u.s. state department approved the sale of millions of dollars worth of missiles to ukraine the country proving to be a rich source of money scandal and political intrigue for washington. from moscow to the world this is r.t. international from the team myself unit and we'll hello and welcome we begin in the french capital this hour where police are attempting to remove hundreds of environmental protesters from a shopping center. activist from the yellow best in the expansion rebellion group broke into the it's all in the face of horus on saturday morning they have done their a demonstration the last occupation before the end of the world they have been developing or quote consumption driven society and calling for an end to capitalism shops in

the complex were forced to close as a result of the occupation. let's keep the programme in front terrorism prosecutors have said they suspect the perpetrator of thursday's deadly not a front page a part of this police station of adhering to an extreme interpretation of islam. yes you want the investigation has revealed the perpetrator was in contact with several individuals likely to belong to the salafist an islamist movements in addition testimony indicates that he did hear to a radical vision of islam this knife attack was a catastrophe that shook paris to its core the assailant was a 45 year old michael harp and who had worked at a police station for 15 years and all that time the police who are tasked with preventing such attacks had no suspicions of haarp and would kill 4 of his colleagues with a knife he smuggled in. what

exactly are the authorities actually saying about the attackers motives well anti-terrorism prosecutors are currently handling this case and they still don't have enough information to pin down the the assailant motivations exactly but they did reveal that the assailant converted to islam 18 months prior. or to the attack now of course the authorities say that that's not an automatic sign of radicalization but there's other information they also revealed that he had a radical vision of islam and was also in communication with solid islamists which of course is enough to keep terrorist motivations on the table in considering the

situation but so far the police haven't found any evidence as to anything pointing towards religious motives after they searched his house in the suburbs of paris you can talk with some of the details 45 i think you say. what else do we know about the attackers. well his wife was arrested after he was shot dead in the police station after the murder and she told authorities that haarp in was actually acting deranged and was hearing voices in his head the night before this attack took place did that have something to do with his motivations of course maybe but so far the authorities haven't connected all the dots to say for sure. ecuador has been shaken by another wave of violent protests after a state of emergency was declared thursday demonstrations began over the government's decision to end fuel subsidies which is expected to cause prices of petrol and diesel to more than double.

i was. transport workers helping leading a nationwide strike the president is using emergency powers to the ploy troops in an attempt to maintain order but there have been scenes of chaos police clashed with protesters and there's been at least 3 $150.00 arrests of the fuel subsidies cost the government more than a $1000000000.00 a year. there is no chance they'll be reinstated it's all part of the president's plan to cut public spending to meet the terms of an. even march takes a deeper look at the impact it's having. the i.m.f. is the generous and open handed and giving and to see whenever a country's economy is in grave need my immediate priority for the i.m.f. . to help members minimize the risk of crises

we focus on job creation we focus on productivity we focus on stability stability actually will be my my my key focus is to build drunk economies so people fly 30 brought except far too often when they stayed places it's trust in the i.m.f. it ends up in scenes like these. people like look i sure scrooges i don't know the facts she doesn't suit the charts or sells. the last pictures we showed you are from ecuador a country that proves that the i.m.f.

does business the same way on both sides of the atlantic at the expense of the people the ecuadorian administration reached a 4 point $2000000000.00 deal with the fund in exchange for a forms abiding by its trusted playbook the i.m.f. marketed it in a non surprise fashion achieving their own last fiscal position is at the core of the authorities programme which will be supported by a 3 year extended arrangement from the i.m.f. well i've already kind of spoiled to you how this has turned out so far in turmoil in the streets and the state of emergency the authorities have voluntarily renounced their right to choose they must follow through with the tax reform stripped their citizens of some labor protections and cause fuel prices to double measures wildly unpopular among the people well but these are the commandments of the sect of a stereotype and like we. any cult it's easy to get in not to get out in 2002

the president of malawi a nation in africa said that the i.m.f. had forced them to sell the country's strategic grain reserves they did and as a result millions of people were exposed to famine when the drought hit something the i.m.f. outright refused to accept any responsibility for the causes of food shortages in malawi are complex including lapses in the government's early warning systems distortions in domestic markets and mismanagement of food reserves in more recent cases the i am of bailout programs for italy greece ireland and portugal ignited europe wide and to your story to movement just when people realized that in reality the money comes not from the i.m.f. but from their wallet forms that came until with the funds billions because the i.m.f. is a robin hood who got it all wrong and now gives to the rich and takes from the poor

then the i.m.f. is given a credit to our country is under certain conditions but on the. day they control the economy. they're going to go on which is about the goal of the i.m.f. what they are really following this trade to open the economy of whether just to make the. ecuadorian people in the future but not get access to a different kind of private services that they big they've got but the thing is was the cost of this going off the rest of ration of the economy anything they're doing that we know they're going to increase inflation we know they don't increase unemployment rate at the moment but in theory yes in theory because the of the future going to be an economy similar like the u.s. economy or mexican economy let's say but obviously with that with our high like i say with the cost of mystery and that's going to be in. north korea's top nuclear negotiator said the talks with the u.s. have broken down just hours after the. started in stockholm. we are disappointed

that the united states has not put anything on the negotiating table now the responsibility for the continuation of the talks lies with the u.s. it was the 1st meeting between delegations from the 2 countries. met in the dead militarized zone between the 2 koreas ahead of this weekend's talks u.s. secretary of state mike pump aoe said there was still a lot of work to be done to build trust on improved relations country to north korea's statement that washington has claimed the latest the scotians were not a failure of the law to come up with a number of quote creative. well meaning was ill fated or right from the off the day it was annoyance north korea said it had tested a submarine launch nuclear capable miso the pentagon then fired its own intercontinental ballistic missile in response political analyst under-vote czech told me he didn't expect the latest the scotians to be successful or fruitful given the united states decision. pictionary what the expects and the only is

expected this a political sanctions against against. it's very reasonable it should demand to consume living that the world never attacked anybody are definitely doesn't pose much to do to anybody in the region. or always the road a lifting of the sanctions more to america is not willing to united states is not willing to do it even on the go she owned this board so i don't. understand the war except for the be our boy these meetings negotiations take place because at this obvious ones that are now that they were in the. display and if you look at the us negotiation community well since so they're all going to buy our all if basically the only country of the world that never achieved anything it will be

china or any other conduit it doesn't seem to the u.s. is willing to make critical of my sis if only partner or enemy. billionaires should not exist and of all the people nodding in agreement with that statement from us presidential hopeful bernie sanders is a mega rich facebook founder mark zuckerberg and there's also sees that wealth inequality is out of control now despite the surprising admission from circuit berg the world's 5th richest person not all of the super rich are on board and willing to give up their lotteries some are even suggesting their parts on 0 pressed minority years artie's killam up. billionaires pretty much are all the united states the president himself is a billionaire but apparently he is the most threatened and bullied man in the country he has turned american diplomacy into a cheap extortion racket let's be honest donald trump is

a loser count all his failed 'd businesses are long term care is about exactly one person and that one person is named donald trump i'm sorry. that you're a terrible president. well perhaps but the bullying of donald trump has very little to do with him being a billionaire billionaires almost live in a parallel universe with elite parties private jets and little islands that they own but apparently some billionaires feel like they are persecuted minority it's the ordinary people that are persecuting them led by a boogie man named bernie sanders. billionaires billionaire billionaire billionaire billionaire killian as billionaire i am not a billionaire due to all that class hatred incited by bernie sanders the rich are forced to hide in fancy restaurants and the studio of the fox news channel so longer say for them to roam the streets with commoners let's go back to bernie sanders for a minute when we're having

a standard here what the hell has he done it's aspirational i didn't start with anything. penalize everyone that's done well now steve schwarzman the founder of blackstone says that the treatment of billionaires in the united states is starting to resemble the treatment of the jews in nazi germany seriously he actually said this it's the wall it's like when hitler invaded poland in 1939 and he's not the only one it's a rising trend if you go back to 1933 we've different words this is what hitler was saying in germany you don't survive as a society if you encourage and thrive on and view it genesee the wealthy t.v. preacher kenneth copeland has also reported suffering at the hands of the not so wealthy or abused fire lines you can't manage that today right this don't feel old world right get in an air get in alone too with a bunch of demons so the gap between the rich and poor in america has reached its

peak in half a century so do you think that billionaires are really an oppressed minority we decided to ask new yorkers what they think that's a joke right oppressed. not. malcolm we approached minority we're living in a world anyway i don't think they should be hated they didn't get that way well most people did a really successful got that way because they work if they have enough money so they can protect themselves don't believe in demonizing the successful i mean their majority of them have created a product or service nessie result of. the good work that they've done this is their success so i don't demonize him for being successful now this notion that the rich are somehow mistreated by society is certainly not new the cold war novelist and philosopher i know rand wrote an entire book called atlas shrugged it was about how the rich of the world go on strike against the ungrateful rabble who levy taxes against them but average americans just don't buy the argument seems that when the ultra rich claim the world has been unfair to them they don't really know what fair

means kaleb up and r.t. new york. the impeachment inquiry into double trouble over his phone call with the leader of ukraine has seen white house officials subpoenaed over the u.s. president's contacts with key of the democrats spearheading the probe say mr trump has left them with no other choice as for u.s. military aid which plays an important role in the scandal of the u.s. state department this week approved the sale of nearly $40000000.00 worth of antitank weapons to kiev the one $150.00 javelin missile that's come on top of the $200.00 sold to the country last year our senior correspondent but i guess dia takes a look at how ukraine has turned into a gold mine for the u.s. . but put aside you wouldn't take ukraine for a land of opportunity unless you're into peddling weapons the javelin system will help ukraine build its long term defense capacity to defend its sober

instance oratorial integrity in order to meet its national defense requirements now ain't that just the american dream selling weapons to a nation that can bear. any of food is to keep itself warm in the winter and not just any weapons the javelin by far the most expensive and its class more than $200000.00 for the launcher and a rocket was an easy though it took a concentrated push by arms manufacturers lobbyists and politicians to overturn a ban on lethal weapon sales to ukraine and this man this man was at the center of it the significance of this is that we lifted the bombing your arms did provide anti-tank weapons. and now we're prepared to treat you crazy like any other normal country which is this just look at his face doesn't it radiate honesty

and empathy but appearances can be deceptive kurt was nor could had a little side gig going on that was all hush hush the sod from representing trump in ukraine he also worked for. a huge and powerful lobbying group which surprise lobbies for a theatre the company that manufactures javelin missiles and will make millions by selling them to ukraine cut unfortunately resigned in september inside from the hold potentially corrupt thing with b g r and great he was also embroiled in the trump ukraine scandal speaking of which trump has recently put on hold almost $400000000.00 in military aid to ukraine it leaves out. a scheme to use the leverage of the presidency you'd use the leverage of the. vital military assistance to

a foreign nation. to provide or tame dirt on a political opponent it's hard to imagine a more serious. of allegations than those contained in the complaint surely they can't all be rotten this is adam adam has a much friendlier face than kurt adams seems genuinely concerned about ukraine alas adam doesn't seem to be any better see among adams sponsors is a fellow named igor pasternak who makes a lot of money on military contracts with ukraine is that pasternak recently hosted a fundraiser for adam after which the congressman began all but the mounding that the u.s. send money and arms to ukraine which would allow his generous sponsor to rearm the tire ukrainian military and just lastly play year the m.

$16.00 project was conceived some time ago as ukrainian armed forces border guards and national guard we time switch to nato standards on a city you could probably film sin city 3 with characters based in these guys but even if you don't sell guns and don't get kickbacks or donations from mama's manufacturers you can still use ukraine here for example as ukraine's national and t. corruption bureau chief sit nick recorded bragging about how he helped hillary clinton during the 2016 election. not trump but hillary i help her who really belongs to the cohorts of politicians who comprise the huge money in the us both in the u.s. and in the entire world for runs that is sort of better oh you could definitely film sensitive 3 with these guys but the audio is real confirmed by ukraine's

attorney general it was mr sidney by the way who published dirt on trump's campaign manager in 2016 in a real lost anyway but the fellow tried so. what if you don't have guns to sell or elections to win what if for example daddy wants to get his young boy a nice cushy job where he didn't have to do much well ukraine's the help booth john biden's son and john kerry's stepson landed executive jobs that are ukrainian energy companies now strap yourself in hunter biden earned $50000.00 a month 50000 in a country where the average wage is a few 100 dollars and you know what in the weird and wacky world of us politicians and i think it gave you a taste of just how wacky it is that's normal the underlying problem here was of course hunger by receiving 50 $1000.00

a month from ukraine energy company do you think that that is evidence of corrupt behavior no people are set on. monetary payments it was always a playground for america ukraine in 2013 victoria nuland boasted about the billions america spent supporting democracy in ukraine or meddling in its politics you pick since ukraine's independence in 1901 the united states has supported ukrainians as they do democratic skills and institutions as they promote civic participation and good governance of which are preconditions for ukraine to achieve its here p n aspirations we've invested over 5000000000 dollars to assist ukraine in these in articles that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic train well thank you mr nuland didn't ukraine turn out great but then again look at it like an american

senator you don't care that ukrainians are poor cold stressed and hopeless what you care about is that your sponsors can make money and keep do need. what you care about is ukrainians helping you in elections what you care about is ukraine providing your kids with comfy little jobs that pay millions over the years and if you are an american senator well ukraine couldn't have turned out any better. turkey's president erdogan has said his country is preparing to launch a military operation in north eastern syria to drive kurdish forces from the border region put out singles we have given all kinds of warnings regarding the east to the you freeze to the relevant parties we have acted with ample patience we have made our preparations we have completed our operation plans we have given the

necessary orders but will conduct this from the ground and from the year the us by a kurdish forces known as the s t f have ready to wage an all out war if turkey launches the operation turkey considers the s.p.f. to be a terrorist group by the said washington has taken too long to act in moving from a way that from the border over to nato allies agreed to create a so-called safe zone in august but turkey wants to expand it so that it begins 30 kilometers from its border political analyst give us his thoughts on what an incursion into north eastern syria would mean for the region's power dynamics. there was this article the a couple of days ago in the wall street journal where american officials were quoted that should turkey begin such an offensive the american forces will have no option but to withdraw from syria now what does that mean and really we couldn't

that certain it may mean. basically an invitation for turkey to come in you know you can come in into this area and we will move out but if that is the case then why are the americans providing the kurdish fighters over there with lots of weaponry in the last week i think there was like 300 trucks and so on it may be to drag turkey into some sort of a quagmire where the americans wouldn't have direct support to the kurdish obviously nato forces nato blue and blue that's not going to happen intentionally but at the end of the day there is nothing preventing the kurds from defeating either the turkish army proper incursion or should turkey uses proxies like it did in other areas in syria in the euphrates shields and so on to make it last longer and basically put america visibly turkey in a different because he had in place. more great programs get their start in moments

here in order to international stay close for show and he's here in just over 30 minutes with all of the latest updates. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy foundation let it be an arms race is on all sides very dramatic development the only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. in 2040 you know bloody revolution here to correct the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it just the lawyer i mean you are liz put video and put

him in the. school and you go to the former ukrainian president recalls the events of 2014. those who took part in this today over 5000000000 dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics small business i'm show business i'll see you then. people. all over.
