i. ceasefire in syria is east or ends in failure for a second day straight this is as russia's conciliation center says that terrorist shelling is preventing hundreds of civilians from actually leaving the and. in other news the russian olympic committee has confirmed the country has been reinstated as an i.o.c. member after removing drugs tests from the winter olympics proved negative. and south africa's parliament passes a motion for that could see the entire white population stripped of their land and without compensation.

great to have you with us this evening my name is neil harvey this is r.t. international. first this hour a humanitarian pause in syria's east has been broken by terrorists for a second day and scored into the syrian reconsideration center this is after safety codes that were established by russia came under heavy shelling from militants prevented civilians from leaving the besieged district situation in the enclave was discussed at a u.n. security council meeting that's just finished article respondent killing more people was following events there and joins me live on the line now from new york bringing that today then please kelli what was said in that meeting. well after we heard reports from u.n. officials about the humanitarian situation on the ground we heard from different countries represented on the fifteen member body that leads the united nations we

heard from a deputy representative of the united states who gave a heated condemnation of the syrian government and russia who she blamed for the failure of a ceasefire this is the representative of the united states russia has announced a daily five hour humanitarian pongs in the it's in the aerial bombing of civilians in eastern. this is cynical callous and in flagrant defiance of the demands of twenty four and one assad and his allies want the civilians of eastern to walk into the arms of version that has been attacking them and starving them for the last seven years this is not a humanitarian gesture. now the area of eastern goods this is an enclave east of damascus and it is under the control of rebels and terrorists who want to overthrow the syrian government now the situation there is bleak people are

suffering but it's a little bit more complicated than we're hearing from different forces and different countries and different representatives in mainstream media at this point the rebels and terrorists in eastern guta are using the area to stage attacks and shelling against the highly densely populated civilian areas of damascus and we actually heard russia's president vladimir putin comment on the situation this is what he said. it's really new especially when you know where the fish are and you look unfortunately there are lots of extremist forces in the east and the result is a range of terror organizations recognize why the un shelling is continually coming from that area and on some days the number of missile strikes and moved to charlotte which is fifty to eighty they even reached the territory of the russian embassy should we tolerate this indefinitely of course not. now the humanitarian situation is dire and all parties agree on that no one disagrees about

the fact that people are suffering but what was pointed out by the representative of russia to the security council was that essentially these people are being prevented from leaving people in eastern guta civilians are being prevented from leaving through the civilian court or by terrorist groups that the terrorist groups essentially want the civilians to remain in eastern guta so that they can be used as human shields furthermore the russian represented it was very clear that that this overheated rhetoric and these accusations flowing from certain countries are not going to resolve the situation they're only going to intensify the situation in eastern guta and in the surrounding areas where the fighting is taking place he also wondered where the humanitarian outrage was when the city of rocco was leveled by u.s. led coalition forces this is the russian representative do because. when you have coughed we're levering iraq which is what was you know. it's been

months since before the city and. the security council because the circuit genetically expeditious lucinda mission this is that in news there. now furthermore we have heard from the russian center for reconciliation in syria and they described how essentially over three hundred civilians have been attacked and prevented from leaving through the humanitarian corridor or by the terrorist groups that are controlling eastern ghouta currently they've also described in the past how these terrorist groups are preventing medical assistance from getting to civilians in the area now we also heard from the representative of the syrian arab republic he addressed the council under their rules because the the meeting pertained to issues in syria the syrian representative has the right to address the meeting he addressed the meeting and was harshly critical of the united states and other countries for their rhetoric regarding the situation in syria and he pointed out that essentially terrorist groups operating in syria are warehouse and chemical

weapons and that they intend to use them he had predicted that by march thirteenth there will be a chemical attack in syria by terrorist forces that they will carry out a chemical attack and furthermore he went on to condemn the united nations for a centrally promoting the group of the work of the white helmets the white helmet is a is a group that has links to the al qaeda terrorists and one of their films was actually shown in the u.n. chambers the eco sock the eco sock council of united nations actually screened a film by this group that has links to al qaida a designated terrorist group by the united nations so it was quite a heated exchange at the united nations but all parties agree that the life of civilians in eastern duty is key and that all efforts should be made to prevent the death of civilians and make sure that civilians can flee the area however there is quite a disagreement about who's responsible for the circumstances in the situation in

the country and that was what world leaders were clearly clashing over uses on some fascinating exchanges taking place there in new york many things our correspondent kelli more pay. reporter marty arabic has been the scene providing updates from the besieged enclave of eastern ghouta let's get her report. going to it's the second day of the truce they haven't seen any civilians walking through the corridor it is known that there are many civilians who want to leave their own place to leave it through the one and only korea there were open for civilians from glitter however militants prevent civilians from exiting and don't allow them to leave due to leave occupation route to reach the road to damascus the militant positions are just three or four hundred meters from the corridor or near the campus are offered in the syrian government has distributed leaflets and monster billions on an altar controlled and placed this detailed information and a map on how to get into the area under government control you can see that

everything is ready here to receive civilians and to deal with any difficulty military and situation. earlier on we spoke to professor of political sociology dr saeed the american university of cairo he believes that the united states this fueling tension in syria by supplying various armed groups with weapons. for always playing with fire the one who was doing that was fun is all it was providing weapons was providing. who is financing them who was providing media coverage for them. and trying to show that that what is happening is. a must sardar is a big must let go of innocent people what they care about is those whom they have supply arms who they have finances who they have been breeding in the last few years and now they have lost all but they don't have the same quotes to admit that they lost that water was do they just keep on bargaining making all those claims.

the russian olympic committee has confirmed it's been reinstated as an official member of the international olympic committee nativity today has a story this is big news from russia as we all know the country's been at the center of a long running doping scandal accused a state sponsor of cheating and the repercussions of that have been huge one of the biggest was russia being kicked out of the international olympic committee the i.o.c. so this latest decision to reinstate it to the club is a key milestone as the head of the russian olympic committee points out. read the statement was tied to the full doping check of russian athletes who participated in the winter olympics the letter we received today says the i.o.c. is able to confirm all remaining results of the olympic athletes from russia are negative. the i.o.c.

has banned men to many of russia's experienced athletes were unable to compete at the winter olympics in pyongyang this meant of course that those who were allowed to compete should only do so under a neutral olympic flag and they were mainly newcomers nevertheless they won seventeen medals overall now if we go back to the events leading up to the decision to reinstate russia to the i.o.c. there were expectations that it would have happened during the winter olympics themselves but there was a problem to russian competitors fail drugs tests another consequence to those positive tests was russia being banned from waving the country's flag during the closing ceremony initially they were going to be allowed but the privilege was taken away however it's now hoped the past is behind it competitions planned to take place in russia and not in these threads well for the concerns i'm prepared for those torn men's rights which russia already obtained so russia is once again an active member of the international olympic committee but it is not the end of

the road yet there are still two issues which remain unfulfilled situation of compliance was renewed that is too long time the still a way to go because the russian anti doping agency restart it is still banned by the world anti-doping agency or wada risotto lost its accreditation and that is yet to be reinstated that's an ongoing saga as russia disputes the legitimacy of that mclaren report which detailed russia's alleged systematic system of state sponsored doping accusations russia has always denied and wada has been insistent that to move forward russia must accept the findings of the mclaren report this is stalemate and it doesn't look like either side is yet willing to back down but for now with the i.o.c. his decision it means russia's olympic athletes will be able to compete under their own flag and play their national anthem when they win medals a huge deal for competitors and the country they represent nigeria tutor r.t.

. from a football or an arty host stan collymore discussed this announcement with alexis the rocket head of the twenty eight thousand feet for world cup russia organizing committee justice prevails the only emotion for us it's only it's only just. that after we complied with every requirement that was that has been put forward no matter what we think about this requirement but. russia has complied. just as has been done to us and very happy that our athletes will now complete complete complete with their proper uniform and with their proper for. the south african parliament has voted in favor of mutilate just lation that could see land from white farmers see correspondent paul asli has the story south african parliament has backed a motion that calls for changing the constitution and allowing for land

expropriation without compensation essentially white south africans will lose their land they will not be compensated this despite the fact that it flies in the face of the current constitution and it follows the inauguration of the south african president oppose a two weeks ago he has said that he wants to speed up the transfer of the land from white to black south africans now despite the fact that ended two decades ago you still have a situation in south africa where most of the land is owned by whites this is a hugely emotive subject for south africans the motion was bought in parliament by the economic freedom fighters party that it did receive the support of the ruling african national congress that holds some two thirds of the parliament the leader of the affair had this to say. the time for reconsideration is over now is the time for justice we must ensure that we restore the dignity of our people without

compensating the criminals who stole our land but emma is a controversial and somewhat radical figure in south africa in the past he has said that he's not calling for the sort of white people at least not yet in recent years there has been a spike in the killing of farmers in south africa now those who support the motion say it will go a long way to restoring justice but those who criticize it say it will do anything but there are those who say it will lead to unforeseen consequences and also will be a scapegoat that the a.n.c. can use to explain away its own failures nonetheless it certainly seems as if we are far away from the storming racial tensions in a country that has so much history myatt in them. the belgian government decides to make it easier for the police to raid refugees but it's a move that sparked a backlash i'll explain all after the short break.

apply to many clubs over the years so i know the guy even so i got. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the passion from the families it's the age of the super manager billionaire owners expected to do the twenty million why of. course. it's an experience like nothing else i want to because i want to share what i think of what i know about the beautiful guy a great so well more transfer. and thinks this minute.

welcome back the belgian government facing a backlash over its plans to make it easier for police to raid homes that housed refugees the draft bill being considered would lead officers search private homes that are suspected of sheltering unauthorized migrants or to show the dubious he met with one local who suffered such a road. when the uterus jungle camp in cali this tool apart thousands of michael scott it many came here to brussels it was meant to be a pit stop instead for many it's become more permanent as belgians have opened their arms and their homes to my currents though for some that's brought its own perils five o'clock in the morning i heard the door. first kind of

a shocker with sleeping in so i wake up with a move in july get the conniving flow in my body and i can be honestly yes who is it it is ok but i have no idea where you really are the north while the government friendly and i saw seven men and one woman coming in the door pushing me aside going near her but asking me are you along yes i am a lot it was a case where three they went into the lobby when the the other side wanted to see if nobody was i would really have the impression i was a terrorist that something truly terrible happened sixteen year old mohammed migrant from sudan is the reason the police came around six months ago he was sleeping rough at brussels maximillian park if felice going to park my somalia here early going to catch people they sleep they. are five o'clock more everybody sleep

they all you will see a police front of you if you are. a killer for the take you would deliver. just wait there wait there you shows. you. because they want they want you feel very bad and they don't want anybody imbarked lots of media and so when i came i saw him such as there he was really really you know he's sixteen and he was there at least already for two weeks knows where to sleep along this path with some friends and nothing so i say ok i'm home in august last year i spent the night at maximum park it was clear it had become a transit point that thousands had already passed through fearing that a new callee could emerge the government began a program of raids and arrests well for now mohammed has

a roof over his head it looks like the government is making a new play in a bid to evict migrants like him it's due to vote on plans to allow police to search private homes suspected of sheltering unauthorized migrants that's provoked outrage was yet some are worried that while many migrants are in need of aid others have more sinister motives some terrorists have used fake i.d.'s some terrorists have posed as michael and seeking asylum what concerns do you have about letting people into your home of course the risk of zero there's nothing exists so i cannot tell you that i will be one hundred percent sure that they are not their host of course but the persons of nigger and that are taoist so little. for the nuke hosting mohammed has so far been

a routing experience for mohammed it's changed his life how different is your life now compared to what it was just a few months ago see here hundred sixty degrees. and like that. every so often now i have family. in the family and really for me for me. i have a i was. a half and despite his good fortune mohammed says his family back in sudan always in his heart. so now while you are there well bella everleigh while there may never have a hundred luck a lot of our. worship our mother globally and that our other guests in charlotte along with and she were. party brussels.

angle americal has acknowledged the problem of so-called no go zones in germany now this is the first time the chancellor has made such an admission with details is peter oliver. we've seen an unexpected change of time. when it comes to talk of go areas in germany. there should not be any no go zones there can be no places where nobody dares to go by these zones exist and they should be named and something must be done about it. merkel had previously used the same injury phrase no go area to describe parts of the country with a high crime rate but that rate has been going up the government's own figures released earlier this year point to a ten percent rise in violent crime between twenty fifteen and twenty sixty ninety percent of which is attributed to young male refugees there was criticism of last

year of the way the german media covered the refugee crisis in a highly respected group of researches said this it is acted as public educators and that the whole refugee crisis in the arrival of hundreds of thousands of people was covered in too favorable a light. and i doubt. that . the only people who had been talking about no go areas were alternative for germany and they were bound be mocked for doing so are common enough but all guns are lying can you as a woman walk alone on vaal show streets on

a weekend evening would you dare will post show or nearby streets and then they say and make it look like more you the aggressive ones they say bad things about the city no what we do is look at things in perspective what we do is simply address facts and facts only ladies and gentlemen. but here's the thing in order to secure a ruling coalition angela merkel has been trying to win over the right wing of the conservative alliance should try to secure that fourth term chancellor she may well be thinking. taking a step towards the sunshine policy of alternative to germany could help get those hardliners back onside with peter all of a party. of the german media claims it's the biggest cities that are of worst affected with criminals taking over entire neighborhoods their police have come under physical assault in such areas which are reported live run by ethnic gangs

political scientist says that some neighborhoods are no longer recognizable it's not the longer the case that every person can move freely around just as he or in particular she wants because we hear of neighborhoods insidious which look not like being in germany but like in a different country if you look at some cities like the northern part of or of more like parts of deuce books like parts of the lean in for some neighborhoods it's really a problem in this truth is locked right they'll come to be frank on this point we have the same problem arising out of drug criminality but immigration is a part of the whole problematic that argument. the afghan president has called on the taliban to join talks to bring peace and stability to the country and he promised to recognize the terrorist group as a legitimate political power. to the taliban leadership and every other

taliban member except peace accepted with honor and come together so we can make this country safe and secure holes that the taliban has yet to respond to that invitation but about two weeks ago the group issued a statement calling for peace and urging u.s. congressman to pressure the trumpet ministration into negotiations the list came in response to trump's earlier declaration that ruled out any possibility of peace talks between washington and the taliban. there's no talking to the taliban we don't want to talk to the taliban we're going to finish what we have to finish what nobody else has been able to finish we're going to be able to do it well we discussed all of this with political analyst muslim shazad he thinks the afghan president lacks orthorexic to propose peace talks with the taliban why the taliban often seventeen years should come to the table with a government what the taliban say it did didn't have anything to to do with their self otherwise the united states is going to decide these conflict off afghanistan

and the other issue i don't think that the afghan government especially prison gani and in u.g. michel unity government can be tackled the ongoing issues because when you can do and compromise with good cabinet ministers i mean prison accept any how you can convince a group like taliban would defy to seventy years of the control of the two three four five years and now they have support of several countries to come to the table so the big question is do we have this opportunity to do and forward he starts writing not because you know this is inside the country and they decide they should talk about it taliban or they should fight with the taliban. ok appreciate you joining us this evening here on anti international don't forget if you are planning to head out a little later you can also get your news on the go we're on twitter we're on facebook and you can check out plenty more stories available on our website had to

teach dot com. hey everybody i'm stephen ball. hollywood guy suspects every proud american first of all i'm just george bush and r.v. to say this is my buddy max famous financial guru just a little bit different. though no one knows up with all the drama happening in our country i'm shooting the road have some fun every day americans. and hopefully start to bridge the gap this is the great american people.

at the moment we've had the period of fake the flame. engineer by all the central banks and that they don't have the control that they think that they have and once you start to see this being picked up in markets like the gold market and others you know you've got to start to see it feed on itself in a big way. in some american cities the police have built themselves cling to refutation of people who walk on the streets of the united states who are at risk from the very people who are supposed to protect that poor people are no more afraid of the police than of. you can see something happening and this is what i don't want to call the cops let that happen rather than call the cops in those young black men lose their lives

chasing the same goods on the trigger you never know better safe than sorry i don't know that someone else is going to run so. unfortunately around and around here we end up playing our guns on the dance told from such preclusion this place to be like when we do. this is boom bust broadcasting around the world from washington d.c. right here i'm part shelton and coming up today we talk currencies and sovereign systems with david merkel all with investments and ashley banks tells us how cars in germany are changing by law plus russia now holds more gold than china and has
