the one nine hundred fifty s. korean war gathered in canada for separate talks on the current crisis and they agreed that more pressure is the only solution. the pressure will continue. to do i think what you're clicking be not is to send out a very clear message we want to intensify and that pressure this could include cutting off diplomatic ties to his north korea we spoke to human rights lawyer ericsson rockin who says that washington fear is dropping out of the spotlight in the korean crisis president trump somehow believes that this pressure approach is the this is something different than has been applied before which it isn't and in reality he wants to pull back some of the thunder if you will back to washington because you have again the north and south talking i think the u.s. is a little jekyll and hyde with its policies because on one hand is

one step have a resolution wants to have de mille nuclearization wants to have peace and on the other hand pumps up this rhetoric and so the motivations relate to finances they relate to geo political factors of the u.s. power in the region if you will and they relate to trying to ice out china and russia a little bit as a player in this as was evident in vancouver. ok let's head to germany now where the s.p.d. party convention is voted in favor of launching coalition talks with angle of merkel's party and even though the result is what the s.p.d. leader martin shills have been campaigning for it has been anything but an easy ride for him peter all of it joins me now live from berlin think about it all should be happy shouldn't he i mean as i understand this is what he wanted. well he should be happy this is what he wanted but it was heart in mouth time for the

leader of the social democratic party as he gave a one more pleading than inspirational speech to those delegates and party board members that were gathered to vote in there in bonn at the party convention and he got the result he wanted but he did say there was only two possible options it was either a coalition with angola merkel's conservative bloc or it was new elections and he knew which one he preferred. you don't you know you everyone should realize the question is coalition talks for you elections my take on this is very clear i don't think new elections are the right way for us. of the simple reason that martin schulze doesn't want another election is because of how the previous one panned out for his party they lost forty seats they dropped almost below the twenty percent mark when it comes to votes cast for people to represent

a party in the bundestag it really wasn't a good time out for them in september and it's absolutely well no reason to think that that would change if there was to be fresh elections in fact most people would suggest it may be even worse for the social democrats because there has been a number of red lines that were laid down by the party particularly when it comes to things like refugee numbers and as well as social spending that it would seem that if the social democrats are going to form another coalition with angela merkel they're going to have to cross those red lines and that has not gone down well with much of the party particularly the parties youth wing who campaigned valiantly against this grand coalition they said that martin schultz was selling them out that they wanted to have four more years of opposition well they've been defeated when it comes to delegates and when it comes to the party board they've said they want to have the coalition talks but what would that mean what would

a grand coalition do for germany today well what it would mean is that the social democrats wouldn't be the opposition party they wouldn't be the largest opposition party that would go to the other right leaning anti establishment party alternative for germany they would get that slot as the main opposition party and everything that comes with it of course it does come here in germany with the usual role of being the head of the bundestag budget committee that would be new ground for alter . and it of germany. put martin schultz that said in the past that he didn't want the a.f.d. to even get into parliament is to write at them as racist put in his name to try and hang on to power at any cost even the deep division that he sold within his own party he may well be the one that gives alternative for germany that boost up into the world more senior positions of the german parliament many thanks of course from the peter of rings rather from berlin. now we can take a very short break it's

a busy news day though see in a few minutes. something did these really important for us. not to be only a common market. as we say to be a community of then don't adopt this view was of process as if you twitter is so good to power that you must go riots to dominate it why would there be to be unsettled communities yuki's so. in order to overthrow a regime it does take popular discontent and popular mobilization but it also requires actors with in the leadership of the regime who feel that the regime is no

longer serving the national interest you need people in the military or the bureaucracy or both who are willing to see the regime change otherwise they would be able to put down a popular revolt but did not have support at higher level. welcome back drug related crimes are becoming so bad on parts of the paris metro train drivers are reportedly refusing to stop at certain stations on this is all according to a union that represents the metro bus network in the french capital on the shell of davis he went underground to investigate. for most parisians the metro is a staple of life with its winding tunnels and lines that stretch across the city it's often the easiest way to get from a to b.

but down in the underground the gritty underbelly of the capital is being exposed drug related crime and violence has been a long standing issue on purpose as metro but now the unions representing the train drivers say it's inspiring out of control dealers and muses including those taking crack cocaine a new god thing what they've doing. lighting up metro drivers is so fearful of attacks at some stations many are choosing to no longer stop there a survivor more force of i'm not pro quo is very dangerous and it's terrifying if you can range from a simple punch to people using nails knives or. stations like mark's door more and market a year or especially troubled druggies has come here for their daily fix and gangs have taken over for problem of

a more. the problem is very dangerous for both the metro workers and for the commuters it's even more dangerous they are targets of fast i've seen more than one hundred attacks take place within minutes of arriving if mark's door metro station we witnessed what looks like a drug deal the man with his back to the camera has just arrived with a bag in hand he walked the platform stopping and exchanging some packages with people and then he left with his bag empty this seems to be the new normal. there are lots of drug users and i think that with everything that's happening in the match row they should be doing something most of the time the drug users are aggressive and. everyone is afraid for the security of my children are twenty and twenty five. lived there we we we verse of course.

have been attacked just one time because. we had them in the middle of the night is smart for. playing with that problem was the precipice of problem as the security robberies can happen sometimes it's maybe aggression physical aggression sometimes do was a siren man attack another young man. as we travelled through some of the most dangerous stations we saw metro security and police trying to crack down on the problem this exceeded in moving this bunch along but in reality all they've done is move the problem to another stop on to another day charlotte even ski r.t. paris. more than thirty people are feared to have been killed in an overnight siege at a major hotel in the capital kabul that's according to reports citing security

officials authorities or put the death toll at nineteen including a high ranking afghan diplomat fourteen foreign nationals most of them employees of a local line all of the five attackers were killed the taliban has claimed it was behind the assault. i think unfortunately the afghan security forces are just not. up to the standards or there's too much pressure on them and there's not much coordination between nato

forces and the afghan police there are multiple threats there's the taliban there's al qaeda there's ice is there's also has missed it which is also in the government so there are a number of opponents and i think there simply isn't the right intelligence to counter these kind of attacks because they're happening on the regular basis one day it's a civilian target one it's a military target one meets a commercial road or a hotel by today how to counter terrorism in afghanistan you need regional approach and the regional approach means working with iran working with pakistan and working mood russia and the central asian states at the moment the u.s. is not really doing that they have their own strategy and it's not doesn't fit in with the region strategy. over the week twitter started sending abel's to those who quote might have followed tweeted or liked suspected russian propaganda accounts during the u.s. presidential campaign not twitter estimates almost seven hundred thousand users

fall into that category and its message to those it believes may have come into contact with the alleged russian malicious activities the social media platform urges recipients to learn more about. the night shift of the russian propaganda effort we can now get a firsthand account from the person who has received such a letter from twitter no longer is an independent just a former wall street journal chorus correspondent could speak to each other this sounds a slightly surreal experience just take me through what it was like for them to get in touch with the kind of singled out to an extent what was your experience. whoa singled out what is it you say seven hundred thousand of the people which in terms of all try to use this is not a lot well i was expecting it i spy i didn't expect it to happen yesterday but there was talk that facebook was going to do this that they were going to inform

their users that they had apparently inadvertently you know succumbed to russian propaganda so it was a bit jarring when i read it and it's you know if you read it carefully the e-mail says that this is potentially linked to that research agency in st petersburg it's not even firmly linked to russia and yet they make the leap right there that it's propaganda come from russia but the majority of people i would assume and i've heard from number of people who have received the same e-mail. we're not being told anything because they wanted to follow through like or retreat whatever this is that face that twitter says is propaganda because they agree with a lot of it and so it's not news to them which is news to them as of this twitter has taken this step to in a sense actually censor those those ads or those mans that were put on twitter and one thing i think the viewers have to understand about the first amendment many

people raising the first amendment does not apply to private sector in the united states this only to the constitution only says that congress cannot make a law to abridge or stop free speech so what did government has done here is pressured both facebook and twitter. to do the dirty work for them and they were both very reluctant at first if you recall facebook on the cut came up with a few dozen ads suppose we from this internet research company and st petersburg and they were forced really by senator warner warner flew out to facebook headquarters and told them that they had to find more twitter came under the same pressure and this is the result of the government pressure. in this campaign against so-called russian propaganda but as i said the majority of people who received this agreed with the things that they call propaganda and also we don't really know what the content is very much they only gave a couple of examples so we were kind of in the dark about we like they'd think of

like. if you if you judge this by the the reaction the amount of uproar that it's generated you would think that there was a lot of very obvious militia russian activity on twitter but if you add up all the number of tweets i mean it comes to a tiny almost insignificant amount if you look at all of the election related tweets that the amount of attention the amount of investigation that's going into this is it justified by these allegations. but. hello joe can you still hear me i know we've got a slight delay because you still hear me my friend lost you there. ok unfortunately it seems like joe can't hear me anymore well just one more chance joe kinnear me it's neil in moscow. ok unfortunately the last show that. now r.t.

has asked twitter to clarify how it identifies accounts related to russian propaganda so far we have received no reply. or relations between moscow and washington have been somewhat frosty of late but the warm really feeling the cold it could be said is u.s. ambassador to russia jon huntsman. you. know we don't forget very well the ambassador there along with some of his embassy colleagues monks the orthodox epiphany and plunging into the waters the tradition symbolizes the back of jesus christ in the jordan river but he's in good company hundreds of thousands of people right across russia have taken the did it once again this year among them russia's president putin. made its policy cold i'll be staying in the warm studio and i'll be back in half an hour with the

ready to go acceptable respectable well it's going to take more than a shape for that and take more than. i just said that. so my friend would you mind me asking what brought you to our lovely tessa here let me get your first name put money into some power. pals barbershop where we have the heart of being a war when the middle of a very historical neighborhood here in chicago is going through a lot of stressful things right now you've been here alan seventy four you must be doing something right yes we're doing good business we're good people here were professional we're licensed most barbershops back a day or historically you know a place where weather comes together me and they kind of this big change and it's generations have checked my goal is to go to bring them back i want to make a place where i can get my head that i was the give me one day of my neighborhood and i couldn't find a place for us so like you know what i'll push right here in this mall this mall

was it you know what it was here and i stood here with a thirty thousand dollars business by myself for like three months nobody came in there one day i got to watch as they were going to have three boat was. we were going ever since kind of sort of defined fact yes this big fat facebook page is believed to be and imagine i was blessed to you know have some money instead of my work in film production. of live in this neighborhood for years i care about my people my situation is to be the best example you can be so you know what i'm an all complain about not having a barbershop am a poor one and so i went to bob a college got bob's license that stuck with me. of a tame a barber teacher's license so i was stuck there and on the bubble chicago for a t.v. show you almost got for me to do was go to the marley with the me brother reasons because we were traveling through self coda. and met

a fellow who's a native american who is part of the dakota lakota sioux nation ok and he runs and he started on the rez because there's a lot of poverty on the reservation so like you he said you know what i'm going to start a business on the reservation to all the young people consider you could have your own business he just said the same thing moved in pretty much just you know there's no barber shop you did all of that at a time when it was probably the most difficult to do that in the economics of it yes and no i guess in the sikandar was one of most a gated cities in the world we have two different neighborhoods our sales african-americans were divided to gang bigger ones so some of these that keep us apart said the barbershop is not just an easy thing to do just you know property is it if i box it's a lot of different factions that have to do with just our visits. to really

bunch of cattle which is saying one of the worst things they could have had to a man and it was business happen to us here so somebody came to do a start right there and started shooting. two clients killed one shot. in his box up two years ago. you know bob right now was here. those below where badge ready for war. changed the session this is your neighborhood your bob's and your barber shop to shop go back to the course is this pretty much know you have it would you like to go back to you would feel it was blown out and i don't you might . think this spirit of death you know me. keeps people where nothing less well feels will pretty much going to happen. we had nothing to do with everybody knows that we're positive and those that will stand it we license bob as we do is

supposed to so why should just fall back and what they did is one of situations with tragedy well as here we turn it to trial so was something bad happen but it was used for good so i was wise washout free are something somebody has bunch of these kids so they call for ceasefire labor because they realize a bit to hear of the kids that are going out here killed each of us wants to stand up because they respect you stand up to speak out so that's why we need to get all of barbra's go again obama powers is going to give the kids fifty four hours in the park for a couple of hours here is what they call the brotherhood of a cease fire. who would do is empower the barbers to start to speak to their class get this war starts there but right so if you empower pharmacists to really realize who they are what their. what their position is aside they use their power to create change and they start to talk to the key to the keys look up to the city until they come to you to make them look good they will miss the mayor actually

paid attention and gave us two hundred fifty thousand dollars over the bar college and a barbershop across to mayor emanuel maybe we finally you've done something. others were all this baggage that. whenever you get asked where you are that is and by the way you google me i'm perceived as a trump loven right wing christian and christian conservative all of the dead about to get about it's well. there's a. bill this is new years. are not about. you but you get to the t. word from there. you know who it is so we reduce the number who is we're going to say what i'm learning this i'm just stupid. the way you are where you're from who i am what i've been through you know i'll tell you right now man i

find myself more blessed and happy and joyous and free the more i stop worrying about how much i think i can impact all this politics of this and. try to save the world you can't save the world the world is the very last place is a billion people who are right where you can save your family by being the best example from a you can say to your community you come in you tube where you lived ricky bobby is a good example as well as that we would always miss you know what's crazy what i'm trying to do right now and i'm going to get in trouble for this one boy but like rodney king said can't we all just get along and i believe we can once we get to know each other that's. you know what i'm all star trek tos was star struck by going to be our prime directive you know me though most of you know roads other cultures best know because you know where to be going to try to help and the deal is only on star trek you know in the enterprise you go all the cultural work we go and it will be one before the world like me could simply be that way.
