seems italy might be the first g seven nation to join china's global trade network the belt initiative despite growing concerns in other western countries. u.k. for just a treaty made now says the twenty ninth of march deadline is unattainable blaming british m.p.'s for the delay. because they want to leave without a deal. or do they not want to leave. causing potentially irreparable damage to public trust this government has led the country. into crisis chaos and division and the tensions flare in the russian far east and see if you could scarf of rape of a local woman is blamed on a migrant from central asia police yet to confirm the nationality of the suspect.

on the scene as many in america see sexual harassment at work as less of a problem now that it wasn't right for me to movement in twenty seventeen a new poll about the fields we ask our guests to. the office and we're not playing that game anymore and that's what's happening or getting caught and they want to go back to how to be real. with categorizing our past. as one whole massive violent group. good morning eleven am first on the twenty first of march here in moscow when i was kevin owen hoping to stay with me for this latest news update from the international h.q. first in european nations and the u.s. concerned over italy's determination to take part in china's global trade network the so-called belt and road initiative chinese president xi jinping is jew in italy

later on thursday to discuss the details all the possible agreement reports for you . the bad boy or the godfather of euro skepticism is really as once again tasking relations with the e.u. with rome now pushing to join trying this road and ballot initiative that's reportedly setting off alarm bells in brussels and getting backs up in washington to. italy's a major global economy and great investment destination no need for italian government to lend legitimacy to china's infrastructure vanity project. and dosing boat initiative lends legitimacy to china's predatory approach to investments a moving no benefits the italian people it's really could become the first member of the so-called group of seven the most powerful nations to join china some bushes plan to boost connectivity between asia europe and africa.

local businesses will likely view the project as a positive but the major ports being referred to an investment into the millions of dollars it's got the italian press already speculating over a once forgotten port becoming trying as the gateway to europe the pool to treat us to is returning to the logistical world for europe that had for the old austria-hungary an empire business opportunity as the site of the italian prime minister will be forced to explain his decision. of the belton road memorandum between italy and china is primarily economic and commercial it does not put into question our european and atlantic position it does not put our national interests at risk and it is on the same page as european strategy his cabinet alcoves those

words saying that the deal would be non-binding and would just represents the initial framework everything to come their european partners who have labeled as beijing a systemic rival especially allies on the other side of the atlantic it's called one bill one road it's global and if you look at the spots where there are who are there there are a gauging in you see some geo political and military aspects we will not allow china to develop its so-called one belt one road strategy even trying as cutesy promos have been helped change americans' minds cannot. to see the. strength. breaking barry clementi just to be there. after it see the chinese leader is planning his next stop in paris but here the expectations of talks going well are not as promising just last hour as photo paolo bona dany professor of early modern

european history in como italy he told me thinks rome should be allowed to act freely while i think peter is going to achieve a lot i mean the new golden initiative is a major factor in a large part of the island economy i mean are we. stronger import export relation with china not all the major states and europe are happy about that but i think the stake in you are in a relation to that itself we are starting to or now are on the well now or the nation we are we're just so out of the chinese immediately and i think it's a positive thing. you know the united states. that. made you can't win the war and mass. it's also.

thinking to march on the walk to. the center of gravity and say. britain's prime minister has admitted that the country will not be able to leave the e.u. with a deal in place by the march twenty ninth deadline and a statement outside ten downing street theresa may pointed the finger firmly at parliament for the chaos two years on and these have been unable to agree on a way to implement the u.k.'s withdrawal as a result we will now not leave on time with a deal on the twenty ninth of march. this delay is a matter of great personal regret for me so let's take a step back to where this direct at saka began this week now it follows a letter sent by curious in may to donald tusk requesting and asking for an official breck extension now the letter clearly shows that with just nine days to go to west supposedly leaving the european union that deadline would be nigh on impossible to ratify

a deal constructively so now june the thirtieth is what the prime minister really wants and not responding to that request donal's suggested the request would probably get backing for the rest of the e.u. twenty seven leaders on one condition that being that to resume a is twice rejected deal finally gets backing from across the house in parliament believe the shoulder extension would be possible. to have the condition of positive votes on that was drawn. in the house of commons so if those conditions are not met well grex in that case is still just nine days away now back here in westminster though theresa may has received a new way of backlash for her decision to request a delay all she's doing is running around the clock after a second heavy duty to do it was just marks one thousand days since the referendum and this government is lead the country. into crisis chaos and division so now

all eyes are on the e.u. and britain in the summit on thursday and friday off this week to try and break the deadlock that has defined the last one thousand days here in britain of course nobody really anticipated would still be in a deadlock still across the house and the public division is really the word that encapsulates the sentiments across the house financial history first arose good things through the most taking a big gamble here by effectively threatening parliament. i think super believes that if you're right at the last minute and duke says if the only alternative is no deal then our opponents will collapse but of course many of our opponents in the country don't want to deal there will no deal so the be quite happy for the deal to fail the fact remains that suit it goes to the dreadful deal most people don't like it most people think it's

a lot of that but you can trust the public against it actively once against it except because this deal is all in favor of brussels and us nothing for the united kingdom if as i say if the speaker allows the deal to come back if it does come back i think it will fail again then two groups use the shorter. and i mean at that stage the european union might just say it will goodbye its new deal. american men are apparently less convinced now that sexual harassment in the workplace is such a big deal as compared to back in twenty seventeen when the me too movement started according to a new poll out a gallup survey found fifty three percent of men see workplace harassment as a problem that therefore down from sixty six percent when the me to move it exploded after a series of sexual assault allegations against powerful men however it does seem that people are more sensitive to the problem gallup suggested that their way the story's been covered in the media may have changed man's attitude. during that time

a torrent of sexual misconduct allegations have been leveled against well known men and widely covered in the media this preponderance of news coverage may have put men on the defensive or maybe they had a strong reaction in the immediate wake of the weinstein allegations and the start of the meta movement but they may have become somewhat desensitized to the issue since then the police you find exam for debate it seems to me to movement is still a polarizing topic whatever the number say. what they said in their in their study was simply that there is a discrepancy between men who are democratic as well as men who are republican and it seems as though that drop is more heavy leaning towards the republican man maybe it has something to do with the hearing on brett kavanaugh i think that a lot of men right now are a little concerned that this situation could happen to them and it's got them women deep in the cavanagh hearings brought to light how false accusations

going back years and years that have zero evidence can actually be used against someone later in their career and i think we've seen so many false accusations that many americans especially constitution loving americans fear rightly so perhaps that due process could be undermined if it's a if it's a she said it and we have to believe it scenario dating back to when women first entered the workplace the forty two fifty s. and sixty's the seventy's there have been women who have not said a word why because the culture and the temperature and the climate was never an acceptable place in time for them to preserve their issues and so the old boys club or old boys network was allowed to function in this in this way were four million were able to do what they wanted to do and women weren't respected in the workplace

and they were able to take advantage of women the rules have changed and we're not playing that game anymore and that's what's happening men are getting caught and they want to go back to hell things used to be and so they don't want to acknowledge the fact that. sexual harassment is still a very pervasive issue and since twenty seventeen you know i hear it there were engaged are actually the gross platitudes that your guest is using i take i take real exception with categorizing our castigating men as a one whole massive violent group while casting women as some sort of one whole massive group of victims that is just not true that there is a gradient area that you're not at all where idea of going to hell in a rational person is placement if we're going to have if we're going to have a rational conversation you have not read me we're having a congress that i'm good or bad and yes some women have made false out of it and yes some because you were going on a yes some women have made false accusations it is an absolute provable fact and so until you're ready to have

a conversation like that we're going to be caught up in all the same hypocrisy that many on the side of the me too movement that has become so radicalized that they think all men are evil and all women are victims my life experience has taught me that when you speak in black and white like that you make a big mistake and it's been its bigotry frankly to talk that way about men or about women. racial tensions and fled in the far east and russians if you could score after a central asian migrant was accused of kidnapping and raping a local woman many migrants know fear for their lives after the shops and market stalls where the work has been attacked. but. this is the reality for central asian immigrants in the far eastern russian city of you could see these coexisted with locals for years peacefully but they say they no longer feel welcome so did i my

nephew that we should give you but you missed i'm sure. you could you could do worse and while they don't want to leave their lives and little businesses the. they have behind they're scared to stay. here and threatened us with. everything down and go. live here anymore this is it xenophobic sentiment surged in the sabeer in city after a local woman was abducted and raped the media outed a migrant from kyrgyzstan as the key suspect and the city snaps sporadic protests violent attacks and an attempt at storming a mosque many now want the whole day asper to make amends for the crime of a few individuals the local authorities while saying the crime has no nationality also said exactly what the morgue wanted to hear a guest insulting the host in his house is no longer

a guest but an enemy. we are in our home and in our city we're the masters of our land and we need to make sure everyone understands that officials have also promised to hunt down and deport everyone who's moved into the city illegally they've called on people not to take matters into their own hands the police have been detaining those delivering mob justice and charging them with administrative offenses also to quell the hatred law enforcement have published official statistics showing that out of almost three hundred cases of rape in the region last year only four were committed by foreigners the key demand now is that are we quick and transparent investigation and members of the migrant community support this call for justice or the rapist must be brought into the streets and punished publicly so that others never do the same. but the damage has been done

already and there's no obvious way of defusing tensions at this point most immigrants still choose to keep their shops cafes and market stalls shut in fact dozens of city buses. stayed in their posts following the riots immigrant drivers were too afraid to show up for work for them it's better to lose some money rather than their lives. u.s. politicians are already setting up their campaign strategies for the twenty twenty presidential election and they're using every means at their disposal it seems to be voter friendly even revealing personal details like drug taking. i have yes most i have and i am i gave in i didn't even. forty years ago i smoked marijuana and i made it my mom's not happy that i just did but when i was a teenager i used drugs i blank it is. like

if. you don't use it we drove you to. your teeth out of the. presidential candidates senators bragging about their pot use what their kids who can't get a job because they were bombed by the defense for doing things that to the left the president still are privileged to do break laws not to worry about it i'm just really glad that cory booker has come out and really laid it out i have seen it is for the other candidates including one sanders to be joking about marijuana while people are locked up still and having it on their record so they can't get jobs we

have this thing we're taught in school that everybody in america is equal under the law and you're treated the same it's simply not true the marijuana charges can keep people from getting student loans you can actually murder somebody you go to jail do your time and then get a student loan from the federal government to go to college but if you're on a drug charge you can't ever get a loan to go to college coming up a story about elections elsewhere less than a month to go before voting in israel some kind of it sort of going all out to get their votes to some say we will tell me about what might be right after this break . what politicians do something. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. some want to.

have to go right to the press this is like the full screen the whole can't be good that i'm interested always in the waters of our. city. you know world of big partisan movies lot 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 smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the 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.

again good morning twenty minutes past eleven on the but moscow time clashes erupted in chile's capital santiago of a night during rallies for the rights of the indigenous mcclatchey frequent. third. the justice that flies in the streets while authorities used tear gas water coming as well to disperse the crowds numerous arrests were made him arrest is linked to the police killing of a trading floor the pitching mound last november video of the instant a movie. after officers court and try to destroy evidence that contradicted the state. german politicians have lashed out at the u.s. ambassador to the country calling for him to be expelled richard grenell is openly criticized berlin's plan to reduce its defense spending. nato members clearly pledged to move towards not away from two percent by twenty twenty four

that the german government would even be considering reducing its already an acceptable commitments to military readiness is a worrisome signal to germany's twenty eight nato allies mr grant always a total failure of a diplomat all of this behavior is rather borish with his repeated clumsy provocations mr grenell is harming transatlantic relations since mr grant or took up his post as ambassador in berlin he has on several occasions quite conspicuously interfered in the internal affairs of the federal republic of germany his behavior in the host country is anything but diplomatic and rather reminiscent of the governor of an empire. the ambassador was referring to a goal which was set at the nato summit five years ago he's been repeatedly accused of trying to pressure german politicians and business leaders mr grant was also urged me to pull out of the old strained gas pipeline project is russia two former

u.s. diplomat jim jeffords things beilin is starting to question its alliance with washington . mr grinnell does have president trump personal support now there was talk that mr grenelle might be moved to the united nations when nikki haley left but that didn't happen so i think it would be very embarrassing for the administration to withdraw him the problem is is that we have now have an american ambassador who is throw on polish about it especially with demands about spending more money on nato and you can't have five g. from walk away and you must not be buying. russian gas and complete the north stream to pipeline that it's starting to get on their nerves and maybe beginning to dawn on some people in germany that maybe this american relationship is not all it's cracked up to be now some people want to say this is all a question of style but i think it's becoming clear that it's really more a question of substance. with elections coming up in israel next month kind of this

mid recchi that brains to get the public's attention it seems some are going to add to for getting banned for controversial content check this yourself. sure. but. she said. democratic. sin and democracy can fail for the thing that she shows that. is what is the real thing that's happening here skies in the. sky. oh my god i am limits on. how can i do for them what's that are they stopped.

sixty racist old what it's like. they don't have any more all to say about it it's horrible too much too much it's too i just feel it's violent and racist i don't think it's just very funny. to know what's inside the funny it's not for me for making the kong with version of both the us and then going to bed in the good one and i think the world is not just in with to pull together for finding a solution a reader too good to ever since ever. think it's just the only tool you are wrong to drop dead for future. u.s. department of agriculture is facing a scandal over experiments on animals some of the tests reportedly included feeding potentially infected dead kittens to healthy ones the scientists spent more than twenty million dollars to buy cats and dogs from abroad for the experiments.

the agriculturalists service says it conducts experiments to strict ethical standards researching the toxo plus most as a parasitic infection that some scientists believe could affect hof the wills population cats play a significant role in its spread we spoke to justin goodman from the organization behind the report he shared some details of the gruesome testing. we were viewing several reports that contain basically just the challenge of how many animals are each laboratory united states and we saw at the u.s. the a there were several chats

a list it being used but no other information about what their use involves so we submitted a freedom of information act request and were able to get some details and usually about the fact that the u.s.d.a. is breeding under kittens here seeding them parasite infected meat collecting their feces for two weeks and then incinerating the cats even though they're perfectly healthy and adoptable fractionally in the middle of a lawsuit to obtain documents about this research because obviously now that we know they've been going around the world and rounding up dogs and cats for meat markets and people's packs killing and we feeding them to cats in these chicken cannibal experiments they don't want people to know about that and they seems like they got to great lengths to keep this project a secret. september congress issued a resolution calling for improvements in animal protection but mr goodman again thinks that is just an example of the government's poll crissy we found it incredibly hypocritical that while the u.s. government is taking steps to not only ban cat dog states but also condemn nations

that are doing it broad. the us government was sending people over and sending money over to these countries and subsidizing these very kind of neat farms in markets that congress is so disgusted with and then virtually everyone in america wants to see end it so it's incredibly ironic and hypocritical and i think that is a testament to the incredible lack of accountability at the u.s.d.a. one hand you have the entire nation working to stop a practice that the u.s.d.a. is helping keep a lot truth is that virtually any experiment on animals in the united states is legal as long as the right paperwork is filled out. so if you saw this we're going to tell you about it stargazers been treated to a rare occurrence called a super worm move first time i heard of such thing what is it that well this is how it looked from one is are is knowledge and taint

a supermoon happens when the earth's natural satellite is closest point to us and fully visible that makes sense and the nickname would comes from farming traditions because the worms emerging from the soil in march that we all make sense this one happened at the same time as the spring equinox making it an even more spectacular vernal that could not be super worse mood but. i think i'll leave it there that's it for this bulletin twenty eight minutes past eleven thanks so much for watching out international livid in this those they have a great one on exchangeable that in just about thirty one minutes. after the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going to do next the ball different clubs on one hand it is logical to set off on fields where everything is familiar on the other i wanted a new challenge and

a fresh perspective i'm used to surprising. assault one all serious. i'm going to talk about football not the or else i just think i was going to go. by the way ways that that's like here. during the great depression which i'm old enough to remember there was most of my family were unemployed working class there wasn't it was bed you know much worse objective listen today but there was an expectation that things were going to get better. there was a real sense of hopefulness there isn't today today's america was shaped by the turn principles of concentration of wealth and power. reduced democracy attack so low down to engineer elections manufacture consent and other principles

according to no i'm chomsky one set of rules for the rich opposite. that's what happens when you put her into the. narrow sector of wilf which will is dedicated to increasing power for chills just as you'd expect one of the most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy to fund tahsin let it be an arms race is often sparing dramatic development only closely and going to desist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical thought.
