reform the liberal international order washington. for the world questioning the relevance of key international organizations and also threatening to scrub a major nuclear missile treaty with russia over alleged noncompliance is a charge strongly reject. here now since a rock proclaims that the feet of ice still in the country but the humanitarian crisis nonetheless remains among the most volatile in the world according to the norwegian refugee council. by their welcome so we clear in our to look back at the stories that made the headlines over the past seven days live from. with you in moscow tonight is kevin first then armored vehicles move through the streets of paris saturday the first time in more than a decade as yet more violence gripped the french capital in the latest round of

protests by the yellow vest movement there more than seventeen hundred arrests eventually as thousands of riot police used tear gas to try and contain the crowds the spot their efforts demonstrators wreaked havoc in a fourth consecutive weekend of unrest. what we've got is local protests over a fuel tax hike snowballed into a nationwide uprising against a minimum across government but it's not only people i visit yellowjackets me showing the frustration paramedics in france and high school student across the

country been holding rallies to ben's he's been following what's been going on in front of us. as you can see there is sounding there so i ring say it's just on the plus still a cold cold as you go towards the national assembly the thing that they're unhappy about is a change in france it was implemented two months ago whereby hospitals now you decide to reach ambulance service in france will collect patients on the drive this is a concern that that could threaten their jobs in the future we will always be here even if it means losing our company or losing everything else will be here until the end of. last night the elisei government and hence it will be canceling that increase in the field 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 the president may have hoped the u.

turn on fuel tax hikes would have quelled the anger but it hasn't made any seems to have intensified it with truckers foam is our new students now taking their concerns to the streets. once you close it down that i consider my home to be a president again some clothes trying to deconstruct the welfare state was all clearly implementing policies that are written up as the president of the rich. we want to president of a lawsuit a president who prioritizes the common interest as well. thousands of people have once again come out to protest and there are many demands that they will the government to meet i believe last week there are about five thousand six hundred police officers here this weekend eight thousand in paris alone they go

more tear gas they're being deployed at those protesters are trying to clear the much of that street where they were causing damage around us just took a look at this this cheer gas going everywhere we've also heard reports that christmas trees are being burned across paris we are of course in the last few weeks leading up to that festive season and here we've also had rubber bullets being deployed. very close to us. she is streaming down my face again as a result of tear gas i can't tell you how many times that we've been gassed in previous protests the police have generally try to hold back from deploying tear gas and even when they fired objects pelted at them by the protesters they've held back until they feel it's too much today when one of the chief thing to confront

them they have been responding immediately and it's not just tear gas it's whether bullets it's cannons and of course we have armored vehicles on the streets of paris the first time since two thousand and five this is a rubber bullet it's going to put it in my hands so perhaps my cameraman alex can get a nice close up look at it for you it's pretty big a little bit spongy at the top the point is the quite large the idea it's not meant to have see go through you like a normal bullet but if this hits you believe me this is going to hurt and it's pretty scary having these things flying all around you. it. was we were french champagnes islam what they're calling the acceptable and humiliating police treatment of student protesters on thursday is after video emerged to detain students in a paris suburb in lined up and forced on their names funded education list has

condemned the actions to be following the most violent riots in paris in decades money. finally the public pressure early in the week an abandoned the fuel tax reforms that ignited the unrest in the first place but all that said the protesters are already gone just beyond those fiscal policy demands political analyst eric virg told me most french people aren't certain how the present mccrone is actually capable of solving the crisis we have to find political solution and it's to political affairs this which begins today and i'm not sure that emmanuel mccall is a good idea of what to do and i'm not sure that you would be a good man to write many do write plays because a lot of people in france consider that he's not able to lead the country. jurist of all the people in france in the interest of all citizens and to consider that he is the man of minority of the reaches which is

a assemble in france of this breakdown was jurist of the people. more of the news of the week russia raised the alarm over u.s. threats to pull out of a key nuclear treaty that don't choose to do this it may trigger washington's further withdrawal from other significant international accords to the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty was signed in the final years of the cold war production of short and medium range nuclear missiles are prohibited under the pact but the u.s. no claims russia is producing weapons in violation of that agreement adding russia has sixty days to comply or else washington will start pulling out of the deal was co says it's in compliance with the treaty and quote the us knows it meantime washington this week laid out to its vision of the world that its mission to reestablish the world's liberal order also question the relevance of many other international agreements and organizations as our senior correspondent word goes

the of points out. it is time for change time 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 is this today doesn't 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 the only hinder america a tie its hands and cripple its power the logic is sound when we all be better off if we just had america rule american tends to lead 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 foster 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. turning 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. for us to please the pulling out of the i.n.f. treaty would also undermine u.s. relations with europe to. i think it's quite likely the u.s. will pull out of this treaty i think the at the end of the story that just finished and my fear were guarding the europeans and how it will affect our relationship with them is they simply do not have the courage or the the strength of character to say to the americans no this is bad for us this is bad for europe this in danger is our security we won't go along with this whatever trumps impulses might be to

either have an agreement with the russians and as well as with the chinese to have a better relationship that he has a national security team that is in kampala entirely composed of the wrong people and what they want to do is to put russia into an untenable security positions and this is simply one more rock they can throw at moscow and they don't really care with the consequences are that is what my fear is here. it's been one year since right claimed victory over islamic state the defeat of the terrorist group came a few months after iraqi forces skewed control over the major have it major urban areas taking the country's second largest city of mosul the humanitarian situation though all that said remains di as pointed out by the norwegian refugee council in its latest report it says almost two million people are still displaced across the country with eight million more in need of humanitarian aid they also state thousands of children born under islamic state rule still unrecognized by the

government we spoke earlier to a member of that a group. iraqi security forces are still active in some parts of europe there are still operate i'm going to get rid of what is left of islamic state groups one hundred ten million are still displaced across the country one year on five hundred thousands are in panic the iraqi government face tremendous challenges and big country has been through this war for three years. what we need to focus on today is to ensure that millions of displaced iraqis are able to go home the need to to rebuild schools they need to rebuild be told i am. some parts of iraq are slowly recovering. like most all even if it's still heavily destroyed but other parts like sanjoy for example are still destroyed to up to seventy percent.

of the services. this is why more than two hundred thousand yen cds are still displaced across the country and are simply unable to reach or the budget for the country or for twenty one thousand is currently being discussed and the only landing to allocate only one percent of the budget to the river to most school which is the city where the where the needs are the biggest and this governor it counts to ten percent of the population of the country so it's far from being an of it is indeed an exceptional. to thing that millions can respond and you can respond on bombs. but not on humanitarian and and reconstruction i am. it is essential that internationally the international community community invests as much in the country in the reconstruction and stabilization of the country as they did in the fight against islamic states. their work is far from

being done and as of today when i discuss with iraqis in in the terms they really tell me that if you opened and. since then the islamic state. then these are still there only for twenty eighteen eight million iraqis were in need of a few major nasa stands so this is not time to abandon iraq. so what's going on since a u.s. led coalition invaded iraq back in two thousand and three setting off what was become a chain of events that eventually led to the rise of isolate the country is a timeline of how all that unfolded.

the night i am announcing that the american combat mission in iraq has ended and the iraqi people now have lead responsibility for the security of their country. it will take time to read a case of cancer like i said we will conduct a systematic campaign of airstrikes against these terrorists. working with the iraqi government. deliberately.

coming up the rest of the top chinese telecom executives threatening to dereference to patch things up with the us old tried to go but and so much more when we come back after the break here. populism is such a point spread political allegation that it's lost almost all meaning if any

the chinese foreign ministry someone the american ambassador following the rest of the chief financial officer of the world's biggest telecoms make a well way man one jew was arrested in vancouver last weekend at washington's request now if extradited to the u.s. he could face a lengthy prison currently she's in jail for the weekend and next hearing monday tomorrow. the week began with a worldwide sigh of relief at a potential cease fire in the us china trade war but it wasn't long until washington and its canadian allies crashed the party this arrest can be used as a leverage in negotiations on trade with china it asserts that between two thousand and nine and two thousand and fourteen huawei used to shell company called sky com to break u.s. sanction laws around exports to iran this is a message from the united states a warning shot action typically reserved for drug lords and arms dealers not

corporate executives men one jews the c.f.o. and daughter of the c.e.o. at wal way one of the world's largest consumer electronics companies so why target her while the company has been on the u.s. is hit list since twenty twelve mostly for allegedly stealing american technology and this time canada says one jew is being extradited to face charges of fraud in trying to swerve around u.s. sanctions on iran but the company claims it follows all the rules and the chinese foreign ministry had fighting words for the west calling the move extremely disgusting unreasonable and a serious violation of one jew's legal rights they demanded her immediate release china's strong candidate to immediately release the detained person and earnestly protect their lawful legitimate rights otherwise kind of domestic sets full responsibility for the serious consequences caused but the canadian prime minister

wants everyone to be clear this was done by the book no pressure nada but i think you assure everyone that we are a country of an independent judiciary and the appropriate authorities to the decisions in this case without any political involvement were interference as must be the case and while the arrest was being carried out the u.s. and chinese leaders were tucking into a couple. argentinian stakes at the g. twenty in point to cyrus their dinner diplomacy was supposed to fix their months long trade war but trump's national security adviser john bolton later admitted he had advance warning of the arrest i knew in advance this is something that we get from the justice department in these kinds of things happen with some frequency we certainly don't inform the president on every one of the there is the crazy up and down of the tensions with china one day we're on the verge of

a breakthrough the next day with threatening one another again the next day we're friends the next day we arrested the executive in canada and the biggest problem about all of that is the uncertainty of this kind of crazy uncertainty may be good politics for him but it's crying girls up the economic life part of the united states let's be clear what's being done year if the united states wants the rest of the world to behave according to what we want we are inviting every other country 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. the story brought you in the week a guidebook for kindergartens and germany's about to tackle far right sentiment and

it's provoked the wrath of parents because of it they claim that encourages children fight to spy on them you know all of our europe correspondent takes up the story what the fuss is. it's the season of goodwill to all of. the host of here right there a thought for those on through in the phones in checking emails it was until racism in t.o.s. 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 right ideology what to do if a child draws swastikas in class and says they do this at home what to do if it's 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 the 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 denied the allegations saying it didn't mean to cast a shadow on how kids interest and also 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 leaving the organization behind this brochure and the 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 piece for all of our off the bill in twenty five minutes past nine here in moscow this sunday evening the weekend's going all right thanks very much for watching take me to watch this bulletin that's the way some of the news panned out so far this last week as reported by us here and out internationally in moscow for now is kevin i would say thanks again have a great rest of the weekend always so much more from us at odd t.
