10:01 am
watching our national having with us. ok let's start with a major shake up in german politics a key regional prime minister's quits just hours after taking up the position that amid a huge backlash over a political union that brought him to power. this resignation was inevitable the dissolution of the parliament is inevitable the f.t. tried yesterday with a perilous trick damn democracy there was no cooperation with the f.t. there is no such cooperation and will never be. joins us now live from berlin must be one of the shortest political reigns in history would have thought this to bring us up to date. thomas carrick they're quick to say that he had nothing to do with the deal with alternative for germany but well how long he sticks around at the higher levels of the free democratic party with that may be
10:02 am
measured in hours similar to his reign as prime minister of the state of to india he's fairly much in the firing line at the moment and it's been a huge backlash to this situation it's unfolded in to india backlash from politicians also from the public as well it follows this union basically this alliance between the c.d.u. which is angler merkel's party on the right wing alternative for germany party the f.d.a. to support and back thomas kennedy to be the prime minister of the state of to india that resulted in condemnation well condemnation from on high angle of merkel herself having something to say about it. fine this is unforgivable and that's why the result must be reversed the election of this prime minister was a unique process that broke with the basic conviction of the c.d.u. and also of mine namely that no majorities should be won with the help of the f.t.
10:03 am
this is a band day for democracy. chancellor merkel have to say something because she often repeated that promise that there would be no alliance between alternative for germany and her christie and christian democratic union. it's really seen as the big to boo in german politics to have anything to do with a day to try and use them to gain power really seen as something that. upsets a lot of people in the country of their has been a lot of upset both from politicians and from the public as they said in fact we saw large demonstrations across germany on wednesday evening again pro people protesting against what we've seen happening today new.
10:04 am
turns as one of the smallest states in the german federal republic but the rock that's being thrown in there and not poll has certainly cast ripples far afield christian linda who's the head of the free democratic party that thomas kennedy. belongs to at least for now. he has said he wants to see well his party's leadership being religious to mice in fact is called for a vote of confidence while speaking to party leadership while when it comes to the c.d.u.
10:05 am
themselves local representatives in the state of today and just seem unrepentant in fact they're saying they don't want to see new elections in the state it does look like that's the direction we're heading in at the moment but the c.d.u. they're saying they're not interested in having a new vote and really when you look at that it's hard to think that that would have been possible just a short while ago while angela merkel was head of the christian democratic union that there would be a local faction of the party that would be so publicly. moving against what head office is saying in fact the news that we've been getting in just the last few minutes is that there will be a meeting of christian democratic union top brass here in berlin on friday as they continue to discuss the fallout from what's going on in the state elections and thank our correspondent in berlin that peter on the phone with the update. ok this spring i guess now martin is member of the hamburg parliament for delinquent party
10:06 am
great to have you on martin. first of all this alliance of course the shock election appointment of thomas kemah rick what was the problem with this why such outrage. yes the problem is that the f.t.p. gained like 5 percent in new elections and all the letters of clearly fascist party in turin with the leader ok in turin the f.-u. is clearly fascist in germany and they are like nationalist in between nationalists really you rightwing of this and fascist during their early fascist and to lead the regional federal government and you elected through fascist time to recover chuckles so. i think it's good that the f.t.p. at least know took the consequences and set a new reaction. i'm
10:07 am
a bit more eager to see even regional don't follow this macro us well say that it shouldn't be possible and it is true and it is right that any government in germany is elected by. which to mention especially when we look at history it was touring in. the beginning of the nation national socialist movement and. if you can still have a modern exit which is likely lost the connection there i just want to ask you know is there a problem them with the with the system by by which kemet was appointed because. they entitled to to offer the support that they did to or they want it doesn't the system allow this was in this all legal and legitimate the appointment. it's not a question of legal it's a quest question of politics the next year and this year the year of course in the professional political system on the federal level you are professional you move
10:08 am
all and your think forward rich scenarios. and if you know that sooner you can happen that the e.f.t. . kind of trick tries to bring in. government religion to meet its own fascist politics you should do anything to him. took the election and the clear to him self for a promise he moves across a lot of our touring i think it was a mistake so it's a very let that. leader of the parliamentary room throw the flowers in front of its history to assure john when he read all once that government is dependent on fascist or says this is a scandal it's not that it's not politically possible it's if you want it and the f.t.p. and the cd more should be clear and say not only on the german light level but on
10:09 am
the fairly relentless well they are not willing to work for those forces if they are not really have a real problem where our country is going to less or greater responsibility on this own that terry groups and the alone not only the parliamentarians groups. and wanted to review. and again i just want to ask you a question about how democratic this was anglo-american said this was a bad day for democracy but wasn't a democrat wasn't it a democratic system that got cameron appointed so that not mean the something on the system i know you don't like the f.d.a. and the people might not like them but they are part of the political system the people are entitled to vote for them if they want so what's wrong is it the system or something else. it is let's say we have to put it in other words it we have a. democratic system inside of a couple to lists society and certain things are possible and that's it
10:10 am
and of course that can be reforms of that system but in itself the system is democratic but then if the parties like this un f.t.p. we have the same problem and i will sometimes that the do not. accept there are they do not put the us inside of the right wing side of the parliament. people see if he has a party which has ups poshest rare or other military and functionaries functionaries rooke together militant fascist people. this is very dangerous and some of our military and say that the angel comes from right and from left wing of the early right if you left them in the my party the link of your democratic socialists we have a worse system which is based on social equality on the human rights on dignity of man in center of life that is very important the if he has
10:11 am
a program that has an ideology. of exclusion of. other people. for example migrants all those who don't function in their own system ringback and this is a different and i don't know from history be no i just can't lead into all necessarily eat certain when the fascists are in power needs into destruction and into human rights i don't wish an end to war which can have or like consequence so and this knowledge of history is a big problem if see an f.t.p. take into account and set cross it. mr president is. the president is the elected. force of yes. afterwards maybe the oh the door to me.
10:12 am
do you do you start of the democratic system up you you know so it's not democrat or not. it was fascist insect not imposed is there for interrupting you really appreciate it i'm great to hear your views thanks so much martin dulce a member of the hamburg parliament from the link a party that. taking the politics in a blow to the democrats caucus votes from the u.s. state of iowa are still being calculated 2 days on following an error in an application recording election data it's stopped but location of the results just as key primaries are coming up twitter and you tube they've announced changes to the way that they fight doctored materials don't call to take a look at the tech giant's somewhat vague wording in the new rules. we all like a good many i know i do and that's why i'm here to warn you that they're potentially in danger because of twitter's new war on altered images and videos that might mislead voters we know that some tweets include many plated photos or
10:13 am
videos that can cost people harm today we're introducing a new rule and a label that will address and give people more context around this tweets one man satire is another man's trigger there's bound to be those who will find hilarious songs like this one unhealthy for political discourse i love it when you told me. what it is boiled its definition of so-called dr damages down to a few criteria editing of the contents composition changes in its visual or auditory information and anything that simulates real people but who actually gets to make the call on what does or doesn't harm is anyone's guess are these trump dog and rocky memes politically misleading maybe this one with bernie sanders is harmful a political satire well it's always bound to hurt someone's feelings but if you're
10:14 am
not on twitter don't think this isn't going to step on your toes you tube's got its own version of this new policy of the 2020 lection season kicks into high gear in the united states people who visit you tube to learn about the candidates and watch the election season unfolds over the last few years we've increased or if it's to make you tube. and information as well as an open platform for who flee political discourse you remember that video trumps supporters made portraying their president massacring the mainstream media and the church it was funny to them to the mainstream media while they were a bit offended the white house correspondents association says it is horrified by this and is calling on president trump to denounce the video c.b.s. has decided. not to show that video we can't show this video because it's so disgusting is extremely violent it is disturbing and those bad liberating videos could also be interpreted as politically misleading or probably only they think
10:15 am
a bug just quickly here. we need new babies out there think we need time to make new ones because the old ones just become so big twitter's netizens have already picked up on the controversy cause people harm what kind of his son is he is this i love how you used the word doctored because that's the elites attack on memes the left caught me on twitter oh yeah well now no one can make your bed in the names which may cause harm to the left we can read between the lines there would be no unapproved thought in the people's republic of twitter coverage it seems that without any ultimate authority to make the call on what is and isn't a violation so many decisions will be left to the rules vague wording who knows how internet freedom will fare as a result. of. a healthy girl who's been living in a moscow hospital her whole life is being handed over to social services the decision has been made by
10:16 am
a court after her parents failed to take her home for 5 years. this girl is 5 years old and she's had a bizarre sheltered life. this is the room where she lives it's not in a house or apartment and her relatives are not by her side it's an elite private hospital in central moscow and for her entire life she has never left his grounds for the wrestling machine or stress me or her up in washington. you. can be here with them but. the voice you're sharing is not her mother it's her nanny the mother has decided that her daughter is hopelessly ill and must be confined to a hospital. however
10:17 am
doctors say that the girl is perfectly healthy and there is no medical reason to keep her in the clinic although they have been unable to discharge her without parental consent one thing isn't it she doesn't know and yet in life but she's a good normal girl the girl's parents have paid the hospital huge sums of money almost $200000.00 a year to keep her there in the company of private nannies almost a year ago the parents stopped sending their payments but they still refused to take her home and a legal battle has been raging so the hospital convinced the parents to leave their child in the hospital all this time that's the logical conclusion the child has been hospital for 5 years the parents are not doctors they just paid the bills how reliable is information the child is healthy and there is no need for her to stay in hospital. on monday the corps delivered its verdict that injuries in the
10:18 am
parents are to be stripped of parental rights to the girl and she will be placed in the custody of child welfare services perhaps soon she will finally leave the confines of the hospital and see the world she has been drawing for all these years all the parents can appeal that decision but officials hope to eventually give the girl to her grandparents. more riot police have been dispatched to the greek island of lowe's bastardi growing protests by refugees this week officers fired tear gas as hundreds of migrants demanded better 'd living conditions in camps migrants of the overcrowded madia camp on the island have complained of appalling conditions 3000 person facility currently houses more than 6 times that number of asylum seekers residents also say there's a lack of electricity and water. for people who don't have a lot to do on the more you are very ill is this more you will get big problems in the jungle girl bit rubbish. all of the chilling the sick now.
10:19 am
almost. ready and in the years very about latins has been struggling to contain a growing number of refugee applications it's committed to relocate migrants from islands to the mainland and to speed up processing asylum claims but with just a few 100 relocated so far he says migration minister is vowing to step up the response i mean your school ugly says other e.u. member states have promised to do far more to help. i fortunately this behavior of the european union that abundance greece and italy with their fish is common. is unacceptable because according to previous agreements the the those emigrants and the richest blokes in greece should be. 2 to the other member states of the european union according to vocalisations but there are some
10:20 am
countries mainly the congress governed by the right wing governments they're not accepted even one refugee you know it's very simple when it comes to fight now sort of questions whether tortie pay your beds etc there are very strict but even just to come to the political questions to the show their human values the following days are there you're appearing here or there doing nothing. coming up i'm going to put school if he wasting time in the country will be back with more on the story after this prank. what politicians do. put themselves on the line. they get accepted or rejected.
10:21 am
so when you want to express. some want to it's. actually going to be close it's like the 4 korean people. i'm interested in the lives of our. place should. china chose to build their economy in such a way as that spawn the crisis of the problem by iris and for that there. as an economic analyst. the u.s. could inherit a benefit that economic similarly the us build its economy in a way that other kind of extra maladies that are highly detrimental to the us.
10:22 am
back to the united states imported more oil from russia than from mexico and saudi arabia at the end of last year that's according to official us government data for the month of october by exporting some 21000 barrels russia moved into the role of 2nd largest exporter to the states only beaten by canada we scrapped up spot in fact the year on year american spending on russian oil almost doubled between the 1st half of 2018 and 19. and washington has been imposing restrictive sanctions on the oil sectors in venezuela and around and this is led to a shortage of a specific type of crude with russia making the short form but while the u.s. spends billions annually on russian oil it also criticizes other countries for depending on moscow's energy exports. durban is totally controlled by russian because they were getting from 60 to 70 percent of their energy from russia and a new pipeline this pipeline if completed would make europe even more dependent on
10:23 am
russian energy would generate billions of dollars for putin billions of dollars that would fund russian military aggression. we don't want your energy supplies to be defended. ok let's discuss this now with. international oil economist great to have you on the 1st of all we here off to washington criticizing quite severely other countries for being dependence on russian energy supplies surprising to hear that america themselves buying russian oil. well russia not only has many years to overcome the adverse impact of u.s. sanctions against it but at the same time it has benefited old soul from the u.s.
10:24 am
sanctions on iran and venezuela the proof is that russian economy a good 2.5 per cent last year and to be for it to grow at 2 percent that's means that the sanctions have no buy whatsoever now against russia furthermore russia has bought that it trade agreement with iran it buys iranian crude oil and baze it back by providing manufactured goods and may be weapons about to russia has to send the out on an oil and i think turkey is one of the buy out it's there out of the world including india as well in the vines wella russia. russia a few billions of dollars in loans so russia has aggravated to buy or to kick
10:25 am
villains when an oil sell it out on the world and turn it on a more tickets as payment for its loans and pay back. what is left. the ones will annoy and is similar out of thought i shun or in in many ways and that's why the americans have been keen on buying even the venezuelan on oil which russia is a fighting as as an ally that they have to the americans plus the euro. russian oil. there's been a lot said about. fracking in the us and the us ability to live off a certain oil and gas doesn't mean that the us isn't self-sufficient the need to be importing oil from abroad. the united states will never be self-sufficient
10:26 am
now or ever they claim they have been producing it $12000000.00 barrels a day which according to my calculation it is less than $9000000.00 because there are inclusions which are like liquid gases which done qualify as well and they are not sold as crude saw as uming they're out of producing 12000000 america consumes 21000000 barrels of oil a day this means even with their over exaggerated figures they still have to import between 8 and 9000000 barrels a day so the talk by the us information in energy information administration that and medicare will be a net oil exporter of crude and products is flawed and is wrong
10:27 am
but to solve it thanks so much talk to mum the solomon international oil economist my guest thank you. and finally this hour thousands of tons of european waste in sports schools provoking a massive public outcry the embrace residents have been staging process some of even taken the issue to court. actually i'll show you the smile is the worst thing we can smell it a kilometer away because landfill i have a daughter who lives close by in some bearable trouble to give us it's impossible to be outside it's awful we can't even drink the water it's contaminated and. that's a wind came we found out that's in portugal the waste management fee for landfills
10:28 am
was set at $10.00 euros per ton one of the newer of the average is 80 euros you don't have to be an expert to understand that there's a huge economic opportunity to attract rubbish to portugal transforming our country into a kind of dustbin for industrial waste. stream insofar as we're asking for the closure of the landfill because it is located 100 meters from a vocational college it is too close to the houses to therefore it does not respect legal limits and it is impossible to live like this. appreciate staying with r.t. join me for updates on our top stories in half an hour.
