you know world big. and yours it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. the french government tries to work out how to deal with nationwide protests against fuel prices at central paris reels from his worst riots in a decade. just hours from now it's a new mission to the international space station lifting off the first since

a failed launch almost two months ago we reported from the baikonur cosmodrome also ahead for you. police drills are held on the us mexico border with thousands of people fleeing poverty from all across latin america expected to attempt. we also look at how foreign aid pouring into the region may well be doing more harm than good. quite eleven am now on monday here in moscow this is the international a very warm welcome to. the french capital is reeling after the most violent riots there in decades what started as a protest against fuel prices spiraled out of control with windows smashed and the . lies to the president or my own to the aftermath of the rampage trend was met

with simmering anger. to charlotte you've a few standing by in central paris to charlotte short of good morning to you various analysts we've spoken to say micron is in a very tough position amid this on the rest how is his administration trying to quell these historic protests. well there are difficult days ahead indeed for the french government and the french president he returned back from the g. twenty summit in argentina on sunday morning and one of the first things he did was schedule emergency talks with members of his cabinet now he's tossed the french

prime minister phillipe with speaking to other political leaders in france and also trying to hold talks with the yellow vests movement that's been difficult so far because the movement doesn't have leaders. spokespeople last week eight they had six of those origine refused to speak to the prime minister but there are reports this morning that the yellow best movement ease ready for dialogue with the government but they've said that the main thing that the moon is action on the price the taxes will use and souple that something that might go on has been very reticent to now we also know that during that security that emergency meeting that was held yesterday there was also discussions that the interior minister would look at ways for the security forces to deal with any more potential mayhem as a result of the protests and. that is a possibility that france could declare a new state of emergency. just a year after the last one ended as

a way of dealing with the waves of violence that we've seen in france particularly here in paris it's now been three weeks of protests and while they was massive violence here and mayhem and chaos in paris there was also violence on the fringe of the protests taking part of course of the country let's get a flavor now of what happened over the weekend here in paris. but. the fact. that.

you are going. well so who all the yellow vests will this is sporadic spontaneous social movement this started about three weeks ago in front of the first mass demonstration was held on new members seventeenth and this started about the issue over the tax oldfield which has gone up by more than twenty percent to some fuels in the last twelve months under the my presidency but what it shifted into is a ploy of anguish from people across france saying that they see high unemployment there's issues with services in rural areas and generally about the high cost of living here in france but other members of the yellow vest movement that i've been speaking to of the last few weeks also say that this is a movement now against the political system here in france something that they want to change and they want to do that from the streets they're already plans. another

protest next saturday in paris and for the. support of the french people with polls suggesting that. three people who are still. full support in changing not just the political landscape here but trying to reduce the cost of living and trying to shift. the gaps between the working and the rich. speak life in paris thank you but we also spoke with political commentary. possible. not just the gas prices but it's a general policy of the government the problem is that it's not most of the government because the government the orders from the european commission and the european commission want to balance the budget and do in the public services and that has been going on for years and years and years and.

the solution to everything in his head. extremely detached from reality. understand the depth of the problem and the. fans when they see this level of competence and. the depth of the problem of the reality of this. is that. they don't seem to. much deeper and has to do with. me and. just hours from now soyuz rocket will be lifting off destination international space station it will be the first manned flight since a failed mission almost two months ago and the expedition is carrying three crew members. it's by far the most experienced having been to space three times already

and her colleagues canadian davis and jackson and american and mclean will be their first flight relatives of the crew members though are also at the launch site to see them off. dad told me everything he's worried about because he still has that but he says he got willing everything is going to be fine analyses murray from national is also at the baikonur cosmodrome. had to walk through a garden drawn these preparations made a loop routine they've been doing it for sixteen years the rocket is assembled to look at this it's ready then transported to the launch site where it's raised to a vertical position plenty of fuel then check and double check.

it was done here when the first human was sent to space from here yuri gagarin but these time is different the last men launch didn't go well no one wants that to happen again. so first a cult started smoothly but ninety seconds into the flight something went wrong in the family home to photograph. while separating the rocket stages to each other the fifty meters three hundred ton construction was quick. the automatic emergency system immediately aborted that mission until the crew capsule . instead of going to the international space station they landed. kazakhstan's and liz steps hundreds of kilometers from way they had

taken off just minutes earlier this will dinner's is where they merges the capsule with two fortunate crewmembers landed safely. the russian cosmonaut and american astronaut seemed unharmed after the incident on the little blue given that they fell from a height of fifty kilometers making a steep ballistic descend on their force many times stronger than gravity some cold days kate and miracle. special commission was formed do the best to gauge what went wrong three weeks later they reached their conclusion a sensor that was supposed to detect the separation of the stagers was faulty. the reason behind the failure was operational reaction occur due to a fault in a sensor so this could only happen at the assembly stage of the baikonur cosmodrome . behind me is where they put the rockets parts together as always

manually and this is where i think best to gator's relieve the sensor metal detail that big was deformed to trigger in their margin see lending securities higher than ever extra people are invited to supervise the prices no journalists are allowed inside but we've got the video of the space agency shared with us what they call a technical shooting they filmed assembly in fine detail every screw every joint they know now it may help the investigation. just seven weeks after the feeler baikonur is ready for the next man flight further delay could disrupt the work of the isis and the crew some of them witnessed their fortieth launch in october seem more confident than ever in the russian technology that carries astronauts to the international space station in a way with a single. to me was actually reassuring. the smart design was so used in the

incredible work that this is in this. year on the ground can you really do every every day i went inside feeling to be safe is a bit small. so is any time i wish to. take part in the design but i ate and a half minutes off to take off the seniors is expected to reach all of it and just six hours late to talk with the international space station but this time it will feel much longer and refreshed see from baikonur in kazakhstan. with thousands of people heading from all across latin america towards the united states as part of the so-called migrant caravan large scale police drills are being staged along that border. i.

thank. law enforcement officials have been marching in full riot gear and practicing setting off. a many of the migrants expected to arrive at the us mexico border a coming from hong durham's now we understand they are fleeing poverty dire living conditions and a lack of jobs however. and explains aid that's pouring into the region it may actually be doing more harm than good. with thousands of migrants stranded on the u.s. border threats of lethal force and tear gas are amplifying an already intense scene . i. have to they're going to use lethal force i. left honduras and now stuck there the

majority of the migrants stranded at the border just want to realize their dream now donald trump is threatening to cut off aid to the country for enabling the migrant caravan to approach the u.s. border and the amount of aid the usa gives to honduras isn't particularly large the amount listed for twenty eight team is sixty five point eight million dollars now it may come as a shock but some leftists and activists in honduras actually want the united states to cut off aid the that the us government gives is invested precisely in the failed security policy and seventy members of the u.s. congress agree with them there's been a bill that's been put forward to cut off aid to honduras to end support for what they're calling a corrupt and undemocratic regime we should have kind of a two hundred or so long time ago but for very different reasons their complete disregard for worker rights indigenous rights and individual freedoms are unacceptable in an ally of the united states now the socialist president of honduras was toppled in two thousand and nine in

a military coup that took place shortly after barack obama took office now there was outrage all over the world but the united states recognized the new elections that took place under military rule these interruptions of democracy should be completely relegated to the past now it is time for the hemisphere as a whole to move forward and welcome honduras back into the enter american community since that time honduras has been caught in a downward spiral of drugs crime poverty and political strife now this all peaked in two thousand and seventeen when juan orlando hernandez was elected president there were protests and the government responded with force. that widespread allegations of voter fraud prompted conflicting responses from the united states with the u.s. capitol giving mixed messages. to presidential election which was. by

irregularities and a lack of transparency a new election must take place the widespread irregularities raise further doubts about the legitimacy of the hung jury and elections we join calls for a new election one that must be free fair and transparent we congratulate president hu on the london on this on his victory in the november twenty sixth presidential elections there was the serious very questionable all the action results which the united states supported and so we've seen their land as government which is totally corrupt cracking down repressing the people under the united states has not been on the side of the hunter and people has an up or down the side of positive progressive reform united states has been dead west they were oppressors regime the migrants on the border of flings some horrific realities at home and whether or not washington to shoulder some of the blame for those problems are now at their doorstep cable flop and r.t. new york and plenty more if you have monday worldwide headlines still to come here

on the program on t.v. we are back in just. what holds his hands to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to present.

this is. really. interesting. you. could if you do join us there's a momentum among us democrats and their efforts to probe. ties to russia during the twenty sixteen presidential elections the softer his former lawyer pleaded guilty to lying to congress about a construction project in moscow that was finally shelved michael cohen says he pursued the project on behalf in the middle of the twenty sixteen campaign. any

involvement saying he was far too busy electioneering the russian president's spokesperson and the kremlin was approached but responded by saying the kremlin didn't deal with the construction work on intelligence committee chairman richard burr says that cohen's case shows you can't get away with lying to congress. looks at how others who have lied under oath far less media attention. lying is bad lying to congress is even worse lying to congress for the sake of trump well that's just unforgivable this is one more example. president's closest allies lying about their ties to russia and russians if you lie to us we're going to get you and what the prosecutor period in the senate cohen has lied to congress and that man a foreign force like lawyers i mean literally or says these are bad guy the real question is what will this president do michael cohen

admitted he lied out of loyalty to trump about the exact length of business talks on trump's construction project in moscow some sources allegedly say he also lied about supposed payments to former model stormy daniels all because he hoped for a presidential pardon so michael cohen says he lied because he thought trump would forgive him but the best excuse let's be honest there what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive but that aside let's face the facts he was hardly the first the only or probably the last of the past year there hasn't been a single collateral death because of the exceptional proficiency precision of the capability with an able to develop that was former cia chief john brennan the country's top counter-terror divisor at the time convincing an audience that u.s. drone strikes caused local actual damage when reports of civilian deaths were being received both by the president and intelligence services as far as the allegations

of you know cia hacking into you know senate computers nothing could be further from the truth and we wouldn't do that that was his side of the story on the senate spy scandal when the cia was accused of monitoring computers used by committee stuff that didn't turn out so well later forcing an apology from mr brennan and here is former n.s.a. head james clapper accounting to a senate select committee on n.s.a. so. buying programs does the n.s.a. collect any type of gate of a millions or hundreds of millions of americans. no sir and yet he faced no charges for a statement he himself admitted was rony us and even the man now in charge of the russia collusion probe former f.b.i. chief bob mueller didn't lie but at the very least supported and pushed the false narrative which led to the invasion of iraq and subsequent chaos secretary powell presented evidence last week that baghdad has failed to disarm its weapons of mass

destruction so what can we learn lying is bad and everyone knows it but we'll let dr house summarize truth of the human condition. but everybody lies. only parents about what the press did not think that the lies told by democratic administration members to a republican congress was a bad thing but they do think that lies by people who work for mr trump years ago. could be a very exciting thing because it could harm mr trump mr cohen will tell whatever lie he has to tell to make sure he comes out ok and if he thinks the lies going to get him a pardon will tell that lie if he thinks a lie i'll get a deal from the special prosecutors will tell that wise guy is worthless as a witness and is worthless as someone who can build a case around or stop moeller from trying but he's built his house on sand.

americans might be forgiven for thinking that as long as they keep their firearms legally and in a safe place they won't get into trouble especially given the second amendment which guarantees their right to own guns but that was not the case for one student who was asked to move out of a shared flat by her landlord and roommates. it's clear that the rest of the housemates are extremely uncomfortable with the idea of firearms being kept in the household since it's clear that layla wants to keep our firearms it would be best for all parties if she finds another place to live layla perny is a twenty four year old harvard student now the spot erupted after her roommates complained to the landlord they didn't feel comfortable with guns on the property as after they went through her things and found the weapons along with a make america great again cap. punny says she explained to her flatmates that she owns guns legally adding though she's lived in the apartment without any incident she thinks there's another reason though that she was kicked out. when i asked them

why they were in my room to begin with they each came up with completely contradicting stories none of which made any sense but one comment struck me in particular was saw that you had to make america great again had and come on you from alabama so we just kind of assumed that you had something it is not the first time that owners of a make america great again cap have faced problems. you go. through that is very good against you and particularly that in my view they're going to gather everybody to go to another classroom and you can remain here. or you can think your head off or you know talk to them if you know what do you want to. do support. your decision do you like your friend i'm with you like you got it to work. by far or the right you decide to. serve that's

a terrible question i'm simply a donkey crank supporter who also happens to want you quality from what i've read they he is roommates virtually admit that they became nervous when they saw the maid at that make america great again hat which of course indicates that she's a supporter of donald trump so they just based on that said well she must have something she must be a nut she must be a right winger she must have guns let's go look thank god they didn't beat this girl out or harm this girl physically there are all kinds of stories of people wearing hats from look young adults or teenagers sitting in mcdonalds the people driving in their car with their truck bumper sticker on it being attack to people wearing a hat or shirt make america great sure they get physically beat not could you imagine what would have happened. if somebody wearing obama had or we're going to bomb a t. shirt everybody. would have led the news for days. a venomous

reptile known as the palestine viper has been adopted by israel as its national snake or the moves created a bit of a toxic atmosphere with some describing it as an act of heritage theft. says. it's the palestine vice and always will be to sort it with anyone else it's bill knowledge israel has appropriates a delegate to the middle most stay silent to make more of this deal to fight this and prove that it's a palestinian fight and expose will confront the. past

. i think that. these paintings spread and. says you know there is a very big guy you between us and. the british are there so we should be dull for you if you know what most of which are. says thank you for sharing your time with us and joining us joining us for the program here on oxy international the monday world headlines continue very soon.

when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murderer i would prefer it be on the death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people was terrifying is just no really hasn't been that we want even many of the dems families want the death penalty to be abolished the reason we have to keep the death penalty here is because that's what murder victims' families want that's going to give them peace that's going to give them justice and we come in and say. not quite enough we've been through this this isn't the way.
