local correspondent him daddy was on one of the but it's. so we were here ten am says the morning and there were a lot of possum jewish that were just trying to leave on the boats seventeen cost injures including two injured palestinians from the great march of return and others were the people holding these us students and some people that have been living under bill kate for more than eleven years we went to the sea with eight not a cold miles. what happened as we saw the war ships going very close to these two boats that had all these pub passengers this is how the story developed. so now we're in the middle of the sea as you see there are tens of tens of goats take it to the sea to turn out we know that there we are going to sail three out of the line of where and not a good one as it is the last point we can we can reach with at palestinians are continuing to create much of return events and they're continuing the protests but
5:31 pm
here today in another way this is more of it and attempt to break this seize up has been imposed on gaza strip for more than eleven years. so now we're entering the floor not of the law is that you start to see is right you warships that. go closer to the palestinian boats that they started asking them to leave the sea would still not clear were trying to get closer and to see what's happening but all we see is is right you warships go closer as big as very close to the palestinian protester boats policy against one wants to go back to the seaport does something big happens with it now we started to feel that it's getting a bit dangerous at what's happened at that time that we went back to the seaport
5:32 pm
because it was very dangerous neighbor. forces arrested and controlled. both that's what word learns from the goddess report so the great march of return. are continuing palestinians are continuing to protest and they state that they won't stop until they achieve their demands and until the bloke a on the gaza strip that has been imposed for eleven years is released at least one hundred fifteen palestinians were killed thousands were injured in the great march of return but today the palestinians had a new way of protesting where in the past month they were protesting on the land near the fence and today the palestinians are protesting on the boats near the sea israeli forces said hamas was using people to carry out quote a propaganda operation and breach the blockade the i.d.f. said they're wrong so ready to provide needed medical assistance to the palestinians who will later be returned to.

one of the leaders of italy's failed coalition government is reportedly started collecting signatures in favor of directly electing the country's president after the current president. blocks the coalition's nomination for a euro skeptic finance minister italy is now set to be led by an interim prime minister the head of the northern league party one of the members of the failed coalition thinks that this may have been due to pressure from brussels surely the. voters have been left disappointed in the past. you couldn't win an election create a coalition put together. a plan for reforms and a ruling cabinet but turns out you still don't get to govern well that's if you're in the e.u. and you have a euro skeptic agenda if you are president i asked for the ministry and authorities of political figure was not seen as supporting a line that could provide from the. essentially this means that the majority of
5:34 pm
voters who between them opted for the five star movement and northern league two parties with an anti e.u. agenda in march actually don't get to decide the president awaits a red card because he doesn't like one proposed minister and key to political crisis possible snap elections is this really how democracy is supposed to work. find a constitution the government can't commit to changing. this is a limited sovereignty it's a piece of democracy there is a way brussels hasn't shied away from warning the new italian government against disobeying the e.u. rule book and it looks like it's got its way no matter what the tally in voters want it and when has that happened before oh yes back in two thousand and five a referendum was held on whether or not to adopt a european constitution here in france as well as in the netherlands voters
5:35 pm
rejected the idea yet despite that clear unease the e.u. pushed ahead with branding it as the lisbon treaty three years later which contained many of the changes the constitution had attempted to introduce but this time the majority of the public didn't have a say because parliament simply ratified it island the only e.u. member which stuck with the referendum rejected in this been treaty. that was so didn't go down well with brussels but i believe we should not rush to conclusions believe the truth is alive and we should know try to find a solution and despite a clear fifty three percent no vote the irish will back at the polls just sixteen months later for what must have felt like day finally they got the
5:36 pm
answer it was looking for yes those you were supposed to jump for joy what about greece the mediterranean country drowning in a sea of its own right it's a vote is decisively rejected the terms of an international bailout in two thousand and fifteen. i would like to say that the greek people made a historic and brave choice responds well to the existing john logan europe but democracy worked in an unexpected way despite the greeks saying no to a sturdy government a venture the did agree to a painful bailout plan but what about the dutch who rejected plans by the e.u. to sign an association agreement with ukraine back in two thousand and sixteen. if you called cannot just be ratified we have to take into account this no vote. well despite that event brussels went ahead and did it only way so while many in
5:37 pm
the may vote against the blocs hirings it seems that the e.u. prefer to have its own way with god less the elite made a decision and now it's sixty to seventy years ago that in one nine hundred fifty four you know the start of the whole thing was the european union and there is nothing you can do against the european union is it's gotten it's going nothing to do with democracy it's not it's not decided by the people there's no european people european union works as of a cartel of the governments of the e.u. governments you know they get together they make the solutions and i don't think there's even a. democratic spirit behind it you know it's just stuff this is what we feel leaked it's not we the people other watching us internationally backed up with morning sentiments.
5:38 pm
china says they're going to buy a lot more stuff from the u.s. and trump is going to fact i mean is that weighing into the minutiae of trade deals . president has done that i can recall usually they just pay their broad stroke and hope for the best so he's actually getting into the details of trade deals. with lawmakers manufactured to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the famous merry go round. nor middle of the room sick.
5:39 pm
again now the polish defense ministry has asked washington to permanently deploy thousands of u.s. troops in the country poland says it's directly appealed to the u.s. after nato ignored a similar request for almost twenty years. this presence is of great importance because it deters the adverse three us forces are the only ones in the world that have the ability to defend their positions against the adverse through. ok we're done with course he joins us now in the studio to discuss this a bit further good evening don we've just got three of them perhaps one of the motors. that behind the podium while the requests for the military base actually came from the polish defense ministry and it was titled proposal for a u.s.
5:40 pm
permanent presence in poland it actually outlined the government's willingness for to shell out two billion dollars for the construction of this base as well as suggestions for locations for the base itself housing facilities for the soldiers and medical hospitals there now there have already been a couple reactions to this move from several different countries first and foremost being russia the kremlin spokes person dmitri peskov said that the move would actually mean inevitably lead to russian countermeasures and that it was expansionist on the other hand the president of nato's presidential problem entry assembly excuse me gave a statement saying that foreign military presence actually affords countries power for political dialogue so let's take a listen to what he said. we know. now
5:41 pm
it's kind of hard to see how permanent u.s. military base in poland would afford the polish government any more political pull than it already has because well first of all there's four thousand nato troops stationed throughout poland as well as the baltic states lithuania latvia estonia and these are actually these troops are on rotation. from every now and again and another thing is that there is military drills going on throughout europe especially on russia's doorstep almost every month of the year one one for example is called tops and this is a u.s. led maritime exercise involves the participation of seventeen nations five thousand seven hundred ground troops forty two ships and even two submarines but actually this exercises is basically pocket change in comparison to another exercise that's
5:42 pm
scheduled to come up it's called anaconda and it also takes place in poland it happens every two years but what specific about this year is that there's going to be ten thousand military troops involved from over ten allied nations of poland and that's all according to nato as website so it's kind of difficult to see how a permanent u.s. military base might. afford the polish government even more power than it already has with these troops ok thanks thanks jim for the update i was told caught it for us. i. now another day and another scare story ahead of football's will come here in russia british tabloids are claiming that russian hooligans are threatening to kill gay and transgender fans and see a chill as more details. as the world cup is just around the corner it seems to be scaremongering gold war from some of the tabloid newspapers here in the u.k. essentially spreading the message of don't go or else and discussing all sorts of
5:43 pm
possible horrific scenarios that could take place among the one of just many of the latest stories being discussed are legit death threats being made against the community and this is by far not the first time that something like this is being discussed we've seen headlines talk about things such as russia about to unleash its hooligans how the police are quote thuggish in russia how there is a threat of being whipped by cossack horseman during the world cup this summer as well as talk of racism in hopper's potentially breaking into your phones through wife i when you're there as a fan and while all of this whipping up a frenzy is unraveling we've been hearing officials from both sides really in russia as well as here in the u.k. say that everything is going to be ok among those people was britain's top football police chief who was speaking at a foreign affairs select committee hearing who said basically russia is on top of
5:44 pm
it and the same message came from the england football association but we've been engaging the last two years into the foreign office pool so the f.a. and i say to try to see those reassurances from the russian authorities with a great number of meetings with them and every time with them there is a consistent reassurance that the spear a she scored a say at the shows bush are the best of the disability post security team have been impressed with what they see on the ground industriously. particularly organizations going to the confederations cup last year that you think you know goals for the school well the foreign office has also been releasing certain instructions that have been playing down and he worry about what could happen during the world cup they have said that among other things since two thousand. the sixteen five matches involving british teams have taken place in russia and those went without any trouble and of course the fact that british police and russian police have been cooperating ahead of the world cup and british police will in fact
5:45 pm
also be present on the ground as the world cup unravels. ok let's bring in tells now he's an england football fan and author of the book too we're queer and we should be here and you're very welcome it's good to have you on firstly before we talk about some of the british media coverage just tell us about your book then and what inspired you to write it. well i'm a black gay football fan and have been for thirty years out here in britain and one of the chapters involves my trip to see spurs play c.s.k. moscow during the champions league two years ago. where i was hosted by the c.s.k. fans against racism so what was your experience then because if we believe what we see in the british press it wasn't a good one. but i can only go my personal experience and my personal experience was one of safety feeling safe and feeling secure we managed even to be interviewed on
quote
5:46 pm
the pitch that the new stadium c.s.k. with a rainbow flag. oh i didn't need to hide my identity while i was there and i hope it will be the same for the fans travelling to the world cup and of course the l g b t community in russia who will be supporting it so how do you react then or what are your feelings when you see these sort of stories appear in the british press you know that russian hooligans are supposedly threatening to kill gay fans that might come over. well i think football fans always take with more than a pinch of salt what they see in the sun and some of the other tabloids we all remember how they reported hillsborough for example so i always take them with a pinch of salt there have been some abuse on social media as there will be on these occasions and the guidance issued by both fiendish football association and
5:47 pm
the football supporters federation will be strictly adhered to. and i hope that we will get a tournament that is free from violence hooliganism and any abuse whether it be racist homophobic or massage mystic i sent me hope that will happen and i also understand you. taken steps positive steps three to be in touch with the russian football union is that right at the last european championships. in the last european championships i was proud to be engaged by football supporters europe to. train fans and volunteers at the twenty six tournament and but if the russian f.a. and the russian supporters' federation was involved in that i really hope that we can focus not on. hooligans but on the legacy that the world cup will have
5:48 pm
fall russian l g b t football fans and i hope that that will secure a legacy that is more open transparent and fair to both the community in russia and the football association in russia as well so you coming over to russia then daryl in a couple of weeks time i'm afraid i can't arm a key mainland fan but. expenses means that i can't make it so i'll be watching from home i'll be hoping that england do well and i'll be hoping that there is no repeat of the trouble of english football fans of amsterdam and of what happened in the last england russia game in euro twenty sixteen and i hope there won't be any incidences of those coming to an i hope that the l g b t community in russia who will be out in numbers supporting their team and others will be able to have a safe secure and positive experience. there really nice to tell you times are
5:49 pm
coming on to r.t. that i know england football fan thank you. so that's new so far today will have more as usual in half an. i like skies are. this is the kaiser report hopefully. i just want to follow up a little bit on the last episode we did because here's a headline related to dead unicorns why the end is coming soon for the biggest tech
5:50 pm
bubble we've ever seen expect to see more dead unicorns unicorns of course in this context are companies startups worth more than a billion dollars there's like one hundred couple hundred of them in the united states but he says about over half of them are actually fifty percent overvalued this is keith wright a professor of villanova school of business so what we should be seeing that uniform and saying well you know the change for returns over the past ten years as i just read every man zero migrated into the startup space on the unicorn space but the liquidity never came to the aftermarket never came the cash flow never came so now they all have to go over the cliff of the abyss proving once again the world is flat of course there are eighteen these are dead unicorns held by silicon valley investors they have deep pockets and of course they could afford to perhaps lose all of this but they're competing with china which has i guess
5:51 pm
a bigger market but also more capital to work with and you know they're in the race to see who can create more monopolistic sort of positions of course these unicorn holders from silicon valley have donald trump to crush competition which was crushed and now that brought. china to the trade table there is supposedly negotiating trump keeps on almost getting a trade deal with china and then backing out by a tweet so we don't know but we do know that trade war averted china vows to buy more from the u.s. but truce will take time the consensus follows two days of negotiations between teams led by the chinese vice premier lew he and u.s. treasury secretary steven. so time is agreed to buy more u.s. agricultural goods. and energy products and this is supposed to close that what two hundred a three hundred seventy five billion dollar trade gap with the united states there's china refer to these startups as unicorns or maybe dragons of the
5:52 pm
unicorn as a global thing i wonder you know it's middle as if you really have to ask based on something but you know i'm not sure but yeah ok so china says are going to buy a lot more stuff from the u.s. and so trump is having an effect i mean is that weighing into the minutia of trade deals which president has done that i can recall usually they just paint a broad stroke and hope for the best so he's actually getting into the details of trade deals that goes oh you do have to recognize that in the west we're not seeing the coverage the media coverage and the actual power that china has on the ground over in asia because i have seen reports that the reason why why did why did trump to the extraordinary thing of saying we need to come to the table because he lost all these jobs we don't want to destroy seventy five thousand jobs and we don't want to destroy c.t.e. and they apologized well apparently there were also u.s.
5:53 pm
goods piling up at the ports over in china and china has a huge buying power and exporting power and all these u.s. companies have massive factories over in china so they have a lot more leverage than we can possibly see here because of course our media doesn't cover it because they have a more important story that their little conspiracy theory that they're focused on nevertheless there are you know that china apparently has a lot of negotiating power in terms of twenty eighteen elections midterm elections coming up in a just a few short months as places like iowa and nebraska where they were really squealing about the impact on their agricultural exports some of these places you know their their number one. destination is china they also live four to five trillion dollars in reserves more than a trillion or so in dollars the dollar still world reserve currency so yeah they've got a lot of operating leverage on the ground but a macro economically speaking the u.s.
5:54 pm
federal reserve bank bank of new york still has the ability to crush them at a moment's notice if we so choose their basically their equally powered the world's largest debtor the world's largest creditor they are equally powered they're equally powerful and that is a great huge fight that is to fight the next few decades what is not a great power which is no longer a great power is the united kingdom versus germany fighting the euro european union versus trying to come up with the brakes a deal i have to headlines here this is from bloomberg and they often to this i actually printed another article but they change the headline at all the time but boris johnson warns may to get on with it and deliver brags that so he's warning that she has to get on with it he wants to become the new prime minister which probably makes more sense of a clown and charge like trees amaze us ineffective you might as well have an ineffective clown because we have
5:55 pm
a clown here italy has clowns everybody has clowns this is new policy but the u.k. has admitted that they're going to have to pay a huge divorce bill and this breaks it exit if it ever happens this somebody they break it did well is figuring out how to op back in to various deals that the break sort of gave them the right to opt out rights just then added something thirty thousand more civil servants in the u.k. and that's the whole point of bragg's it is to increase the size of government under satcher the mandate was to take g.d.p. and address it so that government was a less a percentage of g.d.p. braise it just reverses that whole trend it makes the government now a bigger part of g. pay which is highly anti-growth so i mean i'll read you some of . the exact quotes he's the foreign minister of foreign secretary for the united kingdom some may as the prime minister in case you don't know
5:56 pm
a lot of people may not hear much about the united kingdom but he said that outward free trade in countries what they want to hear from us is that we are getting on with it with confidence and breo in zap. so over that's not a clown does he know these that's a given it's going to. squirting water so i like your idea that the u.k. needs a clown station to compete with the berlusconi's and then only the trump clownish behavior in america and other global clowns i mean to compete in this global economy you need a clown force johnson's caliber he's a world class clown well if you don't have the authority in the power to be a state's person then you might as well be a clown because you've got to compete for global attention right so johnson's comments however are his strongest since teresa mayes team agreed last week on a controversial compromise that could keep the u.k. tied to e.u. trade rules for years after the divorce the proposal got
5:57 pm
a frosty reception from brussels and prompted jacob response to commands enough conservative lawmakers to engineer a leadership challenge to say he was losing faith and tree some may but the united kingdom is part of the body of the european economy as a seventy three trillion dollar trading block you know the whole brags it is like your liver deciding to separate from your body and to say we're no longer part of the body were the independent liver and by the way everything that comes in and out of the liver we now have to introduce another oregon called the deliberate exit blipper attacks and then oh wait a minute that doesn't make any sense so we have to reverse all that there's no way to separate the u.k. from europe it cannot be done it will not be done if it does it's in name only they may change. the color of their passport but you cannot you cannot separate the two boris johnson in their delusional when we were just in the york there were two guys walking behind me downtown you know the financial district and i heard them one guy
5:58 pm
complaining that his office was moving to frankfurt because their office in london was closing down because of this break set thing so i get another headline here about the u.k. economy it is it has been hit definitely by this whole breaks it drained man who knows what's happening whether or not breaks it happens i think people will still be talking about pricks in twenty thirty years' time when it won't have actually happen nevertheless landlords left with four shards skyscrapers worth of empty space in the high street bloodbath this big companies like jamie's italian all of these chains. they have a whole bunch of them listed here but the fact is that in figures compiled for the evening standard colliers international forecasts that the blood bath and the retail and restaurant sectors will leave at least six point two million square feet in the u.k. vacant this year of that six hundred thirty thousand square feet isn't london of
5:59 pm
the property agent examined statistics from the local data company and goad portal it looked at stores which have closed either because firms have collapsed or restructured using a company voluntary arrangement a move which allows businesses to quit stores or seek rent cuts so they using the c.v.s. as they're called so what is it called company voluntary agreement and they're able to get out of all these leases and landlords are left holding the bill on these overpriced properties and in a shrinking economy and with huge business rates on these small companies that the u.k. government is no longer going to be able to collect the whole. this idea being independent it defies one hundred years of integrate. and to europe that it's absurd i understand that everyone likes to be independent but it's never ever ever going to happen in any meaningful sense. it's just ever going to happen of course
6:00 pm
these new rules came out in the e.u. regarding privacy for example and all these tech companies had to change everything and i just noticed that over the weekend because we've lived in the united kingdom for so long i have had dozens and dozens and dozens of e-mails from all these british companies saying to to new european privacy directives here's our new policy on privacy so it's like there are all these just online about people throwing their computers out the window because of this hassle but nevertheless they're having to abide by these european regulations anyway in order to stay part of that you're the customs union better member of the new passports of the new color has been manufactured by a french company well we're going to take a little bit of a break here don't go away much more coming your way.
