a very warm welcome to you you're watching r.t. international with me nicky. now 1st to paris where hundreds of gathered for the latest protest traces. yes the was to end the strike by public transport workers has booked chaos to the french capital for almost 2 months now that's despite the government's promise to compromise agreeing to drop some of the most controversial aspects of that was that they were formed the french parliament is due to do to debate the pension bill next month. i'll present the money mccrone is under huge pressure over the controversial reform on friday night he was booed as he left a paris theater with people chanting macron resigned some demonstrators against mccracken's pension reforms got polish police into the halls to deliver their angry message.

to god. was. us. testers followed macross motorcade as it tried to speed away the president was with poor to do with his wife bridgette in a rented car at a school just by police motorbikes journalist and political activists who have snow to stick mccrone in the theatre and film tim saying that the evening may be eventful after that he was arrested for being part of a group formed with the purpose of committing acts of violence his arrest sparks outrage. meanwhile more than $100.00 protesters in the french capital blocks the entrance to the iconic louis museum people have joined union calls to demand the complete withdrawal of mcclellan's proposals but there are mixed public feelings

about the protests. caught on camera the filmmaker to you i'm happy that they're defending culture i left at 7 in the morning from dish on where i'm from to see the an artist of each exhibit but it's not a big deal because if they do not strike there won't really be a wall for as we know it so i don't mind the strike i'm actually happy i supported them. if someone would lend my hand i'm ready to break through the picket line because this situation is unacceptable i don't care about their pension issues . they're uniting and supporting each other reinforcing each other so that's why i'm here also called we are against it they should not be here. is what this anger should be directed at the government who wants to force the pension reform project through we're not the ones that are standing in the way we're not blocking the public cultural service on the contrary we're fighting for

a strong public cultural service where you look at the support of the population of the strikers we're very surprised to see the government maintaining its position is of extremism that is unacceptable for a democrat like me who voted for manual micro in the 2nd round of the presidential election against. a russian programmer arrested on washington's request walsall authorities are resorting to torture an effort to break him alexander vinick is being held in greece on u.s. cyber crime and money laundering charges he's now written a plea for help. they're trying to use torture and psychological pressure to break me they do not allow me to breathe fresh air the last time they let me out for a walk for a few minutes was on new year's eve i'm a man without rights illegally imprisoned in greece for 30 months without charges they want to destroy me for my knowledge they want my head on a block just because of what i know and my technological abilities the case of

alexander vinick is a case of blatant violations of human rights it's an international disgrace this man is been imprisoned for 13 months without a charge in greece he's not being prosecuted in greece without a sanction without a penalty without a trial alexander is not a criminal alexander is someone who has extremely high skills technological skills in blocked chain technology he has not targeted for any kind of criminal behavior because it's very clear that what he has done is not criminal however what he has done is very very annoying to those who wish to control the economic. exchanges of the people what is worse is that during the last days the conditions of detention of alexander didn't make

amount to cruel and inhuman treatment which is a form of torture as we all know alexander is being denied the right to go outside his. hospital room he's been hospitalized during the last 12 months more than 12 months actually and today his mother who came to visit him from russia was the night of the right to see her son. but it was arrested in 2017 and u.s. accuses him of laundering billions of dollars through a digital. currency exchange he's also wanted by france which claims that it carried out fiber fraud from his prison cell russia wants to question him as well well athens has already approved his extradition to all 3 countries however russia's acting foreign minister has criticized prestigious warning that greece has completely failed to examine the evidence presented by moscow another lawyer for

the neck to a famous out of told as why he should be extradited to russia. greece has not only decided to extradite alexander simultaneously to 3 countries but has also specified the order by which alexander should go to these countries the point is that the extradition of alexander to the united states cannot be fair as he has never been there and hasn't committed the crimes that the usa attributes to him work with new technologies cannot be a crime specially if at the time of the activity the legislation regulating these actions simply did not exist concerning france they used only american evidence and investigators have never concealed it but today we know that france is not going to conduct any prosecution against him on its territory so the decision about the extradition of alexander vinick to france and then to the united states is purely technical the so-called greek trick is this to send him to france where he's going

to be rejected and then sent him to the usa. the best ending for both alexander vinick and for every other party to this case will be of course his extradition to russia because russia is the place of the alleged crimes and because russia has all the information it is capable of creating a joint inquiry commissions for conducting an investigation in any field. 77 years ago today the red army broke the nazi siege of leningrad with the blockade ending a year later the vast majority of victims in the city died not from bowling but from hunger and hypothermia while in grad may have changed its name to so petersburg the horrific memories still run deep. there are.

youngsters who by the way me and my friend went to a store with food stamps there was a huge field and suddenly we saw a plane it dropped a bomb we were taught that if we see a bomb flying towards us you have to run in the direction of the bomb because that way it will pass over you but we ran away we got away and kept walking and suddenly i realized i'd left her behind she walked towards a fence i came up to check on her and realized she was hanging on the fence already dead my friend what could i do i was barely alive myself some people helped me carry her home a good thing we weren't too far away from home you can't work. like up you know when my father died of hunger and we were going to bury him the weather was extremely cold it was about minus 36 or 38 degrees we owed thanks to our

neighbor who constructed the casket for him and helped us to carry my father to the cemetary. the cemetery there was a chapel next to the chapel there was a pile of dead bodies higher than the chapel itself and every time i come to that place i still can see this pile of dead bodies in my head i still have this picture in my head. was it. right after i buried my father i signed up as a nurse at the military field hospital once in january i came home from the hospital and my mother was lying on the bed hall for life but she said to me zoya i think i'm about to pass away i bought meat patties at the market and i think they're made out of human don't leave the girls alone don't marry too young and don't cut your hair short after an hour she died. what.

they always said the russians will when our pilot course was shot down i remember they carried him in sheets she was all brown his skin was brown from bruising and we prepared a warm bath for him with medicine they load him into it and he exclaimed please save me i have to keep flying i have to keep fighting. through but you know well during the war many lives in the city were saved by the simple takes of a metronome.

the metronome followed by sirens were broadcast on 1500 spaces throughout its leningrad a slow beats my. retreat want to fast one warns german bombers while on their way it became a symbol of resistance to the nazi air raids and 2 attempts to stop people to death in a way if an ocean reports from the northern capital. leningrad known today as st petersburg was a main strategic targets for nazi germany and the fates they prepared for this beautiful city was still laid to waste by bohrman 8 and also starred in its almost 3000000 population to death the horror of the siege was hollow dest became routine when you walk down the street when you remember it or rather try to forget you come across dead bodies carried on sledders all the time or dead bodies lying on the streets and at some point those a lawyer they simply stop paying any attention to these horrific sides the

appearance read i remember the 1st time i saw a corpse on the street wrapped in some rags at 1st it was scary but then people got used to it and just walked by i can see the bodies were just randomly dumped in the streets eventually they took them away. from kids their childhood was stolen by merciless war bombs and hunger there was already too much for them there was something maybe even more terrifying as lack of food became too dramatic children as well as many adults often became a target for enough to germany for hungry people so the worst thing was the hunger it was unimaginable at the factory they gave us just 200 grams of bread it was made from strange ingredients some a drop in the cabbage others burned sugar there i don't know how i survived and i

think god saved my life of more. people struggled but even so couldn't bear it anymore the water supply system froze. and kill lots of people hungry people freezing people they now became just 2 people searching for war to everywhere including sewerage system. we went to get water on food which is ledges it was very cold there was a severe frost the river had frozen over but there was a hole and people were queuing to get water to drink and people still wonder how we didn't die drinking this water the citizens during tillery shelling this side of this street is the most dangerous says this sign one of many similar across the city these warnings became a symbol of the dangers faced by residents of let it grow during the siege and still today they stay as silent reminders of those terrible day but i'm a puritan has also been taking part in commemoration invents he laid flowers that

belonged monkstown monumental the nevski memorial size it was the scene of fierce fighting during the 2nd world war and his believe the russian president's father was also injured. still to come questions like where are you really from could now and you're in trouble as a u.k. university which is paying students to snitch on classmates deemed to commit racist and micro aggressions story and plenty more coming up after this very short break. in the united states presidential candidates debate the future of the u.s. and the world. max kaiser and stacy herbert dig into the burning questions of this election cycle one topic every week will tax student debt trade wars

corporate money universal basic. and more catch up with what's front running this sunday exclusively on r.t. . what politicians do. put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. wanted. to go right to the press that's what would. be good. interesting reason why.

welcome back stop making everything a race issue all comments like that because now plunger in hot more sort of a u.k. university which will pay students to snitch on people making what it calls racists micro regressions sheffield university in northern england will hire 20 students as race equality champions and pay them all the $9.00 pounds an hour to investigate offenders other examples of unacceptable questions are why are you searching for things to be offended about and why are you really from wealthy people for their reaction to the move. sometimes like you do you don't realize that you like maybe being mean with some women and you don't even realize and i think it's important to talk about it people often ask us. what their form so far say for example based. on. a lot of people stopping you know your talent your know your

terrorists by a lot i do get i was like oh where you're from because i know that i have a little accent and there was a oh i'm so sorry and i why are you apologizing because i don't take a as like a bad thing i think is an air of ignorance really. i just not really being aware that someone might be offended by subway however there's been a significant online backlash to the university's initiative the regime of the shuffled university have decided to police incidents of perceived rudeness with an army of bade student my group russian detractors for police jobs at the university of sheffield how is this not illegal what the hell have i just read the also problematize is even benign curiosity is a micro aggression and therefore is racist this is a recipe to create a climate of distrust and a breakdown of social relations these people do not speak for me. they invested claims its main objectives are to facilitate healthy open discussion and give students the tools to think critically about race issues they say is micro

aggressions have a real impact on minority groups talk radio host and columnist jungleland feels the program could end up doing more honking good. we need to obviously condemn racism but recruiting students to do it like as if they're undercover are think it's horrible i think it's the sin and of a very very big wedge and also will be very concerned about who just saw each word is nought allowed to be said is another a check on freedom of speech and universities should be concealed rules of free speech these kids eventually are going to go out into the real world if they work in a factory if they work in an office they're going to hear the news they don't like . it's about challenging that of course and i just think this is not going to prepare them for the real world and tackle racism tackle sixes track all the surgery and tackle homophobia of course and make sure your institution is inclusive

but this is not the way to do it this is a already true great step this huge of some idiotic academic who's never lived in the real world themselves you need to get a life and get out of students' lives. take a look at some news imbrie from around the world now hundreds of tractors have packed onto the streets of berlin farmers along with a co activists are protesting against the agricultural policies of both germany and the e.u. but demonstrators accuse the german government of prioritizing large scale farming at the expense of climate friendly organic methods attractively descended on berlin from a number of regions throughout the country. african migrants have started fires outside greece's morea refugee camp following the stabbing of a 20 year old bear by demanding to be held separately from immigrants from afghanistan or authorities arrested in afghan at the camp over the killing.

thousands of gathered in the chilean capital for 13th week of protests rallies began over metro fact increased its place on friday deployed was occurring to disperse. and so after demonstrations turn violent. the authorities in the philippines say the tal volcano remains life threatening but after its sudden and spectacular ruptured more than a week ago even now is continuing to cover surrounding areas in ankle deep and mud around 20000 people have been evacuated from their homes. the german foreign office has apologized after in appropriately trying to tap into the viral hashtags to do some one in 4 words government institutions around the world are trying their 100 humor in the latest twitter craze but for many users their efforts aren't exactly love at 1st sight.

x. x. . x. x. . your v. said god approved. when i had barely graduated from underground i was offered an internship at the un in bonn germany after an extensive visa application process delays and uncertainty i was informed 2 days prior to the beginning of my internship that my visa application was rejected dunker this is not funny playing on people's feelings is inappropriate there are thousands of people waiting for their visas that's simply the real face of you guys period. acting

out and being funny is apparently not always our strong seed we deleted it we both know and apologized to all who were offended by this we know that the surprise is complex and these are decisions can deep effect people's life's alcoholics take the decision severely seriously. you shouldn't apologize the joke is actually good good now i am offended that you deleted that wheat because apparently offended someone with no sense of humor obviously. well until it is know what you think by following us on social media and if your comments match the back of the top of the hour the latest headlines say about.

them in awe. no no no. no no no no. wisdom is the application of practical knowledge you know group or your ways in novel called but if you learn a particular scenario being a class could be a variance and you encounter that exact same scenario knowing what to do is just memory that's out wisdom that's not learning it's just memorizing some wisdom comes

when you are facing a brain new context and you can draw upon tools and learned in other contexts systematically to know what to do. you are no offense but you no longer a young woman in fact you are one of the last living survivors of the nazi else asked i'm aware of it. all your life. and you can never forget. they are gone now auschwitz was really like to be inhaled because he would never believe that want to go to as a copy of a course for 33 years and over the curb it it all seems so a lot over by a little sad. when i get out on the farm saw you know what.

makes the place and hopefully the bless god heard. good food descriptions sound up to tell using even for the owners so how to choose just pet food industry is telling us what to feed our pets really more based on what they want to sell us than what's necessarily good for the pet turns out may not be as healthy as people believe and we have animals that have you know diabetes in our stratos they had auto immune disorders allergies we are actually creating these problems it's a huge epidemic of problems all of them i believe can be linked to sherry simple problem of diet and some dog owners so heartbreaking stories about their pets less treats the larger corporations are not very interested in proving or disproving the value of their food because they're already making it

a $1000000000.00 on it and there's no reason to do that research. america has built a prison called the wall and it's the president's team right and 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 and countries where as the local currency and dollars right 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. it.

was redacted just a comedy show we're americans in america covering american news are called foreign agents the i want caucuses are just over 2 weeks away february 3rd that's the day that in a grand show of democracy a small number of iowans get together to decide who will rule over all of us for the next 4 years. and the mainstream media has gone missing that bernie sanders could win the nomination. but they're acting surprised about it as if it's shocking that the guy with the most individual donors the largest number of volunteers the largest attendance at his event and who regularly polls 1st or 2nd place could pull it out one of the odds i think the reason the corporate media and the d.n.c. are shot is because behind closed doors they're going. thought we rigged this

thing i thought we rigged i did jury rig did i agree i told you rick did you forget . what the empire does not give up that easy there are still myriad ways that this process is rigged in favor of a centrist like joe biden or people to judge and for those kids you know still in the beginning of course if someone says they're a centrist that means they're republican. and if they say they're republican that means a paint chips as a child. anyway let's focus for a moment in california california is one of the biggest. prises with 495 delegates up for grabs and it's even more important distributors because their primaries are now on super tuesday march 3rd one of the biggest days in the entire election right now bernie sanders a.k.a. old man rational has jumped to the top of the california polls.

so if you were the ruling elite of california and you wanted to rig your primary against people like burning sanders what would you do well i guess one thing would be to make it really hard for people to vote if they aren't full on mainstream joe biden love and democrats you see candidates like bernie sanders attract a lot of voters who are outside the 2 corrupt wall street parties aka independents in fact 41 percent of america consider themselves independents now they are the only 28 percent democrats and 28 percent republicans so if your an independent in california when you register to vote you might have checked a box that said american independent party there's only one problem the american independent party is basically a neo nazi group.
