didn't you know i never signed a contract with you that you can win back to where they were back here thereby again 15 feet apart at this point. his gun. rights groups condemned saudi arabia for seeking to execute a teenage pouring over his involvement in an anti-government rally. costanza german voters to shun a right wing candidate whose favorites we come back we're going to move often used as a location for all the wood but. thousands of videos face the chop from you tube it spots against online extremism one of the issues it's really that straightforward.

and welcome you're watching r.t. international we communicate arian top story this hour human rights groups are urging the saudi government not to execute a teenager for among other alleged crimes taking part in anti-government rallies some of the offenses go back to when he was just 10 years old artie's saskia taylor has the story. this is more courageous he is now 18 years old and on trial in saudi arabia and this is him at the time of his alleged crime on a bike in his hometown and with 30 other children cycling around as part of an anti-government rally he was 10 years old with a job he spent the last 4 years in jail some of them and saw that she confinement the saudi authorities say he's confessed but the teenager denies this claiming he was forced into an admission of guilt off to hours of torture riyadh's decision to sentence him to death is on surprisingly not going down well ridiculous exercise of

brutality of starvation state authoritarianism and other human rights abuse case the prosecutor in quite a racist case is not only calling for the death penalty but for his body to be crucified or dismembered afterwards here's a chain year old kid riding his bike and somehow this is a capital offense now you'd be forgiven if you're experiencing some deja vu remember all the indignation over lost his assassination of this jamal khashoggi the media allege the crown prince was complicit in his murder something the kingdom need to noise politicians called for immediate sanctions against riyadh and human rights groups blasted the kingdom's constant violations of well human rights but do you remember how it and did i call the game i like the king. i should get.

the funding you can and you have a lot of money. yeah you guessed it minute 3 contracts to the tune of billions of dollars not of course for getting the millions of dollars of oil heading to american shores every day everything made perfect sense for trump and in fact it seems the case actually helped him dip into the saudi coffee. yes they buy a lot from us $450000000000.00 they bought you know you had people wanting to cut off saudi arabia they bought $450000000000.00 i don't want to lose them out so why are we now on the one hand trumps administration has just all through a top american defense fund called raytheon to couple with the saudis and build bomb parts and saudi arabia on the other hand the fate of a minor facing the death penalty for challenging the saudi regime to be reigning in 2nd guess what's next there is no pretense anymore of it being moral and of the trump administration there you the us used to maybe it was worse when their prior

administrations where they tried to pretend that what they were doing was the moral thing that's been very clear he brags about the deals he strikes you know selling arms to the saudis we you know just turn a blind eye to the atrocities and that say well you know it's real politik we support the arabia because they're on our side is really very honest that he doesn't care about human lives the lives of the show. or any other person on death row or any other person who's about to be executed by accident legally and by the saudi royal family to experience these as look they buy a lot of weapons from us is made of gold media hype about these new gruesome executions i don't believe that the us government policy makers will change their orientation towards the radio whatsoever this sunday's never cashed out for us that since contractors so you really is

a strategic ally along with israel in the me it is the us control over that resource rich period called the middle east. picture perfect germantown is in the spotlight over the election of an emacs that like a victory of the right wing candidate who was already about one the 1st round of voting has sent shock waves all the way to hollywood with no way if an oceanographer was. welcome to girly wood this is how this little german town of gurlitz at the border with poland is sometimes referred to with hollywood teams frequent guests here not surprisingly look around me having survived the allied bombing raids hain war to its old town has retained a special atmosphere making it a perfect location for historical and war drama as members of the national socialist party card you're among the blockbusters filmed here in florida as bastards and their and so grand budapest hotel the boy in training.

but some no fear that this traditionally left leaning town is about to undergo an inglorious shift and become germany's 1st to vote in mayor from the alternative for germany party the energy candidate sebastian vettel a 36 year old police commissioner picked up 36.4 percent of the vote in the 1st round and he has a serious chance of topping the candidates in the 2nd round runoff later this week now actors and directors both german and foreign are calling the locals here to avoid. the right don't give in to hate and hostility conflict and exclusion please vote wisely don't betray your convictions the moment someone claims to be able to solve problems for you and for their businesses i personally think it's a good thing that the c.d.u. was finally voted out it never was and never will be good while they are in power.

i don't really know but i think the previous government made too many mistakes. and no i don't think it's right i think the people of gurlitz a smart enough to decide for themselves i think that imposing someone else's opinion for example from america is unacceptable. if they don't live here then they should a medal in our local affairs we do not tell others what to do it's to. call for artists because they think differently so they can also voice their opinions we live in a democratic country so everyone is free to express their thoughts but i can say anything specifically about the spot to. decide on its course so far they have not learned. the news and i wouldn't choose the anyway there is fear already nevertheless the elections are democratic this is everyone through them they'll turn to for germany party candidate may be leading the polls right now but with 6 days to the vote the power of the film industry is elite now involved the mayor's

race here in this town has itself become big screen material life an ocean an hour to reporting from the town of gurlitz in eastern germany german foreign minister has described the international crisis over iran as highly explosive and extremely serious taken masses into wrong trying to save the 2050 nuclear deal which is on the verge of collapse germany's top diplomat met with both his iranian counterpart mohammad. refund president hassan rouhani on monday speaking to the press earlier last with europe support for the faltering agreement and promised that a payment system designed to bypass u.s. sanctions on iran will soon be ready meanwhile the iranian foreign minister had a stern warning for washington. the new tensions in the region are the result of the us waging an economic war against iran mr trump himself has announced that the us is launching economic war against iran we have never started a new war and we will not do so however if another country starts

a war with us they will not be the ones to finish it but we want to feel good since we cannot work miracles try to avert a failure. the german foreign minister's visit comes with less than a month until an iranian imposed deadline for compliance with the nuclear deal expires and only may iran suspended some of its commitments under the accord and called on the other signatories to shield it from the impact of u.s. sanctions thereby honoring their commitments to wrong has said that if nothing changes on the 7th of july it will resume high level uranium enrichment the head of the un's atomic watchdog confirmed on monday that iran has already exhiliration its and which meant of the fissile material. well over the past few weeks the u.s. has both its military presence in the persian gulf fueling tensions with iran and some say keeping up the financial pressure on the rainy and leadership a policy that donald trump has repeatedly praised. their failing as

a nation under one of the photos of the regime they can carry that over. but the sanctions are. extraordinary you know how powerful that is. and we had from told his european signatories to the deal think we haven't done enough to preserve it. of course the ukrainians are getting bit standen because they have respected their part of the you apparently until now so they stopped saying if nobody moves we will start again richmond over your radio so this because of course at that moment the americans could feel justified to do something so europe should move quicker europe has to have its. functioning to satisfy the arrangement and have some companies benefiting from it or iran benefiting from a to continue trading with european country its own.

for about a year for europeans to do something and they haven't done much this. agreement between iran and p 5 plus one so that. you have 5 countries remaining so you don was hoping that these other countries would offset the fact that u.s. is out. in practice we haven't seen that you have seen the europeans but they want to. basically following u.s. foreign policy. it's not for any politician in you know who you know benefiting people. that's why they do images for. thousands of videos are said to be taken down from you tube the video sharing giant is adopting new guidelines to ban certain groups from promoting themselves or superior with the moving to the likes of neo nazis our senior correspondent mike

garcia of takes a closer look. you tube has again shuffled about it's hate speech and discrimination policy this follows a sidestep wark to some assaults and a back flip today we're taking another step in a hate speech policy by specifically prohibiting videos alleging that a group is superior in order to justify discrimination segregation or exclusion based on qualities like age gender race cars to religion sexual orientation or veteran status if that was any more vague it might as well have been fog me store a cloud it's really that vague videos alleging a group is superior gosh according to that statement the hammer of politically correct judgement is about to fall or later other animal lovers that see dogs

as superior to men. is written in to saying i'm allergic to dogs but i'd still choose allergies over another man in my life. when i started on i love my don't suppress that couldn't imagine my life without my has was. always very of the me as i see it comparing an entire gender to a dog could be taken as offensive by both sexes and all those in between and sexual but it does raise an interesting point who the hell are you tube facebook or twitter the platforms for people to chat on express themselves or they censors moral police responsible for how and what you say neither apparently all responsibility is yours and if you violate any of the incredibly vague rules you'll get banned no matter how funny you think it is chinese tourists are the worst

tourists there say the traffic we're going to hold. tours about all the travelers like please. they are here are 10 things russia excels at and does better than how we do it in america both consume a lot of vodka but as far as manufacturers the us hasn't really brought anything new to the game including adding flavor to it that was popular among russian aristocracy before the us was even a country russians is better than americans that is like oh my god so racist someone call 911 dot youtube dot com bulletin feminist your next these eat. an objective observer can see that man's life is nothing but a kind of staggering from controlled by his mother to controlled by his wife. women can both think and feel the same time man can. man can either

think or feel it does sound too good to be true if they start enforcing their own policies no matter how vaguely well stop hearing about the best country in the world the freest country in the world the greatest country in the world if they were feliz i'm proud of my mexican ancestry but i also am proud of my american nationality how do i balance these 2 things super simple celebrate cinco de mayo because you are proud of your mexican heritage believe that it is mexico's independence day because you have american ness and. let's be honest you true overlords didn't update their rules to take down america is great videos but given that the rules are now so ambiguous they can be used to take down anything what challenges even remove the political controversial video stand or their i say it

anything and see establishment. and if the u.n. mission in cold. has said local authorities are failing to cooperate with an international probe into recent police raids 2 un employees were detained in a so-called anti smuggling operation in the breakaway province of the hit town and made the complaint to the un security council session can have more people with following the meeting. while at this point we saw the un security council convene to discuss the attacks on u.n. staffers that recently took place this took place in kosovo when the police were raiding serbian populated regions now at this point it's been widely understood that kosovo authorities are not really cooperating with the united nations in their investigation and we've heard from the head of the u.n. mission in kosovo. he's basically saying that the mission immunity was violated this is what he said. that it had been in new. members or is.

the. united property was also properly. served and. really the laws. in news. now the tensions flared up on may 28th at that point the police in kosovo were cracking down on suspected members of organized crime and they were operating mainly in the northern parts of the region to carry out their crackdown now from what we understand 19 people were detained people were injured and one u.n. mission staffer was beaten up and had a broken cheekbone and upper jaw and in addition to that there was another u.n. staffer who was a kosovar serbs and he was injured during the police raid now the 1st u.n. staffer who was a russian national was then taken to belgrade for treatment at that point the

unrecognised kosovo government declared this individual had hindered a special police operation and at this point he was declared persona non grata and at this point we have kosovo politicians who are calling for the u.n. mission to leave kosovo saying it has no purpose this is what one voice in kosovo has said while we are deeply grateful to unmake for the vital role that it has played in the furnace of our liberation we simply do not see any teasin for its continued presence in our thriving republic and make is not the peacekeeping mission because kosovo law enforcement mechanisms and key for guarantee the safety and security of our people. we carefully listen to richard tack you statement there's nothing to thank her for other than eloquent examples of lies insinuations and hateful racist historical friends to see which are unworthy of the security

council meeting now all the members or all the majority of the members of the security council called for hostilities to see sand as the meeting concluded it was pretty clear that the international community has its eye on the situation there as tensions are rising in the aftermath of the may 28th incident. u.s. supreme court has refused to hear the appeal of a prisoner at guantanamo bay now at the hour we have spent the last 17 years in detention without charge and according to associate justice stephen breyer the prisoner might never be released. we think it is the real prospect that he will spend the rest of his life in detention based on his status as an enemy combatant a generation ago. was captured in pakistan near the afghan border back in 2001 he was accused of fighting for the taliban and al qaeda the yemeni citizen has been at guantanamo since 2002 but has never been charged with any crime and his lawyers

say there are no grounds to no longer any grounds to hold him as an enemy tomba turns as a conflict between the u.s. and the afghan taliban has officially ended there are now 40 prisoners behind being held at guantanamo bay prison most of whom have never been charged back in 2008 the u.s. supreme court ruled that inmates can challenge their detention in the federal courts however most of pills since then have proven unsuccessful we spoke with ramsey kasem a law professor at the city university of new york who represents our way among along with a team of students at the school the immigrant and non-citizen rights clinic he told us there is no evidence that we have ever fought against the u.s. or its allies. mr ali even under the presumptions in us law as an innocent man he has not been charged with any crime let alone convicted the u.s. courts that have looked at his case so far have found that there is no evidence that he ever took arms against the united states or its allies that point is not

even disputed so the fact that the government has still fought tooth and nail to keep him at one time water 17 years in the courts have signed off on that really speaks to the extent to which or reflects the extent to which both the law and the government have become cruel and inhumane in these cases but what is remarkable is that justice briar has written a statement which happens very rarely in these sorts of procedures to indicate just how rageous mr always situation is the reason that he remains a guantanamo today and many others like him are free is that he has to his fortune of being the citizen of yemen and not a citizen of the united kingdom france australia saudi arabia or another cover a government that enjoys strong ties with the united states it's really all politics it's got nothing to do with security or anything that mr all he is even alleged to have done he remains an innocent man he said want on

a more after 17 years there are 40 remaining prisoners in guantanamo today 26 of them are yemenis. an executive from the chinese tech giant huawei has been grilled by a british little make is that the cyber security committee hearing and labor member of parliament made a surprising comparison between fall way and the german if that made the gas death comes. but you see when we consider oratory pool it would be for succumb. your company were his chief orpen who manufactured. and sold it to the german government during the 2nd world war. i think i would argue kinds of different picture. ways in the process of building a 5 g. mobile network in the u.k. despite warnings from the us washington has bounced the company or the claims that its equipment is used by the chinese government for spying and is urged the allies

to follow suit but so far no european countries have done so jack rasmussen professor of political economy says the comparison between huawei and i.t. farben makes no sense. it's kind of an absurd comment because you know i g for a good product was designed to kill people whereas you know why waste product is designed for people to communicate i don't know how you kill people with with with a phone that works you can take somebody by association you say i mean you know you don't say that huawei kills people but by associating them with a company that whose product did do that you know you make it sound like well you're guilty by association this attack. on all of the chinese companies are actually here is really about this big fight between the u.s. and china over who's going to dominate technology in the next decade the trade war is beginning to slide into an economic war as the u.s. goes globally to try to wean its allies away from any kind of economic

relationships with china. 47 years ago this image from the vietnam war grabs the public's attention doctors gave the girl in the photograph came through and this was a chance of survival against all the odds she did survive but the war claims the lives of millions. you. knew. before. on the 47th anniversary of the photo r.t. sophie shevardnadze i spoke with config she described the horrific aftermath of the u.s. napalm bombing after lunch so we just play around
