usually when we have brought about a situation where the end of conflict we the jury decides to go see the first people to rush into the u.a.e. do their departure and as soon as we do. so as do the budget. argentina venezuela they are mad about that point because their commies are in freefall those are prefer all currencies when we had a major currency like the dollar the yen the euro the panel and enter

a similar crisis which i believe will happen you'll have then adoption rate in those countries while spike as well as a way to store a value as a way to preserve wealth because the banking system is completely unsustainable they will not exist as we understand it in ten years time it will not exist central banks are an endangered species. by a get away from the football now on tuesday the united states withdrew from the un human rights council secretary of state my pompei of another u.s. officials castigated the international body accusing it of hypocrisy and political bias. president shrub wants to move the ball forward from day one his call that institutions are countries who say one thing and do another and that's precisely
7:16 am
the problem with the human rights council. as president trump said at the u.n. general assembly there's a massive source of embarrassment to the united nations that some governments with egregious human rights records said on the human rights council for too long to human rights council has been a protector of human rights abusers and a cesspool of political bias europe lashed out at the u.s. decision to leave the un body the united states decision to withdraw from the human rights council is regrettable britain support for the human rights council remains steadfast today's decision risks undermining the role of the us as a champion a supporter of democracy in the world stage the european union will nevertheless continue to defend human rights and fundamental freedoms whether in multilateral for around the world also by cooperating with us whenever possible. israel though welcomed the move prime minister benjamin netanyahu called it a courageous decision some believe the u.s. withdrawal is a result of washington's close relations with israel the u.n.
7:17 am
secretary general expressed regret at the u.s. decision while a top rights group said it reflects washington's policy on the israeli palestinian conflict but the us ambassador to the united nations in turn accused rights groups of blocking reform of the body it is unfortunate that your letter sought to undermine our attempts to improve the human rights council you put yourself on the side of russia and china and opposite the united states on a key human rights issue the united states will continue to be a rural leader in calling for human rights for all people and enforcing international attention on to mass atrocities the general secretary of the palestinian national initiative says america's withdrawal harms its credibility on human rights. this is american withdrawal from human rights council reflection of how serious the problem is with that arms administer action which has become
7:18 am
totally biased to israel and is favored in those israeli interest even to the american interest and i think withdrawing from such an important human. rights council. undermines all the claims from the side of the american administration that there cared so much about human rights that is very dangerous very grave situation it has undermined completely the ability of the united states to play at all in any peace in the future and it is definitely affecting good reputation of the american administration and this is also linked to many other issues but on the issue of human rights this is going to be a very serious loss for the american policy. and europe's also in turmoil over refugee policies france's president mccrum appeared to suggest on saturday that any is no longer dealing with a migrant crisis but the new italian interior minister condemned that remark as arrogant and insulting a crime also suggested fining countries that turned their backs on refugees. just
7:19 am
people for my part i'm in favor of having mechanisms that take this into account we cannot have countries that massively benefit from e.u. solidarity and who massively claim their national selfishness when it comes to the topic of migration meanwhile the rescue boat carrying more than two hundred migrants is stranded right now in the mediterranean both italy and moulton have refused entry the same situation played out last week that ship the aquarius carrying more than one hundred migrants rescued off the coast of libya was ultimately allowed to dock in spain. but even there was controversy students in the spanish city of alekhine three were forced to move out of their university accommodation to make way for the migrants a group of twenty students were reportedly only given twenty four hours to move out of the mother of one of those affected so it was unfair to kick out her son who always paid his rent adding that it's very doubtful that the spanish prime minister would leave his residence to accommodate the migrants and she's not the only one upset by the move is that refugees coming here with no money and what next why do
7:20 am
they get to their home for support from our government but they won't see it helping people is great but not when the country is in crisis and i do believe it is a good thing to shelter people in need but he victim students especially during exams is wrong. this is horrible the students only receive twenty four hours notice that's not enough time to find another place to stay. i feel for people who are forced to lose their homes to come here but it only thing that's plain is ready to welcome so many refugees it says their third district is this they paid their rent and have a right to state them in that it is that footnote to this authorities in the valencia region say that the students were offered alternative places to stay and didn't have to pay anything experts we spoke to have been sharing their view on spain's decision to open its ports to that ship build reason it's very simple.
7:21 am
really. which is a social experiment who wanted to. really make a difference a. former prime minister wanted to. distraction to his public who were his voters so we know there. are more open. to. accepting this move move to say we are you one people on the other. but i hardly don't and. i think that in the future because i'm feeling the public opinion is not at all positive toward uncontrolled immigration. it's spain had to be careful with this is just about the consequences of this is the first one is spain is able to work on the number of possible number of immigrants
7:22 am
able to get to spend the following is not only for spain and for all digital and you know this is a good jest of this is. but did your band union and the spanish government need very long in order to find real solutions for this problem. the way we talk to each other on the internet nowadays is elevated way beyond just using words now we deploy in modi's gifts and of course means which borrowed heavily from movies and t.v. shows but then i wonder threat from the easiest legal oversea is we're getting tough on copyright infringement especially online was done in court and i explained . the internet as we know it may soon radically change at least in the e.u. with memes facing an access stench crisis as a result of new copyright laws that might kill them off.
7:23 am
a group of european parliament members are pushing for a new rules they would see platforms censor information to avoid copyright infringements now article thirteen is one of the more controversial of the plan it would have platforms install filters to check all the information users upload onto the internet what we're seeing here in this particular instance is this goes against what is the very much the why in which. and social media in particular where it's user generated and many uses the cult of the
7:24 am
general is taking snippets sort of news all schools it's taking. photos and. using those in the. now article eleven or the link tax has also garnered criticism it would see online platforms paying news publishers a fee just to if they link to their content now this is already been tried both in germany and in spain failing miserably in both instances and with this new e.u. copyright proposal seemingly on the way there are still a lot of questions as to what actually constitutes a taxable link and what if the government uses it to crack down on freedom of speech while seventy alarmed internet experts including the founders of the world wide web and a wikipedia have written a letter in protest by requiring internet platforms to perform automatic filtering all of the current and that their users bloat article thirteen takes an unprecedented step towards the transformation of b.
7:25 am
internet from an open platform for sharing and innovation into a tool for the automated surveillance and control of its uses. i larned bells have also been ringing at the united nations human rights council states and into governmental organizations should refrain from establishing a new force or arrangements that would require the proactive monitoring filtering of content which is both inconsistent with the right to privacy and likely to mount a pre-publication censorship for the proposal to become law the e.u. parliament will have to vote on it later this year and its critics are dead set on slaying this bill which they say would transform the internet into a tool of surveillance and control donald quarter r.t. berlin. that's a wrap on some of the headline news we've been across this week i'm calling back in thirty for the kick off between england of panama and sunday's opening world cup match in. whatever you're up to this weekend thanks for checking in with r.t. international.

the only way to get into his ear is to now is with the pakistani military they agreed to take our crew along but on their terms our timetable and program were agreed in advance and were rather we went the military had to go with us for our own safety on the other hand no one prevented us from making our own observations. so in the shower the military brought us to our hotel where foreigners used to stay. even here in the city that was never on the. extremist control this is the entrance to the. slight lot of fuel. with guns actually all these hotels built as a fortress. that
7:30 am
snap was a wrist on itself yet but a neighboring province they have brought us here to show was what they call it. but any time we stepped outside our hotel we were scored by four to five vehicles loaded with five or six well armed passengers every once in a while was so roadblocks and razor wire fences the sense here is that you are driving through a military camp and if peaceful life he's only possible to be on the spongers. as they explain to us. is where they keep former militants.
