an incredibly coase eve and sustainable growth model in the country they became the most competitive country demoed country the most technologically and digital country in the european union they created an enormous number of jobs quality jobs and at the same time they have integrated two hundred fifty thousand migrants they have the highest ratio between migrants and not eve citizens in the ward i mean of course sweden is a very small country i mean comparably to other countries i mean eight to ten million not eve city since amy and they have integrated not only welcome because you know it's not only a matter of welcoming people and putting them in attempts i mean seen in several countries i mean the problem is that first you have to create economic environment to to integrate them and then you have to put in place policies for integration that means languages their language teaching that means providing good jobs i mean

that corp with the skills that these people are improving their skills if needed i mean and then created also a societal environment that is really helpful i mean not to create tensions but on the contrary to create an amalgam i mean some kind of will. also cool to integration if you want to go there with an economic and social integration all these the swedish model shows that this is not impossible the reason i'll turn it even we are not not no more or we should not be any longer aiming in this stop the stuck in this thread. as they call it i mean there is no alternative alternative is possible. time now for a quick break well have more with the general secretary in that interview in a moment plus alex mahela which will tell us what canadian prime minister will be doing here in davos but first now let's check the numbers at the closing bell.

make its manufacture consent to step into the public well. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the final merry go round be the one percent. we can all middle of the room say. diluting the real news. yes i was pretty hurt with the market you. mean the most of us to. believe the words are almost the young thing we will all

soon but you know one of the stuff and little bushes i saw campaigning thank you for coming i'm going to move into the middle of this crowd small you the new coach that we've seen on t v. easy show reason to judge. you will more than a bunch. of the proceeds go to the imus show do you can you get other corners something you. did to miss told. the president. that your sudden passing i've only just learned you worry yourself in taking your last wrong turn. your attitude up to you as we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry finally 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 feelings started to change you talked about war like it was a cave still some more fun to feel those that didn't like to question our arc and i secretly promised to never be like it said one does not leave a funeral the same as one enters my mind gets consumed with death this one might differ. i speak to you now because there are no other takers. to claim that mainstream media has met its maker. but rather stand her and her horses. are all all powerful on one small mom. and our good armor are more appropriate but there are rather no other gods before for thera care of their.

own lawyers to let them but i don't cut in there you cut them and kick and they are all mine i have to lose each other first of all now that i live in the living they are a lot lower than i was monosyllables i know it does. mar the. numbers that i would i want to do it. for the good for its whole for pleasure for sure gone the i'm yours or your pay i think to a mysterious said larry true she ought to zero zero zero. somewhere else for the name africa will fuck around the first second if that for a dream and then where to hope that are fairly in your court.

canadian prime minister justin trudeau delivered a keynote speech at the davos conference striking at any quality as a major factor for global unrest and hurt old to economic growth artie's alex model of edge has more and toronto. at his second appearance at the devils forum prime minister justin trudeau made a keynote speech he served off by talking about t p p and how it's alive and well without the united states of america they are countries that are involved in it right now should be signing off on march the eighth to push over or push forward with that deal for issues that he thought were really pertinent dabbles a i and technology really took the helm he was talking about how technology is replacing workers and how countries and institutions corporations really need to

address that fact because another issue pops up inequality inequality he says is a dangerous thing that's going on in the world right now we've seen the numbers we've seen that one percent of people on this planet hold about over eighty percent of the wealth and he says that is dangerous that corporations need to do their bit to stem that and to basically make sure that workers are getting what they are due on top of that he was saying that women's rights this is a big deal when it comes to prime minister trudeau have to be front and center for the canadian economy load he said if the gender gap is less and the canadian economy could add one hundred fifty billion dollars to to it by two thousand and twenty six one point seven five trillion for the u.s. g.d.p. and two point five trillion dollar boost for china if they do the same thing so some big numbers here on the sideline street will be talking to business people from alibaba coca-cola alphabet big companies and he will also be talking by having bilateral meter meetings with

a lot of world leaders back to you. want to get back to davos switzerland for the second part of bart's energy with the general secretary of the european trading in confederation let's go that's unclear . and in that regard you know in the in the u.s. we've sort of taken a different approach is i'm sure you know just had a recent tax bill in the the theory behind that is you give tax breaks to corporations and then they will trickle down to the rest of the population and provide better income but you're really saying that it's different when you talk of about sweden and in the e.u. you're talking about investing in people both social job retraining cetera and then that will work its way up. exactly you know flat tax or reducing taxation in

general is not the way to increase wages i mean also because then people who are left to pay for any kind of social protection they need to bring their life including pension systems etc so at the end is a fake wage increase aiming and. the water column in general but particularly then the capacity of the state to to continue investing in the economy and to continue performing in terms of social protection systems so that we look to a completely different and alternative model we don't want. to decrease taxes we want to increase wages we want increasing vestment this is the point i mean and mr general secretary how do you make this case particularly given you know there are these austerity measures in germany and other places around the e.u. where the obvious belt tightening going on i mean how do you make the case to legislators in the e.u. and other places where you have members now that this really is the way to go forward yeah there are two elements and one is for migration in particular you know

there was no austerity at all about migration policy in the european union in the last two three years on the contrary i mean they were peon unions to do shows they put billion euros of disposal of the different member states and to welcome migrants to work on refugees and to integrate them into labor markets etc and paradoxically. we had a completely mixed situation a mixed reactions on the one side you had full count race two of them very rich germany and sweden that welcome a lot of people more than one million people in total and then you have other two who are i will say the d.c. tell you my own country and then greece and they also welcome under a thousand people i mean also because they have the border of the european union exactly where the migrants have come in handy and all these countries where paid for that and they yet resources i mean to make sure that the system was working and then all the other member states of the european. the other twenty four more or

less refused to work on any refugee and depart doxy is that the ones that were more vocal in refusing are refugees where the counter is where unemployment is lower and where there is more fiscal space to invest money for that i mean in the west of denmark the netherlands even france they are really beginning they refused to will come anybody on the east or you have and very poland slovakia czech republic countries where there is almost no unemployment on the contrary you have incredible brain drain because the wages are so low that all the young people leave the county to get somewhere else i mean to get a job a decent job and so they have on the contrary a problem of guessing deliver market they could feel for with very skilled i mean migrants and refugees but they refuse it simply for ideological reasons so this is one element is the money is there is not true the darnall resources to do it the problem is that politically speaking they don't want to do it then when it comes to

the general problem of austerity again ok we faced almost a decade of cruel stary in the european union does destroy jobs but also killed people actually really killed people because there were a lot of people going for suicide i mean because they couldn't get a job because the their activities were destroyed i mean they were out of the society etc so terrible it was terrible of me but now the situation is light improving not only because there is some kind of growth palming is still not enough i mean especially in terms of job creation but particularly because the european union institutions are changing their approach and they are really moving from the old facial neoliberal austerity to a different macroeconomic model and there is a lot of public money mobilized at the moment or through some new policies put in place by the european union and particularly there are some initiatives i mean to that they rebalance the. economic dimension with

a social dimension in the european union a serious social a full faith legal initiatives i mean to or establish and bring full subjects of the european to support europeans so it's an old enemy that was more or less dismantling during the crisis and the austerity policy so there is a chance probably disease the moment when we can really catch the momentum for changing i mean fourfold moving to a different model and can you tell me given the current scenario in the in the world and particularly here in davos we're talking about dealing with a fragmented world is solidarity among those in the labor movement as important as it's ever been given the current circumstances. well you know there's been a trend in the last years to come back to the nation of naming sure i mean for fear maybe for let's say. show not to be able to influence of the international decision in the globalized war dummy but you know this is not

a solution in this globalized warding the globalized economy we need even more internationally of the of the of the of the labor movement than before i will say because you know even if we fix a problem the sweden i was mentioning before if you have around a completely different situation that creates dumping against the counties that are performing better in terms of inclusion and sustainability well in the long term they will be killed so it's fundamental for the labor movement i think not only to be united but particularly to be really international to build up a new kind of international solidarity that is not only about let's say showing solidarity or slogan so demonstrations is a bold global policy the capacity of evony of having an influence i mean on global decision makers to change it to change the situation and it's not only about let's say you need between counties it's also about unity among the different categories

of workers because we don't have to forget that globalization and the crisis and austerity they have created two categories of workers the so-called insiders and the outsiders i mean the ones that are still a bit protected and they're struggling to keep to keep their protection i mean and their rights and on the other side the others in the digital economy in the platforms etc that are no rights at all and so we need to see to see how to make sure that we are not simply moving being side to the conditional of outsiders but the other the other way around let me mr general secretary or something that you may not know and there's no reason you should but i am a very small polit like you are a poet or you're pretty well renowned i'm just a financial. but one of your poems the walk really caught me and i thought it might be apropos i want to read just one line from it you say i arranged the landscape into an infinite walk and you've certainly arranged the labor landscape for us in

our viewers but it's really just not a short term thing this is an infinite walk for you isn't it exactly exactly you know the landscape changes old the time and we need to change she told the time that's the sense of the kind of wool i may know that we continue aiming evolving and we never stop by me never stop fighting the stop struggling but the never stop also trying to change things and to change the will of the disease i think our mission if you want a sports but that's what the union the general secretary of the iti use see luka vincent teenie thank you so much for being with us. we have so much more from the world economic forum in davos and right here in d.c. including my interview with patrice on women making their mark and albus but before we go here are some final words from commissioner bart shelter. before we go the theme of davos this year is about creating a shared vision in what they call a fractured world and there are many political economic and social issues that we

talked about today on the program and these are issues that people around the world do not agree upon there about our collective purpose around the planet and remains a pretty elusive goal to attain but that narrative that shared narrative is something that can actually make individual nations and the world a better place and that's what many people here in davos would like to see at the end of this week and that's what this economic forum is all about we'll get to more of it in the coming days but for now that's all the time we have please check out boom bust at you tube at youtube dot com slash boom bust archie catch you tomorrow . when else shows seem wrong. when all the old stuff just don't hold. any old

thing just to shape out these days comes to attitude and in detroit equals betrayal. when something you find themselves worlds apart when you choose to look for common ground. days ago the u.s. secretary of defense james mattis updated in revived america's global defense strategy it is a dark vision of the world and calls for a massive defense spending what he calls a defense strategy critics say is a blueprint for without it. this is says harlan kentucky. we've all read this group the boys says you can go green street families leave.

a co money city with almost no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the polarizer should. live to see these people the survivors of a world disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that is anything ever happened to the coal mines here and that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in the million years i would see that and it's how it's happened. was. i was. i don't know. what. do you need a million students out of that isn't a good look. out.

russia is complicit in the assad regime's atrocities you received three choices your true motives temp is frightening un is america blames russia for chemical attacks in syria regardless of who carried the minute or so to come in the south. the us government's a chief says the destruction of the syrian city of raka is beyond description after america's devastating bombing campaign that against islamic state terrorists. remain silent on the walls to sell tanks to encourage. germany's foreign minister condemns to these offensive against the kurds in syria and the platform they can use and extremist propaganda and you survey shows most people in the u.k. on social media to be better regulated.

follow the welcome is just day here in moscow you with r.t. international now our top story this hour there has been a fiery exchange between russia and america at the u.n. over who is to blame for chemical attacks in syria and how they should be investigated moscow says that future probes should require independent experts to visit the sites of alleged incidents but that was rejected by the u.s. russia is complicit in the assad regime's atrocities you are acting as judge and prosecutor russia is running from the facts your behavior exposes your true motives russia has the audacity to lecture the security council this is a long political spectacle for not going to accept any russian proposal that undermines our ability to get to the truth we should at least have taken a look at the draft before rejecting it russia all on its own killed the mechanism

we had specifically tasked to identify those responsible george you need an investigative mechanism for the job before an investigation you have accused the syrian government of using chemical weapons as well that rai there did come during a debate on how to tweak the system used to assess chemical attacks in syria the emergency meeting was held after the us secretary of state claimed that another attack took place in syria on monday he said that russia should shoulder the blame for that one and others too. whoever conducted the. russia ultimately burrs responsibility for the victims in these and countless other syria targeted with chemical weapons since russia became involved in syria the problem is it hasn't even been confirmed that these attacks even happened let alone who is responsible and there are only two sources saying this and both are notoriously pro-rebel this whole blame russia game continued at the security council and it

seemed to be haley statements were more about russia than anything else she even accused russia of killing the joint investigative mechanism but at the meeting russia said that the joint investigative mechanism became a political tool and called for an impartial investigation into all cases of chemical weapons use in syria including the joint investigative mechanisms new reports so we're not going to accept any russian proposal that undermines our ability to get to the truth or that politicizes what must be an independent and impartial investigation. of the fact that the us dismissed our proposal right from the start reveals the truth that they do not need an impartial investigative mechanism so even though several other member states supported the proposal of a new impartial investigation the us rejected it saying that it's ready to bring back the old joint investigative mechanism quote but all other suggestions are unacceptable. american reporting by the mechanism she mentioned there was

established in twenty fifteen by the un security council along with the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons and together they drew up several reports accusing the syrian government of carrying out chemical attacks and it also included one of the deadliest in qana she coun in april last year however experts did not actually visit the site before reaching their conclusions the mandate for the joint team's investigation has now expired a moscow requests that changes should now be made particularly the site. as it should be part of anything to investigations have samples can be taken directly it also underlined the importance of eyewitness accounts to which have been heavily relied upon in the past by the when we're extending from the serious solidarity movement does point out that the timing of the new chemical attack allegations come right ahead of expected pace talks we've seen that in the past day or two before geneva negotiations would start there would be so flame up an atrocity and that

again is what we're seeing happen happen here so it's really sad the the it looks like there's a possibility of ending the conflict in syria but evidently there are some forces that just want to prolong it and keep it going it's really sad and just one five zero point it's pretty stunning hypocrisy to hear the moralizing from the united states which have actually just we only use nuclear weapons at world war two that used. massive amounts of chemical weapons and in vietnam and massive amounts of direct you know iraq still the country that used chemical weapons to the greatest extent. among all countries it is in no position to be more allies. and we well with rex tillerson blaming moscow for chemical attacks in syria our senior correspondent noted gas steffen x.

now what responsibility washington should take for its involvement in the conflict the end justifies the means they say some things no matter how horrible just have to be done these are hard core fighters they have to be rooted out this is an ugly business but it is necessary business it's only after when the dust settles and you see what you've done the to start having second thoughts this is when you say that what did i just do. the devastation goes back as far as you can see it is almost beyond description how deep the damage is as many as a thousand strikes a month on record alone just strikes not including. tanks and all that more than eighty percent of the city was deemed unfit by the u.n. a city hall but raised so let's start with the obvious incredible work has to be

done just to get people back into their homes except we won't pay here is the disclaimer stabilisation not reconstruction the us will help fix the pipes but someone else is going to have to sort out the rest of this mess no sir the coalition freed you you do the rest we humanity ariens including the u.n. do not have access to iraq a city because of the presence of explosive hazard contamination which is endangering people trying to return to iraq a city and it's also endangering humanitarian access over two hundred people have died while trying to return to their homes and hundreds more have been injured from our understanding of the reports that we have only a limited number of neighborhoods in iraq a city have been cleared for returns and that's mainly in the outskirts. so who is

going to pay to rebuild an entire city the guys who helped the straw it say they won't the civilians returning from tents in refugee camps the syrian government which doesn't even control raca who. aren't gassed have reporting meanwhile thousands of protesters across europe are rallying against turkey's military operation against the kurds in syria demonstrations were held in athens and london as people wave kurdish flags and carried antiwar banners a similar protest took place in the german city of mannheim two people there are angry that german made tanks are being used in the turkish offensive more is peter all of. the turkish military operation against the kurds in syria has caused some consternation here in germany however officials in berlin say that they're only somewhat concerned about the actions of ankara the military confrontation between

turkey and the kurdish forces carries reached in and the last thing syria needs is another standoff imagine the surprise when german saw the footage of turkey's military offensive against the kurds and they saw german made leopard tanks as the speed ahead of that offensive it comes at a time when germany's foreign ministers the rio is pushing the upgrades for the tanks supplied by to ankara this includes things like upgrades to the mine protection abilities that they would have with rumors that other upgrades are in the pipeline for the hundreds of tanks provided by germany to turkey this is all seen is part of a charm offensive by the german foreign minister as he seeks to normalize relations between germany and turkey. your disturbed when we speak about nazi mentality. you do apply this type of mentality in germany you know

the cuban him does not say fact without question the hopeless nazis comparisons must stop unfortunately we see that these comparisons have not stopped us. however when it comes to questions over whether german tanks are being used against the kurds and says from the german government the norm the ground there's no official stance from the defense ministry from the foreign ministry or from those who deal with exports at the ministry of economics here no tanks see no tanks speak of no tanks as the lying coming from the german government at the moment but when it comes to the german people they don't seem convinced that they should be providing arms to turkey right now i don't think so why not. because boris bed and all. his constant.
