8:01 pm
a bit let them have. the broadcasting live direct from our studios moscow this is our two international incheon thomas certainly glad to have you with us now world leaders are arriving for the two thousand and eighteen g. seven summit set to take place this friday in canada british prime minister teresa mayes plane touched down recently french president. arrived earlier and has already held a joint press conference with canada's justin trudeau and if their remarks are any indication of the upcoming g seven discussions may be a little tense u.s. president and other world leaders are divided on trump's new trade tears here is what the french and canadian leaders said head of. the other six countries of the g. seven or a bigger market than the u.s. there is no global the job. money if we know how to organize ourselves we don't
8:02 pm
maybe the american president doesn't mind being isolated today but we also don't mind being six if need be we're going to continue to defend our industry now workers but i also know that our citizens expect us to resolve our differences and show him that his actions on acceptable. and it seems like donald trump himself is preparing for a tough atmosphere at the g. seven he has tweeted that he is ready for a fight with his fellow world leaders over the issue of trade later he tweeted that france and canada themselves are charging the us massive terrorist but that he's looking forward to meeting micron and trudeau recently we've heard much concern from politicians who called tariffs illegal a political mistake and unacceptable this is very unfortunate he tweeted not to be a g seven it would be a g. six. and all of. the problem is if your closest
8:03 pm
friend for there to be earlier we heard from ron paul former u.s. congressman and the founder of the ron paul institute for peace and prosperity he believes trump will actually enjoy the upcoming g. seven summit because he thrives on conflict and knows how to come out on top. the leaders of the other six countries are going to try to be a really a really tough on trump and make a lot of noise yet that is not the answer because trump usually wins all those types of arguments he proved it in our campaigning he just took that over and he said things and did things and controlled the media he's almost like don't cross me or i'll start twittering and what you're doing that i think trumps looking forward to it because he thrives on this and i think he handled better with silence rather than playing his game of starting to say hey mr trump you're a bad guy why are you doing this we're going to gang up on you because i don't
8:04 pm
think they'll follow through but trump trump loves a battle like this and i think they'll be a lot of battling there but not much will come of it. from domestic issues to the consequences of a third world war russia's president has wrapped up his annual televised q. and a with the public this time it lasted for more than four hours or days but i've got to have breaks down the highlights for us. some of the things that really stood out was what vladimir putin had to say about foreign affairs for example putin recently presented a snood of super weapons we're talking here about bigger more powerful foster nuclear missiles but they stick missiles and one viewer challenge vladimir putin saying you know does this stuff really exist there are those who doubt new russian weapons are soon going to be put into service back in two thousand and four they were doubting the armed guard system but now we see it in syria and that's not
8:05 pm
everything that we're planning to produce and put into service as i said in my address it's too early to talk about it but we will speak out soon the president stress that this isn't about saber rattling or waving your guns around or you know measuring anything with anyone but this is about parity this is about making sure that russia has a deterrent that new enemy no potential opponent can overcome russia and here another particularly worried. me a putin how close we are to world war three muslims will need to change the in a moment don't because you know you can recall einstein's words he said i don't know with what weapons world war three will be fought but world war four will be fought with sticks and stones with the understanding of the fact that world war three may be the end of modern civilization must deter us from extreme actions on the international scene all this war talk and fears is no surprise given current
8:06 pm
tensions between the east and the west people are you know when is this going to end when is this division going to end these sanctions these restrictions and let me putin said that they won't and till we will treat each other as equals until nations learn to respect each other and to compromise that he pointed to the trade war that has just erupted between your. the united states saying that the new tariffs that washington has slapped on the europeans which made them very unhappy those aren't so much tariffs as they are sanctions you know i mean you sort of one of the french government's ministers recently said that the us shouldn't be allowed to become the economic policeman of the world and he spoke about it publicly the former german minister of finance publicly said that germany hasn't been a fully sovereign state since one thousand nine hundred five but everybody can see what's going on but probably our partners thought it would never affect them that
8:07 pm
kind of politics is counterproductive the politics of limitations and sanctions and let me putin also spoke about the upcoming world cup jus to kickoff in about a week in all over russia really andy said that the russian team lately hasn't hasn't played as well perhaps as a somewhat expected and he said he hoped that now that the world cup is here they'll really show what they've got. french m.p.'s have hit out at a new law designed to fight fake news r.t. france spoke to several lawmakers who warned that the government backed bill takes the country in a dangerous direction. the problem is in force ment of this law would put us in the position where the state decides what is truth and what is not. i'm extremely concerned because this law is actually gaist freedom of speech. are we going to ban
8:08 pm
and when russia today and sputnik if you want to ban what comes from the outside looking like fake news or what is coming from channels belonging to foreign governments you're not out of the woods yet it will be necessary to watch the b.b.c. morning and evening you better watch out just here every day and maybe some others will start to monitor france twenty four france twenty four may broadcast information that would be in the interests of the french. well despite all the criticism of the proposed law is being heavily promoted by the president as are to shoulda been ski explains. it. is a basic freedom is the freedom of expression which always comes with the freedom of conscience and of thought and that constitutes the basis for the counter power vital to our democracy this illiberal temptation must be taken seriously. well the french president is of vocal defender of democracy and press freedom on top of that
8:09 pm
he's on a crusade against fake news the bill he initiated is aimed at protecting european elections from all kinds of this information spread in the media elections fakes media you have all of the key elements but one it seems is missing this voice specifically russian media because of the time when the law was. thought the russian with responsible for the united states since there was lots of investigation very very few evidence concerning the russian of course no surprises here president is not a fan of russian media and of our channel in particular. russia today have not behaved as media outlets and journalists as organs of influence and false propaganda. but this is.
8:10 pm
the missing six young woman so you should. look up this it was like about him with american troops. this was an. if passed the bill would allow french judges to block the publication of any information deemed to be head of elections not definitely false but. how efficient can these measures be welcome back because basically if you sense for something you're going to point everybody's attention to. and there is no way you can censor efficiently the internet so everybody will be looking for this century news and because it's censured the many people in france who believe that's the truth even though it's probably not the government just spends the initiative saying that it has nothing to do with reducing freedom of expression but vice versa
8:11 pm
it's only to protect kids there is no foreign media in the country available to. what foreign media or news which is not really widespread in france let's be honest here. too internet providers. for those are the two major internet providers and in france for those of you don't know you have t.v. . with your internet provider i don't have art in use on my t.v. so i don't have access to the news other than having access using the internet online on the web so it's not going to change much honestly there is nothing to be afraid of meanwhile paris has witnessed massive street protests against reforms introduced by president of iran and also against privatization of public services. oh. oh oh oh oh oh.
8:12 pm
oh oh oh high school and university students rallied on thursday voicing their opposition against a stricter entry requirements over oversubscribed university courses among them were railway and postal workers who marched against new regulations impacting french railway. that's which gears to the u.k. now where members of the house of lords have been given a slap on the wrists over their behavior a memo has reportedly been sent out complaining about shouting audible conversations and falling asleep while in the chamber explains why parliamentary snoozes are such a sensitive issue. not just members of the house of lords which is the chamber of the british parliament i've been around the block for quite some time the average age in the lords chamber is sixty nine and from the breadth of their experience that all job is to scrutinise british lol and that can be pretty tiring so much so
8:13 pm
that even the most hardworking and conscientious lords and politicians can get a little sleep paid. well over there that the lords have now received a quiet telling off for falling asleep in the chamber according to the times newspaper a conservative his have received an email telling them that their behavior and that isn't up to scratch and it said that the other political parties are sending a similar reprimand to their lords but according to established paul. convention perry is all allowed to quote lest that eyes so i mom with
8:14 pm
photos of sleeping dogs all sleepy looking lords and i were long gone as to help me determine which of these are just resting their eyes on which all most definitely in the land of knowledge the stephanie sleeping below so he might be resting his eyes they've just been told off the sleeping too much in the chain that guy's lost control of his neck so he's definitely sleeping but i think he'd be asleep and he might be resting but i don't know all right just looking down to me i was just ok so you know guilty not guilty what about what about these to. the. rest of his eyes they should be allowed to have a little camp in the chamber that sorts of her writing a nice scrutinising legislation i would think not misplaced i would be a let's have a i'm not a thief i went to work say why should i i'd love to be paid for having a campaign in my office think they should be allowed to have a little kip in the chamber they can do whatever they want as far as i understand their old gentleman and they deserve a little bit of respect so long day they just listening to other people all day
8:15 pm
long so they get on a bit let them have. video showing up for us police officers beating an unarmed black man last month has caused them to be put on paid leave details are coming up after a short break stay with us. the family was engaged in massive political financial corruption which led to a concentration of wealth and ultimately the downfall of that country so in america a similar corruption playing out and we call it money in politics and people try to get rid of the lobbyists and this cycle is being played out all over again and so the question is is it inevitable. do you something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected.
8:16 pm
so would you want to be president and she. wanted. to go right to be this is what. three of the more people. interested always in the water. welcome back this is our t. international now for police officers in the u.s. state of arizona have been on paid leave after a video showed them beating and unarmed black man last month they would have warning may find the following images disturbing a group of policemen are seen attacking a man as he stands against the wall at an apartment complex a man does not appear to resist as he has punched repeatedly including while lying
8:17 pm
on the floor he has been identified as thirty three year old robert johnson and police were called because his friend was allegedly trying to enter his girlfriend's apartment the local police chief says johnson refused to follow command orders the things that he said and then we need against the wall maybe officers feel as though they needed to have him sit down and so when he didn't sit down. with the applied force. the local police association has criticised the release of the video as it has no sound and thus does not give the full picture the mesa police department has also made headlines in the past the video we're about to run next shows the arrest of an eighty four year old woman and was blurred before being released taking the three.
8:18 pm
the on the right. woman for the family claims that the officers told them she had swept the police who later said that they were attempting to move her to a safer area another video released back in december provoked a wave of outrage showing a police shooting an unarmed man in an arizona hotel now the officer was acquitted of murder and manslaughter charges again the following pictures make it a service. to the new. the it tried to take the shape of the it. just the. case pulled. and we spoke to dominic izzo a former police officer and candidate for sheriff in cook county illinois he
8:19 pm
believes there was no justification for the level of force method police use in the latest incident. we have to have police officers are using their brains a little bit more i don't harbor some pro police and it's not doing law enforcement any favor but you do have a video as it gets released and they're not going anywhere it doesn't matter what race what gender or what culture the subject was it doesn't matter if the subject had said no i'm not sitting down i refused to obey any one of your commands it was it was an excessive amount of force that we do is i can't get behind any any support whatsoever strikes on a subject like that a. u.s. secretary of state has taken a swipe at what he described as modern day tyranny the foreign policy message came in a tweet by mike pompei about the seventy fourth anniversary of d.-day during world war two that is when u.s. and allied troops landed in normandy to liberate western europe from nazi forces
8:20 pm
and the secretary of state referred to d.-day as the turning point in the fight against the nazis not mentioning of the soviet union's immense contribution to the victory and pompei also chose not to elaborate on what countries he sees as trying to go in the modern world or state department spokesperson heather nauert also made an awkward comment using the d.-day landings as an example of the longstanding relations between the u.s. and germany but when you talk about germany we have a very strong relationship with the government of germany very strong relationship looking back in the history books today is the seventy first anniversary of the speech that now announced the marshall plan tomorrow is the anniversary of the d.-day invasion. we obviously have a very long history with the government of germany or independent journalist luke rivet who believes american officials seem to be forgetting some important facts
8:21 pm
about world war two. should refuse courses in geography and above all in history and in the plum state this is of course on the day the germans were on the wrong side and the americans on the good side but what strikes me in comparison iraq and i remarked to it is the fact that they seem to believe that we've won the war full stop forgetting the red army if you look at the number of victims of soldiers who were killed during the war it's eight point seven million for the red army while the americans as a whole for the whole war lost only four hundred thousand men so it's twenty one times more than the american casualties and the realistic truths of the second football is clearly the soviet union and of course the americans helped there at second. pillars let's say off the allies but the second one not the first story
8:22 pm
folks. in a bid to win back users trust facebook is splashing out on a series of news programs exclusively for its video streaming service. i. hear you say that. i'm shepard smith on facebook live with a box i love the full circle scene as a live nightly newscast here on facebook. as you just saw there the shows will be produced by u.s. based media outlets from different sides of the political spectrum from c.n.n. to fox news it is reported that the social media giant has set aside a ninety million dollars budget for the project but despite its rapidly growing involvement with mainstream media back in april chief executive mark zuckerberg was
8:23 pm
reluctant to acknowledge the platforms pivotal role in the news industry. which are you are you a tech company or are you the world's largest publisher do we feel responsibility for the content on our platform the answer to that i think is clearly yes and but i don't think that that's incompatible with fundamentally at our core being a technology company where the main thing that we do is have engineers and build products facebook claims that the news outlets will have full editorial control over the programs which for now will only be available in the us neil wallace media commentator and former news editor thinks is going to prove hard for the social media giant to navigate the new field. i think it's very revealing whether zuckerberg realizes outside his u.s. bubble what he's doing here but he is actually putting his hands up and saying yes we are a publisher you know what it's difficult it's hard it's very difficult to strike
8:24 pm
balances and where is he going to find the expertise that he's going to get guide seems through it that is not simply going to be a pale reflection of the classic north american politically correct soft left elitist metropolitan world i think it's going to be really difficult for him to do and i think it's going to be not a good thing necessarily for the facebook audience. within the world cup almost within our grasp the teams are slowly making their way to russia on thursday spain landed in the southern city of krasny dar where its base camp are situated in the team's fans are eager to see their stars they've gathered outside the president our stadium but one of their group rivals has already had the opportunity to rest and begin preparations iran touch down in moscow on tuesday and have already had a chance to train on russian soil they will be playing their opening game against

relationship survive the current occupant in the white house. greetings and sell you take this war is never pretty quaters. war is hell this week amnesty international released a blistering report on the u.s. led coalition siege on the isis controlled city of raka syria and further proves just how truly hellish war can be especially on the civilians caught in the crossfire according to amnesty international there is strong evidence that coalition air and artillery strikes killed and injured thousands thousands of

civilians including in disproportionate or indiscriminate attacks that by a late add international humanitarian law and our potential war crimes in the report amnesty highlights the losses of four families living in rocco who between them they lost ninety relatives and neighbors thirty nine from a single family almost all of them killed by coalition air strikes. this report of course flies in the face of the official numbers coming out of our friends our good friends at the pentagon which claims that the united states who was responsible for ninety percent of the airstrikes on rocka and coalition forces only killed five hundred civilians in injured just one hundred sixty nine in the half year long siege when reporters confronted pentagon's public affairs representative one colonel thomas v.l. .
