good evening midnight here in moscow in fact my name is neil harvey you're watching r.t. international. president threatened to cut aid to un members who vote for a resolution that condemns the u.s. decision recognizing jerusalem as the capital of israel they take hundreds of lives and even billions of dollars and then they vote against us when we're watching those votes let him vote against us will serve now we've heard these threats from donald trump and we've also heard threats from nikki haley according to her twitter she will be quote taking names at the upcoming vote in the united nations general assembly there's also a document that's been released in the authenticity of this document is not yet been confirmed but it appears that the usa is threatening to cut off the aid of countries that vote against the united states at the upcoming general assembly vote

now this is going to be a non-binding vote now this comes just a few days after we saw some drama at the united nations security council resolution was put forward by egypt condemning the recent move of the united states recognizing jerusalem as israel's capital and in response to that we saw it fourteen to one with every other member of the u.n. security council voting against the resolution but the usa stepping in to veto it this is some of what occurred at the u.n. security council of jerusalem as the future of. the should be determined through a negotiated settlement between the israelis and the palestinians and a decision and actions which purport to alter the current term status of jerusalem have no legal effect any unilateral actions increase the reach critical of you because we support the just cause of restoring that it is from a national right to the palestinian people now the upcoming vote at the united

nations general assembly is along similar lines the resolution criticizes the recent move by the united states to recognize jerusalem as israel's capital so as we see these threats from tromping these threats from nikki haley this talk of taking names this document claiming that dollar. i will be taking it personally the way countries vote we're forced to ask ourselves if u.s. leaders are really acting diplomatically or if they are being reduced to rather threatening behavior in response to the upcoming vote in the general assembly here at the headquarters in new york to a key has hit back at what it calls threats from washington over the un vote and called on its nato ally to change course. as the new day of rage was declared by palestinians and a fresh wave of protests the city of bethlehem. with

. mass demonstrations are also expected in the west bank city of ramallah where crowds have already been munching the violence has been reported yet he's been if i'm not sure how small. this is another day of rage here in the west bank city of ramallah the capital of palestinian authority there have been many days like this following the one tribe's controversial decision to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel the palestinians as you know consider the eastern part of the holy sea to be the territory and of course they have been encouraged dramatically by. announcements they have been violent protests all over the world among palestinians and those who sympathize with that and of course here in palestinian authority we hear that there are hundreds of protesters participating in today's the band again. how.

this officer is talking to journalists saying that we have to have to move if this idea is it dangerous to stay here ok thank you i didn't. and you can follow maria on twitter for her updates from ramallah. ten times more civilians may have been killed by the u.s. led coalition in the liberation of mosul than was reported previously that's according to new research conducted by the associated press the news agency obtained data from iraqi morgues as well as from nongovernmental organizations it added up to eleven thousand civilians who may have been killed in the nine month operation with nearly a third of those dying at the hands of coalition air raids coalition itself as that knowledge just four percent of a piece tall. we

spoke to mohammed a u.n. coordinator with the salaam for democracy and human rights group he warned high civilian casualties are inevitable as the coalition made indiscriminate use of weapons in densely populated civilian areas. the last report by the un in a has addressed six thousand they were killed by a terrorist group by isis there let alone by the numbers by the coalition groups especially against civilians because as you stand most of the terrorist groups who were hiding within the civilians houses or to consider. not

doubt. their weapons are being used by the coalition especially by the us army is does not discriminate between civilians or terrorist or by civilians or the isis because they used. a number of weapons that does not. such a terrorist as you stand this is it a terrorist groups not an army where they clearly indicate the targets of the weapon they were used by the us usually is used on a wide areas and also if you use if you look at the morsel as a city is very concerned very populated area is not an open space where you can target easy terrorist groups so they were targeting houses they were targeting. small rooms that were tokens more neighborhoods this again the question is raised again why does not as a thing. independence and instigation by the un to look into

how the operation has been handled. the dimia putin has stressed the security services to create a safer barrier against foreign interference in the country society and politics his comments come ahead of next year's presidential election with details this. plot of our program in his speech was talking to those who work in intelligence and security this wednesday is a professional hard for these people in russia in fact the russian security service is marking. exactly one century of its existence so on this special occasion mr putin did something he doesn't affan the president directly accused foreign intelligence of interfering or meddling in russia's own affairs not that i've rarely heard words interference or meddling from others but back to mr approach but

you should know that there is a great responsibility on the intelligence services to put up a barrier against external meddling in our social and political life and to counteract the work of foreign security agencies which and it's no secret are doing all they can to ramp up their activities in russia it's no secret that throughout the last couple of years whenever and wherever there was an election or a major referendum eventually you'd hear some sort of news about investigations into alleged russian meddling or interference some sort of way of trying to pull the strings but in this case a lot of our prudent is talking about possible similar attempts and at russia where the presidential campaign just kicked off a couple of days ago. facebook has been accused of abusing its monopoly in germany and of inappropriate collection of user data into oliver explains well this all comes out of

a statement from the wonderfully named federal cartel office there the main competition watchdog here in germany they've slammed facebook saying that its users have no idea and have given no consent for the levels of data from them which is being tainted by the social network and that is then being used to target ads that directly on them we're mostly concerned about the collection of data outside facebook's social network and the merging of this data into uses facebook accounts we're not convinced that use this have given their effective consent to facebook's data tracking. and merging of data into their facebook account well it also comes facebook's been accused of being overly intrusive after introducing new facial recognition software that can recognize a person's face even if they haven't been tagged in a picture it's worth noting this investigation is ongoing here in germany by the competition watchdog they say they are looking into how data is obtained but

they're more looking into the fact that facebook seems to sit by and what should observe our lives and interests and then gets information that way for facebook's part they say that the federal cartel office have misrepresented them by saying that they dominate the social media remit here in germany as far as facebook or concerned there are alternatives them and if there wasn't alternatives only then would they be dominating it's put across what we are seeing and what we have seen already is sharing data with a third party here in germany is illegal and it's becoming more and more of an issue and more focus falling on social media outlets not just here in germany but across widely europe if we look over in france that's where what's up with the messaging application is facing a fine from the french authorities that's after they shared their users data with facebook of course if we do remember facebook bought bought out what's up back in

twenty fourteen what we won't expect from this report when it's published in full in the summer is a fine for facebook but what we're hearing from the main competition watchdog here in germany is they're going to tell facebook they need to change the way they go about doing things when it comes to their users personal data. russia will remain banned from the upcoming winter paralympics in south korea the i.p.c. the us the international paralympic committee will make a final decision on team russia in late january but that's just a month before the competition gets underway. it was more his situation. there in london the international paralympic committee today has announced that they're maintaining the suspension of the russian paralympic committee and that they will indeed be announcing their final decision on the future of whether or not the parlin peons from russia are going to be able to compete and in january this leaves the russian athletes really holding their breath until more or less the last minute

to find out whether or not they're going to be able to participate in those games another part of this decision announced today has been that they're going to maintain a measure that was implemented earlier in september that in fort sports russian athletes are going to be able to qualify in events under neutral flag which is quite important and those sports include cross-country skiing alpine skiing snowboarding and the buy off line it has been said that five criteria are still not being met by russia for the russian parliament committee to be reinstated. this comes after the international olympic committee by russia from taking part in the twenty winter games but clean athletes will be allowed to compete under a neutral flag as we heard the final decision about russia's participation in the paralympics that will happen in late january not long before the games begin chris burns from the international paralympic committee doesn't believe this will have a negative effect on team russia but i think this decision by there you see

firstly the sense that. if anything gives them an opportunity for the regime or in their communities to me to reinstate crisis the entire picture if you've got some stuff this is a situation that has been forced upon us the russian paralympic committee was suspended in august and sixteen. fire authority to meet for coffee to keep the ball here is very much in the cost of the russian parliament you can see from the russian dorothy's. our guys are being deprived of their dream some have just one chance some might have another but they've been preparing for the games for them they are a life goal for many guys with disability sport is the only thing they can do and this dream is being taken away. with it but it was always just watching the bit on the power goes need strong support to move this huge pressure from the i.p.c.c.

they're doing very well though i'd like to avoid all those who have legacy of attitudes towards them towards or training camps to see how they train and why they have excellent results this has nothing to do with. earlier artie's daniel hawkins an alan moore sports host on capital f.m. radio joined my colleague kate partridge to discuss the decision of the i.p.c. well there were only three options really available to the i.p.c. in this case which was lifted by an altogether maintain status quo which is what's happened or perhaps go for a third option of allowing athletes of prove their claim to participate and a neutral flag as they're doing already but if you look at some of the statements that have come out from before president phillip craven for example i believe earlier this year is demanding that russia prove not only that their sport is clean but that their nation is clean we can actually take a listen to that now. we care about how the russians. so they got the right policy but sure they are

a clean nation never mind cleaned out they are to be a clean nation i mean you can take that to mean what you will but certainly questions are raised what exactly you mean xylem and some of you know the measures that russia have taken happen quite conference in fighting these allegations of doping in terms of a clean nation this could mean anything by we've got very cheerful weather here in moscow at the moment so it could be that the roads are dirty were just makes no sense whatsoever and i think that mr craven he's been well known to be not a fan of russia so you know if you like clean athletes come from a clean nation if you want sex and that kind of like you know link of your just kind of a leap from one factor of. ten to nation screen one thing i couldn't quite get my head around with this decision is kind of it's a lack of a decision it's a delay they've made a decision in the i.o.c. the i.o.c. say that ok we have a system here now that we think is what they say is a presumption of innocence therefore russians who can prove that they can take part

in the olympics so one of the paralympics you know this is the greatest event for a minute these people's lives and we know in every society people who complete the scores and partly because you know this is one way de can be included in society as mates it's great strides and two weeks ago they had a big switch basically was the biggest ever gathering of people. who were invalids in russia where they came from all over russia to take part in your work work skills in sports as well you know it started in japan though in russia how it's it was the biggest ever gathering globally so russia's be huge strides to get this inclusive and for people with difficulties whether it be educational or physical i know have been told sorry you're not good enough final decision as you say. will be in general you know that's just a few weeks before the actual event itself so that these athletes are neither here nor there do we train to be prepared to support it and we will go under

a neutral flag or what's going to happen and it's affecting athletes really not only russians themselves because i think a lot about the leaks now as i don't rightly mentioned earlier on certain of the burden of proof the level of evidence that's required to prove that one is clean. nuclear option of being stripped of e.u. voting rights is hanging over poland this is after brussels activated article seven for the first ever time in its history it is with a heavy heart that we have decided to initiate article seven one. of the facts. eve us which. i stood before you in july. when i clearly said. that we'd almost reached a situation where we would meet to talk article seventy one situation since then it's not approved but deteriorate it so we have no other option but to do this

today in with this. decision calmly it's about politics not the rule of law. the law was triggered over walsall refusal to scrap authoritarian judicial reform skipping ruling conservatives more control over the courts poland's president has just insisted they won't abandon those plans but the reforms are also under fire at home with thousands of people flooding the streets of the capital in protest last week. there. was. another that i don't know what but when president. do you. think all climate has significant very different comparing to the moment when these

states were accepted so this whole situation will only deepen the political crisis it's clearly a political maneuver against directed against governments on the right in the group of it's a threat to paul want to do czech republic to slovakia to hungry to austria which has elected the prime minister on the right. that's made the lions with the heart right so clearly the european commission is getting weaker and. wrong thing take the wrong decision this will lead to a split within europe that will go much deeper. cryptocurrency bitcoin is a rollercoaster ride over the last week hitting a record twenty thousand dollars a coin at the weekend before sliding back to under seventeen thousand on tuesday i discussed because ups and downs with max kaiser hosted artie's kaiser report and dr

jack brands miss professor of political economy mary's college in california and also author of the new book central bankers the end of their ropes. not going to be the currency of the future because the central banks will start issuing on digital currencies before it strengthens the money supply but it is definitely out of the speculative bubble bitcoins and all the krypton's are a commodity play much like gold in fact there are second a lot of money capital investment out of the gold market and it is a speculative play and i think it's going to go higher but it is a speculative bubble and the key question is will it pose some sort of danger to the financial markets in general and that that's a possibility what's driving the action a big point is people who are looking for a store of value and escaping the u.s. dollar which is the tulip bulb of our era the stock market bond market are the tulip bulbs of our era the to the pub of sixteen thirty was driven by highly

leveraged transactions that's what gave us tulip all many of sixteen thirty because it is the opposite of that margin buying in retail buyers in japan are driving this market it's not the talking nerds in the us and whenever you get extreme margin buying and then that is about all the same and you're going to get a lot of volatility and it's going to collapse no it's not a fall it's a fact most of this distrait is look at now and the japan financial forty has legitimize this and the c b n c c b o a n c m e r legitimizing this and the hedge funds are jumping into this and you're going to get eighty ads and you're going to need three others are one of the things that drive in the stock market right now and passive in the index investing and when you get e.t.f. the coins with the volatility are you're going to get a psychological effect of eighty of collapsing in bed coin and it could spill over to the stock market and bond market e.t.s. that's a contagion channel and that's

a big risk that banks are going to try and derail it or change it into something that they can control because we've had the french and german finance minister is calling for a pay. at the g twenty summit for regulation a bit quiet are they going to try and make it something they can handle they can try but they'll fail because there's no way to stop it it's unstoppable there's nothing they can do to stop the adoption growth acceptance of big oil as a store of value as a currency and as a unit of account that's the history. here has sparked a round with italy after offering to give austrian passports to people in a disputed border region says that the move revives old hostilities justice chancellor insists that it won't damage relations. south to roll a stunning mountainous region on the border between italy and austria with over half a million residents the area was part of the austria hungary an empire before falling

under italian control around a century ago. the region has to official languages italian and german puts the last twenty lim census reveals almost two thirds of german speaking. now the right wing freedom party a member of austria's new ruling coalition is fanning the flames offering austrian passports to south to relieve. the people of your old will be able to apply for or through citizenship from two thousand and eighteen. italy's in shock blasting the proposal as ethnic nationalism a fanciful move crazy idea and shameful for an. ostrich chancellor is trying to ease the route but is it already too late. some in south to rule are extatic. we've always defended that request of the double citizenship because for us it's very important as a link with our austrian model and. last year at the brenner pass border crossing

south to really ins care about to demand dual citizenship r.t.s. locals what they think about the issue. it is nonsense if i want to stay here i will if i want to go to australia i'll go there what is the point of course it was for me this is a positive thing for can all apply for jewel citizenship that's because i'm a german speaker my relatives have been here ever since they belong to australia and the kid they let me know if you ask my opinion i think it doesn't make sense at all what advantages will sell to all men's have with it. but. as long as there's no discrimination i don't see it as a bad thing if it was reserved for people who spoke just one language i wouldn't agree with it. they discussed this proposal to give passports to residents of the italian region with experts from both countries. the move has to go to the business is it to do with you those who deserve some of the grimaces the gave you the be

the liberation leaves the easiest to these or the was to the league disagree with the call to the. most with people already know that he really is a part of the brotherhood is the also citizens of the citizens they are both in the bill of the european union which is the people right in the basket which is very simple so there is no real interest of leaving the value in the citizenship will be the most insidious because this will not change the status of this is the one big problem with that but nobody understands why because it really has the battles chip if you leave if your parents have left italy you can get. from italy also so it does now well do what italy does already promised in the

campaign the freedom party and the freedom party has to show they are changing all string government politics that's worked very see for freedom party after all is a part of austria softer only on the german and lower than softer only ones austrians that's what they will do. the potential future catalan dependence will face a major milestone on thursday when regional elections are held and it's not clear if any pro or anti independence parties will gain a majority elections recalled by the spanish prime minister on october twenty seventh followed a declaration of independence by the catalan parliament the new pup to madrid to dissolve the region's government and impose direct rule under spanish law no polls can be published a week prior to voting however that hasn't stopped one polling company from coming up with its. creative solution. is.
