7:01 am
the front line of that migrant crisis. we all know what about behind this plant situation. we know they do this for money. and there's hysteria over the coronavirus outbreaks paix people of asian descent find themselves now on the receiving end of racism over it globally. hi good afternoon life marty's world news h.q. here in moscow this wednesday 12th of february it's kevin are with you hope you stick around to for the next 30 minutes to take you through the news we got lined up for you today starting with this the palestinian president has formally rejected on trump's middle east peace plan aimed at resolving the israel palestine conflict it was described at the u.n. security council as a reward for occupation and looking at the past became much of a metaphorical indeed about it where it leaves his state sovereignty. this is the
7:02 am
state that they will give us which is like swiss cheese which of you will accept such a state. palestinian leader mahmoud abbas spoke before the 15 member body that leans the united nations and made his case about why palestine is rejecting the proposal put forward by the white house and israel take a listen i have come to you to call for a just peace on behalf of the palestinians that is all i have come to you today to reaffirm the palestinian position which rejects the israeli american proposal this is supported by the results of meetings of the arab league the organization of islamic cooperation and the african union they have all concluded that this plan must be completely rejected that's in addition to statements by the e.u. russia china japan and others now abbas did mention he was open to negotiations with israel as long as the negotiations were sponsored by what is referred to as the international quartet the united states the un russia and the european union
7:03 am
now the israeli representative got up and spoke and indicated that israel feels that in the past negotiations with palestinians have been unsuccessful here's what we heard from the israeli representative president abbas few the to be plugged. in the few that is to negotiate either not interested in finding a. to the conflict. with the president. let's not beat around the bush progress toward peace would not be made of longer than the musical vision. ality only when he steps down. in the move forward already on the very day when this u.n. security council meeting was taking place there were clashes taking place on the west bank between palestinians and israeli security forces near the palestinian city of ramallah there was conflict at this point there were jewish settlements
7:04 am
there were tear gas dispersed against palestinian protesters rocks were thrown quite heated and intense exchange a lot of injuries took place it seems that this proposed peace plan is not leading to peace and stability is not just palestinians who seem to be unhappy with the so-called deal of the century it's proving divisive in the e.u. to the books foreign policy chief voiced his skepticism over traumas plan and its ability to end the long lasting conflict in the middle east while stating too that the majority of the unions members don't consider the plan to be a good starting point. their proposals table 2 weeks ago clearly challenges international law. and it is difficult to see how this initiative can bring both parties back to the table well the u.s. plan would formalize its recognition of jerusalem as israel's undivided capital and
7:05 am
claims to double palestine territory it also offers $50000000000.00 worth of investment in the new state we heard from one senior political advisor to president about susan convinced about it although in says that they're being offered in fact next to nothing. this is not a deal this is an attempt to liquidate the palestinian problem give it a big part of our land in the west bank to israel for peace make israel responsible force our security whatever. and share with us. some ask and take over all of the east jerusalem and stop giving any rights to the refugees there is nothing to offer that the really focused our best to accept in the security council he was very clear. i want peace based on a 2 state solution i want to negotiate directly with israel not through america i want the quartet which includes russia and the rubin union and the united nations and
7:06 am
the united states but i will not submit to be knighted states and make it the sole owner of this peace process because it is totally biased with israelis. increase more of the microprocessor and the issues over it's become a battleground between authorities and n.g.o.s operating there as organizations have been accused now of inciting hatred and violence between locals and those refugees. there is a galaxy of dodgy n.g.o.s operating alongside a network of doctors lawyers and other people making a mint out of the human misery of these people they are leeches and these practices must end all of this contributes to illegal migration the island of layers pour softly in the news over this it's been
7:07 am
a constant scene of protests since camps were established to handle the migrant influx large rallies of often turn violent just last week police were called into action to disperse crowds we asked local residents there who agree with the government's stance that n.g.o.s are fueling the situation. room we all know what about their behind this bad situation our village we can understand the migrants but we cannot leave just watching them killing our animals setting fire to the fields in the village destroying all the trees that we had here for years and years and have enough there your you but yes the ngos are behind this bad situation we know they do this for money of course they are not all the same it well here's a bit more detail about the biggest makeshift camp in question on the island of those boxes originally built ost a maximum of 3000 migrants but the number of people currently being kept there is 6 times higher with little or no access to health care the un is called road into action stressing the camp should be moving some of those residents out at least by
7:08 am
now meantime the bigger picture the refugee crisis across greece the whole country it's but a frontline of it for years and the problem is deepening last year it was estimated that $74000.00 migrants reached greek shores more than half of them remain in makeshift camps scattered across various locations greece doesn't see any end in sight either with the country expecting up to 100000 more asylum seekers in the coming year we heard from regional and local officials in an area heavily affected by the crisis they share their concerns about some of the humanitarian activity that's happening there. we have about 450 indios active in and around the country many of them are very active on the islands where the immigration problem exists and some of them are doing a very good job with the help of the our government to help the people but also some of them are really very obscure and ceo's we don't know where they're coming from how they deal with the money where they receive money from how they spend the
7:09 am
money so we have been asking the government to act strictly and to right to control all the sex abuse of this and this government has passed the new law in the parliament a few days ago according to which there will be a strict control of the indios. my personal opinion is that everybody knows we have n.g.o.s that help with the situation and others that help the migrants to protest there are also religious n.g.o.s who are helping by giving food to poor and vulnerable people i don't have evidence to prove that they are behind any negative actions but i am sure that there is more here than meets the eye. footnote to their 2nd tell you artie's are several n.g.o.s to comment on the situation when they get back to us and let you know what i've got to say on it. the story turkey's president threaten to mediate retaliation against syrian government forces if damascus doesn't scale back its offensive against rebel held it province. also
7:10 am
suggested that this military may attempt to dislodge the syrian army from parts of the stricken region where turkey has got observation post more or less and the developments today goes down across it fighting talk from president hu on an ego yes indeed and you can clearly see how comfortable he feels in another country in syria in fact he feels so hold me that he has told syrians to effectively get out of syria. we are determined to drive back syrian regime forces from our observation posts by the end of february we will do whatever is necessary both on the ground and in the air without any hesitation and without any delay. or again it's like it's not the president of turkey speaking but the assault on available something but he didn't he didn't stop there you know because he had some strong words too we had some other strong words today. why is he taking this why is he threatening in effect as you say another country well
7:11 am
absolutely well he does have some grounds because turkish troops have been killed in multiple on multiple occasions and they blame the syrian arab army for this but also again it wasn't just about syria and damascus and the syrian army it was also about russia that got into the crosshairs of the want to rush rick. the syrian regime as well as russian forces in the iran backed militants. are continuously attacking civilians committing massacres. so he's talking about civilians being hit but there are some other videos and you know footage and evidence coming out of syria and out of for instance we can see in one of the videos that we can show you right now there's a helicopter that is that has been downed by the blast so you know civil and
7:12 am
peaceful members and citizens of it live and in fact according to the russian to the to russia's president's spokesman. he's essentially turkey failed to make a clear division between the more radical jihadists and those who are ready to talk with the syrian government and move the peace process forward through talks also according to also according to sergei lavrov essentially this is this is the key of the problem and that more radical groups in syria they are using civilians as human shields. as we discussed tough talk going to turkish. about a loop and the reason for the escalation the reason is the militants control totally or nearly totally by just how all nusra and i at ariel sharon which al nusra has turned into in uses as a cover constantly bring this cease fire with the cease fire arrangements create
7:13 am
pressure corridors for noncombatants so they can leave the combat zone by the way the terrorists keep striking those corridors hindering the departure of peaceful civilians trying to retain them as human shields so you heard human shields and that is a tactic that has been internationally recognized as something that only a terrorist would do and in fact the this recent escalation has already led to president reagan talking to his russian counterpart vladimir putin and apparently as a result of that conversation the turkey's foreign minister. is coming to moscow in the imminent future very very soon apparently so there clearly clearly they will be discussing this recent escalation so it will not show the dialogue continues but there is tough talk coming from turkey about what's going to happen if any more of the troops shot and killed at these observation posts how much support has turkey
7:14 am
got though internationally for this tough talk well i think of another country that likes to you know intervene into foreign country's affairs especially when it comes to military action and you guessed it that's the united states obviously given that the relations between washington and ankara have been quite rocky lately they i'm pretty sure that in the white house they took these words from president reagan with joy that his eye is directed at russia now so and they are already sending their man to ankara to well apparently try and get behind the steering wheel of this conflict. my condolences to the families of the soldiers killed in yesterday's attack in the ongoing assaults by the assad regime and russia must stop i've sent jim jefferies to ankara to coordinate steps to respond to this destabilizing attack we stand by our nato ally. well in fact president irgens remarks and harsh words
7:15 am
directed at russia they came after this statement by mike pompei oh so but then again he called putin and he's sending his foreign minister to moscow so it looks like that's still moscow and ankara russia and turkey that they are ready to talk and they're showing that probably they don't need to really anybody else well except for the syrian government who was to try and get this peace process back on track laura your focus is going to if it goes down off the. full health organizations urging the media not to cause hysteria surrounding the coronavirus breaks after reports of merge no citing a medical expert from hong kong warning that maybe 2 thirds of the world's population could be at risk of contracting the disease some concerning instances of transmission from people with no travel history to china could be the spark that becomes a bigger fire but for no it's only
7:16 am
a spark object to remains containment well those scientists have know given the current virus a name the say this talk of fusion they've called it covert 19 it has a mortality rate of 2 percent and we can compare that then to the sars epidemic back in 2003 remember the panic over that that killed 10 percent of all those have caught it a more recent health emergency in africa the a bowl a virus was also much more deadly than the corona virus appall there in context but all that said against the backdrop of power they can exaggerated reports people of asian descent are increasingly becoming the target of racist abuse across the globe over coronavirus fears we went to london's chinatown to see if they've noticed a change in attitude lately. terrible loss we feel. sadness and sorrow but i don't think people should be targeted or hated on.
7:17 am
or in people into captivity in a box and. this is chinatown in the center of london it's going to be one of the most popular destinations by locals and tourists alike but today as you can see it's very quiet and the reason for that well after talking to locals and people on the streets they say it's plain and simple xenophobia the elders chinese community creep in chinatown has been handling the backlash against the coronavirus and the fear factor is clear. what about your personal experiences i think it was last thursday i was to train to work as normal guess what happened is also beside me and i thought 1st was the matter because we were standing normally. sit on the part of the day. because i'm trying these and people think oh i mean he be
7:18 am
a potential carrier. what kind of reaction have you had from own members of your community a lot of people just absurd to suppose for young children because i. hear a lot of complaining from the parents the children got picked up the. children just don't understand that student here hear from their own parents when the call school or when it's each other's student or young children these are so the year you because you might have a virus education for important laws of important people understand that. the. transport and the global problem here so are the one thing the people with the thing that just because you're trying to or you're peter chinese you're prudence who carries. the way that we've documented the things that go on in the eastern world has always it's always been told like that anyway it's always been around a think the moment that something like this happens like there's
7:19 am
a virus it just allows people to see the things that they're actually have been fed for a very long time are probably out that they harbor they have these feelings anyway and it just gives people a platform to say what they want because this fear and here i feel like it's just a very horrible hard time right now for the chinese people i feel like using the disease. way to be easier for this is just terrible. if it was someone from the usa i don't think people treat people americans coming over the same way as they are treating chinese people and chinese students etc i mean i mean you can see that report and you see here the 1st 2 cases chinese today are the cases in which people come from singapore so you can see that. you could be and human being can be can be carriers we have seen this before and now the coronavirus has instigated and they're the wave of racism despite there
7:20 am
being only a small number of cases confirmed in the u.k. and there's no doubt that the effect on the british chinese community has had huge implications. the times of london is china's coming up after the break marks the 41st anniversary of the islamic revolution and a day mixed with celebration and mass protests it's ahead. seemed wrong. but old rules just told. me to get to shape out just because to educate and in. equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground.
7:21 am
we know in psychology that the more people are told that they can't or shouldn't do something whether it's sexual or otherwise the more it makes them want to do it so trying new things violating taboos are some of the most common and pervasive elements in our sexual fantasies. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. again thousands of iranians have turned for 90 u.s. rally in the capital tehran 3 comes as the country the 41st anniversary of the
7:22 am
islamic revolution on tuesday as tensions continue to spiral with the united states is a look back at how the republic was molded by events in the late 1970 s. . u.s. around relations hit a new low course in early january after the top rating commander custom silly money was killed in that american air strike in baghdad less than a week after vat's ran retaliated with missile attacks against u.s. bases in iraq addressing arabians during the rally president rouhani struck
7:23 am
a defiant tone. oh my god that he was actually in the past 2 years i'm. has put so much pressure on our beloved people and all of our treat all of our exports all of our imports and all of the countries needs to exhaust the patience of our people the americans did not understand the greatness of the iranian people the united states believes it is facing 41 years of civilization no the americans are facing thousands of years of rain civilization. we discussed washington's possible goals then with a number of experts notice whether or not there's any hope for the escalation is the u.s. ramps up the pressure on terror. do you see a chance here for iran to mend relations with the united states with europe or things through improvement terms of foreign policy or all things just going to get tough for us things go on if the united states continues down this path that they will get nowhere with iran if they think that they can overthrow their samik
7:24 am
proposed iran they are deeply misguided i think the american people are ill informed about the reality because the media in the united states is controlled by their leaders and those are leads have their own interests as well as talking points directly from ayatollah khamenei but i see a bright future for you ryan i think you take it's hard for all of the deposed or isn't. i see they are a mystery with the united states is it because of the poles or maybe they don't really like that or as it is. i don't think so now where you try to treat people are flocking to. the united states to america populating terribly already i don't suppose nobody really wants to go and live in iran iran is a is a viable nation state it has a legitimate role to play in the region we can debate whether or not this is malign or otherwise but it is a legitimate role just like any nation has a legitimate role the problem isn't iran per se the problem is the united states
7:25 am
the united states needs to learn how to deal with with iran i think it's a miscalculation in the united states to even imagine that iran is in any way or form unstable iran has been able to stand firm despite sanctions despite the fact that the united states is trying to strangle the iranian economy it's a tension is to make ordinary people suffer i think president trouble stated very clearly in the policy is that iran will not develop. a nuclear program and he will do everything he can to stop the policy is not regime change but rather a regime. for the current regime of kamini to change course and stop destabilizing its neighbors and offer you know a brighter future for the people of iran it was the united states that withdrew from the. iran nuclear agreement not iran what iran has been doing since the
7:26 am
american withdrawal is exercising exercising its rights in accordance with the the agreement to back off of its commitments so long as one party or multiple parties are not in compliance. but as well a self-proclaimed president received ceremonious welcome in caracas on choose death returning from a 3 week international one guy dole was met by angry crowds at the country's biggest airport who held abuse at him and then queues to move exacerbate an economic crisis to take is son noah was there. no let off. it wasn't easy for positionally to one guy do it to return to venezuela he passed border control at the international airport without any problem but he was confronted by airline workers from the company which was sanctioned after quite aust trip to the u.s. . we are 2000 people and we are defending our families. he just goes
