been done here in moscow. this is r.t. international. a massive rally to mark a may day in the french capital turned violent as mass demonstrators burned cars and hurled smoke grenades correspondent charlotte dubin ski was caught in the crossfire between protesters and police who were deploying tear gas and water cannon. well all come for the moment however those clashes we saw between the police and the protests have been some of the most remote functionalists intense clashes i've seen in the last fifteen months or so in france i just want to give you a sense of what sort of damage has been created from those are clashes and not just
5:02 pm
clashes but the damage that was caused by the protest is the police had warned early on tuesday morning ahead of these may day protests that they thought they were going to be hijacked by anti capitalists by anti fascists and they were indeed that they came out in their hundreds ready with a gear their safety gear to be able to protect themselves from the tear gas the masks just have a look at this is one of the vehicles that they burned still smoking there and just behind it the plumes of smoke that came up from this vehicle huge promptly mz of smoke that went up and just completely marked this block of apartments where people were living protesters who had damaging and smashing items up across this part of paris and the police had to let them be however when they came in when they started the fires here when these apartment blocks were put in danger then the police intervened a we were cool in the crossfire here is what happened in the middle of cashews now
5:03 pm
starting when the police wanted to have a look around very you'll see the tear gas is coming up to us the police move again and that's because just behind us there is a fire going on the demonstrators have put forward to a vehicle and emerge a bike and as you can see i have smoke because it. well as you might have gathered we've just been in the middle of what was quite a large clash between the police and the protesters just look behind me this is one of the trucks with the water cannons and you can see the gendarme now coming down and you can see some of the water in the firm that's been on the ground to try and push these protesters back take a look behind me and they're actually trying to barricade themselves up now that's off to they set fire to what looked like a g c p the fact it's still own fire over there in the distance the process is to
5:04 pm
it is if you just turn around a little bit more will cause me to have a look this you may see this big old dog smoke coming up here on the protesters what they did is they lit for it see what seemed to be some sort of motorbike and the car this protest is due to continue these guys say they want an empty cup to the society they want an end to to fascism of their own thing that but the reality is what are they doing today is not just smashing up the big businesses in the big enterprises they're actually now searching up small enterprises and putting people's lives in real danger shola the pinsky altie paris. more than two hundred people have been arrested over those clashes according to the police. but france was not the only country to witness clashes between police and protesters both turkey and greece also saw their labor day rallies turn violent
5:05 pm
however many nations did enjoy a more peaceful demonstrations including in russia germany and the u.k. . which. israel's prime minister has gone all out to prove once and for all that iran lied about its nuclear ambitions he wheeled out thousands of documents and c.d.'s of evidence as part of a powerpoint presentation comes just twelve days before donald trump is expected to scrap the iran nuclear deal tonight i'm here to tell you one thing iran lart the evidence well that lies in this filing cabinet allegedly thousands of documents and c.d.'s half a ton to be precise proven conclusively tehran misled the world about its nuclear plans both before and after the twenty fifteen agreement we've known for years that iran had a secret nuclear weapons program called project come out hailing this as a significant development and a great intelligence achievement that in yahoo was sure iran has one reason and one
5:06 pm
reason only to hide this information why would a terrorist regime. hide. and meticulously catalogued in secret nuclear files if not to use the mood of literally a state hiding its nuclear weapons program what other country would do such a thing some will remember netanyahu twenty twelve un speech and the cartoon bomb iran's foreign ministry has already called his presentation a propaganda show but the issue here is also a serious one since the onset netanyahu has been an ardent critic of the iran agreement so this is a terrible deal. i think this deal is a bad thing to do or it should never have been concluded. and in a few days. president trump. will decide we'll make a solution on what to do with the nuclear deal. i'm sure you'll do the right thing
5:07 pm
the right thing for the united states. the right thing for israel. and the right thing. for the produce of the world this development comes at a crucial time for this international framework in less than two weeks president trump will decide the future course of u.s. action is likely to differ strongly from the other members of the five plus one group despite last week's niceties during president micron's visit to the states so far trump has kept his cards close to his chests we'll see what happens his favorite phrase whatever does come about on may the twelfth there's a new yahoo will do all he can to convince the world that scrapping the deal is the right way forward even at the cost of years of negotiations and a delicate regional power balance. hailed as a huge diplomatic success the around nuclear deal was hammered out back in twenty fifteen between the u.s. china or the u.k.
5:08 pm
russia france germany and iran of course the negotiations took nine years ending a long standoff tehran agreed to strict limits on its nuclear program and to open facilities up to international experts in return some sanctions against the country were lifted after netanyahu promised to share his data with the world germany and france both said that it needs to be studied in detail however the white house backed that near his presentation saying that they ran and tried and failed to hide these activities from the world and that statement contradicts data from the nuclear watchdog the international atomic energy agency and the e.u.'s foreign policy chief in turn said that netanyahu claims don't put into question iran's compliance with the deal we heard reaction from people in the iranian capital now that sam is in the white house and your clients are. having infamous audio it seems to be. what is after again to break that deal and make it make up pull out of the
5:09 pm
of the. certainly the israelis had precise information could be investigated in a serious manner they would take action fast because they know they have to do something to get exults in a much shorter time i. ran has been committed to all its promises now these release are just playing games but i don't think very referee was accepted and i think the european union support. i'm pleased to say don't you mcadams executive director of the ron paul institute joins me live on the line always a pleasure daniel i just want to start let's get the very latest first because netanyahu presentation was preceded by the israeli parliament decision to allow the prime minister and the defense minister to declare war on their own in certain cases extreme cases now i just i'm just curious do you think that is a coincidence or is it you know preparation for something more sinister. well that
5:10 pm
itself was preceded by yet another israeli attack on syria on iranian bases in syria iranians in syria clearly trying to provoke a reaction from iran or for syria from syria which would draw in the americans because netanyahu knows very well that he cannot take on iran on his own he has his judge jet fighters bombers would not make it there in fact without u.s. support so he's desperate to draw the us into a war because he knows that israel cannot take your all on by itself now in two thousand and two netanyahu gave a speech that some people said was quite similar to what was heard yesterday on this and that occasion though it was referring to iraq of course let's just have a listen. there is no question whatsoever that saddam is and is working and is advancing towards the development of nuclear weapons question what's. now on that occasion it
5:11 pm
was led to an invasion of iraq and that will have some people worried that that's the direction we're heading in what are your thoughts. well that is what he wants but for twenty six years he's been telling us that iran is two years away from a nuclear weapon so what does that say about his credibility even the i.a.e.a. today took an unprecedented step of refuting what he said what he's done is repackaged old information the whole project a model that he talked about was known to the i.a.e.a. back in two thousand and eleven you can read the report from november of two thousand and eleven they knew all about it and they had concluded that it stopped in two thousand and three this is all stuff even when netanyahu was before the u.n. in two thousand and twelve waving his silly bomb cartoon as we know now from a leak cable his own intelligence service had concluded that iran was not pursuing a nuclear weapon so he knew he was lying to the u.n.
5:12 pm
he knew he was lying to congress how many times has he gone before congress and lied about iran so in fact i think his credibility is less than zero it almost feels as if he's taking this up for donald trump to get this out of the park because this must have been exactly the kind of preparation that donald trump would want to hear to scupper the iran nuclear deal but the you got the spanner in the works the i.a.e.a. saying that they don't believe that iran said any involvement in developing nuclear weapons it's two thousand and nine so whose opinion counts the most here. well bibi is playing trump like a fiddle but look around trump is good all the same losers that were in power in two thousand and two who lied us into going into iraq you know look at look at his national security advisor the people around him so they know exactly what they're doing and trump is just biting at the lies that they're telling him who knows what will say but i think they have already had to walk back some of what netanyahu had claimed so the white house jumped up ahead and said oh we agree with everything he
5:13 pm
said but the facts are coming out and they don't have control over the all the information anymore there are a lot of fact checkers out there that challenge the mainstream media why only share the information you know prior to the announcement with the united states i mean we've already heard the likes of i think it's france and germany saying look we're going to scrutinize this because you know we're not playing games here this is serious stuff but one of the share with the u.s. prior to it. because the we're supposed to believe that somehow just a week or so before trump has to make his decision on iran all of a sudden they come into this amazing information here let us rush to share with you this information telling you how evil they are it's all pure theatricals you know dozens and dozens of c.d.'s all of that information would fit onto a tiny little hard drive but no that wouldn't have the effect the whole thing was pure dramatics just like his ridiculous bomb thing at the un it's just a desperate ploy been unfortunate the neo cons are there more and more in control
5:14 pm
of the bushes or of the trump administration said bush what sort of protean slips are using the same gauge that they've used back in two thousand and two to lie us into another war as you mentioned. with for example of iraq and the weapons of mass destruction the public how they do remember this stuff this time around and i think this is kind of more reluctance to bite immediately do you think israel can pull this off and perhaps lead some kind of aggressive move against iran or with the be too much kind of reluctance from particularly european countries well the neo cons are very strong in the us as i've said several times but we also have the problem of the end our physicians on the left has really made common cause with the neo cons because they don't care about anything they don't care about us national interest they don't care about our security they care about one thing and one thing only which is to get rid of trump to make trump look bad so if there's any way that
5:15 pm
they can pressure trump to make it look that they're joining with the neo cons the main line democrats there are still some anti-war progressive but unfortunately we've lost all of our normal allies on the left that would be opposing this information so i would say we're in a precarious position and the americans as we know sadly enough are very susceptible to war propaganda daniel greatly appreciate your thoughts my guest daniel academy's executive director of the ron paul institute always a pleasure. donald trump has said that getting rid of nuclear weapons on the korean peninsula will make the world a safer place you also expressed confidence that his meeting with kim jong un would happen soon this comes in the wake of friday's historic summit between the leaders of north and south korea during which the two sides committed to denuclearization to sign a proper peace treaty however donald trump's national security advisor says that denuclearization should be based on what happened in libya will president trump in
5:16 pm
assist that kim give up or ship out all of those nuclear weapons all of those nuclear fuel or all of those ballistic missiles before the u.s. makes any concessions yeah i think that's where denuclearization means and we have very much in mind the libyan model from two thousand and three two thousand and four speaking of back in two thousand and three libya agreed to eliminate its weapons of mass destruction but as artie's my guess the eval explained now the country didn't exactly benefit. remember the colonel colonel gadhafi he once had the nuclear program scary stuff a despot with nuclear weapons so the world sanctioned him pressured him punished him eventually colonel gadhafi offered to scrap his nuclear program the u.s. and britain made the deal all hush hush they lifted sanctions resurrected relations
5:17 pm
made friends seven years later they came back and helped to kill him. he died painfully tortured alone in the desert his army having been obliterated by the u.s. britain and allies his murderous freedom fighters they called them then would go on to plunge libya into our naki killing thousands many and the place on terror lists later pundits in america in europe in korea would write that perhaps gadhafi giving up the only weapon that could have protected him was a bad idea in pyongyang's view the libyans took the economic bait foolishly disarmed themselves and once they were defenseless were mercilessly punished by the west the president a firm really been leaders gadhafi is brutal death does not offer much confidence
5:18 pm
can join in about a safe exit the libyan crisis is teaching the international community a great lesson iran when giving up its nuclear program thought it could get a better deal i want to ask if you're have made up your mind to pull out of that deal and if you do pull out of the deal do you think you worry that sends the wrong message to north korea as you seek to enter nuclear talks with kim jong un no i think it sends the right message you know in seven years that deal will have expired and iran is free to go. ahead and create nuclear weapons that's not acceptable seventy years is tomorrow that's not acceptable you can't help but wonder at the logic if there is any it's hard to tell sometimes with trump how is ripping up a nuclear disarmament deal a good thing or a good precedent maybe north korea will get it it has now floated the idea that it's too could give up its nuclear program it is important to be positive
5:19 pm
optimistic look forward don't think about what happened to the last few guys that gave up their nukes maybe mr bolton didn't think about what he was saying he does one north korea to the somme right not grow its nuclear arsenal in paranoia or perhaps mr bolton one of the most hawkish and militant officials in the us brought up libya on purpose it seems like they are telling the north koreans don't disarm when they do that because of course north korea like iraq for that matter disarm and then the u.s. invaded them and destroyed them and killed the leaders and killed all the people in the in the ruling circles so you can really tell mr crump when you i mean you know one moment endorsing peace at another moment is telling. mr kim that he is going to be. sodomized with a band that like they. will mark it off or hang them as they did to saddam
5:20 pm
hussein if the north koreans feel the u.s. is going to destroy their country and would have starved all the countries in that area. meanwhile south korea has started removing the loudspeakers from its border with the north in light of the deescalation they used to send out pointed messages like these. broadcasts could be heard not only by north korean soldiers on the border but also by locals living close to it again the land speakers on both sides have regularly been removed and re-installed following times of both tensions and the escalations between the two koreas meanwhile the leader of south korea moon giant has even
5:21 pm
reportedly suggested donald trump deserves the nobel peace prize for his efforts and got public reaction to this first in the united states. which world leader has done the most for world peace three. that's a tough one but i guess i'd point to him as a moon of south korea and can you point to which world leader has done the most for world peace out of these three. the world is there to tell us why. and of joy trump the only one that's been able to get these people to talk to each other. the leader of south korea has suggested that donald trump be given the nobel prize oh my god i know he doesn't deserve anything but. i find it difficult to give donald trump credit for anything is the worst thing i ever heard oh my god. yeah that's not going to have. just hours before the
5:22 pm
u.s. was about to slap europe with huge import tariffs on steel and aluminum a special exemption has been extended it had been feared that if the tires have come into force that they could have triggered a full scale trade war smear a car reports from washington. one would think that europe would be happy with trump's decision to extend the exemption for another month but europe wasn't too pleased saying that the tariffs should be done away with completely now in addition to that the e.u. warned that it would not negotiate under threat these uncertainties however have negatively affected european businesses as the state exemption has only been granted for one extra month there's a sense of the cam having been kicked down the road firms cannot continue making investment decisions based on short term uncertain deadlines washington has been trying to force countries to accept. many of imports and they have until june first to accept washington's ultimatum things are so tense that chancellor merkel and president across even across the atlantic to talk to trump about this but it
5:23 pm
doesn't seem like it matters how touchy feely you get with trump his mind appears to be set going to sound so nice to you. you know why i mean they literally did i so they formed to take advantage of the united states and i don't blame them if tariffs are imposed the e.u. which happens to be washington strongest trading partner says it will retaliate by placing tariffs on lucrative american imports including harley davidson motorcycles levi jeans orange juice and kentucky bourbon to name a few. so now we will also impose import tariffs this is basically a stupid process the fact that we have to do this but we have to do it we were not impose tariffs on motorcycles harley davidson on blue jeans levis but we can also do stupid we also have to be this stupid so the good news is the trade war has been postponed for now but the question is will europe back pedal. editorial director at
5:24 pm
the american institute for economic research as jeffrey tucker told us trumps being thinking about trade was from the start trade war is what he didn't and from the moment he put his hand on the bible into the office of office i don't think he wants to come to a good resolution to this complex he wants to create the conflicts and then keep creating and keep creating the conflicts is a convinced economic national he really believes that it's in this part that it's we can create an american national machine or production that's not the europe canada and the rest of the world that this will somehow be good for america don't trump believes in a zero sum kind of world it's like neither america where ends or america loses it's very difficult to say who's got the most to lose everyone has something to lose american producers and consumers and all of europe and producers and consumers i
5:25 pm
must say is an american i'm very embarrassed and this is what we've come to. a leading cancer surgeon in russia is raising awareness of the dangers of late diagnosis he launched his campaign after he himself found out too late that he has the disease and now has little chance of survival. over the sickness which channel when there was no real vision discomfort. that i was ill but chills had stomach ache took some pills to still decided to check book the symptoms meant the scans actually it was in june so with the lights off i already have the new system.
5:26 pm
yeah but the day i found out i told my wife that. for some presents for our kids she panicked started crying it was shaking i tried to comfort her as i could told her treatment plans the hardest thing is to help my kids cope. with the project is to give cancer patients as much information about the disease as possible currently the situation is that we have a sort of between the patient and doctor the patients must know everything about the disease the prognosis all the possible complications and all the options. they have. but i'm doing this right. it's like.
5:27 pm
it's turned out that more than hall of migrants who are taking integration courses in germany have failed to pass basic language test says the country's about to open its doors to even more asylum seekers artie's peter relevant picks up the story for germany welcoming well over one million refugees and asylum applicants over the last three years was just the beginning the tough job comes in well integrating those people into german society that seems to be pretty much something everybody agrees on just ask the chancellor into god so when one took the integration of the turkish urging migrants has very special meaning for us to meet the focus here is to learn german language those who speak german get better involved in our society . under the halls. of kirstie i did challenges the big number of refugees in germany not to only register the chief to task of integration and long term
5:28 pm
residency will only be granted for refugees for the task of integration and that things have not been going to plan the federal office for migration and refugees have just released their latest figures in relation to refugees and asylum applicants taking language courses the numbers make for pretty viewing less than half of those on the course the chief the basic level of language proficiency things like being able to go to the hospital go to the shops or apply for a job while just over forty percent achieved a lower level than that where they say you can understand but not speak the rest well they either failed the course or didn't complete it in its entirety and well that lets them bode well for people looking to get jobs that require qualifications the most of the german courses in germany after all have rested g.'s. needs another course they need advice from friends and other
5:29 pm
people to improve their germ skills you know for me it was a good day i had a lot of german friends so i was willing to integrate and too was a german courses and to go to school the integration program doesn't come cheap last year six hundred ten million euro of taxpayer money was funneled into it and they haven't seen a good return on their investment. it can be assumed that a large part of the funds spent were lost because the courses were characterized by dwindling numbers of participants votes at the top of the program say they need more time but acknowledge that one of the main reasons people don't pass is that they don't show up for classes but others acknowledge that. some refugees traumatized by the experiences that they've had while others don't come from a so-called learning culture having never attended school in their native country
5:30 pm
many off their. basic learning skills because many of. didn't attend school at all it dropped all too early. so it might be too difficult for them to. a foreign language which if you characterise german refugees and tried to stay only temporarily out of law which they fled from this over to return to their countries of origin and we should focus on. teaching them to scoot switch to need to reboot their country of origin instead of teaching them some very basic german which and along wrongness of nor us what it is the big paradox or because. on the one side whites and populists want that migrants integrate themselves on the other sites they say migrants are criminals they generalize they are they are bad.
