7:03 pm
hundred of them are a french are region and french nationality this is an issue that is hugely divisive here in france around sixty seven percent of the population says that these children should not be given permission to people to this country but there are other cases that are also making headlines this is the recent case this time of the new slum mixtape wide of british nationality not chummy much bigger was found at the beginning of last month when she was pregnant but hope we old son recently died in a syrian refugee camp and this came as the bush hopes to teach state that he was rufo king but british citizenship that announcement was both criticized and supported. the tragic death of show me a baby a jar is a stain on the conscience of this government. it's against international law to make someone stateless and to leave out the whole noble young woman and innocent child in a refugee camp where we know infant mortality to be high is morally reprehensible
7:04 pm
the home secretary failed to british child and he has a lot to answer for it's absolutely tragic that a baby has died and of course i understand this is a really terrible problem but on the other hand the job of the home secretaries to protect all the people in the united kingdom if you have had advice and what was right thing to do and i totally support his decision we failed as a country to safeguard the child this was an entirely avoidable death of a british citizen there was no attempt to help by the home office i think it's shocking how the home secretary has treated this situation summit begum is our back to the day she our region she left at the age of fifteen from the u.k. to join islamic state in syria when she was found in everything she can do in the last month she said that the wish was to come back to the u.k. and head coach there but at the same time she also said she did not feel great

joining islamic state now all of this comes as fighting intensifies over the last stronghold for the jihad this week in the year as it's all province we are hearing from senior officials of the syrian defense forces that hundreds are islamic state fighters have surrendered but at the same time hundreds more obvious fusing to surrender and so the fighting continues. however as a mixtape loses control of his last territories in syria it appears the sizable number of ice the wives are not too aggressive in their decision to join the group . and there was little sympathy from our guests for the woman who had essentially kick started this debate she made the bag. with go blank piece walking away with pitiful sentences she would have walked away with a pitiful sentence in comparison we all saw absolutely no light on the her was that
7:06 pm
she didn't do anything that would have been let's say the act of terrorism puts her at risk of monta kweisi place in this country if she can be put on trial she should be put on trial but this is a woman who just weeks ago was just before the month to bomb me of the area on the ground a concert in which you know all those children died and she was just in four years . you know so you have to think the. level of indoctrination if any child abuse a british citizen should be brought to this country and frankly i think they should be forcibly would move from the parents who put them in their support. which we would then be. inhumane because she was raped a child away from its mother so we couldn't it was so there was no other option i
7:07 pm
think subject jumping to so you don't i applaud them for his bravery if you look at it from belgium you look at germany and how many islam is terrorist attacks have actually been committed by people who have returned from syria then i wouldn't be glib about it that just needs to aside and that said we're not going to join them. we're going to win tarried our values of humanity the rule of law and justice and we're going to we're going to allow it and we're going to put on trial and i'll be very happy to see. behind prison for a very long time for crimes we've got to make sure that there's safety and protection for those children will be held to account and then there's going to be a global conversation maybe through the international criminal court to actually hold these fighters responsible for the crimes that they committed. human rights watch has released a damning report exposing torture and abuse of youngsters suspected of having links

7:10 pm
positions because they are based on confessions that were tortured out of the kids. those children are number one considered us combatants who are trying just as adult combatants and it is not fair that should be the international law is very clear and considers that children who are recruited by armed groups should be considered first and foremost as victims who need rehabilitation and reintegration into society rather than imprisonment and torture. and we recommended the government the iraqi government and purchase orders to immediately free all those kids who have not committed a crime as for those who are suspected of having committed crimes and other violent oppression well sure they should be tried but they should be tried accordingly to international rules and compelled to minors in all cases we recommend strongly that
7:11 pm
there is no practice of torture anymore and that investigations are open jewel hauled all the perpetrators accountable these are the recondition that we have addressed to the kurdish and the iraqi government and we are to expect to get answers. we're awaiting comments on the allegations from the iraqi government the country's counter-terrorism laws do provide for the detention and trial of anyone involved with eisel that applies even if they have not committed violent crimes and only played support roles for example working as cooks or in hospitals. and as well as the national assembly has granted opposition leader and self declared president one quiet doe the off foresty to declare a state of emergency in the cone tree it comes as the country suffers through an ongoing blackout on humanitarian crisis president madeira the ongoing power cuts in venezuela are a result of cyber attacks by the united states adding that his government is
7:12 pm
working to solve the issue meanwhile. the catastrophe needs to be addressed immediately advocating for carrying out the state of emergency approved by the national assembly local journalist nora saw got the details the president of the congress one why don't explain why the congress is assuming this competence and how and what will imply for the benefit let's hear what he has to say. this catastrophe needs to be addressed immediately no we cannot turn our heads elsewhere no we cannot abandon our people and you are in the streets you have the right to protest you have the right to demand you have the right to raise your voice you have the right to protest for your relatives you have the right to go out to the streets and demand our rights it's not true that there is normality in the streets in venezuela there is no according to what he treats. this state of alarm is declared as some
7:13 pm
adelie of the state of emergency throughout the national territory due to the public climate he generated by this is change in direction of the electricity supply that has effect that the vast majority of the venezuelans since thursday march seventh twenty nineteen the valley berry and national. armed forces are order to a range of the necessary mobilizations to provide protection to build their facilities and of course so that they can fulfill their task of restoring the national electricity system. this is a lot of psychological pressure on the venezuelan people to be dealing with the humanitarian crisis and now the crisis with the electrical grid the men on top of that to have the assembly declare a national emergency this is really designed to create more jobs and more fear and more division within the venezuelan people live a plan of the opposition is to find any way that they can to bring things to a head and the military remains pretty much consistently on the side of
7:14 pm
euro and so this is another attempt to push the military to defect and to deep in the crisis. in the meantime the united states is ramping up pressure on venezuelan president nicolas maduro u.s. national security adviser john bolton says the momentum is now on the side of opposition leader. they have not sought to arrest and the national assembly in the opposition and i think one reason for that is that madeira fears if he gave that order it would not be a date but i do think the momentum is on the side of the kaleido street file and tough talk from the us and now nationwide blackouts what a perfect time for the self-proclaimed president of venezuela to invite a foreign power to meddle in his own country the solution now is intervention and washington looks ready to oblige what would make you use the us military in
7:15 pm
venezuela it's an option we continue to say and we always will for the day of all options are on the table all options are on the table all options are on the table all options are on the table because they always are it's no secret the u.s. has a soft spot for foreign interventions and they've picked the right guy for it as he's a no mood for talking it should be very clear to the world and to this regime that nobody will take part in this fake dialogue you want to compliment you go i am committed to international dialogue today tomorrow and two ways of course shooting first and asking questions later doesn't leave much room for dialogue fake or not and of course much of the population doesn't want war at all and their fear is from other countries cannot happen over the heads of the venezuelan people we chose nicolas maduro not. that long ago i do he's calling for in fatal war because it is a war against all the people of venezuela it is venezuela that should solve the
7:16 pm
problems of venezuela the us should stop interfering in other countries affairs you know we don't want war we want peace and it's not just the venezuelans who disapprove just as america's interventions in iraq syria and libya all lacked international approval so the un leadership has already made it clear it wants no further escalation are you worried about the risk of internal military confrontation or even foreign. i hope that the sink that the times of foreign intervention in both america long goal gone there's a reason waving a big stick at sovereign countries is frowned upon the democracy promised often turns into a drawn out military occupation not to mention the bloodshed needed to even get there the us secretary of state might pump a has blamed russian media for shifting attention from venezuela's humanitarian crisis however and see what activist medea benjamin told is the us media which is playing with the fact. russia has also use
7:17 pm
sponsored just information organs like russia today and sputnik to divert attention from the humanitarian disaster of the material regime they most of the means to media in the united states has fallen in line with this we're seeing a propaganda campaign it was interesting that the new york times had to backtrack the story of the industry being the ones to fire to the humanitarian tracts when it was obviously true that video footage of people from the opposition throwing molotov cocktail but in general i would say the u.s. media has gone along with a very one sided story about what's happening in venezuela almost never talking to people who support the administration the u.s. president has presented a record large budget proposal to congress including hundreds of millions to counter alleged russian influence of the details for you after this short break.
7:18 pm
what politicians do something. to put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. some want to be rich. but you'd like to be closer to what the forty three of the more people get. interested in the waters of. the city may. seem wrong but. just don't all. get to shape out just being educated and in the game because the trail.
7:19 pm
when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. welcome back president trump passed sent congress a record four point seven five trillion dollar budget request for next year but includes planned military boosts as well as hundreds of millions of dollars to counter alleged russian into influence on the scale of more pain has more. well quite interesting we've got a budget request or proposal from the white house that talks of line activity by russia and then from their talks of requesting six hundred sixty one million
7:20 pm
dollars to spend to counter russian activity that both in europe and in central asia now the budget also talks about countering the activities of china refers to strategic rivalries between the united states and russia and china now it's interesting to note that at the white house briefing we did hear some talk of big budget difficulties and some of the hardships facing the country let's review some of what was said this great progress is threatened by or unsustainable national debt which is nearly doubled under the previous administration in now stands at more than twenty two trillion dollars washington has a spending problem in danger is the future prosperity of our nation and for generations to come this budget will balance in fifteen years in addition federal resources and front line defenders are overwhelmed at the southern border in the fiscal year two thousand and twenty budget provides sizable funding of an eight
7:21 pm
point six billion dollars for full completion of the wall and other border security resources as you heard the white house referred to spending problems but their report certainly involves quite a bit of spending in the proposal that they're putting forward in addition to the countering of the strategic rivalry with russia and china they talked about five hundred million dollars that would be transferred between foreign assistance accounts in regards to what they call supporting the transition in venezuela or trying to oust venezuela's president nicolas maduro furthermore the document and the budget proposal refers to countering regimes such as north korea and iran it refers to them as rogue regimes and it makes reference to terrorism now this budget proposal has been widely criticized. is there are many criticizing it for the focus on building trumps a beloved wall in the us mexico border that he campaigned around so much and not giving a priority to domestic programs however are many look at it and they see quite
7:22 pm
a bit of spending on foreign issues in particular singling out russia. giant boeing is now facing growing scrutiny over the safety of its planes that comes after a boeing seven three seven max eight operated by ethiopian airlines crashed on sunday with no survivors it's prompted our carriers in china ethiopia morocco indonesia south africa and the cayman islands to grounds their craft of that model china has airlines operate one of the world's largest fleet of max eight say the aircraft will not be allowed to fly until all security concerns have been resolved . in line with the management principle of zero tolerance for safety hazards and strict control of safety risks the civil aviation administration issued a notice requesting domestic transportation airlines to suspend the commercial operation of the boeing seven three seven a after the civil aviation authority will

baseless too boring definitely in my view the fleet must be wrong and completely out of i read it in russian either there was just one of these as they delivered the just recently would be wise the advice not to take this plane into operation before this seems clarified obviously the computer is designed in a way that it pushes the nose of the aircraft down because obviously there are source information given by it except it's a sense of. lifting the nose to twenty degrees which is impossible. so the computer system pushes the nose of the bed there was a kind of fight between the computer and the pilots but obviously will it has faded to do is to train the time it sufficiently in such a case to switch off the computer and to take over the plane it has been trained by the vail twenty hours as to my knowledge twenty to twenty days into three should be
7:25 pm
