now most human beings are suffering what is a magnificent machine human being to your misery man affecting machine. from protest to prayers the 1st memorial for george floyd is held in minneapolis after his death ignited the global reactions of racism and police. the common catalyst with the race based economic inequality consider the private driver of today's protests across america we revisit similar scenes from when the occupy wall street movement grew a decade ago. the headlines also this morning criticisms leveled at the european commission for classifying coded 90 as a mid-level threat to workers only a move designed to let business is the safety measures in the workplace. language

always over a new memorial at the scene of a far right terrorist atrocity in 2011 locals claim it's invasive and haunting but survivors say it's a fitting tribute i don't want to make you more comfortable people whole point of the moral statement. make people want to remember to remember every single day. good morning rush it friday the 5th of june 2020 life marty's world news h.q. in moscow is kevin owen delighted with years of taking through the headlines and stick around. first then days of anger and rage turned to silent tributes the 1st memorials being held for george floyd whose death at the hands of police has led us society to question its racial divide at a level not seen in the. wallace stood for 8 minutes 46 seconds. during which an

officer knelt on george's neck ultimately choking him to death hundreds were outside the chapel too to pay their respects while thousands continue to come out in cities across the country in mostly peaceful protests. that. in new york state a 75 year old man has been hospitalized after being aggressively shoved by a police officer causing him to fall and hit his head on the ground as you're about to see next. would. you. please have full rights in forcing the curfew when it happened to officers have

since been suspended without pay the police department's version of events reported locally though says the man tripped and fell on his own. while racism and police brutality at the heart of the unrest many agree the catalyst has been poverty and economic inequality high profile protests against that have been simmering since the occupy wall street movement emerged nearly a decade ago as kind of mope and explains. city after city has erupted in anger and trow test after the killing of george floyd it started with an unjust and tragic killing by police much like events in baltimore and ferguson however it's pretty clear that now the protests have an economic component take a look at what's happening in soho heavily built and other high end shopping districts thank you thank you. thank you thank on the militarized streets. one chant has caught on tape all right ok ok ok ok it's got

a familiar ring to it one can flashback 9 years to occupy wall street. occupy wall street was about mass unemployment it was about bias among courts and law enforcement and a lack of accountability among the powerful in the united states economic inequality is hitting the african-american community harder than ever the rate of coded $1000.00 infection among african-americans is much higher on august billionaires have gotten through richer amid the pandemic the unemployment rate has risen to 20 percent and that disproportionately affects african-americans not surprising that the sentiments of occupy wall street are feeling right now right thank you both right by. us 3 growth rate rising.

from the top things like that like this is us right now the right guys thanks is walk to my personal side i haven't changed very much sense that my hair was certainly a lot longer and i was among the demonstrators taking it all in we need to design our own blueprint and we need to start implementing it in the streets parallels between the 2 movements one primarily white the other primarily african-american cannot be overlooked if the similarities were not striking enough take a look at the fact that the george floyd protesters just had a standoff with the n.y.p.d. with mass arrests taking place on a bridge connecting brooklyn and manhattan far. far. ok thank you how are you going to be high high. now to be fair the police are dealing with a lot more street fighting and looting than they did during occupy wall street but

o'dowd the u.s. was not 100 percent peaceful either and in both cases the response to the protesters has been pretty heavy handed repression. that. we found out many things it's like a movement and it's a movement that if you don't put it down it will get worse and worse this is like occupy wall street it was a disaster in 21 day somebody said that's enough and they just went in and wiped them out and that's the last time we ever heard the name occupy wall street point

of view of the of the government and the parties is a very obvious turn of events when people are beginning to focus on the neo liberal power configuration and the failure of the economy to be able to provide the basic human needs this is not just about george florida that of course was the trigger but thousands of people were in the streets in the streets because they have to see you to bet their lives flight george floored me look so there's a real anger in the population in the junk people out there in the streets of the out there because they are beginning to make certain connections in those connections that are way beyond anything called just is just for this one individual george will. trump

a tough line on policing the more agitated rallies is coming from a wide criticism may even one of his former top table to members is come out to condemn the president for stoking the vision. former defense secretary james madison accusing president trump of being a threat to the constitution in a remarkable and rare statement madison accuses trump of actively dividing the nation we are witnessing the consequences of 3 years without mature leadership says the general we can unite without him drawing on the strengths inherent in our civil society and it isn't just mattis over the past couple of days 2 former joint chiefs of staff have criticized the president's threat of using the military and overruling governors to put u.s. military troops in american cities rings so hollow to me when you have a secretary of defense and a general former general who essentially was carrying out a war that was never approved by congress that led to the deaths of millions of people across syria and who wanted to remain there and continue to fight wars in

syria and across the middle east this is hardly a man of peace who is making these statements the mainstream corporate left in this car in this country you know always seems to forget you know i mean look of it they're the ones who elevated david frum and the you know other neo con types from the bush administration just because they agreed with them and going after donald trump so though i hate anyone just that they can attack their opposition in this case donald trump and the republicans the republicans would do the same thing you know that's the problem with the 2 party system in this country is that they have very short memories when it comes to who's throwing stones and who's throwing bricks to essentially have our 2 parties at the same foreign policy view which is that any country around the world where we can bomb we probably should and it's certainly the those countries in the middle east what rings hollow to me is that you have all these folks across the country right now who are talking about black lives matter and that in certainly they do but lives in other countries matter as

well and what you're not going to hear any politician say is that people's lives in iraq matter or in syria matter or in yemen that or they don't think that they get. do you really believe that those people's lives are truly expendable and because they are not consistent in that it demonstrates that they don't actually believe that black lives matter either they simply think it is political expedience to say so but i think of the late great comedian george carlin one side the united states is very good at bombing brown people and clearly with the rise of black lives matter were also very good at oppressing brown people here at home so i think everybody has to be very careful with what they say and what stones they throw in this thing especially generals who led charges in foreign countries abroad in the under the under the name of american empire. france is joining in with the global reaction to police violence a 2000 strong rally in the city of lille was reportedly tear gassed by police on thursday as well as simply an anger over george floyd's killing the french have

similar stories to tell and they claim officers are going on punish too i shall do been ski reports next. with riots in the us and discord tearing fronts over racism within the police the french government is vowing to throw the book at any officer who exhibits the slightest sign of racism. we have to ensure that every form can be something every excess every word including racist expressions is investigated. punished and i'm uncompromising on this subject because the requirements we have for police officers who are wrong precisely to get into the serenity of the work of the entire police force is. clear do you think the middle class that that's the law i think the fuel to the fire is this video showing seeing falling in arrest in paris that many have likened to what's happened to test floyd in the legs police in paris just speak the accusations saying it was

a complicated arrest of an individual who was under the influence of drugs and alcohol the cry of no more has become much more vocal here in france over 20000 people were gathered here on tuesday to voice their anger over actions like this and also the death of a black man while in custody in 2016 a dam a troll or a case his family say that is similar to george freud deck's place fixation sparked days of violent protests. i.

think it's going to be on the they will put in child calm down to the weight of 3 policemen on the bridge boy to the way to treat policemen on them they had the same origin i can't breathe i can't be a cold corrientes was the slogan many carried on plaquenil odds in the protest here which had been so bitten by the authorities truck or his family disputes medical reports that have exonerated the officers involved in these arrests pointing to an independent report that they commissioned which states that like floyd of this fixation the anger felt hate by protesters was clear and it wasn't long before that tension spilled over.

the french government has been quick to react pointing out that france is not a racist country and shouldn't be compared to the us. there isn't a situation has to balance in our country and i don't think we can say that he had these other incidents when they're at us committed by members of the police chief as the interior minister has always said to my investigations and when the sanctions what us are determined through the government has also called for coleman keen to point out the protests of drawers death was banned for health and safety not political reasons the protesters say it's time france woke up to its own unspoken legacy of the thieves and impunity. i think that you want to say that the friendship to asia is not comparable to that of the united states although she wants to stifle the struggle for justice they all support is of the system says

that those who do not want. those who want things to continue but if you want to as has been the case for 40 years making peanuts to the police. when it comes to the inhabitants of working class neighborhood. rallies against racism and police brutality all commonplace here but to see these protests with the see if i was innocent thousands of people is considered by some to have been a watershed moment and the only go that was spilling out households yet it seems being quelled show it deep in ski altie paris. just after your moscow morning from thanks for watching all things that are still on the way but after being told when to stay away from work because of the potentially deadly virus no make it is your employers the european commission says maybe it's not so bad as we reported 90 seconds.

no one else seemed wrong. why don't we all just don't all. get to shape out just to become educated and in detroit equals betrayal.

when something find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. again morning we've all heard the message relating to subway about the threat of infection from the coronavirus by the european commission that was coming in for criticism for classifying covert 90 as only a mid level menace to work is it's all part of getting business his movie again as your correspondent peter all of the reports. if you cast your mind spock just a few moments the main message coming out of the view is that the cautions with the number one priority here in europe we are heavily affected by the virus.

the borders of the entrance of the european union. will be closed. without a valid risen traveling in and out of the can prove no longer below. the risk level has risen from moderate to high for people in the european union now top brass of made the decision to retire coronavirus as they made level threats now while that doesn't make the virus any less contagious what it does mean is in the eyes of the e.u. commission the threat posed to work by covert 19 is now categorized as not being very high in the existence so absence of prophylaxis cannot be considered as a standalone criterion employers will still have to provide this stuff with a safe working environment when it comes to protective equipment and social

distancing but the change in wording leaves business less open to legal action takes on the job infection the move comes as some employees in germany are already far from happy with the conditions they have to work in 00000. 00. people came out and worked every day from the early dawn with no medical masks covering the amounts crammed in baskets sometimes they would give us that sometimes they would 'd at the same time they were being insulted while in the field and treated. i don't know who is not even from the peak they have their designated payouts 400 furious. the socialist and democrats group in the european parliament are buying this move by the e.u. commission we strongly oppose a decision by the commission to classify code 19 only as

a mid-level hazard could be 1000 is the biggest help talent of our lifetime amy p.s. may well overturn the move when it's put to a vote in parliament the european commission insists that they've made the right decision after consulting with scientists at the world health organization but that doesn't fly with the latest messaging from the w.h.o. when it comes to the seriousness of the risk the e.u. labels this a level 3 virus meaning there is usually effective prevention or treatment available while the w.h.o. believes there is no cure in the forseeable future or drugs either as of now and there's no evidence that any drug actually reduces the mortality in patients who have called it 19 and in fact it's an argent priority for all of us to do the needed studies to do the randomized clinical trials births even the

president of the european council has said the decision how does much to do with the economy as it ever has to do with health everything should be done to reach an agreement before the summer break our citizens and businesses have been heavily impacted by the pandemic but only targeted relief. the european union has taken a pounding from the corona virus and tens of thousands of families of hearts of barry love to warms ultimately this comes down to finding that point where by saving the economy from an irreversible decline always concerns over public health . in my opinion there is no so. thing is what the european community says is the medium level threat of the virus nobody can say so we don't know this wireless it's been 6 months we don't know the behavior of this wireless it's contagion how develops and we don't have a treatment for it either as search this is a political and financial measure more than anything the u.

commission has labeled it a 3rd category managed which is to say low danger i have doubts about it time will tell the heat and the quarantine measures imposed in each country have led to a certain overall improvement and this by the senator and conditions of peach country at any moment complications may merge and the tide will turn. a memorial to terrorism victims in norway is expected to open next year on the 10th anniversary of a far right atrocity there but is but 1st to speak to the build up to it in recent years with locals calling them immoral invasive saying it's only going to reopen old wounds.

yes and it's outrage shame that norwegian government still struggle. at least virus extra strong to get irrational morrow. and there was a great resistance among the local people is it was specially mostly live close the kids who are afraid that the memorial will bring an ongoing reminder of the tragedy that the just imagine that this will be a place for the whole world to cheney's people glory and people and russians will be coming here at the beginning all the tourists came to us every time i was away tourists our guarding the got strata and now it's starting again i. think

i think that a good decision is you know we made by the state the neighbors opinion has not been heard at all. we're now talking about making the memorial site smaller less making more people i don't want to make you more comfortable or the whole point of memorials are. people who don't want to remember to remember every single day this happened this afternoon their neighborhood. this. is just not of pressing the issue has just started bringing up argument you should be accessible should anything should be already remember it's. part of our set of charges that. a yemeni journalist who is often a contributor for artie's rightly video agency has been killed outside his home

near the stricken port city of aden he was gunned down in what's been described as a planned assassination that will his son who was 34 leaves a wife and 3 children is with those expecting their 4th child it was a finalist for britain's rory peck award in 2016 for covering the long standing war in yemen is some of the video we filmed we won't survive to a drone attack. but there's the exact moment that drone attack happened neville bravely faced similar challenges and threats during his work over the years and helps to bring a better understanding of the yemeni conflict to the international community thousands turned out to mourn him saying prayers and cheering to celebrate his life as they carried his coffin to his funeral he's now been buried today in the head of the un's education and culture agency also paid tribute. i condemn the murder of new bill has. brave reporters like never before has done carry out important work

keeping people in the emmen informed and documenting the extreme conditions their country is experiencing they must be offered every possible protection. sad way to end this polygamist the way the world's top headlines look at this friday the 5th of june reporting from moscow it's kevin owen here thank you for watching from here throughout the day from the studios we'll be updating it hourly and so we will be later on as well going around the world from our various correspondents and studios there too so for now have a great day. this spiral downward depending on who you believe in the media the civil unrest in america is the result of systematic racism this explains protest and writing but does it the commanding heights controlling the financial system media and the business world are loath to admit it it's the economy stupid for them to raise all

these. ah no team no crowd. no shots. actually helps because. well it's true no 1st. point your thirst for action. no was a clip of shareholders no yesterday. but the my it's always ok it was a school moment. not something you. see immediately.

they can put us in the mood and get the curtains up. to open to get through to. get to. the. ts up. figure. the official of president of the f.c.c. the system. the system designed for people like me. different people who are here for different reasons we all see job. most people in philadelphia are only about 2 paychecks away from homelessness.

seemed wrong. just don't hold. any belief yet to shape our disdain and become educated and in the game equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. reaction to president trump's threat of deploying active duty troops to u.s. cities we'll get that reaction from the former mayor in los angeles on this of putting. the politicking on larry king although he's quieter on the subject down than days past president trump has not backed down from his criticisms of the way mayors in

some of the largest cities in this country have handled protests and rioting in the wake of george floyd's death and he's leaving open the possibility of sending u.s. troops into some cities to quell the rioting we've seen the last few days we'll get reaction to that now from our good friend antonio of the or goes to the former mayor of los angeles let's start right there mayor what what was your reaction to his threat to call in the u.s. troops unbelievable the language that he used i never heard a president talk like that at least the president united states of america and not some banana republic. even in his defense secretary. tried to walk away from those comments and indicated that they weren't considered.
