try to do. the country. believe. and teach. us secretary of state. about north korea diplomatic solution. wasting time trying to negotiate with.

these great. people to. hate speech critics want to limit. the freedom. morning here. over eight hundred. voters have been injured in heavy. despite madrid's efforts to disrupt the voting. has already published the results with ninety. supporting catalonia as a breakaway from spain here's

a quick recap of what happened on sunday. the spanish prime minister addressed his country just minutes before the end of the referendum which he proceeded to deny had actually taken place. bob

you go but if i didn't feel good that i mean if you're going to. feel. we have to feel. good about a few good posters are going to stop at a party or not you're not. going to be of. the most you're going to simplify but i. now across watch what he has within a culture of a study by live in boston on a good morning to you my dear you know i suppose the question is what is the mood where you are off the last night. while people are still thinking about what happened on sunday as sunday was a very difficult and awarding day for this citizens of council and for so many

people here as started way before sunrise in the middle of the night when they came to different areas with their family members with their friends to protect the polling stations of their neighborhoods from police forces and they told us that it is important for them to remain a peaceful gathering it was important for them to defend their rights to vote to defend their fundamental human rights this is what they kept telling us throughout the day yesterday but very quickly right after the polling stations were opened everything got violent and we've seen a police precinct people out of polling stations using force to worse the different sorts of people from students two thousand the people they were breaking down doors breaking down windows out the polling stations doing everything and their power to print tack to print prevent the referendum from go. forward now for many people in

council on and it was a shocking experience we talked to a devastated people in the streets of basilan they never expected to see said attitude coming from the police forces but the leader in the evening at the address made by the spanish prime minister surprised almost everyone. but i'm sure you can be the party with this day of hope and suffering and that the citizens of catalonia have earned the right to an independent state in the form of a republic we have very special things to the state security forces to the national police and the civil goods they have carried out the jews the mandate they received from the will thirty's. by this differing approaches represent dramatic contrast to choose that catalan people will just have to deal with now another thing as the splits and police forces that we witnessed yesterday

constant pretty nice and sound areas were even pretax seeing the citizens. from national guard and there was standing arm in arm in defending the population from police forces now which seen other videos in other areas where angry crowds started to throw rocks at pretties officers and as a result. of pretties officers were injured so again we've seen a lot of unhappy a lot of discontent people saying that they were deprived of their fundamental human right to vote. i don't know i. don't think so i think because they are not afraid of the well i think that there is no to. the violence of the. responsibility of the bullets might taint the safety of the people and their key i think. they are not

a low enough to boats. it's incredible it's really what this is it is in europe does europe. we expect to hear more reaction coming from different sources now we expect to hear something from the e.u. from local authorities here in castle on and of course from the region what happened in. this region on sunday but on tuesday we do know that forty unions and associations in catalonia have already called for a region wide strike against what happened here in this region against the against the war it said the violence that was used to prevent the referendum on independence from happening. in a question about life in barcelona thank you. now at the way civil guard officers trying to disperse the crowds well certainly has raised concerns in the pictures we'll show you here there are various pictures of people holding up as you can see

here various types of rubber bullets used to control the crowd and protesters in iran for example in northeastern catalonia well they also faced off against office . demonstrators having their hands up as a sign of nonviolence but police apparently are just started hitting them with batons and other videos also spotted i'll cry a warning you might find the following images distressing the following video circulating online appears to show one of the officers trying to remove a woman and twisting her wrist in the process she claims that her fingers were broken intentionally. the. policeman told the spanish police. i mean. there was. violence against specific people that they didn't even full work they were just torn on the floor this. hey various be really scandalous but if the prime minister

is. giving so much respect to disbelieve it is because they want to touch him they wanted them to to to act like they did so that's what they will do to show to humiliate people here and show to spend this elector's photos that are really very much. in this humiliation of elimination meantime top officials have largely remained silent previously they stressed that the issue is an internal one for spain. from the european partnership for independence says that what happened in catalonia is an affront to european about whose old democrats and europe should to stand up and say god is just not acceptable when they are going to see the images of own people families being

hit by the police just because upon referendum. will be shaken out because he goes completely against any fundamental you are beyond our values had no we all or not so some shy or simply can't some chinese says saying that finance should stall i cede the issue to the issue to say much more than five minutes have to stop we know that back down this morning to two this morning mistake here that these are accidents. by. sea. and past the hour here in moscow donald trump has downplayed recent remarks by his secretary of state who called for a diplomatic solution to the north. crisis the u.s.

president saying the negotiations with pyongyang are a waste of time. jacqueline fuko pics of the story. for two months the world has been watching the escalating tensions on the korean peninsula and while some in the trumpet ministration continue to strive for a diplomatic solution the president himself sees those efforts as useless. i told rex tillerson our wonderful secretary of state that he's wasting his time trying to negotiate with little rocket man so term thinks negotiating with north korea is a waste of time honestly adding that the u.s. will do what has to be done the u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson was in china talking with top diplomats there and trying to find ways to ease the nuclear tensions i think the whole situation's a bit overheated rights now i think everyone would like for it's a calm down obviously it would help if north korea would stop firing of missiles that have come things down a little but it seemingly impossible for things to calm down with trump lashing out

and insulting north korea and almost every chance he gets we are totally prepared for the second option totally destroying north korea that's called the military option by their theory a military option like the world has never seen devastating. deficit devastating never see the rocket man mad man he's on a suicide mission for himself rocket man shooting rockets all over the place suicide mission for him so he had been very aggressive should have been handled a long time that's called the military option by theory it will be handled we handle everything over the weekend u.s. trolls were again carried out in the south china sea and all that is within washington's rights to conduct those drills many have called for them to be paused for the time being at least given how they currently provoke p.r. netting but despite terms insults and international disapproval of his handling of

the situation some in washington still speak highly of his diplomatic skills i think to pick the president is an effective communicator i think people know exactly where he stands we have had a good deal of success in pushing forward with our diplomacy campaign that hasn't changed one thing that definitely hasn't changed is the deadlock in the north korean crisis and the world's left are waiting to see what exactly trump leaves has to be done. we spoke to george mouli our global policy expert from london metropolitan university he thinks that trump until listen are actually playing a version of both sides well i think trump is doing the familiar good cop bad cop routine so to listen he's playing the good cop he's negotiating trying to work something else and then trump is doing leaves a bad call it's a familiar double leg i mean it's pretty which is he's laying it on the line to the john yang hey you better do the deal with to listen. because otherwise you know i

might get fed up with it and i'll do something really terrible it's certainly a great risk i mean this is this is brinkmanship and brinkmanship is always very dangerous you know we've had brinkmanship before we had the you know cuban missile crisis where. power is back down to the last minute you never know with with these things it's hard to know exactly what military options the united states has up its sleeve you know if korea is in an awkward position are they relieved willing to go the distance of the really willing to risk. total annihilation and then and therefore the complete annihilation of their regime so that's why i think going yang's hand isn't really that strong but you know what though i mean this. school this is dangerous stuff it could easily get out of hand not just on a quarter past the hour here in moscow we understand that there is reportedly an active shooter situation underway at a las vegas casino we understand it's mandalay bay we're also hearing multiple

injuries reported we'll give you the latest in just a moment. thank you for new to the game this is how it works now the economy is built around corporations corporations run washington washington controls the media the media control over the voters elected businessman to run this country business equals power you must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. what politicians do something anything. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and you. want to be. to going to be for

us this is what before three in the morning can people get. interested always in the water. they should. be joining us here on r.t. international i understand police right now responding to a reported active shooting in las vegas near mandalay bay casino in the united states this is according to the official twitter feed and there are believed to be multiple casualties with some suggesting that up to twenty bodies can be seen at the scene of the shooting apparently of radios or most of the aftermath of the reported incident where people are seeing fleeing from the building here at all of

the international we will bring you all the latest the very moment we get. it now turning our attention to france islamic state claims it was behind a knife attack that killed two women at mar ses main train station the perpetrator was shot dead by security services minutes later. we heard women screaming outside then running in people didn't know what was going on. were taken out of the train and then evacuated.

president emanuel condemned what he called the barbaric act and praised the work of the soldiers who ultimately eliminated the attacker the soldier was a part of operation sentinel which was launched after the terror attack on the magazine's offices in early twenty fifteen and since then the country has been under a state of emergency former british intelligence officer believes the operation has improved response times but more must be done. well i think we're seeing a much faster reaction time from the police and security forces in all countries across europe i mean particularly in london as well with the attacks that happened in a few months ago that the reaction times much faster to stop further deaths but of course you can't stop the initial attacks themselves because these tend to be lone wolfs they tend to already be on the radar of the police or the security services but it seems that they're drowning in information because of the dragnet surveillance infrastructure they now have in place so the not targeting

investigating and stopping potential terroristic type attacks and that is an ongoing problem i said this many times but they don't seem to learn from that and perhaps it's very difficult to try and tackle it well. the syrian army backed by russian air power is making a last push to repel the remaining terrorists out of the largely liberated city of the other as zoar a citizens there have had to endure three years of siege by islamic state and artie's and what our guys do you have as there has been listening to local stories . in their resort you'll find little unmarked by war every crater has its own tragic story and i think it exploded right here a neighbor was sitting here holding us two year old nephew another man was there and my son isa was right here trad no hit him in the back in the waist and the legs a piece one did use long's he still suffers pain from it isa has now survived

isis shells twice he well remembers his last brush with death and how his sister found him. i said judy judy my back hurts but she said only my legs were hit when they picked me up they so blood flowing down my back my sister started screaming and hitting herself. the first time he was nearly killed by an isis shell he was just ten months old then shrapnel peppered the baby isa slicing off a toe in all he has eleven scars and a lump of jagged metal in his lungs that could still eventually kill him but at least he made it the other two year old boy at the scene wasn't so lucky hell lasted for three years it left

a mark on everyone. the word tragedy does not begin to describe what happened in there is or any door you knock on any family you talk to tell you of their loss and their suffering truly the one thing that unites this city is that everyone has a horrific story there was no place in daters or where the population could find sanctuary there is no place that the battle left untouched dust craters bullet holes and devastation and everywhere entire districts of the city are in ruins entire generations traumatized entire generations lost. during the battle with isis i was shot just above my jaw the bullet is still there my left eye was destroyed and i have ten percent vision in my right eye. the

reality of war i dels two were others were also in the army defending their as order they were literally protecting their family against isis he is the only one left alive there is hope for abdel he could yet have his vision partially restored but these families loss is neither unique nor the worst. i think i was a moment once you lose one or three sons many families gave more than me in my office there was a man who lost five sons and a daughter this is what war is it consumes and destroys everything. for many the worst is over the breaking of the siege of datas or heralded a new beginning yet others in areas still being liberated it's just the start. aside from all the paid sense of loss and it has or has

also shame shame what woman and young girls are sold as thirteen and fourteen will force to do in order to feed themselves and their families when you're hungry you'll do anything but no one will talk about it on camera sense of shame he runs deep the things people forced to do when they city psychological scars left behind will take decades to heal more i guess the team from there is on syria. breaking news story for you this. twitter feed they're all believed to be multiple casualties with.

with social networks. will have to pay. fifty million euros that's how much the german government can find the big social media giants that don't remove illegal racist or slanderous comments and posts from their sites within twenty four hours the new law taking effect was written during an uptick in racist anti refugee online postings following the arrival of

more than a million people into germany between twenty fifteen and twenty sixteen when it was announced. that it would be coming into full force or privacy activists were out to show that they were less than happy to do it at the controversial points of the law could see its heights a regulation potentially on things which are not even liable to legal prosecution if this happens internet providers will likely be cautious and potentially what we consider freedom of communication dissenting voices were on the rise in germany in just the last week the anti immigration alternative for germany party took a big bite out of bass in the federal elections. i mean according to the current situation last around one point three million voters to the f.t.p. and one million to the f.t. considering the air of these voters it is our duty to win them back through the

good policies and solutions to problems i call mass germany's justice minister called out one of social media's biggest names directly saying they shouldn't have to be forced to do more. i think that this is in the interest of facebook nobody can have an interest in being known as a medium which is being used in an extra way by far right extremists to overwhelm the world with ideological waste companies will have to report back on how they're doing every six months. so let's have a look at how the big three stacked up before they came into place well according to the new york times over a one month period facebook removed way less than half of all online hate speech within twenty four hours for twitter an embarrassing one percent for them were far and away the best performers if you chub removing ninety percent of flags content

within one day it goes without saying that racist and bigoted posts need to be taken down but who is deciding what we should and shouldn't be seeing is a cause for concern for many the obligations placed upon private companies to regulate and take down content raises concern with respect to freedom of expression this isn't just a german issue posts that a blocked or removed here will also be blocked or removed all over the world but this new law with its hefty fines gives the german government a weapon against online hate with the power to put companies don't. put the shoe to be a lot of focus into how it's used and against whom. it is all too international if you were reminded now of our breaking news story police are right now responding to a reported active shooter in las vegas you know the very well known. this is all

according to their official twitter feed there are believed to be multiple fatalities with some suggesting that up to twenty bodies are at the scene of the shooting after this video has emerged of the aftermath of the reported incident by people. in the building right here on r.g.p. international we will keep on this story and give you the breaking news every moment we get it is. for the meantime though here on r.t. international we are back in just a moment. about your sudden passing i've only just learned you worry yourself and taken your last wrong turn. you're out caught up to us we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry i could so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on each breath

. but then my feeling started to change you talked about war like it was again still some are fond of you those that didn't like to question our ark and i secretly promised to never be like it said one does not leave a funeral the same as one enters the mind it's consumed with death this one quite different i speak to you now because there are no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker. would need to make this manufacture consent to step into public wealth. when the ruling classes and project over themselves. in the primary go round lifts only the one person.
