a month they've lost a 3rd of their territory so you're going to stand why turkey which fled which paid armed and trained those rebels as outraged at the gun is beside himself he needs to vent strike out. the syrian regime as well as russian forces and iran by militants and sing with it and live it continuously attacking civilians committing massacres a kurd in syria might find strange of the guns concern for civilian casualties but russia took those accusations seriously pointing out rebels had launched ceaseless drone attacks on the russian base violated the cease fire again and again and again al-qaeda linked jihad its control 90 percent of and who turkey despite promising to do so hadn't been able to separate from moderate rebels the statements made by
7:03 pm
turkish representatives about alleged russian military attacks on civilians in the edward discolorations zone are false the real reason for the crisis and ad lib unfortunately is the turkish colleagues have failed to fulfill their obligations to separate the moderate opposition militants from the terrorists in these areas but every gun appears death ended mute to his own faults instead of explanation he's flooding it live with troops with tanks with artillery vowing lesion for anyone who dares shoot at them. we determined to drive back syrian regime forces from our observation post 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 and egging it all on is washington apparently they've forgiven ever the gun

for his little crusade against syrian kurds and have lifted their sanctions on turkish officials involved in attacking kurds they went further saying they stand with their god as he invades a sovereign state 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 there are now 4 nuclear powers engaged in syria 5 if you count israel and they're fighting on different sides the danger of escalation is colossal that happened today when an american convoy drove into a village where they weren't welcome. but this is our car village the americans came in and faced resistance from the villages people who threw stones at them so the americans answered with bullets. a young man was killed and 2
7:05 pm
were injured a 14 year old youngster killed to add insult to injury the pentagon in a statement referred to the villages as a pro acid militia and accuse the villagers of occupying the village they live in also the american soldier who apparently scratched himself as fide no need to worry he literally separately tweeted about that so there you go an ugly day in our glee war and as things stand liable to get a whole lot uglier still. we discussed the issue with executive editor of 20. patrick henningsen heaven is that tacky is not abiding by previous agreements turkey has not upheld its obligations not on the saatchi agreement but also on the astonished greenman on the saatchi agreement the deescalation zones are not going to work if turkey doesn't. maintain its side of the bargain and in order to
7:06 pm
separate the militants supposedly from the regular moderate rebels we know in reality that there is no difference really between those 2 so that part of the agreement is neither here nor there but the because of this there's no way to have the escalation zones on the a stunner agreement search if you remember back in the fall of 28 teen there were a number of things agreed and one of the key things was that turkey would assist in the liberation of the international road to damascus to aleppo road where the the m 5 highway to turkey has never done that and the reason none of these agreements are working is because actually turkey appears to be pursuing a parallel agenda and as long as it's doing that there's no way that they're going to meet those obligations and therefore the situation will become dysfunctional very quickly. pam politics italy senate has voted to send
7:07 pm
5 proud formentera minister. to trial over charges of holding a migrant seat he was elected actually to power on his necke party's platform our europe correspondent peter out of a has the details. well the italian senate has voted to revoke. his ministerial immunity from prosecution that will see him stand trial later this year charges of having illegally detained migrants on a boat last year after they tried to cross the mediterranean into italy if he's convicted there he could face up to 15 years in jail well this particular incident relates back to what happened in july of 2019 when the italian coast guard vehicle the italian coast guard vessel the betty picked up around 140 people who were crossing the mediterranean from libya to ward italy some of those on board needed
7:08 pm
immediate medical attention that left 116 on board the coast guard vessel they were kept there for days at the express orders of mr salvini salvini said that they would remain on board the ship until. the e.u. nations came into and said that they would take the people on board now what prosecutors are saying is that material salvini acted unilaterally that he willfully refused and ignored requests from. the italian prime minister to allow this coast guard ship into an italian port. had long said that he was fighting against immigration of fighting against migration into italy that he wanted to sure up italy's borders he felt this italy was being used as a soft touch by the rest of the e.u.
7:09 pm
when it came to issues of migration and immigration. he did say that he would face his day in court as he put it like a man saying that what he did he did for italy and suggesting that he would have done it again if he got the chance. i feel is my duty to the country italian people and to my children i want to be proud of what it is to hold my head high our constitution says that protecting our homeland is a sacred duty for italian citizens as a minister as a man as an italian fighting people traffic is defending our borders and security defending the pride and dignity of my country protecting italians from all the illegal migrants in the country is not a right but a duty for me. well along with greece italy has been at the front line of europe's migration crisis the 1st port of call for many desperate people making that incredibly dangerous crossing over the mediterranean.
7:10 pm
oh it's not over for salvini when it comes to the removal of his ministerial immunity later this month he'll face another vote relating to another incident from last year this time in august where he refused to allow the migrant vessel open arms to dock at an italian port but we are hearing from giuseppe conti the italian prime minister is that at the time he describes as being obsessed with stopping migrants from arriving in italy so much definitely seeing the inside of a courtroom on charges relating to detaining migrants all one count it may well be 2 counts by the end of this month. in neighboring greece the mike and crisis has
7:11 pm
become a battleground between authorities and operate as organizations have been accused of inciting hatred and violence between locals and 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 the last boss has been a constant feed of protest since camps were stopped to handle that margaret influx large rallies have often violence in fact last week police were called into action to spur crowds and we asked local residents who agree with the government's stance that ensures a few things actuation. but like your room. we all know what n.g.o.s are
7:12 pm
about they're behind this bad situation in our village we can understand the migrants we cannot leave just watching them killing our animals and setting fire to the fields in the village destroying the olive trees that we've had here for years and years. now. 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. why is a bit about the biggest makeshift camp in question on the island of course it was originally built to host a maximum of 3000 migrants the number of people currently being kept that is 6 times higher with little or no access to health care the un has called for action stressing the camp should be moving some of the residents out meanwhile the bigger picture of the refugee crisis all across greece a country that's been on the front line for years is deepening last year it was estimated that $74000.00 migrants we excrete shores more than half of them remain
7:13 pm
in makeshift camps scattered across various locations now greece doesn't see an end in sight with the country expecting up to $100000.00 more suydam seekers in the coming year we have some regional and local officials in an area heavily affected by the crisis they said that concerns about some of the humanitarian activity going on there. we have about 450 n.g.o.s act 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 people but also some of them are really very obscure and we don't know where they coming from how they deal with the money where they receive money from how they spend the money so we have been asking the government to act strictly and right to control all the secretary to solve this and this government has by staying in the parliament
7:14 pm
a few days ago according to its there will be a strict control of the indios a part of 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. r.t. has also several n.g.o.s to comment on the situation will update you on any response we get. still i had the world health organization as the media not to overhype the dangers surrounding new coronavirus at the same time chinese communities report increased that if they can start off the shelf break.
7:15 pm
join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure when i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. the holder doctrine eric holder former attorney general under obama this is the idea that banks are systemically important they can't be prosecuted because this would be a danger to the society as a whole but what's remarkable is that this idea has bled over into other industries so now boeing has a major scandal on its hands and it's claiming that a systemic lay important in the law doesn't apply to us other agricultural companies are saying now we're systemically important we're above the law now that is leading to beyond a kleptocracy this becoming i think it's a cracker stock or c. is the right word it's ruled by the least qualified are now in charge of running the economy and results obviously catastrophic.
7:16 pm
while the health organization is a lodging the media not to cause hysteria surrounding the create a virus outbreak it's off to reports a mug's citing a medical expert from hong kong warning that maybe 2 thoughts off the walls population could be a whisker of contracting the disease. some concerning instances of only war transmission from people with no travel history to china could be the spark that becomes a bigger fire but for no it's only a spark or objective remains containment coronavirus which has now been named covert 19 and has
7:17 pm
a mortality rate of 2 percent we can compare that number to the sols epidemic in 2003 and all that killed 10 percent of those who caught it animal reset health emergency in africa the abode of virus was also much more deadly than the corona virus all that said though against the backdrop of panic and exaggerated reports people of asian descent are increasingly becoming the target of racist abuse all across the globe over coronaviruses so we asked people in london's chinatown if they'd noticed a change in attitude. terrible loss we feel. sadness and sorrow but i don't think people should be targeted or paid off because. we put in people into captivity in a box and think it's a dangerous way of thinking 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
7:18 pm
and people on the streets they say it's plain and simple xenophobia the oldest chinese community group in chinatown has been handling the backlash against the corona virus and the fear factor is clear. i mean. what about your personal experience i think it was last thursday i was to train to work a normal guess what happened. beside me and i thought 1st was the. mother because we were standing normally. sit on the part of the day i was going to stop. because i'm trying these and people think oh i mean he be a potential carrier. what kind of reaction have you had from own members of your community people just absurd to suppose for young children because i. didn't hear a lot of complaining from the parents the children got picked up the.
7:19 pm
children just don't understand that student here hear from their own parents when the coast school really see chinese students or young children these are so the new you because you might have for virus education for important the lawless of important people understand that. the. transport and the global problem here so are the one thing the people with the thing that's just because you're trying to or your piece of chinese your 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 to think the moment like something like this happens like there's a virus it just allows people to say 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 yeah i feel like it's just
7:20 pm
a very boring time right now for the chinese people i feel like using the disease. the way to be seen from it is just terrible. you know if it was summer from the usa i don't think people treat people americans coming over the same way as they are treated chinese people and chinese students in central crazy i mean are we you can see that we here the 1st 2 cases chinese today under english 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 another wave of racism despite there 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. r.t. . us tariffs are weighing heavy on one of france's most iconic

7:22 pm
tariffs of already hit somewhere in winemakers so hard that they've cut jobs in some of even had to go into bankruptcy as a result of this now that tax was imposed by the u.s. following a decision by the world trade organization last year that the e.u. had in the given subsidies to the plane maker airbus and then those taxes were slapped on a range of european products but it really seems to be that the french wine makers are the ones that are suffering it is now essential that the government provide concrete responses to the requests made by our sector for 4 months in particular through the creation of an emergency compensation fund of $300000000.00 euros they want that money to cover the losses from their losses so far but also to cover any tax increases the wind exporters say this was a political decision to give those subsidies to airbus and they've been caught in the middle of something that has nothing to do with them and they're even more concerned that they could be even further tax hikes around the corner this is over
7:23 pm
the dispute between the u.s. and france over the so-called gas taxes a tax on digital giants so last month president machen try to ease the pain and said you know what we are talking with us and we are going to look for a solution to this. great discussion with donald trump on digital tax we will work together on a good agreement to avoid tariff escalation well that is not easing concerns because there is a suggestion that that 25 percent tax could be raised all the way up to 100 percent and that many say would completely decimate the industry here now we are expecting an announcement in regards to that from the u.s. later this week that do watch this space on that but many say even if that's avoided that and there is an agreement the damage has already been done and that's because french products of already lost shelf space in the u.s. market that was

over until that know it's been bust. 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.
