from the kids. get does upset mean people should be inclusive we shouldn't even give this straight as if this is probably just about what it is any. closer good evening it's just gone six pm here in moscow you're watching international now just hours after the french government announced a total climbdown over the fuel tax increase after weeks of protests that have been fresh demonstrations in paris this time students took to the streets angered at an increase in ci wish and faced with more details on this is shot to pinsky well sir you do serve come out to a protest in the center of paris saying that they're unhappy with is that the prices of the registration fees for foreign students in comparison to local students and they're hoping that he's not that you turned it was announced by the

government last night in france over those rises in the field tax they will be also able to get to their demands and they will also be met basically protest groups now seeing that they can see no blood's and they saying that structural risk government could possibly give in to some of their demands however the yellow vests so they healthy with what they've been offered so far it seems many all know what we've been speaking to some of the other that's been telling us that it's too little shoe late by the muslim governments so. it's a step backwards it shows mccraw and listens to the public only when things like this happen people are angry and the women from the east the country consults them even policemen are protesting they're also fed up no one listens to them no one gives them us what you need to see there is no way back she country needs a new political strategy. while another protest this plan. so this saturday by this

really shows who are not content that the government has really hurt their claims and their problems they are the government is only saying that it is concerned it could be as violent as the previous saturday when the damage totals a. million numerous there were more than one hundred people injured during those protests in france and also move the four hundred people arrested as a result of russia seeing what appears to be a fishing within the french government said last night the elisei government and now see the cancelling that increase in the fuel tax just as i was off to the french prime minister had gone to the national assembly to say that it would be suspended for six months there's no suggestion we're hearing from some of the parties from the left two fronts that they would like to place a group of new confidence in the government that's taken this now to aleksey it could be yet who's from the party force also meets on

a four digit is on that it will close the force of the yellow vests was demonstrated by the government took a small step back but this is a maneuver who needs to be understood they postponed the decision to raise or not raise taxes for the period after the elections the european parliament however the universe clearly expressed their position they do not want a fuel price hike and they are right and then the problem of the high cost of living itself will not be solved people have an empty fridge now not after six months to know that bubbles was relays you don't say they will continue their movement the protests on saturday is still did it take place some suggestion that these protests could go on until the end of the year and we also know that there is no i disapprove of these protests now with one police you name saying that it will go on strike on saturday to you it seems like the unrest here in france is far from the show that you can ski and see. we discussed the issue with. political analyst

nicole america she thinks that protesters will continue to come out in force. very definitely and it can be don't know what to do at the size of these protests which are going across france what it whether it be in europe or even on the other french is humongous and they haven't seen it coming they should have seen it because we have had a lot of single showing that this was coming out they didn't see it and now they're panicking and they don't know what to do best that's a legacy in france you have to get violent if you want things change so that's this is also of course getting a positive message out people think that bringing out more violence is going to change even more so yes there will be more violence and also i do think that as the government is extremely clumsy they're trying to build on this violence to show that it is a violent movement and that's not working we've seen these days mainstream media showing only videos pictures of the violence and unrest in major french cities when ninety percent of these demonstrations across france are nonviolent. so the

news tonight the chief financial officer and daughter of the founder of the chinese based smartphone giant huawei has been arrested by canadian authorities she's now facing extradition to the u.s. over alleged violation of sanctions on iran the move threatens to reignite a trade war between washington and beijing which had shown signs of easing with more now his. well there was a sigh of relief when the us president and his chinese counterpart agreed to a temporary truce to their trade spots last weekend's but one december the first may have been denied diplomacy in argentina at the same time the u.s. was making moves which would take relations to new lows it involves one of china's leading telecoms firms weiwei the jewel in china's enviable tech industry and this is the c.f.o. of that company mung one joe who also happens to be the daughter of its founder she was taken into custody by canadian authorities on the very same day that she jinping and donald trump were giving the impression the better times were on the

cards for their bilateral relations well among now faces extradition to the u.s. and while u.s. authorities have not revealed the motives behind the arrest there are reports that the company is suspected of potential violations of u.s. sanctions against iran the response from beijing has been stern. demanded explanation for the person's immediate release tension without providing any explanation violates the human rights of the detainee. rewinds to less than a week ago trumpet claims that a trade deal was in the works and the relations had taken a big leap forward but that was followed by a tweet insisting that if an agreement wasn't reached it's important to remember he's a tariff man it's a roller coaster not just for emotions but for the markets too even the white house is top economic advisor can't help but exacerbate all the uncertainty. i think it's coming. already gave us what give us some details well it hasn't been signed and

sealed and delivered adding to all the confusion is the proposal of this ninety day truce that period there's supposed to be used to ramp up dialogue an attempt to mend the rift between the two sides well so far china has kept fairly quiet about the talks but to many actions speaking louder than words. we believe this is a clear signal that the drug war is escalating to a new level public opinion in china will likely become more negative in respect to the trade war and potentially against u.s. companies the government may find it difficult to tell the public that they have offered significant concessions to the u.s. when we spoke to roberto d'ambrosio he's the chief executive of the stock market analysis party research he remains unconvinced though that the g twenty summit will resolve disagreements between the u.s. and china. but it came out of the g. twenty it was not enough to justify any kind of optimism because it was

just it was appalling but spawning some tariffs on the basis that a possible deal could be worked out trade wars there are being pressure on this very aggressive policy by the u.s. on iran and other countries this this situation just exacerbates the. the environment which is not positive at all trade wars are. on what is the relationship of global growth which is global demand and global demand is directly linked to the way goods are exchanged and the system that is used to choose those goods such really multiply the effect of the problems that we have about the dollar system so the trade wars are in particular. washington's threat to pull out of a key nuclear treaty with moscow has deepened the rift between the two sides with

the us accusing russia of noncompliance but the american administration is also going further because it's questioning the relevance of other international agreements and organizations it's not against the expects it is time for change. for the old ways to die for a new undisputed leader a new american world order our mission is to reassert our sovereignty reform the liberal international order the central question that we face is that is the question of whether the system as currently configured as it exists today and as the world exists today does it work does it work for all the people of the world the old ways are out of date united nations is useless incompetent the i.m.f. is obsolete european union pointless all these. international organizations unions treaties and agreements they only hinder america tire its hands and

cripple its power the logic is sound wouldn't we all be better off if we just let america rule america intends to leave now and always the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty russia is violating it says america others are bound by it it holds limits limits the united states and washington's policy requires it seems more nukes big nukes faster nukes one country in the world is bound by the i.n.f. treaty us china is not bound by iran has an extensive b.m. capability that but we have global responsibilities in asia and the middle east we have to be responsive to their terms international democracy has failed alliances have failed asians cannot tell right from wrong everyone wants

a say but why let them they no longer know what's good for them america is good for them this is what president trump is doing he is returning the united states to its traditional central leadership role in the world and so it seems we enter a new age in the age where might makes right without all the fluff and lip service to partnerships and equality the old world order is dead welcome to a new american age the i.n.f. treaty was signed in the final years of the cold war production of short medium range nuclear missiles are prohibited under the pact but the u.s. now claims that russia is producing missiles in violation of the cream and moscow in turn says that washington is threatening its security with bases in missiles located in eastern europe former u.k. army officer gave us his opinion on the situation. you've got this situation here

where nato seems to be advocating one position on the part in support of the u.s. at the moment but many of its member states have not just privately but publicly raised their concern that this is part of the arms control mechanism breaking down and that this will of course held in a new arms race of course the united states isn't just looking at europe it's looking elsewhere in the world and that i suspect is the key to what the american decision making here is as indeed the russian government has indicated that they're looking more at countries such as china iran possibly that are developing such systems that already have systems in place that would be bad for america and russia to have because of the limitations on the range. property developer in the case provoked something of a storm over a brochure for one of its new projects because images of the planned housing development in london had a neighboring mosque airbrushed out and say chalk it up as more. we are in hornsey

north london mostly residential area about forty five minutes away from central london why not consider moving to a nice newly built high rise here. take note though if you look this one up on line it would miss a building right next to it this mosque which is obviously right here in reality the property developer has been accused of a slum a full after probably airbrushing the mosque out of its marketing photos the dome and the minarets are gone instead replaced with a row of trees in the building is nowhere to be seen what do locals make of all this let's find out there's no mosque in the pictures in the marketing photos so people have been complaining about it a little bit what do you make of it you can't miss the mosque if it's not in the picture it's been left out of the previous and it will be difficult to put it in i think they got there. first it's obvious that it's

a huge who doesn't know not to take so i know how things work and people who see it in the way i mean them people. don't need to be visual like. you know would you be offended and i wouldn't be offended. by you matching if you were a user of the local mosque you'd not be offended yeah it does upset mean people should be inclusive we shouldn't even give the site as it is so that people really nowhere did belong and what they are giving in part so why would you to move a mosque got a temple or a church what does that mean if you're trying to sell something you want to make it look. so not everyone is going to like a mosque while if you were shopping for an apartment mosque scare you or me personally know various people there were well some were offended by the doctored images others thought it wasn't a big deal the mosque spokesperson said the apparent photo shop is nothing to worry

about when we first saw the photo. the mosque had been hidden bequeath he realized it was a marketing tool the developer of the building has reportedly said the images used are computer generated to create a visual representation of how the development will look to us they said they won't comment so whether it was a deliberate move or just an innocent marketing tool could be anyone's guess reporting from london and as they say with r.t. . now sweden is hosting peace talks on the yemeni crisis today we'll have a look at that plus of the stories to tell you just after this break. you know world of big. law and conspiracy. to dig deeper to get the stories that midstream refuses to tell more than we need

to be smart we need to stop slamming the door. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. as the protesters are rather saying their purchasing power has diminished because all this money printing that's going on and you mention they can't tell a fact that money printing in rich people on average in paris. in paris and those people who are working doing blue collar jobs their personal power is eroded and so they accordion pamela anderson figured out that this is a structurally violent system that they need to address with a quid pro quo violence or violence.

welcome peace talks on the yemeni crisis are taking place in sweden today and the meeting aims to end nearly four years of full we spoke to the president of the international committee of the red cross about this and he says that both humanitarian and political measures should be taken to resolve the situation. at the present moment and with talks in sweden we do hope that we manage and the international community manages to draw a pathway to or more peaceful revolution in yemen what is certainly true is that humanitarians by their own cannot fix the situation in which yemenis to be disease one of the most dire humanitarian situation we have seen people have been dying not only from the direct attacks and the direct impact of war but in particular also from the destruction of infrastructure from the destruction of

hospitals of water systems i think this is indeed a very dire situation which can only be fixed if a political solution is found and there is a slight. a light at the end of the tunnel maybe with peace talks going on in sweden. but yemen isn't the only country in the region suffering a humanitarian catastrophe at the moment because in syria over thirteen million people are in need with six million internally displaced in afghanistan the u.n. says that over six million people are in need there a third of them children the red cross president again says the organization is doing what it can in both countries. priorities in syria definitely. have access to as many people displaced within syria tools support. as ever we can to deliver a basic human need here in assistance in terms of water health services and

services. many within syria are still displaced and we tried to contribute to destabilize ation. one of our largest operation worldwide where we are active in the whole of the country in all the provinces we have more than eleven outfits in afghanistan we are responding to people displaced we are responding to populations in need in all parts of the star we have been worried over the last couple of years to see how much the civilian population but not only the civilian population also militaries are exposed to enormous amounts of casualties we see people. really heavily affected and the i.c.r.c. has one of the most multifaceted humanitarian the response program in

afghanistan which we try to continue in the future. a guidebook for kindergartens in germany about how to tackle right wing sentiments provoke the wrath of parents they claim it only encourages their children to spy on them peter oliver has more the story it's the season of goodwill to all and. to his. thoughts on through the phones and checking emails. until racism. received around four hundred fifty hate calls in the first forty eight hours threatening things like terrorist attacks we haven't counted the exact number of emails but it was around. five hundred so what is this all about the organization with the blessing from the german government has produced a brochure for kindergarten teachers and parents designed to tackle far right ideology what to do if a child draws swastikas in class and says they do this at home what to do if its

teacher is active on the far right see these are the types of situations and suggestions on how to deal with them addressed in the sixteen page guide why all the hate against it some of the information has rankled to say the least with far right blogs as well as mainstream conservatives a scenario as described where a kindergarten how to deal with children of parents involved with far right to go away is dresses in braids and the boy faces physical challenges and takes part in drills so what advice do you think was given to kindergarten stuff have a face to face with the parents it should be made clear to what extent all thora tarion in gender stereotypes are renting styles limit the many possibilities of children and complicate their development some were rattled by the advice quiting the wearing of dresses and braids with membership of the far right i find it unbelievable that a taxpayer funded brochure identifies girls wearing braids and clothes as

potentially nationalist the family minister should have his booklet recalled and revised as soon as possible the anti immigration alternative for germany party seized on the backlash accusing me and geo of promoting secret police methods the ngo denying the allegations saying it didn't mean to cast a shadow on how kids and dressed and also added that the brochure was well received by professionals this is based on true cases transform long term counseling work which teachers have asked for help dealing with nationalist families on doubted leave the organization behind this brochure and the german family ministry the best of intentions here however in a country where most people still. remember the g.d.r. asking teachers to look out for certain political motivations could prove problematic peter all over of the building. now the passing of america's forty first president george bush sr has led to an outpouring of honors and respect being

paid although. looks at whether the assessment of his time in office may have been tempered somewhat by the current political climate. so the sun has set on george herbert walker bush the forty first president of the united states there has been understandably an outpouring of grief from his friends and family and many voices in the media pursued a life of extraordinary service to america such a man so thoroughly decent so moderate in his beliefs model of what a public servant should be however it seems that the media is glossing over certain aspects of bush's legacy it follows a pattern similar to the death of john mccain where the media keeps praise on to an individual and highlights one particular character quality above all else opposition to donald trump publicly contentious relationship between donald trump and george h.w. bush didn't vote for him in two thousand and sixteen it can be said that he thought donald trump had quote

a certain ego and then he told you point blank he's a blowhard. he's a blowhard he was an oil tycoon and a cia chief who eventually became president his record wasn't spotless now we all know that donald trump never apologizes well after the united states shot down an iranian airliner and killed two hundred ninety civilians will remember this classic trump asked line that we heard from president bush never apologize for the united states of america ever i don't care what the facts are the media hails the first war on iraq as one of his shining moments as was the case in the one nine hundred thirty s. we see instead a moose saying an aggressive dictator threatening his neighbors that bush compared saddam hussein to at all for hitler he said that the bombs had to fall as a result of the gulf war thousands of civilians died he was also a big supporter of another war that being the war on drugs this this is crack

cocaine. seized a few days ago by drug enforcement agents in a park just across the street from the white house well it turns out that the drug enforcement agency actually lowered the dealer to the white house so that this point could be made now bush called for harsher penalties lock them up longer prison sentences thirty years later we've got the biggest prison population in the world in the united states but the drug crisis has spiraled out of control h. w. died shortly after the rise of me too and many women came forward at that time saying that he had certain proclivities he reached his hand around and sad to think through who did you know my favorite magician is and we all said no move and he said david copperfield and at that moment i found him grab my behind the former president acknowledge that some of these allegations were true but he said that the quote padding of women's rears was intended to be good natured so american mainstream media has mourn the passing of george herbert walker bush much like it

mourns the passing of other former leaders however it seems that american media has a bit of a selective memory especially if you don't like donald trump. artsy new york times from where this is just coming up to half past six here in moscow but back again at the top of. what holds and you should. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected . so when you want to express. some want to watch. it you're going. to see what before three of the people. i'm interested in. this should.

the ways of the united states. dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. are so. simple so they want to. put as many of them look for refuge in the so-called thing tree sides the drug use to share information about undocumented migrants with federal authorities. they are. most needed more no. less and they want that. they have water they all choose to stay in the country with donald trump in the. travels. both. of you up with approval of the.

geyser this is the report wow topsy-turvy interest rates and pamela anderson those more about economics than a well known economics editor stacy yes i do want to say there's been a momentous thing that's happened this week and they yield curve has inverted we're not going to go into it in this episode but it's important to note that that often signals are recession is about to count it because it came before the last two big recessions and collapses and we also did see the g twenty we're going to get to that in the next episode it's all about he said i trawled she said obviously the head of china.
