a very strong magnetic field on my car and i feel it in my head. clear it's like a real hard pressure on my skin burns and wireless access point here just continuous all day with our students in the school it's. just continually our citizens in this microwave radiation it is certainly electoral small and skilling words. that. i'm. i'm not in. the streets of brussels wall but with a large anti migrant demonstration. in yemen in the port city of kut. in the aerial bombardment days after u.n.

troops was reached it comes as a new report says the number of those killed in the conflict has been grossly underestimated. and in the stories that shaped the week take acid and violence amongst the fifth consecutive weekend of yellow vests protests the french president had called on demonstrators not to take to the streets after a terror attack in styles but. mostly . people were killed and a dozen injured in attack when i government open fire on a crowded christmas market the suspect was later killed by police.

thank you place as developments and i look back at the last seven days you're watching in the weekly here a lot international with me at. the program clashes have erupted in the capital today after more than five thousand demonstrators gathered for an anti migrant protest. was. i. i i i and sixteen the buildings police used more to come in and take ons to post and the demonstration comes in the same week and

signed up to the un my question to that document was agreed by more than one hundred sixty un member states at a summit in america on monday it aims to find a common global approach to my question the critics say it will limit the ability of countries to shape their own migration policies former deputy speaker of the belgium holland floated a values thinks the problem is far more complicated than a lot of players on the surface this is something has been going on for the us for the last two years already basically have been under what you see is people who are indeed afraid but who have been told that their loss of social security and jobs is to be blamed on migrants and not on all three how big three school companies who need get away with murder by a trade in your taxes and so on the money there so security. to me is the main reason why people then and full focus on these issues i mean do the problem is there nobody is going to deny. that the group exists but. it's not the big the

biggest problem is from the moment so what you have is. people too that they don't focus on the real issues that really affect. in yemen the port city of had a day and a few other areas have reportedly been the target of an airstrike saudi led coalition which supports yemen's government has not commented on these reports so far but they do come just days after yemen's pro-government forces reached a cease fire with hooty rebels in her data the truce was agreed during a un backed talks held in sweden the first of their kind into. under the ceasefire terms the warring sides put a halt hostilities and withdraw their forces from a date or a strategic port city that serves as the main entry point for humanitarian aid the truce was meant to take effect immediately but as clashes have continued it's reportedly been put off until tuesday the u.n.

is warning the humanitarian situation in yemen is deteriorating by the day a terrible tragedy is unfolding in yemen and it's getting worse millions of people are starving seek desperate they have one message for the world this war needs to stop. meanwhile a new report by the armed conflict location and event data project claims the number of yemenis killed since two thousand and sixteen has reached sixty thousand that figure is six times greater than the normally cited ten thousand dead and their car bernie one of the research behind the report feels the crisis in yemen has gone largely underreported despite its huge scale. from what we could see in reporting at least there has been a very kind of a generally lazy attitude in using. that ten thousand figure provided by the un the saul of fisher figure seems twenty sixteen and still many newspapers and media

outlets are still using that has or you know if figure which significantly downplay the devastation we know already there are pockets of reported in several areas and eighty. thousands of people may have also died because of malnutrition and disease is connected to to do it. today brought a renewed wave of violence to paris with tear gas arrests and clashes once again seen on the streets during the latest yellow vest protest it was the fifth consecutive weekend of demonstrations what began as a protest against fuel tax hikes and high living costs has now snowballed into a revolt against the authority of president a manual micron. the. computer good thought it was was

was. was. as the tear gas leaves this an area of the seans allee's a the famous streets in paris police are moving their way up towards the uk to triomphe clearing out anybody who they deemed to be involved in the violence that we saw a rope out of absolutely nowhere it was incredibly peaceful and then just in a few seconds it went from zero to ten immediately and we saw police deployed also counting as well as well as the rubber bullets being fired at after five weeks of the police tactics being found somewhat lacking what we have seen here is well they suffered

a at least anyway tactics that have brought every single one of those yellow vest demonstrators into one little corner here there are a number of people that are acquiring medical attention we saw one of our colleagues from auntie france who is here only say was taken away for some medical treatment was that the same as it was going across to gaza however this has been a much smaller scale demonstration there what we've seen in the previous weeks. was. the.

well in the most violent protests at the start of the month the french president eventually he yielded he's now promised to scrap unpopular planned increases in fuel prices and also raise the minimum wage that though hasn't diffuse some of the anger on the streets it was just over a month ago that one man posted a video on facebook calling on protesters to take up the yellow vest as a symbol the video quickly went viral chalking up millions of views. on you would we all have these yellow vests for the whole week starting from the seventeenth of november put on your yellow vest to show that you are with us without. we spoke of the inspiration behind the yellow vest movement and he told us

why people are still protesting despite concessions. so let's assume that these measures will affect only a small part of the population not all of the people who would benefit from what restaurant announced not all of the people are paid minimum wage there are people with a slightly higher wage he targeted a small majority unfortunately this is not the whole population and these measures are really small he could do a lot more he should have reduced the salaries of the rich because they have disproportionate salaries. these are rich in ways benefits this is not fast the poor pay more debts and the rich with zero taxes this is disproportionate this is the beginning of chaos we should for measures to resolve it we are on the streets in the wind in the cold not for a pleasure. the french of come because they could not stand it this is lasted for years not only mark wrong although here force did nothing to save the situations people are on the streets not giving it because they are determined.

earlier this week in france four people were killed and a dozen injured in a terror attack in strasburg a gunman opened fire on a crowd of christmas market and then fled a two day manhunt followed ending in a gunfight with police during which the suspect was killed. i saw a lot of people running it were terrified children were crying so i realised something terrible was happening and people said there was a shooting right next door so i ran to. see if. i was on my way to the city center with a friend but the road was blocked and we couldn't go further someone told us there was a gunman shooting at people and we couldn't even get back home so we ended up being stuck here. it's reported that the gunman shouted god is great because he started

shooting authorities say he was a local who had likely been radicalized and press father said his son supported islamic state. were fighting for a just cause it's also being revealed he had an extensive police record and was on the french watch list of possible extremists. considering the target the perpetrators way of operating his profile and the testimonies of those how to. terror police have been called into action terrorism has once again struck our country in strasburg reminding us in a dramatic fashion that the threat is still very real we have been two members of the european parliament from opposite ends of the political spectrum they agree though that europe's current policy needs reviewing we kept one minute of silence for the victims as we do recently. as we were doing every day and this is good to

get in but because we were doing the work of though this is a lot of time this monday that means we have to change policies to find the sources of the terrorism and to talk of the sources of the reasons for that which we have to stop the war should we do we have to really degrade the. fuel to. the suburbs of paris and brussels. and we have to do to work together with the moderate islam to the week of two to establish some long term goals and try to achieve them marial as more as i think this was expected this is proof that this is a must terrorist has committed a crime that was relatively easy to commit i believe it is time to react the terrorist who carried out this massacre yesterday was well known to the police so why wasn't he detained in advance we discuss it here in strauss book with the e.u. having opened its borders this free such relation of people has brought allowed criminals to move about freely every time we have such tragedy we get back to the

topic of border control and i think we should take back control of the borders and make the criminals afraid again because now they are not scared yet ordinary people are scared of going to christmas markets with their kids scared to go outside it is not enough to light candles to cry to say like they do all the time. about the clan we are france and we want france to live in peace. us national security advisor has criticised russia and china's activity in africa john bolton was and dealing a new policy which he says will benefit the continent across the continent russia advances its political and economic relationships with little regard to the rule of law or are accountable and transparent governance. it continues to sell arms and energy in exchange for votes at the united nations china uses bribes

opaque agreements and the strategic use of debt to hold states in africa captive to beijing's wishes and demands to move on when china talks about cooperation with africa china's focuses more on what africa needs such as agriculture modernization and accelerated industrialization but the related statement made by the u.s. concerned simply what the united states itself needs there with bolton a heavily critical of the fall of russia and china in the area where gas care has taken a close settler at america's own vision. this regarding that it reads more like a declaration of war than a strategy and this plan is for the good of africa promises john bolton this coming from a guy whose boss trump infamously referred to several african nations as something that i can't mention on their the predatory practices pursued by china and russia start economic growth in africa threaten the financial independence of african

nations and pose a significant threat to u.s. national security interests it's interesting logic so when china or russia or someone else you don't like lends an african nation money that's dead colonialism almost financial slavery when america does it it's investment for africa's own good but if mentioning is that russia's trade with the continent pales into insignificance when compared to the us or china look at this realize this highway hydro power station all built with chinese investment beijing is raising entire cities with more to come china is willing to provide another sixty billion dollars in support of africa to government assistance investment and financing of financial institutions and enterprises the phrase actions speak louder than words

is entirely a political here the chinese leader xi jinping has visited africa nine times during his tenure trump once sent his wife but what the united states might lack in tact it more than makes up with guns american troops are stationed in fifty out of fifty four african nations it has thirty four military sites thousands and thousands of soldiers across the entire continent and a long history of military interventions china has. one base in djibouti russia has none american troops are there for african's own good washington would say speaking of which remember the whole chinese and russian money that had american money good thing well it turns out not so much our new foreign assistance strategy will ensure that all us foreign aid in every corner of the globe advances u.s.

interest countries that repeatedly vote against the united states in international forums or take actions counter to u.s. interest should not receive generous american foreign aid john bolton they does and gentleman man who and they'll do america's new africa plan so much for financial independence africans good luck we need to move it to consider what really africa needs it's not really want china ney's want a russian it's all us need everyone china russia or all of france as it all has the kind of any country to number one the infrastructure of development and also to gave technology to grow their agriculture and their manufacturing base that's something that command a moral high no simply an album and the other all of the continent it doesn't really know how these people to grow their industry to earn

a better life distinct or ponting to russia or to to china for some of the you know allegedly bad behavior that doesn't really help the picture so it is up to the africans who decide. on it back in a couple of minutes after this break. president trump indeed has has his way of communicating but you have to hand it to him but sometimes it's better to try and shake up the established way of doing things in order to come to a different conclusion i think what's worrying is this focus on you know feet news and jump news because one of the foundations of a democracy has to be the trust in news facts and information and if that trust is

fundamentally shaken and the independent media are criticized then i think that that's a problem from a communications perspective. that's geysers financial advice they say the girl. who could use it this is a central perk support dying a problem is a good problem right now so you stuck to that. back to the weekly british prime minister trisomy was battling for. two friends this week she tried to win over skeptics in westminster and then sought to

renegotiate terms and with a look at how she felt. what a week for teresa me it really was the best of times it was the worst of times unacceptable ever. this prime minister can't even do a good job because of the civil war this government mr speaker is an embarrassment what is the prime minister considered to be most important pulling parliamentary colleagues games in this place or protect the job and businesses by pulling at the breaks the vote the prime minister must now concedes that deal is. and the house and the party appear to have no confidence in a prime minister in our government already been found to be in contempt of parliament her behavior today is just contemptuous of this problem a. parliamentary party does have confidence here.

following this but we now need to get on with the job of delivering bricks it for the british people and building a better future for this country one hand she managed to plow through that vote of no confidence that would triggered by her own party here in westminster but on the other hand she continues to be stuck in this massive deadlock when it comes to the biggest job she now has to get done which is bracks said all of this while sort of jumping like a tennis ball from one court to another going from westminster to the e.u. back to westminster to the e.u. and despite all this moving around not a lot of results seem to be getting produced tongil ones with lots and lots of roadblocks getting in her way you've had a falling week. what's been worse. something this week. one of the reports. you should believe everything you reason what what was it what it was difficult was it in the malcontents at home or was it

been the bullies over here negotiations like this are always tough the risk difficult times as you get close to the very end and that can get even more difficult what drives me to carry on doing this and making sure we deliver is that this is what's right for the british people well though that latest hurdle was in fact in brussels bound but also back at home it seems that for theresa may everybody is on happy with something at this point you know for some people are saying not her deal let's now move on to the heart bracks it others are saying you know let's remain because things. they're going so badly at this stage others are saying let's have a second referendum because things are going so badly and you know we've seen earlier to deprogram protesters trying to block a bridge in westminster so the british people that to resubmit is trying to do her best for seem to have a lot so lots of mixed feeling on this issue and that in its own right seems to be the biggest problem that brussels now though has with all of this because they've

been saying to theresa may we need you to stop being so vague we need you to go back and get specifics from the house of parliament. of commons. if there was a risk to us. but it comes to you. for future relations. we have to reach this question of whether theresa may is too vague or not ended up being part of an exchange between her and the president of the european commission and ended up grabbing quite a bit of attention in the media very angry when you respond to her earlier today what did you say to him and did he admit that he had called you an endless well first of all i had a robust discussion with him because i think that's the sort of discussion you're able to have when you've developed a working relationship and you work together when you use that particular phrase

even talking about the general level of debate well whether these are robust discussions as theresa may has described them are actually going to end up leading somewhere remains to be seen whether they're going to end up being able to reach some kind of solutions or whether the u.k. is going to be launched towards a new deal bracks it's something that's increasingly being talked about remains to be seen and there's really not very much time left to see which one it's going to end up being while theresa may had a difficult week it seems that brags that negotiations didn't dampen the mood of the european commission president. you know afternoon ladies and gentlemen and welcome to with the final score from

softball today because of the. thank you. so were tough week for theresa may and also for president micro-loan with the yellow vests protest take an alternative look at their predicament is probably the latest episode in case you missed it it's crisis time for europe's oldest rivals in case you missed it made in much grown may be looking directly at something that. britain and france have been trying to outdo each other for over a millennium and with friends it turning into an indescribable less hasn't gone unnoticed at the other end of the year in town the france's president emanuel micron has stepped in to say you think that's bad hold of it all there in his case it's probably a golden goal it's a live ninety nine chateau margaux m.n.m.

true to the tradition of anglo got it right evil or are attempting to do their jobs into very self consciously contrast ing way yellow vests verses brags it past micron's and get his own people and mays to stop her and conservative colleagues ultimately though the outcome is the same their heads on the chopping block not literally there anymore so what can be learned from these two julie journeys towards political suicide to reason may cause suffered the side effects of asking people what they want and then. dying to make it happen the point is that referendum must be pretty unique in recent democratic history because the british government is trying to fulfill its promise pretty bad time to start if you ask me they should be self evident by now the vote is almost always choose the wrong thing like greg said oh may. the french need is taken the more traditional and honest approach to politics and pretty much ignored the people which generally was but

also carries the risk of having your capital city set on fire every weekend micron's ability to alienate the people is giving mary and when it's all for of kate a run for its money sure he through there is angry crowds calling for his resignation a few extra here i was and scrapped the times on fuel but he also did it sat in gold in the room and forgot to use the word sorry this just aerial approach doesn't go down too well in front of fritz and the heat so is pretty much ok with untouchable who needs talking down to them surely that must be one thing which makes the brags that result on the barricades directives across wrong. starrett see all inequality or ineptitude or anger over immigration or high costs or even low wages russia has been brain for being behind finally some political unity in europe.

around up of the week's top stories. if we have a new trade arrangements with china. foundation for. i think broadly the u.s. has a problem. in the rise of china no matter what they do. they all. say yes.

yes to all this is all the proof. it. was not until i. knew the.
