in watching r.t. international bring you your live news update from our studio here in moscow and look into the program we do apologize for those technical difficulties at the beginning of the hour barely a european trip by u.s. officials can go by these days without some criticism of russia and following that tradition vice president mike pence has once again warned a russian interference during a visit to poland. now is the time for us to remain vigilant. about the intentions and the actions being taken by russia. as we stand together. and as we see other nato allies follow your lead president and. meet their obligations to our common defense in nato we know their efforts will fail. as their marks come as

a daily beast article frames historical events going back a 100 years as russian interference however as more august i have now argues why stop there there are a few legends as obscure and my g.-d. is this what seems league is the freemasons u.f.o.'s the loch ness monster and big foot there is russian meddling and with every retelling. and the little twist i mean who is going to disprove them the russians have been attacking us for 100 years but moscow mich still doesn't get it now it's the daily beast turns out russian meddling is ancient lenin who already targeted western capsule is i'm i'm specifically britain for a long term campaign of infiltration and subversion. you scared yet well you better be lennon himself was a bit of a medlar says the daily beast though they do say a lot of things but with every telling as i said

a little something gets added in this case another 50 years to russian election meddling plus the 50 years that mr secretary of state pompei you added when it was his. of cool and the one before that and the one before that didn't stop at 2008 you can go back to the seventy's i decided to investigate these claims and fortunately they wouldn't let me play spooky music didn't take long though to discover how all this meddling was literally here is russian octopus depicted in 2018 its tentacles reach far far back into the past same octopus seen in the 1950s there were incidents i think not it's the same one cited again in 1900 how many russian octopuses

do you know there's only one and we'd never have known if not for british imperial propaganda no matter how deeply buried the truth is out there and the new york city forgotten passageways where the monk covered more evidence of russian meddling that you know the russians interfered in the us civil war sent warships to support the north abraham lincoln so and fixedly did they meddle with the americans actually welcome those warships potentially the russians not only lost the election for hillary clinton but the war for the confederate states now this is the part where the spooky music would have been really good found. fathers were infiltrated and recruited by what would all wouldn't become the k.g.b. benjamin franklin himself 7889 was elected to the russian academy of

sciences for his quote scientific contributions others say he passed on early manuscripts of the u.s. constitution as russian handlers the proof is in your wallet look at his face on the $100.00 bill it doesn't smile and it's well known that russians never smile it was difficult but we tracked it back a 1000 years we found russian meddling before russia even existed. anyway millennium ago the ruler of kievan roost married his daughter to the french king and surprisingly the king died very soon and she ruled the fronts for decades a 1000 years of russian medlin proved beyond doubt back to you daily beast at sea which you can dig up about jesus christ and his ties to the

k.g.b. . high tensions have greeted the 1st day of the u.k. parliament getting back down to business following the long summer recess and it's no surprise that bracks it's still dominating proceedings the opposition's hoping to attract enough rival m.p.'s from the ruling conservative party to go against the government and force through a bill that will take the option of a no deal price that off the table for the roi if that happens johnson has signalled he will call for it now general election prime minister caused outrage last week by giving the queen's permission to suspend parliament for 5 weeks it's a live pictures from the british parliament right now on your screen and borscht on those been accused of staging a coup and killing democracy but are too host and former m.p. george galloway to leave it's westminster that's acting under undemocratically. they call it a coup but in fact the cool is then they see that their government has pulled a cool over parliament but it's problem of the has been operating

a coup against the will of the british people it's quite simple really it's no longer even about bricks it it's about democracy if people vote not knowing if their vote is going to count or if it's going to be stolen from them or if they win if the victory will be robbed in front of that is democracy no longer means anything at all that's why i say you can campaign to rejoin the european union if you like. and you won't have much by way of political traction if you do but the decision of the brics referendum to leave the european union just must be implemented anyone who stands in the way of it is not a champion of democracy but is in fact enemy of democracy.

88 bodies have been pulled from the rubble of a jail in southern yemen which was bombed by the saudi led coalition according to the red cross more than 100 people are presumed dead a charity has condemned the attack as shocking the facility how some 170 people medics have been dispatched to the scene of what is thought to be the deadliest strike on the country at this here so it has. been there a few hours after the air strike got me through a whole lot leaner around being able to support around in hospitals around 50 people have been people who need to be can see 110 by 10 people have been healed we enter are still around 20 people missing presumed we are also lying on the door. riad rejects the accusations and insists it took all precautions to

protect protect civilians the coalition also claims the building was not a prison but a storage facility for drones and missiles. this is a traditional who the tactic and a violation of the laws of armed conflict this site was not registered with the united nations and was not on the nose strike list the south and i said let me tonight the rule of the coalition warplanes work the residence in the war planes flew past and drop bombs directly at the building where 170 prisoners were in custody what you are seeing now is a real disaster scene it is a crime against humanity human civil war the rebels against a multinational coalition led by riyadh for years the fighting have resulted in the world's worst humanitarian crisis the head of the yemen delegation of the red cross told us international law may have been broken. that we have been put there to give people what hand we close contact with

them so it was a place that was quite well known nice that we are protected by international humanitarian law when you have pegged. national military the question of why you chose is really at the ground to have a definitive conclusion we need. to get that on the stand what the more deviation what cautionary measures taken by. the said very tragic incident that has killed a very very high number of people. if their day of commemorations is being held in the southern russian town of beslan marking 15 years since the deadliest terror attack in the country's modern history at a local school. ceremony schoolchildren release $334.00 balloons one for each victim of the massacre then hawkins reports from beslan. 334 balloons

released into the sky. 334 lives tragically taken away 15 years ago. the 1st days of september of course russia celebrated as the start of a new academic year the start of new lives when you school children even though the memories are etched in tragedy islamic terrorists took over a 1000 people hostage keeping them without food or water for 3 days on the final day a chaotic gun battle with security forces meant $300.00 plus people never made it out alive. today marks the 3rd and final day of the remembrance services for those who lost their lives at school number one or what's left the left of it a bell was rung symbolically to symbolize the start of that never happened for those children just earlier today at the memorial the names of all the victims were read out as the people here fell still and silent many here today lost

friends relatives and loved ones even more were directly involved in the tragic events of 2004 even those who have little memory or no memory of what happened are still deeply affected you know at this time or just because now you're. going to charge. reforming the world. it's not. his knowledge don't stroudsburg people if it were squashed don't come believe it or not us because of all you do it again could. go on if you called or. pleasure. you got that you're shouted out in your skies over it just don't appreciate. that it just didn't stop when you were proceeding on legends of food. or. look at that and it just goes to just sort of about. spending a few. good hours written by the no

i am about to give in it. just acknowledged i do try. to. impose more and i did. yeah yeah. yeah you could call in any. way to. this cemetery was built specially for the victims of the beslan siege at the time the small town just couldn't cope with the numbers of dead the locals the don't call it that they call it the city of angels where the portraits of the victims are called doubt and the headstones the children forever in childhood the adults forever young. hundreds of lives lost thousands of lives shattered. will never forget.

still to come iran claims it's ready to stop uranium enrichment within hours if the e.u. proves its commitment to the nuclear deal more on that after the break. the temperatures are rising sea levels are rising. and there's a lot there's a few ways to play it if you want to make money on the apocalypse of course there's a couple of great trades on the table but without a doubt this is as we said the last generation. but i believe it was an important accomplishment of diplomacy and it's too early. to talk about its demise but unfortunately the europeans have not been able

to put their money where their mouth is they have been stating support for the g.c. pure but they have not been prepared to take good risks. to invest in order to maintain a great achievement of the compass. welcome back as the world marks the 80th anniversary of the start of world war 2 with the british prime minister has weighed in on moscow's role suggesting the soviet union was essentially as responsible for starting the war as nazi germany. 80 years ago.

invaded poland and triggered the 2nd world war. as pows defended their country gets the nazi old sort soviet forces attack them from the east tracking poll looked between the hammer of fascism the bill of communism. that statement didn't go unnoticed by the russian embassy and london diplomats noted it was absolutely unacceptable to equate the actions of the soviet union with hitler's aggression the embassy also expressed regret that the soviet british alliance during world war 2 and their joint actions against nazi germany seem to have been forgotten by the prime minister among the most prominent cases of soviet british cooperation during world war 2 or the arctic convoys operation british vessels deliver essential supplies to the north of soviet russia braving heavy bombardment by the north east britain lost scores of both merchant and navy vessels with more than 3000 casualties. let's bring in live historian author and broadcaster michael jones for

more on this now what do you make of johnson's statement is it ignorance deliberate attempts to politicize history or something else altogether. well that's a political sound by johnson isn't potent and he's looking basically to say the right thing to the polish government is based on a kernel of truth because it was. packed on the 23rd it will because $939.00 and the soviet union did invade poland but where it goes very wrong is to equate. nazi germany to the soviet union there was only one threat to european peace and $939.00 and that was hitler. are such statements not an insult also to british veterans who played a key role involving in those arctic convoys that we're talking about. well unfortunately in

a wider context yes they are and we have to acknowledge that between 1939 the beginning of the war and 941 there was a pact the non-aggression pact between germany and russia but off to the out of coolth. germany invaded the soviet union and we fought together and in that bigger picture these comments all very much and then felt to those who gave their lives fighting and common cause against fascism why do you think the british soviet cooperation is being downplayed by the current u.k. political establishment well sadly there's a political agenda behind us and there was a great opportunity to that and the cold war. you know then in the 99 to create a new working relationship with the soviet union and then with russia and then said we've gone back basically to a cold war mentality and not from the norm with the opportunity that is being lost

and it's driven by political considerations how important a role would you say the soviet union actually played in world war 2 and the cooperation between the 2 countries as well. well for 1941 through to 945 the soviet union's role was the most important rule of course there was an alliance between the soviet union the united kingdom and of course the united states that over all those contras it was the soviet union that made the greatest sacrifice and we're talking about 27000000 i'm broke the back of the german war machine and it's very important 3 men the that scale the sacrifice. michael jones historian author and broadcaster thank you for joining us on the program it's been a pleasure. iran's foreign minister has urged the e.u.

to prove its commitment to the international nuclear deal and says that tehran is ready to stop the enrichment of uranium within days or even hours that comes after iran announced plans to further reduce its compliance with the treaty starting this week tehran earlier raised its limit on uranium enrichment saying it would breach the deal's restrictions further if no one proves eager to save the accord iran's foreign minister zarif told r.t. why reaching an agreement with the e.u. is key you can see this interview throughout the day on our worlds apart and it's also on our website but for now here's a quick taste. not reaching anybody i'm simply talking about the realities you see all of us when we went to primary school and high school we had bullies in our class and bullies would not stop if people just look at them while they beat another student once they beat the 1st student or go to the 2nd and the 3rd and the 4th did appearance must know that the appetite of the united states for breaking

international law when ever and where ever it set of them really not stopped with chase appealing as it has not our n.f. . unesco the climate change is to be honest with you at the end of the days not even in the interest of the united states in the long term if you have a lawless international behavior you cannot have predictability one state being unpredictable will bring other states to the state of unpredictability and then we will have chaos so it's not in anybody's interest you will not have any rule of law respected if one country starts to break them basically as a matter of habit unfortunately the europeans have not been able to put their money where their mouth is they have been stating their support for the j.c. pure way but they have not been prepared to take the risks and to invest

in order to maintain a great achievement of diplomacy i can only say that that's what they need to do how they want to do it they want to convince the americans or they want to defy the americans it's their decision i believe the americans will not be convinced unless they see a determination for the from the rest of the world to uphold principles of international law as i said a bully. appetite this simply only grow if they see. reaction to the negotiating table because there is a ticket to get to dead to go shooting people and that's for compliance with j.c. purity. and france and local council has been fined 90000 euro for failing to comply with a gender equality law after employed too many women are to charlotte devinsky has the story if you thought gender bias was becoming a thing of the past you'd be wrong over the years much work has been done to create

more jobs when it comes to gender quotas have been put in place with a view to make sure that women have their voices heard and get some of the top jobs but what about when the scales tip well that's exactly what's happened in one french council walk on progressive town just north of leone and it's being fined $90000.00 euros for appointing too many women for the 5 senior jobs went to the fairer sex breaching france's public sector gender parity nourse the council is got smacked i think is comical to be punished for this reason not only do i stand by our appointments i'm proud of having so many women in our management teams french law states that the ratio between men and women can't be more than a 6040 split what many public institutions fail to grasp is that the more applies to both sexes meaning that men can't be underrepresented either but the whole

concept of employing people just because of their gender and not potentially because of the skills has set twitter alight this proves that in forced parity stupid the commune has to play a fine of 900000 a year is because they have too many women in the management team if you are dumb and lazy guy you can get hired. the case of breasts hiring more women than men demonstrates the total absurdity of the parity rule it was inevitable that this would happen one day it's time we looked at people skills before looking at their gender it seems bald on press isn't the 1st council to fall foul of this in 2017 the city of lille was also sanctioned for having too many women at the helm it despite the hoo ha around these particular cases the reality in front is that women are still lagging behind in terms of being represented at the top across the country only 34 percent of women have management positions in local government

finds have also been slapped on those who failed to employ enough women including high level government positions the french finance minister was fined 1700000 euros while the foreign minister responded 450000 euros gender equality may be one of my calls top aims in france i have made a quality between women and men the great cause of my 5 years' time but it seems no matter which way you look at it from it's cold quite seeing to on the right side of its own rules show that you can ski hearty paris. that's a global news update for this hour but don't forget you can always head to our website r.t. dot com for the details on all those stories and many more. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest on the world

of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. when lawmakers manufacture consent to step into the public well. when the ruling classes and project themselves. in the final merry go round listen to the one percent. we can all middle of the room signals. to leave the room getting real news is really. busy this is a sticker from the water bottle phone in the stomach of a fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers there are the bad ones

there the litterbugs are throwing this away industry should be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. that seems cool sets their plastic a 60 costly on my end i need to stay in your own hands at a special projects funded. on the new vest that is the end of it for the city but for now the mountains of waste only grow higher. well you know the fire thing we've kind of adopted because we were called pirate for so long. i mean there. in the small ball it sticks it hard pulling him and it's . not a. 1000000 all self to being told fish already 90 percent of it are not

any blown recommit or. the concept 15 scoops $75.00 tons and they do it several times a day with the big feet no you get an idea on why it isn't simple and. we have to understand we can not stay still and just. be within this deed is the only point is i. am doing this because i want the for the future our world to the future can generations to have out and enjoy the ocean we have found.

there is one organized force which traditionally 20 floats but with all its flaws its been in the forefront of the. efforts to improve the lives of the general population that's were going to slavery so also a barrier to corporate tyranny so it's the one barrier to this vicious cycle going on which does lead to corporate tyranny. a major reason for the concentrated on a fanatic attack on unions our. denies labor is they are democratizing for. to provide a barrier to defend workers' rights closer copyrights generally. and

that interferes with the prerogatives heard by those who own and manage in society . i should say said andy union sentiment in the united states among the elites is so strong that the fundamental couper of labor rights the basic principle in the international labor organization is the rate of free association which would mean the right to form unions u.s. has never ratified. but i think the us may be alone among major societies in that respect. it's considered so far out of the spectrum of american politics it literally has never been considered. a rumor that the us has a lawn very violent labor history is. siding.
