6:08 am
put forward against them so if you have a good candidate that's fine but america resign and see what happens is that their great option for a corn once penda book entitled to revolution in it he wrote about the quest to reinvent the french nation his unpopular policies may just be doing that as the yellow vests movement continues to gain traction problem is this was the revolution the president foresaw nor wanted charlotte even ski r.t. paris. john rockland a professor of political science at the kathy university monday says that the protest movement could spell the end of emanuel micron's presidency. it's certainly the end of the dream that he liked to cultivate he made people dream or think made people think and dream that change could take place without difficulty and

that because he was new and a new person and a new party that everything would suddenly get better emmanuelle michael like his two predecessors has absolutely no new i'd. yes he remains where did the policies that have failed well for many decades in france high tax high spending. european policy relaxed policy on immigration all the costs of these things add up and spending is out of control and so taxes keep going up higher and higher and people have had enough. signs his lawyer has rejected a deal struck by the u.k. in ecuador which ecuador's president claims will enable the wiki leaks co-founder to leave his country's embassy in london and marino says that britain has given assurances it will not extradite decide to any country where he might face the death penalty with more details his. the ecuadorian president has done
6:10 am
a radio interview in which he's been very frank about julian assange and he said that the british government has guaranteed in writing that if you're in the sun just to leave the ecuadorian embassy in london well then the u.k. won't extradite him to a third country where he could face the death penalty so as a headline this sounds like surely good news for julian assange but it's important to remember that the ecuadorian president isn't exactly julia songes biggest fan lenin moran no has referred to as a hacker in the past in the interview he said that he's fed up with the wiki leaks editor staying in his country's tiny london embassy i do not like the presence of mr sunshine in the dorian embassy we have been respectful of his human rights with that in mind we think that six years is too long for someone to remain it's almost incarcerated and embassy or how good the treatment is that they're receiving
6:11 am
hosting him costs one million dollars a year the big concern that a songes lawyers have had throughout the six years he spent in the ecuadorian embassy is this prospect of a criminal case against julian assange over in the us in fact last month it was revealed accidentally that the u.s. justice department had filed secret criminal charges against the wiki leaks said it's and prosecutors have refused to reveal what specifically those criminal charges are so however much the ecuadorian president might want julian assange to walk out now that he says he's got these guarantees it's simply not that easy on the one hand yes whatever case there was against it in sweden has collapsed and it's expired but technically a son just still wanted by british authorities for skipping bail here in the u.k. and with prosecutors in the u.s.
6:12 am
on able to even say what the criminal charges against julian a songe are i don't think this is a very yet. polly boyko there we're doing the sanchez been voicing concerns that he could face the death penalty in the u.s. for leaking thousands of classified documents these include information on civilian deaths in afghanistan and also the cia's spying tools he's now also the focus of an investigation into alleged russian meddling in the u.s. presidential election in twenty sixteen human rights activist peter tatchell believes that even if the songes life is not in danger he could still face up to fifty years in prison in the united states certainly true that the british government would not extradite during a silence to a third country where he could face the death penalty. and you know maybe the u.s. government might at some point give assurances that he won't face the death penalty but so far the u.s.
6:13 am
government has not given those assurances and even if they did that would not preclude him facing charges which could land him in prison for thirty to fifty years that is of most would be a most unjust punishment for person organization that he is part of who simply published published information which also have been in the public demoing from the get go. the u.s. president donald trump has tweeted his agreement with remarks made by china expressing optimism that a trade deal between beijing and washington is achievable in ninety days. without georgia in the next ninety days chime in the united states will carry out because she shows on important issues relating to each state's concerns and make an effort to reach a consensus with the ultimate goal of removing all the increased tariffs this will be done in accordance with the principles of mutual respect equality and mutual benefit. well these positive remarks do come in with the arrest of the chief

6:15 am
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 detention the person's immediate release detention without providing any explanation violates the human rights of the detainee. rewind 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 want 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. here. tell us what give us some details well it hasn't been signed and

6:17 am
to put sanctions on whoever they don't like and then we can all be able to trade with anybody for fear that some government somewhere is going to punish us arrest or executives this is a kind of nationalism gone crazy and that is worrying both american investors and the rest of the world. government and the whole of the u.k. gearing up for one of the most crucial votes in the country's modern history and with parliament you to vote on whether to accept the draft breaks that deal on december eleventh there is confusion panic and also anticipation on the streets parties on the situation or takes a look. briggs said for people's vote to a nation's headache it's a ticking time bomb with just days to go before it goes off which could potentially set in the u.k. into more chaos and uncertainty december eleventh will be make or break day for the british prime minister apparent it's guessing game about what outcomes are likely

a new deal bracks it a vote of no confidence against the prime minister general election a second referendum and even no progress it at all are all being mulled over while the british public grows weary of the uncertainty but this is madness crews are still. drinking right know that the men in my group going to wait should be getting very messy sons i was due to be and still you know so you get the people that i'm sick to death to hearing about it i've seen fed up now you change the subject yes please give us a break i think you've been covered a bit too much this is nothing that should be done as a single specifically told to every single day move outside brixton or to put. up a. so if they could anybody figure that if i'm not sick of it very interesting how is it going to go in disaster to make it very clear. and to be very confusing you know it's probably going on too just as i don't know how to do it and i think everything is. a little bit uncertainty i don't think it's affecting anyone yet who
6:20 am
does it feel real good to go on forever in the parable because we have been told to go back to square one probably was people who should have got our straight or were you sort of from the birth of her. meanwhile words like chaos panic and meltdown all too common in newspaper headlines these days have been adding fuel to the fire as the u.k. reads tea leaves and bites its nails and party but it. still had fever pakistan says it will help the u.s. in its bid to bring the taliban to the negotiating table after a fresh request was made by washington story more details just awful.

6:22 am
again pakistan has finally agreed to u.s. requests for assistance in bringing the taliban to peace talks in afghanistan the war that is seventeen years old. we want the u.s. to leave afghanistan as a friend of the region not as afraid. well that statement came right after american special representative for afghanistan wrapped up his visit to pakistan and follows a difficult period in relations between islamabad and washington for example in september the u.s. announced it was stopping millions in financial aid to pakistan with donald trump saying that america had received nothing but lies and deceit for its money. we can no longer be silent about pakistan's safe havens for terrorists organizations will
6:23 am
do anything for us to do a good damn thing for us no longer paying one point three billion to pakistan we're paying them not because that's what they've done to help us nothing we discuss u.s. policy in the middle east and ties with pakistan too we should in bizzare pakistan's federal minister for human rights. president trump was talking absolute nonsense a very mrs thaw and for the first over bikes the new prime minister studies the ground and told him off for a basically accusing pakistan of all sorts of things they have come back to pakistan. who normally makes a lot of video strong statements has come like a little bit is sheepishly. very quiet and asked then trump wrote a letter asking for bike fund help in bringing about a dialogue with the taliban and helping in resolving the problems and of the
6:24 am
understand and now xylem italy that came with the same message the next. the problem with the americans is that the policy has been exposed to being wrong their policy has failed the military approach has absolutely failed. there is more chaos there more there is more terrorism there are more deaths now in afghanistan than ever before despite the heavy need to in us military prisons so the americans have realized what we had realized a long time ago that at the end of the day you have to come to the dialogue table to bring about peace. the americans have to talk to pakistan. the fact that you can all do more water month rather that they did does not work anymore has changed that we had that the approach by just about everything that she
6:25 am
did was necessitated by the new government that this government took power because our government is not going to dig dictation from the us. now opec is keeping the countries in suspense at the moment because the world's biggest oil producing nations have agreed to cut production although not yet by how much the decision is aimed at stabilizing falling oil prices and it was agreed on thursday at a meeting of the group along with russia meanwhile a man's energy minister confirmed that the size of the cut will be decided on friday. do you get it do you recommend a part of the produce but we don't need to have an explosive in their numbers in the two years that they are there the work you brought them on really do you recommend you to be likely to recover because we all do you know you all should be able to do all that is recorded and to moral enough to toward the top of the sea if you will discuss the income of the refinery. while the much anticipated opec
6:26 am
meeting comes following a thirty percent fall in oil prices in the past three months one of the worst since the two thousand and eight financial crisis there's been out of interest to you after cats are announced it was quitting the organization becoming the first gulf country to leave the bloc just head of research at london capital group gave us his thoughts on opec's planned cut in or production. i think politics does play a part in the movements in the oil price and the decision that opec's taking here used to be the opec were the marginal produces so in essence opec completely controlled or supply these days that russia and the us do as well russia's partner . partnering with opec the u.s. isn't so we have various marginal producers and i think that's why there's a lot of volatility in the market. another political factor i think is a bit involved here is that saudi arabia who are one of the leading opec member
6:27 am
countries are trying to walk a tight rope here they're trying on the one hand to cut production to increase the oil price which is good for their national economy but then the other hand they're trying to appease u.s. president donald trump and he has a different motivation he would like all prices to stay low i think that's why we're seeing all prices jump up and down so much because they have all these competing players globally for who has market share in and who is able to profit most from various price levels. now in other news protests took place across greece on thursday to mark ten years since the fatal police shooting of a teenage boy in athens a number of them turned violent. get nothing in this protest is set up barricades in the streets and started fires while in first along a key they held fire bombs and stones at police he responded with tear gas at least
