here in moscow to choose to morning on good morning for me kevin i mean i'm here for next thirty minutes for the latest world news update from out international first in the united states has designated iran's revolutionary guard as a foreign terrorist organization us secretary of state confirmed president trumps decision monday repeating accusations that the elite force both finances and promotes terrorism the leaders of iran are racketeers not revolutionaries he really people deserve better than to be governed by this kind of hypocritical and corrupt officials with this designation we are sending a clear signal a clear message to iran's leaders. including some sort of malim is band of thugs that the united states is bringing all pressure to bear to stop the regime's outlaw behavior we asked our allies and partners around the world to this thing so the ramifications that the u.s. designation puts economic could travel sanctions on members of the military group
1:02 am
the measures also cover organizations companies and individuals tied with it the groups considered as iran's dominant military force in fighting against icily in syria and iraq kellam open has more on the move. will be the first time that we've seen the u.s. government designate part of another country's government as a terrorist organization now donald trump in the statement he accuses iran of being a state sponsor of terrorism financing promoting terrorism as a tool of state craft and we heard those words echoed by mike pompei o the u.s. secretary of state has continued to build its maximum pressure campaign against the iranian regime. i am announcing our intent to designate the islamic revolutionary guard corps including its good force as a foreign terrorist organization as a nation will take effect one week from today in response to this designation by the us government the iranian government has now declared the us central command
1:03 am
and the u.s. military to be terrorists and we've also heard from job he'd zarif the foreign minister of iran and he has spoken up and said this is another move by washington that could lead to further isolation of the united states netanyahu for whom of. nation of the g.c. fully understand its consequences for u.s. forces in the region in fact they seek to drag the us into a quagmire on its behalf. should my bets have been to be conned into into the us disaster the troubled ministration has particularly distinguished itself by escalating into rhetoric against the islamic republic of iran distinguishing itself from the obama administration that presided over the p five plus one nuclear negotiations but the trumpet ministration has escalated u.s. sanctions and hostility toward the islamic republic everywhere we go in the middle east it's a red or ran around spread death destruction and chaos behind every problem is
1:04 am
iran's the world's leading state sponsor of terrorists of iran's leaders so yes. death. and destruction however this organization that was key in defeating the ice will dyess. terrorist organization you know made great sacrifices in order to fight against i.c.l. has now been labeled itself as terrorists by the u.s. government yet more response from a former advisor to runs nuclear negotiator believes washington is on a direct collision course that with iran. conquer with the majority of foreign policy experts who characterise this decision by president trump as advised and counterproductive to use his own national interests because it puts the us irreversibly an equation course with the. me tell you forces principally there will lucian in regards i think it's highly dangerous and in makes war with iran an
1:05 am
imminent possibility not just a probability because of the proximity of forces in the region and of course the number a symmetrical power capabilities that would be put into practice if. u.s. attacks iran this of a dangerous development in the spec to global peace and security. their cause for you know immediate denunciation by the war need international organisations. so this move to recognize the revolutionary guard as a terror group welcomed by the israeli prime minister binyamin the decision coming just hours before polls open for israeli general elections in fact sold overseas but an hour ago these delays live shot in from tel aviv for over six million israelis are eligible to vote more than ten thousand polling stations across the country and abroad nexus moriarty's paulus leered takes a look at the front runners. there is something for everyone in the israeli
1:06 am
elections there are more than fifty parties competing although only two have a real chance of forming the next government is the likud party headed by prime minister benjamin netanyahu who fancies himself as a strongman among the successes he's talked at which is getting his ally american president donald trump to recognize jerusalem as israel's capital to recognize israeli sovereignty of the golan heights and also to label iran's revolutionary guard as a terrorist organization but that's not enough for the prime minister just before the elections he was asked if he would consider and mixing territory in the west. yet we will go to the next stage in imposing israeli sovereignty in the west bank has made opponent is the same tryst with a distinguished military background for me israeli army chief began he appeals to voters who feel that netanyahu has been in power for too long i think benjamin netanyahu has done a lot for the country he's served in probably close for more than two decades and
1:07 am
thirteen years as a prime minister but is receiving enough is enough whoever wins will bring little joy for palestinians israelis in general are less inclined to compromise on the issues particularly interesting enough when it comes to young people according to a poll by the israel institute we asked israelis on the streets of tel aviv what's his appeal to young people. in the ration is much more violent. in the relieve like in the. three mm everything is extreme literally own with that fear creates a lot of unique and unique to any. kind of a feeling of togetherness it's not too surprising that amid the younger populations there's a high levels of support on the thing i think i'm going to vote for many guns. and i know it's way too much in controlling
1:08 am
a too and that's too much power and a lot of is really don't trust them in the minivan our i supply them thing your own cars i think tank and she's a successful now as it is. i'm afraid of change and i don't know if i one day someone asked of me does been several a geisha against the last several years and there's a very good chance this is going to end in prison in the next year or so except a traitor in his own presidency has an achievement any significant achievements i mean those elections about an attorney oh yes or no it's almost the only issue at stake almost the only issue on the table and almost the only show which is discussed and you know here emotions are very high their reactions those who believe in him go for believe he's a victim of the system go for believe that only him can secure the future of israel only him can stand visit the rabid new poutine and donald trump and other leaders
1:09 am
of the world look at them as an equal partner and those who believe that this man has created enough damage and should go home the way that it and you know is going either way that brings israel or support from the united states this is something the voters might have in their mind but it will not be in their first priority. so it spilled all observers as one of the tightest races there for years will be across the exit polls for the day incumbent benjamin netanyahu is believed to be set to be on track to become the longest serving leader there but it's not a done deal yet far from it there's a lot of voters still to go on that there's the country want change or keep the status quo will keep you posted. elsewhere the u.k. government claims it's going to have the toughest internet laws in the world in a plan outlined in the online harms white paper it suggests penalizing or even blocking websites that fail to take potentially harmful content covering everything
1:10 am
from child abuse to disinform ocean next is probably void a report says tuesday morning there are fears that when there's a regulation there's also censorship. too much freedom can be dangerous that's the message from the u.k. government which has unveiled ambitious new plans to avis leave their safest corner of the internet the country that's famous for bringing in mary poppins is aiming to be the world's best online nanny we're putting a legal duty of care on these companies to keep users safe and if they fail to do so toss punishments will be imposed. the era of social media firms regulating themselves is over it's time to do things differently it's time to keep our children safe so how is the british government going to make the u.k. the safest place to enjoy the net well for starters there are going to be some strict new rules any company that allows online interaction will be responsible for
1:11 am
their users safety as well as the content that appears on their services in the most obvious examples that will mean purging illegal material related to terrorist and child sexual exploitation and abuse and if companies fail to clean up their act the likes of facebook and twitter will be put on the naughty step by a new independent regulator for the internet companies will face substantial fines for failing to pull down dangerous or extremist materials if the fines don't work bosses of the offending firms could be liable to criminal prosecution and if that fails to web sites could be blocked entirely for u.k. internet users and that regulator should have teeth so we're going to consult not just on remedial notices on fines and that can be up to four percent of global turnover at the moment none of this is law yet they'll be twelve weeks of public
1:12 am
consultation only after that draft legislation will be drawn are up but there are already concerns over the prospect of tough new regulations talk of controlling online content normally goes hand in hand with accusations of censorship and this is no exception the government's proposals would create state regulation of the speech of millions of british citizens the government is using internet regulation as a blunt tool to try and fix complex societal problems if they will remove and replace . strict content and that means that a large amount of totally legal content discussions people would be able to have online will be removed and then the government says it wants to remove what it calls harmful content but who will be the arbiter of what stays out up and what goes down removing material that's not technically illegal could be a tough task so those social media companies will have to do two things first is to
1:13 am
set out filters cross the season to see just to show that they are doing whatever they can you know to to prevent material that could potentially cause serious harm to young children a lot of people in the second they will have to act in a speedy mother to any request to remove such material at the moment the government is still deciding whether the job of regulating should fall on the shoulders of a new independent body or an existing one like broadcast regulator off kong and when it comes to the big social media fans well like students craving more stringent discipline facebook has tentatively welcomed the plan for greater and government oversight with a caveat or to. these a complex issues to get right and we look forward to working with the government
1:14 am
and parliament to ensure new regulations are effective. the u.k. government says it wants to be a trailblazer but the question is how to implement stricter safety measures without restricting freedom of the internet there's so much come to know that you can just influence. well really anybody but especially the younger generation kids i would slightly maybe disagree i think the internet is something which is open and it was a good thing that it was always open and not regulated by any any form of government or whatever i think it's probably a good idea i think this is enough regulation around do i think that the internet music's regulation probably not it's an open source thing should be owned by the people i think is. a pretty good idea i think it's a good idea to have some protection in there but it depends how stringent how close they are. every day stuff to even radio host george galloway shows little optimism
1:15 am
over the internet regulator if introduced is going to be independent here. well it's all wrapped up in the pretty paper about the entirely justifiable fears that people have about the exposure of children to vile things on the internet people being encouraged to commit suicide and the spreading of terrorist and violent conduct and so on no one in their right mind would be opposed to that it's motherhood and apple pie the key is the point of spreading misinformation and fake news of this from the people who have specialized in misinformation and freak news for as long as i've been alive and much longer than that the iraq war was the acme of the product of misinformation and fake news coming from the state and being part of a by the press and media in this country so the regulator will

u.k. government to make sure that if they are to be requesting an extension that there is some kind of purpose for it but there is a plan for why either extending it and trace them is always try to emphasize that these extensions are technical extensions are there to sort of the process in the commons and in the lords can go through the pending of these negotiations with the labor party go. to the end of the thirtieth of june as already been put out there so that's probably if the talks are going well that will probably be the case if there's nothing forthcoming from out there it wouldn't surprise me if there was a long extension was at least threatened to the rest of the conservative party to keep the vote for this rather than to possibly have no president or. prime minister the breakaway bill considered kosovo's simply pledge total loyalty to the us to an official visit to detroit. oppositions are similar to what the us stands for and those on the ground know it's i am an american soldier on the ground
1:24 am
because who prime minister also told the media that washington must support kosovo in order to push back against russian influence in the balkans is a staunch supporter of the us and nato and in march even sacked a minister was critical of the military alliance his actions in the former yugoslavia but despite his allegiance to the us he maintains that kosovo was fully sovereign and pursues its own policy today kosovo partially recognised and disputed state unilaterally declared its independence from serbia in two thousand and eight following decades of tensions between albania and communities in the region one political analyst we spoke to says america's clearly pulling the strings in kosovo . kosovo is clearly. u.s. an american protectorate today and heard in ages telling the truth he is an american soldier and he even added executing orders so i think you can be more clear than what his job is today or what kosovo represents to the u.s. and what it really is in the balkans today an american protectorate he wants to give the image of being an independent country don't forget that today kosovo is not recognized by five seventh of humanity china doesn't recognize kosovo india
1:25 am
russia. spain the vatican doesn't even recognize kosovo as an independent country so he's trying to fight for that but if the end he's still remaining the puppet of the americans and he says it himself. check it out he took over so much more from us as it happens rather club if a now that's the news update from out international here in moscow money was given our delight to be chosen for this update of the great tuesday. in a world of big partisan movie 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 smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bad and shouting
1:26 am
past each other it's tough for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. while this is a boom bust broadcast in a realm. world in covering the world of business and finance and the impact on us all i'm since one phillip of our children of washington glad you're on board coming up is in the spotlight across the globe as major moves on the topic are happening on both sides of the atlantic conservative commentator steve logs on to help us delve into this data plus the chinese demanding

1:28 am
legally liable for the content carried on their platforms all of this of course is being done in theory to combat the spread of violent and extremist content false information and harmful material aimed at children again that's what we're told the concerns of mass shooting experts and those who want greater regulation kicked into high gear after the recent terror attack in new zealand aimed at muslims the shooter live stream that massacre on facebook and as in many other recent cases posted an extremist manifesto that cited online extremist influencers and then repeated their rhetoric. well meanwhile today the european commission's high level expert group on. artificial intelligence published its ethics guidelines for trustworthy the commission's work attempted to establish ethical principles on human rights and really there were four ethical principles here number one respect for human autonomy number two prevention of harm three fairness and for explicit billet but according to access now the european commission created

1:30 am
fairness in machine learning and and making. a fairer and more transparent and also discuss whether to work on military applications for a so basically to give every google project and the proper security and scrutiny really i guess in going over them before they before they approve them along the lines of what you discussed is going on in europe yes so at this point you know for the week that it lasted employees seem to be fine with the idea of the board in general until there was an announcement made about the appointment of kay coles james so why was that particular name something that created this huge uprising other than the conservative connection well it's to me it's the conservative connection you know the bias against conservatives that we see over and over and over again more than twenty three hundred employees of google signed a petition against.
