security council to recognize venezuela's self declared interim president the opposition leader. and as well as elected president nicolas my daughter says he is ready for talks but the opposition has quickly rejected his offer instead of people to take to the streets. if you go i am committed to international dialogue today tomorrow and always i'm committed and personally ready if i have to go and meet this guy climb to the top of mount pico humboldt's at three in the morning i will have to go naked i'll go naked on foot by car by motorcycle. it must be very clear to the world and these regimes nobody will take part in the book of course we're going back to the streets oh you mean that fry the broad brief wall in their violence that has been us well over the last three days. their opposition says there have been us minus twenty eight killed in anti-government

demonstrations the government says they want to stop at the most regimes but nicolas maduro is not the stepping down instead is proposing dialogue which the opposition regains it's been three days of protest mostly in the slums surrounding caracas which used to be from a little which used to be for chavez but now they've come out every night protesting their contras for and against both presidents with russia and china therefore front of the group from other little while the u.s. argentina brazil and colombia are four way door. around five hundred were arrested during large anti-government rallies in venezuela at one of the protests on wednesday opposition leader why go symbolically swore himself in as interim president venezuelan president nicolas maduro cut diplomatic ties with the trumpet ministration afterward recognized weibo as the country's new jet leader and

washington is ramping up the economic pressure on the daughter's government the u.s. treasury has pledged to ensure that it quite bill gets control of the country's resources . diplomatic and economic relations between the united states and venezuela must be consistent with the united states recognition of one united states who uses economic and diplomatic tools to ensure that commercial transactions by the venezuelan government including those involving state owned enterprises and international reserves and consistent with his recognition. the statement from the treasury did not specify whether the measures would target event as well as sales of venezuela is the fourth largest oil exporter to the united states and so far washington has stopped short of imposing an embargo but all prices have already risen and lists are predicting larger impacts with a knock on effect in the united states. with auto accuses the u.s. of meddling in his country's internal affairs and it's not the first time or place

that washington has faced such accusations. by. yet can't stand freedom fighters here telling us the free country to.

protect libyan people from copies force. well a former chief of staff to the u.s. secretary of state says that america has played a significant part in bringing more oil to venezuela two thousand and two i know that we started in the bush administration a significant effort with regard as in that as

a lawyer that that effort has now come to some sort of chaotic fruition is no surprise to me we do not like regimes and i'm not trying to say that chavez duro are good for venezuela i think they aren't they weren't ultimately but i am saying that the united states has been probably and others do very complicit in making that more prominent and bringing chaos to south american countries. roger stone long time political advisor of donald trump has been released on bail after being indicted on several charges introduced by special counsel robert muller stones to tension came as part of the ongoing investigation into alleged russian during the twenty sixteen american presidential elections and the charges include obstruction making false statements and witness tampering though there is absolutely no mention whatsoever of any collusion with russia which is exactly what

the probe is a stance simply looking into. reports. well roger stone a long time republican strategist going all the way back to the nixon era apparently in the early hours of the morning he was arrested we now have a twenty four page indictment from the f.b.i. and from the federal courts he's essentially being charged with making false statements on multiple occasions witness tampering as well as obstruction now what's interesting is that this arrest is pretty clearly coming down as part of the bob muller investigation into alleged collusion between the trump campaign in the twenty sixteen election and russia we have heard from roger stone now that he has been released on this morning at the crack of dawn twenty nine f.b.i. agents arrived at my home with seventy vehicles with their lights flashing when they could simply have contacted my jersey city and i would be more than willing to

surrender voluntarily. and they terrorize my wife my dogs and i wound not guilty to these charges and i will defeat them in order i believe this is a politically motivated investigation i have trouble by the political motivations of the prosecutor and now we have a response from the white house as well sarah huckabee sanders the white house press secretary has pointed out that the arrest and the indictment have nothing to do with the president now this comes after a fact that it appears that the f.b.i. may have tipped off c.n.n. about their planned arrest so they could be on the scene to record roger stone being taken away in handcuffs people see this is actually collusion between the f.b.i. and the media done for the purpose of trying to publicly humiliate roger stone a republican strategist and we have donald trump speaking up on twitter about the nature of the arrest and how it was carried out. greatest witch hunt in the history

of our country no allusion border coyote's drug dealers and human traffickers are treated better than who alerted c.n.n. to be there to arrest shows desperation on mueller's part i mean sending out two dozen f.b.i. men to arrest him. dickless show of force and and the indictment there's nothing in the indictment about collusion about russia about any of the things that mueller was this was supposed to be investigating but he's not getting to the bottom of any kind of collusion for the simple reason that i don't think collusion excess. france is bracing for an eleventh weekend of yellow first protests coming after recent remarks by president micron in which he portrayed himself as a man of the people protesters of long brother him as only a president of the rich charlotte toobin skew takes

a closer look. it seems the yellow vest protests have really taken their toll on president on just two years ago he was comparing himself to all gort now he's selling a rags to riches story. you know. if i had been born with a silver spoon in my mouth or the son of a politician you could have a go at me but that's not the case the so-called president of the rich wants people to know that he wasn't born rich and he's just like you and me albeit with a personal fortune purported to be almost thirty million euros but as much on star seems to be news diving he did what politicians do best damage control mainly in the form of a nationwide let's get all feelings off our chest exercise otherwise known as the national debate most of them are going to talk too much as my goal is to listen to you in a free and fair manner if there are questions i will answer them but what i want is

free to express yourself in the most little richt manner to go on the tour he said the filthy rich of the world economic forum in davos because there's a chance that that might not look so good they're also going to though that this damage control is working with several recent polls showing the president's popularity has been creeping back up so we thought we'd ask people here in paris what do they think is money just another guy from the block. he studied in the elite schools as aristocrats to he was made that the french elite is created in this way can't understand the everyday problems of french people living on the minimum wage but it's not really important what he says now he's future actions will define his presidency i can say he's a president of the rich throughout his career mark on his network with people who were born with silver spoons in their mouths i think he's more president for the british he's a pockets of the big banks he obviously doesn't come from you know the lower income

brackets you know like some of us do i think he probably tries. i think he's more a president of the rich judging by the last his interview. aside from internal discontent paris also faces external pressure with the italian prime minister accusing france and germany of running the e.u. with their own interests and disregarding the views of other member states. their only thinking of the national interests certainly our allies cannot believe that we will sit silently of the table to underwrite decisions taken by others. speaking a few days after france and germany signed a friendship treaty under the pact the two countries agreed to deepen their economic alignment with common new regulations and france gave it support to germany's bid to have a permanent seat at the u.n. security council earlier italy's interior minister matteo salvini call for an alternative alliance between italy and central europe. they were up i thought that

europe is used to the franco german axis but we're seeking a new balance a new energy and in this sense poland in italy will be the protagonists of this new european spring thaw they ne is known for his tough stance on immigration he has repeatedly accused france and germany of stoking the crisis earlier this week he described emanuel macron as a terrible president and blamed france for de stabilizing africa political analyst nicholas markovitch gave us his views on the dispute. i think what we're seeing now is that there are really two opposite views of the european union on one side you've got france and germany who are and that i think closing their eyes on what really is going on within the european union and pretending that nothing bad is going on and on the other side we've got to tell you things which are at the forefront of the other countries of other countries at least of the european union saying well there's a big divide and they don't understand what's going on they don't understand what

the french and germans are doing they don't understand why a lot of the main problems which are facing europeans today massive immigration unemployment problems concerning the schooling universities are not being dealt with so i don't think the european union is going to be able to solve this and unfortunately this is a this is a big blow for the european dream but it shows that if we want to solve these major problems that i think a lot of the countries will want to solve themselves outside of the european union quite a part of the hour here in moscow the longest government shutdown in u.s. history has been temporarily lifted will give you the scoop on that after the break .

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race in. spearing dramatic development that only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. you know world of big partisan new things. and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever 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 the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks.

go saturday stories here on out to international us president donald trump assigned to build temporarily lifting the longest shutdown in the country's history for the past thirty five days he's been wrangling with democrats in an unsuccessful bid to secure funding for a border with mexico. i am very proud to announce today that we have reached a deal to end the shutdown and reopen the federal government i will make sure that all employees receive their back pay very quickly or as soon as possible for over a month the democrat house speaker nancy pelosi has been seen as the main obstacle to trump's plans for a border wall is a quick recap of the to ing and fro ing. the

longest shutdown the longest government shutdown in u.s. history followed workers and contractors lined up for a free meal their traffic controllers pilots and flight attendants are warning travelers they cannot guarantee their safety. you have been told you should have no way out of the before we get it passed very easily and that we would get a chance you have to be asked in two seconds and we need border security did she find nancy we need border security to a city that you would accept even though all of wall fun places present from all over the world. that dollar that. i felt so i'm not blind to my. answer because she. then she as i call it the president doesn't know what is talking about he thinks it's ok not to pay people who do work surprise surprise she doesn't want to hear

the truth sucker so to confront the radical left. sadly given the security concerns and the less government reopens i suggest we'll work together to determine and other suitable dates after government has reopened for this address or for you to consider delivering your state of the union address in writing. due to the shutdown i'm sorry to inform you that your trip to brussels egypt and afghanistan has been postponed overseas if you'd like to make flying commercial so . maybe you. can call. unpresidential. stormed out of that party

unknown thank you for sure what she's doing to our constitution isn't just trace. mining has burst in south east brazil killing seven that's according to officials run us down there right now at least one hundred fifty missing the collapse released a huge volume of mining waste flooding rural areas and nearby towns evacuated and survivors were airlifted to safety the iron ore mine is owned by the brazilian metals giant valley. also offshore it's another down in the state which ruptured in twenty fifteen contaminating rivers and killing nineteen people. around twenty thousand nigerian girls and women are being held in mali as sex slaves that's according to the head of nigeria's anti trafficking agency they're reportedly being held deep inside forests with little chance of escape the girls

and women who range in age from sixteen to thirty many had been tricked into thinking they were going to be going for jobs and hospitality in malaysia others which is kidnapped on their way to or from school the director general of the trafficking agency says they are being held in terrible slave like conditions and we spoke to godwin morcha who's also from the agency about its findings in the. number of three d. doesn't square to let me to get to rescue these girls we need to work really loosely we did not do it is especially i did look under videos the real st john's they have different abilities and bill report to them to do it is deliberately issued in this history the instructions for damn wrist wrist. the un has previously highlighted the problem of human trafficking in nigeria and called for international funding in areas where human traffickers operate the most a god when walker again says that apart from rescue efforts it's essential to work

with women to teach them how to spot the traffickers traps. to change to choose to. want to ensure there will be there were no to do is bring them back we're going to. receive repetition program and that's the program for this hour here on oxy international thanks for sharing some of your stuff today with us here at moscow now what is just about nine twenty one am we are back soon with much more. join me every thursday on the elec simon chill and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then.

what holds his hands to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to be. actually going to be for us to see what will befall three of them or can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of. course if. you are you know more than fifty percent of the day has passed your screen and your screen is controlling it through some little incentive said hey you know robot on the shelf you know play my favorite song i love that feel so good i'm so warm inside you know meanwhile your bank accounts being drained by wall street and you know you know your net worth is collapsing in your money's being destroyed and all

the relationships are hardly dysfunctional and you're living in a frickin prison and you have no right to assemble no right to free speech. if you're feeling good about it because this is extraordinarily. subversive holiday shifts it's this state gone amok. us veterans who come back from war often tell the same stories. were going after the people who were killing civilians they were not interested in the wellbeing of their own soldiers either there already is several generations of them so i just got this memo from the circulating branches off that says we're got to act and destroy the government and seven countries in five years americans pay for the wars with them money others with their lives if we were willing to go into harm's way and willing to risk being killed for a war then surely we can risk some discomfort for uneasiness

for. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the us is over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you want to be ultra rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent from august last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one business showed you can't afford to miss the one and only boom but.

only. we settled for the past couple of years from theocratic pit to peace islands of plastic but the reality is the may still be a ship and. have it in this fine lair of micro plastics one two three. the biggest thing that has shocked me is that we've never had an empty troll. like the contents of the something of an albatross. people obviously come in they just throw them into the water as disposal it may not be harmful for that little fish that eats one fragment a profit but once it makes its way up to us in the food chain it's getting to levels that are harmful. in the united states we proactively require brominated flame retardants to be put

into furniture and carpeting among other things and that's resulted in extremely higher levels all the little slimmer curtains in the human bodies of americans as opposed to europeans and that ultimately has affected the cognitive outcomes of literally a generation of american children. i told you. that. i was not. i am. i am.

in early february two thousand and fourteen as the main crisis was getting more violent there was a phone call that was intercepted it was a call between the secretary of state for european affairs victoria nuland and the u.s. ambassador to ukraine geoffrey pyatt. private chats between. you know what. i think. probably. so you had this remarkable phone call.

of the u.s. government apparently talking about a coup or how they were playing to restructure the government of ukraine. exactly i'm not saying the whole u.s. government feels that way the there is division on this but the neo conservative element very much to change the strategic dynamic in eastern europe. people and they've been at this for a long time they came in around the issue of propaganda they studied how to create hot buttons for the american people they had this experience when they were getting the american people to get excited about central america back in the one nine hundred eighty s. . and they've been applying those same strategy ever since they were dedicated to achieving their goals they still want to get rid of certain governments they want a regime change in syria for instance regime change in iran. very skilled at this

and they have a lot of allies now inside the news media inside the government means the. they can do a lot to control the narrative of any story so i think in america these days we have somehow told ourselves that there are a lot of ways of dealing with these problems other than hard power. cares about hard power the neoconservatives can now demonize a leader of a country that sells with the american people so you don't just sort of argue a policy you attack the leader so the neoconservatives became very skilled at picking out leaders finding their ugly traits and then highlighting them you had a co bitch you might say was a rather clunky political leader but you make him into a devil is he's totally corrupt and he's evil and he wants to kill people in the made in these wonderful white headed demonstrators so you get a black hat versus white hat and then you keep repeating that basic scenario and it works with the american people got to realize what vladimir putin.
