was. the to play. was. more fury in strongs tens of thousands of yellow vest activists turnout for fourteen straight weeks ahead of anti-government protests with clashes erupting in the capital this weekend marks three months into the protest movement began also at . haiti's gripped by civil unrest with thousands of protesters flooding the streets of the caribbean nations titles are they calling on the president to step down over

claims of corruption and economic mismanagement. fourteen h.i.b. positive children are expelled from a school in indonesia the insistence of downgrades to parents we speak to some of those who were really. good. with the top stories from the past seven days and right up to the moment developments as well this is the weekly on aussie international hello and welcome to our top story yellow vest demonstrations are again taking over the streets in paris this sunday against what people are calling for willing living standards this weekend marks three months since their protest campaign began with saturday seeing

over forty thousand turned out nationwide to vent the president across policies. but then they make. good wishes between activists some police broke out in a number of cities including longtime live on the protests empowers also descends into violence by late off of the charges as he was that throughout the day for us. i. think. we should the protesters start throwing items towards peaceful really go have to move a little bit further on because i guess it is narrow. coming across this. and it's really not very nice very difficult to talk stories or when the gas hits you but it just comes out like planes and it's one of the methods

they used to trying to suppress the protesters these protests now have been going on for three months they have been incredibly violent at times we have seen the police also using huge amount of force against these protests as you were because somebody had being moved injured not clear what that person's injuries are put receiving medical attention now as a result of that and that is just one of the thousands of injuries you see not just from the protest is right but also the police themselves. as you can see out the anger are is creeping up here quite dramatically on the streets of paris processors that now are pushing over one of those pins that you normally i close a lot of them picking up those portable assumingly with the aim of throwing it they go towards the police he see that tear gas now coming down to one just by the

police coming in and taking over i am just looking right now trying to apprehend some of those individuals who may have been throwing those grass portals like glass bottles now coming in the direction where we are. you might just be able to see in the distance that we've got protesters who are throwing would appear to be wrong towards if you just turn the camera around towards this line of security forces over here this is being a pretty much a cat and game cats and nice game going on between the two with the police responding then with take as you might just see a couple more of those rocks landing there towards the police forces. as the coming the protesters here thousands of them we've got some me who's burning an e.u. flag right in front of us here many of these illusions don't like the european union either but those rocks now projectiles being thrown quite forcibly against

the police and you can see no other. thing into would just with what looks like tear gas pellets going off by that gas already coming in pretty quickly. so we've just got to try and move away from it was it really just pick out your throats in your eyes. you see people coughing. as a result of that to go. through all. the force. is really pretty nasty when it gets into your story this is now back to fourteen thousands of people came out to paris many people had thought that this pops be the last. saturday protest of the shalit jones but this is

a movement that's been going on now for three months and they have absolutely no intention of finishing it shows that you can ski r.t. paris during the protests on saturday a number of yellow vests were filmed hurling projectiles us a police van. well you know there was a. video was posted online by a french police union to illustrate the talent is facing officers were joined by a police representative to discuss the violent elements. i have colleagues who work throughout the weekends during the week i have to perform extra duty the police are exhausted and can't take it anymore because the working conditions are inhuman on the one hand we have to be in place to guarantee the security of the rallies on the other hand we are public servants and have to be

friendly even if you are tired you have to go on duty due to exhaustion we could easily make a mistake. it's estimated that around three thousand people have been wounded since the yellow vest protests began some have suffered life changing injuries earlier this week we spoke to fear rené linea who was hit in the head with a stun grenade in december she says she could lose the sight in one eye his fear in a story. it was his whole career is a policeman a call to work every saturday i understand that they're tired but fatigue is not an excuse for everything especially for leaving people without ice hooligans were on the road and i was on the left who explained to me why the policeman fired in my to berkshire it is not normal france is one of the oldest democratic countries in the world it is not normal that this is happening here we were on the seans elisei it was comment first and there were very calm yellow vests around us then some who have been started vandalizing the shop on another side of the street trying to set

fire to it policeman started to shoot to help firefighters to get through and it was the last then that i remember because after that i fell and a grenade hit my head my eyes still in great pain and will be removed in the next operation talked to said it can be saved it is painful to touch it i can't move it and i can't read. haitian capital was also rocked by violence this week protesters in puerto problems are calling for an answer back on trees round and corruption and decrying the government's failure to tackle grinding poverty. some of the protesters have also been voicing their contempt for washington and its

apparent backing of the current president a number of videos have emerged should demonstrators burning the american flag the u.s. national security adviser met with the haitian foreign minister on friday to discuss the riots john bolton expressed washington's enduring support for the terror be a nation and calls for dialogue to resolve the crisis well the u.s. state department won't this is what is citizens against traveling to haiti. similar antigovernment protests continue to say glenn is way low while the u.s. was quick to throw its weight behind the opposition that is taking us some want a different approach to tacey any strength and looks at the fine line that makes the elected leader just. protests are turning deadly. the crowd wants to president to get the hell out of his office. because

they loathe his government for corruption for all kinds of cheating at the election . but enough that i thought the nation is not just poor it's starving. rich people in the country are going to go. through. the mess because they see that you. can do something 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 in 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 the haitian people deserve to have democratically elected leaders today's inauguration of a democratically elected president and allows haiti to return to democratic and constitutional rule show what do you do with that kind of rapprochement show that you're a big fan of the man in charge there president trump and i own two. an old and entrepreneur ones is results and therefore i hope to put everything in place to make sure we deliver for our peoples but could such words of warmth ever end up turning into something like this how. venice. on a true. venice and the trump government is not going to side with the haitian people because they need that haitian government for its project of overthrowing

the venezuelan government so back to news from haiti 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 picking 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 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 mike pence not a word from pump aoe the secretary of state not a word from donald trump so business double standard this hypocrisy is typical we can say u.s. foreign policy and venezuela neighbors on the map but it looks like they're nowhere near each other in the minds of those gurus of real democracy. washington's push to overthrow the socialist government in caracas is being spearheaded by elliot abrams the new u.s. special envoy to venezuela his appointment has been criticized in parts because of a dubious track record in latin america in the one nine hundred eighty s. he was involved in selling arms to iran and funneling the profits to anti communist rebels waiting a brutal insurgency in nicaragua he was subsequently handed to convictions for

misleading congress about the then in two thousand and two abrams was accused of attempting to orchestrate sick to work against hugo chavez in venezuela on wednesday in a session that was interrupted several times by antiwar activists say poems faced intense questioning in front of the house foreign affairs committee about his suitability for the role of a special envoy would you support an armed faction within venezuela that engages in work rhymes as you did in guatemala el salvador and nicaragua i am not going to respond to that kind of personal attack which is not a question you feel that your parents actions in iran contra permanently impair your ability to fairly and transparently deal in the region my question is whether you're aware of any transfers of weapons or defense equipment by the united states government to groups of venezuela i ask this question because you have

a record of such actions nine hundred ninety one you pleaded guilty to two counts of withholding information from congress regarding your involvement in the iran courtroom affair i fail to understand why members of this committee or the american people should find any testimony that you give today to be truthful i don't think this entire line of questioning is meant to be real questions and so i will not reply. at the same time the u.s. is starting to send emergency aid to venezuela essentials like food and medicine have already been delivered to the colombian buda but president do you wrote has refused to allow us into his country claiming that it's a cover for the transit of weapons and to a u.s. military intervention we heard from journalist max blumenthal these days the appointment of abrams points to eight being a possible cover up for

a late invasion 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. when he's coming up after this very short break stay with us.

so. what politicians do something. to put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to express interest. you somehow want to be rich. that you'd like to be close to what the flag. people. interested in the why. there should be a. welcome

back now school in indonesia has box control of the sea off to expelling fourteen h.i.v. positive children it reportedly took the decision following complaints from the parents of their close mates we heard from some of the youngsters who were moved.

parents strongly objected to the fourteen children so tandems because they are h.i.v. positive we tried to. follow in their protests we took the children out of the school and now we're helping to find a new school for them. if they think of the exits the so-called i think i.

think it's a book of six. well also spoke to the head of an ngo that helps indonesian children infected with hiv. and for almost a week these children have been staying home and not going to school they're very upset about it and really want to play with other kids again they keep asking me when they'll be allowed to go back i think children should be treated equally they should all have the right to go to school and these children have faced so many obstacles since entering school after kindergarten it's become the norm but we will stay strong i think there is no need to hide the location of the next school for these children if we are open it will be easier to explain to the public that their disease is in their body and will not easily spread to others.

violence against farmers in south africa is on the rise new government figures so that the number of attacks is sought up by fifteen percent in the past two years the vast majority being black on white crime we spoke to a number of people who have been assaulted. i think clearly you see closely interlinked in the conspiracy time so much interest in the game to go out to the field and to think that this is we still like you know what i slips like from the top and other scratch guy. around my neck and how to come to my age. not. as i went down the great we've gone but he produced the stick. closer to the city shortly than you first only she will continue to come to the newsboy. been

a wide genocide or a crime against humanity but it is a serious crisis and there are signs that it is only going to get wars we are on record as is dismissing the what the white genocide narrative of it. it does not exist spence that being said. you you do get into it into issues of what of what motivates these crimes and an argument could be made that in certain instances. the reckless richest racial rhetoric may be a contributing factor once again these awards expresses possibilities commercial farmers. tend to be disproportionately white although. you know i think it's it's it's very important you know you can see solutions you know to become trapped in that racial prison we are aware of instances where we're. black people being attacked and also i think it must be pointed out that that part of the whole form

issue that has happened almost every family has affected our society on the other hand the economic and social impact of sanctions affected people including those who are not interested in political issues caused me to show a symbolic protest it was not something like a legal complaint or anything else. if you'd like to comment on any of our stories then to get in touch by following us on social media or the back of the top of the hour the latest see there. country's gone into a nihilistic fever that's why i think. the road and get out the traveling across america to find what makes america take the charlatans the genius to this is the quintessential american hero this is it we've come a point around which element is done something we always are on the margins something. called the culture has meaning for you. ah.
