political stunt. man they know as bad wolf. facebook calls for global internet rules and for governments to play a more active role in regulating. elsewhere comedian selenski leads the polls in the first round of ukraine's presidential elections so far he's taken thirty percent of the book. a good morning is just so they tell your mother the first of april low for moscow with me kevin i would hope you stay with me for the next thirty minutes or so first that the internet needs more regulation and government should play an active role in policing it says facebook c.e.o.

mark zuckerberg he wants rules to cover areas like harmful content election integrity and privacy a senior correspondent reports. who would have thought that it could come to this face book begging governments to tame the wild wild web to police censor and control it to think it all began innocently people want to go on the internet check out their friend someone at the website that offers that i'm talking about taking the entire social experience of college and putting it online it was so simple then a place for teenagers to share their relationship status for friends to share pictures announce parties keep in touch but somewhere along the line facebook group dark gathering and selling people's personal information bots fake news election meddling censorship and. mass murders the new zealand

shooting rapes snuff videos it seemed facebook c.e.o. did nothing but apologize now it was a big mistake and i was a mistake and it was my mistake and i'm really sorry that this happened and i'm sorry and i'm sorry for it it seems zuckerberg is tired of keeping facebook his own platform clean in now wants governments to do it ministries to police the net with rules and regulations. the saying goes the route to hell is paved with good intentions though something tells me. less interested in good intentions and more concerned about bad press and profit but hey who knows he talks so pretty.

by updating the rules for the internet we can preserve what's best about it the freedom for people to express themselves remarkable ease actually saying that government censorship politicians deciding what you can and cannot do or say will somehow make the internet freer when has that ever happened before in fact one of the scandals facebook was embroiled in was its wholesale cleansing of pages and news feeds it didn't like info wars alex jones even for awhile artie's math ik media off for batiks pages including the now were taken down for no reason other than pressure from pro-war think tank and i'll leave you with. the messages are slick filled with graphics with grand.

young left leaning americans getting news from social media and the videos have been viewed tens of millions of times billions of times thank you apparently it's all for you your freedom your safety so here it is a corporate billionaire with dirty hands asking politicians to censor and regulate the web you don't get five hundred million friends without making a few enemies he once said but it seems circa berg is heading towards having just a few friends and millions of enemies investigative journalist dave lindorff believes mark zuckerberg those simply to look after his own interests. wolfs are getting closer of regulation of his company there's a lot of anger and it's a growing call to break up facebook to regulate facebook and i think whatever

british doing is recognizing that something is going to happen and rather than face it alone he wants to. call for regulation of all his competitors too because if he's the only one who's regulated he gets broken up the company gets smaller has less power. and to get hurt in the competition with larger entities like google he's trying to shape it but i don't think his argument holds a lot of water that is that he's been making all along that somehow facebook is just a free speech issue. fix one of the votes in ukraine yes stay on with around half of those votes counted comedian follow him as the lenski we can tell is leading the polls in the first run the ukraine's presidential election so far he's won just by thirty percent of the vote and will be up against incumbent president petro poroshenko later this month and in the second round because said to get frustrated when they get fifty percent plus one.

was. i think the tank has been watching this election closely yeah what's he bringing to the polity than here looks like people want to change but has come deeply unhappy this morning by the looks of it of course the countenance still happening. kevin it is still happening and we cannot say for sure we can not be certain that it is petro poroshenko the current president he's going to make it in the second round because the margin of course it isn't that tight but there's still a difference of about two or three percent but by the looks of it yes it will be

dimmer zelinsky and petro poroshenko and guess why a comedian is almost. two times more votes than the incumbent president it's because this is ukraine this is how things may happen in this country because the elections there are always something special and first of all you've got to think why and how mr poroshenko got into power that was an immediate result of the so-called revolution where people wanted radical change people really wanted him to put his hopes on mr poroshenko with their hope sorry and he couldn't deliver on the promises that he made yes some significant things happened in the country people now have the opportunity to go to europe for nineteen days without getting a visa he gave the craney an orthodox church independence from the moscow patriarchate but the rest of his promises to really improve the country's economy to get rid of

corruption and to stop the war in east ukraine that couldn't happen so why is mr lensky going to bring so much out of the promises because when you look at it is manifest it's much it is well at the same time he's a completely new face in ukrainian politics and that's on the one hand but then on the other hand we cannot see that he's a completely new face because basically his job was to make fun of all these politicians that he was competing against and his show now i just want to show you something he said when it became clear that he is winning this whole. we do not care who we are with in the second round and honestly i was told that there is already some fake news that we are agreeing with someone and uniting we do not agree with anyone to be honest we don't want to see all that past in our future and the future of our country that's all i know there are more than thirty names on the

ballot paper yes they were thirty nine you know what nearly forty but i mean everyone's talking about the top three this guy the comedian the the t.v. star if you like but of course you know it was there as well a very familiar face on the political scene it's been a bad night for her she's probably the most unfortunate candid because she's been ukraine's political scene for more than two decades she used to be prime minister if she spent several years in jail under a mystery in a cold which as president and before the lenski became part of this race she was expected to win. with a fantastic result because she was basically the essence of ukraine's opposition but as i said it hasn't been decided just yet because she's ready to challenge the officials were the official results and here is what we heard from her a few hours before that. we are convinced based on the figures and facts that those exit polls which are now pompously announcing that

petra pursing crease through the second round are inaccurate the exit polls are absolutely manipulative and manipulative to see ology in ukraine was carried out in this ng way. but again in these few hours we are starting to realize that the margin is growing and with almost half of the votes counted yes she is losing about three four percent to petro poroshenko. these just exit polls it's going to take about ten days spread like this goes ladies who is popular with young people to be sure and go public with older people but do we know how the country was voting little. the elections in ukraine are always special because if you look at the map and few die regions in the certain color previously you could always see that the country was divided the east and the south voted for so called pro russian touted its and then the western the central parts were always pro-west

now ever since the modern revolution the situation has changed but not so much because porsche and co who tried to were law on anti-rust rhetoric the regions where he won are in the west but there is also a pro russian candidate he is now just behind yulia timoshenko scoring almost eleven percent and despite the fact that crimea is not voting the republic and the donbass region that's ukraine's far east are not voting this pro russian candidate still scored almost fifty percent of the votes right there but again valdemar selenski yes as you were saying he's really the darling of the young generation of voters if you look at this map he was popular both in the east and the west and this is something special but. the population is discordant and because the country still very poor and again with no political experience whatsoever i can tell you

that the population in ukraine is. they're not confident about the people who are in power before and they might be even less confident in him just have a look. because they will speak and i know that for sure i see how much the interested in order to get in order to remain in power and they haven't done anything good for us they haven't given us anything and it will see like that which is the biggest thing it would really mean it's just i want to believe that the elections will be more honest than. the candidate we pulled in which a lot of people believe in. everyone. sick of what's come before therefore people want some positive changes the only problem is that basically only the old guard exists the one that we all already know the new people are only how serious just briefly briefly how has this been viewed by the west this election and how are the

people who are overseeing it saying it's going well they are saying that it was democratic yes many regularities are being reported but i just want to say something that's more important all the time when people are voting in ukraine there's a particular candidate supported by the west and there was a lot of support behind mr poroshenko five years ago now he's not getting all that kind of support so what i'm saying that the people really don't know who to vote for and they are confused they're not confident about any of the candidates it seems that when it comes to the elites in the west they did make their choice either and a portion did expect to get a lot of support from them it looks like he didn't really change in terms of ukraine maybe of trying to keep a close eye on the way that vote finally turns. to this. crisis researches do you think to explain to why the current president perform so badly. to the merely poor that said in a run off if you're the sitting president and only fewer than twenty percent of

people have decided to vote for you in the first is unclear where you're going to get another thirty percent of people to come from because after all they have experience of your rule whereas his rival of course has a great benefit of being completely unknown figure in terms of politics although of course universally known because to listen appearances and in that sense he's rather worked on trump he's an anti establishment candidate he's a universally known person because of television appearances but he doesn't have a chain of fertility clinics has been slammed for helping hundreds of australian couples choose the gender of their children the procedures being banned in a stroller itself right now as it was carried out in the united states outrage over the latest move toward designer babies the world's first genetically engineered baby and you get down the slippery slope of does genetically altered designer babies includes designer babies well with the gene editing procedure or eugenics as it's called clinics could alter a child's d.n.a.

that allowed them to change physical features such as a color and even cure a certain illnesses on editing human embryos is established in twenty nine countries around the globe the u.s. too has restrictive rules on research but gender selection is not prohibited scientists brian huntley explains concerns surrounding genetic engineering. the risk services are so high right now that you know that's what that's why the why genetic engineering has been banned for humans because in animals you get you get situations where you get say thirty embryos that are considered good enough to implant and out of those you get two or three that can survive for a few weeks and one that is considered viable or just on the on the edge of being being ready to do that in a way that is reliable enough. for human use and there's also religious concerns

people have you know in catholicism and in most of judah judaism you can't do these things but personally i see the primary value here being and handsome and an improvement over things like filtering out genetic disease conditions it goes filtering out genetic disease conditions you can do by other means more safely it's controversial subject of a break in the money the last to discuss the issue but more. we're not talking about getting a vehicle or buying a car and be able to design your car we're talking about a human life a child a baby and what this opens up to the danger that this opens it up to where society now things that they can basically just pick and choose i mean it even said that the science was going towards a way not just of eye color and of gender but also of skin color of race and so while we could be afraid that there might be another area in society out there

actually i have a lot of mixed feelings about this issue because you know on one hand a lot of this genetic testing has been used for women who can't have children i guess they do the genetic modification. and then in that case she's able to have a baby the other hand is what does open it up to and hand spins for you have this concept of designer babies not only does that create a dangerous precedent for motherhood as an example or for parenthood as an example but it's now glorified glorifying and placing his glorification so to speak on and on the baby's appearance at birth what more is that going to create say a parent paid for something in the eye color wasn't quite what the parents wanted and now the child going to be forever shamed or living in shame that on the converse that the parent gets everything they paid for and the qualities of a child how is that child going to raise knowing that to treat others with respect

and dignity based on their character and their personality because they're going to have been raised knowing you know we paid for you and we got you exactly the way we wanted you i don't want this issue of designer babies to come to fruition because i feel that would. it would essentially be what professor stephen hawkins argued that we're creating this super race which would add more inequality into the world but at the same time if this is a medically necessary procedure for a mom to have her child what's wrong with that i just think the president this creates is is very troubling. in a specific way in the science community and a parent had an in the family system as a whole. authorities in california released body cam video of the police shooting of american rapper willie macaulay there paralegal shows that the musician was asleep at the time the next video this morning contains disturbing images. there were.

also. stories. will. cut it is that took place in february police were initially called to check on because well being six officers shot him twenty five times claiming he leaned for his gun when he woke up in his car the video evidence suggests police did not try to wake him up something that the family also claimed police in the united states the bigger picture he killed more than a thousand people in twenty eighteen most of the officers involved did not go on the face criminal charges african-americans a latino is a statistically more likely to be shot by the police and other groups michael cross from the communities against police brutality says the offices in the will mccoy case should be charged with murder. it's shot of him and you know it was ridiculous

they shot him twenty five times and then they roughly twenty five times nobody knows for sure and then they started screaming clip your hands out of your hands and a man was dead and the fact that they chose to wake him up with bullets and of course kill him is completely wrong there can be no other explanation that writes you know i understand that they were maybe a little spooked by the fact that he had it on loaded gun in his law he didn't have a clip at that but the bottom line is that you know they should have attempted to wake him first in the united states you know an extremely far small fraction or even of officers or even charged and then all the rest of three of them are convicted when they are charged we are demanding that police be prosecuted with the drugs or her create for the incident and i believe these police officers should be charged with murder as well but mostly michelle gross the clady authorities are

planning to ban government employees from where we are religious symbols such as the islamic headscarf the or the jewish kippa it's important for us that i don't think a lot of people feel that in a free society we should be digital my saying discrimination of our citizens based on religion well the proposed ban covers public workers in positions of authority including school teaches we spoke to citizen journalist but not this guy and fatima athlete who plans to become a teacher in canada but no she's having second thoughts about it. now the state is seeing well you know the state has to be secular you can wear headscarves wherever you want but if you represent a state like a police officer for a jar or a teacher in a public school because people teach in private school will be allowed to but if you teach in a public school you represent the state you have to wear and you really just sign

you don't want the person you are interacting with. that maybe you have some prejudices because religion religion is supposed to be something that belongs to the personal fear is not part of the state we're already planning a lot of manifestation resending petitions we're talking to allegations lawyers so that this can't even come into law a lot of movements are going on right now so that disk can become a law because it's it's going to set a very bad precedent however if this does become a lot then a lot of religious minorities will leave the province and will have to find more safe and inclusive place where they can work as they want to live as they want to. test as classed as police in the venezuelan capital caracas more trouble there again against the water shortages and blackouts that continue the country.

alyse to see activists in burning tires erecting barricades says march twenty fifth venezuela has been suffering these jesus talk of that which have led to a restricted supply of drinking water the opposition claims president would do if there's an ability to control the situation while the government says the power cuts will result in criminal sabotage by their opponents the president has announced a thirteen day plan to rational the world to deal with the crisis in terms venezuela reels in the political troubles there the us mainstream media is turning its focus to russia's presence the wall street journal is accused president putin of making a career of intervening abroad vladimir putin has made a career of intervening abroad and seeing if the world lets him get away with it he did this in georgia when george w. bush was president then in crimea eastern ukraine and syria and barack obama's

presidency now he's doing the same on donald trump's watch this time in america's backyard in venezuela these accusations came off to russian military planes touched down in venezuela with around one hundred troops late last month racquets but that didn't satisfy washington president trump and other u.s. officials say russia has to get out. or see we'll see we'll see all options are out. just so you understand all options are on. syria's loss the been a zone people who's using the russians to suppose maduro calls for hands off on his way out while he invites security forces from cuba and russia so he and his cronies can keep plundering venezuela it is time for venezuelan institutions to stanford or sovereignty russia and cuba hands off and as well a delicate way. well there's a reason why they call the wall street journal the war street journal because it is a rabbit the pro war the united states has some eight hundred military bases

outside of the borders i think the russians may have a couple the u.s. has a global military empire and unfortunately is what keeps washington running it's what keeps the people inside the beltway very wealthy at the expense of the rest of the country so that is the issue of the united states of course is a hypocrite as usual in the other issues the issue of sovereignty why can't a sovereign venezuela. ask for assistance from an ally the u.s. certainly has asked for assistance from its allies as a sovereign country and has come to be assistance of some of its allies as sovereign countries why is sovereignty only a one way street when it comes to washington. well put a question is there you get more answers on our side as well r t the outcome of course the time now twenty seven minutes almost post i'd look at the morning paper will first if you're just waking up to it i'm kevin i'm back with more just about half an hour's time here not the international.
