tensions are high ahead of friday's g. seven summit in canada with world leaders engaging in tough talk over new u.s. tariffs trump saying he is ready to fight over the issues. from the world cup to world war three foreign policy shares the spotlight with domestic issues during sixteen for q. and a session with the public. in time for a wake up call the british parliament's upper chamber the house of lords is braided over members falling asleep during sessions we get reaction on the streets of london. place. and. say well actually thought i'd love to be paid to having a. long day just listening to other people all day long. broadcasting

live from our studios in moscow this is our international. glad to have you with us and world leaders are arriving for the two thousand and eighteen g. seven summit set to take place this friday in canada japanese prime minister shinzo plane has just touched down and earlier british pm i'm a took the opportunity of her arrival to announce the european union would take reciprocal measures in response to new u.s. trade tariffs she was not the only one to criticize the tears french president arrived earlier and has already held a joint press conference with canada's justin trudeau and if their remarks are any indication the upcoming g seven discussions may be a little bit tense here's what the leaders said ahead of the. american decision

this the other six countries of the g seven are a bigger market than the u.s. there is no global hegemony if we know how to organize ourselves we don't maybe the american president doesn't mind being isolated today but we also don't mind being six if need be we are 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 tariffs but that he is looking forward to meeting micron and trudeau recently we have heard much concern from politicians who called trump's tariffs illegal a political mistake and unacceptable this is very unfortunate between not to be a g seven it would be a g.

six. and all of. the problem is if your closest friend for the. 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 real way are 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 all start twittering and what you're doing that i think trumps looking forward to it because he thrives on this i think he handled better with silence rather than playing his game of starting to say hey mr trump you're

a bad guy doing this we're going to gang up on you because i don't 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 lasted for more than four hours 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 not to be a putin recently presented a snood of superweapons we're talking here about big a move powerful fos the nuclear missiles but they stick missiles in one view a 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 guard system but now we see it in syria and that's not 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 will waving you will guns around to you know measuring any. thing 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. putin how close we are to world war three it was in the spring it's interesting that among the 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 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 until we will treat each other as equals until nations learn to respect each other and to compromise then he pointed to the trade war that has just erupted between europe and the united states saying that the new tariffs that washington has slapped in the europeans which have 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 u.s. 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 kind of politics is counterproductive the politics of limitations and sanctions let me putin also spoke about the upcoming world cup jus to kick off in about a week in all over russia really andy said. 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 of fide fake news r.t. france spoke to several lawmakers who warned that the government back to bill takes the country in a dangerous direction. the problem is in foresman 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 gazed freedom of speech on are we going to ban 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. despite all the criticism of the proposed law is being heavily promoted by the president as are to show the penske explained. 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 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 that 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 but as organs of influence and

false propaganda. this is an. enormous if six young woman you should. look up this it was like about him with legalese congress. 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. they'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 many 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 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 that home 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 all the news 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's nothing to be afraid of meanwhile paris has witnessed a massive street protests against reforms introduced by president ran and also against privatization of public services.

no you are a. high school and university students rallied on thursday voicing their opposition against stricter entry requirements for oversubscribed university courses among them were railway and postal workers who marched against new regulations impacting french railways. out of the u.k. now where members of the house of lords have been well 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 party's paula boyko explains why parliamentary snoozes are such a sensitive issue. most members of the house of lords which is the chamber of the british parliament have 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 the law job is to scrutinise british law and that can be pretty tiring so much sir that even the most hardworking and conscientious lords and politicians can get a little sleep paid. well rumor has it 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 your established parliamentary

convention perry is all allowed to quote rest their eyes so i mom with photos of sleeping lords all sleepy looking lords and i want london as to help me determine which of these are just resting their eyes and which all most definitely in the land of nod the definition so he might be resting his eyes they've just been told off the sleeping too much and the 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 is to me i was just ok so you're not guilty not guilty what about what about these to. slee. resting his eyes they should. be allowed to have a little camp in the chamber that's lots of. scrutinising legislation i would think in this place i would be let's have it not before i went to work so why should i i'd love to be paid for having

a campaign in my office has sitting there should be allowed to have a little kick in the chamber they can do whatever they want as far as i understand their old gentleman and i deserve a little bit of respect. long day just listening to other people all day long so we're going to let them have. four police officers in the us state of arizona have been put on paid leave after a video showed them beating an unarmed black man last month and a bit of a word of warning you might find the following images disturbing now a group of policemen are seen attacking a man as he stands against the wall at an apartment complex the man does not appear to resist as he is punched repeatedly including while lying on the floor and has been identified as thirty three year old robert johnson the police were called because his girlfriend was allegedly trying to enter his ex girlfriends apartment the local police say chief says johnson refused to follow officers commands. the things that he said and leaning against the wall made the office 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 in the us does not give the full picture the mesa police department has also made headlines in the past the video that we're about to run next shows the arrest of an eighty four year old woman and was blurred before being released. you know the if you do not pass. the on the right. when family claims the officers told them that she had slips and police later said that they were attempting to move her to a safer area another video released back in december provoked a wave of outrage defying police shooting an unarmed man in an arizona hotel and

the officer was acquitted of murder and manslaughter charges out again but a warning the following pictures are served. to the new. the it's tied to the ship the is. just wrong. to call it. we spoke to dominic as though a former police officer and candidate for sheriff in cook county illinois he believes that there was no justification for the level of course mesa police used 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 that you do have a video 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 of. the 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 all 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 and secretary of state referred to d.-day as the turning point in the fight against the nazis not mentioning the soviet union's immense contribution to the victory and pump a also chose not to elaborate on what countries he sees as tyrannical in the modern world earlier 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 an independent journalist a lucrative a feels american officials seem to be forgetting some important facts about world war two. should refuse her 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 to second. pillars i'd say off the allies but the second one not the first story 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. i hear you say that. i'm shepard smith on facebook why would a fox i love the full circle c.n.n.

is live nightly newscast here on face. i. all right as you just saw there the shows will be produced by us based media outlets from different sides of the political spectrum from c.n.n. to fox news is reported that the social media giant has set aside a ninety million dollar budget for the project but despite its rapidly growing involvement with mainstream media back in april chief executive mark zuckerberg was 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 u.s. neil wallace media commentator and former news editor thinks it's going to be hard for the social media giant to navigate the new field. i think it's very revealing and whether the realize is outside his us 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 balances and where is he going to find the expertise that he's going to get guide seems through it does not simply going to be a pale reflection of the classic north american politically correct soft left elitist metropolitan world i think is 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.

month along festival of football that is the world cup almost within our grasp of the teams are slowly making their way to russia on thursday spain landed in the southern city of president are where it is based and the team's fans are eager to see their stars and they gathered outside of the crowds that are stadium but one of their group rivals has already had the opportunity to rest to begin preparations iran touched down in moscow on tuesday and have already had a chance to bring on russian soil they will play their opening game against morocco on the second day of the world cup in the. meanwhile football fans are already busy guessing who is likely to make it through the group stages as is r t host and world famous manager jose marino here are some of his picks. i would say. is really the we would go. for the experience to play is it the right thing to do.

to we in the group to be. a little show relate to totally portuguese both because i want to finish second in the world. well for more of the manchester united managers predictions you can head over to our web site r t dot com also if you think you can do better you can challenge him just head to facebook or twitter and use the hash tag match. has a great story for you an eighty five year old pensioner from northwestern russia has decided to give away his entire life savings and all to help others get a better start. it's.

their sheer. damn scary horror. that i had just because there are. here now. but i had sat where for. a horse out for the sorrow that. he. plans. to hear i do you. just roll it out over us so you're more appropriate for have called mother chris says now there is as.

i knew him when his money didn't know him before and from the documents we knew that he just turned eighty five and so we decided to get to know him. by the dozen for me i'll be back with headlines in about thirty four minutes stay with us you're watching the international.

i think the last two the interventions military interventions show all. those who usually be to listen to be learned this in the regime change also perform arts and take the you are cool saddam hussein take a daffy and leave you but i think this is her baby to listen and i think we should we all should to learn to go exactly these nation listens to changes not force who should accept our limits but turds inker the ideal for regime change military into the shoes from outside this is mostly all that.

power. the reason we call these our ships is because they're a ship to sail on the seas up tomorrow that's kind of why we call it that they're not a house that house needs power lines coming in and gas lines coming in and serious lines going out and water lines coming in. a nurse ship is the best for a machine that provides all of these things there are six things that humans need on this planet they need water they need come. herbal shelter that doesn't use fossil fuel they need electricity they need to treat their sewage and someway and they need to treat their garbage in some way and they need food these housing units called earth ships address all of these things all over the world and these are the

same six things that humans all over the world need to have addressed what kind of . living in the ship community here in the greater worlds is about those more than seventy houses about a hundred and forty people with families living who don't know what when i was little i used to feel like some kind of like. fairy a living there because you know it's so very. very organic very like you need a something like i was a woodland fairy a living master secret castle. it feels really good feels really solid and there's this sense of solidity living inside an earthen structure there's this sense of. waking up to something stable. and cooling kind of see the two little different than waking up in a house that's made of conventional. materials. is

a little more connected to the outdoors as well even when you're indoors but it's quite comfortable i think to like a few people can compare you know being an asset to whom or in a sense to you know a sweat lodge like once you're inside of it you do feel much it you feel that you need to being taken care of. as you say and you feel the solidity you really feel careful but at the same time it goes in both directions so you need to take care of your house for your house to take care of you properly. we just closed the skylights which are basically the hard edge or in the day evacuated through these sky lights and because it's now night time we just want the heat at this time to stay inside the house so every night we just close them and put a treat.
