well can you watching r.t. international works just gone six pm here in moscow. putin says he is ready to travel to washington to meet don't worry trump he was speaking at the brics economic forum. reports now from the event in south africa. putin's media conference became something of a final note of this three day break summit here in johannesburg now the russian leader talking to the press focused a lot on what was achieved in such a short period of time here in south africa he talked about the deals or the agreements that were signed here but when it came to questions from journalists well somewhat inevitably the subject of his relationship with donald trump the u.s. leader came up there is of course in the context of their meeting in helsinki the question was basically whether or not latimer putin was ready for more of such meetings with his american counterparts and will answer was yes.
11:02 am
we're ready for such meetings we are ready to invite president trying to russia he already has such an invitation i told him about it and i'm ready to go to washington if the proper environment for work is established in general we'll have meetings on the sidelines of other upcoming forums. donald trump is quite a controversial figure of course but the russian president gave him some credit for putting his money where his words according to the russian president donald trump is at least trying to follow through on the promises he had made before he was elected back in twenty sixteen speaking about the bric summit as a whole its main focus was on trade wars and ironically enough donald trump was the subject of that is well because after all it is washington that is so trigger happy on imposing new tariffs on the e.u. and pretty much all pleased according to you i've spoken to a number of south african ministers here in johannesburg i've spoken to a number of experts in the euro they've all said that well brics nations economies
11:03 am
were in a way to a certain extent damaged by the tariffs imposed by washington but as always every cloud has a silver lining and so in this case it's the brics nations here in johannesburg. stressing how these should stick together how these should bond with each other more and work closely so basically these sanctions are bringing the brakes member states closer to each other and also are encouraging other nonmember states to dealing more with the brics nations instead of world seeking trade partners elsewhere so no doom and gloom here in johannesburg in these three days none of that scene and with the whole summit wrapping up on a rather upbeat note putin added his voice to that you're going to die of there will meanwhile the white house has said that donald trump is open to the idea of visiting moscow president putin's invitation. in other news tonight it does

seem the wiki leaks chief gene in the sand may have outstayed his welcome to the ecuadorian embassy in london that after the country's president said he will need to leave the building eventually a son she's been holed up there since twenty twelve to avoid arrest and potential extradition to the u.s. but we look for a person to stay confined like that for so long tantamount to human rights violation the only concern is that i have never agreed with the sundries activity i don't agree with hacking private e-mails to be able to obtain information no matter how valuable it is exposed certain undesirable acts of governments all people this isn't the first time we've heard speculation of a sergeant six year tenure. or an embassy coming to an end it is the first time such himself come from such a high official the president of ecuador himself songs of course has been a asylum seeker effectively at the embassy since two thousand and twelve. six years
11:05 am
one month ago afraid that he would be extradited to the united states where he's wanted of course for publicly leaking those military and diplomatic cables which celebs war crimes and human rights violations though of course all this comes in the light of those reports about negotiations between the ecuadorian go. and the british government to come to some sort of conclusion to bring this matter to an end the u.k. government has denied that this issue specifically was discussed during president rose recent visit to the u.k. but they have confirmed that negotiations have generally taken place and are continuing to take place to resolve the matter lamoriello himself it has to be said is not a big fan of assad she's criticized him describing him as a stone in the shoe as a hacker while you labeled as an inherited problem inherited because of course it was granted asylum under the presidency of rafael correa now though from with this
11:06 am
administration it has been far from smooth sailing for the whistleblower popular for a person to stay confined like that for so long tantamount to human rights violations the only concern i have is that i have never agreed with the sounders activity i don't agree with hacking private emails to be able to obtain information no matter how valuable it is to expose certain undesirable acts of governments all people of course six years of confinement have taken their toll on assad to have been concerns about his welfare just last month in fact foreign office minister alan duncan expressed those concerns to parliament stating assurances would be sought about his welfare should he leave the embassy a solid internet access was recently cut off and the visits available to him by third parties have also been limited leaving very much questions both from the public and the media about just how and when this six year saga will finally come to an end i
11:07 am
. for. the government check the oil tradition. they keep ever written so i want to be diplomatic mission decided to give them a try to. pull out. all our.

transition was granted on the ground on december twenty seventh he didn't or income is empowered to grant nationality techniques. because of great regret the judicial remains in the control embassy it's about this literally walked out of the embassy and gave himself up to british just. a former and why five intelligence officer and the mashonas says that this development in the stange case is a bad sign for the wiki leaks boss. i think it's an worrying for us all and yes there's no doubt about it because the incoming president and i could all seems to see him as a problem he's also under pressure from the americans and from the international
11:09 am
monetary fund to raise funding chris' country and apparently it's been speculated reporters that been threats that this might be withheld if they don't if he does not resolve the song's case but i think he's right to be worried about being extradited on with the united states where his organization wiki leaks has already been. categorized by michael compare as a hostile intelligence agency where politicians been calling for his assassination for the death penalty for the rest of his life in prison and all for publishing just as any other media organization publishes so i think the concern is what the british will do and of course the british government isn't also very difficult position with practices they can't afford to annoy their american cousins too much at this juncture of british history so it's a bit of a mess every which way. the un's human rights sure you've heard the west african nation of cameroon to investigate alleged abuses by the country's armed forces and it comes after video emerged of what appears to be the extra judicial execution of
11:10 am
two women and two women friends and a member of rights groups have confirmed that the military was responsible for the atrocity or warning there you might find the following video obtained by the intercept distressing. remarkably bottled of of all the irish. drug. makers. is it what. it is fair market to make it. now these shocking images show soldiers from cameroon executing women and children now a uniformed demand is narrating their actions he says that the women and children are part of the boko haram terrorist group after the first round of bullets one of the men wearing military fatigues acknowledges that one of the children is still alive so he shoots again first the government claims that the video was fake news
11:11 am
but now it's been reported that four soldiers have been detained keep in mind that cameroon is a key ally of the united states in the war on terror cameroon is advice to partner in the fights against boko haram isis which suffered another violent extremist organizations in the lake chad basin region a relationship with cameroon is designed to promote stability and security within the region now cameroon host hundreds of u.s. troops and the us drone base and at this point the usa continues to supply cameroon with military planes and other assistance even though it's been pointed out by the ambassador to the country that the military has been involved in targeted killings there's going to start the government to paris to do so every executions the your team to take the people. since two lawyers to their families even to this is. now the u.s. state department has expressed concerns over the video that seems to show one of
11:12 am
its key allies committing a savage act of brutality we call on the government of cameroon to investigate thoroughly and transparently the events depicted in the video make its findings public and if cameroonian military personnel were involved in this atrocity hold them accountable this is hardly the first time that cameroon has raised the concerns of human rights groups and amnesty international report documented over one hundred cases of murder torture and abuse we used witness testimony and photographs from the social media accounts of. to digitally moto the site and locate incidents within it the legs if they stay taney abound in a stress position known as the position. detainees report being held in this way for days at a time and at first there were reports that the u.s. state department had temporarily suspended aid to the country but the pentagon was quick to dispel those rumors there has been no change the assistance the department
11:13 am
of defense provides to cameroon as a direct result of violence in the engle friend regions of cameroon the united states constantly tells us that its foreign policies are about defending freedom it accuses geo political rivals of violating human rights but it looks like cameroon a fast friend of the pentagon has anything but a clean record label mop and r.t. washington d c what research and i'm staying international this kind heman rights violations by the country's army are systematic and go unpunished. it is indeed one of two most shocking and despicable videos that i've ever watched in my own entire career we spent a lot of time at amnesty to analyze d.d.r. we have collected an testimony seven from for our sources underground and we have compounded these testimonies with the analysis of our experts including military experts in terms of weapons for example you can hardly be mistaken. the video
11:14 am
depicts uniformed personnel from the can literally an army weapon such as in the star and twenty one which is a sara being made weapon consistent with those used by the coming to an army we have very surprised and shocked by the fact that the minister of communication s dismissed the d.d.s. fake news even before launching an investigation on the case and less yes recorded systematic torture extrajudicial executions. arbitrary arrests cases of enforced disappearance and all these cases are never been dealt with. we asked the office of the country's prime minister to confirm whether the government is launching an investigation although so far we haven't had a response. by clashes have erupted between muslim worshipers and
11:15 am
israeli security forces in jerusalem near temple mount a site that's holy to both jews and muslims. was. several explosions were heard with smoke covering part of the holy site israeli police in muslim worshippers were throwing stones and fireworks out of them and so they were. with riot control measures including stun grenades local radio also report the police blocked it seats causing further unrest several people are said to have been injured in the clashes. now still ahead on your macro and seems uneasy about a potential new trade agreement between europe and washington we'll have the details on why just after the break.
11:16 am
you know world big partisan movie lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bats and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. with no make this manufactured consensus to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the famous merry go round lifts only the one percent. we can
11:17 am
all middle of the room sick. room in the real news room. again an increasing number of high profile paper landing themselves in hot water over their old tweets but in the us it does seem that your political affiliations were to take just a much trouble you'll be in his party boy. it's become a sport watch someone climb to the top and then knock them off the perch using their own less than savory quotes like t.v. . who lost her long time job a.b.c. following a very racist tweet it also happened to katie mchugh a journalist who used to write for the breitbart website after her anti muslim
11:18 am
tweets came to light the same fate be felled the sisters stars of the go with no job instagram account they used to have a talk show but it was canceled because they were old. and islamophobia tweets resurfaced on top of that left leaning liberal media outlet found out that the sisters have a conservative news pundit for a mother who likes donald trump a lot in fact one thing all those disgraced stars have in common is that they're politically conservative although recently the liberal camp has been hit by a string of very similar scandals james gotten big hollywood film director made guardians of the galaxy turns out ten years ago he was making jokes about rape and paedophilia his bosses at disney had to sack him the creator of reckon morty and host of the harmon town podcast dan harmon he had to apologize after an old sketch where he rapes
11:19 am
a baby doll called the attention of the toy to spare the host of the daily show travel no recently faced criticism when his old sketch poking fun at aboriginal women in australia cropped up online who dug all this up the conservatives to find some politically incorrect skeletons in the liberals closets might you know of it all right blog keen to get revenge on the left was the one who found the james gun tweet he's loving the fact that the lefties are getting a taste of their own outraged medicine. i enjoyed just the wrong human visceral reaction of jumping into the arena and just swinging the hammer and seeing what is left over afterwards twitter is just modern day gladiatorial combat but there is a slight difference in how the conservatives online misdemeanors and the left wing liberals offensive jokes are playing out trevor noah and dan harmon have managed to hold on to their jobs james gunn did get fired but
11:20 am
a lot of the so-called liberal elite standing up for him james gunn is one of the most loving caring good natured people i have ever met he's made mistakes we all have i'm not ok with what's happening to him james gunn i think you for your tell and your decency and your evolution as a man i'm pausing myself to take everything in the forest because of term i just want everyone to know i love all members of my geo t.v. family some have even started a petition to rehire him the choice is fair wasn't quite as forgiving when it came to roseanne barr's hateful language shame on you the real roseanne and a.b.c. network not a single apology can get me to respect your despicable racist character and racism in mainstream media now i'm hurt embarrassed and disappointed the racist and
11:21 am
distasteful comments from rosie are inexcusable a.b.c. and disney do the right thing there is still boned reason the age of trump that cannot be crossed thank you for putting values above money roseanne herself has picked up on it i'm disgusted to read all the support for james guns paedophile jokes as the same people supported blackly sue me for a joke they didn't even understand digging up dirt is one thing but it looks like it's more likely to stick if you're on the right side of the political spectrum. well you know there now the issue over what to do with british citizens who went to fight for jihadist groups in the middle east is once again in focus in the u.k. that's after the appointment of a new director of public prosecutions max hill who was once slammed by an m.p. is a politically correct snowflake well hill first hit the headlines when he was working as an independent review of u.k. terror laws and argued some should be scrapped it was slammed for meeting with the
11:22 am
organization cage group which some have accused of defending islam is the hills own stance and jadis is being branded scandalously feeble by some in the media here's one of his more controversial statements really we should be looking towards reintegration and moving away from a notion that we're going to lose a generation due to this travel those who travelled out of the sands of naivety possibly with some brainwashing on the way possibly in their meat teams we have to leave space for those individuals to be diverted away from the criminal courts while my colleague neil harvey put the issue up for debate. there has to be holistic approach through problems of using the judicial system for people who have committed a crime by joining proscribed organization and a rehabilitation program i think recognizes that and his review of the terrorism strategy is bringing holistic piece together our counter radicalization and i counter terrorist has been absolutely
11:23 am
a joke we have had the government listen to. what it is that he was trying to anyone else anyone else finished i'll finish doing my bit so we have a situation we've got british kids in syria being radicalized now we don't know who's committed what crimes now i do we bring them back home all we are going to take them out with. strikes which are about twenty percent accurate or drone strikes which ten years of use in afghanistan or pakistan show about their seven percent accurate indeed no drones are two percent accurate. about ten twenty percent accurate you're lucky you're you're going wrong and. i'm going to get analysis from doing alternative facts. i just want to listen to a sound bite of boris johnson of course we legally justify those drone strike assess nations as preventative to stop future acts of terror in syria but the mosques the reality that killing them is also richard beauty of payback for the
11:24 am
film the executions of innocent people is that the right motive for what was the foreign secretary talking about basically an official government stance a vengeance is not appropriate what we are doing if we follow mr barr is john's the strategies that we are really french are using our justice system to the usa because usa has a death penalty but the reality is that we are using our sovereignty and telling the world that britain is not competent enough to really. sort of put through criminals through the criminal justice system. british citizens we need to deal with our rubbish we've got to bring them home if they are capable of being de radicalized and we can deal with them like they do in some of the nordic countries or some the scandinavian countries and we integrate them into british society great how do you go in and arrest these people bring them back in the most little police corps to be put. to them do through our judicial system they're in
11:25 am
a conflict zone they're a threat to this country so the legitimate military targets we do not recorded we do not count civilian casualties we do not count collateral damage if there is believed to be very responsibility they respond no no no no no no no no no on the first series in parliament it was absolutely clear the m.p.'s came forward said we have no record we have no evidence and the reason is we do not count them i just want to sort of move on to a little bit different as you know in the last few days over four hundred white helmets activist in syria has been taken out under escort by israel to jordan and there is some expectation that they would be given british nationality are they european nationalities these white helmets were working hand in hand with ice and terrorist in syria at the end of the day on the one hand we are saying that terrorists should be taken out by drones then and are the sort of firepower but on
11:26 am
and at the same time we let go of over four hundred white head miss terrorist who are operating in syria to come back to the u.k. not only. to sort of do it to be radicalized but to be given nationality and to roam freely as some humanitarian workers. it was you know it's international banks and company deceiving we'll be back with more news from the headlines in thirty five. four men are sitting in a car when the fifth gets shot in the head. all four different versions of what happened one of them is on the death row
