i think. i. tear gas in the french capital market thirteenth straight weekend against falling living standards protesters call them increasingly. government. also help us all with fairness will aid in the throes of

a humanitarian crisis its opposition leaders say see no rule calling for a u.s. military intervention against the president. but i'm going to do everything possible once again this is obviously a very very controversial subject we would do what's necessary. a primary school in england trolls the parents for teaching children up i'd same sex relationships. it's. not right now because doing stuff. with them like that to you if you want to teach it we could teach them a home. life from our international news center here in moscow this is r t a warm welcome to the program i mean and our top story. a thirteen consecutive weekend of yellow vest

rallies in from the sended into horror with a protester losing his home made clashes with police or video agency ruptly film the moments immediately afterwards and warning you may find the following video distressing. was. to remove the national assembly and people were trying to force their way in the police arrived and threw grenades one hit the guy's leg 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 tear gas being used to disperse protesters and also aides 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 that 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 and a man volunteer medics were first at the scene two of ours rushed up to help him due 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 a grenade 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. police officers has 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 our demands remain in place that's why we are marching we're demanding better salaries and conditions in france because we're here because we don't want to be subject to government decisions without having a say we have one group the elite let's call them who decide whether we have the right to 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 a big speech back in december where he announced that the minimum wage the simic

would rise by one hundred you is a month he also said that people who were in bonuses for the end of the year they wouldn't have to pay social contributions and that no tax and people 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 have said this isn't enough for many well that the offers the concessions being given by president mack gone 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 authority is not seeking compromise but passing laws that limit our rights so we have collectively decided not to declare the time

and place of demonstrations and 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 that series what's known as the anti who it was discussed read. by deputies the m.p.'s in the lower house in the national assembly and they've approved that now that know it's 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 them who 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 we discussed the riot bill just mentioned by our correspondent

there with a number of guests who are of the opinion it won't help prevent violence i've seen just ordinary people who are going out to demonstrate who are peaceful people who cannot stand anymore to have the only answer from the government being violence that if tomorrow they cannot cover the face because police fired tear gas at them what type of democracy is this is below could enable police to impeach people from going to demonstrations because there's a doubt that they might bring troubles to the demonstrations this is minority report we're going to arrest people send them to jail because we think that maybe they may commit a crime this is just showing the tyrannical side of my truck today and i think it's going to be more central to the streets to the internet to the social networks to denounce the system until until he leaves this is a law which isn't certainly necessary to protect our police and to try to jail souls who are violent but it won't stop the fundamental demonstration which is

nothing to do with this kind of violence so i think that in fact you will of course jails all through of violence you should not demonstrate but you are not going to be. merits of this demonstration which is pension which is that the government should consider that brant and. caite another big story of the week tensions between venice willows beleaguered president on the leader of the opposition are rising one grind zero op the ante 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 everything possible once again this is obviously a very very controversial subject the making use of our sovereignty and within our jurisdiction we will do what's necessary. opposes trained as agents of

foreign governments of the united states introduce 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 they have attempted that but we have not allowed them to 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 go i don't know what juror has already denounced the u.s. as imperialist and 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 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

a very limited success and that's because many people in venezuela don't think inviting the u.s. was why does that 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 lie 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 the army and civilians are united and determined to defend the country sovereignty and territorial integrity. now why don't the us say that this humanitarian crisis. it's very real except what aid means is actually 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. humanitarian aid can never be a political issue we cannot divide a population on the issue of him in the terran 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 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 governments to switch sides doubling down on the bad but doesn't make it to good that there is still time for russia not those 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 another aspect to this story the international monetary fund said on thursday that it is holding talks with member states and whether to recognize one. venice within president it follows reports that the self-proclaimed leader was considering asking the global financial body for a bailout a spokesperson for the i.m.f. said a consensus must be reached before any loans can be issued. countries are still establishing

their position in terms of recognition so the proof that process is ongoing so as i said we are watching that closely the i.m.f. has one hundred eighty nine members on its run and that there is to ensure financial stability whilst promoting sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction one key function is to provide be allowed to indebted in recession hit countries in exchange for structural reforms. well in light of events in venice we allow wiki leaks recently drew attention to a document that it published in two thousand and eight switch it calls a us who manual it details washington's use of the global financial institutions like the i.m.f. and the world bank to advance its agenda and wage quote all vention l. war for against the trials. if properly authorized in coordinated

u.s. army special operations forces can use or coordinate for other agencies to use measured in focus financial incentives or disincentives to persuade adversaries allies and surrogates to modify their behavior at the theatre strategic operational and tactical levels such application of financial power must be part of a circumspect integrated and consistent unconventional warfare plan well wall street analyst michael hudson believes there's nothing new in the u.s. pushing its interests through international financial institutions. the world bank has always been run by the u.s. military from mcnamara to all of the subsequent people and the i.m.f. functions basically is a little office out of the pentagon basement where the wiki leaks thing only confirms what people have been saying for the last fifty years of course who are going to the i.m.f. are tools of the state department or foreign policy the united states from the very

beginning insisted in having veto power over all i.m.f. and world bank decisions so that they could prevent any alone that was against us foreign policy that was built into the articles of agreement that's been the case since one thousand forty one and none of this is know. to perhaps the strangest story of the day sportswear giant reeboks latest ad campaign aims to celebrate women who have changed the world so far so good in russia though it features a prominent feminist and a slogan urging women to sit on men's faces at some refuse to turn the other cheek .

this is horrible it may be funny on twitter but out of context it makes me want to facepalm it's all hype and harmful nonsense because like this people have a problem with families. gender equality school reaching jugs of water through degrading one of the sites is not cool by the way on the money you can throw eggs at me. unfortunately after photos went public it became clear that some of the content is not appropriate to post on our official accounts due to social media age restrictions. and surprised that traffic jams like this by the path of pop that the one now on carrots in this case everybody scream and murder it just from there i. am dang philosophize this reaction real man how scared of gender equality do you

have to be to get so angry about it. face not being the best choice of words in this context i have to say it's certainly creating a lot of amusement to the west now if reeboks advertising is looking for. the last word it's got it. let's not kid ourselves advertising is not meant to educate people i do ties it is meant to sell products it may integrate shall we say or incorporate into its advertising message all. find approval from people but basically at the end of it will they interested in moving products up show. parents in the u.k. or pulling their children of primary school over classes on same sex relations we are going to a bit deeper into that after this. i've

been saying the numbers mean something they've mater the us is over twenty trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth he longs to the ultra rich eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred trade 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 in one one business shows you know quarter to miss one and only boom but.

join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest on the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. just approaching one thousand minutes into the program welcome back the much vaulted british values of multiculturalism tolerance there on a collision course a teacher held a predominantly muslim primary school in birmingham sees he's being receiving threats for teaching pupils about same sex relationships his initiative has seen some parents pull their children fact out of school in protest looking at the controversy has polly pocket. what happens if you fundamentally disagree with something your kids are being taught at school it's

a question that some of the parents of peoples at this birmingham school have been confronted with money lula hopes are another cyclone both of them moment ago some tissues on the white them back andrew more fat is an award winning deputy head teacher he is with the queen he's been shortlisted for the world's best teacher ward for developing a diversity program the no outsiders program involves talking about relationships and highlighting the community in other words telling children so much younger than eleven that it's ok to be gay it's something that i'm good some of the parents whose kids are at the school is not for the only appeared for the deception kids. who want to homosexuality they should learn about yeah to old age not right now because they can easily get your parents did teach you kids you know need to stay with boys and boys who think that's not a good thing this was

a quality leader with a like it's equality act obviously it clearly says you can't discriminate against religion and whatnot and that's what they're doing it's ninety nine percent muslim it's not about being muslim the the jewish community the other communities the christian communities they're all have issues around the way things are being done some four hundred. parents have signed a petition calling on the school to stop the no outsiders program and earlier this week the route between school and parents escalated to this. the. fact. that this area of birmingham is predominantly muslim and being gay is forbidden in islam the school's reading

program uses books about l. g.b.t. issues this one is a story about a family with two mums another a fairy tale about a prince falling in love with another prince the parents may not like it but the government's own watchdog has classified this school outstanding as the top model a school can get and much of the praises for the way the children here are taught about the ukase equality laws which could be why the school says it will not bow to parents pressure deputy head andrew marr fat who's openly gay himself had to resign from a previous job after a similar route with christian parents at his former school despite the controversy the teacher says his diversity program is not going away we have to ensure we safeguard and protect them from all possible forms of harm including homophobic or transgender bullying we have no plans to change their curriculum and no outsiders

remains an entire group part of the drive for excellence in light of this some parents of chosen to remove their kids from the school and opted to pay for private tuition this is around about a small school but is exposed a big clash between a religious community and the diversity that's part and parcel. modern day. the chinese telecoms titan while way looks set to undergo further scrutiny in the coming weeks america's top diplomat is heading to central europe on monday and is expected to issue a warning to washington's allies over the company's growing presence in the region while way though is stridently pushing back against the claims that it poses a security threat to the west. recently who always been under constant attack by some countries and politicians we show will sometimes feel amused by those ungrounded and senseless allegations well we are hearing such words as ungrounded in senseless from kwok we officials as the u.s.

is pushing its accusations chinese telecom from kwok way slammed the united states after receiving another blow in the five g. race they feel shocked in a muse of how the u.s. is lobbying european governments against the firm the united states' envoy in the european union has been threatening its western allies that if the hughes chinese equipment in any of their major infrastructure projects there will be no disadvantage when dealing with the u.s. and would also face consequences the chinese firm has been receiving a lot of pressure by western regulators and lawmakers of its involvement in the next generation mobile network with officials blindly accusing china of interference without any proof someone from the politburo in beijing picks up the phone and says i want to listen in on the following conversation i want to run a certain car off the road that's on the five g. network and kill the person who's in it there's nothing that the company legally can do today in china to prevent the chinese government from making that request

successfully walkway has come under fire by the united states which accuses the company of working closely with the chinese state unintelligent gathering but trust but no proof is actually the chinese state's longhand just last month the u.s. filed to criminal charges accusing coffee of stealing trade secrets. and skirting u.s. sanctions on iran but again no proof and when they were asked directly whether they have any evidence to prove their accusations the u.s. were poorly respond by saying well it's china it's simply one party state and it seems that the u.s. could have not chosen a better time to actually do this european union eight nations are reviewing new sanctions against companies or could. trees and cyber espionage and intellectual property theft as all this is happening according to government officials. government ruled out possibility of banning chinese equipment supplier as germany

is moving forward towards building its fifth generation network and it's not only that germany is considering they believe that if they follow washington stance on it it will this will be harmful for their economy and it's not only germany was looking closely at the hallway it's italy as well it is in the sri minister denied a report that italy will ban we from playing a role and building a five g. network but what the u.s. does not understand is that europe and we have much closer relationship than what they actually think. just market the company has invested billions of euros in digital sectors and has been working closely with some of the cult and its main telecom operators such as telecom bt orange and others and as the us president of ministration is pushing for a blanket ban on chinese telecom companies from the new five g. networks. as on the horns of the lemma.
