and afghanistan. free speech advocates in the u.k. . professor following complaints from trans activists. and some trends that. they would not appear. so they asked me if i would like to invite myself and just not come. broadcasting live from our studios in moscow this is. what every with. now a cease fire has come into effect in syria's war torn province it was agreed to earlier by the leaders of russia and turkey during high stakes negotiations in moscow the 2 international powers are backing opposing sides in the conflict which has brought them perilously close to direct confrontation in recent weeks. tells us

about the talks and their results. it took a total of 6 hours 3 of them tete a tete between ludmer put unedited to type it on that's a lot for top men and then the 2 countries delegations including foreign and defense ministers joined their leaders and the discussion continued it was clear from the beginning it is not going to be an easy chorus ation journalists were told there will be no press conference at the end or any media context so to the very last moment we didn't know whether we're going to see mr putin and mr added a gun this evening at all but both leaders came out to journalists with the outcome of thursday's crucial talks on syria the key point is that the 2 sides came to an agreement to de-escalate the syrian turkish crisis in syria's war torn province and to set this in concrete putin and out of the gun signed a document detailing a cease fire on the ground in a glib that starts from midnight march 6th your jews thought at

midnight beginning on the 6th of march a ceasefire will be implemented we will take all necessary steps to ensure at last our goal is to do everything possible to prevent the humanitarian situation from deteriorating in the region so the ceasefire is certainly agcy point but there were some other steps agreed upon between russia and turkey the 2 sides decided to establish a so-called safe corridor 12 kilometer wide 6 kilometers north and 6 kilometers south from syria strategic and for highway connecting aleppo and lattakia and to start joint patrol of this area to secure it to make it a safe zone starting march 15th flight reporting described thursday stalks with the head of the gun in general as a positive move through the fog of the solution to this group but we don't always agree without turkish partners in our evaluation of the situation in syria but

critical moments having high level bilateral relations we've always managed to find common ground on controversial issues and have found acceptable solutions. well what is a glib this is syria is the last remaining terrorist stronghold damascus lost control over it 5 years ago but back in 2018 russia and turkey again putin anetta gone already committed to help the syrian army clear this fos northern province in syria from teri's and hole the size seem to have this common goal and move together towards it until her around a month ago the turkish leader gave up they saw idea and he made a u. turn calling on russia to leave syria and to leave him face to face with the regime these are he's words the situation on the ground started boiling escalation violence it became clear is something needs to be done urgently a while ago the turkish president announced

a special gather rain on syria in istanbul but not only between russia and turkey but also with france and germany that's what meant putting convinced his turkish counterpart that they do not need mediators and this is why we saw mr as a gun coming here to moscow kremlin and having a discussion with wagner putting down all mcadams from the ron paul institute for peace told r.t. it is in the interest of both moscow and to ensure the cease fire last. we should all breathe a sigh of relief because truly russia and turkey were on the brink of direct conflict it was careening out of control and i think it was very wise to have called this bilateral meeting to hammer it out because there are the danger of it actually adding into war and possibly including nato was very real the whole issue of the of the war torn in the province is not that different in the war torn aleppo province which amazingly settled down once it was liberated from the from the

control of jihad ists of extremists of al qaida and that's the exact same thing in italy a province the important thing is that the m 4 in an m 5 highways will be open up that's important to certainly to russia into syria but let's also remember the heir to one is having some problems back home there's a huge brawl in the parliament just yesterday with 2 with the parties fighting each other the opposition parties are not thrilled that everyone has essentially embedded turkish military forces with al qaida to serve as human shields to prevent the syrians from retaking their own territory he's gone way out on a ledge and i think he's finding himself at the end of his political row perhaps. the atmosphere is also tense had turkey's border within the e.u. where an estimated $35000.00 asylum seekers have gathered since friday attempting to cross into greece turkish authorities have claimed a man died on wednesday after greek police opened fire on

a group of migrants an allegation that athens denies reporting from the border here's r.t. struck depends. in the dead of night they've set up camp these migrants who say they are from syria have succeeded where so many haven't they've crossed the border from turkey into greece. or holland but even the most basic of comforts can come at a cost on the one hand lighting a fire means want for the children on the other it means being visible to the security forces and volunteers trying to protect greece's borders. greece says it stopped thousands from entering into its borders within the last week of those who have made it through many have been arrested and they have been taken to detention facilities like this one here behind me that surround 10 miles from the function here now you can see children playing clothes hung out to dry so despite the barbed

wire and the high fences with security posts life goes on greece has just announced that it will create another center in this area to deal with any new to cross from turkey the plan is to deport them as soon as possible and while e.u. chiefs have come to greece's aid saying it is acting as europe shield others are more critical of the books position this is a moment to which people is questioning guy davidi existence and the role of the of the european union not this is we don't have to feel to run after the storm much of the people we must help the people to understand how complex is the life oakum pixie's there is the is the war there and and and showed the ability to have the political force to fix that and not calling these people and these disparate people . on because calling a. shield that means that these people are our weapon for the president and he

says the buddha should be opened there is no. act even in the in the policies of the european union that allow the members to suspend. did the right. to request. you know contrary i know the disease a very difficult situation but democracy and the rule of law must apply more than ever in this kind of situation and my opinion francesco. about dignity. the conditions on the border a not dignified he said neither was the existence of many thousands of migrants who live on a day to day basis stuck in limbo in centers like we've seen he's calling on the e.u. to sort out its issues and to find a solution to the crisis so that countries like greece

a new longer left shouldering the burden of migration. you can ski r.c. . near the greek turkish border the red cross has sharply criticized the e.u. over its handling of the crisis and rebuked greece for suspending asylum applications at the u.n. says has no legal basis some members of the european parliament however have said that the blog should end all cooperation with turkey. this is again a good lesson for us that the european union doesn't soften our problems it only makes the problems worse we paid 6000000000 euros to the turkish regime and what do we get after several years we only get blackmailed again so it does the other gun just wants more money from us and this has to stop in pepin it is clear that mr. stork gave are not a reliable partner and so i think that the e.u. should keep the interim council because i think that your piano taxpayers have

a lost a lot of money i mean in my view would be an appropriate response for the e.u. to suspend the e.u. turkish customs union with immediate effect. and. we may well be demanding this in the not too distant future. on thursday ankara announced it will send 1000 special police officers to the border to prevent the greek side from driving back desperate asylum seekers we spoke to some of the migrants about being stranded there. i came from of ghana stunned i arrived at the border with groups but it's closed and one can't grow also that the group security forces are dispersing migrants with tear gas. i'm from iran and i want to go to europe as you know the economic situation in our country is very bad we tried to cross the border but security forces detained us took all our belongings and beingness. we left

afghanistan and came to work in turkey we left everything behind when we had to queue is opening its border but is it turns out the border is closed no one is helping us let up. the u.s. secretary of state has bitterly condemned a decision by the international criminal court to authorize an investigation into possible war crimes in afghanistan my pump a 0 said that under no circumstances will washington allow american citizens to be held accountable by the hague based organization. we've come to know this i.c.c. is a truly political body we have evidence suggesting that there has been there have been efforts to provide misinformation to the corporate form parties we're going to take all the appropriate actions to ensure that american citizens are not hold before this political body to settle a political vendetta the us secretary of state mike palm pale was commenting on the real launching of an investigation by the international criminal court into

activities that took place by major powers in afghanistan and this investigation is launched as it appears that a peace deal has been signed and that afghanistan could be drawing down in hostilities the prosecutor is out to commence and this to gauge in relation to elect crimes committed in the gulf gonna stop at this point the united states has maintained a presence in afghanistan for 18 years and the international criminal court in its investigation is looking into the activities of cia members the international criminal court is looking into the possibility of torture cruel treatment outrages upon personal dignity rape and other forms of sexual violence as part of policy by members of the cia now it's important to note that there have been other allegations against the u.s. in afghanistan u.s. service members have been accused of bombing and attacking healthcare facilities disappearing people and killing civilians according to the latest un report over

100000 civilians have died or been injured in the past decade of fighting in afghanistan now ever the united states has withdrawn from the international criminal court the top administration withdrew from the court in september of 2018 and it appears that my pompei was doubling down on that this is a truly breathtaking action by an unaccountable political institution masquerading as a legal body the i.c.c. today. stumbled into a sorry affirmation of every denunciation made by its harsh critics over the last 3 decades now it's also important to note that last year we saw the pardoning of u.s. service members accused of killing civilians in both iraq and afghanistan by u.s. president donald trump he pardoned them when they face charges for their actions.

so as the war in afghanistan seems to be drawing down many are optimistic about the peace deal it appears that the united states is determined to make sure that members of its armed forces are not held accountable for any crimes they may have committed in afghanistan while the united states maine to maintain its presence there for 18 years international politics expert daniel sean told us that the u.s. is used to having the legality of its military actions overlooked. it's interesting to hear rhetoric critiquing the international criminal court it sounded like when

he called it a roll organisation and they were irresponsible i thought he was talking about the us government who is always try to rush shot across the human rights of afghanis in the vietnamese and so many other areas where the us has invaded in pillaged they've never been held accountable there's no reason to think now that they have any fear of being held accountable although this is a big headline there is no preston in the list of human rights violation goes on in our and we're always making hitler blush with us foreign policy is there and over the course of the cold war and now quote unquote post cold war but look at the answer i get is when u.s. russia china japan as well iran you can't tell the people of the 3rd world that the cold war ended. this is are to international an ox florida academic and feminist has been excluded from a conference celebrating women's rights after the organizers received complaints from trans activists we will tell you that after short break stay with us.

these policymakers are grown accustomed to the idea that every single problem can be solved with money printing why can't we solve the coronavirus of money printing the market now is starting to scratch just had a little bit and saying wait a minute that's insane so therefore valuations look like they're going to be marked already in correction territory on these markets down time percent are going to have to bear market valuations down 20 percent probably i think the likelihood is extremely high 50 to 60 percent drop that's probably a 10 to 20 percent probability. seemed wrong. but old rules just don't hold. any new world yet to shape

out these days becomes agitated and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart and we choose to look for common ground. all right welcome back to our team international let's take a swing around the globe a look at some other stories making headlines this hour we'll go to the united states 1st where senator elizabeth warren has dropped out of the race for the democratic party's 2020 presidential nomination she failed to place in the top 2 candidates in any of the 14 states that voted on super tuesday former vice president joe biden now has the most delegates ahead of bernie sanders going into the next stage of the primaries. a helicopter carrying the philippines national police chief has crashed injuring him and 7 others on board it had just taken off

would not appear at the conference if i was there so they asked me if i would like to disinvite myself and just not come and i said no i'm not willing to do that partly because i was there in a professional capacity as a professor oxford my faculty had given the conference a great deal of support and they just myself and the head of the history faculty to speak there so i said no and i said please let me know as soon as possible what you intend to do about this and would you like my advice and support on how to deal with these police and they declined that and rang me back at 6 pm and said we've got a compromise you can come but you're not allowed to speak you're not allowed to say anything. while selena todd's ties to the feminist organization women's place u.k. are thought to be one of the reasons for the complaint against her the group was formed in 2017 to fight for women's rights but has been accused of transphobia for opposing the gender recognition act which allows people to change their legal

gender the u.k.'s department for education has however condemned todd's exclusion from the event universities are required by law to uphold freedom of speech allowing academics students and visiting speakers to challenge ideas and discuss controversial subjects we have made clear that if universities do not uphold free speech the government will oxford universities exit or college has said it was not responsible for the decision of the event organizers it says it is investigating what has happened so we know todd has also been pains to defend herself against allegations of transphobia. it was some transactive based who call me transfer you big that is completely unfounded i am connected to an organization which advocates for women's rights and in my professional capacity as a historian i research women's history and the evidence that i have found leads me to agree with the law as it stands that women are a sex and should have access to single sex places like refuge it is and the single

sex court i certainly believe that transgender people should be allowed to state their identity and should be treated with respect and i'm very delighted to work in an institution that respects the rights of transgender staff and transgender students. we've all looked up at the stars and marveled at one time or another well enjoy it while it last says nasa because it thinks we're about to lose that celestial beauty to a swarm of manmade satellites. that . are today's launch of 60 star loads certainly to orbit mark falcon known as a successful flight but.

that does it for me this i'll be back with more news at the top of next hour stay with us are 2 trash. we're feeding our hopes our dreams our desires our money to compete this creates a what do we get back to no liking that's that's a bad deal so when is technology jumping out of this week when is the goji helping need to keep you healthy to keep me informed or to keep me you know connected and i missed it so we will live in an area the post screen area where we will live with less at all these screens and it will be more in harmony or it will help us more.

i think the men that we attract to the military you know we've got to the army of one you know be all you can be all those themes that we've had throughout the years very very heavily masculine masculinity cannot be victimized because if you're a leader if you're a masculine person and you're victimized then you're weak the problem is that anybody can be a victim of sexual assault. and join the service in 1972. the military is a great way of life. that see the world. i got educated i love the military. was 19 and i want to challenge a loan and the next thing i know i was laying on the ground i was struck from behind. and you guys will hold me down to one guy who was pulling my pants down.

and. you know. he was taking care of his business and you know struggled and i was being struck and hit and told you know told to shut up or they'd kill me. and i see how it destroyed my life. i mean i've been married 3 times this luckily i have a wife right now who i've been married to for 25 years. you start wondering you start sort of you know you're coming up with reasons why things are the way they are and for a long time i kept thinking i don't know this something something else. i had never told anybody over 30 years i decided to tell my wife. it was the scariest moment in my life i was going tell my wife she was going to leave me and i would be lost without her i mean honest to god i couldn't i couldn't get up every morning without my wife. you know. and i told i felt

horrified and i felt sad and i felt angry and you know all along the course of the evening you know feelings just started to surface that were probably just simmering for a very very long time and she put her arms around me and we're both sat there and saw it was like. this great weight had been lifted off for me. i think it's important to recognize that military sexual trauma is not limited to women and in fact when it comes to the absolute numbers because of the proportion of men in much larger numbers than women actually the numbers are even greater. or i think one of the last bits of research showed that about one percent of males had been victims of sexual assault within the past year in the military that equals to about 20000 you get labeled as a body and that's the nice term to be related to so.
