i don't see that seem to make them forget me or the. me as. brutal scenes mark a thirteenth weekend of yellow vests the demonstrations on the streets of parents. venezuela's self-proclaimed interim leader says he is not ruling out requesting a u.s. military intervention against president maduro. but i mean we would do everything
8:01 pm
possible once again this is obviously a very very controversial subject we would do what's necessary. a primary school in the u.k. draws the anger of parents for teaching children about same sex relationships and the right. not right now because once. again with the like you. if you want to teach a. broadcasting live or direct from our studios in moscow this is hard to international and trying times glad to have you with us. a thirteen consecutive weekend of yellow vest rallies in france has descended into horror one protester had part of his and blown off by crowd control grenade or video agency ruptly filmed the moments immediately afterwards and a bit of a. warning you may find the video distressing. was
8:02 pm
. 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 tea a 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 gilles
8:03 pm
asians who's actually photographing the event for the social movement actually had his hand blown off in a grenade. on me and 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 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 in. it in some method or another and also
8:04 pm
a thousand. 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 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 who over time
8:05 pm
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 president 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 protest is a 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 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 was the mention there of a law to limit right so what these relations are referring that series was. known
8:06 pm
as the anti hooligan or it was discussed 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 protests if they deem to be a public threat also part of the law 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 were discussed in the anti-riot bill bonde and mentioned with our guests they say it is unlikely to ease the stammer. 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 the and if
8:07 pm
tomorrow they cannot cover the face because police fired tear gas at them what type of democracy is that it is built could enable police to impeach people from going to demonstrations because there is a doubt that the 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 mt 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 is 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 swap violent should not demonstrate but you are not going to unser the merits
8:08 pm
of this demonstration which is pension which is that the government should consider the french and not the regulators and. venezuela's self-proclaimed leader has raised the stakes in the country's political crisis in an interview with the a.f.p. news agency one goh i dos said he does not rule out asking the united states to launch a military intervention against his rival president 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
8:09 pm
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 power to doctrine of overthrowing regimes and democratic systems that
8:10 pm
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. this is 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 to stress that humanitarian aid needs
8:11 pm
to stay non political race humanitarian aid can never be a political issue we cannot divided 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 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 proma door 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
8:12 pm
recognizing why do the national assembly in 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. the international monetary fund has launched talks with member states on whether to recognize. venezuelan president it follows reports that the self-proclaimed it leader was considering asking the global financial body for a bailout and 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 many of them including china russia and italy still recognize nicolas maduro as president of venezuela the last time venezuela

8:14 pm
analyst michael hudson believes there is 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 it's 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 and the i.m.f. are tools of the state department for foreign policy the united states from the very beginning insisted in having veto power over all i am out 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 five and none of this is you know parents in one u.k.
