to form a coalition government or face. around the clock across the world this is your r.t. international from the team and myself you know hello and welcome our top story a push for a negotiated resolution to the crisis is picking up steam representatives of president nicolas maduro and opposition leader are expected to meet for a 2nd round of talks in norway next week though the u.s. still its preferred solution. as we have repeatedly stated we believe the only thing to negotiate with nicolas maduro is the conditions of his departure . well the return to the negotiating table comes the spike the opposition's initial reluctance to participate in any dialogue one why dose self proclamation of power

was supported by a consistent hawkish stance amongst western leaders over the past 4 months leaders that are not going to take us through the power struggle. for me if i'm going to be 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 porthole 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. by mike pence the vice president of the united states the united states supports the courageous decision many more countries followed suit brazil has just issued a note recognizing one we're going to go as venezuela's president one wide or 1.

11 door in europe where you go you know one way of all 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 and rolled its arsenal from threats to sanctions to even seemingly harmless things like aid it try to slip the balance of power in favor over their 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 all options are on 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 white dove camp would have much dural the incumbent leader was willing to go all in conventional to trying to articulate his readiness to talk it out with his new rival program if you go i am committed to international dialogue today tomorrow and always i'm committed and personally ready but back then why don't was feeling too good to grace's arch nemesis confronted with the blatant refusal my 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's. 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 are standing behind the people and the constitution but very soon his

voce tool 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 to like to see them into vain militarily but 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 the duro no longer too good for that and the us apparently wants confident

a quick power play would lead to victory now has learned that all or doesn't elect presidents igor issued of there are those some in washington who despite the resumption of the oslo talks appear to believe bellicosity is the best policy. douras not the legitimate leader of venezuela he wouldn't be in power without 6 or $7000.00 cuban security forces in venezuela i would do exactly what reagan did i would give cuba an ultimatum to get out of venice why look at they don't i would let the bit of soil and military know you got to choose between democracy and the dura and if you choose madeira and cuba we're coming after you maybe let's just explain what the senator is speaking about their under president reagan in 1903 the us sent an invasion force into grenada under the pretext of protecting american citizens from the car of being nations marxist leadership in just over a week operation urgent fury had overthrown the cuban aligned government there

senator graham's comparison though seems to be glossing over some crucial differences between venezuela and grenada in the eighty's for starters there's a few the island nation of grenada is geographically much smaller than venezuela making it easier to access and control in 1903 its population is 96000 and as we'll as it's 32000000 back then the u.s. the ploy to run 6000 troops according to some estimates a u.s. military intervention in venice will today would probably require 150000 soldiers or. an invasion by washington would be disastrous. the idea that the u.s. is going to be able to knock off the men and women 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 would 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. would stand alone and i think diplomatically it would be of use aster for the u.s. and it could be a disaster in many other ways again if they got so if the u.s. got something to her another vietnam time warp it would cause deaths of course the u.s. personnel would cost trillions of dollars and treasury in may cause a rebellion with the new united states against the government as we saw during the vietnam war so it's a very very risky proposition for the u.s. to be in this. over in neighboring colombia there's also a scandal on folding the head of its u.s. army is under pressure to resign over an alleged cover up of the killing of thousands of civilians more than

a decade ago we'll go through what we know about it later in the program. the head of germany's ruling party is facing a major backlash over 50000 people have signed a petition against what they say are on the great crumpet current powers plonks for censorship it comes after her statements on imposing stricter measures on political discourse on the internet. it isn't like if this we lost among young voters for 2 reasons we failed to adequately address issues that are important to them and we fail due to the handling of the rise of video where would happen if 70 newspapers decided just 2 days before would you like to make a joint appeal don't vote for the c.d.u. or s.p.d. that would be a clear case of political bias in the run up to an election so why rules should apply for digital content these are 2 questions we will need to discuss not just for the cd you but for media policy as

a whole in the future of democracy so is there a reason perhaps behind those statements right now i will miss carr and barbara statement comes after a number of you true bloggers in germany called on people not to vote for the ruling coalition parties in the elections she believes the campaign was to blame for the cd use pretty heavy losses on sunday. so how does this clear factual evidence that the current system is destructive and it is my democratic duty to ask you please don't vote for the s.p.d. please don't vote for the c.d.u. and please don't vote for the c.s.u. we ask you will not to support the c.d.u. or c.s.u. and don't support the s.p.t. kind of ended up doing to vote for any party that doesn't operate on logic or signs and isn't course to destroy our future to point out it's not just the bloggers the city use leaders statement caused outrage amongst other parties to the left party called it an assault on the freedom of expression and repression of the german constitution the freedom party there said political movements need to have

a dialogue essentially with social media platforms on martin daughter from the left told us maintaining relations with tech savvy youth is crucial. all young people are searching for how can we don't build up a society they want to participate in the decision process in the society to the movement of produce for future on the internet like rousseau and others is a part of the search for or participation in society for a perfect future the less the political mainstream. able to create discourses witchery the trick the emotion the people emotionally and. more conscious of the war start to organize themselves.

so much for different. revelations in a documentary that expose child sex abuse in poland's roman catholic church have sparked a wave of in the country the film was financed through a crowd funding campaign and has been viewed more than 20000000 times on each it. finally the peta followers in black cloaks 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 well the governing polish law and justice party has been widely supported by the

country's religiously conservative population and positions itself as a defender of christian values its leader initiated a vote in parliament on longer prison terms for child abusers after the documentary attracted a lot of attention but he also accused those who raise the issue of abuse by priests of undermining and off ending the faith stating quote there is no poland without the church. everyone has the right to express their opinion but i think politicians need to be more careful with their what it's not just a matter of individual offended the crimes were covered up these things were known to be the church authorities just upset the way they moved the offenders from parish to parish is horrendous there should be real punishment me losing the position in church is not punishment just to smoke. 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 closing the rise to the neighbor's pathological family and when a tragedy happens everyone wakes up but if you react you can prevent a tragedy you have to fight against those who degenerates you the film shows to truth and how people reacted to truth is their private matter but i do not consider this movie an attack on the church. which you know the church needs to be kept separate from politics that will solve the problem. all right let's bring attention in the program back to south america where the head of the colombian army is under pressure to resign after he was linked to the alleged cover up of civilian killings more than a decade ago documents leaked by the are 2 excuse me the associated press news agency from an all knowing investigation of cast really a shadow over the activities of the u.s. military in colombia those papers show that the military leader made several questionable payments to suppose that informants that led to combat operations

against suspected rebels the general tonight his involvement in any extra judicial killings he would market is across the story for us. 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. backed 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. his have the right to question any piece of reporting but dangerous irresponsible comments like those medias nicholas casey have the potential to endanger the security and discourage reporting insisted issues in colombia and you would think that with human rights violations an american journalist being threatened the u.s. 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 a thug to the united states or for many years we have been working to 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 if they don't know or less your own people in colombia deeply concerned about the situation and they want to see justice served for the. to be uncovered it's also vital for the government and its international status we do not know whether the general will lose these posts this is the task of the justice system which needs to resolve the case or 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. r.t. new york just coming up to 18 minutes into the hour a lot of stories to look come on the program including the pressure mounting on

those really prime minister binyamin netanyahu we get to grips with thoughts right off the break. the e.u. would meet suffered another humiliating block guy and bloody nose all across europe voters put the leads on notice the status quo is not working for the people the surge to the right in the rise of populism may be a game changer. now listed. in orwell the state puts in these surveillance cameras in. our present day or well 19 eighty-four dystopian nightmare we put in the cameras we install the cameras on the nest cameras in our doors and our mental pieces and put the spine devices in

our heads and in our homes with another of these mass surveillance technologies that's the difference between orwell and today it is the worst nightmares would never think that we will imprison ourselves. hello again the clock is ticking down on israel's prime minister who has until the end of today to form a government or face another election with more on the challenges facing that binyamin netanyahu here's our tease. he did win the snap elections that he was responsible for calling on april the 9th and this gave him 42 days in which to form

this new coalition and the prognosis really was that he would succeed to do so but unfortunately for him certainly he hasn't the sticking point comes from a former ally a former defense minister who served under netanyahu don't even then who is the leader of a right wing political party and the issue at play is the whole matter of whether or not i'll travel to just jews off a ducks to should serve in the israeli army this is an issue that has resulted in the past and it goes back months if not years in violent clashes between israeli police and religious jews. now the israeli parliament is made up of $120.00 seats to form the next government

netanyahu needs a minimum of $61.00 and without the lieberman party he only has 60 but the problem is that those 60 seats comprise a fair number of religious parties who are against conscription for the sun so this announcement really being pulled between iraq and the base on the one hand trying to satisfy lieberman who wants to see these religious soldiers and the army and his religious clinician partners who don't this is a topic that has often divided israeli says. when we took to the streets we found that there was a very diverse view of opinions but i don't think ordered out through to go to the army because they are not what they believe in and just because we believe in it doesn't mean that's the right thing they said they should do everyone can you know kind of chip in and be integrated into the works and the ridge people should actually we should let some of them actually study study study the bible study the torah although most of the most of them should really should really either get

drafted to the army or do some sort of civil service they should serve as anyone else now this is really a smokescreen for a deeper political struggle that is happening but tween the men and netanyahu and certainly most people here his whole sense that lieberman feels about pushing netanyahu into a corner this is really his big chance of potentially winning and attaining the highest office here in israel but it remains to be seen of course we're learning in the coming hours what develops. malaysia ringback is mounting a fight against illegal imports of can tell many added. plastics the environment minister vote on choose the ship 3 fellows and tons of ways back to their countries of origin of includes the u.s. britain france japan she showed reporters the scale of the problem malaysia has been a watch with way since china stopped importing millions of tonnes of plastics from

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 wastes is being treated in a in a remote responsible way is virtually no there's no inspection of that regulations . but it is part to the rafters going underground it's a head in moments john afshan from london next. to this in petersburg international economic forum is a unique to 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
