9:01 am
told by police as vulnerable areas or especially vulnerable areas all reask areas around the periphery to be. a very warm welcome it's four pm here in moscow and you're watching r.t. international with me they care and. now some three thousand pro my going to activists have clashed in the past two days in the german city of kenya it's leaving twenty people injured beyond arrest was prompted by the arrest of an iraqi and a syrian following the stopping of a local man on sunday after his pizza all of the reports from the city. very different scenes here on tuesday morning than we saw on monday evening if we come over here just to my left the iconic statue the iconic head of karl marx that
9:02 am
kimmitt says so she famed for this was the rallying point of that demonstration that took place on monday evening it was odd was missing was where we saw the the pushing the shoving the some pyrotechnics were thrown and we saw some people that were wounded by that some literal blood on the streets here of kim that is that have been seen and this all came about because of what happened just over to my right here you'll be able to see a small shrine a small vigil still taking place at the spot where a thirty five year old man will stand today in the early hours of sunday morning
9:03 am
this was following the the city festival here in him it's a big citywide celebration that was taking place now a twenty two year old iraqi man and the twenty three year old syrian a current lee in custody in connection with that death we also understand some other people who were involved in not fight are still in hospital receiving treatment now what this has done is it's really brought to the surface the tensions that have existed in germany since twenty fifty and the muscle rifle of people of refugees and migrants into the country the two main suspects in this killing are two people from the middle east has certainly inflame tensions and we certainly heard from the government here in germany was chancellor. angela merkel saying that she would not tolerate what she called a vigilante justice of course this is become really the epicenter of that split between the left in the right between those that believe that refugees should be
9:04 am
welcomed here and those that say that they're trying to defend the juventus almost certainly an ongoing situation hearing we were here in the early hours of the morning taking some pictures and taking the the gauging the the atmosphere and certainly it was one where people were. understandably concerned about what would come next between the people for immigration and the people against immigration. and that's a problem for our country or our thirty years i have never seen any while and refugees or have experienced anything like that. until the recent events here. situation my peril in the city you know in the city i am not from pantries so i was it came from i came from tunisia and that is a problem and so it makes
9:05 am
a crime the city where the violent unrest has been taking place has a population of about two hundred fifty thousand political analysts rain of all first believes public anger at the migration poses a real threat. but we can see that tensions grow higher and higher in respect to the migration issues related security issues and the frustration among certain parts of the population growth. seemingly is not possible with the existing security system also the judicial system to probably take care of the growing challenges becomes a real threat that citizens. are already really frustrated and impressed. into the streets and. try to. look as if they were refugees or migrants and attack the.

hopes of a fresh lead in the trump russia collusion probe power of been damaged house after the attorney for the u.s. president's former lawyer backpedaled on his earlier claims he now says his client has no proof of any illicit connections and his teleporting reports from new york. the attorney representing trump's lawyer michael cohen has been going around the mainstream media indicating that he's getting ready to release a bombshell about trump russia collusion now the press has been salivating like a hungry hound anxious to get their hands on the smoking gun the trump russia probe has been waiting for i can tell you that. mr cohen has knowledge on certain subjects that should be of interest to the special counsel and is more than happy to tell the special counsel all that he knows davis isn't just speaking in generalities he said he had information about the d.n.c.
9:07 am
being hacked he also said he had information about the now infamous meeting between donald trump jr and two russian nationals supposedly about digging up information about hillary clinton now he says he's willing to share this information with the special counselor except now he's backtracking he says it's all a big misspeak i should have been more clear including with you that i could not independently confirm what happened i regret my ira now the attorney for michael cohen isn't just retracting his own words he seems to be throwing cold water on something that c.n.n. treated like a breaking news explosion sources with knowledge tell myself and call that michael cohen claims then candidate donald trump knew in advance about the june twenty sixth meeting in trump tower crucially these sources tell us that cohen is willing to make that assertion to the special counsel wabbit moeller the reporting of this story got mixed up so michael cohen does not have information that president trump
9:08 am
knew about the trump tower meeting with the russians beforehand or you know. c.n.n. stands by its report why let the truth get in the way of a good story but for donald trump who has been screaming the f. word for months that word is fake by the way this fits his narrative perfectly michael cohen's. clarified the record saying his client does not know if president trump knew about the trump tower meeting out of which came nothing the answer is that i did not know about the meeting just another phony story by the fake news media so why is this such a big deal well if the story had panned out it would have meant that finally bob muller had some significant evidence it's been over a year and a half since the special counsel has been sent out to investigate issues related to trump and russia collusion so far he has uncovered some foul play from some former trouble so see it but nothing related to russia it looks like michael collins lawyer had everyone convinced that finally there would be some real evidence
9:09 am
surfacing but alas it looks like we got faked out again still no evidence back to square one but it looks like the investigation has no sign of stopping. r.t. new york. a us presidential candidate an award winning war correspondent a former trumpet finds that the u.k. opposition leader and the rock star on the face of it they wouldn't appear to have all that much in common but according to one blog they are all supporters of so-called saddam it goes down if explains. labeling people as in fashion has been for the past couple of years in fact populist mainstream deplorable or when it comes to syria and a scientist like a sadist to but it also supports the syrian president at least that seems to be the logic behind an index of names recently claude together i chose primarily this term rather than the narrower term pro assad because some of the public figures in this
9:10 am
list explicitly denied being pro assad but still persistently repeat coraline's of regime propaganda narratives steve baron and glenn greenwald boris johnson norm chomsky let's say the chances of coming across any other list banding these people together are slim you published an article full of lies because you're too lazy and or malicious to care that you're doing it i never defended the assad regime in my life this is astonishing how many useful directory of people defending this sudra sheen what an absolute joke in fact the author was quite meticulous coming up with a ten point quote unquote scale of a side ism and having read through those i figured that maybe i should offer my amble assistance in completing this list as by no means does it look finished take this point implying the west has somehow supported al nusra or isis i think we're backing people we have no idea who they are the rebels we call of the rebels the
9:11 am
patriotic rebels we have no idea lot of people think you know that they are isis how about expanding it with the whole staff of the u.s. state department and they denied entry to the leader of the white helmets over security concerns and after all being mean to them is a capital offense to any individual in any group. suspected of. ties or relations with extremist groups or was that we had believed to be a security threat to united states we would act accordingly but as for those who are already on. interviewed a couple of them document is just ridiculous in many ways but it's also deeply worrying and concerning it is part of a witch hunt against people who don't accept the government line on military intervention in the middle east supporters based on no facts whatsoever. really.
9:12 am
takes no account whatsoever my actual views on. what we're looking at here just with this blacklist is something published by someone who we had never heard of before totally obscure figure is just like comical level of research and it's being promoted by the same people who have been not only promoting western intervention in syria but who have been dedicated for the past two years to attacking and smearing anyone who gets in their way over the list was a bit of a nobody before giving man birth to his catalogue but as its popularity swells let the public shaming commence. with the general election looming in sweden right wing supporters gaining momentum as i made a spate of arson attacks in cities where gangs torched cars almost two thousand vehicles have been targeted across the country since january early this month more
9:13 am
than one hundred were hit in a single night. forgot most of it doesn't have of the question has to be asked of those people adversely want to hack where you're doing what and forget who do you think you are born or if you destroyed the whole area or the neighbors for the children on their way to preschool you have to see burnt out cards that are going to cause them awfully hard response from society any of us or should i say is no we are for national visited one trouble district with a local journalist. and of. course. i don't. know how long this will of this global source but we're going. right now we're driving to the southern part of stockholm the swedish capital to
9:14 am
one of the areas called by police as found the rebel area or especially vulnerable area or risk area how the refer to it but in the media very often they call these neighborhoods right now around sixty one of them officially stood by police as no go so and he with me now swedish journalist tang free thank you so much for being my night. no guns are in sweden seriously of course or go dark. you will have a problem if you go there with the camera or if you're. from here is swedish vulnerable areas have been grabbing headlines over she t.v. and car burnings the latter has nearly double and every ten years why do they burn the car and i think it's like to show police that there were called for all of
9:15 am
their real openings. lot of people are going low because you know if you could walk in because you have a parking lot with what the cost of war and you put one coral for you of course it will spread to the next door an extra. just a common thing that people leave those areas they care to serve us they make some more money there they always immediately difficult to get all told to keep still go with the school year for a. passport but discussion is a true about if it's available so all of those are just sort of official of the city give out for example source. he called it though it's a go go so you know so you were. holiday i used to live. over said with the police the never figured out where they got out today out of course. after the police car so they had to call for what you call the. truck to get the way the police got when
9:16 am
it was start to prove it's a go go so named for high criminality rate theories have also in reputation for drug trade. terrorists are well placed where they sell up to drugs. people are killed literally just go out there are. people standing here and ask for what i like even if you are blind you will see what they are dealing drugs it's not like they are hiding it but the people who have. every overt either violent that i thought of to. know the good looking to play the no or the job market even the money no money but it. was not that we should ban you may know. that but what we've seen across sweden's vulnerable amy's looks quite tense just like the country's prime minister has described on the movie
9:17 am
a small cheese never agreed ninety tend to blame the massive number of any claims on the situation. people think that it's related to these two thousand and fifteen immigration crisis but no this is because of immigration we have twenty years ago a lot of these people are criminal or second generation immigrants the parents didn't see what to be from arctic you could say about the worst is still ahead of us. while some locals have dubs the troubled areas that no go zones although police prefer vulnerable areas they characterized by a high crime rate sounds social exclusion social scientist adrian coughlan pope believes the roots of the problem lays with the poverty migrants are facing. now you understand that look how let it go at it because it does go to what we have. not. sat down my grounds to get into the labor market so that's that's
9:18 am
a big brawl and here we are. in there making you know. political. party the first time he story. from being social democrats and and getting into very very kind of he writes new york i not for a political. situation here so also of course he said we've got a lot. still to come in the prior crown top military officials in myanmar are accused of genocide and crimes against humanity that's coming up after this short break.
9:19 am
but how to do you know something. they put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so you want to be president. or somehow want. to write for us it's like the. three people. interested in the why. do you think they should.
9:20 am
welcome back we're to kill us misinformation that's how the u.s. led coalition in syria has branded every port on our website called they article about a syrian refugee camp or simply quoting the russian foreign ministry america on looks at the accuracy of the claims in question. colonel sean ryan a spokesman for operation here and resolve the us led coalition against feisal she said that we were pushing quote ridiculous information after reading one of the articles of syria to be distracted by ridiculous misinformation from our tree the coalition is focused on defeat isis mission and we continue to work with go out for us to secure the el temps region in southern syria the article in question was in an op ed that a quote from the russian ministry of foreign affairs who asserted that i still had
9:21 am
infiltrated the group on refugee camp in syria and that the us government was fully aware of it which claimed as a coalition support to be misinformation about the presence of feisal in the camp or that the u.s. was aware of it the look on refugee camp is located in the southwestern all done so region in syria in an area controlled by the international coalition it's one of the largest refugee camps in syria hosting tens of thousands of refugees and islamic state in filtration is well documented the last un security council report braced fears over potential. thoughts from inside the camp densely populated camp in southern syrian arab republic contains some eighty thousand internally displaced persons including families of eisel fighters a situation which member states fear might generate a new eisel cells and group on campus been hit by at least for sure terrorist attacks over the past three years the islamic state has claimed to treat them in
9:22 am
fact the i subtract one from the church danish government to close as poorly as it can and concern over possible infiltration is one of the reasons that jordan has cited for being its borders closed syrian refugees. people. who an n.p.c. sought to fill the camp for a story they were told it would be too dangerous because of the presence of islamic state fighters just say so or at least it's meant to be but the jordanian military pilots who took us in wouldn't fly over it and the isis fighters these people fled from are inside it so the presence of ice on the camp hasn't been a secret washington stated goal in syria is the defeat of islamic state terrorists so it's hard to believe that their presence in an area controlled by the international coalition would go undetected if the u.s.
9:23 am
military isn't aware of the issue your team is more than ready to provide open source information party has reached out operation here at result to find out what part of the article was misinformation but we've yet to hear from them what's the international would like to know what part of this article was ridiculous misinformation if there were no ice or fighters in the area what is the mission of the us military base in the region given the stated goal of all us operations is the defeat of isis we look forward to your answer. the un says the military officials in myanmar should be prosecuted for genocide accusing them of the graveyard crimes against a hinge of muslims the minority group which numbers around a million at the start of two thousand and seventeen are not regarded as citizens in the southeast asian country the patterns of gross human rights violations rape gang rape sexual slavery forced nudity and mutilation of the greatest crimes under
9:24 am
international law didn't. receive any cooperation from the myanmar government we are deeply disappointed that state cancer down through san suu kyi has not used the position or her moral authority to stem prevent or condemn the unfolding events in the state over the years and sounds to achieve the country's defacto leader has repeatedly denied any ethnic cleansing has taken place she also blocked the u.n. fact finding mission from accessing the area in twenty seventeen or despite that she's been seen as something of a hero in the west she previously won a nobel peace prize and a u.s. congressional gold medal hollywood even made a film of her life story while top world leaders called her an inspiration. power of your example which has been the inspiration of people all around the world including myself a fearless champion of human rights and democracy your example your
9:25 am
perseverance and your beliefs is a huge inspiration to people across britain and people around the world. clearly you will be playing a key role in your country's future for many years to come thank you for your inspiring message. well ahead of the u.n. fact finding mission in myanmar zuki darusman believes the country's leader has ignored the atrocities in the region. when you use terms like ethnic cleansing which i think is a little extreme i don't think there's ethnic cleansing going on i think ethnic cleansing is too strong an expression to use for what's happening with the state council or. would have been able to do more than what she has done. he was clearly derelict of her responsibilities and just a disappointment that if you don't use moral authority. to do something about
9:26 am
this you have to start to stand. up policies that need to be there to address. the u.n. considers the range of the most persecuted minority in the world and has called the situation a human rights catastrophe at least three hundred ninety two of their villages have been destroyed and thousands killed as a result of the military offensives the u.n. also said women had been gang raped and children assaulted. but here at r.t. we love to hear your thoughts on our stories they do get in touch by following us on social media and even your comments that will be back at the top of the hour with the latest to see that.
