french authorities scramble to tackle the threat of radicalization in prisons r.t. problems to europe's largest guard say it's over crowded that security is in ave quits. revery are tuning in from right around the world this hour welcome to moscow and to our to international my names you know neal good to have your company the israeli prime minister is in berlin on the first leg of his european trip where he's looking to push for the twenty fifteen iran nuclear deal to be dropped binyamin netanyahu and german chancellor angela merkel wrapped up their talks a little earlier and have spoken to journalists in the german capital peter over brings us more well benjamin netanyahu certainly being trying on this first leg of his three day european to be meeting or will be meeting with e.u.

leaders to try and convince them to follow the united states is lead and move away from the iran nuclear deal that was a very bad deal because it gave you the capacity also to develop advanced centrifuges forty times more effective in the intervening years so that could have an unlimited enrichment capacity in a few years that's not a good deal we see that iran is. devouring one country after the other and the deal also released a lot of cash for you ron well if what was said by the leaders on the podium is anything to go by we can pretty much gather that prime minister netanyahu would still anger merkel fell on deaf ears the german chancellor using her time addressing the media to say that germany and herself remain committed to trying to save the iran deal but. we have a differing opinion on the usefulness and effectiveness of the joint comprehensive plan of action that for this agreement will have more transparency that's the

position we hold in germany well this is a pretty tough sell for benjamin netanyahu obviously doesn't seem like he had any influence on angle or merkel's ideas and expect pretty much the same as he heads to london to paris that's because european leaders are upset at the move by the united states to pull out of the iran deal they cite the years of diplomatic effort that went into getting that deal in the first place the economic value of the deal to many european companies and the fact that a lot of the senior officials in europe feel let down by the united states pulling out of this so we can really expect spend to netanyahu to hear similar things as he heads off to london to paris government regrets the decision of us administration to withdraw from the deal what do we want to be bustles that would be blinded to what americans tell them we are insisting so much in keeping this agreement and we want to have economic relations with iran we've been acting already i think in the

end you know never to make sure that the mint is preserved. trump has lost the battle no one followed his decision and now we have to make good on fulfilling our obligation to. the work some concessions from angela merkel towards benyamin netanyahu she said that germany would provide diplomatic assistance with dealing with what. benyamin netanyahu called iranian meddling in certain parts of the world so benjamin netanyahu goes off to try his luck with to resume a and a manual core next but he can well imagine a similar type of reception will be awaiting him and both london and in paris as well. to another over a headline stories this hour cambridge the company at the center of a scandal for using private data for a political lens is currently being discussed in the european parliament but even as that happens yet another issue has surfaced investigative journalist blumenthal

has published documents he ses were leaked from cambridge analytic his parent company they allegedly revealed valid had been collecting data for private military contractors in yemen with more years artie's double quarter. remember the cambridge analytical scandal millions of people's personal information being mined for financial gain and influence cambridge and a little it's actually a data analytics company dedicated to one thing figuring out how to manipulate you at all costs this shadowy consulting firm right surreptitiously gained access to personal data mined from nearly eighty seven million facebook users weaponized personal data you have to look at cambridge analytics in terms of the loss of trust cambridge analytic scandal this was a huge breach of trust well according to newly leaked documents from cambridge analytical parent company as c.e.o. it wasn't just for meddling in political campaigns in two thousand and nine s.c.l. carried out a surveillance operation in yemen called project titanium it involved

a network of western trained operatives tasked with infiltrating local populations and identifying potential terror threats the nice thing focuses on identifying the groups that support or are conducive to violent jihadist recruitment project titanium was essentially a psychological profile operation against the hottest it's architects wanted to find ways to divert people away from islamised ideology field research is used to identify a clear instance pass to do something target groups those who took part were deceived and led to believe that they were part of more innocent surveys but it was for a noble cause especially at the height of military operations against al qaida the s.c.l. group was acting on behalf of our came in a us based military company they get billions of dollars from the defense department for intel operations around the globe looks like they were doing

government dirty work and not just for washington and i know that many other governments work with them as well it's not just the united states government i believe the brits worked with them in other countries and that's just the tip of the iceberg. when you look under the surface of these campaigns the private sector is creating a gray area risk free and where international law does not apply one of the more disturbing passages in it it was sort of language that was written in a sort of passive tense very euphemistically in the project titanic documents that i gathered from an internal company source is reference to eliminating.

the young male target population if they can't be deterred from jihadist activity the language wasn't exactly eliminating but you know resorting to other means and that tends to refer in my mind to drone assassination what my investigation demonstrates is that there is this gigantic web of firms whose names we don't know who are operating in the darkness and they're being contracted by governments to not only spy in conflict zones and carry out counterinsurgency operations but to export those methods back into our electoral systems in the west. well the u.k. government's alleged involvement in the titanium project is based on its field operatives who were required to register with the british foreign office for travel advice on operations but we have us the foreign office for a response and not however in their reply only attached a link explaining what the travel advice service does. an

iraqi court sentenced the french woman to life in prison spurring her the death penalty for joining a terror group and the lena. was captured last year in mosul and sentenced to seven months in prison for entering the country illegally after the end of that sentence she was jus to be deported home to france but prosecutors demanded a retrial saying she violated the country's antiterrorism law by following her husband to iraq they say he went there to join isel well out of the almost two thousand people from france that went to fight with the terror group it's believed that many were radicalized while serving time in french prisons with the authorities now raising the alarm over the problem five hundred convicted terrorists are currently imprisoned in france while it's thought to run twelve hundred of our prisoners have reportedly been radicalized with forty jew for

release over the next two years the country's leading country of terrorism prosecutors say that poses a major threat to the public. who measures a major risk of seeing people who not a tool repentant at the end of this sentence leave prison and yet be even more radical over their time behind bars. well with many questioning the initiative charla dubin ski has been to visit europe's largest yacht not only is there concern over the threats these individuals may pose to the outside world but also while they're incarcerated this is a flaw it's europe's largest prison and amongst the thousands of inmates being held here some unknown joe hardest see.

ya done every day in france prison guards are attacked we have been off the next one thousand one hundred supervisors over the next four years but for now we don't see anything happening we're tired of this you are the first t.v. channel i'm telling this to but yesterday we had a suicide and since january we've had ten other cases exhaustion among staff and concerns for their own welfare spilled over into protests. still the calls for help going on and sit and now prisons like this could soon be and locking their doors to let those radicalized inmates back into society set up recon this prison is the largest in europe there are four thousand three hundred inmates it's overcrowded we don't have enough staff we have more than one hundred twenty radicalized inmates here so you can imagine our difficulties for

a prison supervisor to handle this the forty alleged radicalized inmates who will soon get out of jail will likely find themselves on a counterterrorism watch list a list that already runs into the tens of thousands four thousand of whom are considered dangerous tragically even those on the watch list. often slips through the fingers of security services. the french authorities say they have to do more to properly monitor for me inmates and with france having suffered so much through terror attacks in recent years many

would argue it's about time they did charlotte even ski arty paris. in the autumn or putin signed into law country measures that will allow russia to retaliate against any sanctions put on moscow or to easily have a tranquil has been going over the paperwork. by signing this bill into law a lot of our putin has basically given himself freedom of maneuver for hitting back at countries that are hostile to moscow so if someone chooses to punish russia russian companies possibly russian individuals that's something we've seen many times in recent years think the u.s. first of all all the russian president has to do now is say we are responding name specific countries and then the countermeasures will immediately enter into force among the countermeasures that are available for the russian government the

severing of ties with states and companies and also import and export bans target industry sectors though haven't been specified but as the legislation was drafted we heard about such sectors as nuclear power agriculture pharmaceuticals space and aviation alcohol and tobacco industry use the issue is very sensitive so that was then dropped from the final text it requires more in-depth consideration but there is an important segment of the document which is about exceptions so if a certain type of goods falls under the banner however it is not produced in russia in this case these sanctions won't be applied. another story we're closely following this hour an immigration party has come out on top in another election sunday's vote in slovenia so the democratic party or s.t.'s win the most seats

although it did fall far short of a majority it's been suggested that the increase in support for may be linked to the migrant crisis and the party's hardline stance on the issue almost half a million pass through the country and twenty fifteen and twenty sixteen as they attempted to cross into western europe its leader. claims migrants would be better off staying in their own countries. the biggest wave of mass migration we told our european partners the better life for those who want to come to europe should be secured in their home countries. while slovenian philosopher as love voyage eject torcall and breyer earlier that the rise of right wing nationalist parties is being driven by a fundamental disconnect between politicians and large swathes of the public it's just same process all at all western europe united states and so on and so on the ruling elites is usually say last song doctor we saw quote we're going to

be all of you know you want to get us all seen don't eat it but it's end by european institutions and these opens up the strays and i don't see any good organizations as far as slovenia is concerned of the height of the migrant crisis when hungary closed its borders many migrants made their way through slovenia but they were trying to get to france to germany and into britain they didn't stay in slovenia so what do people where you are really think of the migrant crisis they will go to the established. they're going to mostly intercepted the ball get into a box of crayons and don't spot that directly to australia and who are a little bit surprised incidentally how many of them when i asked would you like to stay here this is not.
