czech republic is a point blank refusing to take any more likely end of the two have come together because they believe that they can look past him a new position to the current status quo in the new look at new ways to look at some of the biggest now over to my creation crisis in two thousand and eighteen the figures show that so far around eighty two thousand migrants have come to europe across land from the sea in addition to that fifteenth fifteen hundred people are feared to be missing or have died in the crossing in the mediterranean.

this migration crisis continues to cause a huge rift here in europe and it looks like it's once again going to be one of the biggest platforms coups in division in europe as we head to the elections just in eight months time the question is which side is going to win out. the last stronghold of rebel on terror groups in syria the northern province of idlib is surrounded by army forces with a decisive battle looming the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov has warned that the u.s. seemingly prefers regime change rather than ridding the area of terrorists. it would suggest that it counts now when the us is steering the situation around it glib we want to know how can damascus have chemical weapons if the us france and great britain destroy them last year. or more we have the impression that us threats against damascus are aimed at preventing terrorists from being expelled

they're. not getting those it's going to learn the chemical weapons provocation which is being prepared is aimed at keeping al nusra that wish them to kill you. we believe these egotistical unilateral political games are counterproductive we believe all the conflict should be solved multilaterally with open contacts between the countries including regional countries. as tensions mount in the russian center for syrian reconciliation so it's received intelligence on the livery of toxic substances that the province it claims the materials been brought in with the help of the white helmets rescue group for use in a false flag operation russia has previously warned militants are preparing to stage a chemical attack r.t. is what i have has more now on the potential escalation of the in libya. the stage is set for a final and it looks like a bloody battle the battle for aid lib tens of thousands of islamists rebels

from all over syria and the world against the syrian army and its allies no wonder then that the stakes here like never before i q stations provocation and chemical scandal it's not an even fight the syrian army is stronger which means jihad ists need all the help they can get from abroad. following the alleged goot a chemical attack russia's warning that rebels will try to stage as similar incident in he'd like to draw the u.s.

france and britain in get them to hit a sad again russia says an incident is imminent especially after the u.s. and allies jointly stated that they would act if it looks like as had launched another chemical attack that's almost an invitation to do so says moscow it would suggest that it now when the u.s. is steering the situation around we want to know how can damascus have chemical weapons if the u.s. france and great britain destroyed them last year you know what the u.s. answer is we never said that from. the chemical weapons provocation which is being prepared is aimed at keeping al nasra they're counting on using it against the so-called regime as they call it it's do or die for the jihad ists rebels nowhere left to run nothing left to lose and their spawn. the west the gulf which have pumped billions upon billions of dollars into a cause that's on its last legs damascus and moscow a trying to work out

a deal terror juice baps avoid the bloodshed but the job just aren't up for it syria russia adamant this swamp of terror and zealotry has no future the. group nature this is the last place for the terrorists so from also points of view this abscess should be removed of course what everybody is fearful of is escalation given the us russian military buildup in the region everyone has a gun pointed at each other and given that this is it the final act of the syrian war the urge to shoot might just be overwhelming. donald trump has accused google of bias the president claimed only negative coverage about him was being promoted and he vowed to take action. google search results for trump news shows only the viewing reporting of fake news media in other

words they have it rigged for me and others so that almost all stories and news is banned fake c.n.n. is prominent republican conservative and fair media shuts out illegal ninety six percent of results on trump used for national leftwing media very dangerous google and others is oppressing voices of conservatives and hiding information in news that is good they are controlling what we can on cannot see this is a very serious situation will be addressed. the white house has not yet given any response to the issue although we did ask for comment that's the spot trump's accusations attracting plenty of media attention so the first time of course the tech giant search has them has come under fire research and studies have shown google can alter results or for its users also google itself admitted automatic algorithms can sometimes have issues since they're created by inherently biased

humans. or google has addressed that trumps accusations claiming there's no political agenda to its search engine and its results are not biased towards any political ideology let's go live now to political and media analyst for more on this thanks for joining us good to have you on as always what do you make of claims i mean he's got a reputation for saying some pretty outrageous things here is he making too much of a deal or is this is that actually rigged against him. well there's a more interesting question not that that's not interesting but let's assume argue one doe that everything he's saying is true that everything is biased that that the same amount of filter metrics are misapplied or applied differently for one particular ideology or another let's just assume that to be true the next issue is what do d. does a search engine have what legal jurisdiction does anybody have to enforce or to

change that and is there is this merely a somebody just. accepting or addressing or adopting a particular phrase a ology or or frame of reference now in the united states when it came to the airwaves since nineteen forty nine there's always been this attempt at making traditional airwaves fair through the fairness doctrine and its later iterations so the question that people have is not whether if it's true or not but assuming it's true assuming that there is absolutely bias what your station does the government have what can be done and is this a new and new arina do these massive social media platforms. represent and achieve a place in history that is heretofore unknown or in the old days we would have newspapers or we would have in an individual media source this is a this is

a library it's an international means of sourcing data in some cases the only information that people have to give an analogy let's assume i own a company that makes a particular type of thing and that is used in ninety five percent of all newspapers when newspapers were popular and i decide not to sell to certain new. papers because they may not like their content could anybody claim that a private citizen and interfering with the first of an expression which normally is allowed only that protection by the government or is it so enormous do i have a position that's different than other says you have a good an interesting point because google of course claims it never writes results according to their political bias but in fact just last thoughts of it said it's going to be rank all website despite doing that which is also interesting is that.

well i have there's different ways it's interesting the methodology deal ranking shelving eye shadow banding algorithm. if i have a library and i put your book and a part of the library that nobody ever knows about and the base bed that nobody has access to but i say no it's here in the library we have it nobody's ever seen it nobody has access to it you know we're getting into again a new world the law always lags behind technology nobody drafters of our constitution the bill of rights never imagine that we would have this so if i for example say let's say the opposite rather than deal ranking you let's say i am so well in love theoretically assuming arguing with your particular ideology that i push you and i can type in anything wisdom your name comes up brilliant your name

comes up well that's a positive type of bias and that's another aspect of this is that this person issues but what's going to be interesting to see is how the courts deal with this and how the international community does this and are these organizations so great and so large and so rob the naggy and in their colossal size that that trade agreements or trade considerations can be implemented it's going to be fascinating to see we're out of time unfolds certainly a political and media analyst lot always good to have you on thanks for your time today here at auto international. stay tuned to hear more stories coming your way just after this for a short break. join

me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics sports business i'm sure business i'll see you then. seemed wrong. just don't. get to shape our. active. engagement because the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

welcome back to our international u.s. military drills with south korea which little trump surprisingly canceled following the north korea summit in singapore back on the table. you know we took the step to suspend several of the largest exercises as a good faith measure coming out of the singapore summit we have no plans at this time to suspend any more exercises north korea has repeatedly said the military games were a provocation targeting the country trumps position though caused concern in south korea and while the president seemed to imply all drills were halted that may not have been the case. we will be stopping the war games which will save us a tremendous amount of money unless and until we see the the future negotiation is

not going along like it should we suspended several of the largest exits riders but we did not suspend the rest so there are ongoing extras all the time on the peninsula the region you've not heard much about the mid north korea could not in any way misinterpret those as somehow breaking faith with the. kurds joined by the director of the oxen the biggest crisis for shirts in the shoot mark album thanks for joining us so good to have you on trump said he was going to hold all the games didn't seem to imply they have been running all along what's the situation exactly what will this lead to. what i think what it's really about is as you remember my point it was supposed to go in the last few days to north korea in order to carry on the negotiations and in if you like bring

something concrete back to washington some indication that the north koreans were actually going to denuclearize americans and that hasn't happened trump cancel his meet and i think trump in a sense is reverting to his. pressure tactics if you remember we might have thought a year ago that we were on the brink of a war with north korea as it was beginning to test very long range missiles as well as nuclear warheads and then we had the dramatic sunshine policy from washington where president trump as well as south korean president met camille commotion and seemed to be able to personally negotiate some kind of track towards a reconciliation of this problem and so i think in a sense feeling that the north koreans have not been moving as rapidly in the direction of disarmament as trump would want to perhaps trump exaggerated the degree to which north korea would disarm without steps by the united states to match it. by step two to remove american forces american nuclear forces i mean trumps rhetoric after that summit was so positive he said it's been so successful

so many are steps forward he did so the games would be restarted if the negotiations failed so is this what we're seeing a view that negotiations have been futile. i think what he's sort of saying is you better show me some steps which i can then say we're moving in the right direction he's putting pressure on north korea he's also in a sense putting pressure on south korea because of course the south korean president is due to meet. in september south korea wants to open a liaison office on the border once in a way probably to regenerate new economic contacts and so the warm a relationship in south korea and north korea has been a sense of positive aspect of trumps diplomacy but now of course it begins to raise the question of a split possibly trungpa want to go back to a more aggressive posture to pressure north korea and the south korean government may say we have perceived benefits from a calming of the atmosphere and improve the atmosphere there's also of course the

issue of countries like russia and particularly china who are central to the u.s. strategy of sanctioning north korea russia and china voted for the u.n. sanctions and if china for instance feels under pressure from america over its trade policies or then it may not be so helpful to trump so the issue is becoming more complicated ok. for the crisis research institute mark allen thanks so much for joining us today out of time a great to get your take on that story today. that's it for this hour for myself on the team see you again in thirty minutes for the latest global news updates. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the lawn. they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or somehow want to be brits.

that's it like to be for us this is what before us three in the morning can't be good that i'm interested always in the waters of my. question. with all make goods manufactured consent to constant to the public will. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the financial merry go round it's certainly the one percent. we can all middle of the room sick. room the real news room.

this is phone bus broadcasting around the world from washington d.c. i'm part chilton and thank you for joining us coming up today we look at the market reaction to the trade to the from yesterday both stocks and commodities and we consider if u.s. markets are topping off and a rebalancing might be in order where would it investors move their money now you must want to think markets joins us from london to discuss and ride hailing companies are in the news as d.d. and make major moves that could impact their future parties alex what pilotage ways and from toronto plus u.s. regulators are getting rather rough in a good way on bad actors in the proposal currently specced gary to wall the special counsel it's cat mooches rosenman will be with us for the latest on that and more and with sports betting now legal as a result of a major decision by the u.s.

supreme court we get an update on how the business is flourishing and how one gaming company is making it easier than ever for folks to place their bets are two sports correspondent steve christophe host auntie's up and deal with details lots to get. let's go market reactions to the attempted rewrite of the north american free trade are in the headlines today as nest egg sets a new record nasdaq the. tech heavy stock index broke eight thousand at level yesterday powered by familiar names such as netflix and google that have had a very good twenty eight team on the stock front and the dow jones industrial average hit twenty six thousand yesterday that's a first time since february more broadly markets seem to react favorably to yesterday's announcement on a potential bilateral u.s. mexico trade agreement that u.s. president donald trump suggested would replace nafta treasury secretary steve i'm a new ssion hailed the bilateral agreement earlier today. this is seriously as

a c.e.o. it's about. it's about intellectual property it's about market access it's about financial services it's about see there there are there are many many ways that this deal helps american workers and american consumers and it's very important to remember one thing they'll be more trade going on as a result of this deal. and while on a conference call with mr trump yesterday the mexican president suggested can a stay in the nafta renegotiating writing process mr trump largely ignored questions from reporters offering only sort of a we will see response to that then canadian foreign minister chrystia freeland is in washington today for talks on including canada in the nafta rewrite while mr trump is position the u.s. to leave canada out relevant congressional committee chairs insist that mr trump is not legally authorized under this so-called trade promotion authority or t.p.a.

to negotiate an agreement that excludes canada will talk more about this tomorrow. and for the second time in as many weeks the german foreign minister heikal moscow's call for the european union to move away from the so-called swift system of international financial payments swift is an acronym for the society for worldwide financial telecommunications the system has been used over the years to guard against money laundering and particularly to guard against terrorist group financial transactions more than eleven thousand financial institutions and roughly two hundred ations used within a message is said every single second of every day the concern of a joint german foreign minister is that the united states might be able to dictate which nations can use with that particularly keen now if the us is set to reimpose economic sanctions on iran which were lifted in two thousand and fifteen beginning on november fourth of this year other nations like china russia and those in the e.u. which continue to support the twenty fifteen nuclear deal with iran which seeks to

quell iran's nuclear ambitions want to ensure that the u.s. can't simply ban financial transactions with iranian entities and those outside doing business with iranian companies some companies as we've reported like the french energy company tow tile and the car maker peugeot are an among others have already ceased doing business with iran for fear of having u.s. retaliatory measures play. upon them and while the foreign ministers call for european unity has been echoed by german chancellor angela merkel she has been cautious about endorsing a move away from swift and said quote we know that a swift agreement is extremely important especially on questions of terrorism financing that said new reports out today indicate the european commission is moving forward on proposals within us for an alternative payment system to swift. for more on this and global markets with a london where we are joined by naive us law and the chief market analyst at think

markets name thanks for being back with us what do you make of the german foreign minister heiko mass reiterating he did so last week in an op ed now he did to the german ambassador is in its call to move the e.u. away from these twist international payment system in an effort to be less tied to i guess the united states which some see is having inordinate influence upon swift i'm not really sure about how do we have so much influence given there's only two of the twenty five board members but be that as it may he's concerned about it what are your thoughts. thanks for having me but there is nothing new bosses make it is the way obama administration is playing the games in the white house i think everyone is very much concerned and that the u.s. has a position where it can dictate that currencies can be just literally driven to the ground through speculations and interests race and everything else and sanctions can drive that countries to the grave so i think the evolution of blocks in

technology it was already on the horizon has to be seen coin of the new payment technology and recall and so many other so i do think that the countries like europe and especially germany machine doesn't hold any any longer good relationship with the us this says if you want to move away from this system which is dominated by the us yes you said that's only to somebody it's the position in which the old place matters the most and i think now we are entering an era of no one who wants to rely on a technology which is going trolling by one company what we do is you will one country it's all about decent of eisner yeah i totally get you you know the effort to move away considering what the u.s. presidential trumpet has done and what he says he certainly seems to want to be more isolationist but boy that's a big order for the european commission to come up with a new program i mean there are eleven thousand banks there doing like a message

a second on this thing so perhaps you're right name that maybe going to crypto based system is in the in the future and i note the angela merkel agreed that the with with unity of the e.u. but still has some caution with regard to developing the new program let's move to markets which in the u.s. have been buoyed over the last twenty four hours are related to some positive trade news about the u.s. and mexico potential trade deal but how are other global markets doing. one key word that i really like that she uses a potential. i think that's the key in that agreement right because the market is getting it a bit ahead of self thinking that yes it is a done deal with the it isn't and that that is something that the troops should be paying attention to but i think the spillover effect of this trade agreement should call the u.s. and mexico a trade agreement because trump instruction doesn't want to call that nafta anymore

how's the positive impact on the global markets over in europe we have seen the markets moving higher and the move isn't particularly driven by one sectarian it's overall and it's a combination of all sectors which is driving the market higher base in all essence is a really good because this is after all the biggest longest rule that you have a seat you know some say name that particularly those that are heavy u.s. stocks and even commodities that time now to rebalance at least to consider rebalancing that maybe the u.s. markets are either topped out or about to top out one what are your thoughts about that and if they haven't people should diversify or rebalance where should they be go and where would you suggest yeah that's it that's really an accident questions memo or to answer that question if the markets are talked out in the us well i think there's still

a little bit more room left to be yes we are coming towards the end of this all right ali but those investors who are looking to have a higher risk in the high growth and a higher appetite for their profit i think we should be looking at a countries where they geo political landscape is about to change because of the change in the politics and can change in the political arena so could you so much as malaysia pakistan where there have been recent elections i mean these markets do represent a huge potential and then some of these countries like i can sort of become the part of the muslim on. it's it's a great for even most is. that goal is one that are. driven to a standstill because it is very much depressing because of the domination of the pressure that to be seen from the daughter index and it has you're going to gold. but now get broken. but i think where the geopolitical and said tendency is in

essence should go to the king at gold at the same time it's both to have some sort of a haitian put for you makes a lot of sense to me and there may be at all some gold kryptos out there in the future we always get stimulating and thought provoking information from you that's the chief market analyst at think markets name islam thanks name. and famous investor warren buffett's company berkshire hathaway is making their latest market shifting investment in india the financial times quotes a knowledgeable sources saying that the previously tech shy buffett's company is betting on india's largest mobile payment payments platform pay t.m. by investing between two hundred eighty five and three hundred fifty million dollars and pay to parent company one ninety seven communications and taking a stake of three to four percent in the parent corporation pay t.m. says it has three hundred million users in india with four billion dollars in value of monthly transactions on the platform of berkshire hathaway now joins big names
