give it up as well i must really feel that you're going to get worse but those were the order. of this but i was just. my body and we've. just got that already yes it will be in the thought of getting up there calling with your implement that. was. god and. i. think the yellow vests rallies sweep across france for a ninth consecutive weekends causing chaos on the streets safe to come.

three people are killed and forty seven injured as a large explosion destroys a bakery in the center of paris authorities blame a gas leak. refuses to shake hands with a winning russian rival because he was previously balanced the taping. live from the russian capital this is all t. international welcome to the program our top story yellow vests activists say keeping up the pressure on the french government thousands took to the streets for a ninth weekend in iraq.

oh. the first tensions are rising here the up to three or three in paris one of the protests in the city one of many protests taking place across france they officials think is saying thirty two thousand people taking part in those figures that some lower than the fifty thousand took politician last weekend but the yellow vests movements have often to speech at those official figures saying that they only show a small proportion of the people who are out on the streets we have had violence here in new york to creoles our. her outlook for. the. good. stuff there's water cannons now in full force trying to push

protests is a way. that water cannon and tear gas plumes coming up from the ground we've seen the protesters throwing projectiles at the police we've seen the police responding. to gas that's just being dispersed those flash pools and those gas pellets as well as we look like to be sun canapes and a mobile police force now you can see running in the hole dressed in black you could just see behind me that is that. five has just appeared been coming along people reveling around that as that our gas comes in the air the tear gas

is just moving we can hear it now people are moving to want why when i have to move as there is tear gas of being out pushed out there are around five thousand offices taking part in the security of paris today eighty thousand across france people i've spoken to the chelation all say yes this is act nine this is the ninth consecutive weekends but this is not going to stop this is going to continue . to appease the protest says the french president is launching a three month long national debate some have likened it to what's new with the sixteenth it just before the french revolution but even though the current government says it wants a discussion there are certain subjects that appear to be off limits those who think a few thousand people can make us question our institutions a room at the bottom nipple always of course going after the debates and not adopted unity for people to offload all of their frustrations nor are we

questioning what we've done in the past eighteen months we're not replaying the election to do what the national debates will starts next week but a recent poll shows only forty percent of citizens are willing to take part yellow vest members on the streets of paris we spoke to say a debate is not what they've been asking for. this national debate is above all a national must grow the government has already announced that after this debate you will not go back to previous politics the fact that the government remove certain issues from the debate shows it's not a real one the government doesn't want to face a fresh election campaign because it knows it will. go on even this from that the national debate is good but the way the current government wants to arrange an appliance is completely inappropriately goalie no one wants the national debate he's proposing not us not the yellow vests not the french people we're waiting for

him to resign so we can say goodbye micio mccraw. meanwhile the l a vast movement is inspiring people in the u.k. hundreds have been demonstrating in london to mounting an end to a story to aspire a say and calling for a general election however those bright jackets have become to symbolize a range of other causes to. explains. the brits love of french fashion trend and the very latest is the yellow vest this weekend left wing activists to staging a demonstration in london demanding a general election and calling for increased public spending it doesn't matter which way you vote in the referendum you need to govern what we need now is a general election and austerity will be doing it in solidarity of the other bus over in france every day is going to these high fees jackets which jacket choice of people trying to bring down governments playing. playstation. but there is another

british incarnation of the yellow vest trend see if you can spot the difference your. view on. these yellow vests appears to be in favor of a hardcore no deal version of bragg's it in recent weeks they've started staging small regular protests in westminster where they were. the prime minister as a traitor they've also become known for their heckling of politicians and journalists near parliament. we have to be absolutely i do object to being called a nazi i actually heard the word was really just wrong i just feel sorry for your parents rosa is wrong you were born you are dangerously low balling. love her oh oh oh oh oh it's now emerged that one prominent self-styled yellow vest leader is james god he's

a supporter of the far right english defense league priestess lama phobic comments online and live streams a lot of his so-called political activism. uses crowd funding to collect donations from supporters but after the uproar over the group's intimidating behavior in westminster last week facebook and pay pal have removed his accounts updates on his twitter feed claim he's been silenced and he won't answer r.t.s. requests for an interview he has put up an alternative funding page online with a message saying that now more than ever it's important to be heard so unlike in france here in the u.k. it looks like it's a case of two causes keen to claim one vest the original yellow vest movement mushroom organically and spontaneously across france in response to a non-popular tax hike whereas in a way the symbol of the yellow vest here in the u.k. is still up for grabs the left wing incarnation is moderate it's aligned to groups

like the people's assembly and the stop the war campaign although they repeatedly stated aim is none other than bringing down the conservative government in favor of a labor one then there's the right wing yellow vests a group that on the surface just appears angry that the brags that they voted for could be slipping away from the. and also appears to contain members with far right sympathies who might be donning these yellow vests in order to legitimize their views whatever you make of the movement it appears that they're trying to capitalize on a french fashion one that appeared effortless in france but is looking a bit try hard here in the u.k. and until stereotype activist in the u.k. told us the far right has been trying to hijack the l a vessel so it takes inspiration from the french movement which are taking on the french government for similar reasons the demands they're making are similar to what we've been

campaigning for years on around housing austerity public services and the rest and they're winning there whether you voted leave or remain is irrelevant the fact is that a stereotype is literally killing people in this country it has reached detrimental levels and we need this tory government now and that's something that should unite us the far right who are trying to use that anger and mobilizing refugees and migrants and ethnic minorities are not welcome in our demonstration and we will make it clear tomorrow that we have campaign against the racist scapegoating by this government we support refugees we were involved in the convoy to color a few years ago and that is why movement stands for. more news from paris now three people have been killed after a large explosion ripped through a bakery in the city center forty seven other people were injured with ten said to be in critical condition.

that was. a gas leak at the bakery a suspected to have course the blast the incident happened just before nine o'clock on saturday morning the two firefighters killed had been responding to the report of a gas leak and were caught up in the explosion the spanish foreign ministry confirms the third fatal it was a female spanish tourist we spoke to several eyewitnesses. who were just working up the building step to shake heads and smashing glass everyone looked at their windows and a lot of window panes had been smashed about fifteen minutes later there were police men in the courtyard just saying been an explosion need to evacuate everybody out and that's what happened to us we saw that our window was completely opened from the sound of the explosive it was

a massive sound i mean it sounded it was for me from my experience it's kind of like a bomb we were asked you know what's happening nobody on the crew of what's happening like twitter really after that which up close on. a path lone star has refused to shake hands with the russian rival who came back from a day of being bad for his first world cup stage when eleven time world champion martin for carter france blank tell xander logan of who completed a two year ban in twenty sixteen r.t. correspondent has the story. this world cup stage victory is the first big win for alexander log enough since he ended his two here doping disqualification but for the russian the moment is somewhat shadowed by the reaction of people he beat in the race for them the fact that he was

a cheat still wrangles i'm not happy that logan offers one i'm ok with the fact he's allowed to compete now but he won't get my respect as he's never apologized for doping we need to be fair his victory is a disgrace logan of himself could have apologized in front of the biathlon thermally if you use drugs there is no place for you here but if you show you progress about what happened people will find it much easier to trust you logon of fans in turn have been pointing out that the athlete served his sentence he himself says he's ready to personally talk this thing over with any of his fellow athletes know you're going to. like it repeating honestly that to everybody open for dialogue with anybody else leads and i'm ready to answer all of the questions face to face with his full story basically revolves around the fact that right before the sortie lympics in twenty fourteen one of his former doping tests came out positive he got caught taking the same drug that brought down disgraced cyclist

lance armstrong's reputation or a throw poet and a stimulant which basically boosts an athlete's insurance by athlon legend all of beyond dalin is one of those who says logging of should be given a chance to start with a clean slate excuse the pun he's already served his punishment we have to respect his comeback however many from the biathlon family didn't like his victory logan teammates in fact also have offered support. just because. most of us. on our own a lot of. north. london lots of us have. or whatever.

and frankly this is not an uncommon situation many athletes resumed their careers in spite of hostility towards them following doping scandals and many proved that even having cheated once it doesn't mean the person will repeat their fence. a sports lawyer told us that there's no justification for the french athletes behavior the older athletes have to expect and respect. his personality and that he's doing well exceptionally well now and i think it's it has to do with respect to such behaviors cannot be justified i think everybody knows that all the press and the media as day or a little bit. against russia actually and perhaps nobody has the real yeah let's say

power to to say something or the the braveness to say well let's stop here he served his ban. we have to accept and respect him. the u.s. secretary of state has branded the venezuelan government as illegitimate that story and more after the break. every major bank in the world if they were accounted for in a generally accepted accounting principles according to the rule of law they would have all been closed down many years ago but it's like the old woody allen joke he goes the doctor says dr my brother thinks he's a chicken and the doctor says here good news pills he says you're understand doctor

we need the eggs ok fraud runs the american economy without banking fraud there would be no g.d.p. whatsoever. as a spy you have to really split your own personality into two you that is the committed jihad this. was still alive within me and then there is some who wanted to counter everything they want to do and then try and dismantle everything they were doing just so you have to really become a productive in order to. you have to follow your own family in order to fool them . and. welcome back to. the u.s.

secretary of state has lashed out at the newly reelected president of venezuela saying his name legitimate c. . pay is words were backed up by the state department. the majority is illegitimate and the united states will work diligently to restore a real democracy to that country the people of venezuela deserve to live in freedom in a democratic society governed by the rule of law it's time to begin the orderly transition to a new government mike pompei was speaking two days after nicolas maduro began a new six year term as venezuela's president as the head of fairness wireless opposition run congress has called the inauguration illegal. described president maduro as it was super and accused him of telling venezuela into a date dictatorship speaking at a rally on friday quater said he was ready to temporarily take over the presidency to hold new elections here the armed forces to support him nicolas maduro has ruled

venice way less since the death of former leader who go chavez in two thousand and thirteen during that time the economy has nosedives leading to hyperinflation and food shortages the president has consistently blamed u.s. sanctions for the situation in his country and accuse the opposition of sabotaging the economy. this is an attempt to destabilize us let the most can play the game because they're mocking their own people we will continue our work because there is much that needs to be done for venezuela people to the people of venezuela to mobilize and remain steadfast. to discuss this further we can cross live now to jim dow trust for me u.s. diplomats jim good to have you on the program now my pump a washington is determines the to restore real democracy in venezuela does that sound like they want to redeem change. oh absolutely yes this is clearly

a declaration that washington's goal is regime change look i don't think it is appropriate for any government to say through the people of another country whether their constitutional processes happened legitimately fall or not whether government is legitimate and to use this as grounds for trying to change the government of that country i think some degree of sovereign respect is in order as well as the economy look i'm not a socialist i don't like the economics of the current of venezuela government but i don't see why it's in the interest united states to increase the misery of people through sanctions what amounts to siege warfare that harms the most vulnerable people and order to accomplish a political regime change just seems to me not a very good neighborly policy say by what means could the u.s. cease to change the leadership in venezuela and say what risks could this bring well i think what we're looking at is a couple things one is it what it amounts to an endorsement of

a political opposition in venezuela the neck if i can cut two ways it can be you can both of them with some elements of the population or might cause some people to have a nationalist reaction rally around the flag so to speak and i am sure that we have kober assets in venezuela including within the armed forces and that's why i think we see these references to which way will the armed forces break if there is a political confrontation in that country. so as we head the opposition lead in venezuela the military to help bring how penn bring down the governments but where do you see this needing to. i don't i don't know that i don't not sure anybody does i my fear is that there will be a deliberate effort maybe from the outside to provoke an outbreak of violence and that in a context where there is only the beginning of a civil conflict then the military will have to act on one side or the other the military itself could split this could get very very ugly and i mean i just don't

see that this is necessary so if we talk about nicholas madore then how much responsibility does he bad for that chaos and instability in his country and is it enough to simply blame the u.s. and the opposition. i'm sure there's a lot of blame to go around and i could understand his position he would want to say it's all the americans fault for this thank you i'm sure there's some degree of truth to that i don't know how much to assess his own policy his own party as a governor and for misgovernance of venezuela or the. economic misery that people there find themselves in are rather than assigning blame i would like to think you know we could play more of the role of an honest broker to try to bring about a national reconciliation if we think their policies that. following better that are better for venezuelan bad for the region maybe we can have a discussion about that i don't see how exacerbating those tensions and worsening

the measure misery of venezuelan people is in anybody's interest we appreciate your comments. for me us diplomats thank you for coming on to the program and your. fate fights can end at massey as an israeli newspaper found out that softer it came to the origin of the puppet i made in a stash. i .

get money is right if you really want to try to. kid me have it everywhere call it. he's ready and. so we have different kinds of foods here and. from all different countries yet you know that just is really about israelis make a great. you know today it's with the latest global news so i'll have more updates for you in thirty minutes time see that.

what holds if you should. put themselves on the line big get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. some want to be rich. but you'd like to be closer to what the fuck are you the more people that are interested always in the waters. there should. always telling us all we can have everything at the same time we can have peace and democracy blah blah blah in

a costco six intuition i know war situation that's not true is that instead of telling people what you can't have everything and then failing to deliver on them everything at all we should be fabric here and say ok you can have cheese like some kind of peace you can have some kind of democracy you can have some kind of justice in the short term but unfortunately we cannot feel everything at the same time so someone has to make a choice. when they came back from a. war. anything that's all true trying to get us out. using the chemical that would be self medicating. i want to be drinking and drinking i want to end up just killing myself by drinking. don't drink get

drunk alcoholics drink to feel normal. that's why it's this way drag out into. a shop bus over the next. star cool do what these guys are bring through to it it just leads to. they just need to be helped and get pushed on by the v.a. as far as drugs go and stuff they need to be helped. and they just really shouldn't be looked at like numbers they should be looked at by people if they go to a veteran center for health issues be considered as someone who really needs attention of. law. on the side are americans in america covering american news are called foreign

agents. last month we finally got to see the two senate reports spelling out the russian meddling in our last election and it was a bombshell it rocked the heart of our country it shredded the inflamed mucus e core of our democracy it dead as dan cohen reporting for the grey zone projects everything from the green party's jill stein to instagram to poke him on go to the african american population had been used and confused by the deceptive facebook pages of a private russian troll farm called the internet research agency yes russia even use pokémon. come to twenty sixteen don't like shared. die then they realize. yes this bogeyman go is see i i've backed. russia you can use pokémon go. to manipulate us the cia was doing that.

anyway we're getting off track which tends to happen when you follow pickets you around. that yes. bastard fast. ok so we learned from their own poor last month that the russian internet research agency manipulated us with facebook ads if you don't mind know the senate would really prefer you just ignore the facts as facebook admitted fifty six percent of those ads were after the election and roughly twenty five percent of the ads were never shown to anyone. but our brave congress men and women are not going to be dissuaded by reality after the reports came out mark warner tweeted it's incredible these bombshell reports demonstrate just how far russia went to exploit the fault lines of our society and divide americans so who are these amazing

unbiased sleuths who put together this legitimate and unbiased report the new york times found out they are a group called new knowledge which sounds like a terrible boy band but new knowledge was founded by veterans of the obama administration jonathan morgan and ryan fox so. i guess we're doing away with the nonpartisan unbiased thing. well in that case i say let's go hard or go home i want more bias probably more biased more good also develop technology for the defense advanced research projects agency darpa the arm of the department of defense created for basic applied technological research and futuristic war toys all right all right not bad not better like we're going with this but i know what you think we have a hunger for even.
