cool. was a little bit. i seen was from chile in south america where the un accusing the army there of violating human rights. protests was. severely injured in fact in the crackdown by chilean authorities. i was frightened because i couldn't see any i couldn't think what had happened i've lost 90 percent of. britain's conservative party sweeps through its biggest election victory more than 3 decades the scottish national party meantime also wins by a landslide north of the border. dependence calls coming up we'll look into possible repercussions as. u.s. and china announced the 1st phase of

a potential big new trade deal that aims to overcome the long running tariff. center this very early sunday morning 15th of december here in moscow just to midnight welcome to this. so 1st the united nations is accusing the chilean army and police of committing human rights violations during a crackdown on protests thousands have been demonstrating since mid october demanding an overhaul of the constitution the rest was initially triggered by a hike in public transport cost but in snowballed into a nationwide movement for social reform the government imposed a state of emergency into foreign troops on the street and investigators have highlighted cases of what is unlawful killing and torture 1st off here are some of the key findings. oh.

the. human rights violations documented by c.a.g.r. include the excessive where and this is true use of force that led to unlawful killings and injuries arbitrary detentions and torture and ill treatment we heard too from one of the protest victims whose literal most lost sight in one eye. it was a peaceful rally but the police turned very violent they were shooting that with people in a 2nd when i was trying to hide behind shot i was hit by a bullet straight into my face my forehead and i was frightened because i couldn't

see anything and i couldn't think what had happened i've lost 90 percent of vision in one eye doctors told me that recovery is a very long process of going and that i need to create. a computer 1st of the projectile it's caused an ocular injury and unfortunately there is no hope for further recovery that's less than 5 percent right now as such will have to provide support throughout the that would tear past psychologists or post rehabilitation surgery we're talking perhaps months or even years of rehabilitation in order to address this trauma officially sunday august described the u.n. report as disappointing and said the deaths happened in situations of extreme violence instigated by the protesters. get him early on in that we deeply regret delegations each of them is being or will be investigated one to emphasize that the needs to introduce a state of emergency arose from a situation of violence and not peaceful demonstrations as some have tried to claim

the police in speaking to the local. ignore. and say leave it to you. know the and the kind of paid to go home and be very adamant that he doing the president protests will cheat you or sort of kind mean. these to gain more profit and people are very serious seekers but he did say that the garment crash. systematically i mean the reports of abuse that were systematically but they have the systematic approach and the operation to. united states and china have approved a potential big phase by face trade deal they want to qatari of song chinese goods with the same time boosting american farm exports to beijing it follows a 19 month long trade war between the world's 2 largest economies with more detail artie's caleb maupin well rumors have been circulating for the past few days that

some kind of deal was in the works to resolve the trade disputes between the usa and china the idea being that the tariffs would be scaled back in exchange for tens of billions of dollars of agricultural products and other things being purchased from the united states and some concessions on china's part now in response to these rumors that we heard the democrats speaking up this was chuck schumer reports say president trump sold out for a temporary unreliable promise from china to purchase some soybeans we've heard this song and dance from china before yet again president trump can't be relied on to do the right thing even when his statements were pointing in the right direction now we then heard from donald trump speaking out about how this was simply. fake news this is what he said the wall street journal's story on the china deal is completely wrong especially this statement on tariffs fake news they should find a better lead but just a few hours afterwards we heard china come forward with an official press

conference announcing that phase one of the deal was on the verge of being implemented this is what we heard from the official chinese press conference the agreement will create better conditions for china and the united states to strengthen cool peroration economy and trade properly manage unresolved economic and trade disputes all differences and promote stable growth of china's economic and trade relations given the don would. now trump spoke up afterwards saying that essentially china had agreed to a number of structural changes and would be purchasing a u.s. agricultural products as well as energy and manufactured goods from also said that he was hoping to begin work on phase 2 of the agreement but he would want to do that immediately not wait until 2020 this trade war has been asking lading between the united states and china sense june of 28 teen there's been an escalation of tariffs many many different you know regulations being put in place and different

products being targeted but it seems that some kind of resolution is in the works so we now have an agreement of some degree so folks we're waiting to see what happens next there has been hope before that the trade war was going to be resolved and those hopes of then been shortly afterward disappointed so what comes next it remains to be seen but at the moment many are optimistic that it appears that things are moving forward it will try to kill a move to new york city the 1st law to america meantime broke the agreement in more detail and talk through why it's still too early to hail any real success here. is this deal going to end up being no different than what these 2 countries had to begin with it's like if i take something away from you and then i give it back to you i didn't really give it to you exactly and this was actually the exact same thing that was on the table back in march if you remember the trade deal that was on the table back in march like we said we will buy more ads you take back your tears this is exact same thing and trump was like no we demand ip protection we

demand rights for an american companies in china you need to restructure your government to not handle private corporations he demanded all of these things and now china was like no we're not going to do that and look at the terms of phase one here it's so vague and all of those things are taken out the only thing that are actually legitimate on the table are literally purchases and rollback of tariff so the journey is one of those to roll back as you say are we did we roll them all bartz or not all of them but all of them are all back so the sticking point of why this had to happen today aside from the fact that it was also some impeachment stuff going on right so you kind of take over the news but aside from that as of sunday about $160000000000.00 worth of new tariffs are going to be added to chinese goods and the reason that trump and is needed to get something done today is because had that been enacted for the 1st time american consumers were going to start feeling this trade deal in a negative way and he doesn't want that one isn't is a non deal right now this is a deal for public consumption it's just

a face really the crux of it is face to face 3 and right now in order to save even more face trump said phase 2 is going to be great based just on the eminent danger and we will see how phase one turns out. more than 24 boris johnson's conservative party on a big victory tour of to restore it with a general election that the prime minister's visit to the north of england to meet his fellow party employees who ost a lot of labor rivals to secure a big majority to supporters to. i want the people of the northeast today that we in the conservative body i will repay your trust 1st of all what are we going to do to reach. to get brecht's it died when she got it and we have a deal ready to go before we get it in before christmas we've just been going over there the timetable we can definitely get in before christmas and then we're out on january 31st. well it was the tories biggest election were more than 3 decades the

prime minister earlier said he gives him a powerful mandate to deliver bricks in the poll mark the worst result too for the labor party since the 1930 different picture north of the border the scottish national party was celebrating a landslide victory which is rigged 90 calls there for a 2nd independence referendum in edinburgh i discussed the election and its consequences earlier with correspondent daniel and. the polls are predicting a tory majority you throughout the election campaign but not to this extent i mean labor's been decimated losing your key seats in its northern heartlands of the midlands although many of them seats which voted labor for 3050 even close to 100 years so this is very much been a defeat for labor based really on a lot of people are saying on the question of brics it went in with a very clear message get bricks it done it was very clear very simple it resonated with those areas with those communities that voted to leave and we've heard michelle bernier say no way we're going to get a trade deal signed with britain by the end it will be $21.00 boris johnson so it's going to be well that's the thing i mean no trade deal of this size or complexity

has been negotiated with the e.u. ever and he's saying that we're going to come out by genevieve that if i asked we've been going until june 2022 negotiate this deal it's also could be ratified of course by the $27.00 even the states if that doesn't happen the prospect of a new deal bricks that come this time next year is that very much on the table big spoke in the works along the line what's going to happen on the border between northern ireland or the republic of ireland that's still not sorted out plus there's the whole scottish question the kicking off even more nationalist parties have done fantastically well in this election i mean speaking of ireland the deputy leader. dogs lost his seat to the new can for the 1st time since 1921 says the bottisham of ireland nationalists now outnumber unionists s.n.p. again a whole different kettle of fish certainly no disunity in scotland they were very clear they wanted to remain in the e.u. the s.n.p. has capitalized on that and made massive gains 48 seats won 8 percent increase last night we saw. nicolas there isn't jubilant dancing in fact when the leader just

wins and lost her seat and this is what she had to say on independence for a friend of the last like a stunning election win last night for the s.n.p. renew reinforces and strengthens the mandate we have through previous elections to offer the people of scotland a choice over the future that monday says that it is for the scottish parliament nor a waste minister government to say whether and when this should be a new referendum on independence the office of prime minister and saying there's got no intention of allowing a friend in the near future that you've results the 20. has to be respected and there will be a return to division and uncertainty so he's been an unequivocal that's not a priority that's not going to happen s. and p. they're already preparing to sit down next week and publish what they describe as a detailed democratic case for letting scotland aside and whether there should be a 2nd independence referendum so boris johnson isn't going to have it easy he may have his hands untied he may have lost the opposition of his own m.p.'s of labor

he's got a difficult negotiations coming up and he's got the question of scottish independence and in big trouble in northern ireland as well to deal with that yeah done or good reporting that will in the wake of the conservative cleaner party u.k. discussed it was going to mean for the all but inevitable breaks it now. it to all intents and purposes this election in became a practice at election which in itself was a de facto referendum and therefore in that context it is some of the standard see that labor voters tradition that the areas out. west bromwich outside of booming and embrace the conservative party in seemingly large majorities that then in the leafy suburbs the sorry i don't see a referendum taking place now you know if it's a case of ever wanting to rejoin the e.u. it will be as an outsider study from a position of great obliqueness breck's it was probably because syces factor in most voters' minds but there were

a few other issues that i mean it's fairly obvious that the laborers policies were quite hard left and i think that probably didn't resonate quite so well with as much as the public as they had hoped some of the policies were a little bit a little bit extreme to say the least so that was probably part of it but i think yes the predominant issue was was practice it and the conservative party presented the way forward the certainty of the resolution and the end to the torment and frustration and confusion that we've been suffering for the last few years of course it doesn't mean that the process is finished but i think the 1st stage and crucially the political element of it is now resolved. this offbeat story in for europe next the german capital of local c one aspect of everyday life that is being iconic but all for the wrong reasons so now burley transport system is looking to consign that image to the history books of replying to unesco world heritage to get

that status no less although the company in charge jokingly goes on to admit it's known for over crowding on a route save as it goes on to say rather proudly the transport system is one aspect of the city where berlet is still berlin despite rapid changes evangelos sepsis exit close a look at what it's all about. what does the taj mahal in india the much you paid. transit system have in common well nothing yet but they may soon be sharing the spotlight and you know schools heritage list. who've gone down and. decided to try to be called t.v.'s must see them have in mind is. done by law to teach to the public the berlin transit authority has applied for a world heritage status and wants to be included on the same list of some of the world's most fascinating architectural monuments but what makes the berlin transit system so special the appeared in

a stock page design side. it's certainly convenient and even runs 24 hours a day on fridays and saturdays but if you've ever been on one of their subways you'll realize that the stuff could be a little bit frosty. the education. it will be. some of you think it's all good for a magician so customer service is not really their thing in mention the overcrowding and the long delays so we went around asking berliners what they think about their transit system and whether it should be included on heritage list it's one of the oldest so i think you have to save it and to use it spinning great transportation to use but i don't know if it's exactly. why not because it's an it's a quite old system and in germany the ground system and. underground stations look

like huge because here it's i don't think it should be however he's shown. it's a service rather than a truck. with people already saying yes on the company's website. school right it could indeed have some traction but it could also just be a ticket to the city's public transit network so remember next time you're really. or you're already limited space is being invaded on one other subways this could all be part of a world heritage experience eventual cips us for our. coming up on the program. facebook is accused of risking public health of misleading ads. we'll take you through that and so much more. from the.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this spear in dramatic development only

and going to exist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. to sit down in. again facebook's back in the spotlight over serious health accusations now dozens of rights groups now the courts have signed an open letter demanding the social media giant drop that they claim misinformed people about the effects on vital organs of using the hiv prevention drug truvada the advertisements are targeting. facebook and instagram users and are causing significant harm to public health the signers of this letter request that facebook and instagram remove the advertisements and also publicly address the misinformation that the platforms have allowed to spread. the letter says the risk people expressed heightened fears about

taking the drug after seeing the ads potentially leading into avoidable each of the infections the adverts placed by multiple law firms urged gay and bisexual men to join a lawsuit against the drug maker claiming it's caused harmful side effects facebook says the others don't violate their rules but their policy also states that in some cases they can be removed if an expert organization debunks their claims and i threw roses from the age when a zation health p. told us his view here facebook isn't doing enough. i myself have been taking the drug for 6 years now and i've seen 0 side effects on the drug facebook is promoting an ad that makes it really hard to allow people to have a really powerful and really safe new prevention option their 1st exposure to this pale is that it is dangerous this is misleading false and also only harming public health and the efforts to hiv pandemic globally they want to act like they are the biggest game in town and they are but that means that you have some ethical

responsibilities when it comes to certain areas you need to throw more accurate things about health you need to do some more things about news you claim that you are a news outlet for people in place that people get news but refused to fact check or even engage in the notion and allow people to spread lies that are harmful to people's public health harm so it's a civil discourse and they until this is a democracy. hungry for a minister says he hopes that the new president of neighboring ukraine is going to act on his promises and improve the situation for ukrainians and for the exclusive interview to us pieces here to talk to us at length the resolution of the conflict in eastern ukraine also sanctions on russia and boy thinks about the french president remarks that nato is brain dead. there was one new participant on this meeting the relatively new president of ukraine and you know to be honest when he was elected really felt and you still

feel some hope that things will calm better i mean things cannot be verse done under poroshenko that's for sure i mean from hunger in perspective at least but of course it would be very important to have 3 elections follow diverts and i do hope that he's constructive approach i mean prisons are asking is a constructive approach will help to settle the relationship between the russian federation and ukraine. we are committed to human rights to be respected that's not a question what we don't like is that that sometimes the reference to human rights serves as a basis to. interfere into domestic issues of other countries on an ideological basis on a political basis without any good reason. there should be at that they shun mechanisms launched within nato in order to be able to

address the new kinds of challenges not question but calling nato brain dad that was i mean too much i think i definitely didn't that the movie the best part but the but i mean these are the best should you or we have to understand that there are leaders who like to say a lot say things which can be media ties easily we have to understand that we have to live with that now the the atmosphere of the of the summit was rather constructive everybody was emphasizing the importance of the unity of nato and i think that was shown very clearly that's just a small. much bigger 120 minutes when or if you want to see the full version it's available on social media channels on our website r.t. dot com right now if you fancy but are set for me for now here are next programs for you various ones in your part of the world tailor made for you this weekend or on air shortly to a few minutes back in 30 minutes just over with the next update from newsroom but

one comparative shopping service over another and one candidate over another they can suppress certain types of results deiced on what they think you should be seeing if they have this kind of power then democracy is an illusion the free and fair election doesn't exist the more road we give them the sooner we all hang. together financial guys i don't buy a omelet features. on the friday that's the last time i buy it from the future so prescott watch kaiser.

a tool of the u.s. foreign policy under the guise of fighting fake news and protecting us democracy from foreign influence in 2018 social media giant facebook established partnerships with the atlantic council a nato sponsored think tank and with 2 us government creations from the cold war era the national democratic institute and the international republican institute and not only is facebook been suppressing everything that doesn't fit within a mainstream corporate media talking point box it was also found to be doing experiments on us such as seeing whether they can make us depressed jokes on you zucker very they've been surfing facebook looking to see whether my behi school girlfriend is married with kids then i've already done. you. thank you. that felt the justice

department has been found to have rules for targeting journalists a pair of 2015 memos from former attorney general eric holder to the department of justice is national security division showed how the government could use court orders. to monitor the communications of journalists and news organizations and you see the corporate media will tell you donald trump is dangerous to the media but in fact he's just continuing a longstanding move by the ruling elite to undermine and prosecute journalist but let's be. honest they're not using that power on all journalists they're only there they only need to worry about the ones who aren't doing the bidding of the corporate state they don't need to spy on brian stelter thank you but. i need help there would be no real story if it kicked him in. or the face tough to tell the difference no that was mean no the justice department likely only spies on
