as a country before we as a society realized that this is not working and we actually do something about. this morning a dead heat in israel with most of the votes counted the still no clear winner in the poll for prime minister the two front runners have both declared victory. donald trump far as a fresh european allies pledging to hit city even goods with an eleven billion dollars in trade. should african-americans in the u.s. be paid reparations for the suffering of the descendants of the slaves we put that question to our guest. just because somebody is green day's dose of doesn't mean i'm responsible for you know who did it you should have been able to buy they were alive the government had literally buried it paid out everybody else and turned it back on the black people in america all.

from russia broadcasting around the world this wednesday morning and watching our international live with me kevin and i they're welcome now then so in those headlines in more detail israel in focus very much first it's been a real heated night there too with ninety five percent of the vote counted and still no clear winner for the prime minister's seat both main contenders parties of incumbent leader benjamin netanyahu and former general benny gantz won an equal number of seats in parliament this result in some confusion with both politicians declaring victory this morning. oh. this is a night of tremendous victory i was very moved to that the nation of israel once again and trusted me for the fifth time already tonight i have started talks with the heads of the right wing parties our natural partners i intend to be the prime minister of all israeli citizens right or left jews and non jews alike all israeli

citizens. so. i will be the prime minister of all and not just those who voted for us the faster we can form a government the faster we will be able to lead the state of israel ensure security on all fronts and return to a policy of deterrence. so she was not afraid for some of the votes already been counted let's go to a middle east correspondent paula slee ahead there paula what's next what is it like to be some real clarity on who is won here or who can form a coalition to move forward quickly. what we do expect that clarity to come in the coming hours at the same time it's now ninety seven percent of the votes that have been counted what we are seeing is as you say and they can make race between the incumbent israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and the main contender benny gantz not each of them stand with some thirty five seats out of one hundred twenty seat parliament this does however mean that neither has that sixty one seat that they need to form the majority government so the next few weeks will

be focused on coalition building and here netanyahu has a much better chance of forming a coalition the latest polls and looking at the results that we're seeing at the moment suggest that he could get sixty five seats so about what intents and purposes although it has been confusing from the early hours of this morning as to who actually has won this election with both benny gantz the former i.d.f. chief and the main it's on yahoo contained and that's on yahoo himself declaring victory it does seem as if netanyahu will be over when a proper day tuesday as good a visit and number of polling stations to talk to people there they didn't have it's. like social justice and wanting security but the overriding issue an overriding concern for these elections was almost as if it was a referendum on that on yahoo he if he wins another term in office will be the longest serving israeli prime minister ever and they need guns campaigned and the

slogan of change enough for the netanyahu makes him look for something different what we see from the results at this point is that this a number of israelis who actually want change but having said that there is a fair number who actually want the consistency of netanyahu and those people say look we know what we're getting he makes us feel secure and he's given us legitimacy on the international stage just a last point the turnout among arab israelis was traditionally lower than it has been we here in figures of around sixty one percent and it does point to an internal rift within the arab israeli political community but also a lot of disillusionment as to what this kind of election could bring and certainly these people will be very disappointed by these results it looks as if we're heading towards a right wing government as opposed to be alternative which guns was presenting which was a more centrist left coalition so over the next few weeks the focus here will be on coalition building but as i say all intents and purposes it does seem as if

netanyahu will win the premiership yet again. appreciated well it's. very no middle east politician. motorcar care that believes that although the guns proclaim victory is unlikely he's going to become probe minister. not cause any major changes. because god. barak the. poor you should be my biggest party you probably can do this if you have the free will part of the break you require. this would be the opposition so i didn't see any possibility so when major change is on the people's guns is the shake his party with two months ago. he is going to do all this no.

no nobody really knows what he wants he in his party has people from the right side of the political the people who do it so nobody knows will this party was except to keep kicking the out from the government. from the middle east political analyst automotive kadal there talking to us. hopefuls join the crowded field of democratic contenders to unseat president donald trump in twenty twenty an evening with a two year long special counsel investigation into alleged russian meddling in the twenty sixty elections failing to find any evidence of collusion some of the candidates are again bringing it to their campaign agenda as caleb maupin reports next though it's not resonating well with many american voters. as if the democratic presidential primary of two thousand and twenty wasn't already crowded enough we now have two more candidates throwing their hats into the ring both cham

ryan and eric small will say that their campaigns will give special attention to one particular issue russia you know who comes on the our social media and they come into our social media and they spin things to get us into these divided camps and most importantly the russians are going to do this again and the twenty twenty two election russia has been the obsession of many democrats ever since trump's twenty sixteen victory however there have been many voices calling on the russia haters to cool it down a little bit and the democratic party leadership seems to agree somewhat and i'm sure to the republicans hold. the focus here for this vicious cycle here. just a little. bit of this is the press on these issues so is nancy pelosi also a russian spy is she in on the vast conspiracy involving trump steve bannan putin boris and natasha take over the whole the zero to the us of a just in the only

people in town like new york bought a big wooden one ways custard pies the cut you did bedding bass both those of u.n. building well no most likely she's just seen the poll results american voters were polled on what they cared about the most russia or health care eighty percent said health care only eight percent said russia and c.n.n. polled its audience and it turns out that only thirteen percent say that they will be impacted in their decision in two thousand and twenty by bob mahler's report so we decided to go ask new yorkers how they feel we decided to give them five issues health care economy climate change gun control and the russia investigation. now we're going to have them go rank them in order of importance most important is health care. climate change and gun control.

and. all the other wonderful russia investigation economy economy and then russians as the ocean health care most gun control. will be other than swim in our climate change our economy climate change is third cutting means fourth in russia just gross investigation c climate change. gun control economy. when it was due to which there is the rush of a situation arose you have on health care. bill scared in literature investigations so perhaps talking about moscow golden kremlin intrigue is just a force of habit after all the cold war started way back in one thousand nine hundred forty six however if the democratic party wants to win elections perhaps they should search for a more effective message. r.t. new york what we're talking about the long run up to the next us elections a number of hot button issues are fodder public opinion to one of most

controversially should african-americans in the us be paid reparations for the suffering of the descendants who were slaves is a real hot topic democrat presidential contender cory booker announced a new bill on the issue then however a recent poll suggests only twenty one percent of voters would support move if adopted it would intel an official acknowledgment of the legacy of american slavery and compensation payments to those still affected by discrimination as a result. we have to recognize that everybody did not start out on an equal footing in this country and in particular black people have not. and so we have got to recognize that and do something about that and give folks a lift up i believe it's time to start the national full blown conversation about reparations so that we can as a nation do what's right and begin to heal there are massive disparities that must be addressed so we're going to do everything we can to put resources into

distressed communities and improve lives for those people who have been hurt from the legacy of slavery conservative commentator and he brian logan an attorney and author resurface and fought their respective corners on this. you could have identified the former slave master and a former slave or act in a moment but we're now winds are at fifty years past a particular point in time who is going to pay people who did not have slaves nobody i left a day in twenty nineteen was a slave back then so what do we gain pay for who is going to pay we're right again pay it's no more than a campaign promise from democratic hopefuls trying to get some kind of attention now your five economic restitution to those people now if i came into your house mr a.b.l. and i sell a thousand dollars from you and when i die or if i sell a million dollars from you and then i die would you say oh well reasoned guy so that money doesn't matter anymore no he would go talk to my children children are

still living off the benefits of that million dollars just because somebody has grand days dose of it doesn't mean i'm responsible for it if somebody is granddad was so you know a killer and then they found out one hundred years later you don't go after the kids and say ok you get to go to jail now or you get a pay back some money because of what your grandfather to punish him why they were left we want to focus on economic harm that was done to black people if we really break down with slavery was people were brought from across the water to work and that was free labor that what we have here in a race of years hundreds of years of systematic distant discrimination and shutting out of act economic access the black people and that has to be repaid if we're going to blame the government you as a whole you don't know everybody is a laugh right right and even no nobody's allowed right now it's only nineteen that was a lot of bathing and to and then i think about it is who's going to pay you're talking about a government the government is funded by the people would i mean to me that means

you will pay for it so how does it make any sense like i say it would have been more rational how many hands you are mostly a volunteer paper slave when were parades things would have been do which is at the end to slavery now right now it makes no sense to argue me it is no law. actually here america has never even study the effects of slavery on black people they never sat down and said we know that as the government we sanction this this makes this experience but we don't even know how far that experience reaches because no one's ever study it how much do we owe black people no one's ever studied it why because the government has literally buried it had it paid out everybody else and turned it back on the black people in america who hate it anyway well i do too long to just drive if you need a handy and language emulator out in tears. they pay that money when the hundred years. that's irrelevant the point is the how much you are going to get you don't

hear it too many years do you want your spouse of thousand years i'm going to say it won't point to be saber pass lavery we're having now because the buck stops here hopefully my generation will stand up and say the buck stops here so we don't have to go on with this any longer you know they're the sort of conversations that he does stuff we know you love to get involved with oh forget all our stories you can have your say and if you have a comment section on websites. or aids forty one has prostate talk and one of his website. or aids forty one has prostate talk and one is just waking up coming to the world thank you choosing the international whatever it is with the around the world let me update you on what you got coming up after the break when we come back the donald trump turns the trade war on europe big threatening to hit the block with billions in import tariffs we examine the ramifications of that one of the stories ahead.

you know world's big partners. yours it's time. to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream 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 troops the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. some want. to go right to be crooks this is what the three of the more people. interested in the why.

should. i get this out international from russia the us president has pledged to place tariffs with eleven billion dollars on e goods in response to the blog subsidies for the european aerospace giant look at and discuss the move and the reaction from europe with our correspondents shiela do bensky and peter all about. eleven billion dollars so it's not pay you know it's at all that is billion with a baby that double trumpet said he wants to place entire earth on goods coming from the european union into the united states of course when it comes to this presidential administration how was it announced through twitter. has adversely

impacted the united states which will now put terrorists on eleven billion dollars of aid new products the u.s. taking advantage of the u.s. on trade for many years it will soon stop so what type of things go to be affected by these tariffs if it gets approved by the will. trade organization and eventually goes through we're looking at different types of cheeses we're looking at lemons all over oil kashmir's sweaters not electrical wall clocks but the thing is this has nothing to do with cheese and almost certainly has absolutely nothing to do with not electrical wall clock not electrical war clocks this is all down to an ongoing dispute between the european airspace giant airbus and of course boeing the major u.s. air space giant there are big problems for boeing right now they've been involved in two fatal crashes in the last five months donald trump hope says despite the problems that boeing has been going through he stands behind the company

a great company it's a truly great company and hopefully they'll figure it out very quickly we have seen it throughout his career but in this presidential korea we saw just last year how he launched into china turkey and the european not promising tariffs on. steel imports into the united states he has said he wouldn't shy away from a trade war that certainly doesn't seem like he's willing to right now peter thank you for those details that peter all of us speaking to his life from berlin let's cross over to paris now and our correspondent shiela do penske and charlotte what has been the reaction from europe it did hear from the european commission it said it remains open to discussions with the u.s. but says it will hold those discussions as long as there are no preconditions to the e.u. the european commission has also said it will be speaking. arbitrator

to get them involved in this the commission is starting preparations so that the e.u. can promptly take action based on the arbitrator's decision on retaliation rights in this case the european union remains open for discussions with the united states providing these without. preconditions and a mf'er outcome we've also heard from the e.u. in regards to that figure that eleven billion dollar figure same for them that that is a grossly exaggerated figure and that's echoing what we've also heard from us which is course at the eye of the storm in regards to this we don't see no legal basis for this all this is leading to a necessary treat tensions and shows that the only reasonable solution in this long tree dispute is a settlement which is something we have said since the beginning meanwhile here in france we've been hearing for france's finance economy minister. he's been talking about the fact that they need to be a friendly solution to these trade wars between the e.u. and the u.s.

it doesn't look like that is something that's going to go down well. we are miss north stephen keim how he expects the e.u. to react which u.s. industries might target in response. it's trump is it totally different experience dealing with any any president previously those would bluster but then that had been negotiated by the diplomats this would have been almost decided by trump tweets so they know the only way to fight is to fight back directly and i'm pretty certain i will slap tariffs on american products and i might well go for the for the areas where america has a obvious advantage which is in computing design of computing maybe even intellectual property i mean i'm not trying to claim to live in billion worth of subsidy i'm sure that's vastly exaggerated but if you take a look at the level of contracts that boeing got over the last couple of years he's getting about twenty billion in contracts per year from the pentagon now we know anybody who produces the pentagon massively over process so fundamentally this is

a subsidy for boeing coming in through the military wing of america which is like us phylogeny than anything your opinion is strong it is about. a diplomatic spats brewing over a memorial at a former nazi death camp in poland russia is appealing to the european council after its bid today was rejected out of hand by war so when a coach an of his go. some a bore was a nazi run killing center and an intense secret very few survived to average talent and scream course. another unit arrived once they were already undressed they apparently understood where they were being taken naked and all in fear they ran away but where could

they run everyone rushed to the barbed wire fences and there they were met with the fire of machine guns and rifles many people died from the bullets the rest were driven into the gas chambers the fires were burning until late at night that's all flames illuminated the evening black sky with its terrifying lights the whole camp and the surrounding territory. like thunder the screams of people rode over the death camp six hundred people exhausted yearning for freedom rushed forward shouting her a in this single impulse the jews of russia and poland the netherlands and from the czech it's a vacuum in germany united it was only then that the tower guards realized that

something was wrong in the camp and opened fire. and like auschwitz there is nothing left of sabi bore the extermination camp was destroyed by the nazis after the uprising and trees planted to conceal evidence ever existed but there is concern that keep. if as history are now being over look the this is a matter for the whole of europe through in the so people come. russians dutch french there were lots of people from other countries and that's what you know this pain the loss of people who were tortured there and died so that we never repeated the polish government started construction plans back in two thousand and fourteen for a new visitor center at the site of the former death camp russia says that it was unfairly sidelines and the design of the museum especially as

a soffit soldier was behind the here royd group fold and this caper sabi war the committee behind the project includes representatives from slovakia the netherlands poland and israel as the construction of the museum moved forward paul and opened the betting for those who wanted to take part in setting up the museum interior but again all three obligations sound by russian museums all private entities were not approved by war sell polish russian relations are complicated and certainly when it comes to world war two they were complicated so i think the poles rather take control themselves of the narrative they're afraid of the russian narrative and they also don't want to give russia too much credit for liberating poland you can use history as a weapon historical amnesia some like paul and ministry of culture and national heritage say a logical decision the international steering committee maybe not in mississippi continuing the cooperation between its current members who have already worked

together for ten years in order to smoothly complete advance works on a new morial site the cultural standoff aside as high time average one as remembered for their suffering and bravery. we did a cochon of a reporting there while coming to a twenty six the more us wraps of the big world news stories from us r.t. international here in moscow we keep a close eye of course on the outcome of the currently tied very tight israel problems to real election in the coming hours as the position there becomes clear when the final votes counted last three percent now we hear. the post as well as the final results called just one of the many stories for across the future day as ever mean time for me as a thank you for watching what have you doing this wednesday around the world have a great day.

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 sit in the home fields where everything is familiar on the other i wanted a new challenge and a fresh perspective from time used to surprising to most of us all why not if you think. i'm going to talk about football not for you or else you can think i was going to go. by the way ways of the slide here. when we all make this manufacture come sentenced to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the financial clearing go around listen to the one percent of. the time we can all middle of the

room signals. go to. the real news is real world. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. and you'll see but i can't support this is you know you're just the first one to the finished goods conformal from the hundreds. that's awesome useful to do and to. see if it was national guard coming off.

the top. if. it's almost was a surprise of course most of. these critics one of the biggest musical. because the. machine into why for the smear. both of you those who. oppose someone. does a good spell if you will if that easy. do it in the sort of a mad crazy genius sort of a guy he believes in the first amendment. markets very brilliant

very brilliant individual believe i heard a story about how news will be difficult to get or some of the money was in second grade. he has an opinion he doesn't hide his feelings. i think more dubious is an outstanding person because he took on the most powerful agency in this county or you'll be listing. many look at some of the board analogies to mark was the day that when he was fighting the life. worth of family kind of thing we're still in iraq you know i mean it's. you know if something is shown and. we're going to. run as just or it.

doesn't mark spoke out against pull up some on his shift but i didn't like bargain very much absolutely how there been times when i really really thought he would be a great guy absolutely. john mark doogan i'm a former marine former cop turned.
