i'm going to. protest in the haitian capital against economic hardship and embezzlement but there's been no reaction from washington unlike to similar threats in venezuela just across the caribbean sea. french police open

a probe anti semitic graffiti appears on a paris shop window with some quickly blaming it on yellow vests protesters. plus the u.s. ambassador says germany should use quote its leverage to keep the kremlin in line but germans themselves it seems remain unimpressed. is the politics of provocation and the people themselves get along well but the good titian sometimes fail turf like this. it is to stay forever the twelve and just off the eight am here in moscow from all of us across the international welcome to your news so thousands have protested in the haitian capital against economic hardship and embezzlement. government

demonstrators are demanding that the president of the caribbean island nation step down violence looting and clashes with police have been seen over the last five days of protest which have also seen four people die. now just across the caribbean sea venezuela is also seeing opposition protests with some fifty countries now backing the self-proclaimed interim president won. the u.s. house sanction the country's main source of revenue that being oil in a bid to force my daughter out of office the protests in haiti though have received a very different kind of reaction from washington as the experience protests are turning deadly. crowd

once the president to get the hell out of his office. the next day. they lower his government for corruption for all kinds of cheating at the election . but the nation is not just poor it's starving. but i'm not talking about venezuela last week haiti began to boil. people wonder country running. everything the massive population. continues to be like a bit of polling from the poorest country in the caribbean the last presidential election had to be rerun after claims of fraud. but the follow up which put

president more ease and power wasn't exactly a model of democracy the turnout was only a fifth every tenth ballot sheet was never counted for different reasons and some cases that would be more than enough to set off what i call the legitimacy radar alarm and washington not this time trump sent his people to congratulate the new leader his diplomat said they were proud of haiti today so you know gratian of a democratically elected president and to return to democratic constitutional rule so what do you do with that kind of rapprochement show that you're a big fan of the man in charge there president trump an iowan to put an old and entrepreneur ones its results and therefore i hope to put everything in place to make sure we deliver from peoples but could such words of warmth ever end up turning into something like this on a true. venice so back to news from haiti people have

essentially said it is over their job no movies but the drum government is not going to side with any should be able because they need that haitian government for its project of overthrowing the venezuelan government so this explains this. great irony several days of protests put the capital on the brink of chaos a furious haitians are on the edge a group of you when powers including america came up with the communique i.e. condemnation of the escalating violence they want the president to speed up reforms well the only thing that came out of the state department in four days was this travel security alert haiti security alert the security situation remains very unstable if you hear gunfire or protest groups seek shelter inside your house immediately and stay away from the windows and no one's yet to. being

a substitute for the elected leader but of course this relative silence isn't simply about someone saying nice things about donald trump but this is the nature of we can say american power in the world today it is filled with hypocrisy now we look at the case of venezuela and haiti on no one here and the venezuelan government fighting for its life because of this sanctions that the u.s. is putting on the country and yet in haiti it is the vast majority of the population which is turning out to demand a job no mo uses a departure and yet not a word from my parents not a word from pump aoe the secretary of state not a word from donald trump so this double standard this hypocrisy is typical we can say us foreign policy. and then as well our neighbors on the map but it looks like they're nowhere near each other in the minds of those gurus of real

democracy all the opposition and the government in venezuela currently wrangling over a us a necklace my daughter has blocked all shipments branding the convoys a pretext for a u.s. invasion of one why dole insists some deliveries are crossing the border and with food shortages in venezuela the ongoing hyperinflation and also the u.s. sanctions on venezuelan oil the media is portraying my daughter oh as a tyrant inflicting suffering on his people i'm in a swell inside trucks and troops are blocking traffic in and out of the country my daughter blocks aboard a bridge where eighty set to arrive ordering troops to block the bridge. to block the border as a whole has blocked a bridge on the bridge we just saw connects colombia and venezuela and was built in twenty fifteen but has never actually seen any traffic since it was never officially opened. that's due to

a dispute between the two neighboring countries both the united nations and the international red cross a humanitarian aid should not be politicized well we spoke to max blumenthal the editor of the investigative journalism project gray zone who is currently in the venezuelan capital the problem is speculation and hyper inflation which makes it hard for some people at certain lower classes to buy food and that hyperinflation is being compounded by unprecedented u.s. sanctions that the reason that the u.s. and western media is focusing. of the trump administration on the humanitarian aid is to frame to create an interventionist frame to create a pretext where the maduro government first of all seems cruel and stingy and will not allow aid in which will actually have no effect on people's food insecurity and second of all to allow this intervention to take place or washington's efforts in the south american country are led by elliott abrams he was recently appointed u.s.

special envoy to venezuela that we previously held the position of assistant secretary of state for human rights and humanitarian affairs it's alleged he was involved in a coup attempt in venezuela in two thousand and two and he's also been accused of shipping weapons to nicaragua rebels under the guise of humanitarian aid this was back in the nineteen eighties. assistant secretary of state elliott abrams has defended his role in authorizing the shipment of weapons on a humanitarian aid flight to nicaraguan rebels saying the operation was strictly by the book. we have to consider that trumps are who is in charge of his venezuelan policy right now is elliot abrams who pioneered the strategy of using humanitarian aid as a disguise for delivering weapons to u.s. proxy forces first during the. wars and central america the proxy wars during which elliott abrams was overseeing several death squads and their genocidal humanitarian

violations the venezuelan see this aid delivery especially in the in the light of abrams history of using aid as a cover for delivering arms to proxy forces as a violation of venezuelan sovereignty as an actual us invasion of venezuela and so in many ways this is seen as a trojan horse for u.s. invasion he remains staunch in its support of the self declared leader. and with washington piling the pressure on nicolas maduro a failure all the lights during one of his recent speeches proved easy to. find. it's.

back to work right now rebuilding about. zero. in our intelligence agencies if they just turned over to the intelligence agencies. there ok yes ok. french police are investigating graffiti that appeared on the window a very jewish bagel shop in paris however someone quick to point the finger at yellow press protesters and shot a duplicate reports. outrage after yet another until some magic attack in paris the latest was in the fourth decent of the city the german wood for jews juden was sprayed across this bagel shop near the old jewish quarter anti

semitism indignation anger after yesterday's discovery of a vial and semitic tag on the window of a bagel stein shop and x. that recalls the darkest hours of history the anti semitic graffiti was discovered at the weekend many have likened it to the anti semitic inscriptions that were targeting jewish businesses in germany in the one nine hundred thirty s. and some have already decided who the culprit is today in the streets of paris the work you'd jus' was printed on the window of a beggar restaurant this act thirteen by the yellow vests has precedence attacks against institutions and thai semitic acts how far will it go. act thirteen youden in paris act twelve insults in front of a synagogue in strasbourg act nine the anti semite ricin in the yellow vest everywhere the same thing is happening and it's

a tragedy it's not the first time that the yellow vests have been accused of anti semitism during the six weeks of protests known as act six a series of anti semitic incidents were reported including a group of protesters singing a song popularized by an anti semitic comedian another group was accused of insulting in auschwitz survivor on the metro so what have the yellow vests themselves got to say about it. the yellow vests are not racists they are peaceful they believe in the republic they are peaceful tolerant and want to live better in their country it's possible that among the yellow vests there are some crazies and racists that's no different than the rest of french society the goal of the government is to tarnish the yellow vests first they try to a den of fire yellow vests with hooligans but that didn't work we took to the streets of the capital to find out who locals think are responsible when it's

mostly likely minus lee i don't know if there is any connection to the el of the us it's easy to just blame everything on them there is just a lot of anti-semitism in friends and in other countries. i don't know i don't think is the yellow versatile it's not something they want to be connected to i think this is just racism. it's shocking for me and for a lot of people is the media talking about it all the time but i don't understand how that could happen. it is disgusting even the moment and then i thought we would in france. however the restaurant owners have dismissed the link same incident probably occurred several hours before the yellow vests protest this does though come at a time when anti semitism in france has been reassuring its head last november the french prime minister said anti semitic acts in france have increased by sixty nine percent in the first nine months of two thousand and eighteen well the government

has promised to crack down on this anti semitic attacks it's clear that some have decided to wrongly jump on the bandwagon and blame the yellow vests at least when it comes to this latest incident do you can ski r.t. paris earlier we spoke with our brussels based journalist who says at the end of the day the yellow vests of simply become easy scapegoats but it was painted in yellow so what so it might be a provocation it might but let's not even go into that enormous you for all the. president a chairman of the of us simply in us or another national assembly the parliament is so fair horse house secondary precedence it's been burnt i mean somebody set fire to it immediately your reaction was it's just a yellow fests nothing to do with and to semitism nobody knows if it is a hell of a stupid there are some people are not too clever say stupid things that are probably some and some might something but the movement in the self has nothing to

do with these extreme opinions sent stupid opinions i think the government of course it's fighting the sun is very much afraid of them so. anything that goes wrong it's to yellow fests. the u.s. ambassador to germany has called for nato to be strengthened because as he puts it russia's on the doorstep the majority of germans though seem rather unimpressed by the attitude as peter all of a picks up the story washington's man in berlin ambassador richard grinnell is being handing out advice left and right to chancellor angela merkel over which direction she should steer her country in the latest polls of wisdom that she should spend more money on weapons and that germany should use its energy connections with russia to put pressure on moscow the germans have the leverage with russia imagine if chancellor merkel stood up and said because of the russian behavior because of the malign activity and the increased offense we cannot give

you more influence by buying your energy stream to his top of the u.s. hit list when it comes to joint german russian projects that the u.s. isn't keen on with washington saying it doesn't want to become too dependent on moscow and busted a goodell also expressed disappointment with germany's military spending saying that commitments made to nato needed to be all that the u.s. is simply reminding its great german allies that now is not the time to undercut or weaken nato with the russians at the doorstep it should be clear to everyone that nato needs strengthening this isn't the first time though that the us ambassador has handed out some quite of diplomatic advice. in german companies doing business in iran should wind down operations immediately

never tell a host country what to do. and we are not to bite on that a public. i'm except one sided tightening of. the german people have taken a dim view of u.s. policy in these areas the latest polling shows eighty five percent of germans view the transatlantic relationship in a negative or even a very negative light with the majority saying they want to germany to give the u.s. a wider berth if we look at where german saw potential threats coming from less than two percent said russia right wing populism and protectionism was named as the biggest concern for germans i asked people in berlin why this view on u.s.

german relations she listened to mend the relationship is difficult right now because the world has become more tense due to the traumas policies is the politics of provocation by the older generation has tremendous respect and gratitude towards the u.s. but some of it has been lost lately due to u.s. foreign policy. the people themselves to get along while the debilitation sometimes fail turf like this they're having problems as an american president i think washington's hardline approach to it. doesn't seem to be going down too well with the german people. when i stop and if you're still coming your way this hour here on r.t. including a state of emergency is declared off very remote russian village is invaded by polar bears details and.

politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president injury. some want to be rich. to do like to be crooks this is like the before three in the morning can't be good . i'm interested always in the water using the. same wrong. just don't hold. me. to shape out of this day. and in. the trail. find themselves worlds apart. she still looks for common ground.

geysers financial survival guide. without. yanks this is what happens to pensions in britain. as a report. thanks for joining us are not international so far it seems that race issues are far from the headlines these days that's also true at yale university after a student published a column in the campus newspaper in it she suggests keeping a record of racist and sexist behavior by white males for possible use later on. everyone knows a why boy with shiny brown hair and a saccharine smile that conceals his great ambitions one day i'll turn on the

television and i'll see him sitting down for his senate confirmation hearing i'll recall a message that he accidentally left open on a computer where he linked a woman's body to a particularly large animal i'll kick myself for forgetting to screenshot the evidence i can plant things led by i'm watching you white boy and this time i am taking this screen shot what kind of a hates you has yelled become this is not progress is juvenile and malicious pany shoes yellow paper prints race is guided how to destroy widebody life like kava no this article proves two things first it's the left and the democrat party and its members that are racist and second if you go to you you have more stupid than when you entered as you can see the article sparked some controversy online without any accusing the author of hate speech and double standards i says davis mocks the author of this piece entitled evil is by now is

a senior jonathan edwards college a few studies philosophy and writes a regular column for yale daily news and she's already published other controversial articles in the past including one called white noise about alleged disrespect for the minorities in the news industry debates over political correctness at yale university have been ongoing for a while now twenty fifteen it's controversy of a supposedly culturally insensitive halloween costumes and yet later it introduced gender neutral bathrooms and last year its students joined the protest movement against the nomination of brett covenant to the supreme court made allegations against him of sexual misconduct. i here are not international we put the coal for surveillance of young white males up for debate with a panel of analysts. think that the hate of white people right now is being so normalized on on educational campuses and the anywhere in the media and it's become so much to the point where if someone did this the opposite way if it was white

vice versa if a white wrote this about some other people then he would get the insane amount of backlash and it would be much worse than if this person this woman wrote this about white men and i have to say that it isn't the surveillance that is scary it's the fact that it didn't imitating their creating a system that intimidates white men and pushes them down and makes them look over their shoulders and makes them worry and that is the tactic of a totalitarian state and they seem to not be able to wait until they can inflict a want to bonnets and the mainstream media has has this this label on white men and even white people in general on college campuses i'm in jobs even at restaurants i'm clearly college student right now and i see this as this this whole i guess clay coming to everyone's minds thinking that white people are bad white people she claims for their ancestors problems you know that shouldn't be happening and i'm not sure whether this marks an occasion of desperation for leftism or opportunities

a sense of blooming opportunity or maybe both if you're not really on the left unless you're a victim and in order to be a victim you have to have an oppressor and they appeared to have settled all the different causes all the different angles or less doesn't appear to have settled on white males for racism sexism bigotry and homophobia and that is the great evil of america and we are going to be made to pay for that one way or another even if we're innocent and of course most of us are. the taliban's rejected an offer from the afghan government to have an official office in the country saying they want that cut out office to be officially recognized. adamant about having an official political office is clear we want our office in doha to be recognized by the international community and the united nations with this proposal garny is trying to change the topic and harm the ongoing peace efforts. earlier the afghan

president to ashraf ghani accepted a taliban demand that have off an official office in a major city but only offered afghan cities not its doha base taliban officials highlighted the importance of formal office having a formal office during intra afghan talks held in moscow last week and the results of the negotiations were described by its participants at the time as satisfactory the deputy director of the center for conflict and peace studies a heck of a tool as army says ghani made his offer only because he feels sidelined from the peace talks. a lot of people argue that you know in the peace process president arnie's is the obstacle americans and taliban are meeting in doha such statements. are made to prove that. look the government is not a problem and we are willing to talk to the afghan taliban and host them and offer them an office the end of the day president danny's garment is it's quite under

pressure for not going for not for not willing to cooperate in the peace process while the taliban continue to refuse to meet him so i think these moves come after all these to address these concerns so there he's trying to become part of the peace initiative and become in play a role not been sidelined. for now to northern russia where a state of emergency has been declared after an invasion of poland bads authorities say that over the last few weeks of polar bears have been coming into town perhaps through rubbish and even looking for food for example a video shows one bare looking around the whole of an apartment block passing by that baby stroller there at the emergency services say that the usual methods of scaring animals away using sirens horns and dogs just not working and with ortiz

have sent out anti bear patrols and built special barriers around schools though as we understand no major attacks no deaths reported. i know news returns and half.

the country has gone into a nihilistic fever best plan to thank god it hit the road and get out the traveling across america to find what makes america the schalit is the genius of this place especially american hero this is it we've come a point about how much ultimate is done so we always are on the brightest in this whole gun culture is really important because. we're 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 doesn't get any more gonzo than a it may be completely different but the end of this jet. ski. what politicians do sometimes. they put themselves on the line and they did accept the reject. so when you want to be president i'm sure. some one of.

the two going to be the first to say what the full story of the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of our. first sit. i think that if when no in the literally the day in the cell the nimoy is holding on decay you'll be able to sing but it can kill. a last scene but the counselors represent.
