headline stories this hour donald trump on his own order to immediately release documents regarding the f.b.i. and government officials involved in the. state department accuses the syrian government. assisting terrorists in the country we examine whether the claims correspond with the reality on the ground. on

the coalition course ahead of what's being billed as the greatest fight in mixed martial arts history. the press with the paris set to do it two weeks. twenty four seven years live from our international news center here in moscow welcome to r.t. i'm unit only good to have your company our top story president trump has delayed his own order to the classified documents related to the only going russia collusion probe the files were expected to shed light on a ledge conflicts of interest and ethics of certain f.b.i. and government officials. i met with the d.o.j. concerning the declassification of various unredacted documents they agreed to release them but stated that doing so may have

a perceived negative impact on the russian probe also key allies called to ask not to release therefore the inspector general has been asked to review these documents on an expedited basis i believe he will move quickly on this and hopefully on other things which he is looking at in the end i can always declassify it if it proves necessary. speed is very important to me and everyone. let's just go through some of what occurred on monday the president announced he'd ordered the details of acacia several pages of a surveillance warrant all former trump campaign aide carter page additional documents concerned ex f.b.i. director james comey as well as other former top f.b.i. officials. more knowing why the president put the potentially explosive documents release on hold this delay comes in apparently he's waiting for the department of

justice to review the documents before they are made available to the public now this is quite a u.-turn from donald trump when he initially spoke up he gave a very strong statement saying that he was going to make the documents from the probe very public that he had this authority as president we want transparency what i want is i want total transparency this is a witch hunt. republicans are seeing it that democrats know it's a witch on to but they don't want to admit it because that's not good politics for them but it's a terrible witch hunt and it turned our country and i want transparency and so does everybody else we should open it up for people to see now donald trump mentioned the democrats and trump was certainly under a huge amount of pressure from the democratic party many democratic leaders were strongly opposed to donald trump making public documents related to the bob muller investigation now we had adam a shift who is a high ranking member of the house select committee on intelligence he went as far

as to call this abuse of power to say that donald trump was acting completely inappropriate leon harming the ability of the justice department to do its work now interestingly tensions are riding high in washington d.c. in relation to this probe into allegations that trump colluded with russia bob woodward a popular investigative journalist who wrote two books that were very popular in relation. the trumpet ministration he was being interviewed recently and in his radio interview he's the mascot's wouldn't have much time to facilitate the out for the most part it had no access cut off by the opposition from its own border syrian regime border forces retreated from the border and the opposition forces took over the posts and raised their flag it wasn't until june last year when the syrian army began to recapture those parts of the country and it did so with the help of a rainy and pro-war rainy and forces who have proven to be a considerable power. but

in the world of the u.s. state department iran give us and take it because apparently on its own soil it forces the same terrorists it kills in syria it's a crazy standing of reality and its head but this is very common in the united states rand is helping the syrians defeat these terrorists and their countries but the united states says iran is supporting al-qaeda it behooves the united states to say that iran is involved in this because this builds a case against iran even though it makes no sense so the united states reports whatever needs to report to justify its foreign policy. to another story we're closely following today big european broadcasting union has spoken out against policy changes that denmark's largest public t.v.

radio corporation diyar it criticize planned budget cuts a push to reduce the promotion of integration. sit together and we. might be at school so instead focus has been shifted to the values of democracy and free speech it saves the broadcaster also wants content to portray the country's christian cultural heritage well the changes were published by denmark's ministry of culture with parliamentary support it was heavily influenced by the empty immigration danish people's party the second largest political force in the country the opposition know how spoken out against the new worthing this is what was said. not we've had put in relative to the previous wording we felt that was too weak

d.r. must present christian cultural heritage to a greater degree i think it's an incorrect prowess or ization of conservative values it's another step towards a political agenda that doesn't want to integrate people well we got the thoughts of a former host of a religious program on the d.r. i've been thrown home who told us the move is being implemented to reinforce the country's national identity the previous guidelines also stated that christianity is part of this cultural heritage what is surprising it that they are really stressing one war time because after my program closed down one religious program after the other has been shut down because chris and at sea and religion in general has not been prototyped with the immigration that the europeans and also the author of the danes has a problem to define their own identity if a quarter is very based on its christian foundations and its christian faith it's

much easier for this society to integrate other people so i think that's why they want to stress it simply to strengthen their national identity which is very important in our time where there is so much division in the european societies. ok i want to turn attention now to the middle east where one palestinian has been killed and at least three hundred more injured in the latest on rest on the israel and border rallies organized by islamist militant group hamas have been taking place every friday since march allied with an ever bigger is really military presence there based journalist into dari the latest on the ground. thousands of palestinians are protesting for the twenty sixth friday and that you see it's ask a lady why. black smoke is filling the place and guys is also fing the place coolers of palestinians have been injured so far as you see more injuries are

coming out from the front lines. thousands of protester activists came to the protest when thousands of years to bring their divisions that. was. preparing lot of tough cocktails and they're also very trying dight injury after injury are coming from the front line. of the israeli army posted this video on twitter in response showing palestinians breaking through the border fence the company say's we were there to stop them and prevent attacks on our civilians just minutes away the i.d.f. claims that rioters were hurling grenades and fire bombs at troops who used to lie fire in self defense one soldier sustained a life injuries from. excitement is

steadily building amongst fight funds or run the globe it is just two weeks now until one of the most anticipated ballots in the history of the u.f.c. the ultimate fighting championship gets going irishman mcgregor and russia's norman committed off on it to the hype with a stare a dollar and a press conference on thursday daniel hawkins kunst on what we can expect. crowds in the middle of a bustling new york street stop and listen to the most talked about fight this in m.m.a. the hottest property in the light weight division if not the world of u.f.c. . now the founder of a humanitarian organization that helps refugees in greece has given himself up to police his arrest was sore three weeks ago for allegedly helping migrants illegally enter the country.

while other members of char its c.e.o. are c.i. on. the green and white h.l.v. lane stickers on their cleaner cars will expire at the beginning of the year. so i think as we take you as i think what they want to do is use a car chart for the carpool lane so you don't agree with their argument as to why

they are doing now i really think it's a many. of the. vehicles. have a city for sustainable. it is knowing twenty four here in moscow this saturday morning i'll be back in just over half an hour's time with. more global in use from r t h q but next sideways swipes and news in a different way it's lee camp and his show redacted tonight. so we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race is scary dramatic development the only i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to

sit down and talk. this means out of the past four presidents we've heard in detail about two of their penises which is about seven too many. anyway we have that going on but what would the trumpet ministration tell you is the serious crime we all really need to be focused on the white house is secretly amassed a committee of federal agencies from across the government to combat public support for marijuana and portray the drug as a national threat. and now as you know the rats oh dear god people will be mellow. now you may not be doing this seriously but studies have shown that over the past five years there has been a dramatic dramatic uptick in giggling and napping people people been listening to

flaming lips aof out there is chaos. of course the reason is a truly dangerous dangerous because the white house is clearly preparing to ramp up the drug war even more the war on drugs has been used to arrest lock up or otherwise destroy the lives of a whopping eighty trillion americans. i made up that number but. it's still indicative of something. we are and i'm not making this part up the largest prison state in the world and yet our government wants to keep arresting citizens for a drug that kills people every year. when i have.
