to. a very warm welcome to you watching our c international with me thinking aaron . the u.s. government has ordered all non-emergency staff to leave iraq over an alleged threats coming from forces controlled by iran earlier we discussed the alleged iranian threat without his ana hawkins. seems now although that he's have reached new heights the u.s. has issued a security alert all its non-emergency personnel in iraq asking them to immediately depart from the u.s. embassy in baghdad and from the consulate bill that's an order that relates to all non-emergency personnel now why the sudden panic well this security alert mentions no specific threats or reasons u.s. officials have of course previously referred to what they describe as substantial threats to personnel relating to reign activity in the region in particular there iranian proxies in both iraq and syria it's unclear though as to what exactly these

threats are or indeed why the threat level has jumped now at what is quite clear is that the u.s. does want to show it's taking things seriously and that there is a clear and present danger from iran or its proxies to americans in the region we'll see what happens 9 with iran if they do anything it will be a very bad mistake if they do anything i'm hearing a little stories about iran if they do anything they will suffer greatly we'll see what happens with the right of course u.s. forces and other u.s. workers in the region do face a level of background threat it's a volatile area rife with conflict and armed groups on all sides of hostilities nevertheless though officials haven't explained these recent developments and how any sort of iranian threat would actually manifest itself to harm u.s. personnel tensions were wrapped up last week when the u.s. deployed an aircraft carrier group complete with bombers to the region iran has described all such moves as psychological warfare. stating that they're not looking for confrontation or war but they would respond to anything they viewed as u.s.

aggression that some. view rather echoed by washington as well now the route that these recent troubles this reason this collation was of course trumps withdraw from iran nuclear treaty that was criticized roundly by the other signatories party to that agreement it was followed by the threats of sanctions saber rattling and rhetoric. on all sides now germany and the other than several suspended their military training operations in iraq interesting enough also citing the risk of potential attacks from iranian proxies although i do have to out the german defense ministry have also added there's no concrete threat once again and the situation is of international concern to many countries moscow one states may have received no sort of reassurance from what compare on resolving these tensions they are predicting an escalation in the gulf in the coming weeks and months certainly no sign of things cooling down any time soon

a member of the baghdad security committee says iraq is not facing any danger from iran despite claims from the u.s. it is no sign of the internal threats or any challenges as we see it from internally in iraq the problem between iran and the united states just seems to still outside the gates or outside the walls of iraq isn't. just see to this matter it is considered here. a show of will between the 2 countries the 2 are 2 powers and we don't hear in iraq we don't believe that there will be a real. war between the 2 sides we think it's just. a war of words despite the security concerns a senior general in the u.s. led coalition in syria and iraq has questions the idea of

a heightened threat level artie's kate part which has more. the does seem to be rather a difference of opinion a breakdown in communication between the u.s. military central command and the coalition's 2nd in command over the threat posed by iran though there's been no increased threat from iranian backed forces in iraq and syria we're aware of their presence clearly. and we monitor them along with a whole range of others because that's the environment we're in we're british major general chris cake of the coalition's deputy commander for strategy and information seems to refute the trumpet ministrations claim iran is mobilizing groups in iraq and syria to attack american forces with his comments also seem to contradict the claim terrine is an escalating threat u.s. national security adviser john bolton has long promoted action against iran but the british general says there's little to fear there are a range of threats to american and coalition forces in iraq or syria we most of

them all about forces is clearly one of them. and i'm not going to go into the detail of it but there are a substantial number of militia groups in iraq and syria and we don't see any increased threat from many of them at the station press to explain the discrepancy gekas seem to limit his earlier remarks to a group of militia in iraq called the popular mobilization forces while some are backed by iran but the coalition considers them compliant yet later a u.s. military central command made a terrifying statement stressing iran is a threat well if both a senior british commander and america's central command share the same intelligence have similar information on terrorist locations airstrikes and danger zones how can i give statements that are so different the u.k.'s ministry of defense has distanced itself from the remarks made by the british major general claiming he spoke in the capacity of a military officer in the u.s.

led coalition in iraq and syria it added that his remarks speak about a. specific area not the overall geopolitical situation in the region major general great guy was speaking about a very specific area in which the u.s. led operation inherent resolve operates he wasn't speaking about the wider geopolitical situation in the region but considering the specific area he's talking about is iraq and syria i think his words might hold some weight because for the last few decades every time the alliance fights together so you always see caution from the british side while the americans tend to be more gung ho they share the same intelligence and if they're too glaring contradictions it doesn't really look good for the coalition obviously one of them is lying or at least it seems to be that there is clear misinformation from one side and iran also dominated discussions in the russian resort of thought she president putin and his foreign minister met with officials from china the u.s. and the european union will bring you up to date on those talks later in the

program. the u.s. attorney general has launched an investigation into possible misconduct relating to the report caleb maupin picks up the story. since 2016 the democrats have been pushing an investigation of donald trump for allegedly colluding with russia in order to win the $2016.00 elections well now the report is out and the verdict is no collusion and at this point it looks like cable news will not stop the noise about trump and russia despite the report being released well now we've got a new investigation to cover it seems the republicans are now pushing to investigate the investigators u.s. attorney john durham he is not a rookie by far he investigated the cia and revealed that they had destroyed tapes and evidence of their torture program he also investigated the f.b.i.'s relationship with mafia boss whitey bulger so when it was announced that he would look into whether or not federal officials broke the law when investigating donald

trump the democrats got antsy so did former f.b.i. director james calming and feared personally i feared as a citizen investigate what investigate that investigations were conducted what would be the crime you'd be investigating so it's a terrible cycle to start perhaps the f.b.i. does have a reason to be concerned after all they did send an informer who posed as an assistant in order to meet with trump's aide now this informer stephon helper has a long history in fact he was involved in cia spying during the 1980 elections trump says that his campaign was spied on however those who oversaw the operation strongly object to that wording you know. the dictionary definition of spying surveillance or spying a term i don't particularly like it's not a term of war used by intelligence people that has a negative connotation of a rogue operation out of control not in compliance with the war and that's not the

case at all now let's not forget that the feds clung to the now discredited steeled ca in order to apply for a warrant to surveil donald trump now a full 10 days before they applied for the warrant they were already questioning christopher steele's credibility and here's some language from a memo that surfaced there is a technical human operation run out of moscow targeting the election payments to those recruited and made out of the russian consulate in miami it is important to note that there is no russian consulate in miami. but the intel community presented christopher steele as being credible when they applied for a warrant to spy on trump now durham will no doubt be looking into whether or not that is legal now let's also not forget that chuck schumer waived his fist on behalf of the american spying agency's take on the intelligence community they have 6 ways from sunday at getting back atcha everything related to the trump russia investigation seems to be widely contested the words presented by one side are

presented as falsified by the other side and amid all these allegations of dishonesty biased partisanship we're expected to believe by both wings of the establishment that what they are saying about russia and their allegations that it meddled in the 2016 elections is absolutely true. well i guess the american people will have to decide what they want to believe caleb mup and r.t. new york and it's going on a student says there is a little public appetite to question the russian meddling aren't narrative. they all know there's no evidence of republicans democrats. bar i know that there are a lot of americans who have same view i do want to know where the evidence is. but i think the you know the is the establishment the media both political parties. they're all saying one thing and i don't know that the american people will ever

see it will they demand it like to think that they would but i'm i'm afraid i don't believe i'm afraid this is just going to go on and on and on and pump a 0 bolton. in the administration the democrats the republicans in congress the media they're all being the same drum and they're all lying and we just have to hope the. president will pull back. to see. u.s. department of commerce has placed the chinese tech giant way on the trade blacklist this comes off to donald trump declared a national emergency to protect national computer networks from so-called phone sarees. foran of the series are increasingly creating and exposing vulnerabilities in information and communications technology and services which store and communicate vast amounts of sensitive information the executive order says that

these foreign adversaries are a major national security threat of course china has said the there has been no evidence that while weight does not follow every country's laws and that huawei worked directly with the chinese government which is what the u.s. is a very much concerned about this comes days after the u.s. and china failed to meet a trade deal intellectual property theft has been a huge concern of the united states from china now the u.s. has threatened time and time again countries who continue to use while way products these chinese products and have said that they will row back on sharing intelligence with these countries who continue to do business with them australia and japan a so far have been 2 countries who have it here to the u.s. and not using a way however just recently the u.k. and germany said that they would allow 5 g.'s a huawei with limited access into their countries and the u.s. has already been angered by this information the u.s.

bans this chinese company from doing business here in the u.s. and this can also delay then 5 g. in the race for tech and the u.s. really banning while way is critical here as china continues to fight that race for 5 g. meanwhile some activists are claiming that 5 g. poses more than just security concerns a group of protesters gathered in the u.s. state of maryland schooling for tougher regulations. there have been over 2000 independent peer reviewed studies that have showed that wireless radiation migrate radiation may not be safe i say let's follow what europe is doing with her cautionary prince of all let's prove that this is all safe and then let's move ahead because we have a responsibility to our children i realised that the public was completely unaware of what 5 g. was and what was coming down the pike or we're calling not for. no technology we

are calling for safe technology president trump executive order did not specifically mention huawei but journalist dave lindorff says the chinese was clearly the target. well i think it's pretty much talking about huawei and the 5 g. network that they offered that you know people would like to install in the u.s. and. you know the concerns about back doors that can be put in or you know ways of monitoring people who are using their devices or their switching systems so that that's the concern that's been expressed the way i see it is that trump lakes to create a. you know a situation where there's a crisis and then he can back down if he gets you know what he wants which in this case would be a deal with china that more favorable to the u.s.

so if he takes this huge company that has huge market potential in the united states and says we're not going to let you in that's a big blow to china on top of the terrorists that we're just imposed and you know if china really freaks out over it trump can then say ok well you know give us a better deal and maybe i'll you know stop worrying so much about what way well realistically i think you know if you think about the united states which put had apple and i think microsoft put back doors in the computers that they were manufacturing so that they could monitor americans and also others who bought their equipment. you know that it can be done and. so you know the united states is actually speaking from experience because it does that kind of thing that's because in today's time who told to block

a train with confidence about that story and more thought to count all. if we ever need an anti-war movement it's obviously no dramas hyper aggressive foreign policy faces little resistance in the mainstream media in fact numerous liberal news outlets function as a cheering section for the president where is the moral outrage. whatever the politicians do business going to work around it is stupid to support a politician who say they're going to impose a tax proposal regulation because the redskin just move right around it is easy as pie if you're listening and you want to be wealthy want to be a rich understand that if you know how to read a balance sheet maybe you know how to read the recent legal guidelines you can be

rich it's almost like falling off a log if you can't figure that out because you either cannot read or you are incapable of simple math that's it that's the bottom line. welcome back paris's hosted a summit on countering online extremism in the wake of the christ shootings in new zealand's part of the focus has been on facebook which fell to prevent the terrorists from live streaming the massacre the social media giant has now announced a new one strike policy anyone sharing violent content without context will be blocked facebook has also pledged $7500000.00 for research to detect bond contents new zealand's prime minister called it

a good 1st step. social media connects people and so we must ensure that in our terms to prevent harm that we do not compromise then target all pillar of society that is freedom of expression but that does not include the freedom to broadcast mass murder and so new zealand will present a call to action in the name of christ church asking both nations and private corporations to make changes to prevent the posting of terrorist content online to ensure its efficient and fast removal and to prevent the use of live streaming as a tool for broadcasting terrorist attacks just to remind you back in march a gunman killed 51 people in 2 mosques in christchurch about 1500000 copies of the video were posted on facebook in the 24 hours that followed the live stream. we heard from privacy activist bill new media analyst lot lionel and anti terror expert jennifer braden they gave us their views on efforts to ban violent content on social media. you have an army not just with facebook but with twitter there's

an army of contractors employees and other people who are there to immediately get it off right away as has been stated this happens with people that espouse certain political opinions and other ideologies and so now we're talking about you know we're talking about getting off far more egregious things they have this technology not only do they have that they have hundreds upon thousands of employees of contractors of people whose jobs it is to sit there and to see what's coming up and the moment something that is violent that is agree just that is horrific comes up they can shut it down and media only monitoring no moderating in real time what these videos are and what becomes and is funding some research to try and improve their ability to detect this in real time with sort of automated means which is absolutely necessary given the volume of content but the technology simply isn't up to it yet and that we need to go a long way to improve the technology so that we can have a better or do a better ability to moderates in real time using some form of automation the idea

of somebody actually showing in broadcasting real time the slaughter of human beings i make it even simpler what if this was an actual real time live stream of child pornography nobody would be even debating this i would say you've got to fix this technology and now this is nothing to do with freedom of expression nothing to do with the dissemination of ideas in no way does it violate and by the way very quickly facebook has the most incredible celerity what it comes to shutting down and immediately knocking somebody off who are spouses a poll a little opinion just by merely supporting somebody so i don't want to hear anybody tell me that the technology is not there or there's no way to monitor this because let me tell you something if this war is something that was contrary to the zuckerberg world view. would be awful for anybody even thought so they're dragging

their feet it's nonsense and they know exactly what has to be done and they're simply not doing it to me to recognize the fact that a 1000000 copies were taken down effectively and we need to actually take our ads off to facebook the fact that it did take down so many different copies what do we do if there is an event that is not necessarily being filmed by the perpetrator but it's already being filmed by hundreds of thousands of other people be it the olympics or the world carp or the whole joy any large gathering which is already being filmed i mean we had a pipe bomb go off at the atlanta olympics that killed 2 people and injured a 100 if we had had small bones back then there would have been any number of different videos being all being shot civil tenuously and i say dealing with all those in real time would be almost impossible but those were the pope of perpetrators do you punish them is that reporter do you allow that what about people who were filming atrocities in miami more they're doing genuine reporter do

you allow that if it appears to be atrocious attacks and therefore we actually have to be slightly more realistic than saying oh facebook's got the technology it could do it come on get you move get a move on there at a far more complicated challenges. 3 days of high profile talks and wrapped up an impression result city of sochi on tuesday the russian president met with the u.s. secretary of state with venezuela syria and iran up for discussion and speaking at a press conference alongside the austrian leader president putin gave his view on how washington is playing the iran card. makes the decision to withdraw from any kind of a deal everyone will forget that the us initiated the collapse of the deal and global opinion will be iran's fault i've said this to iran on many occasions i don't think they have any reason to withdrawal from the deal huge 3 days here in sochi very big talks high profile talks 1st we had the chinese foreign minister

then the u.s. secretary of state today the president a lot of topics almost every major crisis in the world now was discussed here of course they talked about iran. ukraine. was in the middle east syria yemen they talked about financial markets about oil about gas you know all sorts of things but of course front and center was iran because it is really getting into the dangerous phase now the phase where everybody fears an escalation and today putin was asked about what russia plans to do to help resolve this crisis. among them when you find brigade i cannot just go around saving everything that is around us we have played our part and we're ready and willing to play this part in future but it depends not just on us but on our

partners on the europeans on the u.s. and on iran itself. the europeans the russians and the chinese have similar views in the arena in crisis they believe it's gone too far and that the best option for the world for all the countries involved is to stick to the iranian nuclear deal of $2015.00 and even the europeans have called what the united states is doing is dangerous and provocative of the person i have is that any additional pressure on iran is only going to undermine political relations even further no matter how much we argue about the probability of this happening if the u.s. continues putting pressure on iran ilesa the risks of a crisis as happened in iraq several years ago and in europe no one wants that to happen unfortunately there is no easy solution to the radian crisis but they they at least talk about it not by the way was the take away yesterday when might compare with the u.s.

secretary of state visited today vladimir putin said that you know he he now has a sense that there's some willingness in washington to repair restart relations with russia their greed yesterday that you know they disagree on many things they also agree to start repairing various communication channels hotlines for example counterterrorism intelligence financial political. putin was also asked about a potential meeting with donald trump and he replied that at the g 20 summit if the americans a willing if they want to start serious serious you know take serious steps towards repairing relations russia is always willing. ukraine has offered to free a journalist working for a russian news agency as part of a prisoner exchange with moscow however since he has ukrainian was arrested in kiev func charges of treason russia's presidential human rights council has expressed

concern over his treatment journalists and public. as rallied outside the ukrainian embassy in moscow to support a journalist is the head of the are a news agency is ukrainian he was imprisoned in 2018 accused of supporting separatists in eastern ukraine donbass region at the time he appealed to russian president vladimir putin for support asking to be made a russian citizen. yes you want your friends today it's a year since our colleague was imprisoned on a monstrous charge only because he carried out his journalistic work it is a shameful page in the history of modern ukraine we hope that the new president will dimmers alinsky will find the strength and be able to rest this shameful beach from the history of modern ukraine right now tomorrow will be the start of korea's 2nd year in the ukrainian torture chambers without medical assistance in conditions equivalent to torture this brings shame on the country shame on legal authorities and shame on ukraine and society and we do hope that there will be forces inside

ukraine that can say pick up the keys to his cell and set the journalists free as well as all the headlines for this hour but we're back in 30 minutes with the latest. 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 the fresh perspective i'm used to suppressing. you. i'm going to talk about football narvi or else you can think i was going to go.
