jailed for brazilian president lula da silva gives exclusive interview to r.t. spanish from his prison. no one has except for interference in the affairs of a sovereign state i do not support american brazilian colombian or any other interfering. good morning just this for the 4th of october life we are to world to center it's kevin over the 30 minute round of hope you can stay with me starting with us to focus on north korea more talks today negotiations negotiators rather arrive in sweden to resume stalled nuclear talks with the u.s. is a big day it comes just a few days after pyongyang say that they tested a new c launched missile. the search area had a call with japanese minister defense kono where they discussed north korea they both agree that the north korea tests are unnecessarily provocative and do not set

the stage for diplomacy in that north korea should cease these tests well north korea says its missile is capable of being launched from a submarine indicating that a major expansion of its weapons capabilities and some are melissa calling this the most significant test of folks in the country 1st begun with washington in 2018 just a few hours later the u.s. lose to test water going into continental ballistic missile over the pacific the safe and national security purposes a correspondent kind of mopin looks deeper at washington's justification here north korea and the united states are headed back to the negotiating table this weekend says president trump we'll see they want to talk to will be talking to will see so we can all just relax and anticipate one step closer to world peace right well no a missile was launched from a north korean submarine on wednesday the u.s. state department burned with outrage we call in love korea to refrain from provocations abide by their obligations under un security council resolutions and

remain engaged in substantial francis stands negotiations to do their part to ensure peace and stability on the korean peninsula and achieved in the canaries ation now to prove their point about peace and stability the united states launched an intercontinental ballistic missile from the coast of california on the exact same day but they say it is not a provocative move according to the pentagon brass it's all about peace and security this visible message of national security. interests when a potential aggressor so let's recap shall we this is the pug 3 it's endangering the stability and peace of the entire region and this is the minuteman 3 i.c.b.m. it's just making the world a safer and happier place in august the united states once again conducted military drills in south korea where. cursing for an all out war against the north but they say it's nothing provocative about it simply a measure of security north korea didn't see it that way into korean contacts will

be difficult unless they put an end to military exercise or give a plausible explanation in a sincere manner that is worth mentioning these drills were scaled down a bit compared to the ones done in the past we are working very hard to make sure that it is not perceived as provocative to go as far as to modify even the name of the exercise and to modify the scenario to take out all the offensive characteristics it's all about perception if we do it it's understandable for security purposes think of the i.c.b.m. as a jolly little kite bringing joy but if they view it it's a provocation putting the entire region into danger yes it's one sided attitudes like that that are sure to bring peace on earth they fired off an i.c.b.m. missile. you know like 4200 miles to the marshall islands as wasn't a small underground or underwater test so the us is. wants to be able to behave one way as

a military might with its military might around the world and the other countries do the opposite and so unfortunately we are left with these types of instances where very few people question the power of the military of the united states very few people question why the united states is testing the nuclear deterrent if you will. in the u.k. the christian doctor who was sacked after refusing to use female pronouns when discussing a transgender woman has lost his legal fight against his former employers in an interview with dr david my critics played why he refused to back down in the dispute there's a christian i would consider the dishonest used. to christian. both of my walk with god and certainly as a doctor it's quite simply unscientific and unproven.

that i would never refuse to treat any patient that whatever they are they come from the question here is whether open be forced to do something so something which goes against my conscience. only by the desire for only what the but i desire not to be forced to do something that i cannot do dr david mack referred work for britain's national health service for 26 years despite that he was subsequently sacked after a conversation with his boss during which he refused hypothetically to refer to quote a 6 foot tall bearded man as madam while the doctor insists as employers discriminated against his religious beliefs an employment tribunal has ruled that his objection was incompatible with human dignity. and lack of belief in transgenderism and conscientious objection to transgenderism in our judgment are incompatible with human dignity and conflict with the fundamental rights of others in so far as those

police form part of his wider faith his want of faith also does not satisfy the requirements of being worthy of respect in a democratic society dr mark critz says that the ruling against him says a dangerous president too. i was taken off the shop floor and i was i say interrogated or the joke is did i. about her believe by my manager are people going to be pulled off the shop floor of the national health service down interrogated about their beliefs this is really really the precedence of the case and that's that's why we're really quite shocked at the porpoises very quickly the 1st one is that you're not allowed not believe the transgender movements maxims the 2nd one is comparable speech the president is believe that what made us male and female and for sex and pronouns of this is not allowable or is the core christian believes

or christianity is not compatible with modern society or human dignity these are very big questions each one of those huge. freedom. good lord talk going to has to be right competitive touch christian legal activist andrew williams for their views on the story conflicted fundamentally with his faith and also with his belief as a doctor and have best to treat such a patient is a religion which actually helps people to understand who they are made in the image of god male and female there are some passages in the bible which are in conflict with basic human rights and in some paul in the new testament seem to endorse slavery in the old testament it justifies the killing of gay and lesbian people so we have to grapple with this the reality for him is this that the way in which really to help someone who is confused about their gender is to help them to live in the biological gender in which they were born that would certainly be his way

his belief of how to look after a person who is confused about their gender trans people are not confused they have a genuine sincere overwhelming belief that they are something other than they were signed a birth for forcing society forcing medics forcing teachers full seeing doctors forcing the people the general public at large forcing us all to say something is that is not true is not kind it's not compassionate to someone that is confused about their gender i think it's very offensive for andrea to say that and i'm sure she would would not want to add to the suffering and indeed the sieved non-recognition or denial that trans people so often face that is not delusional is not being dishonest is not avoiding the truth it is the reality that gender is

a spectrum we now live in a more open liberal tolerant society where people no longer have the fear they have to hide away and suppress that is. we live in an older nonuse and hering and very very. well documented used in her physics is not an intellectual exercise that you're at your age when i think that we are in a debate here please let me speak there are who they are and to call them confused is deeply and profoundly insulting the reality was he realized that he had the very statement of saying that you made male and female was a statement the cause offense the reality is that the saying that you get left out in the cold is the reality is that our children no longer no longer being taught that they are boys and girls they are being taught extraordinary things where their sexualized is here in our children in culture is absolutely huge and where that's all leading is to a great confusion and a great chaos. for brazilian president going to silver has refused to be put in

a semi open prison with better conditions claiming he won't accept bargaining with his rights and freedom. of the silver was the president of brazil from 2003 to 10 he then served as head of the presidential staff in the administration of his successor and then it 2017 lu was convicted of money laundering and corruption and sentenced to 12 years subsequently in prison it in r.t. exclusive our spanish channel spoke to the former president in his person. no one has except for nefarious in the affairs. i do not support american brazilian colombian or any other interference with their attempts to control another country by promoting their own candidates by creating a fake figurehead likewise. i'm totally against this these are situations that a democratic country has to deal with on its own. brazil is a very big country and it can be fully sovereign it could become one of the main

actors on international policy. my the role of president putin plays in the modern world it shows that the world cannot be held hostage to u.s. policy during the interview touched upon the political crisis in another latin american country peru here is thoughts on that. i think peru is seeing the same thing that is happening in other south american countries so we kept seeing new ways of staging a coup but this isn't the 1st time a president has tried to take the national parliament is happening in brazil as well that there is only one way out of such crisis and that's democracy is that the situation in peru is difficult and they need new alleged. well tensions have surged in peru after its president dissolved congress for failing to support his anti corruption reforms the parliament which consists mainly of opposition parties then voted to remove him from office throughout the week crowds have been rallying in lima in support of the president r.t. spanish correspondent nicholas sanchez o'donovan is in the proving capital for us

these protesters took to the streets of delhi to say this is all president martinelli starwars decision to dissolve congress earlier this week the president and the opposition led congress have been tied up in a battle with widespread corruption at its poll actually martin discover has seen most of the reforms be improved by calling. yes and he did say that there is because lawmakers have been protected same party politicians and businessmen that have ties to corruption this actually to the brazilian construction company the bridge that has the actually spent millions of dollars in bribes here in peru as we've heard many here support the president but others demand general elections and they say the peru needs fresh air i mean the president

martin discover has appointed a new cabinet with many new ministers as well it's going to be a few difficult months for them and but the truth is that until we have the new sit in congress in peru the president is going to have to govern through presidential decree. as a crisis improve developes many analysts are drawing parallels to the situation over venezuela it also had its national assembly the equivalent of congress dissolved by the ruling forces the opposition rejected the move an appointed their own interim president as the country split some state sided with the u.s. backed opposition political analysts we spoke to says that despite the similarities though between the situations in peru and venezuela they are treated very differently by washington. if we compare bin is clearly and we compare peru indeed i mean in this occasion the united states had decided to step back and see what will happen and what is going to be. a role of the united states if they would be

ally doing exactly the same as they have done before you know you would have expected or as we say they would support if they would be more like you know inclined to do the same things and to be more coherent in their in their political stances the united states has played like a kind of a double a rule that's not very clear right you apply some criteria in the case of some countries have the and not different set of criteria to get him to asian or prices in another country wage that shows probably in dublin more are 15 posts this friday i had a honey trouble mobile may 2 soldiers in the baltic because the lines tests of troops loyal to you coming up.

join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. have a situation. grandchildren were little children there are 3. is it true that. these cars used to people drive the. breakroom. to. make or break the entire proposition financials ation news because without a base science of value to value time you have no basis to value this financial eyes post industrial economy whatsoever it's all basically a guessing game. by

going to warning in this promote multiculturalism and diversity the british army seems with offended one of the racial groups it was trying to attract he tweeted the black history month is not be expanded to include asian people too so it could telescope the story. there are some battles you can't when just ask the british army no i'm not talking about iraq or afghanistan or even the faster war i'm talking about the fight to win over the hearts and minds of each and every citizen of us old blighty black history month has kicked off in the u.k. this week in the british army determined to keep its finger on the pulse has dedicated the next 30 days not just to black people but to all the asians who have

served in its ranks still haven't got over that guilt that we missed a trick here we didn't expect that black history month has expanded to include the history of asian people and the contributions to our recognition of our historic partnership with the indian army but in the minefield of political hypersensitivity the initiative might just be a flop it's been slammed by the very communities it was supposed to ingratiate yourself with unless these asians are black i don't want to see to be honest through 12 months a year black history month to cup one month of the 12 but they wanted to be black asian minority ethnic munce one can never months make that asian history month i'm sure a lot of asians will appreciate it come on don't be stupid it's black it to black history month why is that you can criticize the army for its lack of manners for the move a very small point for the british so thank goodness for the good old delete button

because the tweet in question was removed not before had fired up the haters of course and even the odd lonely voice of support. the contribution of sikh hindu and muslim communities can't be ignored if they consider themselves politically than they are i can't even pretend to know what politically black is but i can tell you what black history month is initiated by a friend across the pond the us decided to give up a month every year you know to repent for all those centuries of slavery and segregation and it's part of a growing trend of affirmative action that might just be backfiring take world famous harvard university for example turns out it's got racial quotas twin show a diverse community something that didn't go down too well with a group of asian americans who filed a lawsuit saying they were being penalized in favor of their fellow black applicants despite having far better entrance schools and indeed multiple studies

have shown that if the university based its admissions process just on academic factors what a bizarre notion asians make up over 40 percent of harvard's classes that's more than twice its current figures. the course conclusion the harvard has shown that its admissions program serves its compelling interest in diversity but assume racial categorizations are necessary to serve the interest and while the court might have backed hard at this time it's opened a can of worms an increasingly divisive issue affirmative action lifeline that its heyday is over so there's a huge amount of marketing executives and only sort of social media advisers you know in places like the british army if you're completely detached from reality. and that sort of started to use all the social awareness term means things like work history month just for marketing and this entire social awareness kind of you know progressive stuff should probably let the people who are actually experiencing racism probably left to look older people who are actually out there on the streets

variance in these things rather than you know. who are sort of defining and sort of deciding they're what they're i think that by providing a lower standard for a certain race of people and a higher standard for a different race of people certainly 1st of all creates a lot of conflict between different races of people that would not have existed otherwise but i think it also demotivates. certain people you know who probably would have been more motivated to go out and do so based off of their hard work and absent which now they're not being rewarded for and i think that it provides unfair advantages soon we're going to run out of months and seeing any action one takes to place one minority waggle faith and not that you've got to admit it's tough out there on the front lines of political correctness. reporting with the british army trying to put his house in order the nato experts are testing the loyalties of those soldiers by using

in wall there is always strategies of making progress and it doesn't matter if it's the strategy with the liar or so on a strategy by every radio broadcast or different way and no. let's say you want to weigh roll up to a 'd program. something to influence soldiers or troops can be done by the internet i think that's a natural process that soldiers can to be food easily by a social media. any kind of group can be food is the guy social media use we just have to see and social networks we have to if we have a product or an ally says what's going on there there's a lot of all through. this information and so i'm not very astonished at this. an impeachment inquiry into the us president happening the same time as

the 2020 race for his job as created the perfect conditions for perfect storm of political division as democratic candidate discovered will try to make a way through an airport. i. was. told it. was officially launched last week old claims donald trump leaned on ukraine's president to investigate democratic candidate rival joe biden all in exchange for u.s. support for kiev and it's giving both sides plenty to talk about been very reluctant to go down the path of impeachment but if the president is essentially trying to browbeat a foreign leader into doing something illicit that and that may be the only remedy least of the notes of that call by the white house confirms this behavior which undermines the integrity of our election the dignity of any president see that is the smoking gun it's right there in his own words he's admitted it and this means

it is time for the house to do its impeachment proceeding our friends across the capital rush to judgment. and deeper into their nearly 3 role impeachment addiction is embarrassing the speaker pelosi continues a switch for impeachment the democrats think they're going to impeach on this i think it will be politically fatal fact despite the inquiry the president's approval rating hit 49 percent this week according to new poll just 2 points shy of his highest ever mark we spoke to political analyst who's says the program is actually improving trumps chances of staying in. it's really quite something for and elizabeth warren to parade around the united states. failing to explain anything about true it true true aspects of her background so i'm not in favor of tackling i actually think that dollar trump and his people have no inside knowledge but i believe they are holding their breaths hoping that elizabeth warren is in fact the nominee i'm not a lawyer and i understand it you take a bunch of serious lawyers in a room and they will tell you it is not in

a beach ball offense yet they are wasting a tremendous amount of time on this and turning off independent voters aggravate irritating people who support donald trump and guaranteeing at this moment that donald trump a win the election 2020 in a landslide assuming he remains healthy and safe 26 minutes past the friday morning from moscow review watching around the world who day goes great deal to get check it out t. dot com for the latest from us as it happens and stand by the one the only larry king on air on this channel right after this break. senator chuck schumer famously said shortly after trump was elected to take on the intelligence community they had 6 ways from sunday at getting back to you in line to the field of russia gate hoax and this nonsense with ukraine this characterization appears to be spot on should be all fear the deep state.

younger voters now comprise america's largest voting bloc but how motivated are they to participate in the election of 2020 well one of the leading millennial voices in journalism is here with her take one on one with lauren duca on this edition. welcome to politicking i may be holmes sitting in for larry king lauren duke became widely known only a few years ago following a scorching bedri written for teen vogue and titled donald trump is gaslighting america well the piece became a viral sensation and lauren was suddenly and in demand speaker and guest on t.v. and radio well she's back in the public eye with a new book and the assertion that donald trump 2016 when shook young people out of

a coma and reminded that voting block that government by and for the people requires their input so will younger voters participate in the 2020 election process and who or what will motivate them to do so so let's talk about this with journalist and feminist advocate lauren duca who joins me right here from new york city she's the author of the newly released book how to start a revolution young people and the future of politics. thanks for having me great so your book is about starting a revolution why do you think we need that right now. i think that for too long we've understood democracy as a thing that we have and not a thing that we do there is such extensive nation among young people after that article took off gaslighting for teen vogue there was a conversation about the trumpet ministrations decision from a nation but also young people do they care about politics do young women care about politics and i sort of started having

a lot of conversations about that question which does not tell the full story about who we are often young people's apathy is stated as if it's a natural extension of low voter turnout statistics low voter turnout statistics are real and a problem but it's not that we don't care it's that we've been pushed out of the conversation and made to feel as if we're not qualified and don't have permission and i think what's shifting not only in reaction to but a number of major cultural shifting. actors like black lives matter the me too movement the gun reform protest led by the parklane students all of these things are contributing overall to a shift in agency and self-determination in which young people are deciding that we're no longer willing to wait our turn until we're deemed qualified to take part in the political conversation right so a lot of let me ask you about that because you know traditionally typically typically young people do have a lower voter turnout rate than older people and to what extent do you think that

so.
