it was. after nine hours of intense deliberations eve leaders reach a non-binding agreement on the migrant crisis but one there's still a long way to go to solve the immigration issue. a prominent us on the child abuse campaign or a nobel peace prize nominee has been arrested by the f.b.i. about allegations of paedophilia. and the group stage of the twenty eighteen world cup in russia is over only sixteen teams now remain in the race to be crowned champions. and while i am here in moscow and you're watching r.t. international live from our studio with me in india a tudor welcome to the program and exhausting to day and all mighty e.u.

summit is over with leaders finally putting a deal on migration they seem happy with the agreement but european council president donald tusk wants the signing was just the easy part. as you go out so i would do all migration so it's far too early to talk about the success. we have so much to reach an agreement. but this is inside the easiest part of the thoughts. stored through h.r. from the growth as we heard there the european union leaders have reached a compromise agreement over the whole migrant issue there are some major changes that have been put forward and these include the fact that migrants can no longer choose where they will live migrant centers will be set up in non european countries at the same time there will be more support given to mediterranean countries that are affected by the whole migrant crisis the relocation of migrants across europe will take place on. a voluntary basis and the dublin agreement that

essentially says that the responsibility for care of my friend's race on the country where that migrant into europe will this is now going to be completely revised and what it means is that we will see a joint u. of p. and forces monitoring rescue operations in the mediterranean sea and the responsibility for this not falling sold me on the shoulders of the italians the agreement however is non binding and it comes in an effort by europeans to show solidarity after late on thursday the italians refused to add here to agreements that had been made on other issues on military financial and digital issues until the migrant issue was solved today does that come from our small intermission proceeded to conclude a lot of things have based on the entire basis of cargo boat as soon as it was willing the whole question is essentially what does a non-binding agreement mean we are hearing from the italian prime minister who

says to quote that italy could initiate procedures against european union members who do not respect the deal now although you have the german chancellor angela merkel and the french president stressing that the shows you appear in unity what is clear is that they've had to bow to the pressure of the italians and other central european states what we're hearing from the german chancellor and that here and said this is not the end of the road this is an important step in the right direction where of course not here to the end of the road the latest spat started when italy said it would no longer take in migrants now the new agreement states that if a migrant for example is picked up on the german austrian border but was registered in greece or spain he or she can be sent back the question remains of course how exactly this will be implemented on the ground and how this new agreement will pan out. experts told us that despite the show of unity from european leaders member states estelle bitterly split from medical greedy political troubles we don't know

whether she got chancellor in the next weeks and so she she was obliged to. reach a compromise. prong is not consistent i thought i mean he's keep saying that the wants are more slowly than. human europe but then he is the first to hold blocks migrants around on the border to meet only the blocks for. the does not accept n.g.o.s vassals to arrive the french bought and this is something that really is shocking for the at the council or say that france good lessons to us when they are not at all an example to follow the e.u. . made a show of unity but. show of unity became in e.u.

and then in itself echoes or are so many crises but they want to to mask the fragmentation of e.u. but at the same time. this compromise when you look at the compromise it's quite too weak. to say it's typical of e.u. . on the gritty east part of a compromise because he's so constructive on big ricci so everybody can agree but actually the problem is. the push to of dates and of a try to gain time but if you look at what has been agreed everything is voluntary it means on the voluntary basis there is no obligation to any decisions taken in this compromise. by the mayor put in and donald trump will be holding that summit two weeks from now in finland this comes at

a difficult time in relations between the west and russia over the script pointing sanctions and allegations of election meddling russia's foreign minister touched upon all those issues in an interview with the british t.v. network. can. you give any assurances that the upcoming midterm elections if you know it's time will not emit with either the press or some facts because we killed intelligence to discover something which is based on highly unlikely least might be a source. of the mystic geisha of the united states has been going for her longer here in the gulf now will probably regard to the internet research agency the russian troll factory that is going to be indicted is something which requires a throw in the they submitted their old case and they chipped quite

a number of things which were used for the day so let's not jump the gun. it was loose carol but i don't think that the logic of the who said sentence forced verdict later i don't think this logic is going to prevail this whole russia election meddling hysteria according to sergei lavrov is a prime example of a new and trendy mentality kind of act to accuse stand figure out later with the investigation into the russian interference in the us presidential elections still ongoing and in his opinion in opinion this approach prevails on the global geo political scene right now and they've even led to this quite peculiar exchange between him and the journalist. there are many in the west who say that the chaos whether it's spread whether it's cause whether it's from the white house or good at all in the world if not all of it before leaving

aside the us and you for good for skeptical actions and surrender that the brotherhood is also into that later but the chaos or the good going to the unseemly this does the chaos benefit russia as some in the west said. you have to be within the. historical free. for the logical for a human because it was business it's russian government weeks before the presidential elections and the months before the world cup what that will do you say from alleged chemical attacks in syria to the us elections i mean geographically wise sic users have found russia's fingerprints well pretty much all over the world standing out of those cases they always the case of this crippled poisoning back in march if you don't remember. a former double agent for the u.k. and his daughter were found poisoned apparently by a very powerful nerve agent in the u.k. city of the sales berry and the u.k.

is adamant russia did it in fact they presented russia with one question was it vladimir putin who ordered the poisoning did just glad i'm a putin kind of lost control of the people who eventually poisoned. and his daughter so sergey lavrov was confronted in the interview without. using the british data the coverup of this whole incident i don't it still does and as long as they don't give us information you know that the boat the russian citizen citizens have died in london during the posters all altered cases have been investigated in the secret for we don't understand. and if you want to know the reason. well it's you know one of the what is going towards the. united kingdom because of the political debate from what is going on.

it's come to think of it it's an interesting situation whereby a country which is leaving the european union has determined the european union pulled a sort of rush when they were ready for all you know look at all some of the europeans you know say you must expose the russian diplomats you must expel them so they did most of them some do now again official london has been maintaining that it was only moscow we had both motive and means to carry out a poisoning like this one in fact a lot of european countries sided with the united kingdom they expelled diplomats just like london did expelled russian diplomats and russia in its turn responded by doing the same and when it comes to a more generic story line of the interview for i may say so a lot of talk about the highly likely the infamous highly likely aspect of the

rhetoric aspect of things now a days sergey lavrov also has stressed that in his opinion we are already living in what he calls a post to west to world and as for russia's role in this post west world he says that more school plans to play a role on equal parts an equal role with other players. in this whole thing so when it comes to some predictions for the future for some forecasting there you have it . a prominent campaigner against child abuse has been arrested by the f.b.i. over allegations of paedophilia killing more pain reports. twenty two year old joel davis is outspoken in his activism against sexual violence that's what makes his recent arrest so disturbing joel davis has been arrested and it's alleged that he attempted to engage a minor in sexual activity and he's been distributing child pornography now beyond

the basic charges the actual details of the case are pretty disturbing the f.b.i. picked up davis in a sting operation now they've revealed some of the text messages he exchanged with undercover agents what's about to follow is rather disturbing but it's actually not the most disturbing part of the correspondence during the course of the text conversations davis stated that he is into children ages zero plus and has no limits davis told him because the offices that he previously had sexual experiences with a nine month old boy a six year old go and a seven year old boy now according to the f.b.i. davis actually asked the undercover agents to send him explicit videos and photographs of children the department of justice says they are appalled by the case conduct and edged again still davis is unfathomable as it is sickening and as this case demonstrates to enforcement keep its watchful eye on the darkest corners of the internet to print credits is to justice davis is

a long time outspoken advocate of human rights he had a organization with over five thousand people it was very well funded he gave regular media appearances in our acted and respected in peacetime then you're not going to be able to protect them or respect them in conflict like you need to when you do need the rule of law and so many conflicts across the globe children's bodies are quickly becoming sites of violence where rape is used to terrorize and to great entire communities now davis went on to actually give a ted talk on the subject of expertise that if it was two months ago and the video is now unavailable when he was giving an interview to n.b.c. about how he combined charity work with his studies he said he feels like he's lived. a double life those are words that would come back to haunt him they will often r.t. new york. two palestinians have been killed in the protests on the israel gaza border according to palestinian officials the teenager is said to be one of the debt patients rallies have been ongoing since late march.

to. the wrist. injury after injury and as you see i sense the beginning of the beginning of the protests today the fourteenth week of the great march of return at least twenty policies have been injured by live ammunition and tear gas canisters that israeli forces continue to use the lethal force against the palestinian protesters palestinians have been protesting for more than fourteen weeks demanding demanding the right of return demanding the right of defeating the locate that has been imposed on the gaza strip by israel since the beginning of the protest says the beginning of the great march of return one hundred thirty one palestinians have been killed and more than fourteen thousand palestinians have been injured including fifty four palestinians

who got limbs amputated from the upper and lower body where the israeli forces have been using explosive bullets that have been fracture air fractured completely fracture bones and tissues and causing long lasting disability i'm now standing approximately two hundred meters away only from the fence and it's very clear that the israeli soldiers are have really stationed the protests continue palestinians continue to protest and it's very clear that they have a message to the world that they won't give up on their land they won't give up on jerusalem and they won't give up on trying to stick liberation israel says its soldiers are acting purely in self-defense televisa considers the palace. based organization hamas as terrorists and says it uses protesters to breach the border. the french government has made it learning the national anthem the is a compulsory for primary school children pupils will be required to know the

history of the national anthem and of the french flags creation they will need not just to learn the lyrics but also to sing the anthem at school the lion's share of the french public some ninety percent are in favor of making children learn the math there. we. should know this answer because it's the anthem of the french republic since seventeen ninety two so they in general learned at school i don't know why mr macro all of a sudden realize that all children should know it improves children should know it and it's school they can learn not somewhere else. i think it's always good to learn songs by heart as a child but personally i find them bloody the text is very violent. its own national anthem so it makes sense for all french people to know which is of course it's part of the french identity just like the flag the traditional french cuisine all in all it is the french culture we should know it while we just want to

the most i think the most is a somewhat aggressive song it doesn't really represent the values of freedom equality and brotherhood if i don't. i don't want. to. i don't. know you know it's a revolutionary song but quite brutal if you listen to the words. yes why not put the fridge republic is first of all a mass yes most of them yes certainly when not we are europeans to replace it immediately after this cultural opening towards europe well it's a different thing a different issue because europe it was constructed well france existed for centuries and europe is a much more recent development. dollars well

we want to join yes i know it but not as the european anthem did piaf sang it in french. and i don't know it for me neither do i and you do you know it. while learning to be french pétrus children will also be reminded of the need to be good european says they'll also be taught to recognise the european flag and anthem the ode to joy her her. it's a national movement to have it we appear to learn our previous we love to sing is a master yes but honestly as a knee it's always no need to know anything about the so-called european unseen you know that's probably isn't mr maher force may third. give you something or lead but

our viewers around it forces you to accept something else you know when you're not call friends is too small for him is a citizen of the world is a. big fan of globalism and it's a big mistake and it's a very old fashioned idea and i was really down where in russia in the united states in italia in slovenia in austria you should influence you know national and national id is back. is than to the last sixteen in the world cup and we'll bring you our updates on the tournament after this break.

the good looks of the long haul celebrate the truck was heard. with a lot of the roots of this. goes back to the precursor to period in mexico you. know gumbo a little sister to take place in the stall next to. her to the russian called all the songs does it really great. it's a really nice man and i think it's really nice to have like mixing it with a sense spirit and that all of russia can see part of me. it's. really important because it's the day when you can remember. there's all the. people that it's not with you anymore. body memory. on the part i'm very happy to be. part of this exhibition includes all the work in

the traditional mexican style you've got these frogs and these plates and these dishes and even some of these quite scary looking skulls but the best part. file great games didn't have as much a stake as some of the previous ones it was more a matter of finding out who would play whom in the last sixteen and the first games of the day colombia sent a sonic allowed with a tight one nil when japan joined the coffee closed in the last sixteen despite losing to poland. and later belgium beat england one nil in kaliningrad both already through to the next round and tunisia won two one in their match with panama but exited the tournament nonetheless many columbia fans a visiting russia for the first time and so far they've been pleasantly surprised.

legend her isto staunch cough about the its impressions of the tournament so. i'm going to withhold and i'm not a big fan of comparisons every world cup especially every team is special and for years a lot has happened for the last world cup in brazil spain arrived just champions but failed to reach the knockout stage today we see the current champions germany going home every day brings new surprises after that everyone thought it would take something extraordinary for colombia not to qualify they won but with difficulty brazil's not yet convinced me that they are a competitive team in my opinion neymar is still in shock and hasn't showed himself to be the football player i know from barcelona and it's not visible because court t.v. plays better because of the injury he doubted whether he would enter we see james rodriguez has not yet recovered so there are many factors and in addition historically europe is for europeans. news and world cup highlights for now it's showing thomas will take over the top of the al it will also to stay with the.

look i don't think that it will come up but that's a little bit of the. current american administration is raising tariffs and revising old trade agreements when america sneezes can the rest of the world of only a contracting protectionist fever.
