goodmorning life march international's main studios here in moscow is just 10 10 am the saturdays cover going with this live 30 minute world news update folks take the time to be with us so this is our top story this morning google has been accused of interfering in last year's landmark abortion referendum in ireland by blacklisting certain pro-life search terms on you tube in the run up to the vote delegation that the tech company may have attempted to influence the outcome is and get the country's religious conservatives protests are expected in dublin later on saturday with more. when you type are searched into you expect to see the most relevant results but how do you know that that search result hasn't been manipulated well according to recent revelations you don't in fact it's alleged that google which owns you tube with its you tube search results on the eve of the

irish abortion referendum according to the project veritas investigative website google is alleged to have manipulated its algorithms and employed so-called blacklists on you tube a leaked document shows terms such as save the 8000 pro-life were among those thought to be bolted to google isn't denying that it tweaks results of politically sensitive content on you tube by pushing what it deems to be the most credible videos above the ones with the most views we've been very public that for a wide range of news and information queries we have algorithms that are designed to surface authoritative content of all political viewpoints this helps prevent spam and conspiracy theories from surfacing prominently on our site in the midst of the irish referendum on abortion our systems abroad authoritative content to the top of our search results for abortion related queries this happened for both

pro-choice and pro-life queries there was no distinction pro-life groups aren't convinced by that statement it's that word or thora to vin google statement that's causing concern catholic groups in particular say they want to know why it's enormous google employees who get to decide what is and isn't or thora to have content google interference in their referendum unarmed i think is that it should send a warning shot across every to everybody who is interested in democracy so what we saw here was a. google blacklisted videos and they deliberately and intentionally manipulation the kind of things that people would find when they push in search terms and here's the very obvious question i think that if this was all aboveboard and if this was not necessary yes then why did they hide it why we only learning about this because

of project very task because somebody in google decided that this was wrong and. that's the only reason we know that these are the pro-life camp only gone it 33 percent when the vote was held in may and abortion was then legalized denial and that issue has now been put to rest but the dispute over the way google cure rate say its search results isn't going away. this is horrific what google has been doing and they really need to be held accountable i mean it's at the point now where they are now interfering with elections in other countries to hear that something like this is happening in ireland in a foreign country where a company in southern california the united states is dictating what gets what search results are seeing ireland to the people of ireland regarding their loss pacifically on things like abortion which is already a very contentious issue in the us throughout the globe is horrific google has absolutely no place to take part in political decisions or social decisions and to

make sure that they all alone can tell which is the scene and which is not. a call to gibraltar has extended the detention of an iranian all to in cuba 2 weeks after it was seized by british marines on thursday the vessel is believed to have been attempting to smuggle in violation of e.u. sanctions to run those said the incident amounts to maritime piracy. has got the latest this week and. if you're brought to court to the extent of the tension of a tanker carrying a rainy an oil for 2 weeks it comes as the british royal marine thieves' the ship off the coast of japan alter on thursday for allegedly trying to take oil to syria in violation of the e.u. sanctions now the crew of the sea ship grace one being interviewed by officials and the ship is likely to remain impounded for several weeks now in retaliation for and demands the immediate release of the vessel and condemns what it sees as an illegal detention tantamount to maritime piracy iranian foreign ministry official described

the u.k. moves on acceptable and called for the immediate release of the oil tanker given that has been seized at the request of the u.s. the u.k. navy's measure is tantamount to maritime piracy britain has no right to impose its own unilateral sanctions all those of the european union in an extra. against the other countries this is the very poorly in policy of the u.s. . britain's foreign office said it would not respond to every single comment about the incident that emerged from iran but it reiterated its position that the action came at the request of gibraltar to halt abbess of believed to be bound to syria which indeed violates sanctions this actually rose from information giving the gibraltar government reasonable grounds to believe that the vessel the grace one was acting in breach of european union sanctions against syria now the e.u. sanctions in place prevent syrian regime from importing oil and gibraltar said it believed that grace one and its barrels of iranian oil were bound for syria however

it's understood that iran has provided these documents to the u.k. proving that the vessel was transiting to a primitive destination although it didn't exactly specify where since then. and spain have become embroiled in a row about the seizure with madrid saying that grace one was intercepted because of a request from the u.s. to the u.k. there's no levels of koreans we have been aware of the operation civil guard patrols have been watching the area but we are investigating the circumstances under which the u.s. had its petition to the u.k. as well as well as spain a senior iranian foreign ministry official said that the united states had asked the u.k. to intercept the ship however just bolters government said in a statement that they acted independently on their own accord the decisions of her majesty's government of gibraltar would taken to do independently waste some breaches of existing law and not at all based on extraneous political

considerations meanwhile the seizure was hailed enthusiastically by a key member of the trumpet ministration excell news yuki has the team this supertanker greece one laden with the reigning oil bond for syria in violation of you sanctions american our allies will continue to prevent regimes into ran in damascus from profiting off this illicit trade so this latest round comes at a time of escalating tensions between the u.s. and iran and of. cause it follows the trumpet ministration previously pulling out of the 2015 nuclear program a plus has reinforced pan issuing sanctions against iran iran now says it's no longer bound by the agreement and will breach impose limits on your aim stockpiles and that although it allies the its european allies including the u.k. have not followed suit in terms of pulling out to her own argues that others think that treats including france and germany and even the u.k. haven't done enough to keep the deal alive meanwhile other countries including russia have weighed in on the diplomatic route with russia's foreign ministry

saying that the seizure is an attempt to aggravate the situation around iran and syria and that the reaction from london and washington shows that the incident had been planned in advance. professor of political science at the university of. the seizure of the group is coordinated. every few weeks we are seeing major provocations by the americans but they're sending drones or warship towards iran and now this incident where the british are actually acting on behalf of the americans what gives the british the right to see any iranian share based on european laws iran is not a member of the e.u. since the trump government decided to leave the nuclear accord the americans have been pressuring iran putting significant pressure on iran and iran has actually been acting in a very relatively cautious manner and we have to understand that you want to not sure we strained forever and we knew such as this where you raining ships are being

what we do or don't do right now in my generation countdown to do is shoot everything east. today. with young people who are watching out. and we promise we will not let you get away with it anymore. according to statistics german people are eager to combat climate change over 70 percent are even said to support the pollution maybe of short haul flights to help a majority would also be willing to pay more for meat products but it's very

different when it comes to fuel because currently the german car industry accounts for 20 percent of the country's interest real output and provides jobs for over 800000 people political commentator eric hammer told r.t. that efforts to target the sector particularly won't prove popular in germany. so in germany the people already the or there's something going on against them and especially if it's regarding their arse germs are concerned. especially because they start so although. most of the people who just follow the party off the ground are. close by and. their. actions on climate change. with the sharia go with the aim of restricting jobs in germany

car industry and restricting people using their car and these 2 nurse where the germans are the 1st one who said well we have. a job and our cars then do a little climate change. this month rwanda has been marking the end of one of the most harrowing chapters in modern history the 1994 genocide over the course of $100.00 days in the summer of 1904 roughly 800000 people were slaughtered by hutu extremists as the international community looked away when the 25 years since the trustee the country's made significant steps forward seeing strong economic growth and development but still faces a number of challenges to. a solemn anniversary for the troubled african nation of rwanda it's 25 years since one of the worst genocides of recent times this history . will not repeat. that is out on egypt

ever had their way to forgive. but would not the one forget also known as the genocide against the ethnic tutsi in 1994 almost a 1000000 people were killed the assassination of the ethnic hutu president triggered the slaughter of some 70 percent of the tutsi population. quarter of a century on the more the deep scars remain something of a surprising trends formation amazingly rwanda's 29th in the world for ease of doing business ahead of spain france japan and china in terms of corruption similar remarkable progress in the top 50 head of italy or malta the country was even ranked 5th safest in the world for walking at night with singapore topping the list no surprise rwanda's called the singapore of africa and also now one of the

cleanest places on earth when the countries is increasing it's a little less nice in a. row under still far from being a paradise it remains of relatively poor country and democracy is not entrenched the e.u. knows serious violations of civil and political rights in fact the west is locked in conflict with the white house slapping steep tariffs on the nation and a major realm with europe's powerhouse germany but it's failed to stop the wonders growth haps to impart to backing from another superpower china beijing's military even accompanied rwandan troops at this week's anniversary celebrations their performance today has gone beyond our expectations reaching the level of we train we are satisfied with their performance with the west apparently blocking its path the small african nation may have found a different road map to success. african affairs analyst lawrence freeman told us

that china's extensive investment in rwanda has been a real driver of its development along the years lately. unfortunately the key to us please now you're really helping out from country by the country or the 100 mark or street when we're certain nothing nothing to actually control infrastructure an economic to go. it's a shameful out by the united states in other european countries it's only been the last kennesaw years then and china that you ship are present even printing and they actually begun to go where were those towel pollutes imports. where the previous 50 years nothing was done by western nations and that to me crews that are not that serious about mark received and that they use democracy as a hammer to beat upon being up and sometimes regime change in african nations.

come up here offer for a cut outs international the us state of kentucky is being terrorized by a variation of black vote just for problems of powerless to fight back cos i'm a big bugs too will tell you why they count 5 but bring in more the weekend stories when we come back. last. i am. i am.

something i like being a rational being richard nothing wrong when. people work hard they make a lot of money and for a lot of people that's very satisfying but when you become a patient monopolist and you are heading up like the pharmaceutical industry one or 2 or 3 major kratz colluding novelist and all of our plus pricing that's not great stats. on the saturday good morning nearly 90000 people have signed an open letter to the french president emanuel mccraw they're calling on him to intervene in the case of vincent a man whose life support systems are being switched off almost 11 years old for

a car crash left him in a vegetative state it comes after france's highest court said last month the doctors could remove the 42 year old feeding tubes number has since a motorbike accident back in 2008 but at the center of the right to die debate while the sneeze here is illegal in france doctors are allowed to put terminally ill patients into a deep state of sedation all that said of course vincent's mother along the way has been fighting to save his son's life. i beg you to intervene to remind france it's an obligation to respond to the precautionary measures prescribed by the comedian and not to kill my son the young my son is the life of oneself and 700 people who share this condition and that are threatened please help us. but vincent lambert's parents are now unable to appeal the decision to switch off his life support with more aware the story stands at the moment this week a maria from. this could be the end of a complicated contradictory and absolutely heartbreaking case which has lost more

than a decade in 2008 a traffic accident left vincent lumbered a french nurse in a vegetative state his brain was unresponsive his body was paralyzed he could only be fed and hydrated artificially after a 5 year battle for his life the battle for his death has started when numerous medical exams stated vinson's semiconscious condition was irreversible the question arose for the 1st time should be vincent continue receiving life support assistance or not it's not a question that is easy or simple to answer and it has divided instance family his wife and 6 of his siblings wanted to let him die peacefully as they put it this is not the life vincent himself would want to leave opposing them were his parents arguing that vincent is simply a person who does not fall under france's and of life legislation and that he

should leave when the 2 sides failed to reach an agreement to dish a marathon started that's resulted in vinson been off and back on life support 5 times after the ruling to stop artificial and tradition was confirmed by 5 different legal bodies including the european court for human rights we do rely on doctors of course and as a see vincent has been in this state for 10 years so his chances of recovery let's be perfectly honest with you a route how much does he understand what quality of life does he have would you wish this sort of life on your worst enemy never mind the loved one winces mother was never ready to give up at one point she even released a video clips of vincent's crying in attempt to show that he does feel and he is aware. but brain specialists say that this is not necessarily the case as far as

saying it's. not realizing what he's living. normally should storm is mostly. they have nothing to do with emotions several more times the mother has tried to persuade the public and legislators that vincent should leave however every time she appealed him being taken off life support the plug was pulled anyway if you know it's a crime that's all i am ashamed of france this monday been since mother made her very last plea she appeared at the un human rights council in geneva emotionally appealing for her son's life skills in rooms i'm sorry for being too emotional i'm crying knowledge of the top of my voice that this is the murder offense and that's the right word why are we not being listened to vincent is a human being he is not an object he's had has been held under water i agree to

come here in the hope that we might be able to defend him but despite all the efforts vincent was taken off of life support yet again the very next day. that's the end of this dispute there is no longer any plea that can be made it can suspend the discontinuation of care there is no longer any legal obstacle to the discontinuation of care and so that's the end of this legal case benson's stories truly heartbreaking and controversial in many ways the battle of 2 sides of one family both wishing the best for their loved one the mother says she was fighting against a system that she believes fails to protect its citizens but some point out there was an important lesson to bill learned from vincents case in an ideal world most of us or all of us should discuss death with our loved one. of course we don't and especially when you're young of course you don't think you ever going to die you

think you're going to live forever but you know the organization to which i belong friends at the end we urge people to make an advanced directive but it seems that regardless whether the man's and it's peaceful or not the fight is far from over he's parents and now preparing to press murder charges more for national party. farmers in the u.s. state of kentucky say that an increasing number of black vultures have been terrorizing their livestock they claim they start to lose as much as half a $1000000.00 in business as the number of predators continues to grow in video it is collected by locals the birds could be seen harassing a herd of cows the birds are said to have been preying on the most vulnerable of the animals. with a vulture it's like someone came in with a skinning knife they're very efficient at what they do it's all clean carts usually their hides completely cut off whereas with

a coyote or dogs it will be torn and jagged farmers say the birds of feeding of newborn cars full grown using lambs vultures can be valuable of course to the ecosystem disposing cleanly of animal carcasses but farmers there are arguing they can't do much to prevent attacks on their livestock as the vultures which are native to kentucky federally protected animals under the migrates free bird treaty the birds can't be harmed without federal mission the punishment is a fine of up to $2000.00 or even 2 years in prison special federal annual permits are required before a person can kill vultures in kentucky joe came from the kentucky farm bureau talked to us about the challenges the farmers are facing right now overall with. the black vultures have been causing problems for livestock producers in kentucky for about the last 10 or 12 years and generally the lalas for years around $300000.00 to $500000.00 for kentucky's producers u.s. fish and wildlife service and u.s.d.a.
