close one on the children's each other is good because the state of california alone makes $6000000000.00 a year of the prison complex just to get some 20 alive where. you don't care. one pir moscow time a run joins the chorus of condemnation is turkey ready for a massive offensive against the kurds in northeastern syria with reports suggesting already bombed the area and deployed military hardware at the border ahead to. it's revealed that senior u.k. doctors were aware that blood donated in the u.s. and given to british patients in the 1970 s. and eighty's could have been infected with a choice hepatitis coming up we hear from the son of a victim of tainted transfusion. the department of how the opening hearings of this

inquiry says spin out best lack of candor in a worst a cover up yet they still will not accept their legal liability for american basketball faces a backlash from one of its biggest audiences and sources a cash there's anger than in china over a tweet in support of protesters in hong kong plus. of course it. could all reals in violent clashes with cuts to fuel subsidies one of our correspondents from our spanish channel is caught right in the middle of it all . hello welcome to the program my name is kevin owen you're watching our international live from our world news h.q.

we have a half an hour we started with this story a developing one for you to update you on iran now warning turkey against a military operation in northeastern syria calling for ankara to respect syria's sovereignty to run joins a chorus of concerned voices which also includes european officials of this lunchtime to a reportedly already conducted air and artillery strikes in northeast and. syria according to local media it comes just hours after washington announced it was pulling its troops out of the area and cross also been deploying military hardware along its border with syria for monday this video emerged apparently showing american military vehicles leaving 2 of its outposts until recently worth bearing in mind washington had around a 150 military personnel stationed there kurds in the region are outraged by all this with some leaders saying they will curse the u.s. as traitors is just a taste of what they think about trump's decision that. we will serve as a human shield of nice story that we will not allow any aggression against this

region when we defeated are still terrorists as you called yourselves our allies and what we're seeing now as the coalition is letting us down and what we're hearing constant threats coming from turkey with complete silence on the part of the world now i have been displaced and suffered a lot that can i buy it and have until recently been relatively safe knowing that reject all intimidations and the heart of turkey and all that it's an acceptable is a way to keep keeps threatening us. peace activist done coverlid told us america's exit will leave civilians and kurdish fighters in a very vulnerable position now. we have to remember that in the 1990 s. turkey with the substantial u.s. military support by the way really carried out genocide against it for the kurdish population killing about 3000000 kurds so we know about turkey's tip of the towards the kurdish people and one has to be very concerned replay of that

in northern syria and sure turkey is trying everything you can not to help it happen because obviously if it incurred the military with the united states that would be devastating to put mistakes happen and that is the risk of what's happening here so the u.s. is a horribly unreliable for the kurds it has no friends only interests and the u.s. which is size all the time opposes al qaida and supports the right we see this so. we will try to pull troops out has come under fire at home too he apparently tried to mitigate that and being tough on turkey threatening to quote totally destroy the blitter right it's a commie should he do anything he can say this off limits and. it won't go to u.s. economic pressure. if turkey does anything out of what they should be doing we will

hit them so hard in the economy as you mention trying to find himself in hot water at home with both the democrats and republicans launching scathing attacks on him trump though stood by the move. we've been in syria for many years you know syria was supposed to be a short term hit just a very short term hit we were supposed to be in and out that was many many years ago and we only have 50 people in that area that's a small sector and i don't want those 50 people hurt or killed or anything i don't want anything bad to happen our people and i told that to president early on i said don't hurt any of any of our people get hurt big trouble standing in between the turkish an s.d.f. fighters was not a fight to win or a benefit for the united states why because they're both friends and allies of the usa so if you support one side you're inevitably betraying the other it's a perfect no win scenario and for his decision to abandon the kurds donald trump is already taking a hit so the current stepped up when nobody else would defy isis if we abandon him

good luck getting anybody to help america in the future will radical islam al-qaeda and i says the kurds will now live with us because they have nobody to count on cause we abandon them so this is a win for ron minister when prices the president's decision to withdraw all u.s. forces from northern syria is a deeply disturbing development that betrays allies who have been instrumental you know a mission to eradicate isis we must always have the backs of all and i say if we expect them to have our back the currents were instrumental in our successful fight against isis in syria leaving them to die is a big mistake losing the reputation as a reliable partner is the main concern after all nobody wants to partner up with a backstabber so we decided to ask new yorkers if they think that donald trump is taking the right moves should the usa have pulled out of syria so suddenly i do not

support anything donald trump supports he'll flip he'll flip flop just like you know honestly i don't think you should be there. somebody is going to suffer the stain. no they suffer believe me something else and no way i'm the reason. repub them as much as reports because some point they have to be able to stand on their own 2 feet syria you think it's too soon. probably i just think there's a lot of hypocrisy to. see here doctors in the u.k. were aware the donated blood from the united states in the 19th seventy's and eighty's could have been infected with hiv hepatitis it was exposed when the minutes of meetings of high level doctors back then were obtained for several u.k. media outlets now we talk to god called jason evans he's founder of the factor 8 independent him affiliate group who told us the story of his family my father was born with hemophilia which is a manageable bleeding disorder and he like thousands of others was

given this factor 8 medication he himself was infected with both hepatitis c. and hate cho v when i was 4 years old in 1903 he died of those infections and so that's kind of been the thing that spurred me in to beginning to campaign on this issue and to research into it when i 1st asked for these documents from the darby emberton n.h.s. trust many many months ago and initially the trust refused to provide me with the document in question so i had to go to the information commissioner's office who stepped in and the i.c.a.o. did promise them to eventually release the document to me however the 1st time their trust gave me the document i know is that 2 pages were missing from it so

then had to go back to the i.c.a.o. saying you know they've they've missed out 2 pages here and i did eventually get those 2 missing pages. i was told by the trust that that was due to an admin error if we choose to believe that's true and it was on those 2 pages that were originally missing the this revelation was in that. in 2017 jason evans initiated a public inquiry into the case he claims key files are still missing according to the latest report from the u.k. government 30000 people were infected with hiv and hepatitis by donated blood from the u.s. in the 1970 s. and eighty's that led to hundreds of early deaths while the exact figure is still not clear the u.k. government has expressed his condolences along the way to the victims and their families calling the case a tragedy that should never have happened it also says that authorities are open and ready to help with the inquiry but jason evans doubts they'll be any real

assistance from the government. i don't think the government the department of health of really move this forward at all in recent times the bizarre situation we're in now is of course victims and families say this is a scandal lawyers say it's a scandal civil servants i've spoken to say it's a scandal we've got 2 former health ministers to say it's a cover up the important point here is the department how the opening hearings of this inquiry said there's been at best a lack of candor and at worst a cover up yet they still will not accept their legal liability despite saying that so we're in a situation where they kind of make the right noises but the action just isn't there to back up what they're saying and i think it's time for that to change. families of victims have been seeking justice for decades. going to feature length

reports on the cases called bad blood you can check it out on our site r.t. dot com. hong kong focus next it's too early to say the empty mask law is not effective says hong kong chief executive carolan think that it usually takes time for new legislation to get the desired result this coming after a long weekend again of violence in the city that stretched into monday night. main time a tweet from a basketball executive in the united states in support of anti-government protests in hong kong a spark uproar in china the country state broadcaster c.c.t.v.

now announcing that it will not air the national basketball association games this week over it all the tweets it's been deleted bird not forgotten as donald quarter explains. activism is in nowadays and american big business is always trying to stay on top of the latest trend is that something might change. in sexual harassment but she says this is it isn't. so when the manager of the houston rockets basketball team posted stand with hong kong on twitter it was nothing out of the ordinary right or wrong his bosses

clearly didn't support his political viewpoint because the n.b.a. threw him right under the bus we recognize that the views expressed by houston rockets general manager general mori have deeply offended many of our friends and fans in china which is regrettable it wasn't long before more he himself had a change of heart i've had lots of junior since that tweet to his and consider other perspectives i have always appreciated the significance support of our chinese friends and sponsors i would hope that those who are upset will know the defending will miss understanding them was not my intention so why the 180 all of a sudden it could have something to do with a 1500000000 dollar contract signed not long ago by the n.b.a. and a major chinese tech company it's called 10 cent and it broadcasts basketball games in the hundreds of millions of chinese homes last year more people watch the n.b.a. in china than there are even people living in the united states with such

a huge consumer base china hasn't only landed morry in hot water one of nike's shoe designers recently made a post supporting hong kong protesters on instagram the company received intense backlash in china. they have pulled the designer shoes off the market but mary out made a similar mistake when it listed taiwan tibet and hong kong as separate countries on its website beijing shut that site down and the marry out issued an apology starting trouble with china and its elephant sized market might have become a dangerous business practice in the u.s. but the n.b.a. is brave enough to snub an invitation from the white house with trump entrenched in it i don't want to go. to the nucleus of my belief and think for is there for it's not just me going to the way it was this would be a pretty sure conversation. i guess is the organization is the team i guess we know

who's leading in this trade war. 3 oil fields because of ongoing protests in the country tensions been building since the government moved to scrap fuel subsidies which has resulted in price hikes for goods. thank. you thank you thank you protests stone throwing demonstrators clashed with police who responded with tear gas and rubber bullets thus far and 500 people have been arrested since the latest trouble began as for president let him run and he's declared a 2 month state of emergency he blames echoed all former leader and also the head of another south american country. for his country's problems right. the tyrant who has activated along with korea destabilization plan. they're the corrupt who have filed the food stamps and just disclose the name to make them they're the ones behind this attempted coup de tarp the. president run also said that the

government is currently relocating from quito to the city of a guy killed more than 400 kilometers south of the capital and r.t. correspondent from our spanish channel saw firsthand just how these protests quickly escalate. the area still heavy here we have tear gas and smoke this is the aftermath of what is just happened here massive clashes between protesters and the ecuadorian police the protesters mainly students they started peacefully in the early hours of the morning by around midday and in a split 2nd they turned violent. there was healing. our team was affected by sound bombs and tear gas and flying rocks were a constant threat after 3 hours of violent clashes between protesters and police the streets of quito looked more like who. was brought bottles and tear gas

cottages scattered everywhere so these definitely been violent and heavy protests but people we spoke to were telling us this is just the beginning. they waiting for the biggest protests to happen on wednesday that's when indigenous leaders from all around the country are going to come here to the capital and they're going to protest next to the presidential palace which some say minutes past the hour if you're watching the clock hoping to stay with us to become one of europe's migrant crisis the tragedy that just won't go away. you know world a big part of. law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig

deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the bad and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. who are all those driven by the dream shaped by our own personal there is. no day or thinks. we dare to ask.

again the leader the french national rally policy marie le pen has called for an immigration phrase claiming the french ship is sinking. but you don't have undergone the my garments headlong aggression by the rating and naturalizing around the clock shows that nothing is under control any longer urgently need to end this pillaging of our country which is happening in part due to lax immigration policy we are demanding a freeze on immigration because the friendship is sinking. you have chosen to make migrants the scapegoat for the country's problems the migrants rather than the financier who ponders our country for the tax evader you not hear disputable in 2018 france registered 123000 asylum applications. from minnesota heard from there also says there could be quotas on the number of new arrivals present mccraw meantime earlier added weight to it claiming france

shouldn't be too attractive for immigrants sure they do because got the story all around you can get a sense of the number of people who are living here this is soltanieh a commune in the northern suburb of paris and it's estimated that there are around 3000 migrants currently living in the northern parts of paris many are living in these makeshift tents that are provided by so they rely on food handouts just to survive that the stress of living on the edge can be explosive and entering camps can be dangerous even for those who are there to offer help now what we've done today is we've asked if we can come in and we've been given permission to film as long as we don't show any faces now some charitable organizations have also been raising the alarm over the situation here saying it evokes memories of the height of the crisis back in 2015

a cataclysmic situation even in 2015 at the height of the migrant crisis we never had such a big spike. and these are some of the fears that have been shared by locals the mayor is doing everything possible he's working on the situation but unfortunately at the governmental level it is taking too long. a lot of things are going on here there is fear i see a lot of things people are going mad and there is a lot of aggression i find this very sad our government accepted these people and left them on the streets and polls show a significant percentage of the french feel that there are too many foreigners in france it's half way through his presidency and it's already an issue that maclin is getting tough on in what many see is an attempt to stop voters drifting to parties such as marking the pens national rally. we are increasingly going to have to live with waves of migration faith traditions we must organize ourselves because

france cannot welcome everyone if it wants to host people. but the problem with illegal immigrants is not only a french problem it's something that the whole of the e.u. is trying to grapple with and while the countries are struggling to find a workable solution there are more warnings coming up we have to help our european partners even more in patrolling the use external borders we have left them alone for too long if we don't we will once again see a refugee wave like into into 15 maybe even greater than 4 years ago his solution to that is to strengthen patrols on the e.u.'s external borders but that's going to have little impact on the situation already at hand in places like this like some tinny camps like this have been regularly demolished by the french authorities within days of that happening the tents and the migrants return they've been

subjected to gangs and drug dealers out to profit from their misery and that's exactly what this is. this is a life of misery a life of constantly living on the edge all while e.u. countries wrangle over think is a numbers rather than perhaps facing the human calamity that is so clear to see. the. plunge and. go into. the mind of. a nonsmoker migrants' a war. which gaza and. 8 people have been injured in central germany after a stolen truck slammed into cars at traffic lights in the small town where one person remains in critical condition today after the incident monday the trucks

owner claims a man in his thirty's with a short dark hair and they full beard and quote forced him out of the vehicle before speeding away soon after it was slammed into cars waiting at a stoplight near a real way station in the town of limburg crushing them literally together while you can see the pictures for yourself local police of us not to speculate on a motive for the crash but media there are reporting that a suspect has been arrested and is of syrian origin are also reports that front for its attorney general is looking at the incident as an act of terror. afghan and u.s. forces have reportedly killed a top taliban commander in an air strike in eastern afghanistan it follows donald trump's withdrawal from peace talks with a militant group last month and a series of terror attacks in iraq the country in recent days at least 10 people were killed and 27 wounded when a bomb struck a minibus carrying army recruits in jalalabad on monday it's not clear who was behind that attack with both the taliban and islamic state active in the area and last month the u.s.

drone strike targeting islamic state in the province that at least 30 civilians. now what are the interests were not with islamic states they went to war without anybody and were killed when i can accept their body parts are going to start. the day after that on the 2nd night the us that also has launched a bruising and. all of these in my family members graves 2 of them from my brothers and 5 from my cousin the court of. law. my father went to harvest pine nuts but drawing skills my little brother is crying for him all the time. but i'm a native my coworkers were killed and i was left injured there were over 200 people

all workers who could come to earn money i saw neither the telly bought the car nor the slum extent militants but the bomb just. for that matter but it got blown up on one of the americans here in afghanistan or that they should leave because they are liars still they see they can see small things from the air so why couldn't they tail arm the militants from the workers the good men who just want our government to bring us peace with anthony's and announce. they'll come across just a click away we can follow all our stories and have your say as well here moscow that's the world is round up so far nicky's here and 30 for me kevin i would have a great choose day and stick around if you care to watch the whole works but after this break.

this. month. because. of this connection to last him should ask for the last company and seeing and some interest for the rights. commission she. branches just shoot on disk in the.

legion. no new car so sit on the open much to the mama just back. the way that makes us try to recreate a gold standard is by posing terrorists on each other to even things out and they creates an enormous bureaucracy and it creates an enormous need for banks to print . money and contracts and it creates a need for lawyers and it creates a need for all kinds of administrators which is great for them but it's a drain on the economy because of money could go into actually productive parts of the real economy supporting real jobs with real wages and real g.d.p. growth.

greetings and sell you taste. despite what the constitution declares the freedom of the press has had a topsy turvy sometimes even brutal history of abuse here in the united states of america while most of the time attacks on us journalism has been through very indirect or opaque means like the influence and lure of the almighty ratings dollar the or the herd click mentality of beltway ivy league journalists or even newsroom employees putting their climb up the corporate ladder before their journalistic integrity but every so often throughout our long history there is a very direct abuse of the press by members of the government institutions they are paid to report

a lot like the exchange that took place recently when defense one news editor ben watson tried to make his way through customs at washington dulles international airport the hill reports that watson was harassed and accused by u.s. customs and border protection agent of writing propaganda when he attempted to reenter the united states this week apparently as watson was going through customs after informing the officer of his occupation the officer held onto his passport repeatedly asked him over and over and over again so you write propaganda right this started of course a volley of well no i'm a journalist so you write propaganda write well no i'm a journalist so you write propaganda write until watson finally relented and said yes whereupon he was given back his passport and allowed to leave the airport finally as watson told the washington post with his tone and he's looking me in the eye very much realize this is not a joke i've honestly never had a human attempt to provoke me like this book.
