and activists in the u.k. raise concerns about domestic abuse survivors taking part in the country's upcoming elections it's plain that registering to vote could put their lives in danger by making their personal data public. watching our team for national bring your live news update from our studio here in moscow welcome to the program. secretary of state has announced that washington will impose sanctions on iran's nuclear facility also repeated his support for the ongoing protests in the country tehran hit back by accusing the u.s. of stirring up on rest. united states will terminate the sanctions were related to the nuclear facility at fordo people enjoy a better future when their government begins to respect basic human rights abandon its revolutionary. posture and its destabilizing foreign policy in the region and

behave simply like a normal nation but. it is strange the united states and its officials who have committed the greatest of crimes by imposing much more pressure and the tougher sanctions on iran are communicating to the iranian people that they support these protests we don't expect anything else from mr disgracefully defense the much more pressure regime and the position of sanctions on iran. the unrest broke out after a surprise 50 percent hike in fuel prices which was announced on friday mass anger boiled over in at least a dozen cities with buildings vandalized and pictures of iran's supreme leader burned the iranian government said the revenues would be used to help the less well off it all 4 comes with the country in the grip of a deep economic crisis aggravated by tough u.s. sanctions. and has more on. the trumpet ministration seems jubilant about the recent protests in iran as i said to the people of iran almost a year and a half ago the united states is with you now the protests are being driven by the

economic situation g.d.p. growth projections are down by 9.5 percent inflation is it 40 percent and unemployment is at 16 percent and rising but it was a 15 percent increase in the price of fuel that sparked the recent turmoil. now. an economic squeeze like that is bound to get people upset but why is iran in such poor shape well donald trump has a lot to do with it in 2015 the international community agreed to lift decades old sanctions in response to an agreement that was reached about iran's peaceful

nuclear energy program but then along came donald trump he decided to pull out of the nuclear agreement he says that iran broke the spirit of the deal however international observers say that iran fully complied as of today i can state that iran is implementing its. commitments after pulling out of the deal the trump administration began imposing sanctions on iran intended to wreck their economy accusing iran of quote destabilizing activities around the region the usa even threaten to impose sanctions on other countries that dared to buy iranian oil anyone doing business with iran will not be doing business with the united states i'm asking for world peace nothing less. where sanctions on any activity subject there's directions after the iran nuclear deal in 2015 iran was exporting roughly $2500000.00 barrels of oil per day now that number is down to roughly 200000 in

a country where the economy is centered around state run oil exports that's a pretty big financial loss and it has been detrimental cuts in fuel subsidies and other benefits for the population had to be made so i don't know belong to operate . and made a decision for the country based on expert assessments and this decision must be executed. but according to donald trump working to economically ruin iran makes him the best friend of the iranian people nothing says i love you like bleeding someone dry as cool nations to support iran's people as they struggled to reclaim. their religious and rights is. today i want to deliver a message to the long suffering people of iran. the people of america stand with you will be arrayed in people return to the nations proud roots as

a center of civilization culture and wealth where their people can be happy and prosperous once again the united states throughout the reigning in history has always been against democracy i mean the united states was the country together with britain that instigated the 1000 the rule against democratically elected mohamed right now it's no different i mean the united states has imposed very severe sanctions on iran which is 1st a lot of ordinary people so coming out and saying that they support these people is hypocritical in the sense that if you do support these people then you wouldn't sanction them so hard that you know they are having difficulty. with their normal lives. as tensions rise in iran a new documentary by the redfish media group looks at the impact of decades of u.s. sanctions on the economy on the aggressor over there not just after regime change

and in my own time during these the toughest sanctions ever imposed on a country. sanctions have a negative impact for the poor poor the sanctions are intended to cause pain. so i don't think there's going to be war in iran is too powerful drugs have to run in allies across the region some of the money the americans want to pressure the people with the sanctions until they grow is not against the government that's beyond. you can watch that documentary in full this friday via the redfish you tube channel . like ok also provoked outrage by announcing a reversal of a decades old stance on israeli settlements in the west bank he said they do not

necessarily violate international law the solomons are on territory occupied by israel since the 1967000000 swore under one of the most contentious issues in the conflict between israel and palestine. the u.s. administration has lost its credibility to play any future role in the peace process the statements of secretary pompei constitute a total jip departure of the us administration interests of a trauma administration or from international law the role of law so regardless by beautiful means they are replacing international law or the law of the jungle settlements in occupied palestine are a blatant violation of international law and un security council resolutions they are an illegal action that will kill 2 state solution jordan's position in condemning them is unwavering we warn against dangerous consequences of the us change of position on settlements on middle east peace plan all settlement activity is illegal under international law and it erodes the viability of the 2 state

solution and the prospects for a lasting peace. for 4 decades the us regarded the settlements as inconsistent with international law. much of the international community which cites the 4th geneva convention washington's change of stance contradicts numerous un resolutions and international human rights conventions and is only the latest controversal move by the trump administration concerning israel earlier it recognize israeli sovereignty over the golan heights that territory was seized from syria in 1967 and formally and axed in 1981 and washington has also broke with international consensus by formally recognizing to respond as israel's capital decisions were widely condemned including by the un when the us announced the embassy relocation violent protests erupted with its really forces killing dozens of students political commentator i mean or and what the implications of the latest decision will be. of course

a very. discriminating way of conducting diplomacy and the united states has chosen to act unilaterally disregarding the united nations security council even allies and western allies do not see eye to eye washington. so obviously it will not be a precedent and do and i think states will probably be isolated obviously this is going to please the right wing it is not going to change anything if the toll it is going to give more strength to those extremists in the palestinian community who say that diplomacy is not. for statehood and that they must act violently and therefore israelis should be against. the

announcement for e. supporters of the wiki leaks co-founder julian assange stood outside a london court on monday while a brief hearing took place inside a songe appeared to be a video link from prison his lawyer argued that a songe is unable to prepare for his extradition case because the computer he's been provided with is unsuitable the hearings proper get underway in february it's the us that's seeking a songes extradition and accuses him of conspiring to hack government computers and april that wiki leaks co-founder was forcibly dragged out of the ecuadorian embassy after quito terminated his 7 year asylum there he sought refuge following a sexual assault allegations in sweden which he has denied arguing they were just a pretext to extradite him to the u.s. back in 2010 he published classified documents leaked by former us army soldier chelsea manning these revealed alleged us war crimes and iraq we spoke to iceland's

former interior minister. and he told us the f.b.i. tried to free my son. i was aware that the american intelligence services were in iceland to have us make us implicit in framing giuliana. signs they in fact came to iceland illegally without the proper permits this i know because i was minister of interior of the time but above from that apart from that apart from the legality of the visit the purpose of the visit was immoral it was immoral and we didn't want to have any part in that this is why the what i was totally they're working on this all the time and they've been doing this for years there have been pressure raising venezuela. ecuador and they have been pressurizing everybody around them this is this is no no no. they're

looking towards britain and asking the brits to help them on the course the british and other notorious nato states are also complicit in some of the crimes that we told us about way back in 2010 to the stand on 12 especially about the attack on libya. since in the middle east and so on and so on and so you know there is a vested interest or support with many states or military parts of the states to keep quiet and to work with the americans. in the u.k. activists are worried about survivors of domestic abuse taking part in the country's upcoming general election pointing out that if they register to vote their former abusers will be able to find out their address from the electoral roll that's more

hears are to see sally. to the budget boxes they try to sort through the breaks it does look but. some of the most vulnerable citizens could be effectively forced out of the process entirely victims of domestic abuse so that the u.k.'s electoral system puts a risk. partners the u.k. has a publicly available electoral register which means that if someone registers to vote their full name address can be discovered and they could be tracked down for their safety if survivors have to ask a piece is something that can be at risk for a really long period after they've left their abuser even if they escape to refuge and leave the perpetrator and move to a different place they can remain at risk in their their lives that their children can remain at risk for a really long time because of these doesn't stop when the relationship stops many survivors or face consistent threats of peace and harm from perpetrator for

a really long period of time so it can be really really important that their identity is kept anonymous and they can stay safe. by keeping their names their addresses and other personal details anonymous. for a long time after they fled their piece so it's really important that survivors can access this system whereby they can register to vote anonymously and at the moment when we continue to be concerned that the system just doesn't let them do that easily now changes did come into force last year and made it simpler for victims of abuse to register to vote anonymously but that other limits the only last a year the government expanded the list of evidence for abuse but victims are forced to keep reapplying every 12 months to protect the data and the problem has become more pronounced with the current level of domestic abuse in the u.k.

the number. deaths caused by domestic violence has reached its highest level over the past 5 years nearly 2000000 adults say they have experienced some kind of domestic abuse and activists say the government isn't doing enough to protect those who are at risk this is really important that the government and all public sector agencies put in place the measures that this devices need to say safe and of course one of the a's is being able to keep your i didn't see another mess in faith and if we can survive that domestic peace that automatic right in anonymity and in safety we need to ask whether we're enabling or all of. our citizens to have to exercise that then right democratic rights and that freedom is a month till the u.k. election for those who have been subjected to domestic abuse it's not just about political preferences but also about the charts to vote safely. london.

we've asked the u.k. government to comment on this story although so far we have not had a response from them or global news break it continues after the short break. the world is driven by a dream shaped by. the day or thinks. we dare to ask.

there was an imaginary goes. enemy out there called russia during the russia gate hoax meanwhile you look up the way the other 5 g. technologies come out of china and other technology of china china is actually leapfrogging ahead of the us economically and now be feasibly the currency war so now that whole period of focusing on russia it would be is just a waste of time we should have been focusing on the actual rival america's very dominant in the us now is the time to. come back humanitarian group doctors without borders has criticised conditions at a migrant camp in bosnia herzegovina calling the place dangerous and humane hundreds of refugees are trapped in the improvised camp at the croatian border as they try to reach western europe.

living conditions and which occur in that acquired and we cannot take responsibility for the health of people committing to that who cannot work in such conditions. you know some of the words man is saying if you want to go to court or if you had already been. giving me money 303000 new york for the new yorker or the new gun go read me but i am a poor man nor do money some of their own go to alone with. their reality of bts of course very shocking. sight is clearly not

a side that can provide any basic. accommodation and services to the migrants here. we talked about this since oct $28.00 we talked about non-existing coordination with state or thirty's about no coordination with police agencies no one wanted to listen to us us residents of this region so we came to only one conclusion to check has to be closed and people will have to be resettled elsewhere. now don't forget we have plenty of stories on our website as well including this one astronomers are angry with me on mufc accusing him of polluting the heavens and blocking their telescopes. entrepreneur plans to send tens of thousands of small

satellites into low orbit as part of his startling project get that story in for at r.t. dot com. republicans in the u.s. congress are demanding answers from the news all of a.b.c. accusing it of burying the truth and a letter they urged the network to explain why it shelton interview a few years back with an alleged victim of a convicted pedophile jeffrey epstein. what appears to have been presented to mr obama is 1st hand evidence of human trafficking i am deeply concerned that this victim in search of justice went to a.b.c. news provided information and an interview and then a.b.c. news chose to burry the truth it is imperative that the public be assured newsroom decisions regarding exposing human trafficking are not tempered by financial interests or outside forces a video recently surfaced of a.b.c. host amy robot complaining that the interview had been dropped lawmakers want her to shed light on who prevented the story from running. that story for 3 years i've

had to see if you would 'd for any roberts then and the palace found out that we had her whole allegations about prince andrew and threatened us a 1000000 different ways she told me everything she had pictures everything she was in hiding for 12 years we convinced her to come out we convinced her to talk to us it was unbelievable what we had cleared with everything. i tried for 3 years to get on to no avail and now it's all coming out and it's like these new well of revelations and i freaking had all of it i am so pissed a.b.c. has defended its decision not to run the story claiming the journalist could not verify the claims being made jeffrey epstein was a disgraced financier and convicted sex offender he pleaded guilty to soliciting a minor for prostitution back in 2008 earlier this year epstein was again arrested and was facing a spate of sex trafficking charges before being found dead in his cell authorities ruled his death as a suicide journalist analysts are says that a.b.c.

it might have been scared by epstein's powerful connections. the case of a.b.c. in the row back said it was actually pressure from the british royal family that caused a.b.c. to back off from the story but there are other things as well i mean geoffrey epstein had a very powerful friends in very high places bill clinton for one. prince andrew for not for another. and so so therefore the a.b.c. was may very well have been afraid of tangling with forces like those so so the media's reputation is hurting really badly and this latest episode involving a.b.c. and jeffrey epstein doesn't help at all so we publicans are very happy to pounce on this latest transgression. the u.s. army has issued new playing cards for its soldiers with the aim of helping them memorize the weapons of their enemy is among them the russian men as 400 air

. and. that's a wrap up of the day's top news for now but don't forget you can always find us on many of your favorite social media platforms like twitter and facebook to the minute reports. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy to from day shouldn't let it be an arms race move his arms off and spearing dramatic development only mostly i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk.

we were witness to a grand display of magic caught watchers when united states president donald trump took out his magical. then when then with a few quick flicks of his wrist disappeared the sins of 3 u.s. soldiers accused of committing various types of war crimes including one criminal conviction the servicemen were army major matthew l. goldstein who was facing a murder charge over the controversial killing of an unarmed man in afghanistan he claimed was a taliban bomb maker was also a former army for me army 1st lieutenant clint lawrence who was convicted of 2nd degree murder back in 2013 for ordering his soldiers to open fire on 3 on armed afghanistan villagers and then according to the new york times called in false reports over the radio to cover up what had happened he was a mediately turned in by his own men and finally trump reinstated the rank of chief petty officer edward gallagher the controversial navy seal who was recently

acquitted of murdering an islamic state detainees but but ended up being convicted of the crime of posing for pictures with a corpse yes with a corpse getting selfies with an enemy corpse what a lovely trilogy of people in response to trump's pardons heena shams the director of the a.c.l.u.'s national security project tweeted with this use of his powers trump has sent a clear message of disrespect for law morality the military justice system and those in the military who abide by the laws of war i would include the victims of these crimes but i have no illusion he trump cares for them and while many have a right to be upset by the president's choice of pardoning these 3 we should not be shocked because when it comes to war crimes in the us government the real magic trick. is our great red white and blue disappearance of accountability i mean hey you're responsible for invading

a sovereign nation and killing thousands maybe millions you get to go to football games with ellen if you're really really really bad an orchestrated all of that invasion you get a brand new heart and or if you defend torture and spy on congress you get a job at amisom d.c. now let's start watching honks. the. real that would. you prefer to sit. like you that i got. with that we. would. welcome everyone watching the hawks. all right earlier i was joined by journalist blogger and author of the new book.
