an investigative documentary. ghost war. french president among the sparks a box on line video emerges of him talking to a group of migrants some of whom claim they've been documented for years. ruling social democrat suffered their worst election result in a century while the insurgence sweden democrats make major gains with their anti immigration platform. iraq declaring itself free from islamic state terrorists almost a year ago we reported now the cherub group remains active across. the country.

they opened fire on them straight away and my son in hospital the line of the ground the coin unit of the madras told us they were from the islamic state of iraq my brother was killed after he was kidnapped a fake checkpoint terrorist. live from our international news center here in moscow this is r t i'm you know neal good to have your company our top story french president and money has come in for a barrage of criticism online. emerged of him talking to a group of migrants here's the exchange.

pretty embarrassing that video there for president mcewan as he saw in the video a man claims that he's from algeria and he's been on holiday in france for can you believe it. is that mr mack on a little bit surprised when he heard that but just so the system regulated documented so you can be in france probably in the man says yes i'm going to but the reaction on twitter has been absolutely outrage that that was the president's only reaction to a man who's just essentially told them that he's been undocumented in this country for years others went as far as saying perhaps president had even disrespected france's own rules take a look at some of the reaction on twitter attention this is not a parody that is the president of our republic hey mr mccraw thanks

a lot mr micron we are undocumented we love you so much when the most powerful man in france looks the other way when there is an obvious breach of law he makes fools of the whole country. sure. i do specifically because this problem. well right at the very end of the video it does seem as if the man is trying to attract some of his statement but doesn't wait very long and he hastily moves along very aware i'm sure that the cameras were on him and that encounter was being filmed and surely going to be disseminated like it was across social media and this of course immigration is a sore subject here in france recently the french government has introduced its no new migration bill where it's trying to make it more difficult for people to apply for asylum migration status here in france and also trying to make it much more efficient to deport undocumented illegal migrants like that man suggested he was at

the very beginning of the video so what mark probably didn't want is to come face to face for somebody who's actually saying i'm an illegal migrant and i've been in your country for eight years eighteen months and that of course was the tenure of mr maclin himself just hours before that immigration was something that mark owen had been talking about with the german chancellor angela merkel because it is expected to be one of the big battlegrounds ahead of next year's parliament now while mrs merkel has often been happy to pose for photos and videos of migrant in this open the arms if germany to many migrants in the past mr matt corn is probably not feeling exactly the same in heartwarming about that encounter because as i said it is a big battleground ahead of next year's e.u. parliamentary elections and for many might be feeling that this video could play

into the hands of his opponents more than he would actually like. moving on know the right wing sweden democratic party has won its largest their version of the vote over seventeen percent in a general election dominated by concerns over immigration the party's leader declared his movement the true betters. your reappearance of only i know who has won this election is the sweden democrats that's how it is we are strengthening our pivotal position and increasing our seats in the swedish parliament we see that we are going to get incredible influence in the future and no one can take that away from us so to mcnorton the sweden democrats. and loom over anything that will help society to be able to only increase division and hate well despite those words it was a disappointing night for the prime minister's ruling social democrats claiming twenty eight percent of the vote that's their lowest result in

a century the swedish moderates were second with close to twenty percent with no clear winner the result likely means a lengthy negotiations on forming a governing coalition really if a national reported for us from sweden in the run up to the election and told us earlier about the mood across the country. the mood was not easy i can even say it was quite depressive this what i felt after a tour in sweden for almost fourteen days people were telling me things are not like they used to be health care and justice system police even transportation i remember we had a rendezvous with one politician in ma in the southern sweden and he was late for a full two minutes after his train was delayed and when he finally iraq he was like oh even trains don't run on time in this country anymore so of course it was a joke but with some big to truth that people were not quite happy with the happening in sweden but security was the biggest concern of course with cars burned

throughout the country with gang shootings on the rise now we're driving to the southern part of stockholm the swedish capital to one of the areas called by police as vulnerable area or especially vulnerable area or area around the refer to a few of the few people who live. there that we would either be violent with the thought of to. move to the local bin laden or who drove over mafia give me money the woman who. was the gun you may know. but again bad things mostly happened in these vulnerable areas but this feeling of insecurity spread far beyond and that's really what the sweden democrats were trying to capitalize on making trying to make got the reg link between immigration and crime oh yeah they've talked a lot about violent crime during they are comparing and they blamed immigrants for

all the problems in the country the years it was considered for a taller in sweden as i'm over told to talk bad about immigration this is why sweden democrats often and openly. were accused of been not see or carry nazi ideas for this position. but i can say that there were many. more extreme groups much more extreme groups in sweden running for the city elections for example nordic resistance movement they present themselves actually like people are soldiers and they were hoping to get some votes during this campaign is well. i. don't know if there was definitely a very very good person or the german people definitely. the free germany.

they are against this we're against the masses move racism and so beleaguered to say that it looks like i mean that must be cause for the police to intervene as you say in such a renowned liberal country like sweden where people there saying to you about well whether we're right in sweden democrats were wrong or right many people believed that immigrants are indeed to blame and that's what i felt while traveling across sweden this and immigration no particular entity no new repeat immigration sense this what we filmed in house and work sweden is not swedish anymore i mean this is totally changed here used to be small little shop where you could buy hotdogs now it's sort of you never find any swedish dogs anymore but in a sense. this big increase. is just here. all the signs are you know how big you. know your

order is oh no no no no we're going to let you room with me because we do expect you actually to use you know i'm very sad that sweden is not a swedish country anymore it makes me want to cry don't you. really nice my i.q. if you like but i think right so as you can see not an easy time for sweden and as many people told me in the country it's not easy to make a right choice because i really like too much of everything not clear who can actually fix this my colleague column b. also talked to kent echo route from the sweden democrats party who gave us his thoughts on the election result. grew more than we did so in their. success. and also when it comes to the kingmaker position in a swedish parliament and what about those perceptions that your party is just

trying to put an acceptable face on some of the more extreme elements in swedish political society lumping you with far right groups like alternative sweden or nordic resistance well that's left wing media trying to demonize parties like ours what we can say and what we do know is that my point of view is not responsible for the chaos that sweden is in with immigration and with all the problems we. have employees who've been doing this for thirty maybe forty years and in every election they come up with the same so-called solutions to problems they themselves made in the same thing all over again what has never been tried in sweden is a less immigration system one thing that's never been tried. the one thing we want to see is sweden zero immigration and to get people to move back to their home countries we can say. ok let's turn our attention to syria where government troops are massing for what's hoped final roots of islamic state terrorists and

militants in a province but as the battle looms tension is growing between moscow and washington over the fate of the country here's donald quarter explaining. the civil war in syria could be entering its final chapter but several obstacles remain before any victory over the terrorists could be declared. in the tunne where americans have a military base new u.s. exercises have been launched unannounced. forces will demonstrate the capability to deploy rapidly assault a target with integrated and ground forces and conduct a rapid x. filtration anywhere in the operation inherent resolve combined joint operations area that's after russia informed the us of its pursuit of terrorists into a so-called decon flexions the russians informed the us on september the first by

the dea conflicts in line that they intended to end to the conflicts and to pursue terrorists through us and indicated by written in september the sixth that they would make precision strikes in the conflict against terrorists no comment about the note from russia so far the us though assured russia there's no intent for conflict with the pro syrian government forces but they will retaliate to any hostile actions so what's the purpose of these military maneuvers exercises like this both defeat isis capabilities and ensure that we are ready to respond to any threat to our forces and the widening war on terror has long been washington's go to justification for sticking it out in syria even boosting numbers on the ground with the end of the campaign in sight going to stay for several reasons stabilization and assistance in the vital north and northeast protection of our allies to deny those responsible for using chemical weapons in syria to pursue

a diplomatic resolution to be a part of what will be a widening effort across the world to achieve a political settlement to set the conditions for the united nations backed geneva process to succeed america does not seek an indefinite presence in syria and in no circumstance. and adlib the last remaining terrorist stronghold fighting between the world and extremist groups has been put on hold the. consequences of a major offensive operation in the lab. the suffering of a large number of innocent civilians washington says it's got its own way to deal with terrorism in syria they say they will be better and more focused but details haven't been very forthcoming at any rate moscow is out of the picture when it comes to syria and that's despite russia recently meeting with other players to the

conflict turkey and iran they came up with a joint statement that put forward a political solution to the conflict leaders from those countries agreed the only path forward is for unconditional terrorists surrender turkey though is against any operation an adlib calling for a cease fire and. if we declare a cease fire this will be a victory for the summit and the most important step in the process will be for peace of mind to civilians russian president vladimir putin said cease fire are not the terrorists there are unpredictable and turkey well they've reportedly already advanced towards it live. well to discuss the developments i'm happy to say we're joined live on the program by political analyst was ne come l. welcome what does the pentagon mean when it say there is a better way of doing tundra terrorism operations in live on i os stuff because they've never specified what it is. well obviously

we have to let the banter go in the clear of that statement but what i know going to has a very much to fire i says or these terms to group since the start of the war to that effect some time the united states aided those terrorist organizations supplied the with ammunition and train them today we facing and of terrorists here the rhetoric coming from the united states and from from other countries threatening syria actually claim on russia actually these states men are playing to the terrorists and somebody if they wanted these terrorists to stay. as it is you're just lying coming in from john bolton. just reading it live u.s.

britain and france agree that if russia excuse me if syria uses chemical weapons the response will be quote much stronger no that kind of language what do you think that means by putting that i thought there by the secretary of state defense. basically the statement by the by a by the american. by mr bolton is if he's saying i'm coming to aid these terrorist groups coming to these. and you're not allow as a country in syria or with the help of the russia to defeat these terrorist organization they wanted to put a if they want to frame the whole things as they saying to these terrorists organization continues to lie to fabricate lies and we can not come and

maybe punish syria. government and we've come to your aid it's a question is isn't time for him to take a really direct line and say we are against terrorism and we have to fight them where we have or we have to find them that's what they did after nine eleven they went and destroyed the whole country this is in syria with these countries with syria wanting to liberate the last piece of their land they can these terror on their land their statement of mr bolton the french the british is not helpful to bring this world and it's not surprisingly is not surprising because probably there is a lot of pressure on mr trump in the united states you probably want to be probably to draw a victory or like. on syria maybe he can improve his rating in

the united states. thank you very much for that we've been speaking to political analyst was knew a whole range of issues thank you very much. all right over to neighboring iraq now where a spree of islamic state kidnappings and attacks have targeted security forces and civilians despite losing territory the militants are still active in many parts of the country and are now turning to guerrilla warfare we heard from the relatives of some who lost their lives in the ongoing violence. forces have cleared the last book it's a virus so controlled areas. of. the coalition to defeat isis has liberated very close to one hundred percent of the territory just recently held by these killers in iraq we have just

absolutely decimated isis just absolutely obliterated isis in iraq. the other one how many that you know happened at the checkpoint ten of the six or seven militants or did they manage to get out of the car the terrorists didn't ask why them to cards or anything they opened fire on them straight away and my son and husband were lying on the ground before i knew it the motorist told us they were from the islamic state in iraq. as the father got and my brother was killed after he was kidnapped at a fake checkpoint run by i saw terrorists. the

minister had a say about the thought of this failed to warn us that the road was dangerous that there was a nice all checkpoint there were completely unaware and to keep a tool after the terrorists killed my son husband it took the security for. his few hours to get to the site and even after they did they didn't venture close to the car as they feared it was booby trapped. terrorist demanded the release of some sunni women held in iraqi custody in exchange for my brother and others but the authorities abdicated all responsibility for the negotiations and i found myself having to do the talks on my own current iraqi leaders are failures they keep making statements and giving conferences but they are not doing anything on the

ground. or the one. i saw has lost everything and they no longer have the ability to control territories so what they're doing now is an attempt to send messages to the media trying to show them they still exist by conducting terrorist attacks against innocent civilians those attempts are in fact pathetic and a sign of desperation. but some of the stories making headlines around the world this hour i'll be back with more in thirty states are in for our t.v. programs right ahead.

when i was told small seemed wrong all right all were all just all. let me. get to shape out this day come to educate and in again trade equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. she stood up for common ground. ministries police forces and city administrations of many countries depend on one corporation that does what mike was hoping to avoid doesn't implement the eyes of god i'm stumped just adama's on the guns going through the. woods as if he did it out into the sea it's just a little blood from them proprietary software you don't know the source code isn't that a such a security risk when you have a black box operating in the public eye to microsoft's dependency puts governments

on to cyber threats and not only that some team think office can put us in more. close all facilities this is an easy sell in the stalls the only one local. going to most of the world to do this to boardrooms all of those with the police and all this in the us will. be done with the old vision stopping there was a sting of phone calls a fund is up and describes in the fine. i've been saying the numbers being from a matter of us is over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten thousand eight hundred foreign family each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you want to be called from rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent fires last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per strike at the first shot and

. we rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars. but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need remembering one. for the mid one. zero zero come to. shave or not say as bright minds gather here at the european house members at a forum at italy's komo here it is faced with a number of pressing issues the looming trade war with the united states and my group crisis and the reform. system face up to today's challenges well i ask the

former prime minister of italy and recollect that. the european union is on the brink of major change but plans of reform are being jeopardized by an ever growing which driven between member states over the ongoing refugee crisis how can a common vision be hammered out in a climate of distrust while the union managed to keep up the momentum of integration while balancing the demands and wishes of the blog and will that be enough to ensure the longevity of the e.u. . and u.k. letter thank you very much for being with us today it's great to have you as our guest lots to talk about since so many changes are taking place in europe so europe's lucrative transatlantic trade may be in jeopardy and trump right now is saying that you know what us will outlast europe and it's straight standoff and we're going to negotiate hard to make this on american terms what's going to happen is you are just going to capitulate what does this mean. that i think trump is

becoming the best ally. united more united that goes from peace pushing through the peons to understand that we are we have to be together because the only way to be together means reacting to these threats is i think the trade for.
