weeks ago using somebody to tug. on the west and. the cheese eating surrender monkeys became wrong all along from. my first hot chick named credit the seven hundred million dollars. to destroy one hundred thousand dollars worth of cereal. on the side this relationship seems strange from the outside. you want. to. hold the nation's. global security and here they are burying. her and other european leaders. because it. was pretty safe. the way he did us.

over the mental. issues of the run and trade. the time. because. by the way there. apart from the french president german chancellor angela merkel old sort of paid a visit to washington though the interactions between her and. more formal the iran nuclear deal was one of the main issues discussed with the u.s. threatening to scrap the agreement and political list of. things that while france might be coming around to america's thinking europe as a whole is not. the trio nations in europe especially friends even more than germany and britain is trying to get closer to donald trump's aspirations

and demands especially with regard to you was not the only issue but there were some of your all is a standing against any intensification of fog and all problems and tensions with iran they just reject the demands by the trio of european nations all week we've gone to the polls the third there are sanctions on iran for its missile and regional activities so this shows that europe is not much milling to you know work with donald trump. friday saw an historic meeting take place the first summit between the leaders of north and south korea in more than a decade. going to.

talk a. little . after hours of talks they reached

a number of key agreements that could significantly warm relations the leaders announced they would seek to fool denuclearize ation of the peninsula they also vowed to still whole hostile actions against each other and to gradually reduce their weapons arsenals additionally they agreed to hold talks with the u.s. and china so as to arrive at a peace treaty now donald trump praised the progress between the two sides following decades of tensions it seems perhaps a final peace treaty could now really be on the horizon human rights attorney eric can believes the two koreas already. i think what we can expect is a exciting moment in time in which. as they said it is south african history and hope could rise if you have it in a certain time in a certain place and i really am hopeful that from these talks we can see the framework for a full peace treaty to finally end this conflict it seems both sides are ready and

willing to do that if the south and north can create the framework of their own steps in self-determination then the us as it's much smaller role to play if we can agree that and hold them to the notion that ending the hostile policy creating a peace treaty with the u.s. and south korea will lead to denuclearization of the korean peninsula. by joining us so far for the weekly one hour to international about halfway through the program at this point in time tensions though remaining very high along the gaza border this week of all palestinians were killed in clashes just on friday alone and that's in the mix of your top stories just.

now. but hala. this institution. we put themselves on the lawn they get accepted all rejected. so when you want to be president or injury or something or want to be rescued. it's a good life to be for us that's what before us three in the morning can't be good that i'm interested always in the waters of my. question.

thanks for joining us today for the weekly four people were killed in the latest palestinian and say ok patient robinson gaza palestinian health officials say dozens more were left injured during friday's protests and they were just the latest in a series of planned mass demonstrations dubbed the great march for time. did a good. job. was right but you know.

this is another injury that's came just right now there have been severe injuries in the head and in the legs and i was not in the band in the post minutes we received at least ten people with severe injuries to the stomach and head the ambulances are still carrying hundreds of injured people to the hospitals there is a lack of medicine and medical equipment in the hospitals and they're crowded bob so as you see this is another ambulance that's came just right now and from the left that your defense and as you see this the ambulance has at least and for palestinians that have been injured what happened right now to the fence is that of at least two thousand palestinian protesters and try to interfere and break that the fence and what happened is those are your choices and i reacted there violently and they started that issue of yes i know these palestinian protesters were broke

the fence that according to palestinian minister has at least ten twenty palestinians. are you going to. declare that any minute. the i rest is taking place near a security fence surrounding the land the palestinians claim was stolen from them protesters have been met with a heavy handed response from the israeli army in four weeks at least forty palestinians have been killed and thousands injured the united nations and the e.u. have condemned the israeli response to the protests. israel's failure to consistently prosecute violations committed by members of its security forces encourages them to use deadly force against their fellow human beings even when they present no threat in the context of an occupation such as garza killings resulting from the who use of force may also constitute willful killings which are

a grave breach of the fourth geneva convention israel though it says it's been using non lethal force for example the sponge tipped rubber bullets however the army nation is said to be harder and heavier than older versions it's been linked to severe injuries and even death and israeli human rights group recently released a video purportedly showing a group of soldiers in the west bank discussing the use of live ammunition. oh. the telegram. we asked of the israeli army to comment on that video it said the behavior shown is not in accordance with what's expected of i.d.f. soldiers but they also pointed out the commanders demand that the soldiers act

professionally the i.d.f. also promised to carry out the necessary and relevant procedures over the incident but our young palestinians are among those reportedly killed in these demonstrations one incident was caught on camera allegedly showing a teenager shot in the head by an israeli sniper just last week the boy's father says he posed no threat to the soldiers but one israeli general believes it's the quote price to be paid to ensure the safety of the country. though i said mohammed was three hundred meters away from the fence and even if he was right next to it he was a peaceful demonstration he was just a child was he carrying a missile launcher was he shooting at the soldier who killed him why did they kill him i'll tell you what mohammed did wrong mohammed's fault was that he was demanding his rights to my great sorrow and sometimes when you shoot a small body and you intend to hit his arm or shoulder it goes even higher and the

picture is not a pretty picture but if that's the price that we have to pay to preserve the safety and quality of life of the residents of the state of israel we're not at the price . it's been revealed that the former head of moscow's anti doping a laboratory chain coffee a key witness in the entire russian doping scandal failed to confirm a number of allegations against the country's athletes. it came during his recent testimony to the court of operation for sport in february the court upheld the appeals of twenty eight russian athletes banned for doping but it's only now given some of its reasons. i joined my colleague andrew fama to discuss the latest. byrne first and foremost in the past few years that we've seen the scandal unravel a should say it has been established that pretty much every single athlete in russia dog so it seems it was common knowledge at least that they had a special drug cocktail brewed performance that the swapped the dirty urine samples

for clean ones through some hole in a lab wall so a lot of was said in it was said by a man named grigori roche and of so he was the key witness he put forward the allegations but in the in the case basically during that hearing the court of arbitration for sports he revealed that many of the stuff that he said was best circumstantial first and foremost he said that he never actually administered the said cocktail which he claims he concocted to himself he says that he never saw anyone administering these said steroid cocktail he didn't know how the cocktail was smuggled from russia abroad because well you know to be used in an international championship it would have to cross the border and also he's never been a witness to the mysterious you know you're in the swamp dirty to clean one he did say that his allegations came from basically talking to his colleagues but that was

it when it comes to these allegations and in the past two years his words were taken at face value i should say no one questioned them and brought it up himself was propelled to fame even starring in an oscar winning documentary about the doping problem and russia have a look. i was hoping to facilitate what was the last elaborate employees in sports history was aware of the existence of a russian doping system because. we are top level chicks. claims were the foundation of richard mclaren's report which was then used for a blanket ban on russian athletes and he was speaking to was an e in this court case what did he say well indeed sir richard mclaren a canadian law who basically pulled put the burden on his shoulders to compile

a massive report on the scale of the dog problem in russia testifying in front of the same judge being cross-examined as well he said that basically while he did not shy away from mentioning athletes by name in the report you know we said he meant to you know assume that they were guilty of something so basically being mentioned in his doping report did not mean he says that those athletes were complicit he also revealed he couldn't basically you couldn't explain justify to the court of arbitration for sport why he trusted roger and why he never questioned his allegations also he refused to provide the names of other witnesses of you know of turn it of sources so to speak he used to put together the report so the good news for those thirty say athletes that had their appeals upheld but they would say well ok ok that is good news but the damage as far as we're concerned is already been done to our names well indeed because what happened back in february twenty eighth

russian athletes they used to be banned for life they had been banned for life from participating in the olympics which means they were stripped of their medal as the future held nothing for them from that point no more achievement see have. revoked and it happened literally a few days before the kickoff of the olympic games in south korea none of them were invited to participate many of them would love to saw there you have it you know mud sticks. are that just about wraps up the weekly for this hour here on r.t. international but much more to come in about up an hour's time.

when. anything that interrupts free trade interrupts freedom and i think interim freedom is a reversion back to neo feudalism and we see that happening right now in the united states and presumably here in canada as well sometimes concentrated in a few or fewer hands bradly a river of the risk of neo feudalism on the horizon crypto is is the answer in my view and it is an asset class and it is gobbling up market share and the us dollar is still all free up money is don't. go to war hawks sell you on the idea that dropping bombs brings police to the

chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battle for food going. to stop spread of tell you that celebrity gossip and public bus files are the most important news today. on the hop the maverick tell me you are not cool enough to buy their product . all the hawks that we along the border will walk on. it was our summers and i built tiny houses for the homeless. six years back and they are here why do these guys now for me a tiny house is not a solution it will be a free for. this nice safe conditions to live in. to suit the president and the city of los angeles.

always good terrorists. nobody should be homeless anywhere but especially in one of the richest countries in the world. i build everything with stories because i make a lot of mistakes. and it's easy to back out your mistakes in compton south central l.a. a pint sized idea as well this summer as in a battle with city off already so when you have nothing in order to go. you know having something like this may as well be a castle. the mayor of los angeles has declared the city is in the midst of a homelessness crisis. is trying to solve it one tiny house at

a time the tiny house idea is very simple it's shelter. food water and shelter are not optional they're required for human survival so it's a. temporary solution and like the first stone a foundation if you will to helping people who are homeless. according to elvis these cheap and portable tiny homes meant to be on the streets of l.a. . and they need to fix. but right now they're not moving anywhere because city authorities banned them so they used to belong to somebody yeah yeah. and now they're being used no now they've been sitting here for a better part of a year collecting dust. and people are you know struggling and suffering. so yeah it's really sad i mean it's you know this is human life here you know. los angeles

authorities have accused his tiny homes of threatening public safety but elvis has seen the tiny house movement go viral online with support coming from right across the world so with the help of internet crowdfunding he's going rogue once completed they all have a new carbon pad. alarms on the windows i put the vents these holes in the top you know it's really hot summer here so that way the heat all rise and go out in the city of angels elvis isn't considered one by the powers that be. but to the homeless he's one of the few struggling to get them off the streets i don't quit and i don't give up and i definitely don't bow down to bullies people need shelter now if i have to build a tiny house for every last person until i'm five hundred years old then that's what i'm going to do.

elvis is building his next house for a woman who braved. a few people that live. ravens living on the top next to a freeway. and far from safe. the situation much worse than when this last. check of this is already on a service. area. to see. ravens being on and off the streets most of her life. area yeah sure after fleeing violent home when she was just thirteen. she once had a time since the city of st she's been out here so you do not. tired

after getting that. pretty well. pretty light. when they. when they do it. like. elvis is worried by the state but this communal camp and he. to buy raven a tent until he can build her a new tiny house so i'm going to have it sent and run every back to you guys in a little while. alone present opens up about his situation. it's been a struggle. and. the city always keeps us out from the state to stay clear of those. who want to costly move their stuff every day.

ravens out here because she feels the mission c shelters are overbooked or unsafe but city law was designed to move these camps on. and as a phone queue she receives a visit to. our. boys and we got to. get him about this by saturday. elvis the. raven is given matching orders. she's running out of places to go they want everybody downtown the way but one section. it's not going to happen we're trying to get a branch out. to try to get away from downtown they wired by downtown but six downtown skid row. the worst place in history to be homeless downtown.

if you're homeless in l.a. city louis to keep streets clear give you two choices. keep moving. on the dance grow. this is the only place that you can sit up a tent without the city forcing the belief. that elvis is tiny homes aren't allowed here. skid row is. unlike anything else in the united states. i call it the worst manmade disaster in the u.s. . are you. doing ok. and he fails runs a pig the merchants the shelter in the middle of skid row which i'd like to he's

seen the numbers of women seeking help in a truck in just a year what you mean can't daedra face to meet you unless you've got pretty eyes. and he's on crutches because last year he lost a leg to the flesh eating bacteria that exists here still every day he's out inviting new arrivals to his shelter because he knows just how bad it gets more than two thousand people on the streets forty nine square blocks of skid row it's the worst that we've ever seen. just a good idea you really need to look down that street there's not one open spot or summat sidewalk. or i'll be a half a mile down that way. elvis is tiny houses designed as an option to avoid sleeping on skid row. because here the increasing numbers of women and children a sleeping alongside drugs crime and the mentally ill. and police are the only

source of protection starts a pretty constant ending yes day and night. for maintaining order here can you struck running with. commanders running with handcuffs it was fast. spend one night every once in a while and streets and i can't sleep because it's so dangerous and you just stay alert rats are running around running over people running in their chance and often people get beaten or assaulted or raped and that in effect can damage your mental health pretty quickly. so i'm all for tiny houses but there has to be restroom facilities and shower

facilities because otherwise we're putting in people in treacherous living conditions just as if they're in their community. and this is why and the shelter keeps an open door policy but he's struggling to keep up with demand i can see right here right across the city shelters are full up many have to turn people away the simple fact in l.a. is there's just not enough shelters there are not enough beds forty seven thousand people experiencing almost this and there are about twelve thousand shelter beds or transitional housing beds even if people on the streets right now decided to come in there's nowhere to come in there's no place to go. up against with limited access to emergency shelters and low cost housing life on the streets in l.a. is an endless game of cat and mouse. because the city is charged with keeping the

streets clean morning everybody this department of sanitation crew is about to move through the homeless encampments of skid row. watch up watch out for hazardous materials watch out for human waste. industrial operations like this. happen daily across los angeles to keep the streets clear forcing the homeless to be constantly on the move. we are here every day in skid row every street is clean once every two weeks so this cycle that's the big effort we're doing it's suspect think it's essential it's essential to the city's livability the center of the city's becoming growth and also the city's image this team will put more than five tons in the gadgets truck today anything they deem to be unsanitary. most of it will be rubbish but some of it

will be people's tents and the few positions. that. have fought for something. like. this that. you're in a waste. that the city gives advance notice of the cleanup but not everyone gets the message today or so many lucky ones now that. you're asking to. they like it because repeating i mean if you want to person living on the street you want to live if we sidewalk decide to devalue a loss leader. but the city's focus on keeping the streets clean means further instability when you're living on them.

it's also one of the main reasons.
