people also give already comes in for just twelve euros fifty per month. week of demonstrations across. with violence in the streets of. london but the difficulty opening. because we've just.

finally promises to intervene in the case of. the united arab emirates. maybe the world should be the world. every country should bear responsibility for the. same time. against iran. so it's been a busy week for your stories here on r.t. international let's run through the. weekly. has been hit by a week of angry demonstrations. in fuel prices led by people wearing bright yellow around eighty thousand protesters. nationwide with violence flaring up.

throughout the week. throughout the country including. in the. as you can see behind me. around hundred yellow vests these are going to blockade roads and roundabouts like this this is one of the main you. trees that would go from blue on all the way to paris and what they're saying is that president might call a said what's the things he said he's going to come into power he's going to make reforms he's going to change the french economy for the better but the people here say there is noone magic formula and so for corn hasn't brought in a magic formula it's not about politics we're all equal and we're all here against the french government is clear to everybody this is mccrum became president prices have increased food fuel it's all gone up we don't want them anymore i want to

change the system. as long as micron keeps clowning around with his pelham pimpin powder as he likes to say well we'll do the same we'll stay here. it's getting a little rowdy no as you can see the yellow vests protesters have taken over this section all the roads and they are now completely in control of it and trying to stop the traffic from coming through for the moment it looks like things are heating up being the last few nights there have been barely a huge number of school which is between the police and the protest is. outside a street to the entrance of the earlies a price rise you can see take gas has been fired by the police that's as the protesters were trying to enter into that street to get close to it seriously

ellie's a perilous. was . the out. the have a bit of difficulty opening my eyes right now and that's because we've just been in the midst of all of this tear gas as you can see a big. eyes red is really hard to open them and at the moment they are just a burning uncontrollably. the police are coming with having to move not because they're all being pushed up the street scenes of the tear gas into the protest is it really is absolutely crazy here on the streets of paris.

this is a road just off the arc de triomphe and as you can see here we've got some of the stooges they've become infamous in paris of late they're burning here this is one of the barricades have been put in place we're actually being shouted out by a protester right you have telling us to not show people's faces and that's because there has been suggestion that this movement has been hijacked by radicalized individuals from the left and from the right and they woundings ahead to this protest in paris that it was going to get hot and it seems that those warnings are absolutely right it was not just all just fuel protests in protest against the cost of living and living standards here france but it just seems that people now all purely angry at the situation and the fact that the president is still refused to meet them to discuss the problems in this country. one hundred and thirty protesters were detained across the country on saturday forty two of them in paris and nineteen enjoyed it for police officers as well the french president and i

don't. strongly condemning the violence. thanks to our lord forces for their courage and professionalism shame on those who attacked them shame on those who've abused of the citizens and journalists shame on those who try to intimidate elected officials there is no room for this violence in the republic. the u.k. is under pressure to justify a stop. i swear the united arab emirates off to abu dhabi sentenced a british academic to life in jail on spying charges london has now promised to intervene and matthew had his wife had been appealing to the government to do so for five months she. says that london's an auction was caused by a fear of upsetting a crucial trading partner i was under the impression that they were putting their interests with a ball of a british citizens. right full freight and i'm in

a hearing without a lawyer matthew hedges was sentenced to life in prison on wednesday accused of spying for the u.k. he's already spent five months in solitary confinement he has a ph d. student who went to the u.a.e. to research the twenty year life and our spring uprising. w. says it is reviewing a request for clemency from hedgers family and denies claims of unfair treatment but the case has prompted a wave of criticism with calls for a reevaluation of britain's relationship with the oil rich gulf ally and what had you as was first incarcerated in abu dhabi the u.k. government was at the time trying to encourage new trade deals with the u.a.e. and i see a truck going up picks up the story. accused of spying and jailed for life that's now the fate of a british academic researcher in the united arab emirates an ally and friend of the u.k. but how much trouble is this case likely to stir up between the two given what's at stake we are incredibly disappointed that the us should do this we see no

foundation in the charges that have been laid against him there will be serious diplomatic consequences for a country that says that it is a friend and ally of the united kingdom for months had just wife says her repeated requests for help have fallen on deaf ears at the foreign office and they just disregarded my request they said that it wasn't part of their job the british prime minister says the u.k. is on top of things and doing everything it can we already see it with the i'm wrong tool for which is the highest level my marginal friend the foreign secretary is urgently seeking it cool with the foreign minister abdullah it is doing his visit to the u.a.e. on november twelfth he raised the issue with both the crown prince mohammed bin side and the foreign minister incidentally also in the emirates last week a u.k. trade minister with fifteen british companies promoting economic ties between the two countries u.a.e. is the fifth largest trading partner for the u.k.

outside europe coming after us a japan china and hong kong and bilateral trade is now growing in double digits in october the u.a.e. ambassador to the u.k. said there is hope of bilateral trade reaching twenty five billion pounds by twenty twenty it is currently at over seventeen. billiam so could the price tag of this long term cooperation and being worth more than ruffling feathers over the fate of one citizen problem for treason government is that they're talking at the moment because of the briggs's of taking back control reasserting so foreign to you and that puts them in a dilemma they don't want to be seen to be weak on an issue like this abroad but on the other hand they also need to be building economic bridges outside the e.u. maybe again the government of the emirates is thinking the british can't possibly push this too far because they're on a weekly economic hit the british could of course withdraw the military

support and by extension their supply of military equipment and at the same time they could face the consequences of an m.r.i. economic boycott of. russia has a line influence reaches even as far as children's entertainment at least if some western media are to be believed. globally a claim but russian t.v. cartoon series of being designed to sway young minds is our correspondent jacqueline for. that little sweetheart was marsha from the cartoon and the bear originally russian the series has been translated into dozens of languages and won the hearts of millions across the globe but it turns out there may be a sinister side to the enduring little girl and her protective hat trying to.

now what russia has forgotten to mention there is that some cartoons are in fact evil putin propaganda yep according to a times u.k. article marsha is just another putin pop it is feisty even. but also plucky she punches above her weight is not far fetched to see is putin s. but it seemed to be particularly worried about one scene and a single episode where moshe is seen wearing a soviet border guards hat. apparently that's meant to be a statement on russia's defense of its borders but even if we say that's true what kind of kid would pick up on that but hey it's best start when they're young right the studio behind this propaganda masterpiece of course denies being influenced by the kremlin's hand saying they received no state funding but we did a bit of digging and found some ominous signs you simply can't ignore here comes the kremlin for all of two seconds that could easily be interpreted as

a soviet red star disguised as an innocent christmas decoration and you may not realize it but the weird hat that must have got on here is a traditional russian hat now i know those examples aren't so much propaganda as they are just random russian things but that's all we could try but we're not it turns out the bare itself is a representation of russia as a whole you see bear you think russia right the base symbolizes russia it's a fact it's a struggle for the minds part of a hybrid explosion in which a negative image of russia is replaced by a positive oh the horror the horror now you know what your children are being exposed to and can protect them accordingly. the bear are not coming to invade your homeland masha and the van is hybrid wolf that. is british empire apologist and who sums up american decadence that's.

my nephew is watching my very cute they don't seem to be particularly indoctrinated . i really really do not want to read more about how masha and the bat used to his propaganda. i can confirm that i watched two episodes of their when i was nine. i suddenly became a twitter who speaks russian. the international space station celebrated a major birthday on tuesday twenty years ago russia launched the first more jewel of this orbiting science lab is an anniversary message from the crew on board. of the. more than two hundred people from eighteen countries have visited the set of the space station over the years it's become an example of close international cooperation not least a beacon of warming relations between cold war rivals is

a quick look at how the russia u.s. friendship developed to the moon. so you would ski american ski enough to get the experience that you let it be. stuck to your book yet. you more got a promotion that. the mission which you need for forty feet of i think the population rather better or for your real.

difference if this was to her during all these years i could sit there all that's enough for you are all for a brother but. they were cutting new ground they said well gosh let's see if we can build a bigger space station and what can we do one of the problems that might come up and what you learn. some more money interesting and doesn't just give you more of them some listen it was forceful free media literacy will mean. that you suddenly choose the media you see new things to feel to it seems the only real easter thing in similar.

many of the nations that have not always me from the. opposite have a little clip of them come. together hear me back from this and figure other leaders are responsible for the future and forget the. but living in close quarters and zero gravity i mean some pretty clever designs for the modules that do make up the. r.t.s. you could have done if i got access to the simulators where future action or to get to grips with home and space.

in a way the international space station is the largest lego puzzle in the world because see it wasn't moved into orbit in one piece at first it was just one cargo module this is the exact replica that it's name in russian means sunrise and indeed it did become the dawn of the i assess as we know it's. this small jewel a star is more of a living space there's a cubicle here a dining space also there's a docking simulation as well where cosmonauts practice they're so used to walking skills but some things i didn't plain sight because this is an actual space exercise bike. we got as close as we could to russia's work horse rocket the saw use during the journey to

and from the international space station this is the module where crews spend hours of their time and i mean it's not very spacious it's actually looks small even for one person while it is designed to fit three inside it's a real work station there are no random things here to mourn it is just to showcase all sorts of technical information about how the rocket is doing indicators but the most crucial the buttons that attend the most crucial commands they're actually hidden behind small covers like this so we have to be lifted so that they are not touched by accident or with them. among these problems there's one that might seem strange command to depressurize the cabin to let all of the air out even while the ships into orbit it so that the crew can put out a fire because this button is extremely important it has additional protection this

small screw when the rocket detects a malfunction or a message lights up on this board among them this one particular ball which we pretend to ignore says rocket failure is this top left one it turns red in the alarm goes off. for twenty years this station has been home away from home for adventurous visionaries overachievers risk takers people of action it's instilled a passion for discovering the unknown in our generation. you're watching that weekly here on r.t. international and still to come leonardo da vinci has been dragged into a rile between the french president and the tally and officials that's in the mix of your sunday weekly stories just.

on the lying circumstances that allowed for these emergence of this very very lengthy violence i. i think that we may get the sons and even grandsons of the irish at some point in the future it's primarily a political issue now that has taken minutes with. the traditions.

of. the sunday program here on r t welcome to it dozens of people including children have been hospitalized after an apparent chemical attack launched by militants on the syrian city of aleppo that's according to the russian defense ministry and you show you images of a victims receiving medical treatment and medics say they exhibited symptoms consistent with that of chlorine exposure a russian military chemist so now working at the scene of the attack the russian defense ministry says the attack on a residential area in the northern part of the province was carried out at night the shelling came from the area controlled by to rare al shaab an al qaeda affiliated group in neighboring ately province the syrian military reportedly

launched a counter attack in response to the shelling. the murder of journalist jamal khashoggi is making more headlines now donald trump has suggested it's the world that ought to be blamed for his killing. held accountable. maybe the world should be only accountable because the world is a vicious blois world is a very very vicious place a white house statement titled standing with saudi arabia claims that the whole truth behind killing might never be known and adds that actions already been taken in the saudi arabia remains a steadfast partner specially when it comes to countering iran. iran's foreign minister zarif called trump's words shameful. mr trump bizarrely devotes the first paragraph of his shameful statement on saudi atrocities to accusing iran of every sort of malfeasance he can think of perhaps who are also responsible for the california fires because we didn't help break the forests just like the fins do.

saudi officials eventually admitted he was killed in their it's double consulate last month and he claimed rove operation riyadh has denied any awareness of the planned killing but has charged eleven officials washington meantime has sanctioned seventeen saudi individuals for their alleged role in the assassination of. trump's insistence that saudi arabia is a key partner in fighting iran has spotted an angry reaction in pots of the american media with some suggesting the u.s. president has caved in to riyadh. however president trump today chose a different path something more along the lines of the world a very dangerous place and because it is we should let murderers get away with it especially if the murderers are paying us lots of money now we're left to figure out why the president is telling that lie why he's going so far out of this way to cover for the country and specifically the ruler that carried out this killing of

a u.s. resident and us journalist question the morality of course are entirely absent as they usually are from u.s. government policy as long as those willing to to give big contracts to trump refers to is all the great american companies that are causing so much havoc around the world and i'm sure they're going to continue to kill people this is a this is a terrible thing president troubles doing. leonardo da vinci has been dragged into a royal between the french president and italy's deputy prime minister who have been trading insults online romance reconsidering loaning the masters priceless works for a major exhibition in paris. we need to renegotiate everything the french cannot have to they're not easy to tell and he only died in france to give the louvre all these paintings would put italy on the margins of a major cultural event power says that. museum was hoping to borrow some of defense

she's notable works for a big. when twenty nineteen marking five hundred years since his death rome stressed that france in that case should learn something equally important perhaps like the mona lisa i wonder the current agreement the louvre is due to loan works by another italian renaissance master raphael for a twenty twenty exhibition marking the anniversary of his death we talk to people in both countries about where they think the paintings should be showing. us to. just jump out of. any diety out there is just good to see the saudi our son was his with us here evidence that he died you know i'm sorry they don't spill some of the media again holy year steve arsinoe the fans who didn't get to keep them on the.

famously. for free they. didn't say your feet see. she dove in and we're now up to date being tough to see a lot of new fans to see any time but many see me in a video that you. did you could. be. going to mean. going to mean. well but. you don't need to be on. and that is the weekly for this hour here on international there are plenty more of

your weekly headlines still to come at the top of the hour. when lawmakers manufacture consent instant of public wealth. when the ruling classes project themselves. with the financial merry go round of lives only the one percent. of the time we can all middle of the room signals. mean real news is real world. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show an obvious reason to get us out of the world of

politics or business i'm show business i'll see you there. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race is on offer and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical of dying time to sit down and talk.

lessons became the place where my dream felt like my dream could be realized and i would like to stay here. i was twenty seven when i came here. i was inside me and my girlfriend we had a we had a place together so i was paying half the rainy she was paying to have to live so we were inside for three years. i met on the street here using i got off the drugs and got it down to drinking beer but her liver had already ran its course she needs she didn't want to get on

a liver transplant so. she died from cirrhosis of the liver but tight. on my songs is stu's me based on something that i'm experienced or and something that's happened to me that's when the booze you know maybe comes from within i mean gospel. army booze country. they all have. they all tell stories. when i don't hear the last thing. that. put them. as far as the streets ready you never know what's going to happen in a day in a week just how things go you know there's not just here is this everywhere it's like wildfire you know los angeles.
