary of state says both he and the president do not support the new sanctions against russia. so that action by the by the congress to put these sanctions in place in the way they did not of the president nor i are very happy about that we were clear that we didn't think it was going to be helpful to our efforts but that's the decision that i made that made it a very overwhelming was a president accepts that the u.s. congress voted last week by an overwhelming margin for fresh sanctions against russia restrictions will affect russia's mining metal and energy industries and moscow has already reacted to the move by reducing america's diplomatic mission in russia by seven hundred fifty five workers and seizing two properties the secretary

of state noted that relations with russia are under considerable stress but he remains hopeful all indications are he will sign that that bill and then we'll just work with it on that's kind of my view is will work with it we got it now we can't let it take us off track of trying to restore the relationship well i think it signals a dysfunctional president the president not only is that war with congress his own party has turned against him in congress the neo cons of turn him again against him in congress he's fighting is now is old in a stray shouldn't that the people that he's appointed to senior positions fundamentally disagree with him on foreign policy you know what so completely lopsided that his options are to look at stream lee week by vetoing it and having an override or to simply accept his fate and be boxed in by his own party in congress talk about humiliating situation that the president has and

the new sanctions bill comes amid shake ups in the white house president trump appears to be still forming his team and picking people most loyal to him. we could use some more loyalty. who is it that tells him the hard truth almost everyone around someone. serving the president has been the honor and privilege of a lifetime. he will do a spectacular job i have no doubt i think we're in pretty good shape the. president has got to select the right. to carry out his vision of

a strategy. canadian human rights activists are calling on the government to review a multi billion dollar deal with saudi arabia that's off the obligations of most and local media but canadian vehicles are being used by riyadh and its crackdown on the she. has promised to look into their claims. we are looking at these claims very seriously and have immediately launched a review of. the abovementioned crackdown by saudi authorities has been taking place in a predominantly populated area in the east of saudi arabia and this muslim religious

group is a minority in the mostly sunni kingdom in the village of is the birthplace of the prominent shia cleric. who was executed back in january twenty sixth. verified video has surfaced allegedly showing canadian made vehicles being used by saudi security forces during the ongoing campaign to quell the unrest is what a local resident told us about the plight of civilians caught up in the violence in . their food for. almost all day. we should warn. you more it used to. be really helping.

the food. so saudi arabia ranked among the top destinations for canadian arms exports and twenty sixteen of the military purchases totaled one hundred forty two million canadian dollars human rights activists we heard from say profit seems to have prevailed over the concern for human rights in the case of saudi arabia. about a year ago last summer there were. reports from the saudi arabia there were videos of similar vehicles being used armed vehicles being used against civilians in saudi arabia canada's export control laws the actual criterion by which a sale should be approved or not the proof is whether there's any reasonable risk that the arms being sold could be used in human rights violations and my hope would be that they can even government in our foreign affairs minister chrystia freeland

really make the right decision on this but honestly given the track or the record of the current government i don't hold out too much hope that they'll go back on this deal and honestly for me to say that it's a little problem the process rather than the human rights that would be expected from the given and they going to buy the vehicle and put them in a museum for example of course they are going to use them without inside or outside and out of fortunately they are using them now. it is already international thanks for joining us but italy has brought in new restrictions for n.g.o.s seeking to aid migrants crossing the mediterranean it will shed some light on that story in just a moment.

later to. play. in case you're new to the game this is how it works in the economy is built around corporation corporations around washington washington controls the media the media control over the voters elected to businessman to run this country business equals power who must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before.

i desired international thanks for joining us aid groups operating migrant rescue ships in the mediterranean have been outraged by a new code of conduct being forced on them by italy. goes against our mission which is to save lives it goes against this really goes against our hearts. as a medical and humanitarian organization and it's not something that. italy says or those refusing to sign will no longer be covered by the system of sea rescue and will face consequences so let's take a bit of a closer look at the rules or under this code now first it obliges groups to allow police officers on board aid boats must also take migrants to safe ports themselves rather than transferring them to other vessels and phone calls all flares from ngo vessels on our band if they can signal to human traffickers when

it's safe to send a boat to sea and we talk to representatives of the aid groups both those who support the code and oppose it and share their concerns but it is not easy to see i think in many young boy. who want to read to me. want to know this it was not the need for these schools we only really. really operate under all the laws on the legal framework this means i was ahead more desperate people and it's totally against our will to whom the military and the same thing be it have decided to move the story points off this. one day you want to say and so let's just point is i'm totally against the national law against so you know we also got reaction from the defend your group which was against mass migration to europe and is trying to put a stop to the work of aid and. but because we are against mess immigration to europe wants to stop this madness this n.g.

all madness. and because everybody's just talking in the what is acting feeling you're stepping in what you're doing going to do is you're going to all watch t.v. and jewels and i think what they're doing there is it's nothing to it because they're actually a sports factor and basically they are the reason for. the other reasons people twenty and the up making a fortune for this human trafficking rings in libya destabilizing the country i think the future for europe the future of europe cannot be to become second africa . a group of police officers has been accused of using excessive force after being caught on video repeatedly tasering a scene in made while he was being held in a restraining warning you may find some of the following images distressing. are the allegations are part of a lawsuit filed by the victim's family against the children county jail in the u.s.

and the victim claims to have been tasered in several instances and for great lengths of time after being arrested on drugs on weapons charges last year a surveillance footage shows the teen about chair and at one point he was gagged and all the while being being tasered as well are photos taken afterwards also appear to show the extent of some of the teen's laser burns. he says that he was left with at least forty across his body now the sheriff's office says it will be conducting a review of the incident which has already led to three deputies being suspended meanwhile we also spoke to the president of an activist group concerned by police brutality and people end up in the jail who've been brutalized and then that brutality continues in the jails and into the prisons it's kind of like the whole system from beginning to end that is dominated by brutality and the only issue is that in the prisons of the jails we it's not as visible we can't see it as well and so we don't typically get access to these types of videos jailers have enormous

power the head jailer which is the sheriff in this case has to be a bailable watching his staff at all times he has to be monitoring their conduct because you know people with absolute power abuse it absolutely and so it's really he the that the sheriff is saying that he wasn't even knowledgeable about what his own staff was doing i think it's reprehensible he should resign. the french president's party has released what it calls a notebook for the whole of his notebook includes all the main issues that were part of my. program such as a college you for example and. ecologically aware you are it also contains one of my favorite phrases make our planet great again and if you know french you can test it if you speak the same language as the president. went to the streets of paris to find out if the citizens. with. some ease if.

she. sees. things. some. to keep. the days. the. get going together. so we asked people on the streets of paris today speaking. what is the information that some are saying. if. i don't know

i don't know what it is. no i don't know. the simple i don't know if bird. i think this is a song or remakes. to my mind this is something related to madame bovary. maybe this is related to madame bovary. i think that's a french literature correct so this is a desert something to eat because he does not speak the scene language he's adapted that he does not speak to seem language this is very difficult for my generation basically you don't speak my call. i don't speak no i don't say crackle i don't speak my phone all the booklet was quickly mocked online after it appeared.

the world aquatics championships were a success for russia it's a film about winning medals and we spoke to the athlete you know dreams of on

a limb pickle. i don't like to take revenge at all while my father always tells me that i don't have enough of the so-called fighting spirit and i should be more competitive and i've actually never thought about it i just know that the two hundred metre breaststroke is my thing i should be working on my one hundred metre performance though i want to have both of them that will be great. always i realize there should have a different attitude this is just the process of training and participating in competitions i just enjoyed my coach used to tell me enjoy the competition the reason you do all that and the reason you swim and train he said because you really like it and i've started to enjoy competitions and competing of course it's always better to win and then you have even more emotions if you really should be able to simply enjoy things enjoy your life if it was a road to success is not be uneasy if you were suspended for doping and twentieth century tested positive for mel dhoni and twenty sixteen hour over the professional suspension lasted only four months the international serving federation banned her

from the rio olympics but your frame of appeal the ban and won the case but only after the games had begun however she had to put up with a pretty big wave of criticism. you wave your number one finger and you've been called a drug cheating i'm not a fan i think lily is right i think something needs to be done. cheaters are choosers if you are has tested positive and she's gotten away was it that's just not fair well i despite all the stumbling blocks. so she feels very happy and will remain positive. my first olympic games when i was sixteen i finished in fourth and i suffered a real nervous breakdown i remember well how the u.s. team tried to comfort me he was shocked asking my coach what had happened he said i was not disappointed because i came in fourth and they were puzzled telling me that i was only sixteen and i had come in fourth at the olympics why she crying i ask why was because our sports officials were quick to criticize me for my results

saying it was awful but now i finished third at the world championships and bearing in mind all that has happened to me and over hard training and everything i can see that is really great i wish everyone could feel like that and take the bronze and i would be good i think more news and half an hour. welcome to the ok are already not really right. when they're not going back.

is an american inspired attack on north korea in every one certainly gets that impression listening to washington's war hawks is north korea a growing military threat of course it is but it is also under threat is there still time for diplomacy. but of course a lot of b.s. to the. well let me kind of mushy finally and i'll let the art of our. much more outlet happy and with a laugh it shall get a letter i learned the home had that. story.
