that someone who is so strongly with an organization those are so grave we should be reordered what's the shouldn't say the cancel this one carol. had to. get this feeling that this situation exists in the will among developed countries at this point in tar meanwhile the guardian newspaper has published a feature article on plans to tackle media repression by the british special envoy on press freedom clooney however one can detail has been emitted clean these links to julian a sandwich and his case in particular despite the fact is one of the highest profile cases of the journalists being persecuted in the country the guardian's article focused on clooney plan she proposed to sanction although to participate in jailing german this for their work including ministers and prosecutors something that hasn't happened in a sound case the article didn't even mention that clooney was actually songes

lawyer during the swedish extradition proceeding is against him in 2015 the mission has directed plenty of anger towards the guardian. congratulations are in order to the guardian's patrick wintour who's managed to write a whole article on global media suppression without mentioning the phrase julian assange the foreign office will no doubt continue to be delighted. the u.k. currently has a jewel in our sun she looked up at the because over the years because he exposed war crimes the garden publishes an article on press freedom failing to mention this unbelievably and unforgivably no mention of julian a science journalist broadcast neil clark believes that the government doesn't want to talk about the assigned cases it is shameful. when to the journalist apparently apparently we not 100 percent sure but apparently didn't see the need to actually brace the raise the case of the most famous persecuted journalist in this

interview about the persecution of pure this it's a massive elephant in the room it's quite extraordinary how anybody could write an article about the persecution of journalists without making judyth a search for the establishment this whole case now is a big embarrassment if you're a staunch it's either someone who could be attacked or to be ignored his rights to be ignored away that you're talking about in this context press 1st if the journalist is another person is another person you know journalist being persecuted or let's talk about other cultures official enemy countries act that's fine but not what we actually got the guy just a few miles away down the road for this back at the jail for doing journalism. vulnerable british women who'd been repeatedly sex trafficked by drug gangs mr knight support from the british government and to compelled by the high court the shocking revelation comes despite the u.k.

claiming it does lead the way in the fight against forced labor and their cheetah reports. the k claims to be a world leader when it comes to fighting modern slavery and people trafficking yet if you take the story of this 22 year old woman that seems far from the case. she was 1st registered as a victim of sex trafficking in 2019 and a professional should have been provided with safe refuge yet the home office failed to find any it's shocking really. it's completely unacceptable that someone so vulnerable and someone so at risk every trafficking was not provided with the

support to macc accommodation that they so desperately needed with no support from the government this young woman was drawn into a vicious circle once again it was in june 2019 that the home office made a decision that a crime is a potential victim of trafficking now that's when the legal obligation to provide her with adequate support and assistance 1st arose and the home office was underage duty to protect her. this is in spite of the fact that she has contacts mental health health problems people here are. often do because because of their experience so irrespective of that fact yes they were under a duty to support her but when the woman was ready to be discharged from the mental facility the home office claimed her mental state meant there was absolutely no west suitable to house her from the time when the. decision was made that she was a potential victim of trafficking up until january 2020 and the home was where

where there is at least 3 instances agreed trafficking for the perp and sexual exploitation and made that case into the high court but time a crime is being released to homelessness you've been discharged from hospital and the judge ordered that they must report it would come to a shoot until further order officials have been vague to say the least in their comments on the case our significant reforms of the national referral the hedonism for victims of modern slavery such as the introduction of new single component or pharmacy are the launch of a digital referral form as sure victims get the support they need more quickly there's been constant criticism that all the government talk on ending modern day slavery does not match in practice accusations that funding and support for victims are clearly inadequate figures from 29000 confirmed that more than 2000 survivors of modern day slavery were given how. thing and specialist support but it's not enough according to campaigners who claim that a lack of safe and specialised accommodation is in fact leaving many of the victims

traumatized isolated and vulnerable to retry flicking the dearer tutor r.t. . canada's prime minister justin trudeau has summoned an emergency meeting of his ministers after protesters shut down the rail routes across the country the demonstrators want to stop a vast proposed gas pipeline over indigenous territory with more details has drawn quarter. railways out of commission reports a backlog marches on the streets transportation across canada has been shut down by protests over a near 700 kilometer long gas pipeline and judging by the most recent actions there seems to be little hope for a swift resolution i. i . i.

i i. at 1st a number of indigenous councils came to an agreement with the company coastal gas link to build a $6600000000.00 gas pipeline that would run through indigenous lands but the chiefs of a small 1st nation called the what sioux wetton tribe came out against its construction and for that they were raided by the police but the police action seems to have backfired the white sweat movement not long after spread like wildfire across the country their blockades of canada's railways have begun to shut down trans national freight movement prime minister justin trudeau knows he's got a problem on his hands one that he thinks will be solved through dialogue we are

a country that recognizes the right to protest but we can learn the country of the rule of law and we will ensure that everything is done to resolve this through dialogue and constructive outcomes it doesn't take much for a problem like this to become a crisis though and trudeau probably knows that since he recently canceled a visit with caribbean leaders to convene an emergency meeting about the protests and. stead but this is just one page in canada's difficult history dealing with 1st nation reservations the gas company says the pipeline is safe and environmentally friendly but much of the native population and their supporters aren't buying it what they're saying is they have agreements with 20 indian i am council and 5 of the 6 which suit graham councils have signed up to agreements which they wouldn't have never signed a treaty with canada. they have aboriginal tyo edition as title to their land and they don't operate under the indian actor there are already terry traditional

government system there salmon bearing streams and other pristine force and this pipeline would go through that they're objecting to it which is why they proposed an alternative route really it is in an issue about corporate interest trumping indigenous rights in canada i mean coastal gas link the west so again as i understand it had proposed an alternative route for the pipeline the company said no because of the economic issues associated with changing the route but i think it's going to cost them more money if they continue the conflict and don't get a. lawyer in june the stimulus skara says that abandoning the pipeline project is the only way for the government to show respect to indigenous rights. these protests this is actually quite unusual by canadian standards when they begin to have an impact on the economic interests of large businesses in this country then that's an escalation of the fire that the prime minister is forced to deal with

it's very hard to see where there's a resolution here because frankly the only resolution that respects truly respects the rights of indigenous people is to put a stop to that pipeline project this is unseated territory the hereditary chiefs of the what's working people have not consented to this project and that is rightly given the historical abuses that have been horrible abuses that have been visited upon indigenous peoples in this country but i think you know we're hearing a lot of lip service as we have for many years from the corporate community in this country about their commitment to human rights environment but the reality is radically inconsistent with their rhetoric and it's time for us to recognize that at the governmental level it's not just fossil fuel companies that are facing increased scrutiny. packed because a german court has now ordered tests to stop clearing trees for its pain vehicle production site that is despite the electric car giant promising to quote replant an area 3 times the factory size need but it's

a victory for protest is he will not malden supposedly green companies if from what they claim to be. i feel to anyone who's considering low seats go back inside you know carlos germany

and sometimes true location. you're not allowed to cut trees you know that scale until you have a mission to this forest to industrial factory use and that seems to be what's what's you know what's happened here these trees will come big companies love to talk about being environmentally friendly because it's very good p.r. because they know that's what ordinary people and their customers like to hear and it's instances like this where you can find out what's behind those great woods you know when the deeds are quite different that it turns out that oh that company perhaps is not really so if it's a friend who steps not really interested in these issues. the mother of the russian

side of fraud suspect alexander vinick has asked the french president to ensure his son has the right to an impartial and objective hearing. but after an appeals court in paris ruled to keep her son in custody when explorers lodge their appeal last month when alexander was transferred to france from greece he was detained 3 years earlier on charges of cybercrime and illegal business operations since then russia france and the west of war for his extradition we talked of a nixon mother who says the situation her son now finds himself in is a complete mess just what she thought it to be a split deal the complete mess what is going on here it's not a trial i think it's a beautiful process a day before yesterday the older kid had a birthday alexander didn't call because he's not allowed to talk with his family but here they say it is in the interest of his security he can't communicate with his family with his mother his wife who's elipse who is living her last days with his children when i was leaving the kids beg me granny tell dad everything show him

how we are when will our father be back you know we are lying i lied to my daughter in law she doesn't know that she was transferred to france she doesn't remember dates months that's why i'm lying i keep saying we have no connection with him at the moment but who will have sume his defense team has vowed to fight on and try to make all future hearings public they claim his basic rights are being violated and explorer believes there is no basis to keep his client under arrest. in their own so there is no reason for him to remain in cost to do the prosecutor have always you can always do that no evidence exists against him this why he asks for adjournment so the investigation. is completely unreasonable to keep and then in custody what 31 months without evidence without concrete accusations without legal proceedings and without sentence we're asking to free alexander and moreover to

respect his rights as french authorities of oil in his freedom just as greek authorities do. washing r.t. since the u.s. secretary of state has taken a rare trip to africa and a bid to dislodge china's economic dominance there but his warm words to a page to be in stark contrast to washington's actions on the continent will have a look at that story of the state just off the break.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic developments only and. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. to sit down and talk. welcome back to the u.s.

secretary of state is in africa at the moment in a bid to win back business from china whose companies dominate the continent but. speech is that you stand in stark contrast to washington's recent actions in the region it's kind of mopping explains mike peo is on a goodwill tour of the african continent trying to convince nations that they have no better friend than the good old us of a couple that america will be by your side get a good relationship ability to believe those of us with natural gas right. down to the benefit of the american businesses are sure to leave sure this will bring our meeting i congratulated both the president and the foreign minister on the newly discovered energy reserves off the coast american firms like cosmos energy help britain baker years are all helping to develop these resources so that they benefit the senate senegalese people not foreign actors peo has been the us secretary of

state for some time however his interest in africa seems to be quite new but perhaps that's because his trip to africa isn't really about africa it's about competing with china it's tempting to accept easy money from places like china. but what good is it if it feeds corruption and undermines your rule of law but that ship has sailed china is already very well in bedded in africa it's the continent's largest trading partner not to mention the fact that beijing has been splashing cash on to development.

furthermore mike pompei it was timing seems to be a little bit off the travel ban has just been expanded to include several african countries so you're not welcome in america but me sure to give u.s. officials a hearty welcome not the most winning message. the government expresses his dismay at this unfriendly acts which runs counter to the administration's pronounced policy of constructive engagement to address past wrongs with west africa struggling to protect itself from terrorist groups the usa may have sealed its alliance with military aid however that military aid is being scaled back the usa is also reducing other support in the region. because we have spoken with the us about the need for that presence in the area we hope that the americans will continue to help us in security training and intelligence. also do you remember a certain leader who referred to african countries with some rather profane words

well there's still no apology on that there are 54 countries that make up the continent of africa 54 places president from considers to be countries as opposed to describe some immigrants coming from africa as coming from countries denies using such derogatory language and democratic senator who sat next to mr trump in the meetings insists that the president repeatedly used the wood to describe the countries now behind all the lights cameras handshakes and photo ops mike pompei oh really wants africans to believe that america is their best friend especially if they're trying to get close to china but i think. clearly quite concerned just like the united states concerned that the chinese have taken a massive lead across the uk and for now i know the chinese have already got hold in africa i think of mistrust the chinese worked with the chinese if you read the chinese and told access these access levels it was not because i because we're

fearful of the chinese or of the troops there it's because of because believe that they wanted to choose their own destiny. chose. which was not the united states for war and the u.s. was the you. it is trying to counter that for the us to want to compete with that right now i'm afraid their 10 years too late. palestinians have dismissed an invitation to attend an art of then held on his race settlements as insulting so they come to occupied territory too in the area where the occupation negates palestinian development through a network of checkpoints roadblocks and closed military zone. and then they tell us you can attend in a glows military area. the israeli military has given approval for up to 15000 people to attend the gathering in disputed parts of the west bank organizers say

politics has nothing to do with it it's enough an official version of the burning man event in the u.s. which prioritises quote radical inclusion among is guiding principles meaning that anybody can attend however palestinians who want to go to the west bank version will need to get approval from muse railyard me although it seems not many willing to attend the event at all. as palestinian citizens we are all against us except those who cooperate with your patient i don't agree with or support this normalise is the occupation and we want these released to leave our lands just like i said i will never take part because i'm not a traitor to my country and of course i'm against it they made this festival to provoke us so it would be dishonest for me to persist a place alongside such people this is an occupied holy land and all made of i reject this 1st of all i cannot participate in legitimizing the occupation troops so-called deal of the century in which to tell you i will never go and then i don't

advise anyone to girl. we did ask event organizers as well as the israeli army to comment on why west bank palestinians still need permission to attend will bring in any response we receive. victory mail is a new project launched by r.t. uniting those who went through the horrors of world war 2 with modern day generations through it you can send a letter to veterans of that war and tell them about how you feel about what they did one of them served in the arctic convoys transporting vital supplies to soviet russia and while he put his own life on the line he still feels that anybody else would have done the same. as in this side as song really guy was at so i'm churchill say it was one of the worst journeys in the world and. most respect for them.

did not even need to get and. and indeed so why as. well we say he summed up as i was stalin starving to death. and. i've been to a sarah a cemetery where they just mans of earth where they local wished i had and i just saw a bear with them then no. they just numbers. there

was $27000000.00 russians would during the war. and when they had their sacrifice and the sacrifice of days russian convoys that woke would never have been one the only regret is our dumb spite russian. you know. quite happy. to reply to any let says that you with the same. i mean just our pride there's a white face. well for many veterans monuments are places of healing in the muslim cause europe's tallest statue has been caught on film tried it in mr 85 meters high

its size still nothing close to demonstrating all the losses during that war it was built in 1907 to pay tribute to the heroes of the battle of stalingrad but is saved by many as a general symbol of the war. you're watching our senior national we'll be back with more news for you and the headlines now from. the nobility of our place to order the kind of good intentions of a teacher's go to our own christening to look and maybe even 40 years ago and have simply evaporated to the do not see the compressor of the 5.
