9:20 am
after north korea fired up ballistic missile over japan on friday photos of the launch of since being released with no new approach to the crisis agreed upon this is how russia's u.n. ambassador described what's occurring. we were discussing what a wild it would eat in a vicious circle where. it is a lucian a provocation a pro occasion that is a douche and then another provocation and we were contemplating as many people raised an issue that we have to think maybe out of the books and it does seem the current sanctions on military drills happening are failing to bring about a possible breakthrough on the potential. this is the most stringent set of sanctions on any country in a generation. these sanctions will cut deep and.
9:21 am
today's resolution builds on what we're already the deepest cutting sanctions ever leveled against north korea those sanctions are nothing compared to what ultimately will have to happen. french police along with their families are protesting over the working conditions of authorities across the country while now rally in paris is already under way officers say among other issues they are frustrated with the growing number of violent protests the have to do with.
9:22 am
truth. well the illustration of how unhappy french officers are with their jobs four hundred twenty riot control officers reportedly failed to turn up to police a labor law protest and choose that one police union official told r.t. the number is actually higher and thousand from today's demonstration in parsers artie's polyploid. french police and their thousands of protesting on the streets of paris today and in cities across bronx places they all lead up to having to put up good old working conditions to last
9:23 am
a day to buildings that equipment pinned down because they say that they're worried that fornicate on your investments is going to lead to greater risks being taken by the police and the police i'm very concerned here is a warning worked to the button and stretched to the onset maximum of their resources and they're worried that it not only affects them and their lives and their families lives detrimental late but more importantly that it affects their ability to protect the french public at a time when the country needs their protection the most french police say the government isn't doing enough to protect them on the front line with the country in a permanent state of emergency and unions are complaining that offices are forced to work in insufficient data conditions. french citizens have a misleading image of what's actually going on with law and order all the police
9:24 am
here whether it's on the street or the investigators they're working flat out they're doing everything they can but they don't have the resources to do everything that they can the national police are working and deplorable conditions offices have even tried to use some humor to draw attention to that can sons these images of vermin and rundown police stations were submitted for a police union photo competition asking for proof of poor working conditions adding to the pressure is the increasing number of terror incidents with security services failing to prevent seven attacks within the past eight months alone and the police themselves are often becoming targets french police officers of fallen victim to increasing. and so over the past year back in april it was here on the show say that it's your hardest gunmen shot dead a police officer and injured two others and in october twenty sixth outside of paris you told petrol bombs at four police officers one nearly died of his
9:25 am
injuries. that incident sparked protests from police unions demanding the french government do more to protect them and protests are underway again across france did you really they're protesting simply because they're down our resources their morale is not rock bottom but each subsequent government promises things that the never deliver the police never had enough and don't sworn to protest with a manual my quantised president police unions in the country are even more concerned macron promised to cut public spending and tackle france's public debt but french police say the country simply can't afford to cut corners when it comes to france's front line security. according to a preliminary investigation three children have died after a fire ripped through
