from moscow to the world this is r t international my names you know neil welcome to the program we begin in front's where thirty six thousand protesters are active this saturday as part of the movement known as the yellow vests there are ready scenes right now these are in fact live pictures in central park five thousand protesters have gathered around the arc de triomphe for the third day in a row over rising fuel costs on taxes riot police itin forces well the areas closed off more than one hundred arrests we know have been made to date and officers are using smoke grenades tear gas non live rounds to hold back the increasingly agitated crowds who are wearing the yellow vests after which their campaign is name . was i was.

i. was. when our crew has been there all morning and a correspondent from r t from luka lives year was injured by a rubber bullet fired by police catching him on the jol or very own peter all of our europe correspondent he was also caught up in tear gas on was hit on the uncle by a rubber bullets but has not stopped and joining us live on the program peter all of our joins me now peter the violence has been going on for hours now you've been there from day doth really it doesn't appear as if the authorities have a hold on what's happening at all. will. the authorities don't seem in control of this in the slightest we'll get to

them in a moment to tell you what's just happened in the the moment since the program started and we start leading up to me we've seen police and demonstrators move their way from this is the the avenue friedland that comes from the arc de triomphe it runs parallel to the police say here in paris they were moving down here we saw and you can see black smoke that billowing black smoke that comes from burning cars that are taking place in the side alleys that go over towards the the the. police say there but if we come around this way just in the moments while i was waiting to talk to you we saw this just turned over by a group of demonstrators there was then a major offensive with tear gas that's the reason my face is all bright red right now a major offensive is to use moved and water cannon move to try to move people away from this area. this hasn't been certainly doesn't seem to have been the most

coordinated police response they did seem initially to be wanting to make sure that the arc de triomphe around that central square that that was all sealed off now they seem to want to try and move people away from there as people who were originally at the ark to trail a float off into the different tributaries that flow from mount central that central square if you will it does seem that some people have to move their way back here but this was a very forceful police presence that we saw move through here that saw people run they were they came under a cloud a very thick cloud dense cloud of tear gas and they also came with water cannon at their heads. the riot police say is certainly seem from my talking to them when i speak to the police i usually speak to them is somebody saying look can you tell me what's happening they are in no mood for that here right now certainly very different from where i usually cover i'm usually based in germany the relationship you would have between the police and the journalists they're very different to

what i'm finding here in paris journalists viewed very much as the enemy here and certainly being reflected in the way that we see tear gas shells you will hear more and more fireworks flash bang grenades going off in and around us we must keep on pointing out this is just a street away from the seans allee's a one hundred fifty meters away from the arc de triomphe right now and there is a helicopter hovering very very close overhead that's causing it downdraft at the moment also blowing more of that tear gas my way unfortunately so apologies if that interrupts my my my broadcast to you but what we what we are seeing is police trying to get this under control but seemingly every time they try and shut down one street that is full of demonstrators another pops up that's twice is full of demonstrators and simply because they won't stop paying the the linkup. sweeney's group that are demonstrating this the yellow vests as they were called they spray

painted as they left the the arc de triomphe it was spray painted it saying the yellow vests will triumph that will lift certainly going to push the french authorities all of the way. one of the things that i asked people when they i was talking to them of why they have came here was essentially that why are you here what if you come out onto the streets of the french capital to say and here you come to say it to they told me this. jim and i came to protest who because we've had enough there are all sorts of taxes and purchasing power diminishing every day so we have to protest in front of the government and the president micron is not credible he wasn't credible even at the time of the election about eighty percent of the population stand by the yellow vest movement that indicates that france faces a huge number of issues we'll do everything to make a manual micron resigned on the decks we are being taxed from all sides we work we

study we raise our children now we are overtaxed so stop moving the problem aside. well even the time that that sound bite was running we're seeing more and more problems spark up around here as a fire here and. set up as a blockade across the street of one of the streets off of a new five and if this isn't so this certainly isn't going anywhere anytime soon and one of the big issues that i am seeing from this whole situation in paris is that it's not just one nucular if there isn't just one group that the police all trying to contain what we are seeing is numerous numerous numerous groups each with equal anger and intent in order to try and cause trouble that we are seeing them springing up all. across the city it's very similar in some ways to what we saw in

brussels on friday only five hundred people were present in brussels and they cause an awful lot of damage and result in the police using water cannon tear gas that we're seeing a very similar scene here in paris right now on saturday where it's a much larger group than five hundred we i would imagine there are many many thousands of people who have come out to try and take part in this demonstration also many many of the people that have been either arrested taken into custody or that have been detained we're going to move away from the smoke right now it is becoming impossible to to talk to you. many thousands that have been come out here shoot to have seen many people injured we heard from our colleague from r.t. france who's actually had to be taken to hospital myself i was shot with. thankfully my boot took most of the damage to the. it is a very unpleasant situation here in paris one of the most unpleasant situations i've been able to report from through my time covering europe it certainly is

a relentless situation certainly a situation this doesn't look like it has any end in sight right now this will end when everybody decides it's over that doesn't seem like there's any tactics being put in place by the police certainly that would bring an end to violence from demonstrators on the demonstrators themselves say they still committed to the message that they've been committed to for the last three weeks that they want an end to price rises they want an end to the rising cost of living and ultimately what most of them are saying to me they want an end to a manual mccrone the man who the french president who is in argentina right now and meeting with other world leaders perhaps his attention could well be drawn back hey it's affronts our europe correspondent peter all of her moving from street to street in the very center of the french capital re showing us what is going on on the ground this saturday peter thank you. well last week the protests

in central park this also turned violent here's a quick look back at how you know we're going there were. no. one in response to the protest the french government they maintain that fuel taxes need to remain close. current levels to pay for public services the tax is also part of broader efforts to discourage car use cut carbon emissions meanwhile the

yellow vests are also making their presence felt in belgium torching two police vehicles on friday during unrest in the capital brussels based journalist lugar of a told me earlier high prices are making life difficult for people in both countries. this demonstration added canceled because the organizers couldn't organize the security they said to the police so they had origin make cancelled it and it's only through social media and a few hundred people were there at ten o'clock to demonstrate of these yellow vests oh like in france of course it's mainly in the french speaking part of the country of belgium but they demonstrate imitating the french and in a sense but with the same ideas that taxation has come to. pave all levels people very peaceful everywhere with a yellow first to say that they were fed up with the taxes especially the tax on diesel the price of the few is sixty percent taxes fifty five to sixty percent

depending on the country it's much too high and when you have a single mother with kids in the country who needs her car to go to work and earns one thousand one hundred may be met and has to pay three hundred three hundred fifty four for petrol or gas as you said american they can't do it anymore they're dying simply and it's the silent majority that pays its taxes normally. moving on to other global news this hour leaders of the world's biggest economies have gathered in argentina where they're facing the challenge of trying to get on the same page contending with trade turbulence and political upheaval to name but a few issues we look back at all the big developments from day one and ahead as well as the second and final day of the g. twenty summit gets going.

yeah and that is really the theme cullman gras and that's what world leaders in argentina are trying to find in a in an ever shifting. business of trade wars strained relations well our correspondent trying to he reports on the hot button issues being talked about mainly on the sidelines in buenos aires. but on thursday donald trump pulled the breaking news trigger by tweeting right on the plane i won't meet with putin because of the ukraine the us administration made it clear they were trying to send a strong message to russia and they wanted everyone to hear and boy to feel that the aggression that we witnessed this week on acceptable and strong

messages from some place. was a strong message just through isolation isolation. the russian side says they were losing the opportunity for direct contact with mr trump somewhere here at the venue but in any case there were plenty of other meetings planned for both presidents who began his day in addis with the

leaders of brazil south africa india and china they got together as brics so there was a kind of a summit within a summit later in the day vladimir putin met emmanuel macron and a journalists who works with the french president reported that he actually took a piece of paper and draw a map for mr macron to show what actually happened between russian and ukrainian ships in the current strait speaking of mr macron he was one of the leaders who ended up being caught in a string of bad luck either before they arrived at the g. twenty. or right after they got here. everything was scheduled down to the last minute but when we got direction now we

understood president macron was already getting into his car. elect the turkey. paddle. illegal or legal. election. yeah fascinating work come or go isn't it well we got the thoughts of former u.s. congressman ron paul he told us that trump's isolation tactics could end up

backfiring on the u.s. . that sounds like high school stuff you know i'm not going to talk to you anymore and on occasion i'll agree with our president but then the way the way talks in the aggressiveness i'll do this i'll give you this or up or sanctions on you and threats are involved so i don't think that's a good i'm concerned about that for our viewpoint from us our viewpoint because when i look at what happens to countries that have a reserve currency spend too much money go deeply in debt stretch themselves too far you know not too long ago a soviet system did that they got in the trouble so i think that if anybody is should be mauled or burned should be worried about it it should be the americans being you know isolated and that would be detrimental in a way i sort of like some independence and not these you know international organizations but that's not what would be coming isolation it would be painful for

us because someday there will be a challenge to the dollar and then there will be a big problem for united states. while the world leaders were preparing to get done to business people poured into the streets of buenos aires to voice their frustration obviously or witnessed some of the demonstrations. this matias really the culmination of a week long state and teachy twenty protests what she see here it's across the spectrum of people that i am not because they are anti capitalist they are union with test there are students feminists you name it people have turned out the entire city is in lockdown today has been declared a public holiday and topic transport has been cancelled flights are being diverted

now the argentinean authorities are taking no chances some twenty. thousand police and security officers have been deployed. well there's turbulence not only on the streets but our run the summit table two leaders still have plenty to do this if they were to agree on a joint statement at the conclusion of the g. twenty in a new look currents whatever comes from those discussions we will be following the statements on movements of presidents putin and russia's leader is meeting with his german argentinean counterparts for talks later on well our correspondents have it all covered in buenos aires on air and online. the bad the people who run the economy price money the commodity that runs the

economy they say it's more are the signs i mean they're just making it up as they go along it means that there is no principle that they are guided by they consider themselves artists because of the self impressionist they consider themselves completely subjective in their view of the world that they can simply raise rates and lower rates based on when there's nothing guiding them in economic reality there's no school of economics there's no science behind it it's pure wind. we should. reduce cuz we're rican. chancellor merkel. who choose between germany and russia. to steroid group truth is quite easy and really forced. to loop through.

ok we start book stateside where a while the west party has made more than a few people live it now for american actor and comedian kevin hart the themed event for his one year old songs birthday his wife posted several images of the party and instagram showing their friends and family club in native american inspired tribal print blankets and not made many i agree online saying that playing cowboy and indians is not acceptable anymore. how boys and indians can you not afford a publicist who would explain the reality if such a terrible idea throwing a cowboys and indians birthday party on thanksgiving celebrates genocide white

supremacy and slavery maybe next year he could have a master slave owners and slaves party people need to understand the genocide of indigenous people in this country it was horrific and nothing cute about it stop perpetuating this as cute it's not or kevin hart has had his say he is all of the belief the criticism he's been getting points the summon deep problems in modern culture this shows just how stupid our world is becoming with opinion people are at a point of an all time high to throw racial judgment into the development of a one year old birthday party with the theme of cowboys and indians and it's him it's it's based around the outfits that are given to these young kids there are a lot of people agreeing with him a lot of him disagreeing as well online in fact the reaction we heard range from

whether the party sends the wrong message to children or it's just innocent toddlers playing violent games. conversation we're having here is why the implications are much broader at first glance oh it's just a one year old's birthday party but here's the thing about it a lot of the decisions we make as adults are based on information that we received as children the truth of the matter is that some of that information was incorrect when you were a child and you say i want to dress up like an indian or we can argue whether it's indian with a native american the child does not say now i get to realize the fact that these people are racially inferior to me and i can celebrate the subjugation of these people by virtue of white forebears and that's not what happens is it's a child who says i like to dress like that because we whitewashed history so much few people are even willing to deal with it because they're so blind to what's been

really going on around them as we believe that that'll zakk what was behind this statue or peel back when behind this giving celebration lay began the legal side a real issue when we played cowboys and indians we never said can i play the cowboy so i can slaughter the plains indian no it was i'll be the indian you be the cowboy we're kids were pretending but what do you pretend to do with them you pretend to shoot them you pretend to tie them up to shoot them arrow what we're talking about is little kids who are innocent at each juncture of these moments in history where we unveil the truth we get closer to ensure wrestling the real underlying issue of racism in america this is going to right now show the rest of the world with all due respect that and i mean this how absolutely pathetic this is that

seemingly grown adults are talking about the racial implications and the appropriation of culture. little kids who want to dress up like indians. ok we're going to go to some great progress in just a moment but first i want to bring you back to our top story and give you really a feel of what is happening right now in the french capital paredes these are the images we've been seeing all day long from early morning those yellow vest protesters coming out beginning with throwing fireworks what we're seeing in the last number of hours are cars being set alight our correspondents there as well they were hit with rubber bullets police been fired by police police also you are using tear gas water cannon to try and disperse these protesters absolutely thousands of them right now this saturday afternoon in part on the very busy for a firm scholem's elisei leaving office two in

a row in those streets that area is closed off but so many people right there we will just leave you with some of the. of what is happening right now in. a very fluid situation a lot of anger on the ground authorities not seemingly able to control what is occurring. to. give. us veterans who come back from war. stories. were going after the people who

were killing civilians. they were not interested in the well being of their own soldiers either there are already several generations of them so i just got this memo from the serger defense's office that says we're going to attack and destroy the government and seven countries in five years americans pay for the wars with them money those with their lives if we were willing to go into harm's way and willing to risk being killed for a war surely we can risk some discomfort or an easy. goal make us manufacture consent to step into the public will. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the finest larry go

around listen to the one percent. we can all middle of the room sit. room. this is both of us broadcasting around the world and covering the world of business and finance and the impact upon all of us i'm far children washington we're sure glad you're with us coming up today we had to boil ariz again thought of a g twenty meeting for report from artie's hughes and will spend some time looking at argentina and the i.m.f. with mark was brought to the co-director of the center for economic policy research
