being locked up and no. fight by 7 keys written on from. you watching national bring your life news update from austin jail here in moscow welcome to the program. and fast this hour the leaders of russia and iran have wrapped up their 5th summit over the long running conflict in syria a correspondent with the national has been following the talks in the talks capital . it 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 and this time the talks focused on 3 major things 1st and number
9:02 pm
one was the situation in syria is no than province small of the the it is a very huge area it is believed to be home right now from $2.00 to $3000000.00 people so 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 a very dangerous terrorists very hard to deal with not along negotiate with the chorus of the 3 leaders and the 3 countries and syria now the regional players and outside players have been facing this big challenge how to get treat of 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 to mr added
9:03 pm
a gun and mr clinton that 1st of all counted terry's operations in that area shoot continue for 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 heard that from mr han instead of going to mr putin to bring peace to syria and to actually stop 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 can. miti has been approved by turkey iran and russia 150 people those a loyal to the current syrian government and as well as opposition figures they are those who are supposed to represent the syrian people and the international arena and held political stability nation in the country another focus during these talks
9:04 pm
was regarding the territory in north of syria east of the euphrates river and we heard from all 3 leaders that they respect the territorial integrity of syria should be the crucial moment of. stabilizing the situation in that country but at the same time we heard from turkey that they want to create a kind of c.t. of refugees in that area east of your freighters is now under the control of the american troops together with some european nations and turkey of course is involved in that part it's a good initiative but at the same time it kind of contradicts the idea of territorial integrity so i guess there were some breakthrough there were some agreements and major discussions but still the raw
9:05 pm
disagreements between turkey russia and iran on of course how exactly to bring peace to syria and we heard that the next 6 summit on syria will be held in tehran and which means more discussions to come the russians on a rainy and president also discussed the drone strikes on 2 main just saudi arabian oil refineries over the weekend the united states kramer iran is directly responsible something to run itself denies in a patrol 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
9:06 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 the sound of the drums of war is back because oil refineries in saudi arabia went up in flames 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 damages indeed of men's if
9:07 pm
you look at it from one side the world's biggest black gold producer says the strike cut its crude all supplied 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. i bought back to iran the number one troublemaker in the area through washington's
9:08 pm
lenses i mean lately even donald trump has hinted he's ready to engage in diplomacy 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 in a more wise man. 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. war with iran it would be really not why for usa to get into
9:09 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. not some u.k. politics talks to get the stalled praxair process moving forward have fallen flat british prime minister boris johnson at the european commission president in luxembourg this monday but the e.u. says johnson failed to provide any viable alternatives and despite comparing himself to the incredible hulk before the talks boris johnson one ducked out of the joint news conference because a few noisy protesters had gathered nearby. with . was was the
9:10 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 you see is time twice so last week boris johnson losing a series of votes in the house of commons that would see basically parliament pushing back the brags that deadline in passing and no deal drags it legislation as it's been dubbed but we done saw boris johnson's move to suspend parliament coming into play and that's where we are now the parliament still suspended that's despite the scottish court ruling that his suspension of parliament was on norful and so boris johnson has been trying to use that time in between to negotiate a deal with the e.u.
9:11 pm
that would see an alternative to the northern irish backstop but this proved so 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 and 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
9:12 pm
impact analyses for a worst case scenario saying that and no deal breakers you 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. are concerned work needs to really step up pace if a deal is to be struck. an unarmed man has been seriously injured by anti-government protesters in hong kong during the latest round of demonstrations the man reportedly tried to confront a segment of a rally before being fished attacked he was left unconscious on required treatment at the scene with his condition being described as serious video of the incident has gone viral online and we should warn you you may find the following footage upsetting. but you know how you got it was. i don't know it. was other which will mock.
9:13 pm
the protest movement in hong kong marked 100 days over the weekend and once again they clashed with police the demonstrations were initially sparked by a controversial extradition bill back in june since then though the demands of the anti beijing protesters have become much broader and attracted attention and support from the west meanwhile one of the hong kong protest leaders joshua long is carney in the u.s. as part of his world tour he's set to attend a congressional hearing on the so-called home called human and democracy act this choose day one arrived in the u.s. after a visit to job anywhere he was received as an honored guest at events concerning human rights antiwar activists are found as believes the u.s. is playing a decisive role in the hong kong protest movement. from the early beginning this is a movement that is. mari well funded and highly organized over
9:14 pm
years and years by the national endowment for democracy by u.s. and british forces to create a social movement to weaponize opposition to china and to be used as a weapon in the tree for young people or organized absolutely hate china in every possible way and will reigns in ideas that make a separate hong kong and done a deal that's totally hostile to china and all of these protesters when they carry u.s. and british flags and colonial lives that they want the active intervention of the us against china. a prominent separatist leader from disputed kashmir is set to face trial in india over a moderate dating almost 30 years yes it is the head of a group that wants the muslim majority region to belong neither to india nor
9:15 pm
pakistan the 2 nuclear armed neighbors that both want to claim kashmir in full his separatist group has been banned in india under a new anti terror law and though he's a former militant a quarter of a sentry go his group adopted nonviolent methods malik 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 told us about the inhumane prison conditions she says he's being subjected to. imagine any human being locked up in a cage a 5 by 7 feet with an open latvian to sleep there on the really hard cemented floor without any blanket and with this hypertensive 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
9:16 pm
a minute and in the 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 from the dog house and you force them to walk even an animal won't do that because naturally your legs your bones they become stagnant and he requires definite physiotherapy which has been recommended by the doctors from that you tensions increased when india stripped kashmir of its special autonomy status last month india then sent thousands of additional troops arrested full 1000 and imposed a communications blockade on the region. again billie's india is silencing kashmiri voices. it's basically it's that 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 that come and attack us and you know this not to be our properties and you know
9:17 pm
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 waste no connection to the outside world so we're left defenseless and same manner that's what they're doing with us right now they're starving us to death. and 1400000 and. i weiss's are not being heard because naturally we have a voice but or there's a clampdown on communications on internet and is a blanket ban on all the political voices and there's no social media there's no mobile networks no radios don't television so we are totally living on another planet right now the kashmir dispute remains one of the longest on resolved conflicts since the british partitioned india and pakistan in 1947 and indian security expert we spoke to justify it is actions and said that a referendum on kashmir independence is simply not a viable option. has changed the demography in the areas that
9:18 pm
dr paul is what we call as pakistan occupied kashmir. and they have also brought in a large amount of. presence that is the militants the terrorists since india in the decision on august fire 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 noise by pakistan and the support of the terror groups how india. at the moment it's not really clear but the political claim. pakistan occupied kashmir as the unfinished part of partition is still there on the indian political spread sheet if you will. amount to a controversial bill in california which if made you know would force universities
9:19 pm
in the state to provide students seeking to terminate a pregnancy with abortion pills 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 haven't 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 in schools if it gets the approval of california's governor governor in 2023 campus health services at dozens of universities in the state would be required to provide students with abortion pills according to the bill there are more than 400000 eligible female students at california's state university campuses private donations of about $10000000.00 will be used to train stall for and buy ultrasound
9:20 pm
machines bought it's failed that eventually the state would have to cover the cost or universities would have to raise student health fees. a study of adolescent health found that more than $500.00 women a public universities in california seek medication for an abortion at 3 month current tuc radio and t.v. host and reese everson 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 and doing just that we have to give women a choice but we should also be pushing adoption as an option why do we just want to hand them a pill 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
9:21 pm
college students handing them over a pill is not the answer here what 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 we'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 don't have an education don't have the ability going to go after high level jobs i now want and i'm now you're at a because most women ceasars and not interested in being on government and in order not to go saying that most women are shown on and off for even having a b. and more fit only for you know we can get we can allow these women to go through with 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
9:22 pm
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 why did we stop talking about the fact that you can give me a way of saying get off the t.v. 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 the. themselves based on what they know about their life experiences and their socio economic status or are they in a position to move forward and currently take one the role of being a mother that is something that's not taken lightly by these women and i believe that when we allow them the tools to make that 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
9:23 pm
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 and the reality 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. finally for this hour germany's approach to renewable energy has had some of the wind taken out of a sales with strong resistance from people that live in if the power generating biden's don't want 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
9:24 pm
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 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 their craft warning lights are flushing so that you feel like you're in the
9:25 pm
middle of an industrial park go to an oil refinery. during winter months the shadows from the rotating mills create a disk to your living room and there are a lot of complains about it. 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 when males are hurting the environment. renewable energies a great idea but then needs to be a reasonable approach windmills in the forest we are generally against that. bats and insects are being killed on mass and that damage is bio diversity 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
9:26 pm
who bears the burden on us and or when generating zone was built at distance prescribe for smaller meals and that was ok but then they built an additional one that is 50 meters high with these regard to the local community we haven't been asked but just presented with the facts that in the 1st 6 mills were instilled and we urgently considered it 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 corder r.t. brendan burke. that's all from me this hour as always you can head on over to auti dot com for more on their stories and many more many won't for now though stay with us the boom bust.
9:28 pm
the branding maybe the format here is what i've been thinking about next season related episodes filmed on an island 10 experts fight it out for a trophy what do you think ok a more affordable option $25.00 experts. and one red rose another suggestion. no political cookout where we will literally wrote the elite. late night show it's a rare format these days and it's cheap all you need is an old microphone in a printed banner but to leave me with one of my girls i can do this and laughter politics ready gone wild like music. ok crosstalk is not about hype it's about meaning 10 years of talk and still going strong.
9:29 pm
9:30 pm
this is boom bust broadcasting around the world and covering covering all the angles of our 21st century global economy and daniel britto in washington christiane i is on assignment we've got a lot to get to today but 1st we start in the united states. produce pharma has filed for bankruptcy but it's certainly not the end of its legal journey a bankruptcy can take months or even years even without serious objections molly varos contributor to american lawyer was on hand to break down purdue pharma declaration and what it could mean going forward for the fight over who will pay for the opioid prices and how much grieving families will get. plus oil prices and shot up on the news of a drone attack on saudi oil facilities podhoretz above a trading is standing by to begin to oil prices and whether the incidence of the one off or the start of a trend. i love what happened with in facebook getting regulators around the world to set up a.
