another. 5 by 7 feet with an open. it's 11 o'clock here in moscow and you're watching international live from austin with me. welcome to the program. the leaders of russia turkey and iran have wrapped up their faith summit of the situation in syria and how to help the country's future a correspondent has been following the talks in the turkish capital. has been a very busy day and now the feast on the trilateral summit on syria is over here and karen before that the leaders of turkey iran and russia had a tete a tetes and definitely they had a lot to discuss but these time the talks focused on 3 major things 1st and number
4:02 pm
one was the situation in syria's no than province more of the the it is a very huge area it is believed to be home right now from $2.00 to $3000000.00 people it is also conceded to be the last remaining stronghold of anti government forces in syria including. moderate so-called opposition and also al qaida like islam is very dangerous terrorists very hard to deal with not along negotiate with so porous of the 3 leaders and 3 countries and syria and other regional players and outside players have been facing this big challenge how to get 3 to 5 terrorists and this is something all the 3 leaders agreed should be done of course as soon as possible but how to do that without harming civilians in that area and we heard at the press conference today from all 3 leaders from mr han and
4:03 pm
mr added a gun and mr clinton that 1st of all counted terry's operations in that area shoot continuing another breakthrough that we actually had today as a result of this summit is constitutional committee this is a centerpiece of the u.n. peace after he's in syria and this is a crucial mcnamee's and we've heard that from mr han and mr going to mr putin to bring peace to syria and to actually establish the entire region and it has been discussed for almost a year already and today we heard that the least of the members of this committee. t. has been approved by turkey iran and russia 150 people though use a loyal to the car in syrian government and as well as opposition figure he's they are those who are supposed to represent the syrian people and they international arena and held political stability nation in the country nother focused your in
4:04 pm
these talks was a regarding the terry terry in north of syria east off the euphrates river or we heard from all 3 litter is that they respect that territorial integrity off syria should be the crucial moment all of a stabilizing the situation in that country but at the same time we heard from turkey of that they want to careen kind of c. t. whole of refugees in that area east of your frey to his rebate is now on to the control of the american troops together with some european nations and turkey of course is involved in that part to good initiative but at the same tomic kind of contradicts the ideal for territorial integrity so i guess they were some breakthrough they were some agreements and major discussions but still the raw not disagreements between terry cure russia and iran on of course how
4:05 pm
exactly to bring peace to syria and we heard thought the next 6 summit on syria we will be held in tehran and which means more discussions to come of russian turkish an iranian presidents also touched on the trend strikes on to h.s. side here a been or a fine rays of the we can't united states claims ever on it is directly responsible wish to iran denies it had to try and come reports it's not even been a week since the famous most stosh was shaved off the face of america's foreign policy if you know what i mean but even without mr bolton someone else who is actually in charge of diplomacy has tweeted the u.s. will join efforts with allies to ensure iran is held accountable for its aggression and there's plenty of other hawks to explain how not supposed to be done it is now
4:06 pm
time for the united states to put on the table an attack on iranian oil refineries if they continue their provocations were increased nuclear enrichment so this sound of the drums of war is back because oil refineries in saudi arabia went up in flames now after a hit see this island right here that is the kingdom of bahrain as seen from space the fire was so huge that the black of the smoke was almost just as big as you can see right there but who said it was to iran the u.s. state department even though boss might compare didn't explain how they knew the rain ians did it i'll tell you what the who the rebels who are fighting a civil war in yemen even said it was us but for washington that's just a smokescreen. amid all the cool deescalation iran has now launched and i'm president of the tyco on the world's energy supply the damage is indeed
4:07 pm
a men's if you look at it from one side the world's biggest black gold producer says the strike cut its crude old supply by around a half donald trump quickly called the saudi crown prince to offer him full support but we know just how much oil and how much cash saudi arabia has riyadh has already called its buyers telling them the disaster is still not enough to disturb its black gold exports plus they've been known as a western darling in the middle east for years and the saudis have been bombing the who theory rebels in yemen with the solid approval of the us and allies. but back to iran the number one troublemaker in the area through washington's lenses i mean lately even donald trump has hinted he's ready to engage in diplomacy
4:08 pm
with their leadership could happen it could have. no problem with the black plumes of smoke from the burning saudi oil have probably clouded those intentions with or without john bolton what to do with iran remains the u.s. administration's toughest puzzle we should really think very carefully and the european view did i think be cautious and really looking at it more wise. to what usa really clearly wants to do is that take this as a pretext perhaps to ratchet up more pressure on iran and also potentially. go. for war with iran it would be really not why for usa to get into
4:09 pm
a war situation and perhaps wait a little while i get the information and really analyze that to see who was the real perpetrator. told us they had they stalled crankset process moving forward have fallen flat british prime minister barak johnson met the european commission president in luxembourg this monday but the east as johnson failed to provide any viable alternatives and despite comparing himself to the incredible hulk before the talks crossed johnson and ducked out of a joint news conference because a few noisy protesters had gathered nearby. was the was was
4:10 pm
was it's on. mr johnson. he holds the future of all u.k. citizens and every you citizens live in the u.k. he sense it's his responsibility. you know people our people count on you but the clock is ticking time twice so last week boris johnson losing a series of votes in the house of commons that would see basically parliament pushing me back the brags the deadline in passing and no deal drags it legislation as it's been dubbed but we've done saw boris johnson's move to suspend parliament coming into play and that's where we are now the parliament still suspended us despite the scottish court ruling that his suspension of parliament was on norful and so boris johnson has been trying to use the time in between to negotiate a deal with the e.u. that would see an alternative to the northern irish backstop but this proved so
4:11 pm
contentious in accepting any deal between the 2 sides but it would appear if you've been depending on who you believe there hasn't been much progress the prime minister says that talks are going along swiftly and that he sees a deal that could be struck between the 2 sides but many on the e.u. sides including the locks and the prime minister who resource speaking on his own at that press conference saying that the responsibility for any alternative proposals for a deal have to come from the u.k. side in the european side say they're simply not seeing that progress taking place and all of this expedited by the fact that of course we're heading towards that october 31st deadline and should no deal be struck between the 2 sides well then the u.k. will leave with no deal on a trading relationship on wall trade organization rules that many economists here in the u.k. have said will cause huge disruption and actually in fact even the government's own
4:12 pm
impact analyses for a worst case scenario saying that and no deal breakers it could see shortages of fuel and medicine food and huge queues at the border at dover so far as many here in the u.k. a concern. work needs to really step up to do this to be struck. a prominent separatist leader from disputed kashmir is set to face trial in india over a murder dating back almost 30 years ago yaseen malik is the head of a group that wants the muslim majority region to belong neither to india nor pakistan the nuclear armed neighbors that both want to claim kashmir and for his separatist group has been banned in india under a new anti terror law though he's a former militant a quarter of a century ago his group adopted nonviolent methods mike faces trial for allegedly leading a group of militants who killed 4 indian air force personnel in kashmir in 1990 he's been in an indian prison since march under a law that allows for suspects to be held for up to 2 years without charge his wife
4:13 pm
told us about the inhumane prison conditions she says he's being kept in. imagine any human being locked up in a cage of 5 by 7 feet with an open latvian and to sleep there on the really hard cemented floor without any blanket and with this hyper to and see halogen lights on his head all the time he's got blood clots in his eyes because the light doesn't go off and he's not allowed to open the cage even for a minute and in there died 24 hours just for 10 to 15 minutes to open the cage and like you know you with a leash you pull out a dog from the dog house and you force them to walk even an animal won't do that because naturally your legs your arms your bourne's they become stagnant and he requires definite physiotherapy which has been recommended by the doctors from that you. tensions increased when in just stripped kashmir of its
4:14 pm
special autonomy status last month india sent thousands of additional troops arrested $4000.00 and imposed a communications blockade on the region. again believes india is silencing kashmiri forces it's basically it's said last for you know just an easy terms like a land grab i mean we're sitting in this house and just imagine if some gangsters it common to attack us and you know this not to be our properties and you know they force us to write the name in the you know give them the property rights and cut off all the electricity all food supplies and we have no voice no connection to the outside world so we're left defenseless in the same manner that's what they're doing with us right now they're starving us to death. 1.4000000 and and i white says are not being heard because naturally we have a boy spoke or there's a clampdown on communications on internet and there's a blanket ban on all the political voices and there's no social media there's no
4:15 pm
mobile networks no radios don't television so we're talking living on another planet right now the kashmir dispute remains one of the longest unresolved conflicts since partition partitioned india and pakistan in 1009 $107.00 and indian security expert we spoke to justified new delhi's actions and said that's a referendum on kashmir independence is not a viable option. pakistan has changed the demography in the areas that it occupies what we call as pakistan occupied kashmir and they have also brought in a large amount of the regular presence that is the militants and the terrorists since india had taken the decision on august 5 the more the government big these decisions to ensure that there would be nor. while it's from the people and also that there will be annoyed by pakistan and the support of the
4:16 pm
terror groups how india. at the moment it's not very clear but the political claim to pakistan occupied kashmir as the unfinished part of partition is still there on the indian political spreadsheet if you will. to a controversial bill in california which if made law would force universities in the state to provide students seeking to terminate a pregnancy with abortion tells the proposal has sparked outrage. by ensuring that abortion care is available on campus college students will not have to choose between delaying important medical care or have been to travel long distances on these classes the work not on my dime not on my dime taxed me to help the homeless tax me to help social services the don't tax me to pay for the disposal of human life they should be ashamed to risk women's lives and schools. if it gets the
4:17 pm
approval of california's governor in 2023 compass health services it dozens of universities in the state will be required to provide students with abortion pills according to the bill there more than 400008 triple female students at california state university campuses private donations of about $10000000.00 will be used to train staff and buy ultrasound machines but it's feared that eventually the state would have to cover the cost of all universities would have to raise student health fees. a study of adolescent how found that more than $500.00 women at public universities in california seek medication for an abortion every month current to radio and t.v. host and resurfaces attorney and author discussed the development we have to allow women to decide if they want to pursue their education with the complications of bearing children that would be an economic harm to them they have to be able to be able to make a choice and providing them the tools with the abortion pill is simply just doing
4:18 pm
and doing just that we have to give in women a choice but we should also be pushing adoption as an option why do we just want to hand them repel and say it's ok here take care of your problems you know what the problem is we need to address this before these women get pregnant we need to educate these college students handing them over a pill is not the answer here are we going to say to a woman you know what you had a chance to get an education to create a better life for yourself but you completely ruined that and now that you're pregnant with you're not going to be able to complete your studies or there's a risk that you won't be able to do that and so you just have to drop out and your person who don't have an education job have the ability going to go after high level jobs while i now want to and i'm now you're at a because most women ceasars and not interested in being on government and oh in order not to the same emotion when i'm showing off or even not having already being more fit only for you know we can get we can allow these women to go through with
4:19 pm
a full. term pregnancy and allow them to choose adoption but can we actually be honest and discuss the impact of carrying a child for 9 months on a college campus when you absolutely had no desire to be pregnant not only was i an 18 year old mother and did i finish my career and am i here talking to you today but i'm also the product of adoption and adoption is an option and it's an option that seems to be totally off the table in america today when we stop talking about the fact that you can get a deal in fair and off they will carry all the that is born in america every baby is born there are 37 families that want to adopt that baby something is very wrong when we're handing out abortion pills on campus we're allowing women to decide for themselves based on what they know about their life experiences and their socioeconomic status are they in a position to move forward and currently take on the role of being a mother that is something that's not taken lightly by these women and i believe
4:20 pm
that when we allow them the tools to make the choice they're going to say you know i have to make this choice for me very simply morally wrong it's morally wrong to promote abortion in a wave that it becomes the chosen choice where it becomes the number one choice over a life i'm pro-choice i believe in a woman's right to choose i believe there are circumstances where she should have that choice but i also believe that we need to advocate for a life the reality is is that going to school full time and having a newborn baby is very difficult and it's a burden that some women have decided that they don't want to take on and frankly who are we to say that they should be forced to go to term with a pregnancy if they're feeling that they're not ready. to me as opposed to renewable energy has had some of the wind taken out of it sails with strong resistance from people that live near power generating turbines final quarter went
4:21 pm
to meet some of them. germany's 2030 renewable energy goals are on a collision course with reality the country's energy sector needs a hero something to save the green agenda before it's too late and to fill those larger than life issues the government has put its faith in wind power we are convinced that the expansion towards 65 percent of renewable power on the grid by 2030 can only be reached if the expansion of onshore wind is revived for years wind power was a main driving force of germany's fast expanding green energy industry making up almost a quarter of total production so far this year its proponents praise wind as one of germany's most important energy sources creating thousands of jobs and many megawatts of energy while also cutting c o 2 emissions but wind farm expansion has slowed to a snail's pace and these towering males have cost hundreds of anti wind citizens
4:22 pm
initiatives to spring up across the country so i drove down to brandenburg task residents how they felt about these when mills being built in their backyards and enough at night their craft warning lights or flushing so that you feel like you're in the middle of an industrial park go to a new refinery in this year in winter months the shadows from the rotating mills create a disk to your living room and there are a lot of complains about it i was on talk we're going to even sit outside on sundays or open our windows it annoyed because of the noise. whole landscape licas those are serious problems but noises and shadows aren't the only issues here in fact residents are complaining about other ways in which windmills are hurting the environment. you know renewable energies a great idea but then needs to be a reasonable approach windmills in the forest we are generally against that. must enough bats and insects are being killed on mass and that damage is bio diversity
4:23 pm
by technology that's supposed to be environmentally friendly there are more negative outcomes than positive ones and to top it all off they feel that the government doesn't care who bears the burden. or when generating zone was built at a distance prescribed for smaller meals and that was ok but then they built an additional one that is 50 meters higher with these regard to the local community we haven't been asked but just presented with the facts since it's been to the 1st 6 mills were installed and we urgently considered positive now they're getting bigger taller louder people are getting annoyed and now there is a notion that our contribution to renewables has been fulfilled and the expansion should stop and if the government doesn't explore other alternatives in response to this grassroots opposition germany's environmental goals could be gone with the wind donald corridor r.t.

brendan burke. a classic board game monopoly is getting an update to address the gender pay gap is called ms monopoly and then shows female players receive more money than male players american toymaker has both bodies a positive message about the empowerment but not all women are impressed. i think and there are those. never in the. plague.

4:26 pm
comment or acknowledge maggie's role in originates from the game it trivializes the the plight of the women in the workforce i don't understand what they're trying to do it back they also pay lip service if best to the originator of of monopoly who was a woman and what it does is it basically takes a cause which many people. take very seriously and should the notion of eat quality and equivalent treatment in the light and reduces it to that of a board game and you start off where women make more money and somehow i guess this is supposed to inspire conversation or some type of insight into what women go through i think it's tawdry it's pathetic and again stupid not the news i'll be back in around 30 minutes time with more updates to stay with
4:27 pm
