worsening the country's opposition leader says he's not ruled dard calling for a buras military intervention to overthrow president much of. syria's devastating eight year long conflict begins to draw to a close sarti looks up the trauma suffered by the country's. live from moscow with the review of the past seven days this is the weekly here in r.t. international i mean in. our top story france has been rocked by a thirteenth straight weekend of yellow vest protests with clashes again breaking out between demonstrators and police in the. but all one person and part of their

house blown off by a crowd control grenade artie's ripley video agency record of the aftermath please be warned some of the images are graphic. you. know was the. tsunami of the national assembly and people were trying to force their way in the police arrived and threw grenades one hit the guy's leg and he tried to push it away with his hands as a reflex reaction and the grenade went off on our sister channel r.t. france spoke with the father of the protester who lost his son. on our susan we stayed in the hospital and to late night to find out what's going to happen with him he's lost everything from the wrist down then we met the ophthalmologist to

talk about his eye he's only wasn't affected too much there's some superficial wounding but his hand is gone we'll file a complaint and then see what happens in his non does on a sunday and yesterday sebastian basically lost his hand in front of the national assembly he's crippled and he's a plumber he needs his hand to deal with basic daily stuff he's lost and because i don't know if you understand how symbolic it is but sebastian lost his hand in front of the national assembly the house of the people and the government hasn't said a word they are concerned about the fact that the house of mr feraud the president of the national assembly was burned but is just material resources while in front of the second residency of mr for iran the president of the national assembly a person has lost his hand although they are still tech just mention their own the home of the head of the national assembly wasn't directly linked to protestors similar tactics were used on saturday. several cars set on fire the yellow vest

rallies began last november over rising living costs and quickly morphed into a broader antigovernment protests campaign authorities estimate that more than fifty thousand people rallied nationwide on saturday the fires the importance. of so what has the government done to try and stem these protests well president michael gave a big speech back in december where he announced that the minimum wage the cynic would rise by a hundred jews a month he also said that people doing businesses for the n.b.a. they wouldn't have to pay social contributions and that a new 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 add a 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 office 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 isn't 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 bossing rules that limit our rights so we have collectively decided 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 was the mention there of the law to limit right so what these relations are referring. that is what's

known as the anti who can know 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 protest if they deem to be a public threat also part of them is the idea that if you cover your face going into a protest even with a simple scoff 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 so i'm against islam because where is the proof that these are real hooligans the government can choose who's a hooligan who's not going to support this law is against the marches it's to stop people rally and to scare people. to sort of this war against the rioters crazed

question i find it a bit appalling i guess it's a complicated issue will they detain the real rioters that's the real question or will they just pick up any you know a vast 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 tomorrow they cannot cover their face because police fired tear gas at them what type of democracy is this is this bill could go 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 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. to south america now where venice will is self proclaimed interim leader one why do as blame the country's ongoing crisis

on the vanity of them a dural government mr quiet spoke exclusively to r.t. your short extract from that interview. i mean is there anything on. millions of in the skips supporting nicolas maduro how are you planning to win them over let them hear is out all we want is to be heard and for our plan for the country's restoration to be heard a future we're building together i've told you that recently just a few days ago we had a meeting with ministers who worked on the chavez not the child us today youth function members of a student movement were in attendance to let them heroes now let them hear is in the future but politics is notoriously full of good intentions what if you fail to make good on your promises to politics and life first and foremost it's about being attentive and then you can come good on those deeds actions on the delivery of humanitarian aid the protection of our assets the protection of our citizens the protection of newborn babies who should not have died in and so it's a key

a few days ago because of the vanity of some people and there are only a few of them who don't even recognize this is a crisis which is recognized by the u.n. and many other organizations also this week we spoke to venice where less president nicolas maduro he pledged to resist washington's push for regime change you can watch that full interview at r.t. dot com. there will be no war or military intervention here then as well about it doesn't mean that we shouldn't get ready to fight for our land use every media outlet to urge the entire world heads of state heads of government or world leaders social movements and the international community to denounce the absurd steps donald trump is taking against venezuela and to stop him threaten us with a military intervention in venezuela has not surrender and never will what's donald trump sconces belly dance venezuela what is it do we have w m d s are we

a threat to u.s. national security you know what the cost is bally's here then is a well an oil and as well as resources natural gas diamonds or water. our material well. the twenty first century and he's not the time for cannon fire and military threats know the twenty first century should be a century of dialogue civilized behavior politics respect for guy versus peace peaceful coexistence and finding peaceful diplomatic solutions to international conflicts dileep is the most important thing for venezuela it is a remark to. well most western countries now recognize one wind chill is an interim leader of us with but until recently he was an almost unknown figure in the. sudden rise to prominence they've made him the new interim president but haven't learned how to say his name. in a present one go you know one guido ok mr pompei oh my i have issues with spanish

so you know. we don't like what you don't know it's probably not about the language it's just that a little while ago very few people knew who. was even in men as well as i had never heard that name before the first time i had about him was in social media when he declared himself president. just recently supposedly he's the other president of venezuela which honestly think is a joke. whichever way during the first time i heard about why go it was two years ago. i don't own the short while ago and when this political situation started. for those abroad who loathed nicolas maduro there's an easier last name to say if you've never heard of low poll the lobos some very important people will definitely

have. venezuela should allow lippold a lot as a political prisoner and husband of toting out of prison immediately this man's political ambitions have arranged for a mayor of caracas to the president's office his wife has made friends with world leaders as if she was part of let's say the g. twenty herself so why do we keep on hearing we've recognized why and why go as the new president instead of we've recognized hold a low because first of all he's now under house arrest after being in all kinds of trouble with law enforcement but even his wife says that doesn't stop him from pulling the strings at home he works with all of the opposition everyone he speaks with her ongoing who is now president and all of the members of popular will and members of all the parties the big ones and the little ones he's taking charge of uniting the opposition why dose says they're always in contact and always see eye to eye while even the american media is hinting mr why do could just be

a pawn in someone else's hand according to the opposition party though he makes his own decisions your polo has been imprisoned for almost five years now so communication with him it's very difficult we have to stick with him so he's funny so i mean basically he gives ideas the decisions are being made by one and the rest of the. perhaps for those who are trying to overthrow a government because of how authoritarian and corrupt it is admitting the whole show is being run by someone who could be a full on state department puppet is kind of dodgy we can leaks has spilled the beans on exchanges between us diplomats with step by step descriptions of how leopoldo lopez should rise to power by the way speaking of scandals lopez's wife was all over the news when a mountain of local cash worth sixty thousand bucks was found in her car. this

money is to pay for my grandma who is hundred years old and has been hospitalized three days she has no insurance and a country where it takes a suitcase full of all of our bills to buy a coffee no one out there protesting in the street has that kind of money so maybe someone like why and why do so without the awkward baggage is an easier sell. moving all in the according to the international charity unicef half of all young people in syria have grown up only knowing war with many suffering from severe post-traumatic stress as an r.t. crew has been meeting those children who spent their early years in areas controlled totally by extremist fighters the full program is on their website but you're some of it. even the most good as this would. lead to the. eclipse condemned the

mississippi. it's. not about any of not about oh i'm ok. and i'm going to fuck with. as i want to rather than having a cool and implementing name about having. a lot on hand never having to visit later. or what a set of tears as. she still must accept or not additional for. just a minute i value the house. no mom it's good but in the ocean a little bit in my head and then i got to stand in front of the little i didn't could see out how the value of value in it. show my actual foot in the vein of. that i'm not able to.

channel the sun on a santa janet on there never was one i don't need i want to be baba that one down fall foul of the trash overnight am trying to enforce them come from the facade a hand. i will say sure. good who up there comes to show. chauffeur. genesee and falun gong montanna. i adore you the war news of the war a war a smile swore the other little boy not boss what news you know how to.

yeah tough watch but important one night there is an unusual edition on donald trump's list of the big threats facing america in twenty nineteen find out what it is after the shortest of bricks. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or

rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to. have to go right to be close it's like the three of them all can't be good. interested always in the logs. six. minutes into the program welcome back niger in his highly anticipated states of the union address on tuesday that will trump outline some of the threats he believes america is facing among them illegal immigration terrorism and socialism and with income inequality continuing to grow in the u.s.

left wing ideas do appear to be on the rebound that's been reports. now those who watch donald trump state of the union address would have a hard time missing one particular moment the topic of socialism america will never be a socialist country. not mild words at all and it's not the first time the trump has raised the specter of socialism all nations of the world should resist socialism. and the misery that it brings to everyone. but the socialists they say that he's just afraid of their rising popularity i have thought it was fabulous because it shows that we've gotten under his skin and he has no vision for this country everything is about what he doesn't want everything is about the boogie man and they've got a point after all bernie sanders is one of the most popular politicians in the country but.

it's not only republicans that are fearing the rise of socialism you've also got the establishment in the blue corner concerned as now at this point a majority of democrats say that socialism is the way forward for america where we can say one of the things this is to ensure is that democratic socialism is the said in the party be ready to know. that disunity perhaps but. i do accept any characterization that the party presented by the republicans trump media going as far as printing guidelines on how to inoculate your children against the rising ideological danger.

so we decided to go out to the district here in new york that elected alexandria cacio cortez the rising star of democratic socialism and we decided to see how people here feel about the ideology that went pretty far in defining the twentieth century and why do you think people here voted for her by the vote of her because she was pretty she would have her because he's charismatic and i think they also voted for because of the change from the guy that was in it before who's very much liked embedded a lot of people are afraid to show up so i mean anything to rear away from what trump is doing i think to fill people feel more confident about what's going on you know trump recently said the usa will never be a socialist country do you agree with him. i guess so yeah i think he's right. i don't see that happening in the states being great now we know anything that comes out of his mouth is the complete opposite he's from brazil or world so if he says america will never be so it was going through i feel very good nor going to miracle

will become a socialist country for you afraid of socialism. will. to some extent year i don't think that would be appropriate for this country unless i don't know too much pot its size and i don't know if i could be afraid of it no no we also got a chance to speak with journalist dan was there dan can you tell me is socialism no longer a dirty word in american politics well it's a dirty word still in certain quarters but it's more acceptable now in other quarters and it was a few years ago master bernie sanders and. alexandria ocasio cortez now do you think it is possible that bernie sanders might run against trump there saying he's the most likely to be trump is it possible that we could get a trump versus sanders ticket in the upcoming election i think it's very possible i don't watch for that predictions but i think it's very possible yes and is that something the democratic party leadership is afraid of the thing they're at they're terrified of that i think that if that happens every democratic politician in the country would running for cover. as a member of sanders is not

a democrat just as trump is not really a republican so we'll have to have a non-democratic versus non republican and everyone in between just just hiding their head in the sand and try to forget gore was going on for a long time it seemed like the s word was almost profanity and we see the establishment trying to stoke up the same old fears once again however it seems like in twenty nineteen socialism is back on the table for debate came up and r.t. new york. hosting states russia's ambassador to the u.s. done with r.t. this week to speak about the stumbling blocks existing between the two countries as well as areas where their interests do a lot for close cooperation. i am if treaty is dealing with the security of european countries and the russian federation i know if is not good with the security of the united states for me it's clear if united states decides to deploy

. in europe it will be a crisis of security for european countries of course we will fine solution we will fine. but we know how much united states did to solve dairies issue in that region and we are a dear to cooperate together we are looking very attentively at the situation in this country because. such countries like tragical stand between is i was biggest. to their three germ and we see some. troops appeared on the border between alliance and going to stand and of course we are very much concern what is going on. we hardly appreciated all efforts and made by united states in these regards and we already took operate together to find

a solution how to from one side to dismantle nuclear program of north korea and at the same time to eastend sion and to ease sanctions against the government of north korea. i don't understand why russian from so why germany or other western countries have to be punished for these economic project it's not position of the russian federation but it is position of other west on the european countries who can see there that this project is very useful. there is nothing policy in the sight of this. project. ok do join me again after some more great program starting in moments for the news stories that shaped the past seven days this is r.t. international.

the bunch of us is revolution is screeching to a halt inflation and unemployment cause millions to leave venezuela world powers a lot over whether president maduro should stay but the real question is how should the country move on from its current crisis. the swarms of them so much. good news local was before. much of those who heard the preview or. seen him with the north we will. move. move.

move show you the snooper you have the liberal media to look for. more muslim also these girls will give you forms for go go go. go go to shows so look i do the same you want me to show the story should go. to starts to. get to me to fill it with a little mist they'd say look it is it's. just best not to test this to you it's a mash tow truck to stop the president and please control this project until it's. over your producers to post this for to snap them up when you look as good as the girls are with you swear your supporters to your machine station shouldn't feel you should cook door for one whose job is the.

country's gone into. nihilistic fever that's why i think. alex the traveling across america to find out what makes america take them to charlotte and that's the genius really this is the quintessential american hero this is it we found the point around which on what is going on sunday we always are on the margins something like this called the culture as a party the american model. where starting last with is going to headed east into the swamp we're going into the belly of the bee i think i want to leave now governor getting oregon's out of the earth we may be completely different but in the end of this journey.
