thank you. when i get out on the farm sign. next to this in hopefully bless. this. friday marks the 75th anniversary of the soviet union the liberation of warsaw from nazi germany thousands were sent to death camps or lost their lives in the city that suffered years of occupation to. new partners washington's it just me confirmed it caved into donald trump's threat to impose tariffs on european states if they don't quit the 2015 nuclear deal. and british police ignored the most profound sexual abuse by paedophiles in care homes a new report reveals a former detective who took part in the initial investigation tells her side of the story. we have to educate. and deal

with time and time again. when she joined us this is r.t. international. it is exactly 75 years since warsaw was liberated by soviet and polish forces the capital was occupied by nazi germany for years thousands were deported to death camps from the warsaw ghetto 200000 soviet soldiers gave their lives to stop the brutal regime in the city and its surroundings.

city stood empty and deserted the bodies of poles tortured and executed to be seen in ditches and sewer pipes there's not a single undamaged building remaining in objects of historical and cultural heritage plundered. i. feel.

it is with great joy as i'm reporting to you that today on january the 7945 joint forces of the soviet on his 1st television front and the polish 1st army have successfully completed an offensive operation the turning movement and have liberated the city of warsaw from that sea invaders once and for all. our troops a critique by local police to proceed to the streets to salute how soldiers know he says but she is an express woman great city to liberate the city from nazi occupation. he says well he was a young boy when the nazis seized the wall so here's how he described life and. we're not sure sure sure there were game when i was 11 years old and it came unexpectedly it started with an eye aerial bombardment we didn't even know that

this could all be real like a bolt from the blue bombs were falling out from the sky and your family and friends were dying blood and how old around you so they'd stayed became warse from the 10th of january and now it's a plane stopped conducting but barred minutes but they started dropping incendiary shell us full of white phosphorus there were 2 periods when the terror had reached its highest point during that time hanged in shock people were lying in the streets you were afraid to go outside because the cars could have come and taken anyone you were afraid to ride a tram as no one knew where the germans might stop a person and take him somewhere terrible this is the move most of. the rules were simple everything was prohibited and you had no rights except working for the nazis this was a time when the whole society understood particularly in warsaw that he should do everything to do as much harm espouse

a bill to the occupier in august $944.00 the polish resistance rose up against the occupies the will soar uprising less than $63.00 days before being put down by the nazis at least 150000 people are believed to have died. some in poland. forces actually contributing to the failure of the uprising but not helping of this betray the soviet union is occupy the little difference to the nazis who have a choice of recently declassified documents point to a different scenario as the whole culture explains. the nazi occupation one of the darkest chapters in poland's history nearly 6 long years of death and terror left its capital warsaw all but destroyed the occupiers and their collaborators divided the population by race millions of supposed undesirables shift off to perish in the ovens and gas chambers of the extermination camps women were raped in the streets

men women and children mass occurred in pogroms only to be dumped into mass graves by the end of it all 90 percent of polish jews had been exterminated but 75 years ago on the 17th of january soviet forces liberated warsaw back then the people welcome to the soviet troops here's an account from newly declassified documents. the nazis committed astonishing and terrifying atrocities in poland evidence of human death and suffering was everywhere polish residents met soviet soldiers with happiness and joy for i was they stood in the streets greece and army troops they saluted officers and soldiers expressing gratitude for liberation of the city from nazi occupation but for the city's government now the day the nazis were expelled is no longer an occasion to celebrate why while today's polish authorities don't look back with any fondness for those liberators or anything to do with moscow

right now to them vladimir putin is a liar for daring to say poland benefited from the munich agreement which carved up czechoslovakia in 1938 giving nazi germany and warsaw the spoils the polish authorities also don't like that putin called their pre-war ambassador an anti semite despite the envoys enthusiastic approval of hitler's plan to deport germany's jews to africa but of course it's all really just russia's plan to destroy poland's great reputation a lie that is repeated a 1000 times becomes the truth as google said today we're talking about an attempt to undermine confidence in poland in the eyes of the world community and the kremlin's intentions to sow division within the european union and nato putin seeks to portray poland as supposedly the not quite right part of the west while these very statements are part of propaganda preparations ahead of the 75th anniversary

of the liberation of auschwitz and the anniversary of the end of world war 2 could that mean israel's in cahoots with russia's propaganda plot to after all tell of eve didn't invite the polish president to speak at its auschwitz liberation ceremony he's decided to boycott the whole event in protest especially since vladimir putin is on the list of honored speakers it turns out that the presidents of russia. germany and france whose countries collaborated with nazi germany will speak but the organizers did not agree to a speech by the president of poland the ability to speak in regards to this matter is against the interests of the polish republic ok so poland doesn't want to rub shoulders with those abroad who don't support its historical narrative but at home the law gets tough if you're not on the same page anyone who publicly and contrary to the facts denies crimes referred to in article one shall be subject to fine on the penalty of imprisonment of up to 3 years the sentence shall be made public

except the law only mentions the crimes of the nazis twice most of the text is reserved for describing the actions of the country's liberators from poland it's not so much a question about who the good or bad guys were now it's a mission to blur the lines between the 2 opposing ideologies fascism and communism as the 2nd world war fades from living memory the victim card becomes that much easier to play interpretation and politicize ation of history was also touched upon today by russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov but with you poland's attempt to smear and lawyer about our country both with regard to reasons and outcomes of the 2nd world war and attempts to know use these lies to undermine russia's position in the international arena abound to continue we know for a fact that our polish colleagues are trying to get western countries attending the commemoration ceremony in jerusalem to poland's viewpoint on world war 2 you know

it's simply beyond the pale especially given the tragic context of the event. it was at the press conference for us where a lot of made his remark. time after time at this press event the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov it seems had nor their choice but to keep talking about washington's behavior in terms of how it deals with other countries according to the tactic of constantly building up pressure while at the same time turning a blind eye on the international law it's not only that it hasn't changed in the previous year but actually expand it take for example the russia japan relations moscow believes that they have fallen victim to washington's alliance with tokyo which according to circle of rob is being used by the americans to continue convincing the rest of the world that russia is an enemy and a threat if the issue that you put on is hosting u.s.

anti missile defense systems and our japanese colleagues have been telling us all along it's meant as defense against the korean threat and that's only the japanese military will have control over it but it's the very same u.s. launches that have been tested by the u.s. not only for launching anti missile defensive but also offensive missiles and have a look at the u.s. military strategy they have cooling russia a rival so we can't help but worry moving on to syria mr lavrov proudly pointed out that the conflict and that country was in the final stage of its resolution the final stage of the civil war there however mr loughborough of did blame other countries mainly western countries for setting preconditions before they could start actually helping the country out for instance when it comes to assisting the refugees that could come back to the country or providing the ability to deliver humanitarian aid there plus sergey lavrov did point out that there is still

a threat of the islamic terrorists hands being on todd as a result of the mistakes deliberate or not by some of the forces on the ground which. our allies to the us at the. end on the eastern bank of the euphrates around 10000 i still militants if i'm not mistaken are being held in detention camps by the syrian democratic sources who control those areas mainly kurdish fighters and receiving a lot of reports which we're currently double checking that these fighters are releasing these terrorists in exchange for bribes and they are beginning to spread across syria the information is very alarming and we've long warned our american partners who have sway over the as of the need to make sure that i still militants are not allowed to escape those camps well this brings me to what proved to be the shortest answer of the russian foreign minister at this press conference and i

guess it could serve as a lesson for the future generations of journalists don't ask. about impeachment proceedings in other countries because he's not in charge of that but on tuesday this huge against president trial is expected to get underway in the senate many in the west say this could weaken your support for ukraine as transcending russia's position how could you comment on that we wouldn't know who the impeachment is in the us you're american you would know better than me. going back to internal conflicts in all parts of the world and protest movements that moscow believes are being fueled by some of the nato countries and nato's headmaster in particular have said that he doesn't think the situation will anyhow change in 2020 but that doesn't mean that moscow will stop its attempts to try and talk and still somehow cooperate. around nuclear treaty was among other topics addressed by russia's

foreign minister on tuesday to iran's european partners triggered a 60 day mechanism that could potentially kill off the ill fated to agreement however it turns out they did so under the threat of economic pressure from president trump who pulled the u.s. out of the deal in $28.00 slam washington for applying double standards towards its partners. so a gay lover of their clearly very unhappy with what he sees as pressure being placed on the european nations involved in the iran nuclear deal to activate this clause that's known as the dispute resolution mechanism that ultimately could well bring about the well collapse of the whole or any a nuclear deal those words from the russian foreign minister well somewhat echoed by the iranian supreme leader who is scathing in his criticism of britain france and germany the u.k. germany and france are doing nothing they will serve us interests they just puppets

while london paris and berlin may not agree with the comments that they are the puppets of the united states the news coming out of lynn certainly is that there was pressure put on those european capitals to well adhere to what the united states wanted and it could. who's the current german defense minister and widely tipped as a potential successor to anglo-american as chancellor one she calls it a day she said that yes there was a threat of a 25 percent tariff being placed on european imports of cars and car parts into the united states obviously that would be well almost catastrophic lee expensive for european car manufacturers particularly those big car manufacturers here in germany while britain france and germany moved to activate this clause in the iranian nuclear deal their respective foreign ministers issued a joint statement saying that they were still confident still had hope that the

iran nuclear deal could survive we have therefore been left with no choice given iran's actions but to register today our concerns that iran is not meeting its commitments we do this in good faith with the overall can do object to of preserving the j. c.p.o. a while away from how much pressure was put on european nations to trigger this. clause in the nuclear deal what that clause being triggered actually means is that in around 60 days time the united nations could really impose sanctions on iran if that happens that's pretty much the death knell for the uranian nuclear deal something that would be cheated in washington the united states and donald trump in particular very keen to see the collapse of this deal it was donald trump who pulled the u.s. out of the deal back in 2018 back in may of that year and since then has actively worked to try and see it collapse. still to come for you this hour c.n.n.

promises an eye opening documentary on fake news and its impact on the public despite the channel itself facing multiple accusations of airing unverified stores . well it's finally begun the impeachment of donald j. trump the president and his supporters say the process is nothing more than a political witch the democrats in the liberal corporate media say trump is a national security threat and must be removed but in the end it would seem democracy itself being impeached. america has built a prison called the world and it's the prison it's the runs the prison and the cost of building that prison is 0 because it's all based on everyone in the world is

still willing to accept dollars trade in dollars clear through the new york fed and worship the u.s. dollar wherever you go you'll find a.t.m.'s in countries where as the local currency and dollar for dollar is god no matter what religion you say you are around the world the fact is you pray to the u.s. dollar every day. join me every thursday on the alex salmond shill and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. british police new children were suffering the most profound sexual abuse in the northern city of manchester but failed to protect them that's the finding of a new report offices in 2004 launched operation or gus the to investigate but the report requested by the crime commissioner the probe was from

a chilly closed down before it could complete its work. thank. you. if it's investigation was close to lack of resources but whistleblower maggie oliver who's a former munch the police detective who worked on operational gusta says that there

were other v's. the decision to close down operation orchestra was driven by the decision of senior officers to remove the resources from the investigation this was because it was a very complex investigation but there were other factors involved in the decision to close it down there was definitely an element of concern about the ethnicity of the offenders being pakistani man and the children being very vulnerable white children there was also the resources issue and because it's very labor intensive it takes a lot of time it takes a lot of commitment from an organization to resource a job like this and also and there was a focus on what we call acquisitive crime so burglaries theft from motor vehicle robberies if somebody reported that kind of a crime to the police you would get a 1st class response if you were

a child being raped it wasn't being reflected in performance indicators hence the police did not respond. the initial investigation was triggered by the death of victoria a lawyer a goalie or so she was in the care of manchester city council after her mother's death the girl was subjected to sexual assault and injected with heroin a 50 year old man and paul says carers knew the abuse was going on but didn't dance or police failed to bring the perpetrators to justice 15 year old victoria died after being administered with a heroin overdose in tori's grandmother says that since her death she has been battling to find out the truth. she was such a lovely girl she didn't deserve to die i've been fighting all my life for this she told me herself what these men had done to her. the authorities knew that many victims were being subjected to the most profound abuse and exploitation but did not protect him from the perpetrators as a result very few of the relevant perpetrators were brought to justice and neither

were their activities disrupted this is a depressingly familiar picture and has been seen in many other towns and cities across the country authorities have now launched a criminal investigation following the findings of the report and see if comes the will of lunch the police offered his condolences to the victims i think officers will do everything to get justice for the children will sobrante all over again what senior police and other officials themselves to be investigated. this coverup that's the only word there is for it was absolutely deliberate this report this review it's an independent 3 view makes it crystal clear that this was a deliberate cover up there was a reluctance to acknowledge that it was pakistani men predominantly who were abusing vulnerable young children and their young children that became the

political hot potato it was often said that these kids of 11 and 12 were making a lifestyle choice that they were working as prostitutes that they were kids that is never the case they were vulnerable kids who we had a duty to protect and they all surratt is failed time and time again to do that this is criminal neglect in my opinion it is misconduct in a public office at the highest level and i want to see accountability criminal charges brought against senior police officers senior social workers and potentially going right up to the government if culpability can be shown there for the neglect of people in public office. planning a new documentary that exposes fake news being repeatedly accused of hurdling exactly vance the program will reportedly assess the impact this information

conspiracy theories and false news stories of on people. are examines why it may not be as eye opening as it claims. protecting innocent minds from the harm of fake news has become one of the biggest battles of the day it's what seed facebook twitter and co get tough on patrolling content and it's apparently what inspired this announcement. h.b.o. just announced something i've been working on for a couple of years a documentary titled after truth dissin from asia in the cost of fake news heading up this new project brian stelter host of the c.n.n. show reliable sources now back in august was to space silent as one of his reliable guests on his reliable show said trump killed more people but hitler stalin and mao combined than after he was ripped apart on twitter he blamed tech problems that he didn't hear the gas comments apparently the only thing he can rely on now is the fact that his show is not a smash hit losing over 10 percent of its viewership in

a year but perhaps that's not surprising given that he previously been described a bit on his own show a somewhat less than reliable i mean this was truly no disrespect but i think you could border on being sort of quite a ridiculous figure but anyway let's take a quick look at just some of the stories stele to conclude in his new documentary how about that one on everyone's favorite topic of russia but it was so riddled with mistakes it was not only retracted but then the 3 journalists who have been working on it resigned oh no that was c.n.n. or apparently how all the details of the infamous steel anti trump dossier had been corroborated one hoops turned out that actually most of it hadn't been still c.n.n. well we've always got that bombshell report about how trump knew in advance about the trump tower meeting but then it turned out the source actually didn't exist

probably not c.n.n. again how trump was the 1st president since bush not to take questions at a press conference and then it turned out actually obama hadn't either also c.n.n. never mind i'm sure they'll try to something up in light of all these mishaps it was inevitable then the people wasted no time in weighing in. wouldn't it be easier to just name it c.n.n. we're very aware you've been working on it probably starring a major role free to include this information conspiracy theories and false new stories surrounding the claim that don't know jay trump was a russian asset conspirator blackmail and get your film crew to interview you and colleagues as among its purveyors. booking in the world but what really makes this a jewel of an announcement or an announcement of announcements the timing because c.n.n. has literally just settled a multimillion dollar lawsuit over its fake news coverage of the coding to kids you

know the ones who are smeared of bigots and racists mainly because they're wearing maga hats on the topic of bad timing finance current trending on twitter not in a cool way it's featured in the hash tag c.n.n. is trash it's political correspondents found herself in a unique position of being hated on both by the left and right wing media because of this moment at the latest democratic debate senator sanders c.n.n. reported yesterday that and senator sanders senator warren confirmed in a statement that in 2018 you told her that you did not believe that a woman could win the election why did you say that wells a matter of fact i didn't say thank you very much you want to thank you for saying that you never told senator warren that a woman could not win the election that is correct. senator warren what did you think when senator sanders sanders told you a woman could not win the election. but according to a c.n.n. commentator the question of whether or not saunders said

a woman would never make it to the white house is not actually up for debate because c.n.n. reports on that back in 2018 so must be true so you've really got to hand it to c.n.n. for stealing a monster class and how to lack self-awareness even if it didn't mean to chant up people at the start of what so far can only be called a bumpy here because you're watching us internationally new that i'm sure you know about with the top stories hope see you in 30 minutes. when all is true seems wrong. why don't we just don't call. it. yet to seep out just didn't come out today. and in detroit it was betrayal.
