hearty americans do the same we are apparently better than food let's see some people you've never heard of love back to the night my president of the world bank hate him because he cheerfully sent us an e-mail. russia summons the deputy chief of the u.s. embassy in moscow to protest plans to search russian diplomatic sites in america remove the browns illegal and aggressive. at the shelves and corridors these are the latest pictures we're getting from russia's trade mission in washington d.c. it's one of three russian premises in the u.s. that the state department has ordered to close and as you can see there is barely anything left a couple of calendars and a potted plant and that is about. counterterrorism chief has revealed that britain has the highest number of islamist extremists in
1:01 pm
all of europe. was. a member of the white yeah we only got black people right and a police lieutenant in the united states has been fired after dash cam video showed him assuring a woman during a traffic stop the police only kill black people. my name is neil harvey you're watching our international. artie's ridley video agency has filmed inside russia's trade mission in washington d.c. which was ordered shut by the state department along with two other russian diplomatic sites and as you can see here from these latest pictures pretty much everything has been cleared out lots of empty shelves really nothing left in the
1:02 pm
cold or a couple of plants a couple of chairs you can see they've been stacked up onto the tables and really the only semblance of russia in there an aeroflot calendar there in the background russia has summoned the deputy chief of the u.s. diplomatic mission in the country to express his anger at the american security services intention to search a russian trade mission in washington moscow says that this is a clear act of aggression. we considered the planned illegal search of russian diplomatic premises in the absence of russian officials and the threat we have received to break down the door of the building is an unprecedented act of aggression well while the u.s. plans to the russian trade mission in washington early on friday it was reported that the b. i was planning to search the general consulate premises in san francisco which means that in just a few hours staff members will have to clear their premises for the u.s. security services to conduct the search now it will not only be carried out at
1:03 pm
russia's consulate offices but also at the apartments of staff who live in the building and who have diplomatic immunity now u.s. authority to say have ordered staff members and their families and we do know that some families have children and babies to leave their homes for apt to twelve hours now russia's diplomatic staff was given quite a short notice only thirty six hours warning now the state department has said that the facilities will be closed and entry or access there will be granted only with a special permission for the ministry spokeswoman on monday as a lot of us lay out these u.s. intentions she called it a raid and an invasion and the consulate office and homes of staff she also said that the orders of the u.s. authorities pose a direct threat to security of russian citizens and also seriously violates
1:04 pm
international norms on diplomatic and consulate relations we're talking about invasion of the consummate offices and departments of diplomatic staff with the latter being asked to leave not to stand we reserve the right through three actions however this is no choice it's been forced upon us this diplomatic route has been unfolding quite rapidly and the past few days now rushed us as a. conflict wasn't started by moscow but the us administration both sides continue to said that they do want to establish good relations but giving the latest circumstances it is really unclear whether it's still possible. so where did this tit for tat speech start back in december then president barack obama expelled thirty five russian diplomats of claims of election meddling president putin didn't study invited the children of u.s. diplomats in russia to a new year's party credit however go forward six months july and after the u.s.
1:05 pm
passed new sanctions against russia moscow expelled hundreds of u.s. diplomats cutting their level to the same number they said as russia has in the united states after that donald trump extended the sanctions following a congressional fight now washington has closed the russian consulate in san francisco for us diplomats that we spoke to believe the plan to search the consulate would be pointless. what are people going to do. gooders apartments around the consulate in san francisco illegal recipes for work and of course you're going to have. to go with your across it in st petersburg. ok. perhaps too many copies of your car go where the library this happens that happens usually at all we're a level. this time however it perhaps is more serious because it seems to be now be a mano a mano contest between mr putin and mr trump and there's not going to be anything
1:06 pm
left of interest to find quite frankly if there ever was anything other than confidential diplomatic materials which they're supposed to have there but the thing generally tends to be very tough finely tuned and balanced so that not too much offense is given because frankly things are already far too tense between the two countries already so there has to be great care taken when making gestures like this and to me again that means that anyone who's actually planning on raiding diplomatic premises in san francisco has lost their mind. the u.k. is home to more islam in sixty missed than any other country now that's according to the book's counterterrorism coordinator he also warned the future terrorist attacks in europe are inevitable and the situation has been looking at why britain tops the list. i was.
1:07 pm
both but i was a god was. recurring terrorist attacks in europe and the u.k. have become an unnerving fixture for europe's major cities as it turns out britain is at the top of the leaderboard when it comes to the number of extremists here there is many as twenty five thousand fanatics in britain more than any country in europe that's according to the use anti-terrorist chief three thousand are considered a direct threat by m i five and five hundred under constant surveillance to compare france with six terrorist attacks in the last two years is said to have seventeen thousand radicals spain the most recent victim of a major terror attack in europe just over five thousand so why is britain europe sixty missed capital where the fight to burn the supposing that in the highest
1:08 pm
number of jihadi some twenty five thousand does surprise me a bit because i would have expected france a proportion of belgium to. number given particular the alienation of the muslim communities in both those countries were no one i'm not surprised the new young muslims are quite alienated from her society and that's growing of research the impact of what britain itself has done and we should remember britain has been next the united states the main program for satanists in the various wars we have seen around the middle east the thirty five deaths caused by terrorist attacks in britain this year in westminster manchester and london bridge were carried out by perpetrators on the radar of the security services yet despite that awareness those terrorist attacks were to avoided and more are expected to happen. we are going to suffer more attacks the group's propaganda no longer calls so much for people to travel to the caliphate but to launch attacks in their places of origin or of
1:09 pm
residence even on a small scale with homemade weapons across europe while some perpetrators were known to the authorities others appeared to be leading ordinary lives and were even described as good guys this raises the question of just how many so-called good guys are totally off the radar or are currently in the process of being radicalized twenty five thousand people the security services can monitor that number of people every twenty four hours some of those attacks we've seen have been one wolf attacks it's very difficult if an individual or even tuesday small number of people plan something that was just simply wanted to get a hold of a vehicle get a hold of naives it's very difficult to pick that up so if the security services can't guarantee the safety of citizens who can the u.s. extended a european travel alert for americans this week making it clear that europe and britain are not the safest places to go and r.t. london. we spoke to the former head of britain's counterterrorism security office
1:10 pm
who thinks is simple to monitor such a large number of extremists. certainly you know with those carter numbers and where there are not going to be enough police officers to keep watch on them all but certainly twenty to thirty thousand people of interest in the security services that's one thing of course that boils down to probably about two or three thousand people who are really concerned and the police and security services are going to what it's no surprise it's feigns been attacked they've got the same problems as everywhere else and of course there are suspects that are in a society. that this is very difficult to police we're going to see a lot of terrorist attacks worldwide over the next twelve months and that's just the way it is and unless we can increase our intelligence and the u.s. are pretty good at intelligence and it's over sharing then all of us are going to suffer from terrorist attacks. that's comfort it has emerged showing
1:11 pm
a police lieutenant in the u.s. telling a woman during a traffic stop the police only kill black people he made that remark after she said she was too scared to reach for her phone. use your own head in your lab rather i got a. raw. if you're out of whack. remember we are black people yeah we'll black people right. away. we have. the litany so there was subsequently fired with his police chief criticizing his actions though also calling him an honorable man who made known for years. i feel that no matter what context you try to take those comments in the statements were inexcusable inappropriate. for a number of years and i'm always perceived him to be an honorable man but he made
1:12 pm
a mistake. surveys conducted by media outlets show that last year the number of people in the united states killed by the police was more than a thousand or since the beginning of this year the figures already above six hundred fifty of the different racial types the share of black people among those killed is not in the majority according to the mapping police violence survey since the beginning of this year fewer than thirty percent of those killed were black but in general they are three times more likely to be killed by the police in the us than the average american plus back in two thousand and fifteen thirty percent of the black people killed were unarmed discuss this issue vital hampton retired d.c. metro police chief he told us that the fire lieutenant's remark was racist. believe me it probably has come up in the twenty eight years that he's been on the police force cobb county georgia has been known to hobble racism as well as activities by the ku klux klan stall is right next to decaf canyon where len isn't
1:13 pm
and they have been the issue down there before so this guy did what has happened to this guy and the mistake is that now and this was caught on camera and then video not only a video but we saw that and heard the sound too so now he can't get around the fact that he used this racist term as well as it also to me is an indication of his behavior over devious so i don't necessarily believe the person who said that they've known i mean he's an honorable person i don't believe that. about this when you break. a leg. the feeling of. every. experience. and you get. according to just.
1:14 pm
come along for the. hard sell you on the idea that dropping bombs brings peace to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles. that you stop spreading tell you that because of the public by foul play. by. all the hawks that we are. watching.

1:16 pm
a tiny portion of the city is occupied by the syrian army and almost one hundred thousand people are trapped by eisel. as you monitor very late in the navy as isis terrorists raided our house my thirteen year old cousin was staying with us i had her in a water tank so that the terrorist didn't take her as a slave it was obvious that it's not the situation in there is or is catastrophic terrorist from iraq execute civilians in the streets and leave bodies lying there for up to five days i secretly drove my sons out of the city otherwise isis militants would recruit them by force inject psychotropic substances and gives them a suicide bomb and.
1:17 pm
geo political analyst patrick henningsen believes that the russian air force is being kinky to the syrian army's recent gangs. might be the most important choke point right now in the syrian conflict because of its geographical location regionally russia's been making incredible advances with airstrikes with the syrian armed forces on the ground and isis being basically pitched on both sides of a sort of a greater regional area that they had more or less strategic control over. a year a year and a half ago the radical of isis but not just isis also the al nusra front is absolutely going to stabilize the middle east as a whole syria can be seen as a stabilizing force an important player in the middle east.

city council has voted fourteen to one in favor of renaming the federal holiday was called columbus day but will now be known as indigenous peoples day jacqueline verger explains. at a time of heated discussion over america's historical figures and their often controversial past los angeles has become the most recent city to vote overwhelmingly in favor of renaming columbus day to indigenous peoples day the opposition to honoring christopher columbus whose brutal treatment of native americans is often overlooked coincides nicely with the recent fight against the symbols of the confederacy new. democratic economics under the pool were african-american and. that there is the christopher columbus statue that was vandalized someone took an axe to christopher columbus is that there is no red paint all over the statue removing columbus his name from the national holiday is meant to be a way to make amends and acknowledge america's bloody past but is the relabeling of
1:19 pm
a day really the best way to help america's indigenous people it's not going to affect people who do anything that's going to change their situation unfortunately they better be for a given day might be a good thing. or a cloudy day we can get if we can get something for them in terms of a date that's perfect and then that way we can do like i said go ahead and start talking about the issues at hand and then we can work towards getting getting more and more people should be other centers and care more about other people than they do that more people care about themselves these days than they do others or people focus more so than just change the name incomes for native americans tend to be relatively low and unemployment high in two thousand and fifteen poverty rates were the highest among any groups in america so perhaps efforts would be better spent on trying to improve the everyday trials and tribulations of the native americans instead and something important to note is that in l.a. many who were trying to keep columbus day as the holiday offered the idea of having
1:20 pm
a separate day and naming that indigenous people say but the idea was shot down leaving one wondering how much does renaming a day really and help the indigenous people of america and also why is this getting a second wind now perhaps has something to do with the anti confederate phenomenon . washington d.c. . now it all started with must demands for the removal of confederate monuments across the u.s. the issue is now spread to texas where the city of san antonio removed a confederate statue in travis park overnight following a city council vote let's recap some of what's been happening. i don't care if the george washington or thomas jefferson statue or robert davis they all need to calm down.
1:21 pm
yes pm executives have decided that. robert will not be in the broadcast for next saturday's college football season opener because of the similarities between his name and the veteran.

just three weeks to go before germany had stu the polls feel thirty's are looking at potential threats to the democratic process and it's russia once again finding itself in the spotlight these are all over explains. comfortably ahead in the polls but this election campaign hasn't been a walk in the park for eight years. and stand. by the kids i'm sure they know i know. i'm glad merkel remains around fifteen points ahead in the polls but that hasn't stopped the security officials from looking for a bogeyman in this election we believe russia is capable of starting dissin from asian campaigns in connection with the elections to the bundestag yes we heard about the u.s. election we heard about the french election now it's germany's turn is claims are being made that russia is out to influence the vote but this isn't the first time
1:23 pm
that we've heard these type of comments from hans the old musson. the instant of the american intelligence services are convinced that most likely russian intelligence services are behind the attack we have no evidence of course but it is obvious that a similar scenario was possible in germany too and he's not the only one bugging that particular drum. we have seen the alleged influence in the us elections the french elections as well as clear evidence to suggest that these attacks came from russia. there's a crucial hole in claims that russia is attempting to influence the outcome of this year's election in fact we heard the head of germany's interior security service talk about it just a few seconds ago that is there's no evidence no evidence that hacks took place in the past or that there's the intention to carry out hikes in the future in fact the german government has had to come out and admit this yet exact meudon kind of
1:24 pm
a cent i don't have any information that these kinds of food can be proved and they have no knowledge of them. germany has been the victim of high profile cyber attack in the past back in twenty fifteen the bundestag systems were the victim of a cyber attack and the finger of blame for that one remains pointed at russia russia was initially blamed for the deutsche telekom hack at the end of last year and that hack knocked nearly a million people offline across germany in fact though it was the work of a twenty nine year old british man who was doing it at the order of a liberian company in exchange for cash russian president vladimir putin was put on the spot about meddling in elections during the g twenty and amberg. we did not interfere in the u.s. election so why would we create any problems here we have good relations with germany it's our largest trade and economic partner in europe angle merkel looks
1:25 pm
almost nailed to be returned as the chancellor of germany but almost half of germans say they still don't know who they're going to vote for so the next couple of weeks could well prove to be crucial and being able to patrol yourself as the defend against foreign meddling could well be a vote grabber come september the twenty fourth piece for all of our. let's wrap up this half hour with another look at our top story there's a little more than an hour to go down till the complete closure of three russian diplomatic sites in the u.s. has been ordered by the u.s. state department artie's agency has been filming inside russia's trade mission this is in washington d.c. and it's like you're looking around for a new apartment and it's all spick and span has been completely cleared out empty shelves empty corridors of even been polite to empty the bin and put the chairs on the tables of that had some time to spare the department also ordered they ponder
