always in the water. there should be. protesters in central ukraine a convoy carrying 72 people evacuated from china over the corona virus outbreak. quarantine violence. president. lawmakers call for shock artist to be sent home to russia after he. faces a growing health crisis caused by vast quantities of electronic waste from the western world. the u.s. house speaker. europe against working with the. way but does china pose

a bigger spine threat the united states we asked people in new york. over to us. this is our international. have you with us as we recap the week's top stories. the president of ukraine. voiced his anger over the hostile reception given to evacuees returning from china over the corona virus outbreak riots broke out as a group of ukrainians were driven to a hospital and put in quarantine none of the passengers had tested positive the clashes left 9 police officers and one civilian injured.

you know we always say that ukraine is europe. it's something like made. unfortunately let's not forget that we. were fired from the chinese city of war where tens of thousands of people have been infected landed in the ukraine in sea of talk of on thursday and before that roadblocks were set up in other regions of the country as well following rumors of more quarantine facilities being set up and he's done quarter comments. say some new people moved into the neighborhood they came from the epicenter of the deadly coronavirus pandemic perhaps you'd be worried or angry but it be hard to match the anger brewing in ukraine to just that situation. for the past several days ukraine has seen violent clashes across the country

scores of policemen have been injured by locals throwing bricks riot police have been called in to disperse angry mobs and it's all because the ukrainian authorities tried to do a good deed for the international community they accepted with open arms a number of their countrymen and foreigners trying to flee by plane assuring the public the passengers were 100 percent coronavirus clean an important detail when ukraine itself has yet to see a case of the disease a quarantine zone was even set up at a health center in poltava just to be sure but the protesters did all they could to stop that plane from landing and when that failed they started blocking roads until riot police removed them by force.

the buses made it to their destination in the end but their unwelcome reception wasn't exactly what kiev expected with the movie just the sort of on the this is one of the greatest disappointments you know you know i'm disappointed because in the moral. of this this is a disgrace for the whole world to see i'm truly ashamed but ukraine's protesters don't seem to be up for a game of russian roulette with the coronavirus. a russian shock artist who has. rented asylum in france is now under investigation lawmakers are demanding to. be sent back to russia previously was earlier arrested for posting explicit videos the brought down an ally of president micron or discharged as we're. here at the pub lenski is a political refugee here in france but it seems even though he is too hot to handle with these latest allegations even members of my own party and are calling for him

to be sent back to russia if you get this guy out he's a political refugee he behaves like the 1st thing to do would be to put him on a plane streets of russia and he will see with mr putin if you can do this kind of crap this comes after the latest scandal involving pav lengthy this follows the dissemination of videos and photos on the internet last week of benjamin a key ally of the president back on his former spokesperson now linsky and his partner were taken by the police and they were questioned in regards to those videos questioned into invasion of privacy and broadcasting videos of a sexual nature without the permission of the person who is in those videos the interior minister here in france has said he should face the full weight of the law if it did you feel casting certain videos without the consent of the author or

subject to criminal sanctions in our country resulting in a substantial fine and 2 years imprisonment and these offenses must obviously be prosecuted it is a matter of respect for democratic rules and this is not the 1st time that pawlenty ski has been headline news here in france he was recently accused of brandishing a weapon a knife or to a new year's eve party and of injuring 2 of the party goers at that event further back he was also found guilty of setting light to the doors. the bank of france in the area in fact is currently serving a suspended sentence for a criminal act in france and that comes off to a series of stunts that he pulls in russia of a criminal nature. russia

it's sometimes difficult to be and. yes especially for one makes a political declaration out of his art that's the case of for that poverty and we already know and he's just been arrested for setting the door of the former k.g.b. building on fire. so it's not clear where the pov linsky will be sent back to russia chucked out of france or whether he will face the music here on those possible criminal charges what we do know is that his political asylum here has become an embarrassment to the french authorities. and major health crisis

is unfolding in ghana caused by electronic waste from the western world or cell phones tablets and computers are dumped in a vast landfill signed and burned releasing toxic chemicals known to cause diseases including cancer. don't you fall would be. more. noble for these with such as you said today to be. i've come from the margins for the car seat it was 17 was put through. in my head the. day he did

indeed they'd. been writing from the european union. for. the 100 of them. and i looked on it going to. be trying generation no transfer. to my child and my. i agree it drake did before you my pledge of the truth sounded in the cards and

making our proud the prima city you know not for. we contacted both the. president's office and the environment ministry for comment neither have so far responded to our requests. us speaker of the house has urged europe not to work with while wait nancy pelosi claims the chinese tech giant poses a major security threat and that its 5 g. technology could be used for spying and. now that the impeachment debacle is all wrapped up guess who's going to europe in order to promote one of the trumpet ministrations key policies it's the speech ripper herself nancy pelosi the speaker of the u.s. house of representatives is urging european countries to drop plans to use while away as their 5 g. carrier for the benefit of a few corporations you cannot sell the privacy of the people of your country down the river as i said before it's like having the state police write the chinese

state police right in your pocket you see nancy pelosi just cares about your privacy awed that she's one of what edward snowden called the gang of 8 key figures that are overseeing surveillance in the united states is far and snowden he did as you know on the in the in disagreement with you he did violate the law in terms of . releasing those documents we don't know i understand. i understand odd timing as well it's just been revealed that the cia was the secret owner of a swiss company that was offering people encrypt people's privacy was compromised because the cia had a backdoor what the u.s. government speculates that china might be doing they have been caught doing themselves while the e.u. might be more apt to listen to a top democrat then to the donald it seems they still aren't buying nancy's song and dance her euro 2 were is

a flop. while you get to. be stupid like she said so in the district of texas. so we decided to ask people what they think of this supposed danger of china spying on them are they more afraid of china spying on them or the american probably us and i'm not so much worried about china i'm worried about anybody having access to our data. to be more. ready to spy on you know in the chinese it could come from anywhere in the world u.s. . you can you would guess just the u.s. given say the alignment of interests but. for the us probably you know well the us as far as i'm concerned. you. don't know trump along with it's

a common pattern of human behavior sigmund freud called it for objection nothing drives us crazy or thinking that someone else might be doing that nobody thing that we know we are doing ourselves. are to see new york. israeli forces shot and killed a palestinian man near the gaza border fence on sunday before sending an armored bulldozer in the enclave to retrieve his body video of the incident has provoked an outpouring of anger but a warning you may find the following images upsetting oh. oh oh. oh oh oh oh oh. oh. oh oh oh. yeah according to local media 2 other palestinians were also wounded by israeli live fire as they attempted to recover the body the

i.d.f. said that the victim along with another alleged terrorist had been planting a bomb but a mosque which controls gaza said he was unarmed and israeli defense minister praised his soldiers handling of the situation. i bagged the i.d.f. which killed the terrorist and collected the body this is how it should be done and this is how would will be done. israel has a policy of retrieving of the bodies of suspected palestinian militants although the practice violates international law we spoke to human rights advocate handy about the latest incident in gaza he told us it shows extreme cruelty on israel's part it's yet another proof of how israel in general treats palestinians including 3 things the bodies the always look to palestinians as inhuman and this is evident not only in this is in the in this case in thousands of cases what we have seen on t.v. suggests that they consider us like animals israel is not free to use whatever

force they have even in the case of a military operation but rather according to international law there are laws to to use the level of force that is the proportionate to the attack there was no eminent threat just this level of force to use cannons to use bombs being they could have used at least little force against the. palestinians this 2nd issue the hard shit the treatment the cruel treatment how they used bulldozers. grab the body and they held the shaw d.v.d. on cameras that we in general how they treated us that yes this is any human illegal and immoral. there's been a stand off in the french city of lille as you know and that's activists continue their long running campaign that's very much more after

a short break this is the week we are to international. the chrono virus now has proven this point because even though all supply long supply lines are choked and deliveries of critical parts are not happening stocks are still stable or going higher because it's fed by cheap money right it's all cheap money that cheap money is is created out of nothing to create the simulation going. the world is driven by a dream shaped by. the

day or thinks. we dare to ask. him back this is the weekly on our team international now turkey russia france and germany have agreed to hold crisis talks next month on the conflict in syria's italy province syrian government forces are locked in a deadly battle with turkish backed militants. thank you which also supports so-called moderate armed groups

has recently flooded the region with troops and equipment and it was in response to a syrian offensive in the last terrorist stronghold in the region considers the province strategically important for its security and there are reported fears that syria's forces could advance further towards turkish held safe zones the russian and turkish president spoke on the phone on friday in an attempt to uphold previously agreed deescalation deals meanwhile the un warned all parties to reach a cease fire and flash point to the syria conflict is also seeing lawmakers in the u.s. push for a diplomatic response against syria and russia with an estimated 900000 people displaced by the violence at the same time though american military officials acknowledge the complexity of the situation immediately admitting that the province has become a haven for extremist factions easily proven seems to be a magnet for terrorist groups especially because it is an on going space in many ways the raw variety of groups there all of them are a nuisance a menace and

a threat to hundreds of thousands of civilians who are just trying to make it through the winter r.t.c. goes down of took a closer look on how several world powers have been tangled up in the italy but conflict. it's coming to shove in syria turkey and the us russia israel and multiple militant factions all skirmishing in the country and previous motives for warring are fading into oblivion. it's time for assad to get out of the way.

we have one a good study says we've beaten them and we beat them badly all that is a thing of the past now as new goals vividly take shape the latest fighting in idlib is a mere accessory to the geopolitical connotation is global and regional superpowers sparring with each other for dominance ideological and moral borders are blurred with turkey a nato country teaming up with terrorists to push syrians out of their own province. the operation is imminent in particular we will not leave it to the regime which is not yet understood our country's determination on this issue and those who are encouraging it refuted to making it live a safe place for both and the people of the region at all costs militants

shamelessly boasting turkey provided a.p.c.'s coming on mosques covered by turkish artillery fire russia's air force joins the party together with syrians repairing the onslaught as. moscow officially asks ankara to hold its fire and so it does to prevent militants from moving deeper into syria into su $22.00 of the russian force at the request of the syrian command have carried out as strikes against the terror groups the salada syrian troops to successfully ripple all attacks but turkey is not alone in this fight while jihadi groups are doing the bloody bidding on the ground washington cheers from over the atlantic that a very good job or say should with president carter was the fact is that he's fighting on his lead he doesn't want people to be killed by the thousands and hundreds of thousands the united states will continue to coordinate with turkey on

diplomatic approach is to restore a cease fire to the it led deescalation zone and achieve a pullback of assad regime forces to the $2800.00 so she ceasefire lines the u.s. has its own stake in the syria war and it has its eye on very particular and well predictable prizes from geo political dominance to well oiled we did leave so just because we're keeping the oil we may have to fight for the us that's ok i like the oil yet a nother act in this conflict israeli jets routinely hit targets on syrian soil it's clear what israel wants to to weaken iran's influence yet another power playing its hand and this massive and messy political gamble unfortunately for the people of syria since 2011 their country has been used as a chessboard on which the syrians appear as pawns and it's somebody else's geo

strategic chess board in particular the united states and its allies basically tore syria apart partly designed to topple the. secular but legitimate government in syria the sovereign government the government recognized by the united nations partly to topple that government and partly to claim different parts of syria for themselves syria has been an important place in geo strategic lee in geographically in this resource rich region of the middle east and also has or will so yes what we've seen the tragedy of syria the tragedy of the so-called civil war is actually a proxy war by international players using the syrian country the syrian battlefield as a proxy battlefield. with the focus of the conflict other parts of syria are beginning to get back on their feet a vital highway between the capital damascus and aleppo officially reopened in the

last 24 hours for the 1st time in 8 years it follows a successful syrian operation to exert its dominance in the greater aleppo countryside cars and buses were seen back out on the road which connects syria's north and south. france has witnessed a 67th weekend of anti-government yellow vest rallies in there were clashes with police. riot police used tear gas to disperse activists who fought back with rocks and smoke bombs around 1000 people were involved in the unrest since october 2018 wheel of this movement has been holding weaker demonstrations over falling living standards here's a look at some of the footage from leo on saturday.

at the same time a man micron was in paris attending the opening of an international agricultural show where he was meeting with industry representatives a group of yellow vest activists turned up at the event and began heckling at the president accusing him of being a dictator. was. drew a one of the social movements most prominent figures was. among those protesters he tried to approach back before he was forcibly removed by security and subsequently taken into police custody. i wanted to express my dissatisfaction to emanuel macro

and we've been trying to talk to him for months but it's difficult he only talks to people who are happy with him not the other way round and here we are people who are unhappy with these 5 years and we are not even able to approach him. or president later promised to meet with representatives of the yellow vests after many months of refusing to do so r.t. france spoke to one of the group's coordinators about the incident. well this is yet another manifestation of the authoritarianism of this government i mean eric dreher like any normal citizen had bought a ticket and gone to the international agricultural show it's fine that the mood and went around the crowd i would even say this was a rather mild reaction given what we have been facing for the last 15 months we've been persecuted in a way that no other previous social movement has been the yellow vests are the 1st to become an object of such persecution obviously bothers people and they want to

show that is not right and then our address was detained and taking out of the whole list was part of the democratic debate in our country but with mccrone it's all come to an end. now for something completely different to russia's far east where runners from around the world have been braving subzero temperatures and biting winds and a half marathon with an unusual twist. michael it doesn't matter if you watch how old you are what interests you how running in the office and brings you together. gives

a new definition to cool runnings you're watching large international i'll be back with more than a 5th of their spirits. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race and of his office very dramatic development the only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical of the guy in time to sit down and talk. but holds his hands do something to. put themselves on the line big get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to.

have to go right to the person this is what before 3 of them or can people get. interested always in the waters about how this. man there should. join me every thursday on the elec silent shore and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see you there. julian a social travels to sweden to deliver a speech while there he met 2 women aged 31 and 26 the wiki leaks founder was soon involved in an intimate relationship with both of them. the woman who had invited him to speak often to her comment to which is

studio so there's only one there's only one bed in attentions and i'm going to be away you can stay so. how have the things changed man and the woman came back to early and. wanted to lead this native anyway. the women they really approached him it seems like especially the younger ones saw him on t.v. fell into law of what they were there to be the 1st in there it looks like someone who wants to be a rock n roll groupie or something approaching him and really chasing him down and finally she also succeeds in it and they share a one night stand which at some point becomes you know. it was only after learning that a song should slept with both of them.
