i. could. do. without a little tough love you know what. a little.

credit. cease. to have your company this is the weekly. 6 nights of protests over the jailing of separatist leaders they were sentenced by the supreme court in spain on monday and since then large crowds have been venting their anger on the streets of the council in comp.

well today the culture is in boston covering events for as they're getting to you again as i understand there's been plenty of violence in the vicinity over the last few nights of things any column of this evening. while people of course along are again taking it to the streets there protesting for the 7th day and narrowed down those have the gathered here they say that there are against what

they called the state's oppression and now at the moment they're acting rather peacefully and they have just as sung a song all together and it was rather impressive i know they some of them came with their families and some even brought children it is quite a peculiar thing about these protests that the whole story very out peacefully but for 2 days in a row what we see is that they turned violent at the very and later in the evening and that is happening every time a very suddenly now for example this crowd just about a half hour ago they were throwing a rubbish right at the police. forces which have a block the road but then they turned the lights on their phones all cement tenuous lee and put them up to the police helicopter flying above us just to show that these are peaceful but as i said before this whole can change rather quickly now

the head of counseling is calling for people to come forward for dialect that violence is not the path but actually there were so a many different radical allemands here among the crowd and now they are basically violently hijacking those protests and turning them into burning scenes this is exactly what we saw on friday here in the center of barcelona and again yesterday later in the evening when these radical movements basically hijacked the protest and built barricades and set them on fire and were acting very violent we nobody in the you know these people they hit the streets in vast numbers almost immediately after those separatist leaders were pretty heavy custodial sentences and we had a chance to speak to any of the protesters about what it is they're actually demanding. well before i'm going to answer this question of

yours just listen to the crowd now they're old singing and as i've mentioned before that was rather impressive again so this is what they're doing right now they're showing that they came here and that they are in tension are completely peaceful there is singing on together and then clapping and this is all happening right in front of the police forces now back to your question yes we talk to different people here both for and against the independence now some are demanding their democratic rights to be respected to the others believe that the ex-president of catalonia karla's put him on should come back and face the crisis in his homeland but all of them are. condemning the violence on the streets out the catch line in capital that we have been with this thing the past week. very lively scenes there and i must watch you want to get in medina because we have

seen lots of violet's things progressed into the police to be extremely careful we appreciate this story though we continue to bring it to our viewers medina culture there in barcelona. now in protests elsewhere in the world thousands of people have been marching in hong kong this is in defiance of the police ban and yet again violence erupted there to protest the smashing up shops the inside of metro stations as well and they started fires and the beijing rallies have been gripping the city for months with unrest the frequent feature of the authorities recently introduced an emergency law that banned facemasks china has denounced the protesters as being separatists and accuse foreign countries of meddling in the situation. in other news the president of the you council done to us because confirmed he has received a request from the u.k. for a briggs extension prime minister boris johnson was forced to send a letter that asked for more time after

a vote went against the government in the u.k. parliament but he refused to sign the document in total boris johnson assent in fact 3 letters to brussels the war he didn't side that asks for the brigs it extension there's a 2nd from the u.k. some bastard to the european union saying that the 1st letter from was from parliament not the government and then there's a 3rd letter this is from johnson himself where he describes any potential extension is being damaging and urging the you to help him to get the deal into force. it's complicated now doesn't that he will now discuss the situation with the leaders before deciding just how to act and it all comes after british m.p.'s have voted saturday for an amendment to delay their approval of boris johnson's e.u. divorce still a deal that was heavily criticised by the opposition you cannot trust a word that is size i misread your voting for a deal today won't and breaks it it once delivered certainty and the

people should have the final say the prime minister has returned from brussels to present a deal so he knows that we all know who she is actually worse. than means deal he knows that if given the option that people will reject his bad deal and choose to remain in the european yeah yeah what i heard was a man who said this country who wouldn't know people don't trust and he keeps a trust who will give who will trust the british people if we want the business people to trust what he agree with me we should have a referendum so people can judge this deal for what it is and then we can have a general election after that it. was underway in westminster there was a huge protest outside parliament against briggs it is that rally calling for

a 2nd referendum they claim hundreds of thousands were marching in london we quizzed analysts about where briggs it might be heading next. the problem is not brussels the problem is our own people in westminster who have deliberately set out to undermine the british government who deliberately set out to make sure the deal is as bad as possible and have deliberately set out but democracy i say shave off the steel is a bad deal but it's not a catastrophic deal a catastrophic deal is what you can never escape from and what you saw to resume a backstop you could never escape from whereas with boris johnson's deal whilst it's bad you can't escape from it i think does give future british governments the ability to a bad and our relationship with europe i think what will happen over the next week or 2 is that we will have a clearer view not of the divorce because i think of that it's fairly settled really but of the future relationship and i think that's going to be the real battle there are no doubt there will be attempts at amending the legislation going

through parliament to for example try and have a referendum to confirm the agreement so there'll be lots of shenanigans but i think that in the end this deal with slight amendments will be what the parliament will agree. the pentagon is claiming a cease fire between turkey and kurdish forces in syria and it's being quote broadly maintained that despite both sides accusing each other of violations anchor agreed thursday to suspend its military operation for 5 days after talks between the turkish leader and us vice president mike pence or that on trump was quick to take credit. sometimes you have a lot of fight. like 2 kids in a lot you gotta let them fight then your problem apart president there are no one was a gentleman he understood it but without a little tough love you know what tough love is really without

a little tough love they would have never made this deal turkey's going to be happy the kurds are going to be having isis is going to be unhappy. the 5 day window is to allow for the withdrawal of kurdish forces from a designated area on saturday at one found to quote continue to crush the heads of terrorists if the kurds don't leave turkey same has been to clear fighters from a so-called deep safe zone that stretches 30 kilometers into syria the kurdish political leaders said that they welcomed the pause in austerities but will not accept a turkish occupation and additionally there is disagreement over the wording of the deal between washington and ankara. today the united states and turkey have agreed to a cease fire in syria. this is not a cease fire a cease fire was established between 2 digits of my policies we are posing the operation for the terrorist to lead the safe so we can end the operation only after the terrorist elements be the area vice president spoke after a high level delegation of u.s.

officials met with the turkish president in turkey pen says that there will be a pause in military operations for 120 hours to allow the u.s. allied syrian kurds to withdraw and it was also agree that kurdish militias will lay down heavy weaponry if the terms of the deals are fulfilled turkey will finish its operation there in northern syria or that area will then be controlled by syria's army at the talks look as if it was a little tough just judging by the faces of the vice president and president airline before the meeting pretty somber and a little hostile but one week ago turkish forces crossed into syria leading to the president earlier this week to take decisive action and call on turkish forces to stand down to end this violence and agree to negotiations the u.s. had been slapping turkey with sanctions and threats trump even writing to air to one telling him not to be a fool on this one will trump promise to lift sanctions as soon as the turkish operation is over the president even called area one now

a friend the deal to me is reminiscent of the days of european colonialism before world war 2 when european powers would get together and they was conspired amongst themselves to divide out the sovereign territory of another country we have a similar situation here in syria where the usa is not an invited party in syria where turkey is not invited party into syria these these 2 countries are in syria illegally in violation of international law and the un charter will it work the answer is it might but my guess is that the. the s.d.f. will take this window of opportunity provided of 120 hours to move out of the way of the advancing turkish army once the s.t.'s leave the area the turkish army may decide that their military objectives have been made and the government may in fact withdraw the turkish army back to the turkish rentier in which case the syrian

government would start to reassert its sovereignty over that part of syria. he began its operation earlier this month after the u.s. withdrew its forces from the area we managed to get access to one of the bases abounded by washington and he saw some of the pictures from that he spoke to an advisor to president bashar al assad who told us that the incursion is an act of aggression against syria itself and you know it's really not done in courage and it isn't a good action it is a horrible and good action i gave the syrian sovereignty syrian. the syrian people and when they speak about this safe zone just imagine if any country would like to have this if go on inside another country and tell international community again this this invasion and i've begun lying about his

objectives and about this this is and that about what he wants a. 1000000000 dollar deal signs and gifts exchanged this president putin visited saudi arabia in the back about high profile meeting to discredit. what holds us institutions to. put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and you. want to be that's. what you're going to be this is what the for reasonable people. i'm interested always in the why. do you think they should.

so what we've got to do is i don't. by the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic to follow only. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. to sit down and talk. since being in the saudi capital riyadh this week on his 1st visit to the gulf state for more than a decade the president talks with king solomon and the crown prince and they signed

a long list of deals 20 agreements in fact with over $2000000000.00 was signed in sectors including aerospace culture and advanced technology there are also some gifts handed out the russian leader presenting his hosts with a rare. and receiving a painting and. breaks down the current state of relations between the 2 countries . saudi arabia and russia is a remarkable example of how 2 countries could be great partners or friends and foes at the same time everything that riyadh gets itself involved in and the middle east

be it about iran yemen or syria gets full support from washington and you do realize that in all these cases russia is on the different side. the barricade. but when the russian leader and the saudi crown prince get along so well in person by the way they are the authors of probably the most famous high profile high 5 in the world the chances that the dialogue could work will always be very high. my natural time is between saudi arabia and russia have a pretty good student community in areas we consider russia to be friend. bilateral ties were established of

a 90 years ago in 1926 the soviet union was the 1st foreign country to recognize the young kingdom we value efforts to boost our ties surely we do have to bear in mind that the 2 countries are the world's largest oil producers are they competitors you know in this case opec plus partners so all kinds of oil and gas and issues related to the energy sector are on the agenda especially after the drone attack from last month on one of saudi arabia's most important oil refineries which could the country's output by almost a half and almost put the region on the brink of a real crisis. yemen's

who the rebels said we did it washington allies almost immediately blamed it all on to. ron it was feared that a u.s. led strike on iran could have been imminent the incident even led to vladimir putin suggesting that saudi arabia whose army is almost totally dependent on arms imports from the u.s. should buy russian made air defense missile systems it's another chance for mr putin to sell those but even without $2000000000.00 worth of contracts are signed between moscow and riyadh. a lawyer representing donald trump's reelection campaign sent a letter to c.n.n. warning of their intention to sue the network this is over allegations of bias against the president the c.n.n. spokesperson called it quote a desperate p.r.

stunt comes after an exposé on the channel by a c.n.n. whistleblower the material was obtained by project veritas in america nonprofit watchdog it includes secret recordings editorial meetings which reportedly reveal a crusade against donald trump bias within the outlet at the very highest levels. when i came to work at c.n.n. i mean it was my dream job and that dream actually just turned into a nightmare i decided to wear hidden camera to secretly record the 9 am rundown hall meetings and it's basically run by jeff zucker the president of c.n.n. and c.n.n. was just pumping out propaganda it's basically me wanting. the news to be what they used to be news and not a. pain when our a game show or chasing the ratings i like c.n.n. purports it to be facts 1st and that's clearly not the case.

takes a look at the clips. hate is a hell of a thing it brings out the absolute worst in all of us none of us is immune to it from little timmy at the kindergarden who's livid that bobby played with his favorite toy the jeff zucker the president of c.n.n. . all that against. number one is on every day just hammering trump in some way shape or form or republicans in

general the only thing that varies is how much power you have little timmy for example might call bobby a rude word mr zucker on the other hand might subvert the global news corp betray all impartiality the ideals of journalism and misinformed millions all because of a petty grudge that's how powerful hate ease. these revelations board was courtesy of project veritas a conservative activist group and this is just part one that's after a c.n.n. employee a technician at their washington d.c. bureau spent months wearing a hidden camera work spilling the beans so to speak and providing recordings of course of the stations at that news network kerry added dream to work in journalism

at c.n.n. the spread news and then you found out how naive he was how things really work at c.n.n. it is one and 2 on whether i'm like hey if we if we have to cool let's just say we left if we lean right. let it be known but again it just tells back nothing i just want people to have the information of make up their own minds now which if you didn't see the hints about what was going on i mean is there any surprise that these revelations have you watched c.n.n. rode it to impeachment the impeachment of president trump a formal vote to open an impeachment probe revelations i should say in the impeachment inquiry the beginning of a new phase in this entire impeachment course it takes 2 to tango and 2 to feud just like little timmy and little baldly there is and trump can you give us a question. you know if you get what i mean i get to give you

a question you speak out if you are shaking do attacking our network i just want to ask you sir i'm changing from fake news though doesn't that under very fake i know but aren't you. know this doesn't mean everyone at c.n.n. is a propagandist there are plenty says kerry who want to stick to journalism not opinion who want to show off the bat being dragged into zach because you it's a lot. here. it's like it's too. late. to. be everything. all the time know every one of the major everyone in the know. he. carries 1st stream didn't pan out but he hasn't given up hope he's optimistic that what he did will help set things right the resurrect

journalism. thing with us here on r.t. this evening i'll be back with updates for you in just over half an hour. this is a sticker from the water bottle phone in the stomach of a fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers there are the bad ones there the litter bugs are throwing this away industry should be blamed for all this waste to company has long promised to reuse the plastic. that's. the new phones at a special projects funded. on the new best. but for now

the mountains of waste only grow higher. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation whole community. are you going the right way or are you being. direct. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. aura maybe in the shallows.

hello and welcome to the party we got what we wanted that's how the turkish foreign minister characterized the surprise deal with the americans. syria in return for the promise of the kurdish and the suspension of the sanctions but the trump administration to leave any of that to discuss that i'm now joined by marwan a syrian writer and the director of policy analysis at the arab center for research and policy mistake kaplan it's good to talk to you thank you very much for being

here thank you very much thank you for having me now everybody is now talking about the grim and it's been the turks and the americans as the deal president himself referred to it as something having civilizational significance isn't that a bit of an oversell for what at least for now is essentially a pledge to hold fire for 5 days. i think i think both the turks and americans must be. having this deal in my opinion because on the one hand it gives what it really wanted from the very beginning and that is to. see the democratic forces. from the border along the 140. borders between the. borders but i mean this deal was reached mainly because the

american delegation came with a stick on one hand and the card on the other hand you know the u.s. congress actually has introduced 3 different bills of sanctions against the senate . the house of representative and it's very very tough sanctions in fact not only against the economy but also against the fish that. to me on the other hand they came actually with this would discover it which is actually to put pressure on the senior democratic forces in order to pull out from that the article meant is. that it is a deep inside syria but mr kemp on that i'm sure you would agree with me that it's one thing to make a promise and and the other thing is to deliver on it and throughout the syrian conflict the turks and i'm specifically talking about are the on made at least 3 deals with the americans which required substantial commitments from ankara only to see the americans change their minds later on.
