certainly not any criticism of any of israel's extreme use of force by anyone in the trumpet ministration hamas terrorists backed by iran have incited attacks against israeli security forces and infrastructure so israel is not responsible for shooting mostly peaceful palestinian protesters some of whom were just children shot down by their own soldiers but if you're a place israel with syria suddenly nikki haley's heart bleeds for the dead in far less clear cut situations. yesterday morning. we awoke to pictures to children being carried in the arms of desperate parents yes all the talk about human rights does not apply to palestinian protesters they do not get america's support because they're not protesting in the right country. big protests in iran the people finally getting wise to how the money and wealth is being stolen

and squandered on terrorism looks like they will not take it any longer the u.s. is watching very closely for human rights violations with israel all bets are off on world press freedom day heather now it was all about championing the rights of journalists that is until somebody mention gaza we see all too often that journalists continue to take great risks to pursue this important work would you also condemn the recent deaths of journalists journalists in the gaza strip look there are unfortunately a lot of journalists who die all around the world i'm not going to be able to list every single death of a journalist and we understand that israel has a right to defend itself back in april yasser move taja palestinian photo journalist who was wearing a jacket clearly marked press was shot by israeli sniper now if this was intentional it could possibly constitute a war crime by israel but heather nauert thinks it was self-defense either way she doesn't have time to talk about every journalist who's been killed and apparently

his death doesn't fit in with washington's agenda caleb mop and artsy new york. on wednesday north korea threaten to scupper highly anticipated talks between kim jong un and donald trump is furious about ongoing joint military war games conducted by washington and south korea. i. i i there are exercises that are legal there are planned well well in advance we will continue to go ahead and plan the meeting between president trumping kim jong un well the war games come at a time when pyongyang and soul are enjoying improved relations with north korea is also angry about remarks by top u.s. officials saying that it could suffer the same fate as that of libya. but i guess they have looked at how the last deal between pyongyang and washington worked out.

we all know what carrot and stick diplomacy is but these these goes beyond that way beyond they will get private capital the comes in north korea is desperately in need of energy support electricity for their people we can deliver that and as i said earlier this week we can create conditions for real economic prosperity for the north korean people that will rival that of the south talk about extremes not so long ago people were seriously talking about nuclear war those with a penchant for the dramatic really made the best of the opportunity north korea. not make it work threats to the united states. they will be met with fire fury. like the world has never seen well north koreans must be sighing in relief instead of fire and fury they're now getting the carrot will they

have to do is give up nukes nice let's just hope they have short memories so i think iran is on notice and they are going to have to make a choice are they willing to go down the path which i think ultimately will lead to greater prosperity and security for iran. giving up the acquisition of nuclear weapons or will they continue down a path that is going to lead to confrontation or quit the radians gave up on nukes dismantle their program complied absolutely with every requirement in the end it didn't matter they gave up nukes and then america took back the whole perspire ity thing we'll see how we do with the rand probably we want to very well with them but that's ok too they've got to understand. life

because i don't think they do understand life when life gives you lemons make lemonade so long as trump doesn't take the lemons too were godless perhaps this time things will be different iran was a one off right wrong i am pleased that the united states and north korea yesterday reached agreement this agreement is good for the united states good for our allies and good for the safety of the entire world in one nine hundred ninety four bill clinton made a deal with north korea north korea could tells its nuclear program and the u.s. builds two nuclear reactors for it to compensate energy loss gives it a half a million tons of fuel per year and normalize relations they never built the nuclear reactors they never sent any fuel and they never signed an official peace agreement you're seeing a pattern here right perspire it seems to be the carrot except what no one seems

the realizes it's for dangling not for tasting that just life they've got to understand. life because i don't think they do understand life. supporters of the parties that look likely to form italy's next. government voting on their proposed manifesto the five star movement has already confirmed that its members are in favor of the program and if approved by all it would pave the way for the formation of a government eleven weeks after the election. we did something new for the history of the italian republic we outlined the program point by point and we have to respect. the heroes skeptic and likely coalition partners have outlined several key areas ranging from pension and tax reforms to a major review of treaties with the e.u. it also includes a new approach to the refugee crisis italy is currently experiencing and to russia

viewing moscow as a partner instead of a threat to. the contracts for its elite and literally in its. list to everyone even the only european level from now on. if the reality i hope to change the cetacean the two young resourceful and brave men. i am voting yes i vote yes although i'm not the least member because i think this is immediately has to change well thanks for joining us so far for the weekly about halfway through it right now here on the program still to come about twenty thousand people reportedly in tanzania that story in the mix of the weekly in a moment. we have to judge countries and leaders at directives. so we need more objective but

the reality is. you know media tries to give the facts but also leave. their worldview so this is where social media and direct communication comes in unfortunately it's sometimes called fake news or something but it's sometimes actually a different worldview not just fake news by powerful people. but politicians to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and she. wanted. to go on to be the first to see what the before. and people. interested always in the water. should.

with us today africa promoted itself as a safari holiday destination catering not least to well off travellers through advertisements like this. though it appears the other reality on the ground is often less rosy safari parks have been looking to expand their territories according to a new study has led the government of the east african state of tanzania to mass vixens of indigenous communities fictions began in the early two thousand and attentions rose off to some twenty thousand people were allegedly left homeless last august and september alone with nearly six thousand homes deliberately damaged

some of those affected have told us the story. but we've got to come. across because i want to get that. you know we don't know why you. wanted to go. on a. you know your son luke arms are. close and yet here was a sub. to him why do. you need to know my cousin. not from the fukushima to not. due to her. mom or any one visit to one is what would be good cisco moving the. land numbers in the name of. this business in the. indigenous kluges

these legislations have been used to be simply denying them aside their access to grazing lands the access to water holes but not just that it has allowed some of the suppliers in companies that are operating in the area to conclude that the officials who have intimate it were arrested and beaten in the villages because they have tried to use their ancestral lands we also find that they have been violent in big chickens and these are all being carried out in the name of the already tourism arsenal dinars and in the absence of food it has led to widespread hunger managership and disease the kind of disposition that the report previous to shows that there are there not to be forced out of their homes and that is where the messiah i mean for starters existence. the head of one company probe the thomson safaris strongly denies being involved in the evictions as director rick

thompson adds that they also work with local communities and the government to improve access to water however activists on the ground they do tend to tell a slightly different story. if i know for example what happened back in london six governments addicted to people from going sour in private times and yet the customer lists but it was the old lowlands of our nation and now. where the house is well you know well the logical. child to go. there was little in the planning well. you know when you live in the place you wrong you have structure you have little social status and now you hold it just to the forests so if you ask me well i must say how black market place is like don't let me out you when you've been there whole. the rift between the e.u. and the us is deepening over the iran nuclear deal the e.u.

use energy chief has reassured to iran that the bloc remains committed to the agreement the statement came during his first official visit to iran since donald trump pulled the u.s. out of the nuclear accord the european union did we rue the day it's now announcement of the united states listen prompt with it all from the joint comprehensive long. full nuclear deal. there was absolutely unanimity among its because of the government that union will defend the seventy men will stick to the commitments make them to be seventy members the e.u. energy chief also said brussels aims to maintain the growth of a trade between european and iranian companies or to ensure this the bloc decided to trigger legislation that would allow e.u. firms to recover losses incurred by u.s. sanctions on iran there's also instructed the european investment bank to

facilitate the e.u. investment in iran now the new us sanctions on iran could mean huge financial losses for a number of large european companies which signed contracts with their. after the nuclear deal was struck and twenty fifteen and the economic embargo on the country was lifted now saeed mohammad marandi thinks america's a withdrawal from the deal shows a lack of respect for its allies the american sanctions are very broad. and very threatening and it is interesting that the united states. zero respect for its own allies even european countries who have always stuck with the united states in the united states is threatening them with sanctions so not only have the united states the europeans in the face after tearing up the nuclear agreement but now they are threatening these very same country with the british the french and the germans along with everyone else with punishment they do not buy american demands i

think this is a very important moment in international relations. russia has issued a diplomatic memo to ukraine raising concerns about the safety of russian journalists in the country this comes after security forces raided the kiev offices of a russian media group and detained its director. who's in charge of ria novosti as ukraine bureau was detained on shoes day for alleged treason his relatives have not heard from him since his arrest now off to ski was arrested ukrainian security services also broke into the offices of ria novosti ukraine and their searches last at more than eight hours and the houses of journalists working for the agency will also as well now there's been a high level condemnations of its actions many organizations are accusing the ukrainian government open attack on a media freedom and demanding release and we discussed this with our rachel dunbar

deputy director of the europe and central asia division of human rights watch she says complaints over media freedoms in the in the ukraine where they are on the rise. under no circumstances should the government be criminalizing speech and media activities that groundlessly and ukraine i think this is out of line with ukraine's these raids and detentions are out of line with ukraine's obligations to protect media freedoms there's a there's an obligation to provide some kind of transparency about what exactly is grounding treason charges that's an extremely serious serious charge that carries a hefty prison sentence so they get a cut they need to come forward with what it is that's causing the grounds for this charge because working for you know working for ria novosti or having a russian passport are not grounds for her treason charge we and other organizations have have been expressing i think more frequently concerns about

media freedoms in ukraine. thanks for sharing some of your sunday with us here at r.t. international or many more stories in the weekly in about half an hour. just manufacture come sentenced to public will. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the financial merry go round to listen to the one percent. we can all middle of the room see. the real news is. for a world cup twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of all time but there was one more question and by the way who's going to be our

to exist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. here in kiev in recent days it might dawn independence square has turned into a full scale war zone. full clancy's in ukraine's capital kiev. there is absolutely no you shall start to tell what you are caricature anybody least you wouldn't. do. now on the brink of a civil war at least seventy dead so far and the death toll rising it you can

allude you. a new music stockholm and. what we saw here today was a revolution. but it was initially but it's going to have invested over five billion dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals with. us from when you go to go to. nato has expanded into thirteen countries up to the borders of russia thirteen countries. focus has to be on not allowing myself to turn into a hot wall between ukraine and russia. but . that the team of boys in the city would just look when the new buildings to be truthful.

mum eleven cutler little eleven. the mummy . ukraine. it's an ancient and proud land.

with a rich history filled with much beauty heroism and sacrifice. ukraine is a border land. a place where east meets west. this is the flag of ukraine the blue represents the sky the gold its seemingly endless fields of wheat. ukraine is a prize many have sought. and much blood spilled in the quest to possess it. ukraine has been the pathway for western powers as they attempted to conquer the east. in world war one. and world war two. and every time the

ukrainian people ended up paying the highest price for these grand games of powers . history doesn't repeat but it surely rhymes said mark twenty. if one looks closely at the history of ukraine one will notice many rhymes. being surrounded by stronger powers ukraine has needed a lot of cunning to survive and the art they truly mastered with time is the art of changing sides. in the middle of the seventeenth century ukrainian leader dunhill netsky broke a truce agreement made with poland siding more powerful russia. just over fifty years later as the russian swedish war was raging another ukrainian leader ivan mazeppa bro. the union with russia when he switched sides joining forces with the swedish invaders many times ukrainian history was written by third

parties seeking to keep the gains of a revolution at any cost russia agreed to the humiliating conditions of the breast with screechy of one thousand nine hundred eighteen which turned ukraine into a german protectorate another historical document to change the fate of ukraine was the molotov ribbentrop pact of one thousand nine hundred thirty nine one of many such agreements being signed between european countries and rising germany. attempting to protect his nation from the approaching nazi threat. joseph stalin negotiated a treaty of nonaggression with adolf hitler while promising each other piece of the soviet in german foreign ministers molotov and ribbentrop realign the map of eastern europe splitting it into german and soviet spheres of influence. no sooner had the mala tav ribbentrop pact been signed then poland was split and in

september of one nine hundred thirty nine eastern poland awoke to be western ukraine and a part of the family of soviet republics and the u.s.s.r. . but even this bold dividing of lands and nations only delayed the inevitable germany broke its promise to the u.s.s.r. . on june twenty second one thousand nine hundred forty one germany invaded the u.s.s.r. launching barbara rossa the largest military operation in world history. barbara was aiming for st petersburg moscow and kiev ukraine three destinations of major significance. ukraine with its rich lands and resources was an important industrial and economic source for the u.s.s.r.

to cut it off from the soviet union would strike a big blow indeed. for most of the soviet union the second world war was about fighting the invaders of their land. but it wasn't quite so simple for ukraine the truth is ukraine has never been a united country. when world war two broke out a large part of western ukraine's population welcomed the german soldiers as liberators from the recently forced upon them soviet rule and openly collaborated with the germans. the real scale of collaboration was not announced for many years after the war but we now know that whole divisions and battalions were formed by ukrainian collaborators such as s.s. galaxy and not to call and roll into battalions. just in the beginning of the war more than eighty thousand people from college cina region voluntarily enrolled into

division s.s. galaxian in a month and a half notorious for their extreme cruelty towards the polish jewish and russian people on the territory of ukraine. members of these military groups came mostly from the organization of ukrainian nationalists the o. un founded in one nine hundred twenty nine this organization had an ultimate goal of creating an ethnically pure independent ukraine and considered terror an acceptable tool for achieving their ends their official flag was black and red land and blood it will remain in ukraine's history long after the o. un will cease to exist in early one nine hundred forty the most radical nationalistic part of the organization of ukrainian nationalists got its own leader step on bond era severely anti semitic an anti commune. just he proclaimed an independent ukraine in one thousand nine hundred one. his german allies frowned

upon such an act of self will and it landed him in prison for nearly all the second world war not participating in the events physically. still managed to successfully spread his ideology many independent historians estimate that the zero un militia exterminated from one hundred fifty to two hundred thousand jews on ukrainian territory occupied by the germans by the end of one nine hundred forty one. the most notorious and outrageous massacre took place september twenty ninth and thirtieth nineteen forty one in babi yar kiev. of the city of kiev and its vicinity must appear on monday september twenty ninth by eight o'clock in the morning. bring documents money and valuables and also warm clothing linen cetera. they need do not follow this order and are found elsewhere

will be shot. thirty three thousand seven hundred seventy one jews were killed in this two day operation of the nazis and ukrainian militia. another outrageous massacre was carried out by the ukrainian insurgent army and the bond era faction of the organization of ukrainian nationalists in german occupied polish foligno and eastern between one nine hundred forty three and one nine hundred forty four this genocide of poles was led by me call eleven thirty five thousand to sixty thousand people in vali nya and twenty five to forty thousand eastern galaxia fell victim to this massive ethnic cleansing operation. sensing the inevitable loss of the german troops the organization of ukrainian nationalists gave up on their former ally and began fighting equally against the germans and the soviet forces. in

january nine hundred forty three u.s.s.r. troops started pushing the nazis back liberating one part of ukraine after another . western ukraine was the last ukrainian region held by the germans finally being liberated in october of one nine hundred forty four. bands continue to wage their guerrilla war against the soviet regime carrying out bloody. raids on ukrainian villages and towns and leaving behind chaos and casualties. this war went on until the middle of the one nine hundred fifty s. when the last collaborators were either detained or fled the country. on may seventh one thousand nine hundred forty five germany unconditionally surrendered to the allies ukraine remained a part of the soviet union.
