president trump announces a restart of peace talks with the taliban in afghanistan during his 1st visit to the country. the french president doubles down on his criticism of nato want to describe in the military alliance and brain dead. a german court rules that a convicted murderer can have his online details of raised under the e.u. right to be forgotten we put the issue up for debate. but the problem is when you start so high you historic event then the. dimensionless person trying to better themselves the trying not trying to raise the past the trying to be given a fair shot the way of thinking you know what clean slate start again that she's me now not the.

hello you're watching r.t. international amerzone a lot quit thank you for joining us. we start with this donald trump has said peace talks with the taliban have resumed the u.s. president paid a surprise visit to the back room air base in afghanistan and it's the 1st time he's ever been to the country during the time there he announced a substantial cut in troop numbers. we're doing a tremendous job and as you know a big part of the job is isis certainly the biggest and and we have we've got them down very low numbers we have that totally taken care of an aversion or period of time and we'll see what happens the taliban wants to make a deal we'll see if they want to make a deal it's going to be a real deal but we'll see when trump made that statement after meeting with the afghan president ashraf ghani and we heard from karen to task he's a retired u.s.

air force lieutenant colonel she says a u.s. pullout from afghanistan is long overdue. seems like they're trying to rebuild it and i do think there's a chance for i mean we're wasting american dollars in lives in afghanistan truck ran on a platform of bringing the troops home he's got less than a year left to show that he can do that so i think he is motivated he's been trying to do it everywhere in small ways and in every time that he takes troops out or announces a small small reduction of troops the defense industrial complex the congressional complex goes ballistic on him no matter what he does he realizes he will be criticized he might as well just do what he wants to do what he wants to do is bring our troops home you know we support bringing the troops home but congress does not you know we certainly the united states is not going to do 30 years in afghanistan 20 years is enough there's no desire for that i think even the

corporate defense folks have made the money that they think they can make it's time to leave afghanistan is long overdue. the nato secretary general yan stoltenberg has met with a man while necron in paris a month after the french president calls to stop by describing the transatlantic alliance as a brain dead eager standoff has the latest. well indeed the 2 were emanating tension as they were trying to keep a straight face with a less than a perfect game again even as they were delivering their statements standing soldier to shoulder to each other it was obvious that one is way more optimistic about nato then the other have a less nato is a strong alliance but more than that we are adopting it we are agile and we are active so we are responding to a changing world and the reason why nato is the most successful launch of these 2 it is that we have been able to change in the world is changing and that's exactly

what we have done over the last years that's exactly what we are doing to see question so i asked our open questions that we have not resolved peace in europe the i never position the relationship with russia in turkey who is the enemy so until we resolve these issues let us not negotiate whether coasts sharing a burden sharing is there sort of that maybe we need a wake up call vickey. this is effectively the french president refusing to retract his previous comments about nato experiencing brain death this is the exact quote by him from a couple of weeks ago and that was not the only instance one of the 21 the secretary general of nato and the french president weren't exactly seeing eye to eye for instance young stoltenberg has retreated repeated leave that while the alliance the allies in the block do have some issues that they do have their differences he reiterated that well they agree on the fundamental issues but nato is relationship with russia is one of those fundamental issues and that's where

emanuel mccrone again in on 1st of all those members of the bloc refused to have or any sort of dialogue with russia who refused to see russia as a partner this is where emanuel mcquillan called on a more open and a more friendly stance and a more friendly relationship with moscow that. we want to loose it robust and demanding dialogue with russia with neither naivety nor complacency our alliance is based on a certain common history and geography the nato secretary general he also emphasized how he believes that europe is effectively defenseless without nato that europe cannot defend itself well i talked to some of the french citizens and my colleagues in berlin did the same to find out whether or not they realize how crucial nato is for you to be honest. we don't really know whether they do.

was straight or ok to use methods found it is unknown and then to the design them and to certain countries. i don't know at all achievements. i think it was necessary after the ball. but nowadays. it's not important anymore i think basically. no war the last. 60 years 70 years i don't know to be honest i don't know since the eastern part of the us was always down i don't know she needed to natal was historically beneficial for us but of course we have a completely different situation now i should say such public opinion goes in stark contrast with for instance what angela merkel the german chancellor had to say the other day when she said that she believed that nato now is as important if not more

important than it was during the cold war and by the way she was also among those who criticize mccrone for his brain comments so clearly today young stoltenberg and the men are emanuel mccrone didn't come any closer to resolving their differences but next week nato is celebrating its 70th birthday so we'll see for that parties overshadowed by all the differences that this big family has. a convicted murderer in germany has won the right to have his name and other details raised from web searches on the right to be forgotten the man who was sentenced for a double murder back in 1009 $182.00 and served 20 years in jail the case and his name were widely reported in the media and he claims is wrong to privacy and ability to develop his personality have now been infringed germany's highest court agreed with him in tech giants like google will now have to remove the man's

details from search results or the law states that any european citizen can ask for links containing sensitive information to be erased from search engines since being an active in 2014 google says more than 800000 requests have been made to remove more than 3000000 web pages i guess debated the case. well they certainly deserve a 2nd chance but what they don't deserve is to have the historic crimes of they've gone wiped off that no one can find them this is clearly an attack on free speech freedom of information and it's international censorship because the rights of those that he killed the families their victims should never be forgotten but what he wants to do he wants his past to be completely wiped clean but once you start to we erase historic events then you're. rewriting what historic what history was this person should have a slate clean on the fact that the still showing up he's going to be discriminated against or it could push him back into

a life of crime if he's not given the right to leave his old life by law behind if you go for a job you still got suits you still got to give your past previous convictions which will discriminate against you anyway but the thing is there's no point releasing the individual from prison if he's still going to lie if you still want to live in the past i'm all for giving a 2nd chance and like say the rehabilitation offenders should should help but sometimes it's down to employers having confidence in the judicial system to critique behavior for people to come out a changed person and sometimes you need that confidence in businesses to give a chance but the problem is when you start to hide your historic events then that adds another dimension to the people will look into employer if he's trying to hide this what else is he trying to hide this person trying to better themselves the trying not trying to raise the past the trying to be given a fair shot at the way of thinking you know what clean slate start again this is me

now not then do you want to raise the posse could change names always off the internet could just change a name if they want to eventually like let me. right you want to keep repeating yourself but the fact is you can change your name and you can just do exactly that anywhere. i change my name for example when my girlfriend is called you can have a go at the opera not with no if you if you actually go for jobs where they need to do certain disclosures because of the certain criteria you have to say if you change your name or you know by other names so that they can do a proper search yet serve you serve you that society you released as a new person with hopefully with a new mindset you should be given every opportunity so that your past is stricken from the record like ability to go in for jobs it will always come up so there's no getting away from it just about being a new person produce produce projection yourself in a different life and try to become a productive member of society the criminal may have served the time they may want to move on the families can't move on is still there and the should never try and

wipe it because if this try and hide their past what else are they going to try and hide in the future. a video from a rally in paris last saturday raising awareness of violence against women has gone viral and shows around the broke out when women from a feminist group called nemesis collective joined the march. oh ah. 'd the nemesis activists were holding up placards saying that 52 percent of rapists are immigrants a figure taken from 824000 survey the movement says lax immigration policies in france have put many women at risk and they were confronted by other demonstrators who started booing and tearing up their plaque arts or the nemesis activists have since been subjected to a wave of online anger they've been banned it fascists and racists the group claims

other feminists want to silence them or we talked to one of the campaigners who asked us to distort her voice to hide her identity. i don't know. we arrived at the demonstration with our plaque cards and started to protest and within minutes other demonstrators saw a mass of cards it does collated quickly we wanted to cross in a calm way now we have prayed we know that our message she's truthful but there are people who are aggressive to us the violence against women the protest raises questions and demonstration with the slogan all of us turns out not to be for all of us at all since we are being treated like fascists i'm asking what is the basis for this do this women know the definition of fascism i am angry about this attack being treated in that way we have feminist movement we denounce any kind of violence people speak about freedom of expression but do they mean it we have questions to women who pretend to be feminists who say that they represent other women while another nemesis activists we spoke to told us that rapists of my quote

origin and not prosecuted enough and she also asked to remain anonymous. i was in the rage we went to this demonstration because we wanted to defend women's rights we think not enough to set on the subject of migration and when they attacked us like we were fascists it just shows that they attack themselves it is a real problem that in france a woman cannot go out on the street where she wants because of migrants when i am on the street i'm often harassed by men and their nationalities obvious rapists of migrant origin is not prosecuted enough we need to tell the world that everyone should be punished regardless of the skin color there are several types of threats that we get on social media where kids of fascism and braces and these people from the far left do not want to accept the reality they want to prevent us from speaking up. on another news this hour the u.s. president donald trump has pardoned 2 turkeys saving them from being served up for

thanksgiving the lucky birds are called bread and butter the pardons are part of a 30 year old white house tradition trump also use the occasion to crack some jokes about impeachment but while the president might be enjoying himself the u.s. media has cast a gloomy a light on the whole thanksgiving holiday as artie's done a quarter explains. what i say thanksgiving what's the 1st thing that comes to mind turkey. warm hugs with seldom seen relatives or you can forget all that this year thanksgiving is cancelled or at least the media says there's too many pilgrims killing natives involved too many children appropriating indigenous culture a big carbon footprint is left behind and of course peter thinks it's on ethical thanksgiving can be the scariest time of the year if you're a turkey more than $45000000.00 of these fascinating birds are killed to disgrace thanksgiving tables each year. turkeys you don't want to mess with them not after

the toms river turkey rebellion flock of wild turkeys are terrorized going to jersey community toto show how the 20 plus pound birds can be dangerous blocking traffic on yorktown boulevard some residents feel threatened as they walk out their door turkey might be the centerpiece of the traditional thanksgiving dinner table but p. cand pie is almost just as important too bad this year they're coming from china even a loving embrace could now be off limits next time think twice before hugging your daughter reminder she doesn't owe anyone a hug not even at the holidays they could without you even realizing it also the time when you daughter gets their own idea balance concerns and physical affection and the beef gravy on top family chats going around the table and naming what we're thankful for is a great springboard into small talk with our political climate nowadays it's no doubt a slippery slope into dinner table debates good thing we've got

a former state department official to tell us what to do like every family we have people of all political stripes and somehow my loving family members find a way to keep a lid on it at family gatherings that has probably been the saving grace i will be tapping into the common power of a cocktail i would advice others to do the same thanksgiving is having a tough time finding its place in our new wolk world who knows if we'll even have anything left to celebrate i've never thought about turkeys but they're raised for this purpose they're bred for that purpose my family is a little bit divided religiously but we usually put our differences aside despite the differences that people may have you know they come together and they say what they're thankful for you know with the other aspect of it on you know the native americans. take that down as history however in the present day modern time should we not you know follow along the traditions of thanksgiving i can understand for

some people maybe they don't feel the need to celebrate it but i'm not everyone so people can do it makes them come to rome. the global chemical weapons watchdog has passed a controversial new budget we'll have that story and more after this short break. the u.s. house of representatives has wrapped up its 1st round of impeachment hearings against president trump but it's not done with trying to oust him with new impeachment proceedings ahead is impeachment of viable strategy against the president. in a world of big partisan looting. 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. welcome back in the global chemical weapons watchdog has passed a budget for 2020 that's despite objections from russia and china moscow noted that the plans include funds for images from its activities referring to the

investigation and identification since being set up last year the team has investigated chemical instance and apportion blame countries including russia and syria say that such activities politicize the organization but the u.s. envoy says those nations just want to cover up crimes. unfortunately the russian federation has played a central role in this cover up russia and syria and they sit with us here but they stand apart from us in a fundamental way they continue to embrace chemical weapons. well earlier a leaked internal o.p.c. w e mail showed an unnamed employee was concerned that the organization misrepresented facts over the duma incident this oppose it chlorine gas attack in the syrian city last year led to u.s. french and british missile attacks on suspected chemical weapons facilities while o p c w investigators had no mandate to assign blame a joint team pointed the finger at the syrian government both damascus and moscow

said from the outset that the chemical attack never occurred and the russian ambassador to the o.p.c. w. gave his response to u.s. accusations in an exclusive interview with r.t. . if i'm new expression embrace call weapons we are certainly not but once you embrace chemical weapons let me remind you of that the russian federation has completed before the destruction of its chemical arsenals we are committed to the chemical weapons convention to kill the spirit of this convention there is only one country in the world we do you poses to embrace goma called weapons. these current treated years ago none of the united states

disposed to all kind of. it is all says there is still dealing with the destruction of chemical arsenals so all. call up on the united states to fall or the example of the russian federation and destroy all weapons. anti beijing protesters in hong kong have been celebrating and waving american flags after dollar trump sign bills backing the movement china has summoned the u.s. ambassador in response and beijing says the white house is me. if amounts to interference and has threatened washington with consequences. the us has been disregarding the facts and distorting the truth openly backed violent criminals who rampantly smash the cities started fires salted innocent civilians trample on the rule of law and jeopardized the social order its any ms to undermine hong kong stability and prosperity sabotage the practice of one country 2 systems and disrupt

the chinese nations endeavor to realize the great and you'll remind the us that hong kong is part of china and hong kong affairs the chinese internal affairs where no foreign government or force shall interfere this act will only further expose the malicious and hedge monic nature of us intentions we urge the us not to continue going down the wrong path would china will take countermeasures and the us must bear all consequences. while the hong kong human rights and democracy act opens up sanctions for human rights violations and makes it easier for rested protestors to obtain u.s. visas it also requires an annual review of the region's special trade status and hong kong will qualify only if it has enough autonomy from beijing and this could pose a threat to the city's position as a global financial center if hong kong special status is revoked it would be subject to the same sanctions imposed by the u.s. on the mainland china and the same goes for trade tariffs and banking restrictions

limits could also be placed on sensitive technology sold to hong kong or hong kong's economy is already suffering as a result of the violent protests that have been raging for 6 months companies and investors are setting their sights on more stable places like singapore and tourists are also staying away we discuss the situation with antiwar activist sara flounders. but is see aim of this sanctions it really is an effort to totally sabotage hong kong demonstrators they're not demanding democracy imagine they're demanding sanctions on their own city sanctions everywhere in the world it's economic warfare and it's strangulation why on earth would anyone in hong kong make a demand that sanctions be passed on hong kong there is an inch and they may not be aware these are young people without a future. and that's because of what has been imposed on them from the west
