leader one kwaito earlier storms the country's embassy in brasilia from where maria from ocean are now reports. i imagine as well embassy here in the city of brasilia in dayton i can tell you that the situation here on the ground is quite boring just a while ago there was a fight between the supporters of and as well as legitimate president nicolas maduro and those who own the site of the country's self-proclaimed leader who won why don't and before that some of he's supposed to manage to storm the building and get inside and right now we are receiving contradictory reports on who is in fact in charge of the embassy right now and the most interesting and important thing is that the local police although there are many officers here on the ground clued in military police special forces but basically they have no alternative theory because officially we're still recognizes mr quite door as been as well as legitimate leader and therefore supports key supporters here and this is by the way
2:03 pm
the biggest challenges for brics countries and a big division for us for them as their position is on what's going on in caracas differ so much. brazil has just issued a note recognizing one why do as venezuelan president. abuse it was asian leader mr goh i don't came to a square racey's eyes to heaven with an appealing to go declared himself the president ok the goal didn't tell us his response to that appeal so therefore i think we need to come back to and be guided by democratic procedures and really trying to firmly opposed the principle of noninterference in the eternal affairs of other countries and maintains that the affairs of venezuela must be chosen and decided by its people the brazilian president mr ball sonora police said on his facebook page that he does not support the storm of the embassy here and he hopes that the situation on the ground will get back to normal so we make spec that this weekend will be hailed soon but the thing is that because all is not the all you
2:04 pm
want to believe in their resignation of elected president there is seen by some. breeks member states has a fish shola due to most democratic given process while others including russia say this is simply quit tom so these topics hot topics expected to be discussed by others on brinks later today we'll keep you updated of course but all in all i have to say that made me that despite all those disagreements between brazil russia china india and south africa all in all the influence of this issue is international group is for the growth and it is becoming even more at a time when we notice the decline in hoff so many ah there are international groups of such kind take for example apec its recent summit was cancelled last minute due to situation in chile understandably but we do not hear any information about new day old location set up no one is talking about that right now. as young leaders
2:05 pm
instead of going to the meetings prefer to send their foreign minister is an even g 7 last time was not able to agree on anything and issue a joint communique so in this situation some say that brinks is rising and growing and probably we mean quest for a bigger role in global decision making. fares of big brother watching your every move confined to works of fiction but our privacy concerns are being raised again with a federal inquiry opened in the u.s. over google's latest efforts to collect and share data the tech giant says it's been harvesting personal information on the health of millions of americans and sending it to a medical care provider has the world court. it wasn't too long ago that a person who thought he was being watched all the time might have been written off
2:06 pm
as a bit delusional but nowadays he'd be living in reality take google it's been secretly working with one of the world's largest health care non-profits to gather tens of millions of americans medical records the newly revealed initiative is called 'd project nightingale and google claims there's no fell play to be clear under this arrangement ascensions data cannot be used any other purpose than for providing the services refer in under the agreement and patient data cannot and will not be combined with any google consumer data google says the project is just helping health care organizations improve the experience they provide but the company's going about its business without any of these people's consent what's even more unsettling is that it's completely legal a lot of galatians and laws would need refreshing if you like to call it refreshing because of amount of data collected in different ways we are surrounded by more and
2:07 pm
more devices every day so a lot flows in the thick relations needs to be revisited when it comes to companies snooping around their users information google is far from the only one i phone users don't know their app activity is being sent to advertisers by default that doesn't exactly seem to correspond with apple's slogan. you can of course opt out but apple says you'll see the same amount of ads and they just won't be as interesting but what about cambridge analytic 50000000 facebook profiles had their information harvested by means of a seemingly harmless app with special permission from facebook they had. apps on facebook that were given special permission to harvest data not from
2:08 pm
just the person who used the opportunity to the art but also it would then go into their entire friend network and pull out all of the friend's data as well and that's just the tip of the iceberg right now thousands of apps are accessing the data of millions of facebook profiles instagram is using people's personal information for basically anything it wants the list goes on and on maybe those crazy people were right after all. take us president is right now meeting with donald trump at the white house it's his 1st official visit to washington since 2070 when relations between the 2 countries are at a historic low prior to the talks which yet tayyip erdogan and expressed hope they'll be able to overcome some of their differences. despite the forgiveness for you know relations we agree with trauma the problems will be resolved and our relations improved. well there are a number of factors behind the unprecedented strain on relations between the u.s.
2:09 pm
and turkey right now and among them offensive against washington's kurdish allies in northeastern syria well american lawmakers have also called for signing sions against the nato ally of the turkish decision to purchase the f. $400.00 missile system from russia is our correspondent. the president of turkey and the united states now to call this meeting highly anticipated would be an understatement especially as the 2 countries are going through a rocky patch syria the kurds relations with russia the arms trade you name it. when the united states began supporting the kurdish fighters against i still that was a turning point the usa has long maintained that it can be friends with both turkey and the kurdish forces that on current considers to be terrorists and turkey as you know is a nato ally particularly important nato ally turkey just give me your surance that
2:10 pm
you're not going to be bullied by turkey you're president you know to want to throw in the syrian kurds under the bus. and there's no administration tension to any large yellow objects whatsoever thank you now it's always been a tough choice and the latest blow came last month when trump unexpectedly pulled us forces out of northern syria at that point turkey launched a deadly offensive against the kurdish militias in the area the condemnation and threats from washington only adding fuel to the fire turkey put us all in a very terrible situation turkey with regard the alliance is heading in the wrong direction i've got sanctions against turkey that i will introduce next tuesday these are sanctions from hill we need swift and bipartisan action to repair the damage caused by the decision to allow turkey to attack our chief partner in the fight against isis terrorists it seems now the countries have agreed to a permanent cease fire in syria but let's be honest it's still
2:11 pm
a highly volatile situation. and there's a major side plot here turkey is in the process of buying the russian made s. $400.00 anti aircraft missile system instead of the u.s. patriot system and no surprise washington is up in arms turkey's purchase of the s $400.00 is inconsistent with its commitments to nato and will have a detrimental impact on turkish in iran for ability with the alliance the united states has actually threatened to sanction turkey and remove them from the f. $35.00 fighter jet program of which and carr is a member. and the problems don't end there u.s. senators have called out trump for his turkish policy and called on him to cancel the meeting with president marihuana president decision to invade northern syria as a disastrous consequences for u.s. national security has led to deep divisions in the nato alliance and caused
2:12 pm
a humanitarian crisis on the ground given the situation we believe now is a particularly inappropriate time for president obama to visit the united states and we urge you to rescind this invitation quite a lead up to a crucial meeting now with all these problems to solve the 2 countries are remaining optimistic and trump and there are one are playing up the idea and the fact that they are still friends but whether the meeting is a success or failure a vital follow up is already on the calendar a phone call has been scheduled between turkish president iran and russian president vladimir putin they will blow up and r.t. new york. to life now to you know son there from the turkish patriotic party welcome to the program it's great to have you with us now the president out of one called relations with the u.s. for before heading to washington how can both nations get some kind of breakthrough from these talks is it going to need one side to take
2:13 pm
a step back in some in some respects. no actually we here in turkey we don't expect a breakthrough in these talks we expect both sides of the american side and the turkish side to repeat their positions that is the american side will repeat its threat of sanctions and turkey would repeat its justified fight against terror in syria there are organizations in syria there will be of course exchange of diplomatic nice phrases but. breakthrough here is not expected because there is as your report also learned there is a basic and fonda. objective contradiction between the 2 countries. trans claims that his friendship with president obama has been good from the very start well it certainly doesn't look like that from the outside so why might be u.s. leadership see it that way. well that's
2:14 pm
a question you have to ask mr trump he's quite unpredictable but anyhow there is a difference between trump's position and the establishments in the united states the turkish government tries to use this contradiction to a certain degree but we don't have too much illusion about this contradiction and while also realizes the facts on the ground he realizes the fact that now here in syria he's facing a lot an alliance which is constructed in the astana process between russia iran and turkey side on the side supported by syria and he's acknowledging the fact that the traditional american position in the middle east is not really supportable so he is calling a friend because he has to retreat from the middle east from parts of syria so he is i think he's also
2:15 pm
a little bit playing internal politics domestic politics not losing weight not losing face in face of a major defeat that the american suffered here in syria now we've watched while these 2 strategic partner is increasingly turned their backs on each other in recent times what would you say has been the biggest sticking point between them what is the biggest they can point to it between them right now. while your report mentions a lot of points of course turkey's nation security is the 1st and biggest issue and that the united states' support for the p.k. organization in syria delivering thousands of. arms to. establishing local councils trying to establish a federal entity there is of course the main threat but it's not the only threat for the united states turkey's general move. towards what we would call you regime
2:16 pm
turkey's general deepening relations with russia or china with iran is the main threat the 450 shoot is a result of this move of turkey it's not like the source of the problem by the symptom of course a problem seen from the american side it's turkey's general drifting away from the atlantic alliance towards the asian airlines if you may and this is also mentioned in the present to. some congressman on the 8th of november just before a president there advance visit who in which these congressmen state that these moves cause a disruption cause a conflict a huge conflict inside nato itself so the conflict between turkey and the united states is a bigger one bigger than just the support of the bigger than the s 400 it's
2:17 pm
turkey's move away from the atlantic alliance. and now the timing of this 2 hour meeting is quite interesting because it comes what before said you'll score between a do and buy them a putin do you think that would have been a big concern for the u.s. and how might this impact now on both talks with the u.s. and russia. of course it's a big concern as they tried to mentioned in your question before exactly this is the fact what worries the americans most that the president of turkey 1st visits the united states and after that. has a phone call with the president of russia putting this phone called. once again the alliance between turkey and russia he reflects the fact that the evaluation of these images is a joint action between turkey and russia and this is exactly the source of the problem seen from the american side and it's
2:18 pm
a very positive step to inform turkey's allies to inform president putin i would recommend to inform also the president of iran about this visit to the united states and of course what lex is the contact with the president of syria mr. you know so that turkish patriotic party thank you very much for your time. thank you. it will take as president visits america continues to send former i still find his back to their countries of origin and now one of them reported the a us national is stuck in no man's land between greece and turkey and this video you can see him trying to get back into turkey off the greek border guards turned him away and the president of one commented on the case saying that the fate of i'm still fighting to get stuck doesn't concern. rank or plans to send 1500 fighters home but some european countries are resisting the idea we discussed the policy
2:19 pm
with a political analyst from the t.r.t. well news channel. pledged a $6000000000.00 euros to turkey in 2016 is part of the migrant deal which it only paid $3000000000.00 of those euros while turkey spent $40000000000.00 out of its own pocket these people are not turkish they're european and they deserve to go home and they deserve to face justice in their home countries. commit crimes in turkey they're not turkish citizens they committed crimes in syria they're european citizens so where in this equation is it turkey's job to try these people or hold these people turkey's not a hotel like the turkish interior ministry said that it's not a landfill to hold europe's garbage syria and iraq have capital punishment many of the countries where these isis fighters are held the e.u. the e.u. is against capital punishment by leaving these people stateless and stripping their nationality what is that supposed to do wash their hands of wash the hands and say
2:20 pm
ok that's it we have no responsibility these people lived in europe 2030 years they were radicalized here they went there but we stripped them of our we stripped them of their national wrist nationality so it's not our problem you know these people are going to be put to death some of them in syria and iraq so what your needs to do is repatriate them in the name of human rights. the italian city of venice has been hit by its worst flooding in the hof a century reports say 2 people have died. you are. now described as on the brink of a breakdown both parties in hong kong i've been trying to get a grip on increasing violence i thought the shopping malls university campuses and
