may 1 is kevin and in those headlines in more detail for us than the push for a negotiated resolution to the venezuelan crisis is picking up steam representatives of president nicolas maduro an opposition leader are expected to meet for a 2nd round of talks in norway later this week the return to the negotiating table comes despite the earlier hawkish stance of some western leaders he goes down off looks at what could be behind america's apparent easing of plans for a military intervention. to leave i swear to formally soon the duties of the national executive as president of venezuela i and that was how it all began a long and put old road to the chaos and mayhem venezuela's in today it wants needs local politician overnight short into political stardom and with the u.s. on his side it seemed one why don't you simply couldn't lose. i'm mike

pence the vice president of the united states the united states supports the courageous decision by one gado old a bit of a cringe a way to demonstrate your allegiance yet many more countries followed suit brazil has just issued a note recognizing one why do as venezuela's president one why do 1. 11 door in europe why the uk you know why though venezuela began to devour itself from the inside to one by protest streets flooded people on mass reassuring maduro of their support all venting their anger at a president they call a dictator. meanwhile washington unrolled itself from threats to sanctions to even seemingly harmless things like aid it try to slip the balance of power in favor

over there man why don't i wish him a long quiet retirement on a pretty beach far from venezuela and the sooner he takes advantage of that the center is likely to have a nice quiet retirement on a pretty beach rather than being in some other beach area like guantanamo an unconventional holiday but among the mildest ideas in america's rhetoric what would make you use the u.s. military in venezuela it's an option we continue to say and we always will for the day all options are on the table all options are on the table all options are on the table all options are on the table because they always are but with all that commotion in why dosed camp would have made during what was he up to. venice well the incumbent leader was willing to go all in conventional to trying to a to kill 8 his readiness to talk it out with his new rival program if you go i am committed to incent. national dialogue today tomorrow and doing well i'm committed

and personally ready to go if i have to go and i know it's going to the top of mt pico humbles at 3 in the morning i will have to make it all go away kid on foot a car by motorcycle then and we must be very clear to the world and to this regime and nobody will take part in this fake dialogue. but back then why do it was feeling too good to grace's arch nemesis confronted with the blatant refusal by duro klang to the 2nd best thing he had and has apart from the support of a good share of his people the military it stood strong with the dural despite what you do and washington's efforts to encourage defection. the president imposter tried to make it look like things were going his way. the armed forces were standing behind the people and the constitution but very soon his

boastful overstatement was clear desertions worst paradip local and way below the critical mass needed to have the dura worried and all that leads us here to a complete stalemate why don't has won the battle for the hearts and minds on capitol hill for the embassies for the right to be called president of venezuela on the diplomatic papers of 3rd party countries but not his own and this demonstrates just how capable he is of bringing change inside a country he says is the leader of would you like to see them into very intimate militarily your office and i as president in charge of the national parliament will evaluate all necessary options however cautious it may be an official evaluation of an international intervention is as good as an open call for one but with the us no longer looking as trigger happy as before why do it has sent his emissaries. to

talk with durham no longer too good for that and the u.s. apparently wants confidence a quick power play would lead to victory now has learned that all or doesn't elect presidents because down of there were some in washington appear to be convinced about a peaceful resolution to the venezuelan cross' the former presidential hopeful and staunch war hawks senator lindsey graham is over catered for a full blown military intervention and urged donald trump to take inspiration from an earlier u.s. invasion. i would do exactly what reagan did i would give cuba an ultimatum to get out of venezuela lot if they don't i would let the venezuelan military know you got to choose between democracy and the doura and if you choose my door and cuba we're coming after you this is in our backyard well under president reagan back then u.s. forces invaded the caribbean nation of grenade there in 1903 in a bid to replace the government there and counter communist influence in the region but there are glaring differences between now and then that senator graham may have

overlooked for starters granade there is geographically much smaller the venezuela obviously making it easier to access and control back in 1803 its population stood it just 96000 while venezuela currently has a population of 32000000 the u.s. deployed just 6000 troops to overthrow the government in country back then a military intervention in venezuela now on the other hand would require an estimated 150000 troops those $25.00 times the deployment in grenada or the down coverlets as that intervention would prove a total disaster. the idea that the u.s. is going to be able in. the venezuelan government grenada style is just silliness of course the u.s. could try a military option from the u.s. point of view it would be a disaster it would be a very protracted military struggle europe where in the end not support it i think most south american countries do not support it even apparently the military brazil

i think the u.s. for its standard and i think diplomatically it would be a disaster for the u.s. and it could be a disaster in many other way again if they got the u.s. got something to do another vietnam war it would cause the deaths of course u.s. personnel would cost trillions of dollars and treasury in many cause rebellion will be united states. the government as we saw during the vietnam war so it's a very very risky proposition for the us to do. that of a club we are always under pressure to resign after he was linked to the alleged cover up of civilian killings more than a decade ago documents leaked to the associated press news agency from going investigation of costly shadow of the activities of the u.s. backed military that the documents show that the military leader made several questionable payments to supposed informants that led to combat operations against

suspected rebels the generals who have denied his involvement in any extra judicial killings kellam open takes up the story. colombia's top ranking general is facing some new damning revelations this is the latest blow to the reputation of the country's u.s. back to military and its crackdown on leftist guerrillas decades ago human rights watch has long been raising and highlighting atrocities. according to the prosecutor files general nicasio martinez aspinall would pay to a source for the location of rebels and then the soldiers would move in for the kill every one point the general was trying to claim he had no idea that these

payments were being issued however the new documents ripped that claim to shreds the general reportedly ordered his troops to double the body count and to accept that higher civilian casualties was just a natural consequence the new york times reporter who was working on this story was recently forced to flee the country human rights and press freedom groups are worried law makers have the right to question any piece of reporting but dangerous irresponsible comments like those medias nicholas casey have the potential to in dangerous. security and discourage reporting on system issues in colombia you would think that with human rights violations an american journalist being threatened the u.s. 6 colombia relations might actually suffer well if you thought that you would be wrong apparently there was just a meeting between the vice president of colombia and the u.s. secretary of defense that was described as friendly it will with thanks to the united states support for many years we have been working. with your institutions

the usa continues to shower weapons on colombia seeing it as a useful ally against venezuela bolivia and other opponents trump just spoke highly of the u.s. colombia partnership i just want to thank the president for working with us and we're working together our militaries are very focused on working together and they think or less your own people in colombia deeply concerned about the situation and they want to see justice served and for the truth to be uncovered it's also vital for the government and its international status was not know whether the general will lose this post this is the task of the justice system which needs to resolve the case imagine that some high ranking venezuelan commander was accused of killing civilians and then covering it up the white house would be up in arms but when it comes to a friend like colombia mass killings aren't such a big deal and r.t. new york. there germany's ruling party faces

a major but after statements on imposing stricter measures on a political discourse on the internet. this we lost among young voters for 2 reasons we failed to adequately address issues that are important to them and we feel due to the handling of the reserves while we have been examining the last people to decide it just 2 days before the election to make a joint appeals or see the you or as b.d. women. clear the keys of political violence in the run up to an election so will those she applies for digital content these are good questions we will need to discuss not just for just slightly you but for media policy as a whole and the future of democracy. her statement coming then after a number of you 2 bloggers in germany called not to vote for the ruling coalition parties in the elections she believes the campaign was to blame them for the see the heavy losses on sunday. so how does this clear factual evidence that the

current system is destructive and it is my democratic. police going to vote for the s.p.d. please don't vote for the c d and please don't vote for the. we ask you will not to support this. and don't support the s.p.t. kind under the bill and those who are any party who doesn't operate on logic or science or it isn't course to destroy the account well the city leaders statements cause some outrage among other parties too for a start the left called it an assault on the freedom of expression and repression of the german constitution then the freedom party said political movements need to have a dialogue with social media platforms martindale's of party indeed thinks maintaining relations with the youth is crucial. all young people are searching for how can we double up a society they way they want to participate in the decision process in the society to the movement of writers for future it out as well on the internet like raise or

end up us is a part of a search for participation in society and for a person active for the future and the less the political mainstream. able to create discourse with witchery the trick the emotion the people emotionally and by the underlying political conscious of them all start to organize themselves and the more. so as for different frames where they can press. the un is raising the alarm of a child money trishna war ravaged afghanistan they say they don't have enough funds to help the millions of children in need of urgent date it comes as the u.s. troops mark nearly 20 years in the country. they are 2000000 children in the country which suffer from acute malnutrition and

among them 600000 children that's a far from severe acute malnutrition a child that suffer from c government isn't it a child that needs urgent treatment otherwise he might die. we are the sole provider of treatment for from the nutrition if we don't have money to buy this treatment the severely adamant mantra wished we do not get it. unfortunately ghana stand as it can treat severe malnutrition is a high level the main reasons are the grecian poverty don't work polluted drinking water substandard food and an educated mothers.

the taliban what they considered a terrorist organization claims that peace in afghanistan is not possible as long as foreign troops remain there the group attended indeed a conference held here in moscow marking a 100 years of russia's afghan diplomatic relations along with the country's official. potent force is the art of leading the dividend housed is marriage parties and burials there are many is that all the things killing hundreds of the people every day is displayed is not possible understand so a date is possible wind fighting forces leave a bannister a son a supposed all afghans one for unfortunately no no afghan wants all started to be tough the presence of foreign forces the something that we all agree on this is us international thinks about should have a chain around the world coming up britain the us is said to get their rubbish back

as malays he refuses to serve as a dumping ground to tell you more after the break. when lawmakers manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. in the frame of. the one percent. we can all middle of the room see. the e.u. would lead sort of suffered another humiliating black eye and bloody nose all

across europe voters put the elites on notice the status quo is not working for the people the search to the right in the rise of populism may be a game changer. list it's. a good morning revelations in a documentary that expose child sex abuse in poland's roman catholic church spots a wave of outrage in the country the film called tell no one showed how priests of never face any consequences for their crimes. his. social muscle.

finally the paedophiles in black folks will face justice make more movies like this one which discloses the deception of the church the respect everyone who decided to be a part of this film artists tell about their horrible experience without the camera the catholic church doesn't lead people to god it just makes them run away from him . the movie was fired through a crowdfunding campaign and is currently being viewed more than $20000000.00 times on you tube the public's now revising the legacy of some priests that they were once considered as heroes polish activists earlier tried to take their own measures against the alleged cover up by church authorities. the governing polish born justice party has been widely supported by the country's religiously conservative population and positioned itself as

a defender of christian values its leader initiated a parliamentary vote on longer prison terms for child abusers after the documentary attracted so much attention however he also accused those who raise the issue of abuse by priests undermining offending the church. everyone has the right to express their opinion but i think it is need to be more careful with their what it's not just a matter of individual offenders the crimes were covered up these things were known to be the church authorities because the absence of the way they moved offenders from parish to the parish is horrendous real punishment merely losing a position in a church is not justice must be so. it's a problem it's hard to say maybe kaczynski want to say it was an attack on christian values. he is partly right it's like living in an apartment and close in a race to the neighbor's pathological family and when a tragedy happens everyone wakes up but if you react early you can prevent a tragedy you have to fight against those who degenerates you the film shows the

truth and how people reacted to truth is their private matter but i do not consider this movie an attack on the church. to the bush you know the church needs to be kept separate from politics that will solve the problem for. us or other world smalling relays is mounting a fight against illegal imports of contaminated non-recyclable plastics the environment ministry vote on tuesday to ship $3000.00 tons of waste back to their countries of origin including the us britain france and japan and she showed reporters the scale of the problem while malaysia has been a wash with waste since china stopped importing millions of tonnes of plastics from the developed world last year much of it's been finding its way to other southeast asian countries in relation environment minister insisted the practice has to stop . whoever that sell there are ways to malaysia where they ways where those plastic ways or whatever ways we will send it back and we will

fight back even though we are a small country we cannot be bullied by a developed country is malays here isn't the only southeast asian country pushing back against the influx of garbage after a 6 year dispute recently canada agreed just last week to accept the return of a huge shipment that was dumped in the philippines over 100 shipping containers of mislabeled household waste have been sent to ports in the philippines back in 2013 and left to fester there the political fallout became so severe that president deter to threaten literally to dump the rubbish in canadian waters. will declare war against canada we can take them down i'll return the trash just wait and see i will advice canada that your government is on the way grant reception even if you want to. if you're a mental campaigner george barda describes the offloading of waste as free trade dirty secret. so the wind of phenomena and this is part of his work is what's known by some as waste colonialism and the really dirty secret of so-called free trade

is that it's free for corporations to do what the hell they like but there is very little freedom for. poor countries that are often the subject of this you know these toxic arrivals to do anything about it after china announced a ban on imports of plastics at the end of 2017 that neighboring countries in asia the philippines. have now become the dumping grounds for that country for that waste and the depressing thing is there seems to be no evidence whatsoever that countries like the u.k. are doing any kind of follow up to make sure that that waste is being treated in a in a remote responsible way as virtually no there's no inspection of that regulations it was part of the job so it was like sudanese who suffer from us the smaller but so much more of course on our side if you get a minute's check you don't come here more skilled kevin 0 in the rest the morning team on duty here right now would be said thanks for watching this wednesday of you

around the world have a great day. person petersburg international economic forum is a unique event in today's business world. over the last 21 years the forum has become a leading global platform for discussing the key economic issues facing russia emerging markets and the world thousands of business community members attend the forum to address today's vital issues. watch our special forum coverage on r.t. . nobody could see coming that false confessions would be that prevalent in this population of people look at birch. head any interrogation out there what you'll see is threat promise threat promise threat lie a lie a lie the process of interrogation is designed to put people in just that frame of

mind make the most comfortable make them want to get out and don't take no for an answer don't accept their denials she said therefore would. say i stayed there i would be home by that time the next day there's a culture on accountability and police officers know that they can engage in misconduct that has nothing to do with all the crime. so what is it calling his magic internet the new type of digital currency essential lies digital scarcity chancellor. of 2nd for bankers call the genesis blog for reason to calling it civil disobedience a source of optimism because i can control my own financial destiny it's just a new way of coming to consensus it's a game changer in the human history and this is columbus discovering the new world

this paradigm shifting technology that transforms economics and finance in a heartbeat the apollo 11 landing on to the max and stacey. and we don't know what facebook's aims are in fact facebook doesn't know what its aims are because it's going to be the sum total of all the people who are working on these algorithms a whistleblower someone who used to work for facebook came forward last year and said i was one of the news sure eaters at facebook a bunch of us used to sit around every day and we used to remove stories from the news feed that were. conservative and now and then we inject a story that we thought was really cool. facebook founder mark zuckerberg says he's committed to giving everyone a voice responding to an allegation that facebook edits conservative views out of

its trending topics they can suppress certain types of results based on what they think you should be seeing based on what your followers are presenting now a new report claims that according to a former facebook employee the social media mega company sometimes ignores what is actually trending among its 1000000000 users if this story originated from a conservative news source or if it's a topic causing buzz among conservatives. facebook costly manipulates or users they do it by the things that they insert into the news feeds they do it by the types of posts they allow their users to see and the fact that they actually decided to do psychological experiments on the users is something that i think a lot of people need to really fully understand and they were doing it based upon the fact that different things that people posted they want to see how other people would react to a. health watch why your facebook friends post can have a direct effect on your mood new research shows the more negative post you see the

more negative you could become. so if for example let's say somebody wanted to post something that was on the news feed that was a very negative story they wanted to see how their users would react via their likes by their statements for their posts and they would show people who already had a predilection to maybe having some depression or maybe having some other issues in their lives and they can figure that out based upon your like space upon your connections based upon where you're going and so what they want to do is take that information and then use it to basically weaponize this information against their users so that way their users could see different things that may affect their mood . and they affect how they interact with others and that's something that is highly unethical it appears that some young people may have been so affected by this that they may have done harm to themselves based upon what they saw on their facebook feed and it was all because experiments the things that we have no standing with

facebook we're not citizens of facebook we have no facebook it's not a democracy and this this process is not a way we can design the future we can't rely on this single company to invent our digital future. there's there's what i call the creepy line and the google policy about a lot of these things is to get right up for the creepy line but not cross it google crosses the creepy line every day not only does google cross the creepy line the location of that line you keep shifting well it's an interesting word creepy right because it's a it's a word that connotes horror he didn't say dangerous he didn't say an ethical there's all sorts of words that could have fit in not slot he said creepy and a creep is someone who creeps around and follows you and spies on you for unsavory purposes right that's the definition of

a creep you know i don't think the typical ethical person says i'm going to push right up to the line of creepy and stop their you know they say more something like how about we don't get near enough to the creepy line so that we're ever. in gauging in even pseudo creepy behavior because creepy is really bad you know it's. a creepy mugger is worse than a mugger the mugger wants your money god only knows what the creepy mugger wants it's more than your money and you give google a lot of information you searching for the most private stuff on google you're searching about you know illnesses and diseases that your family have you're searching about things that might be your why. mayor spouse mind i want you to know about your give me a telling google more than you would tell a family member or your spouse or a very close friend and google has so much information about you that it's scary for who are starting 3 very.
