trying to communications and sooner or later these two are going to mean the middle and they're going to collide we need to understand yes i am all for being able to communicate freely that's wonderful but we also have to understand that freedom is not free and as we look at the global community we have to embrace our responsibility to make sure that that right doesn't go away and isn't garnered more by those nefarious type people than they really need to have we need to make sure that we monitor closely not to completely suffocate communication at all but to monitor appropriately because that's the channel that cyber criminals are using and they're taking they're using social media the use the internet communicating freely is going to have to have some kind of parameters if we're going to win this war no question steve at the moment independent countries can control access to websites within their borders already they have the power and people circum navigated using v.p.n.
5:01 pm
will anything change if we're now talking about national webs as opposed to global . well i think this is a debate that's been going on ever since the internet came into being just how you try and regulate across borders and we're dealing with a number different populations a number of different legal systems and coming together and coming your way of ways to make it all mesh together in the same way is going to be extremely difficult but increasingly i think it's just an example of the communications medium that is now start to get to grips both on the platform perspective from a user perspective with the fact that what happens online has very real offline consequences so certainly we like to see more regulation what form that will take i think remains to be seen. paula do you think we're going to see countries working together now in the battle against cyber crime i'm sorry do you think we'll see countries cooperating working together in the fight against cyber criminals or is it really now every country for itself.
5:02 pm
no no i think they're absolutely must be a public private partnership as we move forward and again when we talk locally we need to understand that nefarious type individuals are not limited to one country every country has them and we can't stereotype one country against another chance for it's everyone it's a global issue it's a global concern private sector major corporations and governments need to work together to make sure that we are putting up the proper hedge around our private and personal and corporate and proprietary communications so that where art front ends where preemptively monitoring things or watching out for vulnerabilities we're not reacting to them we have a variety of different situations that we're dealing with today in our community a variety and just the thought of waiting and taking one dimensional approaches to that that's frightening multidimensional approach to this and we have
5:03 pm
a better shot at steve a lot of people would say that one of the great beauties of the internet was the anonymity you get from it love people say that's also one of the biggest perils that comes with the internet is changing that we've seen facebook twitter. the major organizations working alongside for example the u.s. government helping to gather information on the uses in the future will internet anonymity basing of the past. well i think we've already seen this kind of debate happen in the u.k. and certainly the wider international basis if you try hard of internet anonymity although paul may disagree is quite easy to get around and quite easy to get to hew might be behind a particular malicious post but just going back to the phrase a public private partnership i think that's really relevant here in that as much as we can talk about regulation there's also got to be a huge amount of education with members of the public as to what to watch out for to develop good a filter think about who they assign credibility to and sort of see the signs of
5:04 pm
this kind of thing themselves working in partnership maybe with law enforcement with why the regulators so that there really isn't one set multi-dimensional approach to combating this gentlemen appreciate your time so we had a few problems with that with the sound there but appreciate your thoughts my guest cyber security expert paul violence and lawyer and partner in beer steve. in other news today the turkish defense minister has announced his country has launched a military operation in syria's curious controlled african region starting with cross border shelling of his police leer as more of how events unfolded we are hearing from the turkish defense minister that a de facto turkish military operation has begun across its border now this is been corroborated by the syrian kurds the white p.g.d. who say that since those day night some seventy shells have been fired by the turkish military on to their villages now it's one of the only a statement by the turkish president and the one in which he said that the united states had admitted to establishing
5:05 pm
a terrorist army on the turkish syrian border any chord on the united states to deal with that terror at its infrastructure and these comments by the turkish president so infuriated could see living in the afan region that earlier they took to the streets also they were protesting against what we see happening slowly on the ground which is turkish tanks needing to little blue water this is what citizens of africa have to say. right now our freedom will be the ones graveyard today hundreds of thousands are protesting to tell him that the people of our friend will never leave. the international community should send a message to turkey telling them to stop have bought the white b.g. and stand so we can defend ourselves. well this comes after the statement that the coalition forces were working closely with the syrian democratic forces to establish and train a new syrian border security force but what we've seen happening is the american
5:06 pm
administration backpedaling now on plans to establish such a border force essentially after it created such a huge and furious backlash from america's close ally turkey the u.s. secretary of state rex tillerson has said that the entire issue has been mis portrayed and mistress. the u.s. state department has this to say is he saying that when the pentagon says we're going to try to come up with a force of thirty thousand people that that's long or is he just disputing i would have i would have to refer you to the department of defense on that i think they were clear in the statement that they put out so let me just refer you to them on that. but i'm asking about comments yesterday we said there's no for the security forces and that's not what it is like i have to refer you to the turkish government about what they became so concerned about and the fact that somebody misspoke and i'm not going to name any names and neither is the secretary but somebody clearly just misstated their policy it's as simple as that the situation is extremely tense
5:07 pm
on the ground and it has the possibility of igniting into something much bigger so i think what it does show us is that words have the potential to ignite a potential war. situation around syria was one of the issues the russian foreign minister addressed during a media conference following the united nations security council meeting in new york on t. course won't kill him or if it was. going to be on the law and we saw you in action just a few minutes ago you got to us to the question what did he have to say. well i'm abstracting to the press says survey lab rob was talking to the media at the united nations in the briefing room as he was speaking to the media i got the opportunity to ask him a question i asked sir again lab rob about the fact that american leaders have repeatedly said that their forces are only in syria for the purpose of defeating the i still terrorists yet now they have been made the noise and said to the effect
5:08 pm
that if the forces of the united states are withdrawn from syria he made the point it's been said by u.s. leaders that if the forces are withdrawn from syria this with them strengthen the syrian government so i asked him how he deals essentially with these mixed messages from. the leaders of the united states from his american colleagues in the international community are this was his response to my question. but this incoherence and the lack of a principled. to prince of principle your commitment to what we negotiate is very typical for the current american diplomacy including the instances the reasons of american staying in syria and the reasons for the u.s. led coalition's actions fracs to listen has said many times that the only goal the only reason is to defeat i so it's now they have now even more far reaching
5:09 pm
plans and will have to keep that in mind and trying to find ways that would prevent them from undercutting this seventy of the syrian state. now his response to me fit into an overall theme of the press conference which was the fact that there was a need to stabilize the world and stop the spread of terrorism and bring regions of the world that are unstable into a more stable state of being many thanks our correspondent live in new york keli bachmann. thank you guys for tuning in europe today join me for the latest headlines and often our. greetings and salutation. well well well donald trump's fake news awards are finally here hawk watchers and we here at r.t. walked away with zero. not even
5:10 pm
a nomination as far as i can tell donald c n n in washington post always cleaning up at those fake news awards you know c.n.n. is like the the meryl streep of fake news thankfully we get real news here but moving on from fake news to very very very important and real news news that actually matters one story that should be making headlines unstacking news feeds a hell of a lot more than the kids in the sandbox temper tantrums between the mainstream news media and president trump is the powerful sobering and courageous testimonies in the sentencing of child molester and former usa gymnastics national team doctor later in the star starting this week and going into the next more than one hundred women have volunteered to take the stand in the courtroom and looking to star in the eye and tell their stories of his abuse including seven national team jim this including a lympics star's gabby douglas alley race mckayla maroney and four time two
5:11 pm
thousand and sixteen gold medalist simone bias the twenty year old baila stated for far too long i've asked myself was i too naive was it my fault i now i now know the answer to those questions no no it was not my fault no i will not and should not carry the guilt that belongs to larry intissar the usa gee and others like jerry sandusky of penn state or hedge fund billionaire jeffrey epstein predators like most are forced us all to rethink just where our priorities lie when we allow sacred institutions and powerful individuals to insulate and protect the monsters among us and push blame on the victims. which is why we must be diligent and always be watching the hallmarks of the new. one the older you get the better like the trail with this would be analyzed to get to the bottom if
5:12 pm
you like but it looks like you're not i got. to. leave the club. loaded with all the watching the harks i am tired robot and on top of the wallace. tyrrell here we are i really haven't seen this covered in the mainstream media as much as i would have expected to i know and i can't find a really good. reason for that it's odd isn't it you know i mean you see these stories covered they'll get the headlines they'll get the play but you would expect them to be covered as much as you know what donald trump tweet you'd expect them to be covered as much as like a kobe bryant you know rape trial from baghdad colorado all the way to your wall to
5:13 pm
wall o.j. simpson style this is big huge news that goes beyond just sports right and yet you don't see this cover you don't see this you know wall to wall every day wow this is the latest of what's happening and i think because it really it i think it because it hits home and it scares people that institutions can can just turn a blind eye to this whether knowingly or not although i think you really shouldn't be surprised at this point that that these kinds of things go on and it's not as if nasir was some kind of angel as if this is the only thing it and ron i mean. as you said there's not just one charge not just two charges these than even just this case this man away for a very long he's already been sentenced to sixty years in jail on federal child pornography charges you know this round of sentencing where these hundreds so women are getting up to stand up to look him in the eye and tell them you know their story of what happened what he did to them this is for guilty pleas multiple counts
5:14 pm
of sexual assault i mean they're estimating could be anywhere another forty mother sixty years added on to his already sick i mean this guy's going away for a long time which i'm happy to see because a lot of times in these cases you see the child you know the pedophilia the child predator go away for maybe like ten years twenty tops sometimes and it breaks my heart when i see things like that i mean jeffrey epstein so what a year fairly you know it's absolutely ridiculous. to me the biggest most important question of news stories like these is should any culpability fall on the major institutions in this case usa gymnastics or powerful individuals who kind of look the other way. when they are when they are bald with or to be employing structural predators like master absolutely absolutely you don't get a free pass he was there long enough for you to know it's the same thing that was in the penn state then to pretend as if you had no idea i mean there is
5:15 pm
a huge difference between did people know that harvey weinstein was a criminal rapist not a lot of people didn't they just thought he was a scumbag right and that he was you know about a person they didn't know what they didn't have that information so most of the people were covering it up in this situation there are multiple people at multiple levels and the thing that bothers me is that i've seen this happen. it when i was school age an incident something like this where it was a trainer but it was for the men a men's team and i watched that get covered up so nefariously from the day even like got out and stories and that part that really hurts because that's what hurts that them sets what hurts fixing these issues one of the two time olympic gold medals mckayla maroney she's known for being the one who made that face now i want to add when she was on the stand and now i think maybe that's because she saw him stand.
