team trump comes under fire for us democrats for links to billionaire jeffrey epstein is accused of multiple cases of child sexual abuse despite his close ties to both camps of washington's political elite. was a mistake terrorist involved in the 2015 paris terror attacks gets 500 euros compensation for legal terms of the tension his prison cell it seems was on the permanent surveillance so you've got your thoughts on it it's coming up. on. each of the sentences 24 people involved in a campaign of coordinated terror and assassinations of a street called carried out by us back to take the ships in south america back in the seventy's and eighty's tens of thousands of political opponents were rounded up and killed across 6 countries.

the morning live from washington nationals main news center here in moscow is kevin only for this 30 minute world news updates just turned 11 in the morning he and i was time 1st then the sex trafficking and child abuse trial of billionaire jeffrey epstein is spilling over into the white house president trump has had to defend his labor secretary now. when acosta was a u.s. attorney in miami way back he pleaded rather a plea agreement in an early a case involving epstein which critics say was far too lenient. it's been a great really great the secretary of labor. the rest of it will have to look at we have to look at it very carefully but you talk about a long time ago and again it was a decision made i think not by him but by a lot of people so we're going to look at it very carefully jeffrey epstein a registered sex offender is accused of trafficking and luring dozens of under-age

girls to his mansion if found guilty he could face up to 45 years in prison now the democratic leadership is putting pressure on trump and his team over a potential obstruction of justice. secretary costa must step down as u.s. attorney he engaged in an unconscionable agreement with jeffrey abstain kept secret from courageous young victims prevented them from seeking justice this was now by the president of the us when he appointed him to the cabinet i am calling on secretary acosta to resign instead of prosecuting a predator and serial sex trafficker of children. a cost to trolls to let him off the. jeffrey epstein a billionaire caught trafficking underage girls between 20022005 has been arrested yet again this time after horrendous new evidence came to life beginning at least 2002 and continuing until 2000. and 13 is alleged to have dozens of victims

epstein is well connected and he's evaded these charges for years thanks to a deal he made with the costa when he was the u.s. attorney in miami instead of being charged with sex trafficking and child rape he only pled guilty to a lesser charge of soliciting prostitution from a minor while serving his time epstein had up to 12 hours a day 6 days a week as work release at his downtown office he served only 13 months before then being released on probation during his probation epstein took numerous trips to both the virgin islands and new york city in his private jet and the new evidence has forced acosta to now come forward and defend his decision to give such special treatment to a sexual predator. with the evidence available more than a decade ago federal prosecutors insisted that i go to jail register as a sex offender and put the woden notice that he was

a sexual predator now that you haven't seen additional testimonies available the new prosecution offers an important opportunity to more fully bring him to justice so democrats just heard about this we are dealing are filled with outrage well actually know they've known about it for quite some time this is a cost his confirmation hearing back in 27 seen the lawsuit questions why trump's nominee for labor secretary former miami u.s. attorney you know xander across to cut a non-prosecution deal with epstein a decade ago rather than pursuing a federal indictment in fact the nature of a cost as punishment if you can really call it that was never secret the department of justice. this has defended the actions of the office in that matter under both president bush and president obama's administrations so why the sudden outrage well according to chuck schumer timing is everything the president needs to answer for his statements he has made about his relationship with mr epstein particularly

since president trump appointed mr acosta. to such a powerful position see the issue is that a trumpet ministration official is now caught up in the outrage around jeffrey epstein and trump indeed does have some skeletons in his closet when it comes to the epstein case epstein visited mara largo however according to the attorney who represents one of epstein's victims trump threw him out after he started making passes at underage girls on the property furthermore trump seems to be the only prominent individual actually cooperated with the investigation into epstein's crimes trump is the only person who picked up the phone and said let's just to give you as much time as you want we will need to know it was very helpful so that does not put trump in the clear he certainly was familiar with the sexual predator however so was bill clinton the former president actually took 27 different flights on jeffrey epstein's private airplanes some of them without being accompanied by

secret service and there are rumors circulating that there were underage girls on the plane clinton had his secret service with him and many times he did not almost every time that clinton's name is on the pilot logs there are underage girls there are initials and there are names of many many girls on that. private plane but clinton is just background noise right now epstein fits in with the anti trump chorus from mainstream media the federal sex trafficking case against donald trump old friend jeffrey epstein times to both the president and notably his labor secretary alex our costume the man who cut that deal with him that was his job then now that labor secretary he's got supporters a report of this administration so perhaps the victims in this case should be happy that donald trump was elected after all until trump's name was brought in and attached to the case there seemed to be far less interest an outrage about

epstein's atrocious crimes from certain voices. r t new york. islamic state terrorists. took part in the 2015 paris terror attacks has received 500 euros compensation for legal terms of detention he was in a prison cell under permanent surveillance something that contradicts european human rights laws that. he's got more this morning. so let. him infamous name and the last remaining member of a group behind the worst terror attack in frank. thank. god. just months later 32 people were killed in cold water naked bombings on brussels

major transport hubs is now serving a 20 year prison sentence yet it's in now emerged this self confessed to harvest has found himself on the right side of the legal system of the french state was forced to pay him 500 euros why well do you bring abdel slums incarceration here france he was subjected to stop surveillance back in 2016 then justice minister explained why that decision was taken i made a ministerial order authorizing video surveillance 24 hours a day and on the basis of this decree which i took after consultation with the national commission on informatics and liberty i took an individual decision on mr disallowed to be put into video surveillance even the unions supported the government's position and why that scope of surveillance was justified. in this case video surveillance was an effective means of ensuring that the individual did

not harm himself and if needed to stand trial for what had. it. does lam's who is continuing to challenge it and they won in 2017 these miss it of course agree that his detention conditions were illegal but this information has only just come to light and it's causing outrage. the french judiciary has condemned the state to pay 500 euros to a terrorist who caused the deaths of more than 130 people and left 400 injured on the 13th of november 25th scene this is a disgrace i'm appalled by the court order to pay $500.00 euros to so obviously this legal outrage must be reviewed urgently this friend stay owes nothing to islamist barbarians so what do people here in paris make of this case that more honestly i don't think that 500 euros is a lot and i also agree with human rights side of it but he didn't respect the human

rights of the people either i believe that when you are. creating crime that is so horrific that perhaps you should just lose all of your entailments in a privileges non-pros it was about absolutely not that's not normal he committed a crime and now we have to pay him it's not normal so really amazing that the french government or 2 previous 505-0100 fine birds if we are looking to decide of the justice we've got some rules we've got some lows and we need to respect general. is no good at all because he's still a terrorist and should be the other way he should be charging condemned some very diverse opinions on a subject that many people were simply shocked by it seems though that does lama has no intention of taking the money so far he's refused it charlotte do you can

ski ati paris we also guess about the rights and wrongs of this case it turns out it's not clear cut either. the issue around how we was treated by the french authorities is an important issue regardless of one's background or regardless of one's you know situation in terms of what they've been accused of the rule of law applies equally to same case in belgium actually where they receive compensation because they are in mark a restricted area within prison and they get one euro per day i mean the ridiculous it's not the fact that they're received one euro it's the fact that the court goes as far as losing time on this issue i mean in middle eastern countries there is none of that well the reality is somewhat different the people who carried out those a terrorist attacks in paris and in brussels and some of them have got very serious sentences they've been given life sentences of 20 plus years you know we look here in the u.k. there's been many terror plots that have been foiled and the people involved have

been given long custodial sentences well i think that the sentences should be the real sentences that the judge pronounces if it is 2030 years life it is a life it is 30 years or 20 years people in the street. should not get emotional about this but they don't understand the system they have the impression that the victims are penalized while the justice system defense criminals but you've got to take your own emotion out of it and said that the law applies equally to every single citizen and if the authorities the police are not above the law in western societies and if they've done any particular action which is brought their authority into disrepute then they should be consequences and that's what the judge awarded damages to this individual. one case to another a court in italy has handed the life sentences to 24 people including high profile officials involved in something called operation condor that was a campaign of political repression by us back to the ships in the 1970 s.

and eighty's in 6 south american countries 23 of the 24 were sentenced in absentia the case was initially opened 2 decades ago by families of the victims. kidnappings torture of tens of thousands killed including through being thrown out of flying planes the death flights with a cruel dose of irony the operation was also given the ariel name conduct for over a decade the dictatorships of 6 latin american states were cleansing their left leaning opposition through repression and state terror now their victims have some

closure but only some the executers of operation condor couldn't have excelled at the way they did without help we have followed events in argentina closely we wish the new government will wish it will succeed we will do what we can to help it succeed where were you on a difficult period it is a curious to win political criminal and terrorist activities tend to move without any clear separation when the standard must establish with or ity in hindsight as stablish authority they did oh by all means quite literally all the 6 nations became staunch allies of the us for which the political purges in latin america became a convenient way to scorch communist idea from its backyard outpost of pinochet now a household name almost synonymous with tyranny enjoyed financial support from washington at least through his chief of intelligence some declassified documents

referred to operation condo as a legitimate counterterrorism action moreover and rick kissinger then secretary of state was briefed on the murder operations of. operation condor in august 1976 the operation would last until 1989 and for all those years the cia chose not to step in to prevent the brutal violence in fact the u.s. kept its finger on the pulse of operation condor or aiding at times with strategic planning. brazil argentina chile bolivia paraguayan year ago i make up the nets they keep in touch with one another through a u.s. communication installation in the panama canal zone which covers all of latin america obviously this is the condo network which all of us have heard about over the last few years this cia did such a great job ensuring control of latin america through operation corndog that in

1977 just 2 years into its official phase europe took notes representatives of west german french and british intelligence services had visited the condo organization secretary it's important harry's during the month of september $977.00 in order to discuss methods for establishment of an anti subversion organization simulate a condo due to their view that the terrorists aversive threats had reached such dangerous levels in europe as kissinger was well aware the cia knew all about this state department knew all about this and in fact the united states helped facilitate communications between the 6 countries that were involved in this people are getting some small measure of justice and it's much too late many of the perpetrators have already died you have to realize this was a vast operation thousands and thousands of people involved 7 governments involved at least you have to also remember that you have the intelligence services of

britain france and west germany also collaborating with these governments in south america so this was that michael o'boyle operation to silence critics silence reformers and this is her rent this period in history in terms of actual justice being met it out here on earth that's probably not going to happen in most cases. but the president level 70 moscow time good morning it without international among the stories ahead of the great white american diet. going to head to canada by the bus load maybe for affordable medication we'll explain why they have to do it what their predicament is but we can but. when you hear the word diversity it's at the expense of unity when there is

inclusion but only inclusion when you agree with a certain political and world view and porous we can forget about identity politics if you disagree then you're called a dog whistle wanted to get here. after conference for that's part of it it's a for a while the country has some of calda you've got. stock markets that are owned by let's call 10 percent of the population most of us. and they're what else is for and it's a condition that poor americans don't want to cop to it's hard for but the fact is now you've got 150000000 more people america.

again before diabetes america's say they've been forced to travel to canada in order to get affordable insulated a group spend 15 hours on a bus to buy their medication that's more than 10 times less expensive than over the border in the u.s. you can see the trip they took there we spoke with the organizer. so this is when i just went to c.v.s. in minneapolis minnesota and the retail price of that bile is $340.00 when i went to london ontario to pick it out at the wal-mart pharmacy there. in us dollars the retail price was $26.00 so there is a huge price discrepancy and so for so many americans they just simply can't afford

it i have never had to personally ration insulin but from the high cost of insulin i have had to go into debt because of it i've had to put it on credit cards i've had to reach out to family members to help me pay for it because it has gotten too expensive that i can't cover. because of astronomical cause but i also realize there are people that are not of sports and as me and they don't have family members they can reach out to that can help bail them out doing see the position and co yes of these people according to the us to be does association 30000000 americans suffer from the illness while more than 7000000 rely on insulated it remains the main treatment of course to this day for diabetics to control glucose levels a bit of history here it was 1st produced in 1921 in toronto then the paper was sold for just a dollar with the hope of making treatment available to anyone who needed it how that's changed no it costs more than $300.00 per one capsule in the us and so it

shot up prices almost double between 2012 and 16 forcing so to rush in the medication in fun nicole smith hold from the charity to one international tells us next about the tragic consequences of having to limit a dose. the price is raised to over 1200 percent the past 20 years and there's just no reason why it's been increasing to the point where people just they're dying because they can't afford their insulin my family has paid the ultimate price of the pharmaceutical companies price gouging their patients in 2017 my 26 year old son passed away. from diabetic ketoacidosis from rationing because the insulin and he was rationing it because he couldn't afford it the monthly price for his insulin and diabetic supplies was $1300.00 is going to such an extreme that people are resorting to some really drastic measures to be able to get

affordable insulin and people are traveling outside of the united states and going to other countries to purchase it where it's actually affordable john dombrowski from a pain management center thinks that increased competition would drive down the price of insulin in the us. sometimes it happens the united states the f.d.a. requires pharmaceutical industry to have a certain standard of care and standards are great but sometimes small businesses cannot enter that market because it's such a barrier by making a 1000 dollars or $3000.00 a year in a product when i as a company want to get into that maybe we need 6 companies but we need a company and the way that you do that is again make sure there's a less of a barrier to make this product if you use competition then me as a patient i'm empowered to understand how much is this medication cost is this product equally as good why i want maybe you know take a lesser expensive medication than the other. donald trump on

a twitter crusade again this time venting his anger at britain's ambassador to the united states in a series of tweets and called cicada among other things a pompous full the president also lashed out at going from a sentry's m a calling her brakes a deal a disaster british foreign secretary potentially the next prime minister jeremy hunt fired back don't trump friends speak frankly so i will these comments disrespectful and wrong to our prime minister and my country you said the u.k. u.s. alliance was the greatest in history and i agree but i leave need to treat each other with respect and threes amaze always done with you the u.s. president enraged after leaked confidential e-mails from the u.k.'s ambassador exposed what he thought about president trump and administration london immediately launched a probe into the embarrassing incident but that hasn't satisfied the man in the oval office and now hunts rival to be prime minister boris johnson chipped in to also try to smooth the path a good long term relations they think should be ruffled by this current spat. i've

got a good relationship with the white house and i have no embarrassment in saying that the united states is has been will be for the foreseeable future our number one political military friend on top of all the u.s. state department is also trying to calm the waters so the president with london won't affect their special relationship we will of course let the white house speak for the president's tweets we have an incredibly special and strategic relationship with the united kingdom that has gone on for quite a long time and it's bigger than any individual it's bigger than any government it's something that has stood the test of time and will continue to do so and there's more there could be further injury to the british past has fallen victim to a political hit job inside the u.k. foreign office that is what a former white house communications director told r.t. is going underground host action returns a in the interview in full showing here in many of our regions in just

a couple of minutes right after this news bulletin. you know if you if the windows ok you hear clarity clap outside it's a horse it's not a zebra so to me that was a political hit job an ambassador darrick and there's a transition going to happen in the u.k. government and somebody wanted to embarrass him and knock him out of that post now he's leaving i guess or safaris up in january i think it would be ridiculous for them to remove him prior to start being up but it's likely now because of that maybe he won't get a term extension and ironically that would be a shame for the british government because he's done a very very good job he's incredibly well liked despite what the president is saying in those tweets and that's the president he is very well liked in washington though and he ambassador is not this is a foisted upon the united states not someone with thrilled with this is predictable behavior by the president and the same all over but it's embarrassing somebody should get in the foreign office of the u.k.

government somebody should get down to the bottom of what happened and some people need to get fired ok but if you are still the white house good 11 days inside the foreign office i could figure out who's doing it and we send them out. pretty good watch with afshin if you want to say it's not international and american just a minute until be on our team u.k. and if you have stay in touch with so much more of a news there as well i don't see telecom on my site for now this wednesday morning late morning and i'm 26 now it's kevin owen saying thanks for watching this will be use of they can have a great rest of the day. they

put themselves on the line they did accept the reject. so when you want to be president and you. have to write prose which is what the before. people are. interested always in the water.

done after a time say we're going underground as the british government today bans journalists from a normal clooney host a conference on media freedom and a known wiki leaks cable revelation makes president trump 7 ties with britain's ambassador to washington coming out of the show crisis what crisis and is it finally not just the poor who are paying the price for the $28.00 financial services crash joint your banks. because we asked donald trump's former white house director of communications for these car which he really holds the reins in washington among them after the alleged which arms against former labor shadow minister chris williams and the founder of the u.k. zante racist alliance and the inauguration of a campaign for justice for the $993.00 monitors stephen lawrence welk awards were

blairite attempts to destroy. all the civil coming up in today's going on the ground the 1st of the last night's televised debate between neo liberal candidates to be britain's next prime minister by the end of the month what do they really have to say about this 18000 is a really quite extraordinary number accounts the nearly one in 5 bank jobs and while the scale of this restructuring which i'll get to you has actually taken some of us by surprise the area in focus a half an investment banking. so it hasn't come as a surprise to self-styled city analysts according to a c.n.n. the do it your bank is firing $800000.00 people and investment banking is something to get out of well arguably it was a surprise this week decrying london employees of the bank founded in the year of the paris commune were rustbelt american surprise because u.s. taxpayers bailed out deutscher with more than a 3rd of a trillion dollars labour's jeremy corbyn leading in the latest opinion opinion poll is clear about what he thinks of bankers bankers like morgan stanley should

not run our country but they think they do because the party they fund and protects their interests the conservative party is in downing street that's why they want to keep the tories there because they're rigged economy and their tax cuts for the richest work for them corbin seems to think bankers are unpopular unlike someone who tories could anoint his u.k. prime minister by the end of the month i don't think i got a call to give any politician even conservative politician who from the crash of 2008 onwards actually stuck up for the bankers can you think anybody stuck up for the bankers as much as i did johnson is appealing to a tiny proportion of tory electors who could make him pm and he appears to believe they think that removing billions and billions of pounds worth of public money and pouring it into the hands of bankers is a good idea perhaps does is right.
