11:04 am
a third weekend of protests and perhaps the most violent yet give us a sense of what's occurring now as evening the sense. right will is no sense in the vibe there's no sense at all of the violence will be stopping anytime soon what we're seeing is a large group of people it's over to my right which is the avenue ground army there was a a vehicle on fire there that we were we're seeing moments ago police are trying to move people out what we're hearing from most that had been involved in the men lay around that fire that had flames licking up into the parisians sky they were saying that actually it come about after people are taken their weapons from the french police the prison police off them and use them against their own vehicles if we come around with the camera to my right there was a building on fire one of those embassy buildings that surrounds the the octave
11:05 am
triomphe where we are right now one of those buildings was on fire this is really one of the situations whereby we took you know what is going to be burning next it has being violent since it started that is one thing that's for sure one of our colleagues from the front service of french language service he was hit in the face with a rubber bullet he's got to be taken to the to the to the to to plea to the hospital i beg your pardon in order to be able to get treatment for that myself i was hit with another one of those possible rounds in the leg i can tell you they really do they really do leave a mark what the gentleman was just shouting they're essentially mccrone must resign and that's something we've seen spray. or excuse excuse me excuse me and i apologies for anybody that may be offended by the language that was used there as we can see tensions are running high sometimes people don't know where they should be using that what i. i would suggest this right now we go to
11:06 am
a sound bite from people who told me why they came here to be part of this demonstration. 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 it that think we are being taxed from all sides roots or we study we raise our children now we are overtaxed so stop moving the problem aside. ok we just lost a little bit of connection with our correspondent peter all over who is fending away a lot of people who want to be on screen apologies if you heard any. bad language used by some of them so these are the scenes right now in the parlous where
11:07 am
more and more people have been coming to got arc de triomphe central area in paris and also the shoulders elisei about busy thora fur of shops and cultural centers museums completely closed all day long and all the people are complaining on twitter that they couldn't get there or do any shopping go home as well people working in the morning. not able to get into the area where the police were trying to keep the protesters. yet were just trying to get a connection with peter it doesn't look as if we can come up the moment we'll try a little bit later because there are reports that perhaps he was involved in some court. part of a scuffle or something he had been expecting here being shot earlier of course but let's just listen to what the head of france's police trade union has been.
11:08 am
telling us that he's of the view the protesters are largely supported by those tasked with keeping order to this. in fact most of my colleagues supports the yellow vests movement as we are affected a lot by the fuel price rise to the fore but we can't live without i just thought we were either because it costs too much because we have to rest on neighbors colleagues on the ground have to follow the orders of those who are not on the ground. yes so a lot of anger on the streets a lot of opposition to that anger with the police let's get some live reaction with french publisher and journalist i'm rick more wiil who joins us on the program welcome a third consecutive weekend. and violent protests we're seeing today but yet no real response from president mccrone why do you think that is. there was a response one member of the government saying that what was going on on the
11:09 am
chandeliers that was brown plage that is not so it means that it's not an answer it's an insult it's an insult to french people who suffered so which suffered so much during the nazi rule in france during the war and the minister of the interior said it was a far right but you know it's eighty percent of the french people room just simply cannot make ends meet so you cannot put a few really good gas in their car because. it's like bread in the engine three it's absolutely normal where you are not we don't have any oil. big oil fields or like your like you are in russia we just have only one percent. we produce only one per cent if you will know what we eat what we need in france so it's necessary but just after i do so i want to just point out with what his supporters are saying present mccraw means that his hands are essentially tied over
11:10 am
a field because prices are prices of diesel and that in that sense he can't really do anything. you know you know if you would do a lot of things if you could change is support is supporting the banking c.e.o. he was a bank you know for rush rothschild he is a member of the finance so it's not in this software to make concessions of people's concessions to people but you must do that but that's he has in front of him not brown plays off our rights movements or things he has the entire people who doesn't want us is policy is not legitimate anymore and what happens now because this is the third weekend america do you see this progressing and progressing until a change is done or are we going to see more crackdown from authorities. well yes if they invented this week they invented a plot from north korea and north korea should have hired someone in the senate who
11:11 am
was are working in the gardens and argue church or in the senate so they are this drunk bloke from one or one hand on the other hand there are commies with north korea trying to invade france it's completely ridiculous the government is completely going all right you can't help but think that president mccrone must be at the very least embarrassed by the scenes going on in his country while he is at the g. twenty in argentina. will that affect his thought process at all in either way. yes it's true that france needs a refreshing of his image i think is not legitimately made abroad of course it's not illegitimate to rule two because. everyone knows that he was elected or only sixty percent of the people because it was a lot of party useful but it's not very representative of the real french and the
11:12 am
peripheral french not of the friends of the big city not the metro for france is completely against him and is that there is reaching against him and not on neutral fuel prices even if it's important but only for the cost of large because they have seen the for chasing or completely destroyed during the medical area french publisher and journalist i reckon morefield thank you very much for your time this hour and your thoughts. thank you ok well let's not return to the streets of paris we were speaking earlier to our correspondent peter all of her was there peter wasn't able to speak to us because he was involved in some sort of copy to explain what's going on with you and indeed right where you are. well i think it's i think it's best to say that. that opinions and emotions are certainly running high here in paris right now we've seen and as we saw when i was
11:13 am
trying to speak to you earlier on a number of people incredibly upset particularly with the french media they thought we were from one of the french broadcasters they were insisting that we stop broadcasting once we told them that we wouldn't well now we've been allowed to again it is a very tense situation here it's a very tense situation one in which just over to my my right here we've seen one building that was set on fire that is now being extinguished and we're also seeing over to my left and another running battle between police and demonstrators is currently unfolding we're seeing tear gas fired by the police we're also seeing bricks piece of masonry thrown by the the demonstrators as well. people are extremely unhappy here that is the one thing the one thing that runs through all of the different elements that come to make up the the yellow jackets the yellow vests as they called there from the right there from the left they say to me that they
11:14 am
had just normal people trying to make ends meet and at these increases in petrol and diesel and fuel costs is just the final straw that will put them under a knot is being relevant in the way that we've seen them demonstrating and we're expecting to see just over my right shoulder another movement by the police to come out from here and try and get people out of the central square of the of the the arc to triumph which is just over to the left. certainly still developing here it's certainly still continuing. yes there are a number of people as you can see always wanting to be on camera some people always want to make the story about them as you can see all they want to make it about algeria as you can see this is probably where i'm going to have to leave you union i'll speak. peter we've spoken many times from conflict zones around the world me in the studio you i think it's one of the most vocal places and one of the most
11:15 am
animated i've seen you there absolutely lots going on on the streets in part peter thank you so much for the latest yellow vests protesting horace. ok i was we were speaking about earlier the president of france is right now in argentina valleys where leaders of the world's biggest economies have gathered there facing the challenge of trying to get on the same page contending with trade turbulence and political upheaval it is day two of the annual g. twenty summit. yeah the big issue today global leaders in argentina trying to find common ground in an ever shifting landscape of trade wars and strained relations reports on the
11:16 am
hot button issues being talked about 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 assad is to feel that the aggression that we missed this week is unacceptable and so strong message has been some place. was a strong message just through isolation the isolation.
11:17 am
the russian side says they were grad 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 white america who began his day in august 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 mack want to show what actually happened between russian and ukrainian
11:18 am
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 he's car.
11:19 am
well we got the thoughts of former u.s. congressman ron paul he told us that trump's isolation tuck ticks could end up backfiring on the u.s. . that sounds like high school stuff i'm not going to talk to you anymore and on occasion i'll agree with our president but then the way he way talks in the aggressiveness i'll do this i'll give you this or op or sanctions on you and that the threats are involved i don't think that's good i'm concerned about that for our viewpoint from us our viewpoint because when i look at what happens to countries
11:20 am
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. they got into trouble so i think that if anybody is should be mauled everyone 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 that will be a big problem for united states. well the business of globalization all those other issues were happening inside. of people poured into the streets of wayne us ariz to voice their frustration poultice leader witnessed some of the demonstrations.
11:21 am
this march is really the culmination of a week long state and twenty protests what you see here is a cross spectrum of people that i am not because they are anti capitalist they are union with us 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 public transport has been cancelled flights are being diverted now the argentinean authorities are taking no chances some twenty two thousand police and security officers have been deployed. turbulence not only on the streets but to run the table two leaders still with plenty to do that if they were to agree on not at tradition a joint statement at the conclusion of the g twenty well whatever comes from those
11:22 am
discussions will be following the statements of movements all presidents putin russia's leader is meeting with his german argentinian counterparts for talks or correspondents have it covered in buenos aires. a lot. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you long for the rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent just last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar ai industrial park but don't let the numbers
11:23 am
overwhelm. the only numbers you need remember one one doesn't show you can't afford to miss the one and only. join me every day on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest on the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. twenty three minutes past seven pm in moscow welcome back a wild west parties made more than a few people livid after american actor and comedian kevin hart sell the theme de
11:24 am
mint for his one year old songs birthday his wife posted a number of pictures of the party on instagram showing their friends and family clan to native american inspired tribal print like it's well made to many angry online saying that playing cowboys and indians is not acceptable anymore. cowboys 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. what kevin hart himself didn't take it lying
11:25 am
down the entertainment i called said that the criticism he's been getting points to some deep problems in the modern culture the 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 is cowboys and indians and it's him it's it's based around the outfits that are given to these young kids we got some reaction to this ranging really from whether the party sends the wrong message to children one person said yes it does the other we spoke to said let's just innocent top posting a link. 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
11:26 am
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 could 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 be that that'll back 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
11:27 am
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 your scientists 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 kevin nolan will be here in thirty with all the latest updates on a busy news day he'll be going live to argentina to france for more on those two big stories but first here in our international a story of
