3:30 am
plea deal that really has soured relations between some of europe's leading leaders if you will and deliver kl said just this week that europe was at a crossroads when it came to its relationship with the us it certainly seems if it continues down this route it's a route that doesn't bring washington or brussels closer together donald trump is testing the patience of the european union and the u.s. needs to understand another part of the international community and they call just throw their weight around as they've been doing. and expects everybody to fall into line donald trump has as damaged relations is no doubt about that bought. clear that the e.u. are prepared to stand up to him now and obviously have to or is advisors will have to reflect on where they go now hopefully it will be a wake up call for the whole trump and you know he will start to see sense but if he doesn't there is a real danger the so i was still for. italy's euro
3:31 am
skeptic party has said come up with a plan to quit the single currency and write off most of the country's national debt that's according to a legal document from the five star movement and the nie which are seeking to build a coalition government r.t. shalah do bensky has the details. many people see these two parties who are from the left and the right side of the political spectrum as being quite radical parties they're anti establishment they're anti e.u. and already that leaked documents and it details of course some jitters on the stock market with many investors selling off their italian assets when those leaks were put online so what's in the document what's causing this vexation they want to leave the single currency that would mean quitting the euro they also want the european central bank to write off some of it elise debts with two hundred and fifty billion euros they also talk about russia and relations with the country
3:32 am
between russia and the e.u. saying that they want to scrap the sanctions that are currently in place against russia and want to see russia as being a trading partner and not a threat and also quite crucially they want to revise the e.u. migration rules that currently exist which means that migrants have to apply for permission to stay in the first country that they set foot on well we have had confirmation from the five star movement that this document is authentic but we've been told that it isn't all document and there have been revisions since that was dated on may fourteenth however we are aware they've told r.t. that there is a final agreement that's already been put in the new agreement on russia but we don't know the wording of that yet but one certainly to watch out for given the tensions between the european union and russia so why is there anxiety about these two parties coming together is seen as being anti establishment and some fear
3:33 am
that the suggestion that these two parties could form a governing coalition in in italy could actually threaten and destabilize the euro zone if you think about it italy is one of the three crew. members of the euro seen including france and germany and if you think of it as being a c three legged stool if you take one of those legs away then it could just completely collapse all around and that's what many people fear will happen with these two parties if they come together but let's be clear they haven't yet released a final document they still working on that they want to form this governing coalition so that italy doesn't face fresh elections that there still seems to be some sticking points before that government can be formed political scientist lorenzo probably asco thinks if the deal is implemented it could cause a political shake up across europe i think the key thing to here will be. the
3:34 am
actual action of the government will be if a government is in place with this platform so rather than the words written in the agreement i think we'll have to see whether this government. actually starts starts governing starts running the country and which policies it actually tries to put into action so this could have an impact on other countries both in terms of the rhetoric towards europe and in terms of specific actions. and you report by german media suggests berlin obtained decades ago and shared it with its allies the nerve agent was used in the poisoning of former spy service group al and his daughter yulia in march in the english city of salzburg the u.k. blames russia for the attack claiming it was the only country possessing the substance parties polly boyko has more on the latest developments. the headline grabbing revelation in this german media report is that the german intelligence
3:35 am
agency the b n d has handed a sample of the novacek nerve agent since the early one nine hundred ninety s. it was apparently brought over by a former soviet scientist moreover according to these reports the sample was analyzed in sweden and then it was passed on to germany's nato partners including the u.s. and the u.k. the german media investigation also says that this goes to show that russia has been producing novacek which is something that moscow categorically denies but coming back to the formula itself it appears to have been a pretty badly kept secret earlier this month the czech president milan stehman said that the czech republic had produced and stored albeit a slightly different strain of the nerve agent to the one used in souls brave but nevertheless that country shouldn't be hypocritical about this. small amount were produced in the czech republic we know well and we know where it would be critical
3:36 am
to britain such a thing never. however politically moscow has been cost very much as the unequivocal perpetrator of the soul's bre attack to reason may said that it was highly likely that russia was behind the attack on the script take a lesson. called salute about the identity of the culprit no other country has a combination of the capability the intent and the motive to carry out such an act . alternative explanation yet but. this is. a t.v. close even keel to forgive. the global explosions that's what the politicians have said but the head of the government here in the u.k. that was analyzing and identifying the sample of the nerve agent used in the attack
3:37 am
porton down the head of that government lab hasn't been able to confirm the origin of the nerve agent itself used in soulsby and now some news outlets are saying that these revelations show that a whole wrong of countries have had a sample of this nerve agent for nearly two decades now and as one of the newspapers that published this investigation has said this british theory that the poison could only come from russia shares unjustified confidence former german intelligence officer run iraq believes the german media articles are credible. lee reports as far as i been reading it then there should be go into some other reports sunspots of if. it's in particular this research group ok present some big misses
3:38 am
were prepared to talk about it who participated in this operation so it sounds plausible to me. all the more because germany had already had the best german government you cretinous knew tried to acquire. chemical weapons will do. and has the ingredients for this horrific stuff can be bored really almost everywhere if you have the formula all you need is a secure billboard so basically it could be done anywhere. facebook has launched a scheme to prevent election related propaganda and misinformation it's a joint project with the atlantic council a washington based think tank this will help increase the number of eyes and ears we have working despite potential abuse in our service in they've been asked to more effectively identify gaps in our systems preempt obstacles and ensure that
3:39 am
facebook place a positive role during elections all around the world but it landed council calls itself a nonpartisan institution but it's being criticized for giving corporate donors privileged access to u.s. and foreign government officials some of its biggest contributors are as manufacturers and all giants and critics describe it as a platform for neo conservatives libertarian politician arvind virus says the partnership will plant fire on facebook. this is a clear response to the fact that americans are growing increasingly disenfranchise with the nonsensical military propaganda we don't believe this military nonsense anymore and more and more americans want to get out of nato entirely and so you have now the atlantic council whose entire mission is to maintain and grow organizations like nato and obviously including nato and now they're getting access to our social media security but they are not really intellectually neutral they're
3:40 am
not politically neutral they risk clearly have an agenda of expansion of military aggression of encouraging other countries to do proxy military aggression so they're certainly not unbiased so i think this is going to backfire against facebook this is not what the american people want we don't want more propaganda telling us that we need military overreach we want less military overreach we want twitter users are accusing the network of stifling free speech after the launch of new algorithms to block offensive content the changes are part of a project called thing healthy conversation introduced in one which well critics say the scheme has been poorly executed. twitter is going to show do by many accounts who have been full of all talk to people who violate the terms of service what a brilliant plan so now twitter is planning to censor any tweets reported for abuse
3:41 am
really no check to see if the tweet was actually abusive whatever that means. dear traitor in jack i never complain about how you run your business but your new hiding treats passy has me concerned about censorship i understand your goal is to stop bullying but i found a blog feature works incredibly well for that it's very difficult to differentiate between people such as myself who campaign around privacy and freedom of speech and people who are equally passionate about some sort of less worthy topics maybe hate or whatever and the algorithms at this moment in time haven't actually been that effective in some of the recent job and there have been some very senior bloggers some very senior influencers on social media who've been caught up in just about as myself included unless we can have a little bit more. you're actually started feeling free speech.
3:42 am
the syrian government has agreed to me un officials to discuss a new constitution for the war torn country that announcement was made after talks between presidents bashar assad and letting a person in southern russia. go as more. first of all nobody knew about this before an evening announcement by vladimir putin spokesman so in the last six months the leaders of russia and syria met three times twice here and tsotsi and once in syria and in all cases nobody doubts that the rendezvous was happening in advance now this time they were talking about fighting terrorism and also further political steps to end the syrian civil war most notably vladimir putin said that soon he is expecting syria to be completely free of all foreign armed forces the syrian president bashar assad said that he will send
3:43 am
a delegation to the u.n. to become a part of the so-called constitutional committee and geneva it was at the syrian national dialogue congress here in saatchi that the delegates a few months ago first came up with the idea to create this new u.n. mechanism the constitutional committee was meant to get everyone on board the syrian government and as many elements of the syrian opposition as possible but previously damascus refused to take part obviously the goal is to reform the syrian constitution well it seems on thursday here and tsotsi a lot of are putin convinced bosh are assad to change his mind. some african countries have long promoted themselves to safari holiday destinations catering to one off travel that just went like this.
3:44 am
but the reality is often less rosy safari parks have being looking to expand their territory sometimes claiming land from indigenous communities and you study from a think tank called the oakland institute has found that twenty thousand people were evicted from their homes in the serengeti last year park rangers in tanzania reportedly burned down their homes in august and september and some of those affected have been telling their stories. we got to come out of the fight. or not we got the model what's got up like that across up because i want to forget that a woman up that was when i met. about thirty. women are white that there are no we
3:45 am
don't but i forgot that while you're. on the go way to come on this human are not to get on a. you know the fans are. close and yes there was a sub. quarter why do i. need to know my guys in. the hope that when i. go to those. who are mom then the one visit to one is over people would assess come over and i'm not religious lation and landlubbers in the name of conservation the government or tanzania has been dispossessed in the indigenous kluges these legislations have been used to be sickly deny them aside their access to grazing lands their access to water holes but not just that it has allowed some of the safari companies that are operating in the area to conclude that the local officials who have intimated who are arrested
3:46 am
and beaten in the villages because they have tried to use their ancestral lands we also find that they have been violent addictions and these are all being carried out in the name of pre-ordained tourism or some of the noise and in the absence of food it has led to widespread hunger managership and disease the kind of disposition that the report priest you shills that the again not just be forced out of their homes and lands with their messiah been forced out of existence. one of the firms implicated in the report is thompson safaris which denies any wrongdoing direct to rick thomson told us media that the allegations are simply untrue but local activists tell a different story i had to look at that government reading your tent assented i mean the tourism and of all the borderline or all this is because they're you know the projects you know the social economy. income so if the pastoralist were
3:47 am
at endemol their lives but they don't have access to this so sis and we look up on resumes look about. it is i tried to explain look for example what happened back in london six governments have mixed it to people from this hour and five times and yet the pastoralists but it was the whole soul much of our nation and the world where the houses well there aren't you know all so. excited to go. there was no in the planning well. you know when you live another place you wrong you have structure you have well social services and now you hold it just into the forests so if you ask me well i must say how black market place like or. where they out you where you've been their whole. how about could that lines at the top of the hour but for more
3:48 am
news in the meantime. you have stance is not only an apartment they cannot be a partner to be a broker they have taken the seeds of an attorney out of getting the solution they throw in this region to what is known as this extremists in this region have been strengthened and bravado them and by this i mean again as a these engines and actions more than any time before moderates and got on board people like me have been destroyed but it was such actions such fascism such opposite being excited by israel and israel getting away with it i think this is opening the gates of hell in this region.
3:49 am
i can tell you i have killed thirteen people with missile strikes and there are one thousand six hundred and twenty six unnamed enemies that were killed there. all the missions that i completed and i know that i know that for a fact and i know each of these persons was a human being they had a family they had friends they had lives and we ended the possibilities are endless . it was in the nineteen fifties that our secretary of state john foster dulles proclaimed our policy is global.
3:50 am
we started as a continental empire by clearing out the native peoples and other foreign forces and we became an overseas empire by taking islands in various parts of the world and then after the second world war we began to a global empire now we are playing on the whole bill your type. the united states has always had
3:51 am
a variety of tools to use and its attacks on other countries from economic sanctions are are often just the beginning another thing you like to do is place some military pressure on the countries a talking about and there has to be an effort to demonize that country and the leader of that country particularly in our own caress and in the press of that leader's own country. americans love to think there were intervening in other countries to overthrow evil people and if that's true you have to make the person look evil. in nineteen fifty one outer bands came to power in guatemala after being a looked at by the people in washington the u.s. president received the usual courtesies of a state visit. years ago i wrote a book about how the united states overthrew the government of guatemala in
3:52 am
nineteen fifty four. the case of the water is a great example of american call for action during the period of the one nine hundred fifty s. when covert action was at a peak. the country lost its legitimate government and hundreds of people lost their lives. those when you see a plea your to say that as he says she will do was. to. give
3:53 am
them the i don't them on the look in their own yeah beyond at the moment the memory of them. but i mean for one bill really didn't know you so mind you but. at this time a giant american company the united fruit company owned a huge amount. somewhere. in. the not so that way what you say is just being held vacant while many guatemalans are starving because they didn't have the land to grow food. i.e. not down we remember gabby and i don't drive down enough by our own and in order
3:54 am
that i. know i'm a miss. no one month and i didn't know when. and get those little three calls. i don't know what to get. yeah of all of them to come as you know but going to at the end of. that and now in atlanta. and it's going up and. so a president arbenz a league watermelon government decreed a land reform program this land reform program would have forced the united fruit company to sell its own used land so it could be divided up and given to poor families the united fruit company was very unhappy with this they went to the united states government the u.s. government then concluded that these socialist orientation of guatemala was
3:55 am
dangerous to the united states. gave. them in three hundred go. up dramatically apart become in. their home particularly good we were going to pick the fruit over here i won't go to you because we're not. going to come in from people kind of gives and i get a reminder of that. later civil war broke out something like two hundred thousand people were killed in that conflict over more than thirty years.
3:56 am
3:57 am
our. research and go see one. famous will see impacts you still feel the urge to steal our people i will spoil the story dear little boys and then there. is. so the first one is. that. the government that we don't like shows bad faith by bothering an american company . then we convince ourselves that that company is our geo political enemy. then we sell the intervention. as humanitarian intervention we only do it we don't do anything for ourselves in fact we sacrifice ourselves. for the good of others.
3:58 am
3:59 am
and if it had that much time i don't really. have. and now he attained and that you have to be difficult. as a man a see a see. them as that all off. medina to because he will from the innocent of her feet no american will come in and walk on the men and the house and allah at the husband then he. should move me yes it's not cool back to be in the middle of the field both had their good but that no one with a wayne woman and i them and you should look on the libby.
4:00 am
live. we thought of him as a bad leader one we couldn't control now he looked like he might be about to carry out all human rights atrocity so we decided it was time to participate in an operation to overthrow gadhafi and in that operation of course he was killed. so we succeeded in the short term goal get rid of gadhafi and deposed that government but then what happened we didn't have a plan for what was going to come next we thought that maybe by magic some new peaceful regime would urge everybody would cooperate and things of this together.
