if. video agency ruptly obtains footage of residents in province in afghanistan protesting against the constant bombings by coalition and afghan forces. in the u.k. it's revealed that the terrorist who killed five people in last year's westminster bridge have been known to security services as a potential threat for over

a decade before the atrocity. and the un security council meeting on korean nuclear eyes ation is divided over sanctions against pyongyang with russia and us offering radically different approaches. it's eleven o'clock and you're watching all to international live from all must go studio with me welcome to the program. we have received video of angry crowds who gathered in the afghan city of qantas on wednesday protesting against coalition and afghan strikes at least twenty four people have been killed in separate ever talks in afghanistan in the last five days alone with more than half of the victims children. georgios known in the show the. dutch uppercut are not of them i'm not

going to judge the decision one way to show you don't use one on my eyes. just yet because they're still your physical and on but john just clearly it's got us in a jam he says there are still images that are standard you know a good example it isn't good to do a good order. so you have the link you know you can only write you. demonstrators chanted against afghan and u.s. led forces blaming them for the deaths they carried that said bodies of their relatives to the provincial capital as part of the protest let me show you call me i'll be in with you don't you know this shows the management of the government to cheat us. following the attacks the u.n. mission has raised the alarm over the rising number of civilian casualties from airstrikes it adds that women and children make up the majority of victims nikki aren't reports these protests come after what has been a particularly bloody week in afghanistan over the weekend twenty one civilians were killed in as strikes in one case twelve members of the same family were killed

and another ten children between the ages of six and fifteen were also killed the third strike of the week came on tuesday when three people were killed in can do is province according to the u.n. in the first six months of two thousand and eighteen as strikes one hundred forty nine civilians and injured two hundred four and if we compare that to the same period last year that's a fifty two percent increase and afghan forces may be thinking that using more air power is the best mode of action for them but it really is bad news for civilians who are coming under the constant threat of shelling in recent weeks there have been as many as two dozen strikes a day the u.n. in a statement released on tuesday said that the data that the u.s. and the afghan coalition are using for this strikes is just to very well earlier today we heard from the russian foreign ministry which released a statement taking a similar tone to that u.n.

statement also raising concern over the increasing number of civilian deaths is an extract from that statement we were outraged that the iranians strikes of nato forces in this country are already almost an everyday reality moreover no one is responsible for this we consider the current situation a consequence of the groove miscalculations of us all sorts of us in afghanistan and the room of the white house on a military solution to the problems of the country but in the meantime there's also been comments from the u.s. side glance near the spokesperson for the. u.s. forces in afghanistan has said that they were reviewing all operational relevant and credible information regarding operations and also perhaps an attempt to reassure civilians in afghanistan said that we take more care to avoid civilian casualties than anyone else. last month russia invited the afghan government and the taliban for multilateral peace talks in moscow the taleban agreed but the

government put it on hold routing is still expected to go ahead before the end of the year earlier we spoke with the russian presidential envoy to afghanistan about what impact the talks could have on the country. it is now time to act and to move from statements to real steps while organizing these peace talks in moscow a major task is to create an atmosphere that will lead to bilateral talks between the afghan government and the taliban. in the u.k. it's come to light that the terrorist behind last year's westminster attack had been identified as a threat by british security services only to be taken off the list five years before he carried out the crime in march twenty seventh. rammed a car into pedestrians killing four and then fatally stabbed a police officer artie's on the situation has been following the official inquest into the case and inquiry into the westminster attack of march twenty second of last year where six people including the perpetrator died and dozens were injured

has now revealed that the attacker a fifty two year old believed masood had apparently been on the radar of u.k. security services dating as far back as two thousand and four now by twenty ten he was linked to al qaeda training in pakistan and had been identified as a threat to national security this is according to a senior m i filed for officer who was testifying in court here in the u.k. this week presented only as court witness l. to protect the officer's identity he said. that must suit had been given a holding code identifying him as a threat to national security but was later downgraded that same year by december twenty ten to quote an individual who may be of interest to national security and then by twenty twelve this man her lead masood was already characterized as a quote closed subject of interest and remained that way until the attack in march

last year and according to this m i five officer who was speaking in court as part of this investigation he said that gazans of people were monitored by u.k. security services are a crime and a terrorist threat at the time was unprecedented so he says the actions of officials were adequate we have reviewed the decision to close masood as a person of interest with the benefit of hindsight and we conclude the decision was sound it was logical necessary and proportionate to consider him a good well according to this officer he also pretty much confirmed that there's always a danger of somebody slipping through during those hearings and there's there's always going to be a chance that somebody might get through and of course this is far from the first time that concerns about people slipping through the net when it comes to such terror attacks and not of course just here but also in europe come to the forefront

when it does get revealed that officials had known something about those people involved but somehow failed to stop them from carrying out those attacks. he went security council has met on the future of sanctions against pyongyang and it's turned out no less divisive than other key issues discussed at this year's general assembly. reports just on wednesday night president trump kept talking about how incredibly well he gets along with the north korean leader the one that he keeps calling chairman kim. we have a very good relationship he likes me i like him we get along he wrote me two of the most beautiful letters the question is how does this language by and with what his diplomats are saying most important thing during this u.n. security council session of the korean peninsula crisis here's u.s.

secretary of state mike compare. until the final denuclearization of the d.p. r. k. is achieved and fully verified it is our solemn collective responsibility to fully implement un security council resolutions pertaining to north korea namely battens on oil exports textile imports from north korea and no access to natural gas supplies these are once again un sanctions but there are a unilateral ones to made in the us and this is backed by allies those are the ones that the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov called a grave violation of international law and a slap in the un's face and speaking of how long america's willing to apply this tactic against pyongyang president traub made it clear that there are no time limits i told my company or said mike don't get into time again if it takes two

years three years or five months. doesn't matter whether this u.s. administration tactic will work and whether appealing yang will be ready to continue making one concession after another without anything in return remains a question moscow is confident that it's not a good plan. to and when pyongyang shows redeemers to cooperate and positive changes to will stabilization in the region it looks more and more when the western partners propose further strengthening sanctions on north korea given that pyongyang has taken a number of important steps towards denuclearization it would have been more logical to support the efforts of the something in exchange to support the positive trend speaking of the take other major regional players have on this china is backing russia's position japan is supporting the us sanctions told the

very strategy and south korea is just enjoying the moment and giving themselves credit for the numerous high level summits that have happened between the north and south. and when it's a security council meeting trumpeter vented his i am going to china of meddling in the upcoming us midterm elections but. explains such claims happening had people. in fashion the talent too does all his a designer's bread and butter in political fashion donald trump markets him self as chief. and it looks like russia is going out of style not once was it mentioned in trump's un speech regrettably we found that china has been attempting to interfere in our upcoming twenty eight. election coming up in november. against my administration they do not want me

or us to win because i am the first president ever to challenge china on trade washington's needlework has already retailing their agenda actions that china has taken undermine a rules based order unfair trade practices particularly by china the chinese are very active we can watch very focused efforts to steal american information well china we here at r.t. know what it's like to be showcased in the window of the white house political boutique first things first accusations of election meddling are still in vogue so make no mistake what used to be russian hackers and the presidential vote in twenty sixteen giving way to chinese hackers and the midterm ballot this season permits continued hacking of our defense secrets to its focus on collecting vast repositories of personal personality. information to better unable

to vote is china exploits our transparency and open society china is also being introduced to the concept of sanctions being thrown in the same basket with moscow over beijing's purchase of russian weapons in this narrative the trade war waged by the us on china fits like a glove after all the purpose is the same to hurt and nation's economy our trade imbalance is just not acceptable. china's market distortions. and the way they deal. cannot be tolerated when it comes to pushing an independent foreign policy china and russia are cut from the same cloth this trend is also propelling beijing to the top of the u.s. diplomatic kill list we do want it to her very closely what appears to be an effort to expand their influence beyond their own region in places like africa latin america the pacific islands. and we are concerned by some of the tactics that

the hunt for chinese spies is in full swing too as if the land of the american dream has been rid of russia's agents and what seems to be a new fad in this china dominated collection military rivalry taiwan is a breakaway province from beijing's standpoint while from washington's it's a lucrative arms export opportunity no wonder the massive new us three hundred and thirty million dollar weapons deal with taiwan fell flat with china washington is definitely afraid that china is in the passingly many economists are predicting that sooner rather than later china will have a larger economy than that of the united states of america that from washington's point of view presents an accidental crisis for the united states of america likewise you see there are states trying to recruit other nations into its china

cobol particularly japan australia and india this is a very combustible situation so it appears like russia is indeed stepping aside this fall winter season replaced by china in pretty much every dimension or do you know the boogieman dress is one size fits all. u.s. news website the daily beast seems to be suggesting that the russian foreign ministry itself has now turned into a tree if the report claims that moscow has upgraded its suppose a troll and blocked campaign by using the twitter accounts of its diplomats and embassies the daily beast insists that the ministry is trying to confuse the public by bending the truth with multiple competing narratives.

the article think of that one particular russian to contest for the most ironic

post about russia's relations with the west here you can see the wooden picture of the bus cartoon on paris johnson following her anger at the russian foreign ministry spokeswoman being invited to the house of commons we discussed the story with columnist and author ted rall. united states government does this it's government does this all the time u.s. government officials make jokes all the time the president of the united states uses social media extremely effectively and makes lots of jokes on it in fact he probably would not be president if he hadn't used twitter extremely effectively so it's mystifying why anyone would say that this is somehow inappropriate the united states has i've even seen jokes about things that are pretty grim for example the department of defense twitter account has made jokes about drone strikes and weapons that bomb civilians in afghanistan and elsewhere. those are pretty tasteless jokes so i guess you could say that

a terribly tasteless joke might be something that would cross the line but jokes themselves or why not they're an important part of dialogue. let's return to trump's headline grabbing speech at the u.n. because it wasn't just foreign powers he attacked socialism also came from steak and his caliber and reports of knowledge meant we've heard from him before. trump's un general assembly speech this year contains some of old material not long ago venezuela was one of the richest countries on earth today socialism has begged grow up did the oil rich nation virtually everywhere socialism or communism has been dry it has produced suffering corruption and decay all nations of the world should resist socialism and the misery that it brings to everyone said roughly the same thing in the last. here's u.n. speech and he got a similar awkward response the problem in venezuela is not that socialism has

been poorly implemented but that socialism has been faithfully implemented. trump doesn't seem to realize that the cold war is over and the specter of soviet style marxism leninism is no longer hanging over eastern europe meanwhile trump also doesn't seem to realize that socialism is rather popular around the world the german social democratic party the british labor party many political organizations and leaders across the world adhere to some vague form of socialism in fact socialism is getting more popular in places that are a lot closer to washington than venezuela.

we believe that every working class american deserves the opportunity to change their economic destiny and their children's future that is what that's the message that we need to bring into the midterms. piecing this crime since in our democracy where people feel like the same laws don't apply to the rich. and we should absolutely have a health care system that provides health care for every citizen in our country socialism is quite popular among millennia as in the united states more popular than capitalism in fact some pollsters say that if donald trump had. run against bernie sanders in the twenty sixteen presidential election he might not have been

able to pull off his victory we decided to ask dakota lilah young activist why he thinks that socialism is on the rise in the united states people my age especially the really sick you know the ills that capitalism brings upon if you look at the student loan crisis right now the student loan debt is the largest holder of debt in the country more than credit card debt you know we have for profit you know educational institutions that charge sixty seventy eighty thousand dollars per semester per year you know the unemployment rate trump says it's four percent or three percent in actuality it's eight nine ten percent third the room is made up of socialists you know it's made up of people from bolivia and cuba venezuela china you know angola south africa it's made up of people who completely disagree with come on by you know if you look at last year's speech he said you know socialism in venezuela is not failing because it's being you know put to use wrongly it's be put to use completely correctly no one said anything for a good solid five seconds and then this year they laughed at him actually so when

trouble repeated his anti socialist tirade at the u.n. the question is was he really aiming at caracas or was he aiming at a new source of opposition to his policies here at home where it seems that trump has unwittingly made socialism great again hey look up and r.t. new york. police are investigating one of their own female offices for hugging a protester wearing hijab at a rally against the country's ban on less than face the issue had been raised by an m.p. . the photo of the office and the protests to combine to uproot the disbelief and done mock sympathizing more with demonstrate to supposing the niqab on the moon with balm and legislation the fall i want to complain about the offices behaved. possibly took place when the demonstrate to burst into tears after hearing that she wouldn't be fined for sitting on the ground the protester added she was terrified the place would forcibly pull off her face fell and she took her kids to

kindergarten and the officer told her that wouldn't happen the stop the islamization of denmark group join the m.p.'s complaint against the officer the independent police appeals authorities investigating the case the officers the lawyer insists she acted in accordance with police guidelines denmark's ban against face veils come into effect on august the first and follows similar restrictions in austria belgium and france critics though are concerned where the complaint against the officer is taking society. communities are made up of various groups and the police need to police all of those groups violate. the nature of the complaint. could effectively be summarized as the place on earth. that isn't what the place is job is the place this job is to facilitate protest in a liberal democracy and that seems to be what the officer went along with doing policing the population of a country is not an easy thing to do and you cannot have the police enforcing.

any law or. the lower end of the sky oh we have absolutely no discretion whatsoever it doesn't work like that in a democracy. around for the news now i'll be back at the top of the hour with more but first on r.t. international time for a documentary called no limits. when lawmakers manufactured consensus instead of public. when the ruling class is a project themselves. the flame and merry go round the sun we don't want to set. the time to ignore middle of the

room signals. to leave the room million more you don't leave the room the way. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter to us is over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you longs to be ultra rich eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred trade per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one does not show you can afford to miss the one and only fool

but. yet can that if this guy. had a good that will and that will go and visit me and that to the minute we add that one of my leave the until we get there. to get it. i did it and i think i can that is at the end is how much to him i am about and i think. afghan government i'm not a lot about how the now growing starting from that point on but it does a little. bit

now down miles out of town a lot of i'm up a moderately full open. without a doubt about a damn sight and i could see that as i asked by the way to really. get that they did things about the site up on after seven. days that i had thought about it but even the last and all if you film in the little siad. and with the. league school.

when you. could look at it is too close to the book. but.
