thanks for joining us on our international. madrid's decision to impose direct rule on catalonia in the wake of the region's independence vote has led to yet more protests across. the senate is expected to approve the sacking of the leadership on friday and while there will not be dissolved it will be stripped of its capacity to elect a president. reports from. walk alone or staying together at the kaplan people had a chance to respond we saw those fully supporting independence and also those who want to be caught but part of spain. probably independence leaders sounded better in the beginning than the tone change
5:02 am
. the people of get along won the right to become an independent state. report him but we propose that parliament suspends the proclamation of a dependence and practically deciding the future of a nation is not a crime so here is what we have the region is stuck in limbo while the cattle a government has been and for weeks and the jury took an unprecedented step and asked the national senate to depose that we. now have a castle and the president called it the worst attack since franco's dictatorship if you reward over with both attackers and the founders using similar arguments on each other. in a greatly irresponsible act christ all boundaries by announcing and in fact a coup d'etat to oust a democratically elected government if this is a there is a coup thoughtful he's the one that have been you know followed by. mr bush
5:03 am
and his government but. we're now applying five five because no government a tool in a democratic country can accept that the law will be ignored or violated or changed yet but what the spanish government illegally proclaimed itself the representative of the catalans kaplan a story to still think they could win local media speculation that the president could even officially proclaim independence this week but it seems ordinary catalans are the ones on the losing side. of independence was declared in a very messy way so i'm not surprised by. it's happening this is the most we're a bit lost is the first time we found ourselves in such a situation there are people here doing them straight week after week and they don't talk about the only talk about some people that is doing other demonstrations but not have the cuts and the majority of the spanish senate still house to approve

5:06 am
a part of france or china tomorrow for instance if we chose to do so but we won't do it we want to remain a part of catalonia and spain. people are really afraid especially for the economy the economy of their own valley is a very different show because it is entirely dependent on tourism therefore and from that we can see it makes people really afraid. so hot on the heels of catalonia as referendum two major italian regions overwhelmingly voted for greater autonomy on sunday here's what the leaders of the body and vent of so said the hoping for. linkup we want to overcome the inability of europe just solve problems and face up to them by offering a new dimension we want to more united stronger europe one that takes into account the specifics of territories this is what can be simply called the europe of regions a page of history will be written in any case vinnitsa will be the same as before

voice for our interests in brussels and ensures that because we have to fight for progs interests first brussels interest second understood dammit does he have any relatives with the last dame trump even if not mr bob as well deserves check donald trump title given by the media despite already being part of the system as finance minister for a while no way this guy has kept up the image of being beyond the system i was looking for two years twenty hours of day before the election i met thirty thousand people i don't need to fill my ego my ego is really full mr bobbish and his billions make him the second richest man in this country journalists call him a media mogul but his business toys vary from farms to chemical plants no golf courses though is younger than trump he's got time to catch up oh wait he's focused on the new job with confidence from the state like a business we went home and i'm like politicians have to understand i've been
5:14 am
a businessman but i have good common sense in that business and i've told you and ray bobbish is not a fan of migrants or the way brussels deals with them for now there is no place for migrants in europe we will soon begin the construction of a great great wall along our southern border be dead and it is obvious there is no check donald trump without rumors of him being a kremlin favorite mr bobbish has been trying to throw that off he. and wrote an open letter to the washington post maybe thanks to it we won't hear the media go on about russia helping their man when the check polls maybe we spoke to political analyst adam gary about the new czech leader's similarities to donald trump. in some ways and certainly in the superficial ways he takes those boxes he's

a billionaire he's subject to control the sea levels and blunt statements in other ways he's very unlike donald trump he's got many more years of big speech in government then trump will be in a leadership position he is someone who is officially part of the establishment key thing with this election is to realize that all of the policies that really won the top spots with the exception of the party that came in second the the conservatives the center right party everyone is really one of the new polities that so what this election represents is very much trump like in the sense that it's a rejection of everything old and embrace of many things new. it is a quarter past the hour here in the russian capital poor translation software could land you in a heap of trouble and even get you linked to a list of terrorists we'll explain why after the break.

for joining us here were naughty international today you may think it's only the authorities that can collect all postal data and compiled terrorist watch lists in the case of one activist and. there are also many other entities actively doing this sometimes causing very real problems for everyday people. now imagine that suddenly your bank account is closed and you cannot pay your bills and then it's also the mystery not knowing why or what's wrong with me why why are they closing down my account and not only my personal accounts my family accounts and my
5:18 am
business accounts all of them were closed or the activist you just saw me was mistakenly designated as a terrorist by the database world check run by thomson reuters it's a subscription only service providing various dossiers on various individuals databases popular with banks as well as the u.k. police and others are meant to mean he told us he was completely shocked when he learned he had been placed on a list of terrorists who through other distress because this is not even the united nations is not a government and living and their democracy life is written you don't expect something like this to happen if you are not a criminal and if there is nothing against you legally then this should not be you should you should not be proscribed you should not be alienated or excluded and the united essential services after the issue can publish that thomson reuters apologized to the activist and compensated his expenses however this is not an
5:19 am
isolated case on another occasion the company had to issue an apology for a similar mistake involving a u.k. based radio presenter that of my judith now was and there are now concerns such data collecting and blacklisting could become more entrenched thanks to an managements to the data protection act being discussed in parliament top u.k. officials and even her majesty the queen have been singing the praises of the legislation. the new law will ensure that the united kingdom retains its wealth an arse regime protecting personal data including high standards of data protection and human rights innovation and ensure we can remain confident. the new legislation will retain exemptions from the existing data protection act effectively allowing journalists banks and other of entities to collect data without people's consent that means databases like reuters world check won't have to even inform you that they regard you as
5:20 am
a criminal no matter who else they share this information with global policy expert george says the lack of control over the handling of personal data leaves ordinary people in a very vulnerable position. it is completely unacceptable that organizations can collect all manner of very personal data and use them maliciously against. individuals and thereby damage their reputations damage their careers even damage their livelihood how are we able to control. what corporations are doing how are we able to ensure that individuals have some means of recourse against the use of data against them i don't see that within this legislation there is adequate protection for individuals. you know giving them some
5:21 am
kind of recourse to challenge this the malicious use of such data. israeli police have arrested a palestinian man for his post on facebook hala when you posted a picture of himself at work wishing a good morning to his friends after facebook incorrectly translated the post it appeared as attack and so the israeli police got quickly involved officers thought he was threatening to carry out an attack it was released those shortly thereafter when it all turned out to be a big misunderstanding and we discussed this with haaretz newspaper journalist gideon levy. it has nothing to do not only was morally t. but also we. legal it's even legal it's not only immoral it was illegal we just have to mention that he was released of the few hours so seeing didn't
5:22 am
develop too far but it is a baby laugh and it's just an indication to the it's you know are the palestinians without any respect to none of their basic rights. this is not the first time a palestinian is in trouble over the law with remarks made online one activists wrote a facebook post mocking anti israel arsonists but the hash tag sarcasm posted next to it but it's still got arrested by israeli police authorities released him after admitting they hadn't understood the stock as other cases though are less clear cut a nineteen year old who is charged with inciting violence for posts praising the palestinian uprising against israel and the palestinian poet has been under house arrest since twenty fifteen for sharing a video of her reading a poem called resist my people resist them she is awaiting
5:23 am
a verdict which could get her in prison for up to eight years gideon levy again says that palestinians in general are targeted for their political activity as a party c.d.'s and she went through all these only for poor and she wrote quietly innocent boy may can tell you and even if it's not that innocent poor him i mean poor me is only a poor there are hundreds of palestinians why would we call world israel is it really strange of the tension which is being arrested the result a trial which doesn't exist in a democracy hundreds of them including some members of parliament part of the only because of the poor. it's a collectivity so they put it to good preserve us that's the dark side though. it is all to international thanks for sharing it monday with us here on the program we . often know.

politics the divisions between members coming to the forefront. crisis. multi-speed integration division strix. leader's speech is. the european project. and it's really great to have you on our program today welcome thank you so we're going to talk about what's going on in europe right now. do you think europe is at risk of being split into a core center and because you know i hear french president saying that actually needs different speech for those who want to move forward and for those who want to stay behind. i would be much more concerned maybe two years ago but now all of the european countries are growing spain portugal ireland cyprus are out of the
5:28 am
monitoring become newsman of the year same european stability mechanism only greece is still. working in this context but i'm sure in spring time greece results will come out of these problems and greece economies are also the situation economically is now much better what we see today is kind of a political challenge to the decision of the british electorate one year ago to vote with a slight majority in favor of of exit of leaving the european union this is something which concerns us and this is of course something which will be an enormous problem for the brits themselves but those who for europe do you support the idea of two speed europe to support what. is proposing right now that those who want to move faster should move faster and have different type of economic zone and then those who want to stay where they are you know then stay in
5:29 am
a different kind of this is the present situation of the treaties that you came up for more cooperation or you can be a normal member and i'm sure that in some areas there will be much more engagement for instance when you need to produce he or indeed you do co-operation to could be much more either we do it would to get go or some moving faster did the race but i think if some are really trying to go ahead i'm sure most of the countries will forward so the idea of macro is not so much to divided to split europe but to give a wake up call to those who are a little bit more reluctant and that they and most of the member states will come along. i want to hear your opinion on what the polish president under. said recently actually said that e.u. is turning into a class society with some countries becoming second class members.
