planned for many months now and this is against a proposed changes by the french government to the pension system here in france the idea here is that they want to amalgamate number of different systems around 42 different systems into a universal system but people say that i will have a massive impact on their pensions because it will mean that their pensions perhaps could be lower in the future or in fact that they might have to work even longer and that has caused huge fury here in france the crimes go all the way back more than a call to god to nor which is where this process was originally due to start off with i what was come for many hours has turned to a huge tensions with clashes between the police and the protesters we saw a van. on fire and they got tear gas really coming quite close to us and you might get a sense of it just down that you can see there more tear gas into the protesters trying move people away incredible as famous just. and as you can hear you know we're
4:06 pm
seeing protests is rushing shops in front of us tear gas is bringing down and those crews are battling. battling you so you are contain this fire you've also been tensions elsewhere in fronts north just here tensions in places like. other cities the suggestion now is that this one day. reich that was initially planned by transport workers and is now encompassed teachers health work is the firefighters and even the police could now start a ruling striking in the lead up to christmas in going on until the new year as the strike is a time to make the french government needs think these pension reforms for the moment here in france people are adamant that they want to have their voices heard this come up to the streets to make sure that's happening. early this week nato

political satire show in case you missed it gives an alternative take on the summit . $29.00 nation alliance which makes up the whole of the world's military spending yet still calls itself. has turned 7 c. congratulations. what a lovely. spread some president trump accused the president of france and anyone not full of being nasty bullied the least popular. video being laughed at by trudeau micron and even boris johnson has been seen around the world today wouldn't say exactly plain sailing for this nato meeting but here come all the leaders now coming in with the. many of the president of somewhere oh yeah i know that one and know that one. together last. next to you. leader of.

4:10 pm
were. ok because so. you could have something different from the us. but. also water. and. you. know well with nato which has become like any 70 year old it's waistline has expanded since it's prolly become a bit of a financial burden to the family they can't work out who it is like small the russians the chinese all the middle easterns. the anniversary party was mobbed by protests in this county and demonstrators vented anger against the 10 days of his objections to nato pressuring the list of rights defense spending because rick sanchez asked his guest about the purpose of nice life and if it really is obsolete it's on its own but it changed his mind. you're a diplomat you've had
4:11 pm
a lot of experience in this field what is it that nato either must do today to stay viable or does do we even need it anymore you know it's a bureaucracy in search of a mission i was right in 2016 when he said it was obsolete and so afraid was the establishment that he meant what he said on the very day he was inaugurated and they tried to ram through the addition of a new country montenegro eventually they got through because it turned out they didn't have to worry about intentions once he filled his administration with a bunch of bushies and retreads of the heritage foundation they've simply adopted the policies we've had the last few decades and somehow turned it into nato is obsolete in 2 let's make nato great again we'll just strong on these countries to pay more for their defense against nobody in particular do you think you know as in fact outlived its usefulness i thought so in 1990 s. think so today it's been obvious a little so from a standpoint of being
4:12 pm
a naturalized american and having read the founding fathers warning you can't seem to angling alliances i mean what is this but in entangling alliances it's our own foreign policy that did reason nato is being kept around by the foreign policy hawks in washington is not because it's necessary for the actual military operations and nato itself doesn't really contribute a whole hell of a lot there are very few countries with the notable exception i want to say france and turkey but it put a bit in as if this is not a good idea for the united states and its very close allies to have an association a military but i would classify as that's what i was trying to say france and turkey could theoretically mountie independent military operations everybody else is just a hanger on and they're just window dressing for us military operations. but the are literally like roman exactly aries i want to do what i'm hearing go bad what word the word of the dysfunction whatever way that is what it seems to be a dismissive alliance in 1991 when the soviet union and the warsaw pact would out of business nato should have as well as why didn't they let russia in that mean that literally that time i've read on many occasions booed himself and said what
4:13 pm
did you get is it going to be are you going to tell you who it was but one of the european european nato hacks said if we did that the nato would be like the un just a talk shop it couldn't take action by which they meant military action all the civil way to listen to what you just said if you're saying it doesn't work if we don't have enemies exactly what if we had a great had the ability to inflict military force and i dare to say aggression in places like serbia and libya whatever we want to using nato as a platform but enemies can change by the way russia can be s.o.b.'s at one time like of the 1950 s. but not so much now right but better why don't you have a system that allows that ability i guess because because whose interest does that serve and all these all these are they have these these military companies and these bureaucrats who have the nice cool rice balls at the expense of their taxpayers because there is a threat out there is a bear in the woods from. moscow has denied it speed i'm willing to cooperate with german authorities of an investigation into the murder of
4:14 pm
a georgian national in berlin in august and have to been expelled to russian diplomats on wednesday i mean moscow hasn't been forthcoming enough or says foreign minister sergei lavrov told r.t. it appears moscow will again be blamed for a crime it was never involved in. the federal foreign office today declared to employees of the russian embassy in berlin to be persona non-grata with this step the federal government reacts the fact that the russian authorities despite repeated high level and in fact it requests did not sufficiently participate in the investigation of the murder of tony k.k. in berlin zoo. they said we did not cooperate enough this is groundless some countries today recalled the tragedy of m.h. 17 my dutch counterpart said we didn't do enough then we supplied them with all the necessary information with data from our radars and so on we gave them everything we're our satellite images the us promised nobody answered that we asked them what kind of cooperation they want from us they responded by saying you have to confess
4:15 pm
you did it that would be cooperate if germany wants to follow suit nothing good will come of it that's not a good way to deal with anyone and with russia in particular. the murder in question happened in late august in 1 of berlin's parks the 40 year old victim was shot and killed on his way to a mosque where witnesses say a cyclist shot the man in the back of the head then fled the scene the slain man congress fairly also known as tony k.k. was a georgian citizen who says 2017 had lived in germany as an asylum seeker who had ties to a high profile chechen terrorists in russia and fought against russian troops and police during the 2nd chechen war was wanted by russian authorities on charges of terrorism the case was seized on by the controversial belling cat investigative group which along with a german newspaper spiegel the quick to point out that to point the finger of blame at moscow allegations that russian authorities that helped the assassin create his
4:16 pm
fake identity economists like a harvard told us the evidence presented so far has been inconclusive. you can definitely see that there are certain interests who want to poison the relationship between russia and germany but it seems that there is some cleaning our work going on where isis and everything around and this high profile terrorist who might be related to all these happenings in there with isis and syria and so on so i think there can be many more reasons why this was done and who did this apart from russia the problem is that we cannot trust any of those explanations from german governments at all it was already with this group it was with iraq all these so-called big evidences turned out to be just nothing and in this case

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic development that only. exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. you see. dating apps such as tender not protecting the users from sex offenders on the platforms according to a new investigation by american nonprofit organization pro publica the probe took
4:19 pm
a look at more than 150 incidents of sexual assault over the past decade finding that the majority of victims were women who met their attackers through match group 10 percent of cases they were paired with men who'd already been accused of or convicted of sex crimes. which turns over 40 of the most popular apps is that they do conduct bank checks. for paid accounts for them or the company says it disputes the findings of the investigation. the implication that we know about such offenders on our site and don't fight to keep them off is as outrageous as it is falls as technology evolves we will continue to aggressively deploy new tools to eradicate bad actors including users of our free products where we are not able to obtain sufficient and reliable information to make meaningful bag ground checks possible 100 more journalists at the spectator magazine and resurface a women's rights advocate gave us their thoughts on dating platforms and the
4:20 pm
screening policies. the match group is a $1000000000.00 company there is no reason why they couldn't allocate just a small portion of their revenue to screen the people on their ab just so that there is just a smaller since of increased safety it's a precaution it's a measure but it's deserved if they appear if they're suddenly saying that we want in order to join the service we want to perform background checks on everyone who joins 1st of all that would kill the business and they know it there's a moral responsibility on these companies that are making billions of dollars 1700000000 dollars from women looking for love to say oh you know what it's too expensive for us to do a little bit to protect you nobody's going to want to join these apps with these kind of if they're doing that they're being this invasive a background checks with that said people maybe shouldn't be on them especially women and not only are these dangerous for women but it's destroying women so just
4:21 pm
get off the dating apps if you don't perform your own background checks on in your own time with your own money get off we're not going to restrict women from using the internet because there are predators we do deserve for these companies to at least take the step into the right direction why do you want to put that kind of power on these monolithic tech companies and up saying you know ban women from dating apps i'm simply saying you shouldn't rely on this and you can't trust these companies to tell you who's good and who's bad you need to take that into your own hands so if you meet someone do a background check before you did for you go out on a date if they work in tandem with the courts to get the names at least of the 1st and last names in the location of where these people are and perhaps create some type of monitor of their internet that's a step in the right direction it's going to be a mess i think no matter what and there's always going to be people who perhaps squeak through or don't get picked up who then commit assaults and crimes get
4:22 pm
a gun ladies. protect yourselves and we don't win and by the way these incidences are obviously extremely rare and you know by and large the vast majority of men are not sexual predators one woman is enough we need the companies to take a moral stance or at least have some sort of responsibility to protect the women that utilize their app and then what happens you know it's it's never going to be a perfect system. he's in brief now in a massive fire is told through a paper found in the center of the indian capital new delhi leaving foolishly 3 people dead according to officials the fire has now been extinguished but the rescue operation continues emergency services say 50 people have been rescued dozens of workers were sleeping inside the building when the fire broke out the factories located in large markets which made the work of the fathers more difficult still to short circuit starts of the 5. hundreds of thousands of people
