should be. good for mr siward support a. little spear to pull through this interview for you both these to teach the student actually the person who comes to be vocal or should stop and speak to. the british prime minister secures the queen's a pretty vote to suspend paula months until made what's being seen as a risky move to block m.p.'s chances of avoiding a no deal break their. russian journalist killed machines he is released from pretrial detention he spent a year in a ukrainian jail waiting to face the challenges of treason. and in a 1st of its kind the ruling the us federal court ruled is the state of mind a hope to pay for gender reassignment surgery for an inmate convicted of child sex abuse we get reaction to the ruling. i absolutely don't think that taxpayers should

be funding people's preferences there is only one cure for gender dysphoria that is surging. in a very warm welcome you're watching international with me thank you eric. now protesters are gathering in london after a day as huge political upheaval in the u.k. the british prime minister barak's johnson has succeeded in getting the queen's approval to suspend parliament shortly after the summer recess well demonstrates is that have been voicing their anger britain's exit from the european union currently set for the end of october we'll show you live pictures from central london right now on your screen however some people in the capital think the prime minister is just sticking to his guns. probably just try so and so we're trying to

send things down the country. i you know when the facts that breaks it looks like you know the most but when a country wants a solution. states are often usually good i don't think he's probably the best person you know to ship them and even though he knows about it it's just that. he's pushing some people with no one else is to get money as evan all sweet sweet talking peace and so much he's doing the right thing for the country and you know. we've heard this for 3 years and not be judged for the right and she know we won our you know we won those. he's the right man for the job he should have been in years ago to be honest prime minister barak's johnson's move is being seen as an attempt to thwart m.p.'s attempts to avoid a no deal brags that lawmakers will have just 2 weeks parliamentary time before the latest deadline for britain to leave the e.u.

on halloween reporting from westminster his point is leah. well the british prime minister burgess johnson as for me asked the queen to suspend parliament from the 9th of september to the 14th of october the parliament is currently on recess but essentially what it means is that when it we convience there will be little more than 2 weeks for the sitting parliamentarians to discuss this whole issue and be able to prevent in essence a no deal breaks it of course the deadline for the u.k. to leave the european union is on the 31st of october now and johnson has said that his intention in doing this is to allow the u.k. to move forward with its national legislative agenda we're not going to wait until october the 31st before getting on with our plans to take this country forward to a queen's speech and we're going to do it on october 14th and we've got to move it out with a new program there's

a lot of criticism from opposition members of parliament to accuse johnson are behaving cowardly and being in undemocratic and autocratic leader called then the leader of the labor party has said that this is a smash and grab on democracy the speaker of the house is also critical of johnson's move this move represents a constitutional outrage it is blindingly obvious that the purpose of provocation now would be to stop parliament debating briggs's recent telegraph poll found that 88 percent of brits feel that the parliament is out of touch with its people and certainly the parliament on this issue seems to have failed during the leadership of the former prime minister to resign may there were 3 votes on this issue and ultimately may resigned over the whole topic now what we see johnson doing is really delivering on his promises he said he was going to deal with the issue and criticism or not he certainly is moving in that direction i think critics have been

right to note that. it's been really quite full of the government to try to drag the queen into this political mess the government is in i mean the government does not have a majority the government is says. it's election from tory members is not gone part of the public there is not a majority support for what the prime minister wants to do and to get the queen to sum up be complicit in all of this and perhaps give it a little bit of her but just expire call to try to win at least enough time to get his new deal through. a course in kiev has released the head of the ukrainian branch of russia's really news agency from pretrial detention corruption scheme has a dual russian ukrainian national was arrested last year and charged with treason well the case against him still stands and he could face up to 15 years in prison

if he's welcomes the judge's decision in an exclusive interview with our video agency wesley machines he said he's still got plenty to give in his media well. i don't think about making a political career i've been practicing journalism for over 20 years and i believe i can still bring a lot into the profession it's helped me to overcome the events of the last year and therefore i owe it to the job and i should do a lot to benefit including sharing all of the emotions and knowledge i experienced during that year in the now i can't say whether it will be political journalism or not but it's going to be journalism anyway the profession has supported me a lot it saved me a lot so i'll continue supplying it with as much experience as i can who are shinseki was arrested in may 2018 and stands accused of publishing on to ukrainian articles a claim he's always denied his detention had been condemned by a number of international organizations including reporters without borders ukraine

previously attempted to use them in a prisoner swap but he refused saying he wanted to clear his name journalist martin summers believes the coalition's ski's pretrial release could indicate a turning point in russia ukraine relations. wider implications may be that the new broom in kiev with this alinsky government bedding down maybe that they're trying to find ways back from the kind of confrontational attitudes of the recent past of course is always very difficult for journalists reporting on conflicts like this because it's easily easy to be seen by one side or the other. taking sides and that's a very complex situation in the 1st place so i mean a guarded welcome for this and hopefully you know justice will be done but it's it's pretty clearly a political case and we've got a case here in the u.k. of catherine 1000000000 mccaffery in northern ireland who made a film about killings that collusion between the royals to construct

a real loyalist paramilitaries some years ago and they're waiting awaiting trial their absolute prison that they're still awaiting trial for supposedly accessing official secrets and that's that's a concern here the fact that they released him from prison means that and he's welcomed it shows that some movement and of course as you say was potentially involved in a prisoner swap which he rejected because he's not a political prisoner in the sense or a military prisoner he's a journalist trying to do his job. as i'm president of fires tester involves the expenses of pristina amazonian rain forest and with the global outcry increasing brazil has finally agreed to accept foreign aid to help with the crisis but only if we can determine how the phones are spent earlier president taylor behl sonora said he was unwilling to accept any money unless his french counterpart apologize for insulting him the french leader's office said at the beginning of the week that both in our head lied about being committed to preventing climate change and the

spirit comes as the brazilian government faces increased scrutiny over its aggressive attempts to exploit the rain forest service office and also its ties to foreign lobbyists with more on that. the amazon rain forest is on fire on an unprecedented scale and it's everybody's business to see this fire markets group about $200.00 yards 5 minutes alone for the thousands of miles of scorched forests hundreds of burned trees and they broke all records this year they were twice as many as they were in 2080 the war to save the amazon rain forest this is one of the last battlefields celebrities are speaking up saying that the lungs of the earth are at stake the lungs of the earth in flames the am is the needs more than a prove yours so what can you do the amazon rain forest produces more than 20 percent of the world's oxygen and it's been burning for the past 3 weeks it's our responsibility to help to save our planet so who's to blame some say that it is

those who eat meat others say that it is all of humanity or is it present balsa naro after all he's not known as captain chainsaw for nothing is drive to promote deforestation and roll back environmental laws has angered environmentalist's and he's opened the door for american businesses to swoop in a member of both in our us government has made sure that washington lobbyists are in on amazon business opportunities governor wilson lima is very closely tied to all kinds of american business interests for example documents released under the foreign agents registration act reveal that wilson lima is tied to the inner america group a very powerful washington d.c. lobbying they've created a packet for u.s. companies showing the amazon's potential for mining agribusiness and the gas industry back in 28 teen the head of the lobby group even praised trump for electing balsa naro donald trump paved the way for

a bowl so narrow victory under president trump brazil's position as a world leader in industries such as agribusiness mining banking and aviation will be respected prior to the governorship of wilson the louima the previous administration of the. amazonas signed a contract with giuliani safety and security that's giuliani as in rudy giuliani former new york city mayor and a lawyer for donald trump as recently as april the brazilian american chamber of commerce has hosted events touting the vast american business opportunities presented by the forest and soil of the south american nation. forget business there's a pretty clear opportunity here that's for the democrats to promote saving the amazon rain forest and to rub it in the face of the g o p however the democrats

recently canceled a proposed debate around climate change from their list of debates for 2020 presidential candidates so apparently saving the amazon is everybody's business until it's nobody's business so people think that the amazon is creating a lot of the oxygen that we breathe which is exactly true. when trees grow it's kind of like you know what we do in reverse so to take a carbon dioxide and they they kind of. produce oxygen but it's oxygen is then used again by different processes in the forest so for example by decomposition so by the decomposition of dead material or animals but also about the breathing of the animals and by the plants because at night kind of the. plants kind of take up oxygen and breathe out carbon carbon dioxide the president of brazil has been saying quote as a right wing person and obviously his decisions to. to reduce the

environmental agencies work and the money defending to the environmental agency will have had an effect on kind of their environmental policies and i think that's . what was it was already known and these fires now being a little bit you know higher than we've seen previously i think that's linked and connected to how the media and the media and the politicians see the importance of these fires. so i have both in our has been arguing that the attention being paid to the devastation in the amazon is unwarranted as despite the fact that this year and estimated $950000.00 hectares of rain forest have been destroyed much of it for council ranching and soybean cultivation with the explicit support of his that administration and it's not just brazil suffering either fires are now raging in a number of neighboring countries to r.t. spanish has been filming the consequences.

but. there could be a number of causes usually wind scatters quark's from the fire's point of origin prompting the growth of the area on fire even a cigarette thrown out of a window could cause a fire which can spread for kilometers. but

then there the problem is what was it whether we are going into the election campaign for at least one week and even president rather said his running mates will suspend all electrolytes to teach us that we will dictate ourselves to taking care of the entire region the flexible way the wildfires the entire believe in them as a. german police are investigating the murder of an ethnic chechen man in central berlin on friday they've arrested a russian citizen in connection with the killing and the case that jim and media are already comparing to the suspected assassination attempt against script pal in the u.k. . takes a closer look at how the media is playing a little fast with the fact. what we know so far sakte solid facts can fit on this post it note a man was murdered in berlin ethnic chechen with a jihadist past his suspected killer reportedly the russian citizen. see it

fits on the posted note naturally what's known was enough for pundits to flesh out and international conspiracy theory that would put the freemasons in the shade. kremlin assassination putin's hit script fall $2.00 so while the end imaginative did the media get that officials had to step in and curb pundit's imaginations. we don't know the exact motive all we know is there are strong indications that the act was premeditated and that is why we have to go further there has been a lot of speculation already which is also been published for this reason alone we

are obliged to refrain from discussing the investigation all the authorities have said is it could be a politically motivated hit didn't say russia did it didn't say putin ordered it what he said is they don't yet know that's why as an investigation you know to establish facts are fashionable these days in the media nor do they want to talk about the victim no angel himself with a bit of a shady past quarter alongside jihadism chechnya together with men who took entire hospitals hostage bombed subways airports trains committed untold acts of terror supported caliphates and emirates and groups that pledged allegiance to al qaida and no that doesn't justify a murder the perpetrators should be punished feel the full. force of the law but

spinning speculative fairy tales filled with crackpot conspiracy theories in the tar gold rush rush rush or troops. and isn't helping anyone. or us they survive to has been told by a federal court that it must pay for gender reassignment surgery for transgender inmates unless there is a successful appeared in the supreme court the next $90.00 days that will be the 1st time a state has been instructed to pay for such a procedure since the medically necessary treatment for prisoners gender dysphoria is gender confirmation surgery and responsible prison officials deny such treatment with full awareness of the prisoner's suffering those officials violate the 8th amendment prohibition on cruel and unusual punishment this inmate who identifies as a woman but hasn't yet undergone the surgery is called a tree edmond she's serving a 10 year prison sentence for sexually abusing

a 15 year old at mo is show dog for release in 2021 and is not eligible for parole but if the gender reassignment surgery is successfully paid for by the state to ecmo will be transferred to a women's prison where some commentators in the u.s. for their thoughts on the case. i absolutely don't think that taxpayers should be funding people's preferences there is absolutely 0 evidence in the medical community that gender dysphoria is in any way solved or even helped for people you know who are confused about their gender there's nothing that says that that changing their gender will actually help them psychologically physically or in any other way and when you think about the fact that that taxpayer money could be going toward helping other victims like the 15 year old that this perpetrator violated that's where i start to get really angry well she is in prison the

state is responsible for her that person's health and welfare so yes it should be covered just like cancer treatments are covered just as any other treatments or medical conditions are covered in american prison systems the constitution is quite clear that and several cases have proven it in terms of. transgender inmates or to be taken care of failure to do so is a violation of the 8th the memo to the constitution and it's clear that that this is an incredibly sad testimony to the dangers and the damage of politically correct thinking and frankly indoctrination that is happening in media really globally not just in the united states so i really hope that people can get their sense about them and look at the data because as i said there is no medical consensus

whatsoever that this will even be any help to this prison or to this offender even if they go through with a sex change their suicide rates are higher their self harm rates are higher their depression rates are higher their need for medication is higher there are there are a. likelihood of or. committing crimes is higher there is only one cure for gender dysphoria that is surging the bottom line is ok let's get off of this narrative where you're trying to push you're trying to demonize trans folks here because there are non transgender folks who are also abusive to minors as well so let's let's get away from that period because far too often transgender people are demonized not only in discount tree but elsewhere around the planet this is more about it political opinion and any political preference that has become sort

of popular at this moment but it's doing a great deal of destruction to the l.g.b. t.q. community certainly to our prison systems certainly to our courts and certainly to our victims. and a push for greater transparency police in the west of germany have said they will be begin they will begin disclosing the nationalities of criminal suspects taking a look at the implications of that tell europe correspondent piece of a. police in the west of germany will reveal the nationality of everyone suspected of a crime even if it's not relevant to the case the interior minister of the state of north rhine-westphalia which includes the major cities of cologne and docile golf has said they've taken the decision to improve transparency we will name the nationalities of all suspects that we know for sure i'm convinced that this transparency is the best cure against political deception it may seem like a small thing and the policy of naming the nationality of

a suspect varies from state to state but this has become sensitive subject following the migrant influx into germany the idea behind not travailing the nationality of someone when it isn't pertinent to the crime is to avoid discrimination against minorities by linking nationality to. this new initiative to set some alarm bells ringing for the u.c. feel it may have an impact upon suspects rights the defaults disclosure of nationalities in police press work is not consistent stating where someone is from even if it is irrelevant to the circumstances of the crime doesn't lead to greater transparency this measure is unconstitutional and it is certain that it's immoral i think that it can lead to wrong suspicions that your neighbor might be a trim and all or just based on his nationality and that could lead to further

racism and it can need to excuse enough people that we want to include in the society we don't think that a sas spec's nationality adds anything to the case they're all those that have accused the german media around authorities in the past of a meeting the nationality of those involved in a case so as to not draw attention to crimes that have involved the migrants. it was. so far we still don't have any suspects so we don't know who the culprits are. making this an issue by oversimplifications and connecting it to the refugee issue is nothing but a misuse of the discussion now it is about clearing the facts and drawing the necessary conclusions i would like to add that it is completely improper for us and for the people who judge objectively to link

a group that appeared to come from north africa where the refugees this is improper and i want to prevent this massively there is no sign that it concerns people who came to cologne as refugee. it's. about a measure oriented toward the population so that they can have better information and better image of the reality on the ground in the city

sees in the hot spots of the country and to allow them to go to church is the situation they are looking at and also to better judge the overall immigration and migration policies the german media guidelines for publishing the nationality of a suspect say to do so it must be grounded in public interest involving serious crimes like murder or terrorism but that ultimately the decision to publish the nationality all the suspect lies with the editorial staff of an outlet so ultimately whatever decision is made someone is going to be. thank you to join us in joining us here on r.t. international we're back at the top of babel the latest headlines will see them.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in. spearing dramatic development only. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.

and you're watching going underground while we're away we're going to be showing something a favorite episodes of this season coming up in this show will the west survive the impending economic collapse we speak to the adventure capitalist who made billions with george soros about the ever growing debt that will cause the worst crash in history and as mainstream media obsesses over who will be the next tory prime minister we examine the issues that really matter from wiki leaks to win brush with legendary writer and musician. the civil coming up in today's going underground but 1st away from the u.s. economic was on the russia venezuela and iran to its attack on the superpower of the 21st century china is what the doldrums not yet resigned f.b.i. director christopher ray says about china it's a threat to our economic security and by extension it's a threat to our national security. but it's even more fundamental than that this is behavior that file ates the rule of law. it violates principles of fairness and

integrity it violates our rules based world order that's existed since the end of world war 2 put plainly china's scenes determined to steal its way up the economic ladder at our expense we've been unable to secure an interview with the chinese ambassador to london about allegations like these that china is a rogue state bent on theft suffice it to say that the us is clearly violated the post 945 rules based order from korea and vietnam to palestine nicaragua and cuba here though is what china is saying about us policy if the us insists china will have to respond to me highness never afraid of any pressure on china certainly has been pressured he has a us cable news presenter telling the world not even to be surprised by revelations from former cia contractor edward snowden now in moscow for safety it's not a huge surprise that the u.s. military is engaged in our fence of cyber attacks.
