. you know you have a train to go for making sure that there's always fun at these winter olympics and . the u.s. has now set the day when it will move its embassy in israel to jerusalem may the fourteenth that's the date in one thousand nine hundred eight when the state of israel was declared here's how president trump described his decision making process. people calling begging me don't do it don't do it don't do it campaign against it was so incredible but you know what the campaign for it was also incredible and we did the right thing to put it simply trump said he doesn't care what the world thinks about his decision to move the embassy to jerusalem which actually supports israel's claims to the city but when he says the campaign against his decision was incredible he means this. person.
11:33 pm

a blatant violation of the rights of palestinian people must be resolved through negotiation between the two parties are un member states throughout and the other members this is bullying and this john boehner will not bow to do that now despite international backlash the state department has notified congress that its embassy will be bouvard to jerusalem on may fourteenth which is much sooner than originally planned last month a vice president can set the embassy would be moved by the end of twenty nineteen but like you said may force. also happens to be the day israel declared its independence back in one nine hundred forty eight and it was the day president truman officially recognized the state but considering the international community's past response it'll be interesting to see how they react to this latest announcement. gideon levy a columnist for the israeli daily parrot's believes lives are now likely to be lost because of the decision the united states is supporting the united states is
11:35 pm
really slipping in the face and spitting in the face of the palestinians moved he moved the embassy to jerusalem and in this same time the clear jews in the east jews is the future capital of the palestinian state then i see it would be quite reasonable step there were tens of palestinians who live in the life for this for the first declaration and unfortunately there will be more tense of palestinians who will pay in the live pay their lives but by the end of the day there will be another uprising another intifada not a single state would stand up against the american administration and nobody will take any measures and it will remain a holo lip service like many other services for the palestinians an american magazine has been forced to retract

11:38 pm
seems some media outlets are eager to break stories of russian trolls in about a how dubious the sources are earlier this week in germany's build newspaper reported an e-mail exchange between a german politician and a supposed russian agent who is offering his services to swing public opinion in germany the tabloid based its article on what to turn out to be a prank staged by a satirical magazine. yury i'd like to talk to you about supporting your new group. thanks for your mail jail red soled need to expect a mail from you just to be sure could you name me g.'s favorite beverage as you can certainly understand this is a delicate matter me oh me oh martin ginger beer europe perfect that's a relief so what can you offer me. basically we can offer you everything an opinion campaign with lots of gates shoots social bots on twitter and facebook or even

11:40 pm
a political policy or party or whatever and that's sad because it's very important at times we're living in a very complex and is there's a need for sophisticated journalism there is not just buying on on one side or the other there's a need for real sophisticated grasp of the complexities of developments and it doesn't help to develop that sophistication when there are these kind of stories might. being the waters so many. governments are involved in this so it's no surprise that the new sites for for the fall for this. russian lawmakers are said to push ahead with harsher penalties for child sex abusers it's after a series of extremely disturbing allegations emerged from an orphanage in the region.
11:41 pm
i asked my son what they did with the man who came to see them my son was stunned and said what made fright the taters i asked what else they did he rape me that was his answer i was lost for words i called another mother she told me her kids had the same story. my son decided to tell me everything he told me i was so afraid they said they would draw me in the lake and would lock me up in rehab for the rest of my life. for the. children say that one of the supervisors who brought them to this man and his friend just watched them being raped and all the boy saw how they gave money to the supervisors the small children didn't even know what the banknotes were so they
11:42 pm
just described them as green bits of paper. that. most of the issue was going. to. eventually get a good number of that week. but in this show they're raping a child they're those kids they're talking about it openly stay here until the night and listen for yourself what they are talking about at their school. to be able. to get was framed they're accusing him of something he didn't do the
11:43 pm
director of the orphanage who let former inmates into the school they stayed overnight there they're the ones who did all of this with the kids and now they're just protecting each other so you complained about wrongdoing at the orphanage about abuse he was so naive to do this he filed complaints about the orphanages directed to kids are taken for a walk in winter without proper clothing that the older kids are beating of younger residents that they're not giving them food sometimes. and that you are a far reaching investigation into the claims of abuse is under way right now child welfare specialists are also carrying out assessments of all orphanages in the region. a policeman has died after clashes erupted between rival football fans in the spanish city of bilbao on thursday earlier my colleague union o'neill discussed the events with its. was.
11:44 pm
was classes saw five arrested both spanish and russian nationals were understand at this stage also multiple injuries reported as the fans pelted each other with objects including flares and crackers and it was during these disturbances just a couple of hours before the match that this police officer tragically died initial reports of course in some tabloid media did claim that this was a result of wounds sustained in the clashes and reporting some sort of blows to the head or face causing is the spanish police have officially now denied these reports he became manuel as he was coming out of his van as he deployed to the scene of the disturbances he suffered a cardiac arrest after collapsing that he was pronounced dead on arrival tragically our hospitals and other media were also very quick to report that it was the
11:45 pm
russian fans who were at the center of this trouble they allege that they started this disorder that they even used weapons to attack the locals knives bats and change and cetera and this is of course despite the fact that what exactly happened in circumstances leading up to these clashes is still under investigation or radio free europe radio liberty for example commenting on how this could impact the world cup here in russia coming out this summer as well despotic press service they've also issued a statement saying what they describe as provocations were actually expected from the very beginning they were. in the full knowledge that they wouldn't be welcome in the city of bilbao upon their arrival from the media reports and russian fans before their arrival and the increased security presence as well. even allege that a team interpreter suffered injuries in one incident before the game what is clear is that the atmosphere in the city was tense from the various. start we know that anti far activists marched on the street prior to the much violence was shown on
11:46 pm
c.c.t.v. footage on camera footage as we can see there as well the picture will of course become clearer once you wait for the police do get more details from their ongoing investigation or there's a from we'll be back in about thirty four minutes with a full look at you news you want you heard the international.
11:47 pm
i mean you don't see. what they did they could put it. to me through only ten space. left in the film said. claiming to know. that. you speak french. continued. to. the surly mongers approach to economic slow bold blow bubbles from wells fargo wells fargo love the church charlie monger and war love it turns the word.
11:48 pm
i have the honor to interview i was to a crook he is a four. e.u. diplomat and founder and director of conflicts forum and we discuss the middle east and west are welcome to moscow and thank you for talking with the with r t. let's start out with syria and the conflict has been going on almost seven years now. a part of that conflict has come to an end with the almost complete defeat of isis and its affiliate. in that country primarily proxies now this calm thirty is changing how is it different this conflict about as opposed to the formal one you know it really is quite tragic because syria was slowly coming to
11:49 pm
a conclusion and coming to an end and a political end with a political solution that was going to very likely from these other processes going on and now suddenly we have new wars and we have a new episode you use all the plural wars wars explain we've got three at least wars. the internal war is slowly going the war against the jihad is is winding down syria's had a big success which i always thought was going to be much more difficult but in practice it's almost finished so we should be moving directly towards a political situation instead of which we have first of all america deciding to have a permanent base in northeast of syria on thirty percent of syria why do they want that it's nothing to do with putting pressure on us to get
11:50 pm
a better constitutional agreement or whatever there's something quite different about that it's a very aggressive position using the kurds as it even though the kurds are not a majority in this part of syria at all they're actually no more than thirty percent in that poll maybe a majority in the. of the country yeah yeah for thirty or forty maybe but a lot of the country. and really what this is about is is first of all simply to deny president putin a political solution to syria in advance so that the so you elections here this is spite is there when it is the politics of diplomacy or a military doctrine of spite you could call it that or you'd say it's the policy of the lowest common denominator which is to stop. all putin having a political victory from syria of being if you like winning or maybe it's just
11:51 pm
a policy of not knowing what else to do you know it's been a very clear and. deliberate policy by centcom who actress viceroys in this area the colonel in charge of it x. is a viceroy in this area it's a very deliberate policy to deny the territory and they say this is clear to try and build it up economically and it's not a short term thing to do with the star no because if you look at the defense estimates for twenty nineteen not this year but the following year you'll find five hundred fifty million mark for the kurdish forces that the americans are using then horse three distinct ok one more there the second war of course is turkey has come into a frame and says it's going to go all the way across the border than the border of turkey right up to the iranian border past the north and the euphrates to there and
11:52 pm
to clear out all of what they call the kurdish terrorists there along that border but in the middle of this there's an american roadblock called be sitting straight in the middle of the road that the turks are going to go take and. the americans say we're not budging and the turks say they only are not going and the tech say we're going anyway in the literature of our life the two most important nato allies in the entire life exactly and the rhetoric in turkey is is is really heating up very strong very nationalist very anti american very strongly. everyone and not only do they say they're going to go and we don't care but there's also conflict with the syrian government forces now the turks have put their positions in and it led almost to block the syrian army from completing their
11:53 pm
operation here part of it is illegal in the sense that it's part of the deescalation zone but you know this is also politics geopolitics of of turkey trying to to block it and now we have an agreement it seems it's a formal agreement between the kurds and the syrian government that syria will come in and take over the three in area and they and the turks are saying no we're going to proceed jeffrey so there is a real risk now that not only that can be if you like a war in the north east either with the syrian forces or between with syrian forces or russian forces in the north east but a conflict between the turks and the americans and a conflict or both between the turks and the syrian armed forces and then.
11:54 pm
we have israel which has been bombing regularly syria during this period and as you know very well last saturday the with the incident where we were that close to a war very very close to the war with the shooting down of an f. sixteen not only an f. sixteen but the most sophisticated. it's been reported that president putin and prime minister netanyahu had a conversation and it was quite heated we don't know what the contents of that were but i tend to agree with you it was very close to the line right there the escalation was necessary but it's also showing force ok i mean it's also debated to what degree syria took the initiative to defend itself over and over the years of one hundred incursions from israel over its sovereign territory and that plane went down so it is upping the stakes here i think it's quite clear that this was a strategic decision probably not only by syria but perhaps by syria and its
11:55 pm
allies to make a new redline of israel kept if you like not only disrupting but disrupting any political process in syria by these methods to i don't think they were doing that much damage to syria and from what i understand but it was but it was an effort to show israeli force to show that they had the ability to overfly now what is critical in this and what is very obvious is that the air defense of syria is totally unified in integrated with the russian system it carries a russian flag on it it's not just the syrian flag so clearly when they were flying firing what they described as a bouquet of twenty seven surface to air missiles at the israeli aircraft coming in
11:56 pm
you know the russians who all about it i'm not saying there was permission or they nodded but they didn't they didn't take action against all the players that you talked about they're not the bluffing type i mean particularly the turks everyone is put invested in an enormous amount he can. there's not a lot of wiggle room for him here ok aside you know all of his great swaths of his country are still under foreign occupation here in the states is there almost no one of all the parties we mentioned once the united states went there and then we have two other countries we haven't had very much about there but on iran you know i think this is i mean i think precisely this was the aim of mr putin's talk with the israeli prime minister to say listen you know ok you may have your interests in your security we hear that but you don't mess up
11:57 pm
syria but our security interests that's russian security interest ok not just to start we want a stable syria and we want to stable lebanon and you can't just send in planes every week to bomb the country and disrupt the political process in this way it's unacceptable and i think this was the message that was delivered both physically and by telephone. to the prime minister but it's a very strategically huge message because israel depends entirely on air superiority overwhelming oh no total i mean the army they made a decision after the two thousand and six war that they couldn't put boots on the ground in lebanon let alone in syria for more than six days i mean they would not be possible to do this so superiority is crucial do they have it now i
11:58 pm
don't know do they have it in lebanon maybe not but it's been tested. it's been tested and now israel has a huge decision do you actually set that and digest it. effectively say we are deterred we are not able to use military force. against the arab way labeled us which i'm a little shift in if you will in its entire military posture in the region cultural shift they culturally have been a used and. assimilated to the idea that they have complete domination of all of their arab neighbors guys and that they have the military right to use it and suddenly they're being told well you know maybe the there's a problem with the road coming in and of course i mean you know putin's given his warning so the israelis also have to think i don't know what missile was used. i
11:59 pm
doubt it was an f. two hundred but it could have been but what also is there are s. four hundred who are very potent russian surface to air missiles now if they ignore mr putin's message and say we're just going to take it all out. there's going to be a problem the israelis claim to have taken out most of the surface air defenses of syria i don't believe i don't play cause either because as i said it's an integrated system with russia it has a russian flag on it they're not going to take out russia's surface defense system because it would be unacceptable they know that so they took out a control tower or something like that but you know what do they do next does a except there's do they say well look the air defenses of syria in lebanon are only going to burn the long term we must try and take an early preemptive action to
12:00 am
destroy them before they become even better what are they going to do or are they going to say well we have to just come to terms with the reality much as we dislike it that we have lost our military earlier in the break accepting it it doesn't seem part of their d.n.a. i think culturally almost impossible to to to excess. i think they would try and find some means to avoid exceptions i think you know one of the let me jump in here we're going to go to a short break and after that short break we'll continue our discussion on the middle east stay with our team. played for many years so i know that. the ball isn't only about.
