clans making berlin a hotbed of ethnic crime. a very warm welcome to the program from all of us here at r t h two in moscow thanks for joining us this hour. anticipation is growing over the upcoming talks between bottom of putin and kim jong un the kremlin has confirmed they will take place in the city of let us talk in russia's forty s. this thursday moscow n.p.n. yang have been keeping the details of the first ever meeting between the russian and north korean leaders secret. lot of us talk following the preparations. on any other day you would see a beautiful bridge behind my shoulder but now it's all completely covered in fog in fact the whole city of vladivostok is covered in fog which is i guess a perfect display a perfect reflection of all the secrecy surrounding the summit of vladimir putin

and cam john until pretty much the very last day neither the location nor the date were confirmed every little detail was a top secret all that we heard from the north korean side was that the talks are due soon it's also. the chairman of the korean people sponte and supreme leader of our nation. will be visiting russia at the invitation of freshman president vladimir putin during the visit there will be a summit between conjunct and the russian president and here i am in the city of light of all stock where the people are completely in the dark about what's going on they're not completely sure whether they'll be able to get to work and the days that are coming something else that's being talked about a lot is that kim john is heading to vladivostok on the training that was always used by his father and you know walk before that train enters into russian

territory even wheels will have to be changed because of the different size of the railways and the two countries but it is also believed that kim john sr wasn't on that train she is believed to be here already and vladivostok making preparations in advance for her brother and let me remind you that she's a kind of a peacemaker or someone who holds great influence over kim as it's believed she's often being cold vivanco of north korea she was present at the first historic unification meeting between pyongyang in seoul last. february during the winter olympics in south korea some people in this city have even said that they've already seen the limo of kim john and another rumor is that they literally had to dig under the gate of the local railway station to make sure that this vehicle can

squeeze through so this is going to be chairman kim's first visit to russia his father though kim jong il visited russia three times last time it happened in two thousand and eleven obviously i can't help mentioning the political climate surrounding this meeting first of all i have to tell you that lately pyongyang expressed dissatisfaction with u.s. diplomats and the even demanded that u.s. secretary of state mike pumpin step down as the top american negotiator when it comes to contacts with north korea they want someone more suitable even in the case of possible resumption of dialogue with the u.s. i wish i'd done a counterpart would not be but some of the person who is more careful a mature in communicating with mr pompeo though insists that he's still in charge we also have to remember that the last long awaited meeting between kim john thune

and donald trump in hud noite ended without any agreement being signed ever since then washington got back to sending out tough signals to north korea and it appears that chairman kim wasn't really happy with that and this could be the reason why he's now arriving here and vladivostok and the far east of russia. writer and broadcaster married to jobs you told us the reason behind kim's move was . i think there are probably two reasons why he's going to russia one of them certainly is to send a very strong signal to the united states that north korea has alternatives other possibilities better relations with the united states aren't its only prospect for the future so i think there's that on the one hand on the other i think it's quite interesting. the american north korean

detente those two summits happened without really any reference or. consideration of russia. and obviously all you have to do is look at a map to realize that. north korea affects russia's security quite as much as it does america's security and maybe a bit more so i think it's entirely natural that. putin would want to meet kim and five so first that russia would want to be involved if there's going to be any strategic change in the. islamic state has claimed responsibility for the easter sunday bombings in sri lanka which took three hundred and twenty one lives it comes after the country's government said to radical islamist groups were behind the attacks i discussed the issue with artist on quarter. isis's declaration came not very long after sri lanka's deputy defense minister said the bombings may have

been in retaliation to the christ church shootings last month and after an initial investigation officials said that these two to islamic terrorist groups that may or may not be connected to isis could have been working within a larger international terrorist network now the series of bombings that took place on easter sunday had a death toll now at three hundred twenty one confirmed deaths and another five hundred injured. the unicef even forty five children were among the victims now sri lankan authorities were actually warned a full two weeks before this series of bombings took place and the cabinet spokesperson has already taken to apologize for not picking up on the tip that led to the intelligence agencies they have been on the fourth of april international intelligence agencies informed us that such an incident could take place there detail group who is named christian churches in tourist destinations as the main targets as the government we are responsible for all of the story and we apologize to everybody let's go back to the claim that this attack was in retaliation for the

new zealand mass shootings what exactly was said there well as of right now it's the sri lankan authorities that are making that claim but we just actually heard a statement from the new zealand prime minister who said that the this claim hasn't actually been backed by solid and from intelligence information yet and just to remind our viewers about what happens in new zealand on march fifteenth a mosque and islamic center were shot up in christ church new zealand now fifty people were killed another fifty people were injured and the twenty eight year old shooter was a self described white supremacist his crimes in the mass shootings he committed are considered to be some of the deadliest a new zealand's history. this

is one of new zealand's kissed day i. i i i. the role of social media has been highlighted over both the attacks on sunday and in new zealand tell us more about that it's actually played a big part in both the case of christ church the shooter put up a. startling manifesto for the world to see across the internet and then he lived he live stream the first part of this terrorist attack and it actually took authorities quite a while to take it down off the internet and in the case of sri lanka authorities have actually already blocked major social media platforms facebook whatsapp instagram and you tube are among them with others included and this is part of the government's state of emergency declaration basically so it's really situations like this where the dilemma between freedom of freedom on the internet and the possibility of terrorists using it as

a weapon for evil comes to the forefront we spoke to the former head of the u.k. counterterrorism security office chris philips he thinks these attacks were prepared well in advance. to attack is clearly a long time in the planning and possibly even a month is probably not quite long enough to do that but of course what it will have done perhaps is change the attack locations so the attack was going to take place almost certainly where it took place that may have been influenced by the attack in new zealand what we do know is that intelligence agencies were aware that this was likely to happen someone somewhere you know somewhere across the world as provided intelligence which within the sri lankan or thirty's it seems to have gotten lost so he doesn't appear to have been acted on well enough and we had this this terrible attack what we've seen actually though is two countries sri lanka and new zealand both of which are generally very very peaceful most people to go to

those countries with say peaceful countries where these horrendous attacks have taken place. true longo's health minister had earlier said that a little known true long and hard line group was responsible for the attacks national is thought to have splintered from another islamist group his secretary was arrested for inciting hatred against buddhists in two thousand and sixteen. some members of that group initially accused of the bombings have been detained in russia's far east artie's maria for national joins in with the details now so maria what do we know so far. yes hi earlier in tuesday russia's federal security service announced that. several people reportedly involved in terror activity had been detained in russia in separate counterterrorist operations first in russia's far eastern region of pretty more you where the federal agents dismantled a former member south of a bigger islamist group known as. though he had

a poison mixtape jihadi group that sri lanka authorities believe is responsible for dadley easter attacks that killed hundreds the f.s.b. also claimed that the cell was apparently funded through international terrorism structures and that its members were planning to go to syria to fight on the side of jihad is still another operation in russia's sudden region in the caucasus region five other members of the so-called islamic state were detained who the f. is the says were planning a drone attack on federal security services and police offices in the region in a video showing that attention one of the guys at meeting these plans back to you r.t.s. maria finished i thank you for bringing us the latest. berlin has become home to some of the biggest clients in the world that's according to one of the city's most famous bodyguards michael curry is a world kick boxing champion and while he claims to favor multiculturalism he's

worried current migration policies have allowed gangs to thrive in the capital our sister channel in germany spent a day with him in berlin. if they have a knife they are ready to cut and kill if they have a girl ready to shoot. up their resume or everyone has to abide by. their firm malazan burly and like. show crew these are big families and well known in the criminal world but you can see all of them a criminal many have nothing to do with it. oh. look it will be. because i was there. because i was people off. it's not i've been in this is in the since nine hundred eighty two there's one though almost every family even if i don't know someone they've heard about me then

i'm a fan of multiculturalism i always be on very positively about it wasn't because many found themselves in the criminal world in tears the result was. we have to give these guys some credit the german government hadn't done enough to integrate and then obvious going to many of them couldn't get a job license for years and that's why they resorted to criminality. these clowns are closely tied to give us their like the whole you want to see anything like that in germany. they can bring together forty to fifty people in just half an hour before the. business in one thousand nine hundred ninety four

when their plan started expanding and their influence sideline. german troops and taking. control the hospital and foreigners now totally controlling or including drugs prostitution and she has the money. police has an investigative group that deals primarily with organized crime among families on arab origin as well as abroad conducting intelligence activities including coming into contact with potentially dangerous criminal. government policy completely failed your thirty's totally is to me that is the situation it's or they're trying to minimize the damage but it's not an easy thing to do.

by cooperate with police he gave them the opportunity to be independent i don't depend on any client my clients of. facebook cars a state department official as they social media giant faces growing scrutiny over its links to the u.s. government and that after the break. what politicians do to. put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or some want to be rich. to white folks this is what the three of the people. interested in the why.

would call make this manufactured consensus public well. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the final. gifts and be the one percent. we can all middle of the room sit. room. welcome back questions are being raised over links between facebook and the us government social media giant announced it's hired the us state department's legal

advisor as its general counsel and v.p. of communications jennifer newstead will oversee facebook's global legal functions he said has had to have a long career in u.s. government with both state and justice departments she was part of the team which drafted the controversial patriot act expanding government surveillance powers after the nine eleven attacks. the new appointment comes amid unprecedented pressure on facebook to tackle the spread of misinformation. don of takes a closer look at the firms fact checking and fears of trustworthiness. for the past two years facebook has been trying to convince the public it is taking a stand against fake news the program has been battered by controversies from criticism over how it's implemented to claims the impact it makes is little to none so how does facebook fact check news books well it doesn't instead it effectively has outsourced this function to a seemingly obscure journalism school. the

pointer institute is a nonprofit based in florida it's nondescript anonymous in almost every way except for the fact that any fact checking service willing to partner with facebook has to get pointers approval and this is the type of testimonies they uploaded on their you tube channel journalists to this important point or does for journalists is invaluable it's just so hard to separate. who i am as a reporter from. your point it was done for me. the. world spends so much time. training researching and for journalists to look at journalism as a true wow i wonder how many more journalism students out there talking about their school like it's

a sect they joined but so far pointer has licensed around sixty partners from all over the world good to go to fact check for facebook and many of them have a bit more in common than appetite for truth the thing they share is who they get their money from fact checkers from the u.s. the u.k. africa latin america the philippines and the pointer itself have been funded by the open society foundation and a media network either. one of them or both together they've donated millions to fact checkers so what are they and why are they so eager to invest. now the open society foundation was founded and is run by none other than george soros who invested more than thirty two billion dollars into the foundation and

this open society foundation is known to do exactly that open societies or meddle in the affairs of countries all over the world having proven to be a political weapon or source as for the a media network it belongs to another billionaire pierre media the creator of e-bay and just like soros is brainchild the network has been deeply involved in geo politics providing a steady flow of money for america's soft power ventures from funding opposition in other countries to creating puppet media outlets and there are plenty of other donors bestowing their wealth upon pointer and co not excluding the u.s. state department i expect to be there will be a very close interplay between the facebook checkers and the state department and that they will be really very respectful of the state department's point of view after all they're one of their paymasters so i think they will go out of their way

not to contradict anything the state department says and to basically try to then discredit anybody who might be criticizing them so fortunately this is the antithesis of what most people think of when they think of freedom of media or freedom freedom of information now point and it's platoon or fact checkers say that one of their binding values is impartiality but sometimes that veil is quite easy to see through and i mean let me bring up one chart for you it was showcased at a separating fact. from fake news panel by point and i mean by different nisshin here the mainstream media and mainstream news are presented here as a victim and it's presented as an inherently one hundred percent truthful entity just cannot be fake news here and that's despite the fact that mainstream outlets have repeatedly embarrassed themselves with faulty reporting from c.n.n. to buzz feed ironically the outlet behind this graph but after all these stories

record suggests neither the u.s. government nor the sorest like bunch spend their billions out of pure philanthropy and what this is clearly aimed at is to restrict the availability of alternative sources of information what they do is defend the establishment narrative and try to discredit alternative to this to the point of views which then they will declare to be non-factual or fake news according to their own fact checkers which are very very biased meanwhile digital rights group the electronic frontier foundation is calling on facebook to crack down on the use of fake accounts by law enforcement agencies. facebook's practice of taking down these individual accounts when they learn about them from the press or from. insufficient to discern what we believe is a march logs iceberg beneath the surface we only discovered the existence of law

enforcement fake profiles months if not years soft investigation has concluded u.s. immigration and customs enforcement agents reportedly use facebook in a sting operation officials created a fictional college called the university of farmington which promoted in roman a foreign students after checking the background of those that applied they ended up arresting around one hundred and thirty people u.s. government agencies insist their use of social media is essential but facebook disagrees. law enforcement or florida keys like everyone else are required to use their real names on facebook and we make this policy clear on our public facing law enforcement guidelines page operating fake accounts is not allowed and we swiftly act on any violating accounts active us tighe barry told us no fake account should be above the law. the united states law enforcement does not only by only facebook laws it in it by elites our own federal state local municipal laws the federal

government the local governments even vigilante groups on the on the in the border states continuously violate a sovern human rights who are undocumented people and people seeking asylum here in this country i think it's become a period the united states of america wants to be owner controller of the internet but when you have an organization such great magnitude as facebook that seems to be complying secretly with u.s. spy agencies and law enforcement agencies you're going to get in a bad outcome there are no good big in that there's only me. that's a news break down for this hour and that's all for me as well today but we're not neil harvey will be taking over in about thirty minutes thank you for tuning in where every maybe.
