1:02 pm
a thirteenth consecutive weekend of yellow vest rallies and from the send it into horror with a protester losing his amid clashes with police our video agency ripley film the moments immediately afterwards a warning you may find the following video disturbing. was. to. the national assembly and people were trying to force their way in the police arrived and threw grenades one hit the guy who tried to push it away with his hands as a reflex reaction and the grenade went off well the situation seems to be something that we've seen for many weeks here in paris clashes between the police and the protesters with t.
1:03 pm
a gas being used to disperse protesters and also grenades also being shot into the crowds but of course the protesters are normally the ones who do start off these scuffles by throwing projectiles such as rocks and broken glass to wards the police but what we've seen today is it seems one of the protesters one of the shell asians who's actually photographing the event for the social movement actually had a his hand blown off in a grenade on television on me and volunteer medics were first at the scene two of ours rushed up to help him to the general commotion another team of medics surrounded him to wall him off when a person is in that condition he needs to breathe properly you don't want crowds gathering around watching and filming that would frighten the injured person even more. but this is not the first time we've seen injuries like this since the movement started back on november seventeenth basically back on december tenth in budo protested that actually picked
1:04 pm
a canadian up and it exploded as he held in his hand there's also been many other injuries in these protests including more than a dozen people who have lost their lives since the start of these protests and the figures suggest that some one thousand seven hundred plus chelation ones have been injured in some method or another i also. a thousand gendarme and police officers who've also been injured as a result of these protests but despite all of those injuries the protesters say they will continue coming out to the streets are demands remain in place that's why we are marching we're demanding better salaries and conditions in france. we're here because we don't want to be subject to government decisions without having a say we have one group the elite of them who decide whether we have the right not what we have to pay for our message is the same this marsh we want a better life so what has the government done to try and stem these protests well a president gave
1:05 pm
a big speech back in december where he announced that the minimum wage the simic would rise by one hundred euros a month he also said that people who are in bonuses for the end of the year they wouldn't have to pay social contributions and that no tax and people who over time would be in a similar situation no tax no social contributions on that and the government is in the middle of a national debate across france getting people together to air their concerns to talk about the things that matter to them so the government can decide whether to make the changes that people say or not however the jle asians have said this isn't enough and many felt that the offers the concessions being given by present might go on with too little too late and that's why they've kept coming out to the streets and now we're hearing that the protesters are going to change tactics permanently the government is becoming more and more repressive we denounce the extreme violence and the use of excessive force the authorities not seeking compromise but passing laws that limit our rights so we have collectively decided
1:06 pm
not to declare the time and place of demonstration some powers from now on rule not be the partners in crime with the government there is the mention there of a law to limit right so what these relations are referring there to is what's known as the anti hooligan or it was just cussed recently by deputies the m.p.'s in the lower house in the national assembly and they've approved that now that law is going to move on to the senate before it goes on the statute books but that law would essentially limit some of the individuals from going to protest if they deem to be a public threat also part of the. is the idea that if you cover your face going into a protest even with a simple scarf you could be liable to up to a year in jail and a fine of fifteen thousand euros so many people claiming that this new law which is set to pass in the next few weeks here in france is actually contra against their civil liberties. those images still startling thirteen weeks on let's go live now
1:07 pm
to jacques myard a former m.p. in the murder of mr saleh feet a commune on the outskirts of parra shack while come given the casualties we've seen today do you believe the police are using excessive force or are the yellow vests provoking this kind of response themselves i think i think the truth is in the middle so it's a question of balance between the police who is in which is a duty to defend a national assembly and not allowing people to come in and secondly of course some very violent like you know yellow. yellow vests who tried to provoke and to try to make sense worst but in fact i think this is you know what is happening now in france is not a question of police this is
1:08 pm
a question if the government is going to ansel's of politic call to resist movement and i think that you cannot really put the police let's say at stake because this is nor more a police question this is a political question is a government able to unserved what the french one better wages better bench and and of course to be considered with of course all the salt that is not only in the big downs that you have public services but as well in the landscape this. this is a mini issue of this moment and i think the mistake of this government has been to launch a long time ago to be when today we see that every saturday because of the debate the yell of the best will come out and we will have this kind of demonstration i think it's very urgent to stop the debate and to say
1:09 pm
now we unser if you knew all the marriage of this woman that means increase of wages and purchase power and also put anyone etc and the authorities are clamping darn jack france's lower a host has passed the bill including amongst other things introducing one year prison terms for demonstrators covering their faces if it becomes law do you think that would deter any yellow vest hers no because in fact it's very you know this is a law which is certainly necessary to protect our police and to try to jail xaus who are violent but it won't stop the the let's as a fundamental demonstration which is nothing to do with this kind of violence so i think that in fact you will of course jails all those who are violent should not demonstrate but you are not going to the merits of this
1:10 pm
demonstration which is a power of purchase power which is pension which is that the government should consider the french and not be arrogant to them how are things you mentioned by not just being in large cities hora things in your commune miss on the feet it's relatively near the hotspot of same tinney isn't it are there many yellow festers if so how do you deal with em. not at all i. held. a debate with four hundred per cent soon the big room and then. and we had a chant and everything was very calm but what's coming out of the floor will express themselves is that they want to you know general in the blowout purchase power to one pension there when the skull just is that everyone is saying that we
1:11 pm
want that everybody pays taxes from the first europe but it should be more balanced and of course they are criticizing criticizing the the huge wages people who live on the question of international level and avoid taxes and fraud you know this is a manere maybe we ought to toss people who are asking for a chance jackie thank you very much for your take and your thoughts this hour jack me our former m.p. in the mirror of missile left feet. thank you. tensions between venezuela's beleaguered president and the leader of the opposition are rising one guy joe our p.l.t. on friday by telling the f.p. news agency that he's not ruling out calling for a u.s. military intervention against nicolas maduro. but i mean they know we would do
1:12 pm
everything possible once again this is obviously a very very controversial subject making use of our sovereignty and within our jurisdiction we would do what's necessary at the moment. opposes trained as agents of foreign governments of the united states introduced sources of unrest of internal chaos to dismember the states in venezuela they have driven us to the point that libya was taken over syria was taken to the point of an armed opposition that they have attempted but we have not allowed them to him and venezuela is our police. military intervention is actually one of the main talking points between both venezuelan president nicolas maduro and the self-proclaimed president one why don't the juror has already denounced the u.s. as imperialist in his exclusive interview with our team and he's also visiting many military bases across the country is encouraging the troops to remain loyal and he's overseeing the armament of people's militias there now on the other hand why
1:13 pm
don't has he hasn't ruled out authorizing the u.s. to intervene and he's been trying for over the past several weeks to encourage military officials to defect and with very limited success and that's because many people in venezuela don't think inviting the u.s. was why does the idea that washington believes model must go its reaction stems from its pivot to doctrine of overthrowing regimes and democratic systems that don't like having their arms twisted the humanitarian aid is a big it's the worst possible diagnosis of the situation we've seen that is no humanitarian crisis the us is trying to frame the situation in a way that would allow it to invade venezuela this won't happen we won't let it happen. and civilians are united and determined to defend the country sovereignty and territorial integrity. and why don't the us say that this humanitarian crisis. is very real except what aid means is actually
1:14 pm
a point of contention between the parties the venezuelan government claims it intercepted an arms shipment from the us earlier this week and it there there was reportedly assault rifles ammunition communications equipment flown in from miami as as a result the military has blocked roads leading into the country from colombia one of the u.s. allies and it's these reports the red cross has stressed that humanitarian aid needs to stay non political race humanitarian aid can never be a political issue we cannot divided population on the issue of women and their in-house because humanitarian aid is always neutral that this is a difficult moment when it's civil society to appreciate this kind of work which is aimed at people in need you know with the lines were drawn starting several weeks ago when he announced his claim to the presidency the washington based organization of american states immediately supported. and followed in the u.s. his footsteps but countries like russia china mexico cuba they quickly reacted in
1:15 pm
support of the duros government now most e.u. countries also decided to back why don't the dural refuse their ultimatum to hold another presidential election and u.s. national security advisor john bolton called on these pro pro majority governments to switch sides doubling down on the bad that doesn't make it to good that there is still time for russian others to join the community of responsible nations and recognizing why do the national assembly and the path to freedom and prosperity in the desert now although no one has yet to take bolton's advice the situation is definitely getting more tense and any changes in international legion says are certainly going to influence the domestic situation there. well the international monetary fund said on thursday about it is holding talks with member states on whether to recognize one why do as venezuelan president it follows reports that the self-proclaimed leader was considering asking the global financial body for
