headlines in r.t. protests ahead of the g. seven summit in canada as world leaders join forces against their biggest ally the u.s. over its you know that policies you don't get maybe the american president doesn't mind being isolated today but we also don't mind being six if need be a kindergarten in massachusetts causes concern after teaching children a nursery rhyme about how to survive a gun rampage and a plan to me putin meet with the chinese president in beijing to discuss regional security and cooperation as washington brands both countries are adverse or it's.

a welcome just on two pm here in moscow you're watching r.t. international. now the g. seven summit in canada will get underway later amid tensions between traditional allies almost a thousand protesters gathered to oppose the upcoming meeting that is leaders of the world's biggest economies round on the u.s. over its imposition of steep tariffs on metal imports the french president emanuel macron has even suggested that america could find itself excluded at the g. seven it may be the american president doesn't mind being isolated today but we also don't mind being six if need be and it seems like donald trump himself is preparing for a tough gig at the g. seven he's tweeted that he is ready for a fight with his fellow world leaders over the issue of trade later he tweeted that the european union itself is charging the u.s. massive terrorists on the quarter takes a closer look. the g. seven june summit seems already destined for dysfunction with

a heap of complaints from the u.s. as european allies some are suggesting a name change to keep up with the times we should have been a good night to invoke to save them to the group who challenges of the world and instead of that we would be divided between not to be them it would be a just six why it's not too hard to see where the fallout between washington and the rest of the pack is coming from in just two years donald trump has caused serious problems for a major international agreements first by announcing he was ditching the paris climate accord then the iran nuclear agreement the breakthrough deal which took years to negotiate and now he's unleashed a trade war with the e.u. by slapping tariffs on their steel and aluminum. the united states will withdraw from the iran nuclear deal the united states will withdraw from the

paris climate accord the united states has been taken advantage of other countries both friendly and not so friendly for many many decades i'm here to protect and one of the reasons i was elected as on protecting our workers on protecting our companies even the angle of merkel who is known for maintaining her cool during the worst diplomatic spats has had some strong words to share about the u.s. as recent exits. it is clear that especially with the exit of the u.s. from the climate deal there is dissent within the g seven just as much as with the announcement of tariffs on the mean human steel which we believe are illegal and also the issue of the iranian nuclear deal which the u.s. has withdrawn from. moreover merkel warned of this lack of compromise may lead to the g seven failing to issue a joint statement that would make this year's summit in toronto the first ever and without a communique and chances are high it will with the french president emanuel macron

also rumored to be unwilling to sign a joint paper with trump unless he makes some concessions and makes an effort to mend all the multilateral deals he's jumped which most likely will not actually according to his economic advisor this row is no big deal at all. there may be disagreements. i regard this as. much like a family quarrel we will do what is necessary to protect the united states its businesses and its workforce don't blame trump. blame the nations that have broken away from those conditions blame the other countries now that's what you want to hear right before a g. seven summit donald corridor r t well earlier we heard from rome poll the former us presidential candidate in the founder of the rome paul institute for peace and he believes the hostility the g seven summits to achieve anything positive.

and maybe they think truffle back down which he might you know a lot of times look at hostile he was to north korea and all of a sudden you know his tune changed right now he might be just maneuvering they're betting on that and he has done that on foreign policy but there are certain things that he does not back down on for instance he did he campaigned on it did not back down and on or on iran and that's why we're moving in this direction so maybe he'll stick to his guns on these on these tariffs. and i think it'll be interesting and and worth watching over this weekend but i just don't think anything real positive is coming out because i don't think they talk about the real problems that cause that are our climate of hostility and trading and coming up with this but there are certain things that he does not back down on for instance he did he campaigned on it did not back down and on or on iran and that's why we're moving in

this direction so maybe he'll stick to his guns on these on these tariffs but they're they're punishing us american taxpayer the american consumer things punishing. so it really doesn't make any sense when the europeans spoke out after trump took us out of the nuclear agreement with iran and one of the europeans will stand up to it this is business. nursery rhyme at a massachusetts kindergarten designed to help children survive a potential she was seeing has drawn concern from parents and also shock on social media some of question disapprove creating us in a country that has seen at least one choosing a week to share although authorities do you say they are defending the rhyme believing that it is the world we live in samir a kung reports imagine picking up your five year old from kindergarten and feeling a strange nursery rhyme to the wall a reworked version of twinkle twinkle little star with on the lyrics. look down

knock down the door shut the lights off say no more go behind the desk and hide wait until it's safe inside look down look down it's all done now it's time to have some fun that picture was posted by a massachusetts mom who was taken aback when she learned her daughter had been doing active shooter drills as part of her pre-kindergarten program but she's not the only one another mom had a similar experience. my girls were playing teacher this past weekend they had math time snack time to read a new book and practice their. shooter drew earlier this week a class of a graders in pennsylvania were given bullet proof shields for the backpacks a local sports work company thought it would be a perfect gift for a middle school graduation the company's c.e.o. who happens to have a daughter at that school gifted shields to all of her classmates and an extra twenty five to the school now there's a defensive measure parents and kids can take to ward off the injury and improve the chances of students survival. in the time of need.

let's do the same put it on this way. you can hold it up to protect their base although perhaps it's worth noting bullet proof shields don't provide protection against assault weapons which have been most commonly used mass shootings but the company one plenty of publicity with such an unconventional graduation gift and there are also those who try to make money off the mass shootings last month a video game designed to simulate a school shooting sparked a major public outrage and this will come and distributing. it offer to users an opportunity to play is either the killer or a swat officer trying to catch the gunman. parents part outraged and why wouldn't they be this year alone the country has seen

at twenty three school shootings where someone was either injured or killed that after just one such incident every single week so far so perhaps it's not so surprising that fashion exert making it to video games and active shooter drills to schools and even kindergarten so me up on our t.v. washington d.c. . now with the syrian army having had driven out the last terrorist from the outskirts of the capital damascus civilians and i are returning to their homes although for many there is little to come back to some areas are in fact recognize . such as one former school. this used to be my school i could never imagine how badly destroyed it would be but still this is a school a place where small kids are going to be told why these murals.

birthdays i just have not had that kind of relationship with anyone else and my schedule did not allow spending my birthday with any of my other foreign counterparts but i was able to do so with decision being. low key other key international issues on the generous wall was of course the iran nuclear crisis and the troubles on the korean peninsula both leaders have stated they will do everything possible to maintain the iranian nuclear agreement of course which took around nine years to negotiate between multiple countries as well as expressing their commitment to a peaceful. and stable situation on the korean peninsula sticking to a concrete roadmap for the resolution of the crisis no doubt of course they'll be watching very closely this summit between trump and the north korean leader kim jong un in the coming days. coming up in the meantime though both leaders will be heading. of course to the summit of the shanghai cooperation organization well give

along the russian border called cyber strike has had a bumpy start for vehicle smashed into each other and injuring thirteen troops takes a closer look now at the bloc show of force right on russia's doorstep around eighteen thousand troops from nineteen different countries taking part in nato so you post strike eighteen military maneuvers. those at the very top of the alliance say that despite all those troops and all of the military hardware heading in the general direction of russia this operation is not designed as a provocation to moscow nato has what we call the dual track approach the rest of.

which is about that we need stronger turns a strong defense combine that with political dialogue because we're not aiming at isolating russia. russia so a neighbor russia said to stay but that's not the way russia sees it these maneuvers and the announcement by warsaw at the end of last month that poland wants to see a permanent u.s. base on its soil being described by kremlin spokes person as a source of potential instability in europe when we see the gradually expansion of nato military structures towards our borders this of course in no way create security and stability on the continent just last week angola merkel endorsed plans for a european defense force sometimes called the a u army that's as well as germany remaining committed to nato she went on to say that the two percent of g.d.p. aim for nato members to finance the alliance wasn't just some fetish but left wing

opposition here in germany say that the chancellor's current tack is taking the country down a militarized route that they're not happy with there's a reality of the situation is that now we have too many maneuvers in the last four years we've had four times more maneuvers than the russian side of course those maneuvers do not help in establishing trust this is a form of escalation we can see that close to the russian border nato's demonstrating massive weapon systems with increased personnel which is creating an insecure atmosphere the russians respond to that in their own way and we can see the situation escalating we are too militarized the german military budget is close to forty billion euros and that makes it the ninth largest army in the world in terms of spending the german army is already strong enough maybe even too strong in relation to the threat level we have. despite those concerns it's full steam ahead

for a savior strike maneuvers which critics claim a little more than saber rattling peter all over. and that brings up sites i found this hour don't forget we've got a website so you full of stories you can have a look at that.

the. palestine is getting international recognition with the help of israel at least in the world of zoos and dismiss it. like you know. this isn't my cup of tea is going to study all maybe.

the only poll. gets the most helpful is to respond counterparts i do think this is another those who in the world under the oak vision know only could do this. and that is that it's got this lady in the muscle that you have i know if you can tedium it doesn't seem to do more than the most awesome don't piss off. with no make this manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the fines merry go round the sun be the one percent. we can all middle of the room sick.

greetings and salutation it's 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 a further proves just how truly hellish war could 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 international humanitarian law and are 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 the pentagon's public affairs representative one colonel thomas v.l. on these discrepancies and the amnesty report his response was interesting as far as how do we know how many civilians were killed i'm just being honest no

one will ever know. no one will ever know that sink in war is indeed held so when the politicians the generals and defense contractor cheerleaders parade themselves on new speeds and television screens across the land justifying their war as humanitarian intervention or touting new sybille human saving military technology to not be dazzled by the theatrical of the circuitry because at the end of the day a bomb is still a. war by friends is never justified or heroic and when it comes to civilian casualties no one will ever know those numbers and it's for those innocent lives lost that we must always be. watching parks.

you get the. rails at. the bottom. like you know that i got. to. welcome her on the watch of the hawks i am sorry roll that down tap. we've talked repeatedly over the last couple of years about the amount of civilian casualties that are reported first is you know the numbers of how much how many you know how many military engagements happen in an area and of course it's always it's this tiny little amount and it's impossible to tell because you know we just don't know who is there you don't know who is there but you're bombing them yeah that's the whole point if you don't know how many innocent people

you've killed it's because you didn't pay attention in the first place well look let's let's be honest i don't think this speaks for a majority of soldiers of the group speaks for a majority of generals but there is a very real push with politicians and certain members of the military. who make these decisions that i don't think at the end of the day they care i jog or sleep don't think that they care anymore about how many innocent lives are lost because to them it's all about the profit it's all about that the overall mission you know it's we need to drop this many bombs there i mean amnesty international researchers they did they did their homework they visited forty two coalition air strike sites across the ruined city of raka they interviewed one hundred twelve civilian residents and i'm sure our military didn't take the time to do that when they tried to do their number counting on how many innocent lives were killed in this and they talk to hundred twelve civilians who all law you know who all not only survived all of this but then also lost loved ones the victims highlighted in this amnesty.
