7:03 am
and support the best deal that can be negotiated this deal prime minister comes before us today trying to sell us a deal that is already dead in the water the reason why the people of this country are so fed up is because they've been made so many promises none of which have been delivered on because they cohens be delivered to yes difficult and sometimes uncomfortable decisions have had to be made i understand fully that there is some who are unhappy with those compromises but this deal delivers what people voted for and it is in the national interest. and we can only secure it if we unite behind the agreement reached in cabinet yesterday it's been a series of cabinet resignation that government minister resignations and parliamentary private secretary resignations even the vice chairman of the conservative party itself has resigned saw it's very hard to see how
7:04 am
someone who is dug in behind a great deal which seems to be almost friendless this is a failure is an orphan and success has a thousand parents world this deal look very much like an orphan to me today she's come up with this withdrawal agreement and nobody wants it doesn't satisfy the remain as you don't want to leave anyway and it doesn't satisfy the leavers because under it we don't really leave so no one's going to be happy about this i don't believe she can get it through parliament and of course it also has to come through the european parliament ukip any piece will vote against it i think other groups will vote against it here so i'd be surprised if it actually got through this parliament either people are deserted the tory party are seen on twitter people tearing up their cards and taking photographs so this deal doesn't actually satisfy any body so more drama in and around parliament this week jury made. in ati's

7:07 am
fair to say that right now. everyone's talking about it without having read it a little bit like the bible. or in peter's. c.z. once the banks start the ball i'm not sure it's already a. star. scuse me what's more than either. what is it you kill me refusing to do my job to ask the questions . but in case you wonder what the backstop is of course to provide border between the republic of ireland and northern ireland you read all about it and so much more from polly on our site. ok but serious matters the stories you need to classified documents have revealed a cia program to develop a so-called truth serum and involve drugging prisoners who are able to withstand other interrogation techniques project medication was of previously undisclosed
7:08 am
element of this program in which in addition to the physical and psychological torture that the cia was engaged in several doctors decided to try to figure out whether they could also find some kind of truth serum that they would use against people's will to inject them with and make them talk so your correspondent more goes to have has more than on the cia interrogation program and how it evolved. it wasn't an isolated case or to an accident or oversight was government sanctioned systematic or that there were manuals instructions on how to inflict pain that's not a secret in the immediate aftermath of nine eleven we tortured some folks see torture isn't only frowned upon because it's evil vile it's also ineffective problem number one imagine the cia's surprise when those people that they were
7:09 am
putting through hell resisted grew used to it enhanced interrogation techniques were begun within six hours these progress from attention flaps and wool into confinement in both large about five hours and small about one hour book says and finally to the waterboard a z. seems amazingly resistant to waterboard what happened was that the victims and this is problem number two adapted to suffering cia's own words the prisoners began to see certain torture procedures as escape a break from other harsher measures what a conundrum here having slapped beaten confined and water boarded these people they were getting results so they opted for something new something like a truth serum problem was and this is problem number three seriously illegal there were at least two legal obstacles approved bush and his medical
7:10 am
experimentation on prisoners and a ban on interrogation or use of mind altering drugs the question became moot since the legal department did not want to raise another issue with the department of justice problem number four revulsion cia tortures according to the torturers themselves the doctors others who were present were horrendous to watch the whole. experienced responsible medical officer did was visually and psychologically very uncomfortable for all those witnessing it the problem was so widespread and so serious that employees had to be counseled and then checked to make sure they were still all right in the head after everything they had seen and done and they began only hiring people who had a stomach for torture let me be clear on what the cia doctors role was here when the cia tortures were torturing
7:11 am
a prisoner for example by bought by waterboarding him say doctors would medically resuscitate the prisoner when he would become unconscious from too much torture what they did was allow the cia to continue torturing people over and over problem number five a lot of problems here journalists activists and juice they kept prime kept sniffing around digging up details and publicizing ever they over the government the cia they resisted see for example how the document that revealed all of these looked initially when released under the freedom of information act in two thousand and sixteen not a lot of information in it it's almost like two fingers to the press sometimes these court battles took years but they got it out eventually.
7:12 am
ancient history you might say we knew most of this plus it happened in the early two thousand lessons have been learned and this torture will never happen again. you think they said what do you think about waterboarding i said i like it a lot don't think it started out way. it seems the bromance between donald trump at a minimum across hitting the skids somewhat after the u.s. president lashed out at his french counterpart on twitter choose day that all could meeting in paris during commemorations marking missing tenor of the first world war armistice trump turned on micron over his intentions to create a europe wide army. but it was germany and world was one and two how did that work out for france. they were starting to learn german in paris before the us came along pay for nato war
7:13 am
not. just makes it very hard to send its winds into france and charges big tariffs not the fact that must change the problem is that a manual suffers from a very low approval rate it's twenty six percent and unemployment rate of almost ten percent. makes france great to get. to petition out but is it will be we need to use whom you can defend itself for a long moreover without depending only on the us you know we did exhibits greater sovereignty. and we are. to take you live. prefer.
7:14 am
we'll talk about glasses raised as well as that is what is taunting the french president on twitter donald trump also threatened a wine war he claimed america's wines was just it was just as good as ones from bordeaux in the rest of it although that left a very sour taste for many a course in france so we put the tipples literally to the test in paris. and compulsive. the road for sale live all live on now that they're all going to get through to do this with their local steel plant real skill was. as if you build you up to get in your local little to get local think. we're going to i would say our group. root dot com would be i would write that book on the big liberal arts you know some of it. where. it is you
7:15 am
don't get very much that out of it. and i think. that's a little bit low. in the wake of. the folks in the film but the bunker with. the verdict is in hyundai is pushing clear parisians preferred the wine from the u.s. all her well maybe for once they don't rule has been vindicated as the wind from his country seems to have trumped that from france so on this occasion from paris we admit defeat but nevertheless we will always weighs a gloss and say so and say show that you can ski r.t. paris coming up for more of the stories of the week for the last seven days exchange of fire between israel and militants in gaza under the strikes from both sides and ukraine's far right parties some with children are taught to kill
7:16 am
too when we come. welcome to maximize your financial survival guide. without. yanks this is what happens defenses in britain. as a report. what politicians do. they put themselves on the line they did accept the reject. so when you want to be president and you. want to be. to the right to be press this is what i'm up for freedom or can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about how
7:17 am
. things should. i don't think the democrats are much more didn't go shake with the republicans or president so i think people are going to have to acknowledge that the united states over the next couple years is going to be consumed even more so by our internal our total bickering in affairs and. monday israeli fighter jets struck palestinian targets soft militants in gaza loans rockets on mortar shells it appears to be the most intense escalation of hostilities in the region since twenty forty at least seven palestinians and one israeli were killed many more were wounded.
7:18 am
i. i. i. was. in tandem to this israeli defense minister of italy they've been quit on wednesday in protest of the gaza ceasefire which he described as a capitulation to terror the u.n. security council held an emergency meeting on the conflict the day before in which the israeli representative and palestinian observer were at loggerheads. security council must only condemn hamas we condemn in the strongest possible terms this aggression by israel there is no such a thing both sides. but that taxon fires the result of this blockade which is immoral and illegal and it is in the humane and we will continue to take
7:19 am
any measure no measure necessary to protect our people that this round of violence was created as a result of a botched bizarrely military operation in the gaza strip it's very interesting for me to hear the israeli ambassador speak about the gaza as collation all of the victims except one of this round of escalation where palestinian all of the victims were inside gaza and not outside of the gaza strip israel bombed a t.v. station it bombed residential buildings it leveled them to the ground those are acts that are acts of terror because they did terrorize two million palestinians the latest round of escalation started because of a botched israeli undercover operation three kilometers deep inside gaza that's how the escalation started with the israeli forces killing seven
7:20 am
palestinians. ukraine's far right freedom parties organized a children's summer camp although to some it might look a bit more like a boot camp journalists from the associated press new agency visited the site where youngsters live under strict rules to learn how to be combat ready to patrol. now that's what i call a legit summer camp. both of you know about early morning wakeup calls. oh yes right by our. chance that kids will remember for the rest of their lives. was catching march. welcome to the temper of will summer camp and western ukraine it's pretty much
7:21 am
a boot camp hidden in the forest the people who set it up are from the national socialist svoboda or freedom party so who can get enrolled officially it's for teens but a.p. journalists who went there say they saw children as young as eight here they're being taught how to kill did you just listen to this you know they can still live that sealants new coal then out of system but it used to know what i was doing he should post fun things when one of them only two of his mostly. but not only do they get to learn how to take down those who adults are calling russian invaders the kids are also taught to stand up to what the instructors see as degrading trends in the west. of the us this. should make you. feel that walk if you will feel. so out of the. west that
7:22 am
was. what may seem as an ugly display of far right shaw the brainwashing appears to get full support from the local administration well earlier this year kiev splashed some of its bug. it on youth projects the goal is to prop up what they call a national patriotic education some of these projects are run by the stream far right. even the nato backed atlantic council think tank tried to raise international wariness with this article and indeed we didn't write that amnesty international's pointing out the issues more than just critical ukraine is sinking into a kill sort of uncontrolled violence posed by radical groups and the total impunity
7:23 am
practically no one in the country can feel safe under these conditions and if you're wondering if any of this could actually spill beyond ukraine well just lately and f.b.i. agents criminal complaint said ukrainian neo nazis were believed to have trained white supremacists in america just wait till some of these youngsters grow up. with this january crane passed a law recognizing russia as an aggressive state last week the twenty and vice prime minister said that his country's trying to build a strong democracy where as he said the kremlin supports populist nationalist movements jonas primadonna spoke to us about it he's been monitoring the coverage of the ukraine conflict since interrupted four years ago he believes the turning points been reached. i'm just shocked that it's finally been reported in the west i mean associated press have gone in there obviously
7:24 am
a syndication agency so obviously that you know their copy then has to be reported in other mediums i'm pleasantly surprised that you know outfits like the washington post notably have covered it although some of the usual suspects you know the guardian and outlets i doubt if ignored the story once again but that's not surprising but it's good that for the first time you know many readers in western countries are finally learning something. but what's really going on in western ukraine particular with these nationalist groups the way things work in the west is that you need pressure groups you know think tanks to kind of get on these bandwagons and kind of you know almost force the agenda and what's very interesting is here we've got children you know schoolchildren minors being trained to hate being trained to kill been trained to fight and where is amnesty international where is human rights watch i mean they're not interested i mean where is the american embassy what it's supposed moral leadership you know lashing out against this where the british embassy and that's a snapshot of some of the big stories as covered by us over the last seven days here in moscow this sunday afternoon as kevin and send things watching enjoy the rest of the week here.
