we as a society realized that this is not working and we actually do something about. the. rioters towards vehicles on the venezuelan border with colombia and trying to break through military barricades the president maduro cut ties with the goats are accusing it of fueling the standoff over u.s. aid supplies. more than eleven thousand yellow vests purchased this flood the streets of france yet again for a fifteenth weekend of anti-government unrest. we

speak to a job and being evicted from the flats he's lived in the for almost a quarter of a century to make room for refugees. but. i cannot believe that i was seventy four year old pensioner. and suffer all these troubles even the one paying my rent while asylum seekers a getting it for free. for joining us this hour. now a confrontation is building up on the border between venezuela and colombia part of a checkpoint has been set on fire by rioters trying to break through military barricades so that aid trucks pass through colombian officials are saying two hundred eighty five people have been injured just in the past. for hours venezuela

media they are quoting much lower figures and president maduro has responded by cutting political ties with will go to and expelling diplomats. not pull the most or you so we can continue supporting aggression from colombian territory so i've decided to cut all political and diplomatic ties with the fascist colombian government and the ambassadors must leave in twenty four hours. to protect the lives and well being of colombian public servants they return to colombia will be organized as soon as possible unlike europe. and the self-proclaimed leader of venezuela one way door had urged the military to allow aid into the country by saturday president maduro claims the convoys are pretext for a u.s. intervention this is your ocean spiraled out of control as the border as that bed line expired and trucks were still unable to cross. i was.

had called for a humanitarian avalanche but is nowhere to be found at least here in route and what i've been told is that why don't he's actually left now the other bridge crossings in the area have seen violent clashes indeed now one humanitarian aid truck was reportedly even set on fire at one point protesters uprooted a tree trunk and used it actually is a battering ram against venezuelan police vehicle in another instance protesters from both sides were throwing rocks at one another. both nicolas maduro and one by doe have called for protests from their respective supporters there was an opposition protest in your caracas where protesters surrounded an air force base . now julie. and brazil have said that this so-called humanitarian aid has actually

entered venezuela at some of the crossing points but that's certainly not the case here is the humanitarian you know these these trucks are still sitting on the colombian side of the border just a few hundred meters ahead of me and the bolivian president evo morales has denounced this and said it's a trojan horse that the u.s. he accused the u.s. of attempting to smuggle weapons under the cover of humanitarian aid and considering the involvement of the state department special envoy to venezuela elliott abrams who did just exactly that back in the one nine hundred eighty s. under the reagan administration it seems to be a legitimate concern now the latest is that venezuela's president nicolas maduro has ordered the he's cut all ties with colombia so a total diplomatic rupture which is certainly a disturbing development but it's all quite hear it indeed does bridge but the other crossings there are clashes going on and the u.s.

national security advisor john bolton is calling on the venezuelan armed forces to turn against the president more duro in the tweets he threw down this ultimatum. venezuela's military has a choice embrace democracy protect civilians and allow in humanitarian aid who face even more sanctions and isolation earlier at least three members of venezuela's national guard deserted their posts on the border and tried to flee to colombia are about to show you the moment they try to ram their vehicle through security cordon into the country warning you may find the video distressing. and. the time i was. it was was the two was

a were meanwhile thousands of people have been showing their support for president maduro speaking at a rally on saturday he called on venezuelans to take to the streets and defend the country's independence and announced acquired or as an american puppet the crisis in venezuela has caused global shock waves according to the no war on venezuela movement there are now a hundred and fifty campaigns worldwide against u.s. interference in the country we heard from an antiwar activist who was at a protest in new york. this was a day for the people of the world the grassroots movement to make their voice heard against another u.s. war a war that's for oil that's for internal is domination and has nothing to do with humanitarian aid as there is no war that the us has ever what it has been for humanitarian purpose it will raise a firestorm within latin america that is absolutely clear destruction of the

economy of venezuela this is a crime that that the us is committing there there and saying that there is a chaos and and a u.s. intervention is needed but who is causing the economic destabilization in venezuela it's a seizing of venezuela's own funds and the m imposition of sanctions and the blocking of trade that the u.s. is orchestrating the opposition of course realizes that they have a big mediocre form and they are going to make all kinds of claims but they are the ones who are accepting shipments of arms that will lead to many more deaths and they are the ones who are creating a crisis on the border demanding that these trucks get through this is the wealthiest people in venezuela who could well provide for other people if they so

chose instead they want this this phony cover to get rid of the elected government with the venezuelan opposition blaming the government for severe shortages of basic goods one investigative journalist in caracas says everything is as it seems my experimental went to a local market. and say there was no toothpaste or toothbrushes and that is where the well here we have to put this is so. made the women's collective it's been made so it's really it's better than that i have to say. we can see. our rice. here we have all the meats there's a lot of protein here today because you know what you're seeing here really would

still not. be completely right u.s. media is portraying i mean while the u.s. is keeping up pressure on venezuela's economy with sanctions against the country state old company but as well an oil is still finding its way onto the u.s. market according to the international energy agency traders nearly return to the level before washington imposed sanctions as you can see there was a brief slump which was restored within weeks u.s. security advisor john bolton had announced the restrictions electronic. we're going to announce sanctions against patrol is to venezuela associate the name pate of base as it's known by its spanish acronym the state owned oil monopoly we have continued to expose the corruption of manure and his cronies in today's action ensures they can no longer loot the assets of the venezuelan people. bolton made

that announcement after washington recognized venezuela's opposition leader one who idolize interim president under the sanctions american firms can continue to purchase venezuelan oil but payment should be made into account not tied to the moderate government economists time i was in the explained why the world trade is still going strong. america has a high on life and it's one of the has the largest reserves in the world and i think they wanted the oil and they wanted to have a government loyal to them and they think that if they keep vines well and if they friends will lead to their site and that will end regime in cuba and in that regard well those are sovereign states and it seems that the united states trying to have . change this is really a violation of international international norm and this is a. foot at the stability of our globe but always america look at their economic

interests whether whether they're in venezuela what whether it is in iraq we hear that all the time. more than eleven thousand yellow vest protesters are once again marching through the streets of paris as well as other cities across france the fifteenth weekend of unrest. five separate demonstrations were organized just in paris six protesters are reported to have been detained there they get a vest movement began last november sparked by public anger over a fuel tax hike since then know it involved in the protests against the government policies which are seen as favoring the rich online announcements for saturday's marches appealed for peaceful action as support for the movement has dipped in

recent weeks i mean continued outbreaks of violence the director of the french economic observatory on reefs third neck believes even after all these weeks the movements still are likely to have any influence on micron's policies. as you still need to france's resisting will always skeptical towards neoliberal innovations and from this perspective it contributed to macros failure as a representative of the turn in the french economy came into power to exercise definite policies to lower taxes for the rich and businesses to keep wages low to cut back social spending and so on it's obvious that he won't give up on the stances due to the yellow vests this week during discussions on unemployment benefits we see that macron aligns with his strategy he condemns social services partners he intrudes into their talks in a very disrespectful manner preserves his line of the contemptuous technocrat.

german pensioner has been told to move out of the house he's lived in for almost a quarter of a century to make room for migrants but. i cannot believe that i seventy four year old pensioner must move out and suffer all these troubles even the one paying my rent while asylum seekers are getting it for free it's wrong. klaus roth was given a nine month victualled notice your thirties have promised to find him a smaller flat his previous one hundred fifty square metre apartment in a small town near stuttgart will go to six migrants the town with a population of around four thousand is home to fifty five migrants roth says he used to work with refugees helping them to integrate. i was involved in refugee work myself for three years i attended meetings with asylum seekers at the cafe international to help them integrate into our society i was actively involved and nobody told me back then that they needed my apartment set for that

now join us again and just for humans for the latest global news update. in a world of big part of the law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the back and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. i thought it could be is that i who will accept the idea of course this will be

ocean without by listening as they're going the border that is over six to seven with those that about as it's gotta be done or we are going to be slipping i underline the snipping and go one step the elegies i underline the only which means that we will be living living in it define one this did situation and therefore is lighter will find itself neither jewish as they claim nor to be a local i think as their claim. welcome back to the program. isn't a group of nationwide protests over claims of government corruption oppositional micah's have resigned on the mass the morning new elections goes down off as the details. the it. was.

the it was albania is on fire the small balkan nation has been engulfed in a massive anti government protests which literally left a stain on the face of the country's prime minister. start us out of. the country's opposition decided to destroy their parliamentary mandates you know kick the system out of order so what is going on well the allegation the authorities face is no joke a lot of people are certain the government is working hand in hand with the drug lords in parliament that is not the product of the vote of the people but is a product that has been exposed by a judicial wire tapes published by the international media. organized crime cooperating openly with the current government alleged leaked phone calls of one of

the country's most notorious cartels revealed dozens of albanian m.p.'s were happy to use the gang's influence and well persuasion skills to buy votes in the general election which the ruling party won by a landslide wiretaps also led to the official investigation into albania's former interior minister he stands accused of passive corruption drug trafficking and of being an active gang member and here comes the twist the prosecutors can't really do anything but prowl around him since albania's prime minister has refused to revoke his diplomatic immunity shielding him from the law there fishel position was to deny everything we do every allegation of corruption you know they were to do. demented evidence in there is allegations and but in this instance there are significant documented in evidence links between the current government organized crime money laundering and the trafficking of drugs and i think it needs to be

ascertained as to whether the two thousand and seventeen elections were free and fair or whether there was buying and vote rigging going on and i think that is why people that were sort of the cherry on the cake you know white people feel that they need to be said action taken and it could be a case of just a few bad apples but the opposition says it is not the sheer scale really of the drug operations in colombia of europe is mind blowing this tiny nation has become one of the biggest transit hubs for heroin cannabis and cocaine smuggling racketeering a server police force in the pocket of crime lords politicians enabling the drug trade instead of fighting it this is what albanian protesters say drives them to the street yet so far they've mostly been told to shut up and know their place for

the democratic party the socialist movement for integration and other opposition parties to abandon their mandates in parliament undermine the basic principles of democracy yeah a political protest is apparently a violation of democracy in the us rulebook the same us by the way that suffers from a severe drug problem of its own europe that albania's mafia have turned into a dirty money cash cow doesn't seem to mind of backing the elites to the lawmakers go against the democratic two as a full band citizens and undermine the progress the country has made on the european union path yes the e.u. seems eager to overlook the opposition's cry for help and set the nato nation and europe of drug down on the course of integrating into the union. what they're doing is provided for in the electoral college i'm a constitution of this country therefore what they are doing is completely one hundred percent democratic yes it's cool is it in

a political crisis but this political crisis is only happening because there are serious allegations of election rigging. i think that the e.u. and the us i don't know whether it's ignorance or whether they have some other agenda but they raise i mean people are shocked at the way that they're behaving and they've systematically failed to address any of the protests in albania over the last year the protesters are angry about this civil society is angry about this me as a journalist i'm angry about this because the fact. opposition m.p.'s resigning is democratic it's the pinnacle of democracy. and maria bhutto may be deported to russia as early as next month according to her lawyer she was detained an accused of being a russian agent by the u.s. department of justice in july from a driscoll says he's hopeful she'll be released in two to six weeks in short my colleague neil harvey earlier to discuss the case. the hang up is really going to

be the timing of the sentencing hearing we have a status conference for the judge on tuesday and will inform the judge kind of where we're at in terms of cooperation i will make a presentation as will the government prosecutors and hopefully that point will set a date maybe in a few weeks or a month to hopefully have a sentencing. you know fairly soon a matter of weeks and then it at sentencing. if it's time served sentence she would be deported fairly soon thereafter always wanted to return to russia that's been her goal from the beginning and so given that's her position you know i'm working with the government officials to make that happen as quickly as possible so as the sentence is done do you feel. you'll fully informed exactly what's going on you have a pretty good idea of where this is heading could there be surprises that any of the cases that u.s. authorities might hold for example there's always a risk i mean obviously under cooperation agreement she has to agree to if she's

agreed to cooperate with the government and if the government has more things for her to cooperate with her more questions they have they could conceivably keep her a bit longer for people who maybe aren't familiar with this case they want click on their knees and they hear this story. you know something about challenges failure and to register is a foreign agent in another country they had mention of on a chapman people immediately the thought thinking so she is spying yeah i mean i think that's very important is that the government is not even alleging she's a spy the government did not charge her with espionage the government in charge her with having classified information what this case is about where the government charged her with was acting as an agent of a foreign official in particular and the torsion who she had known through the gun rights movement was a mentor to her so it's very different than a typical case you know as is has no similarities with anna chapman who at least

was alleged to have been involved in passing of cash and drops and had secret communication devices and things like that just come up to full thirty am here in moscow those are the headlines for this hour we'll see you at five am for the latest global news updates. what politicians do. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected . so when you want to be president. or some want to. have to go to the press it's like them before three of them or can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of our. friendship. joining me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then.
