donald trump's dreams of a wall come true in the u.k. city of portsmouth which is beefing up security ahead of his world war 2 d.-day anniversary visit much to the annoyance of some locals. this is going to try to tell me that it's good to be on the screen it's old friends still you can't see anything not going to the summit much back to. multiple explosions ripped through a t.n.t. factory in the russian city of their jeans leaving at least 42 people injured. and a new computer game based on the war in syria twice the fast. rescue group the white comets as heroes and russian planes as targeting civilians.

here watching our 2 international bring you a live news update from our studio here in moscow welcome to the program. the u.k. is bracing itself for protests over donald trump's upcoming state visit rallies are expected to follow the u.s. president throughout his 3 day trip his last visit in 201-825-0000 demonstrate in london and protesters are once again expected to poke fun at him. that giant trump robot seated on a toilet has been shipped from china to london specifically for his latest visit this year a.b.b. trumbull luna was flown high in the skies over the british capital the people behind it hope to repeat the stunt with a new balloon and have the approval from the mayor of london but they say they still need to reach their 30000 fundraising target. meanwhile charmes plans for

a wall seem to have inspired his soon to be hosts in the u.k. with the american president visiting the city of portsmouth for d.-day commemorations local authorities have arrested a large security fence to the disgruntlement of some locals the annual event marks the start of the normandy landings turned world war 2 boycott reports from the city . he wanted to a wall and now he's got it ok so it may not be the wall but it is a wall the naval city of portsmouth is getting ready to welcome the u.s. president who's going to be visiting here in order to attend the 75th anniversary of the d.-day landings on the 5th of june that's why the barricades have gone up and the is ready and all of this green space where the ceremony will take place is called and off lest anyone get any dangerous ideas donald

trump's attendance all of the deejays ceremony will see him conclude in a double layer of security fencing allowing him to watch the day's events from inside there in total safety with the queen and to reason may and some invited guests but the u.s. president's security comes at a cost for the people of portsmouth for whom their view of the day's events will be totally blocked well for those with an official invite view for me inside is rather splendid they've even spurious stop all that excessive saying there is without an invitation all welcome to this general area outside although they'll be subject to security checks while coming in but once inside they'll be able to watch the proceedings taking place in their own large t.v.

screens out here for some minutes putting a bit of a dam on d.-day for those who are involved. in the periphery shoot through the book with people coming around the outside to see the event and now it's because the matrix coming from it's going to be on the screen it's on for in-store you can't see anything you want to shoot and draw. but there will helicoptered in durham it just wasn't long before to soko or no it's a different world but still you know you have to show the museum don't yeah yeah i know you know when the storm turned on television because of the studio and i wouldn't have no friends and. you know i just might sort of mockery of it it's not so common that anybody can hear you say no way. no i don't mean that it seems like everybody was shocked talked to we will tell the other end and we could get through so much why don't i do it is the summit much better like they die i

think with the possibility to demonstrate what they've done is basically blocked off any sign of any doesn't demonstrate just so. that shashi will see lower don't need that much security. here is it portsmouth city's council leader is also on impressed it will change the nature of the event a great do for us the center of the events was meant to be the veterans with donald trump coming i think the chances are that it will move from being around commemoration and instead it will be a day of controversy d.-day carries a special significance here portsmouth was the departure point for much of the d.-day landing force in 1944 all that i want to be able to see to this ceremony that will be one special designated area where dissatisfied locals can have very voices heard the now obligatory looting and the trump protests will

have to be erected everywhere the u.s. president goes on his u.k. state visit and portsmouth is no exception. 42 people are confirmed injured after multiple explosions ripped through a factory producing t.n.t. in the russian city of their students. authorities have declared a state of emergency in the area the plant was engulfed in flames with the fire spreading to a nearby building but the blaze has now been extinguished authorities say the blast were so powerful they shattered windows 3 kilometers away investigators have opened a criminal probe over the possible violation of safety regulations human error is being blamed for the blast we'll keep you updated with any new developments on the situation. the latest installment of his computer game series call of duty takes inspiration from the conflict in syria but it gives a warped perspective on the war portraying john hustling to rescue group the white

helmets as heroes and showing russian planes deliberately targeting civilians in gaza have takes a look. it's back in a big way after years of falling sales and irrelevance call of duty is going back to its roots it'll be more shocking more morally ambiguous than ever before with russians so we've all you wouldn't believe. surprise russian sue 25 jet there it is apparently bombing civilians in the next scene white helmets the rescue wing of syria's jihad is rebels a scene helping injured civilians out of rubble just like in their real life propaganda reels the syrian 1st responders who've risked their lives to save others

in war torn aleppo in the face of on relenting brutality heroes have emerged they have all chosen to risk their lives to save others. now it's only a trailer but something tells me we would see the ugly side of the white helmets i doubt we'll see them disposing of freshly executed corpses for islam is terrorists i doubt we'll see them waving their flags as they do in real life i doubt we'll see them staging chemical weapons attacks but i don't doubt is that the russians will be portrayed doing things that would put satan himself to shame at least going by what those who have already played the game the same. we saw gameplay from the perspective of a young frog the girl who would eventually grow up to be the commander of the rebel forces fleeing from the invading russian army for her family are eventually

cornered by a soldier who kills her father we see could be him crawling under the bed and scurrying about her house to take down and long headed for shin soldier with little more than a screwdriver. to be fair it's only a game artistic license and all that no relation to real life events people or politics it's just a video game for young malleable impressionable kids showing imaginary russians invading bombing civilians murdering civilians gassing civilians and being killed in turn by the protagonist and the white helmets virtually copy pasted from c.n.n. into call of duty coincidence totally what we see is what defines a terrorist is in the eye of the beholder this is not a black and white world oh so i says bombing an airport in europe doesn't necessarily mean it's terrorism as like real life dude we all decide

what's good and what's bad like in previous call of duty games where the player gets to massacre hundreds of russian civilians in an airport. and again by total coincidence call of duty and the pentagon have almost identical perceptions of who is good and who is bad what i meant by coincidence is the opposite of coincidence not only a pentagon employees board in to help design the game but cool of juji writers then go on to advise that the pentagon started thinking about how to change we brought in a lot of outside help military advisors futurologists we got together with the scenario planning from the department of defense who is active in the pentagon which of

course means nothing it's only a game for kids i just wonder when will we get a modern warfare in starman where the protagonist is patriotic middle eastern and fighting to rid his country of an occupying american army what do you think those pentagon advisors would have to say to that. we spoke to joe lombardo koch or nader at the united and national anti-war coalition he claims the u.s. military uses video games as a propaganda tool but i think it's just part of the down propaganda that comes out in various forms to get people used to war and to get people to take sides especially young people propaganda comes in many forms and throughout my lifetime i have seen movies and hollywood change

and i think this is preparing people for the kind of world that the u.s. military and the u.s. government want to see so they can continue their dominance military dominance and political dominance over the world the u.s. military should stay away of the gaming industry they should stay out of hollywood they should stay out of the sports industry but they ready are in all those industries. maybe the 1st day of summer it's the 29th weekend avail of us protests across france and nationwide anti-government rallies have been losing steam of late with numbers dwindling fast down there hawkins reports from paris. so far it has to be said this protest has been fairly tame by french than it's by the measures we've seen over the last few months no rising or trashing of shops by protest there's no button charges or gas canisters fired by the police it's fair to say nobles numbers have dwindled as well and it's quite this movement attracted nearly 300000 people across paris and other cities in france numbers

today are in the dozens or hundreds but that makes these people no less vocal we've seen just a couple of people being detained by police searching atmosphere of tension that would seem protesters and security forces here on the ground a lot of hostility towards a lot of it's a bit of order should moment for this movement as well it marks the 29th consecutive weekend 6 months since the protests began and that time they've become the most vociferous loudest violent protests since the sixty's in france and of course the political migraines of president mark from forcing him to reverse many of those economic measures he was taken forcing him to backpedal and the people here will feel that they've achieved many things that you 900 people in the political on a range of the political spectrum from the left progressives and others as well david sheaves some of their aims today you know just a short while ago the french prosecutor announced that police officers would be

facing charges for some of the injuries that were just the sustained over the last few months many of them debilitating or you series face injuries caused by the firing of rubber bullets to date no police officer has gone to court over this charges now it seems they will be held accountable and certainly protesters here feel there's another small victory for them it's easy to underestimate given the significant smaller numbers we're seeing here today the sheer room packed the universe movement has had all of french political discourse national debates being held. it was also interesting to see if this grassroots protest movement could manifest itself. this is the 1st weekend since the european elections when the protesters fielded over 30 candidates one what they were holding around 10 percent they managed to achieve a little point 6 bodies breaking the one percent threshold it's a watershed moment like i said for these protesters it will be interesting to see where exactly there's really only yellow 1st protest movement goes after this still

to come hollywood actors and movie makers boycott the state of georgia after it severely tightens the rules on abortions that story and more after the break. join me every thursday on the alex simon chill and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports i'm showbusiness i'll see you that. capitalism is just great companies they compete they make products fail some of them the there's a central bank there in case the banks go under as the lender of last resort and that's the way it was designed to play but now we're in a situation where the central banks become the 1st one.

standardized testing. it's a very well done. and you know to say we should have standardized testing to be like saying well we shouldn't have our blood pressure checked or even though you're going to see the doctor those are standardized instruments you need to be able to know what children are doing right from when they start school. welcome back china's tit for tat tariffs on u.s. made goods have come into effect the import tax on over $5000.00 items is now 25 percent beijing is responding to hike in u.s. tariffs on 200000000000 dollars worth of chinese goods also earlier in may double trump banned chinese tech giant huawei pressuring allies to do the same reports now

suggest beijing is planning to mirror that move as well compiling a blacklist of u.s. corporations meanwhile acting u.s. defense secretary patrick shanahan took a swipe at china while speaking at the asia pacific summit in singapore. some in our region are choosing to act contrary to the principles and norms that have benefited the us all they destabilized the region deploying advanced weapons systems to militarized disputed areas. destabilizing the peaceful status quo by threatening the use of force to compel rivals into conceding claims. you know we're not going to ignore chinese behavior. and i think in the past people have kind of tiptoed around that china expert and her long told us that the fight for dominance between china and the us will fight not only the 2 countries manufacturers and consumers but many around the world. still one of the.

forums in singapore is being used as a forum to attack china. on a. not just a trade. but a fight between a dollar seeing at $360.00 degrees kind of back construct the us consumers as well as us waters and even u.s. manufacturers would be affected because a lot of its components change china and china buys a lot of the united states and then of course the soybeans almost trumps maine so pleased so i think there's going to hurt us. china as well so this is again. together with other countries because the all well is connected in this venue change. the united nations children's charity unicef says almost half of all afghan children are being denied an education the war on terror in the region has

led to many schools being destroyed are to visited an afghan province where classes continue against the odds. that our school was destroyed we don't have any chance to see it on and sheltered to take from the sunshine any essentials for our education. and when isis came here they destroyed their school and opened their own sensors and i want the government to reopen this call for us because the weather is very warm we aren't able to learn in such conditions. you know. that could have been there at least 7 educational centers which have been destroyed during the war between the isis militant group and the afghan government the clashes damaged or even destroyed places of education and somebody. occasional sam does became isis headquarters i am

demanding that the government helps us reopen our educational centers as soon as possible. would it tell you that the little populace at the school was taken over by isis isis threat and this in close down our educational centers. is. a little of the response came and shot our educational institutions the teachers were imprisoned and tortured they ordered us to close schools that were too educational buildings destroyed we have asked for the sensors to be repaired but the government hasn't scheduled it yet. film stars and big movie companies are threatening to boycott the u.s. state of georgia or choppers attractive tax breaks for the industry over a new law prohibiting abortion after 6 weeks of pregnancy however while the likes

of disney netflix and warner adopt a firm moral stance in the us they seem less principled in operating abroad and explains. as the state of georgia imposes restraint sions on abortion a number of multinational corporations have decided to take a stand and no longer do business with the state among them disney netflix and warner media either give it becomes law it will be very difficult to produce or rather doubt we will we have many women working on productions in georgia whose rights along with millions of others will be severely restricted by this law should it ever come into effect would rethink our entire investments in ga if the new law holds we will reconsider ga as the home to any new productions but how consistent are these corporations for example netflix recently blocked an episode in saudi arabia as a favor to the monarchy crown prince bahamas and some on a k n b s was hailed as the reformer of the arab world needed but the revelations

about the show his killing have shattered that image was strongly supported to 6 friedan world wasn't only remove the sub desoto in saudi arabia after we had received a valid legal request but saudi arabia is not exactly a haven for women's rights and progressive thinking on its face is pretty ironic because those are pretty egregious human rights issues it's more about a political game those plea as being plea rather than any kind of actual feelings towards the issue and then there's warner media they have a very longstanding relationship with the kingdom of saudi arabia in fact prince our lead been to wall was a 5 percent shareholder in time warner at one point i was at disney they've been known to put on performances of their best known acts in box rain the last one just over a year ago. course

they never really considered the laws of these u.s. aligned autocratic kingdoms for example there's one law that legalizes rape just so long. as marriage follows the crime well you talking about greater issues abortion and guns rights things like they stay away from me but again it goes back to the hopi are part of you you would it be culturally to heighten your brand recognition out there in the world and also to position yourself better in a particular place where you doing business be a way do this day gain the middle east you know a lot of money comes from saudi cutter u.a.e. and that going to go over there is a particular things because they know a net part of the world this would not be tolerated is what we're talking about the bigger company disney is self you still have to beat boss bob iger and some of the high level executives who want to preserve their own image for any kind of potential political running to future and also for the overall image of their

greater company disney yes these american mainstream media and entertainment conglomerates love to virtue signal and act like they're sticking it to george and to the republicans however just like their wheeling and dealing with middle eastern petro autocracies it seems like their recent outrage over abortion has more to do with marketing than with principles able to mop and party new york. that's a global news update for this hour but don't forget you can always have to our website are to dot com for the details on all the stories and many more.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy people in front a shouldn't let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. nobody could see coming that false confessions would be that in the spot place the phone flicker. looks at any interrogation out there what you'll see is threat promise threat promise threat why 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. this footage is unique because the zoe tribal lands i'm normally off limits to the public eric's allowed in because he's been so is personal. the people here know him simply as don't to eric he's rich famous some always on the move saving some flying aircraft that it's. not all. he's considered one of the best neurosurgeons in

brazil. as well that's happening amazon. allergists. just going to busy doing nothing is going to do the population not because it's going to people from mama's own. you. guys are this is the kaiser report news out of japan. yes of course our president donald trump was over there recently but i want to look at this headline about what the bank of japan is doing and this is a tweet from daniel a colony says the bank of japan now owns 73 percent of all of the country's e.t.f.

market if you think buying bonds stocks and e.t.f. supports growth and jobs you may also believe that dancing in circles attracts rain so you know this the black section there is the bank of japan and the red section is the rest of the market participants are crazy no thing about capitalism is just post to create companies they compete they make products some of them fail some of them succeed there's a central bank there in case the banks go under as the lender of last resort and that's the way it was designed simply but now are in a situation where the central banks become the buyer of 1st order their constituency are the people who own these companies and whenever they want to go. options portfolio to take more cash out in not in a capitalist way but in

a neo futile as we've talked about neal feudalism the banks central bank is there to blood so now the bank of tokyo is worth 7374 percent of all the stocks up outstanding in japan that means that last 25 percent of the market is roof reflects some kind of you could under lying economic activity and that's supposed to support the entire country. through their stagflation right and that number a shrinking so japan is being taken private japan is going back to the mill. ages to go back to feudalism and they'll be completely futile state now. presumably with the next few years so break out the samurai swords and the kabuki theater and everything else that goes with medieval japan because that's where they're headed so a few things 1st of all it's the bank of japan now the bank of tokyo the b.o.j. and secondly it's becoming state owned so this the taxpayers owning these companies

this is also we're in a situation of global deflation japan has led the way it's been in deflation for at least a decade or 2 longer than everywhere else that has resulted in them being the 1st mover and terms of crazy economic crazy monetary policies to fix so-called fix the markets and fix the economy you can look forward to the u.s. and european nations getting in on this of course switzerland has already copy of this smaller nations can do this with huge savings pools like switzerland like japan and they're buying stocks now remember during the last global great to deflation which was in the 1930 s. you know 1st mover advantage to go to some countries like the u.k. who pulled themselves off the gold standard and whoever devalued their money whoever devalue their currency against gold. basically got out of their depression earlier than the others at the cost of the others so this is all.
