i mean you get to shape out these days you can stick out to it and engage with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. iran joins the chorus of condemnation of turkey readies for a military offensive against kurdish forces in northeastern syria reports suggest ankara has already targeted s.c.f. positions in the region also ahead. it's revealed that senior u.k. doctors were aware of the blood donated in the us and given to british patients of patients in the seventy's and eighty's that could have been afraid to debate hiv and hepatitis we hear from the son of one transfusion victim. the department powerful in the opening hearings of this inquiry said there's been our best lack of

come into the worst economy yet they still will not accept legal liability. american basketball faces a backlash from one of its biggest audience there's an sources of cash there's anger in china over a tweet in support of protesters in hong kong plus. put all reels from violent clashes over cuts to fuel subsidies and i see spanish channel correspondent is caught in the middle of protests. over welcome to your washing r.c. international with me carrying. our developing story of wrong now warning turkey

against a military operation in northeastern styria calling for ankara to respect syria's sovereignty to run joins a chorus of concern voices which also includes european officials on monday video emerged apparently showing american military vehicles leaving 2 of its outposts and so recently washington had around 150 military personnel stationed there kurds in the region are furious with some leaders saying they will curse the u.s. as traitors he is just a taste of what they think about trying to decision. will serve as a human shield of necessary it will not allow in their aggression against this region when we defeated are still terrorists you called yourself allies and what i would say no the coalition is letting us down we're hearing constant threats coming from turkey in complete silence on the part of the world now why do you have been

displaced and suffered a lot at 10 abiud and have until recently been relatively safe knowing some agree object only intimidations and the heart of token it's an acceptable is a way to keep keeps threatening us. so he has reportedly already conducted a tell every strikes in northeast in syria according to local media and comes hours off the washington announced it was pulling its troops out of the area and chris also being deploying military hardware along its border with syria we found out a human rights lawyer and middle east expert for their thoughts on washington's withdrawal from northern syria. we have to remember that in the 99 days turkey with the substantial u.s. military support by the way really carried out genocide against her but kurdish population killing about 3000000 kurds so we know about turkey's tippet the towards the kurdish people and one has to be very concerned. replay of that

in northern syria i'm sure turkey is trying everything you can not to help it happen because obviously if it incurred the military which the united states that would be devastated but you know mistakes happen and that is a risk of what's happening here so the u.s. is a horribly unreliable for for the kurds it has no friends only interests and the u.s. which is size all the time opposes al qaida that supports the right you see this over and over i think the turkish adventure. in syria is going to create another bloody conflict in the middle east eroded the middle east is blowing up is on the verge again or i think they're both going to vote again or is going to erupt very soon the us they have really betrayed the kurds

this term but the question is now how can we limit the damage. the war the bloody war that is going to cost thousands of lives. and regards who we're on the side as well as on the turkish side. takings responded to trump's throughout saying it won't bow to u.s. economic pressure and at home donald trump found himself in hot water with both democrats and republicans launching scathing attacks on him over his latest decision on theory or scale of more pink reports. 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 still point nobody else would defy the poor bend and good luck

getting any help america in the future will radical islam al qaeda and the kurds who are now while we're at the start because they have nobody to count on cause we abandon them so this is the people we improve on in a start of when prices the president's decision to withdraw u.s. forces from northern syria is a deeply disturbing development that betrays elyse who have been instrumental partners you know mission to eradicate isis we must always have the backs of our allies if we expect them to have our back the kurds were instrumental in our 6. yes we'll 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 flip flop just like you know his does honestly i don't think you should be there. somebody is going to suffer we stay there they suffer we leave they suffer snow we have arisen. we've helped them as much as a republican and at 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. senior doctors in the u.k. were aware that donated blood from the united states in the 19 seventies and eighties could have been infected with hiv or hepatitis it was revealed when the minutes of meetings of high level doctors back then were obtained by several british media outlets now we talked to the founder of a victim support group said his family's story my father was born with hemophilia which is a manageable bleeding disorder and he like thousands of others was

given this. medication he himself was infected with both hepatitis c. and hate charlie b. . 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 into research into it but i 1st asked for these documents from the guardian births in n.h.s. trusts 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 that the 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 and 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 there in 2017 jason evans initiated a public inquiry into the case he claims key files are still missing the latest u.k. government statistics say 30000 people were infected with hiv and hepatitis through donated blood from the us in the seventy's and eighty's it led to hundreds of early deaths and the exact figure is still not clear the british government describes the scandal as a tragedy that should never have happened the health department also say it is committed to being open and transparent with the inquiry but jason evans doubts

that there will be any realistic it's when 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 but the important point here is the department of 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 what they're saying and i think it's time for that to change families and victims have been seeking justice for decades r.t. has a feature length report on the case you can launch bad blood online at r.t.

dot com. ecuador has shut down 3 all fail it's because of on going protests tension has been building since the government moved to scrap feel subsidies which has resulted in feel and in price hikes for goods. one thing. in the latest wave of protests stone throwing demonstrators clashed with police who responded with tear gas and rubber bullets were being around $500.00 arrests since the latest trouble began president bill when i was declared a 2 month state of emergency in the plains ecuador's former leader i was the head of latin american labor venezuela for his country's problems. with a tyrant who has acted along with career the destabilization. there the corruption if i told the food stamps and just disclose and known to make. sure they're the

ones behind this attempt to do who did it harper this double standard or former ecuadorian president rafael correa has refuted the accusation against him saying it has no one to blame but himself. i'm going to be broke and that's what it's a difficult time for my home and the show's 3 politics of merino in his government he's already been in power for 2 and a half years and he still blames korea for everything economic crisis for security for his political faults and to say that these mass protests of my fault is just crazy it's. nothing that is going to marino is not interested in democracy for him the most important thing is to control power control the ecuadorian public so he create projects that can damage the majority would be beneficial for his goals. as a result of the i paid all the ecuadorian government has announced it is temporarily relocating from the capital to the city of joy a queer little 400 kilometers away a correspondent from artie's spanish charles has seen firsthand how quickly some of

the protests have escalated. the air is still heavy here we have tear gas and smoke this is the aftermath of what is just happen here massive clashes between protesters and the ecuadorian police the protesters mainly students they started peacefully in the early hours of the morning but around midday and in a split 2nd they turned violent. that was really. our tame 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 bulls with 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. a major u.s. basketball team is paying the price fans after his manager waited on twitter every hong kong protests will tell you why among other stories of the play. the way that nations try to recreate a gold standard is imposing tariffs on each other to even things out and they creates an enormous bureaucracy and it creates an enormous date 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 our money could go into actually productive parts of the real economy supporting real jobs with real wages and real g.d.p. growth. the world is driven by shaped by one person those with. the deer's thinks. we dare to ask.

welcome back hong kong leaders things is too wordy to say whether beyond it's not effective carillon i think that it takes time for new legislation to get the desired result it was imposed during a long weekend of violence in the city the stretched into monday night. it was. it was. meantime a tweet from the manager of a u.s. basketball team has sparked an uproar in china he expressed his support for the anti-government protests in hong kong the head of the national basketball association defended the tweet on the houston rockets as managers freedom to

express political opinions but is a costly move though as is seen major chinese sponsors cut ties with the team and the n.b.a. chinese state broadcaster c.c.t.v. has pulled n.b.a. games from the shed jewels this week major sportswear brands in china also suspending cooperation with the team the original tweet has been deleted but 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. 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 daryl morey 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 inconsiderate of the perspectives i have always appreciated the significant 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 has an only landed morry in hot water one of my key issue designers recently made a post supporting hong kong protesters on instagram the company received intense backlash. in china where they eventually pulled the designer shoes off the market the marriott 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 up 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 believing that the fruit is difference not just me going to the way i was or was it would be a pretty sure conversation but. i guess it is the organization is the team i guess we know who is leading in this trade war. that lead to a france is national run a party is calling for an immigration free is claiming the french ship is sinking. but you don't have undergone the my garments headlong aggression 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 a 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 taxes are you not here disputable in 2018 france registered 123000 asylum applications. the french prime minister we heard from there also says they could be

soon be quotas on the number of new arrivals president look for an early added weight to this claiming france it shouldn't be too attractive for immigrants. takes up the story. all around you can get a sense of the number of people who are living here this is salt in need 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 fear is 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. and 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 the 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 matter is getting tough on in what many see is an attempt to stop voters drifting to

parties such as mark penn's national rally and we are increasingly getting waves of migration faith traditions we must organize ourselves because france cannot welcome everyone. 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. use 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 figures and numbers rather than perhaps facing the human calamity that is so clear to see. the. bunch. as well. as up in. the drive so we are going to win this thing. mark words. which goes on. afghan and u.s. forces have reportedly killed

a top taliban commander in an air strike in the east of afghanistan it follows donald trump's withdrawal from peace talks with the militant group last week and a series of terror attacks have rocks 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 the attack with the taliban and islamic state active in the area last month a u.s. drone strike targeting islamic states led probably killed at least 30 civilians. but what are the interests were not with islamic states they went somewhere without any weapons and were killed and i can accept their body parts are innocent. oh and i did tell us that on the 2nd night the u.s. soldiers wants to do things and bought all of these my family members bring 2 of

them from my brothers and 5 from my contacts because that. was what my father went to harvest pine nuts but drawn skilled ham my little brother is crying for him all the time. up on the end of my co workers were killed and i was left injured there were over 200 people poll workers who could come to earn money i still knew the taliban or not the slum extent militants but the bomb goes. to the one i did but it goes i do not want the americans here in afghanistan they should leave there are liars the see they can see small things from the year so why couldn't they tail armed militants from workers. trying to just more into our government to bring us the peace we don't need and announced.

thanks for joining us here at r.t. international we're back at the top of the hour with the latest headlines. oh why a paradise with some all year round turned into a round the experimentation field for agricultural chemicals we know that these chemicals have consequences they are major irritants there's no question otherwise why would that the chemical company workers themselves be geared up that suited up locals attempt to combat the on regulated experiments but often in vain you have many of these people where one foot into the biotech pharma and the other foot in

the government regulatory bodies this kind of collusion is reprehensible while the battle goes on the chemicals continue to poison hawaii and its people so one has to ask the question whether there is a form of environmental. race that's going on in hawaii whether these companies feel they can get away with this because the people have less political power. what politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. some people want to be. the 2 going to be pressed to see what the 43 in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the water using our. first sip.

hello there i'm max kaiser this is the kaiser report that show that goes there. hey max by the way you know it's just a week and a half from today that we will 'd be imposing tariffs big tariffs on european this is a bit of a shock in the past came out of the blue we were in these trade wars cold wars civil wars we had all these wars flying back and forth alone behold suddenly we start sanctioning well imposing tariffs on european goods and this is based on a w t o ruling that they decided that in fact air bus had provided $7500000000.00 worth of subsidies to air bus from the european union nations so we get to impose some

and of course child picks out all the nice foods if he doesn't apply you know he famously it likes things like hot dogs and hamburgers and burger king stuff and donald's and junk food so he's applied it to things like stilton cheese ingroup and stuff like that not bring. one. you know this is what happens when you take the gold standard away from the world economy the way that nations try to recreate a gold standard is by imposing tariffs on each other to even things out and it 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 a money could go into actually productive parts of the real economy supporting real jobs with real wages and real g.d.p. growth but we are.
