in the stories that shaped the week here on r.t. russia rejects claims that meddled in last year's election in the u.k. and try to steal information on the country's coronavirus faxing also. foster children in germany for decades a new report reveals a new new all along we hear from the victims. every day was mental and physical mistreatment we were forced to do things we wouldn't normally do because we were threatened our lives are being destroyed we are able to work and we have become aware that we are just a pile of misery and china says it will hit back following president trump revoking of hong kong special trade status.

quo they're welcome the latest developments in a look back at what's been happening to you over the last 7 days you're watching a weekly here on r.t. international now the russian ambassador to britain has rejected right claims by the british government that moscow has been up to its old tricks in its queues russia of meddling in last year's election and trying to steal information on the u.k.'s coronavirus faxing. the russian intelligence agencies have been targeting in terms of cyber attacks against efforts across the those 3 countries and here in the u.k. our attempts to find a vaccine through research and development occur in a box we do not have information about who may have hacked into pharmaceutical companies and research centers in great britain we can say one thing russia has nothing at all to do with these attempts while the u.s.

and canada security service is also backed britain's claims they say a russian hacking group targeted various organizations trying to develop a vaccine we asked people in london about the perceived threat from russia i don't think it's connected to paper shrinking from trials offering this fingal destroyed job you know just through a smokescreen you know just to. distract us from what you're really going on sounds like that's pretty good evidence that it was from russian hackers so yeah it doesn't surprise me there's a lot of difficulty. hearing this election i'd rather be blaming cummings before i blame you if he's think they've got to be a puritan is trying to destabilize the rest of us or. to make things. more conducive for russian interests russian explained it is like this kind of like nafta aftermath like the red scare kind of thing like old pressure so we think that's kind of correct and it's very easy to point the finger isn't it isn't also

africa when you point the finger take a look see how many fingers are pointing back you. also got reaction to the allegations from a former british politician analysts and also intelligence. well here we go again highly likely or sartorial of days are long gone when the public believed highly likely claims by british government ministers or megastars anywhere the public demands are of a higher standard of growth nowadays or do they mean by russian is this president putin that again sitting on radio wasn't doing our job here most of the national service. if we had evidence wouldn't we to publish it if they're caught when what they mean by russian actor to surely must mean russian security forces if they had evidence that russian security forces were

guilty of into being in the u.k. general election not be prosecuted in rome to release that information that would be headline news in every news outlet in this country and across the globe seized on by the americans and the be leaky he. do men when a story broke as well last year and it was called a leak it wasn't called a hack so it was something coming out of government while the real hack from the some extra looks at the tour agency so i think it's interesting that now bring us up to take a head of the publication of being a tourist russia. now known paedophiles had been fostering young boys in germany for years that is the finding of a new report in the country which claims the authorities either turned a blind eye or work complicit in letting it continue peter oliver has been speaking to some of the victims. decades of abuse carried out by those put in

a position to protect the most vulnerable in society for 30 years starting in the 1970 s. . place children in the care of a convicted paedophile named for its age i spoke to 2 of his victims to protect their right to anonymity they'll be named only. and marco. our daily lives are dominated by instructions we were shielded from the outside world like a sect most of the time we faced violence if we wanted to go out or meet someone else we were intimidated and told these people were bad should have nothing to do with them if we wanted to go anyway we were forbidden every day it was mental and physical mistreatment and we're only realizing this now we were forced to do things we wouldn't normally do because we were threatened that was our life the worse the treatment the more you felt this person was important to you every day with this man was

a fight for survival and the fight to preserve yourself what makes this more troubling is that the lives of these men as well as essentially being. as part of an experiment. rated psychologist helmet and even after his death in 2010 was regarded as they found. he was in effect little more than a match maker putting neglected children into the care of predators. we learned about this experiment called in 2017 my thought was this can't be true i was not a mere product of chance i was deliberately selected by the branch of the s.p.d. party the ruling party at the time that hired a mercenary to destroy our lives in an experiment when we heard about it we felt. them and particularly bothers us is that the names of those responsible are missing but there must be a further. the investigation in my opinion this is one of the greatest crimes of

the post-war era the fact that it was really an experiment is shameful and very humiliating it was tolerated for decades no one ever came along and asked how we were doing life with our foster father was going nobody ever came over to check. those responsible are still sitting in offices or enjoying their pensions they're trying to hide behind a statute of limitations to torpedo another investigation is shameful that the perpetrator the organization is hiding behind legal quibbles to avoid shedding light on it this criminal organization should not be behind the investigation the care system in germany has changed dramatically since scandalous time when it comes to who can act as a foster parent authors of a study into the kempler experiment of told r.t. that there is no way his crimes were carried out without the welfare office being

directly involved in germany of course to care is the responsibility of the youth welfare offices still children and adolescents who leave and forced to homes always grow up on just 8 observation the things that occur in foster homes we examined could not have happened without the knowledge of officials in the us welfare authorities there has never been this state investigation into the actions of templar and his experiment in senators told us they are pushing for a nationwide examination to look at the real scale of the abuse since we have nationwide connections further research can be limited only to berlin the center for education youth and family has said that she wants to submit an application to the conference of ministers to deal with sexual violence and foster homes the victims of abuse say the knowledge of the government it makes them accomplices in the crimes and in moscow of pushing for me to go action today after having been.

failed by the authorities there. the berlin senate is 100 percent involved the bird in senate initiated it and then tolerated it it's already been admitted verbal leap but not legally from the very beginning the only thing that mattered to them was how to keep the problem small criminal charges were put forward we file charges in the senate kept in touch with those since then there's been no contact with the senate it's impossible to build up such an organization on this scale without state help. we expect justice our lives have been destroyed we are are they able to work and we have become aware that we are just a pile of misery we were put in this situation by the government deliberately it was not an accident as we thought until now it is a matter of course that the senate will make amends the senate has offered as $10000.00 euros in return for us taking no further action against it the names of those responsible and the consequences for these people are still missing as long

as it stays like that things are not over this is a particularly horrible wing story of exploitation and failure to protect the states was expressly directed to protect. china if this were to strike back against the us after president trump cans or the hong kong special trade status and approve sanctions on those involved in a new security law. the u.s. side the towns to obstruct the implementation of handguns national security law will never succeed in order to save guard its own legitimacy interests china will make the necessary sponsor and impose sanctions on relevant u.s. personnel and entities. what relations between this new countries have been souring for some time with territorial and trade disputes and the impact from what has branded the chinese flu. it is what trump threatened to do

should beijing introduce these new security laws in hong kong and what they are is basically a restriction on a little criticism of the chinese government in hong kong for example it outlaws any calls for independence a session from china for hong kong as well as outlawing tradition by by life in prison even mingling with the wrong crowd to being on the payroll of foreign entities who want to see chinese authority in hong kong diminish and in this case trump trump has said that since the freedom in hong kong has been extinguished there's no reason to give it special privileges on congo now be treated the same as male in journey no special privileges or special economic treatment and no export of sensitive technologies there's a whole host of sanctions that are going to be introduced against hong kong and chinese officials deemed responsible for introducing this new security bill there's

a whole list of grievances that trump has towards china towards hong kong and it just keeps growing steadily but quickly there is for example the whole mess in the south china sea wall the territorial claims that china has made there that the united states has condemned that is turning into a military conflict there's also the issue of china refusing to join any arms control treaties that the united states wants them to be a part of this the huge trade surplus something that trump is hated from the get to sue and of course i would say the most painful for an interim site the current virus pandemic big no mistake we hold china fully responsible for concealing the virus and unleashing it upon the world could have stopped it they should have stopped it. it would have been very easy to do it the source would have put them want to sell something to europe to america this all sorts of restrictions and all

sorts of tariffs all gone was a little liberal window that belonged to china through which the chinese government to chinese companies could sell things to the west all buy things like sensitive technologies relatively simply with minimal tariffs now that's god there are more than a 1000 western companies that. have offices in hong kong he's willing to through even his room under the bus to make china hurt for all the talk of free markets and globalism they really seem to dislike competition because what you are way does is it makes 5 gtech for example amongst other things and it makes it cheap so how do you make people stop buying something that's cheap effective and make them turn to expensive western analogs you do this by saying that chinese take is somehow tainted from the end of this year telecoms critics must not buy any 5 to equipment

from huawei and once the telecoms critical is passed it will be illegal for them to do so the united states is going to do a lot of effort lot of effort in coercing and convincing its allies to dom who are way which is a reputational blue for china you know this is this is it's brad this is a chinese brown and an economic boom and you know just just to add insult to injury trump has come out and said that what is happening who are way being kicked out of the united states out of europe is he's achievement we convinced many countries many countries and i did this myself for the most part not to use while way. because we think it's an unsafe security risk it's a big security risk one thing you can say about the chinese. never rush the never recklessly always wait it out eats like a characteristic so we can expect

a response you have chinese press coming out and saying that you know action needs to be taken we need to assure them that we can't be bullied this easily so we can expect the response from china and now it's going to be a response on 2 fronts 1st what's happening in hong kong and what is happening to our way which is being the century removed from western markets by the united states or against it then i am still comfy on the weekly recent history seems to be repeating itself in the us as a police officer is caught on camera kneeling on the neck of a man we'll have reaction you stuff. it's politically impossible in the united states to advise eating listen to anything that has an industry behind it that makes

a lot of money. as i'm going to say over and over again we know what is healthy diet in these not being should much for one for one thing and eating less is very very bad for business it doesn't make anybody rich if people eat less food. ah. no shots. actually helps because. well it struck the 1st. point ch your thirst for.

welcome back physio emerged this week of another police officer kneeling on the neck of a man while trying to restrain him an investigation is now underway in pennsylvania where the instant took place and just like for the killing of george floyd the video sparked immediate practiced. law we don't murder broke. the law is amazing his name a bra get off the mat a. but he's also came under attack in new york this week 3 officers there including a police chief were seriously injured on brooklyn bridge during a march against rising gun crime violence erupted when counter protesters appeared and dozens were arrested.

are top police captain rightly this as he fears offices of being portrayed as the enemy of the people. there are obviously much more concern nowadays with being attacked due to the actions of other officers because there is such the same called the halo effect and that is now every officer is being asserted on as brutal and an enemy of the minority population the fact is these officers were attacked totally unnecessarily what disappointed me with this is none of the other protesters even pushed this guy away took them to the ground took his weapon you want to went over her. empathy for your movement do the right thing justice is for everybody the solution to violent protest is

to confront the reason you have violent protests confront the economic disparities can confront the job lack of job opportunities confront the lack of education for black people these are the so yes that go into these protests. the talk is ratcheting taking down to november's presidential election in the us and with donald trump taking a battering i 1st handling of the trying to virus his rival joe biden has smelled blood and he's using his family to go in for the kill the story is filled plenty of pages in sask is tight as we can diary. you'll remember joe biden's wife don't you very sure very. very. well jill's back this time not as a husband's sister but as cool thought of

a children's book about joe's life which ought almost 78 years fills a full 27 pages well i gave it a read obviously the reviews in joey that's what they all cool to have ready sounds like an be around good guy a wizardly ability to catch a ball just words not mine standing up to bullies president of his freshman class to rebut his only weakness and he himself admits it is talking was sometimes really difficult but you know what i think we can all agree he grew out of that let's not even bring it up to our own story. from the beginning it's clear that joe was really close with his parents and his siblings he often said quote the absolute most important thing is your family but didn't he also vote for the defense of marriage act back in the ninety's you know the one that said that a marriage is only between a man and a woman and that really became the reason that many same sex married couples never

got the same rights all the same privileges as petra sexual couples where is that but actually you know what never mind because it's since been brought up by john ellis and joe gave a really convincing defense in 1906 you voted for the defense of marriage act. and a lovely person i am then there are a couple of pages about his colleges where they are quote he spent one summer as the only white lifeguard at a pool and in black neighborhood it's a reward thing to point out isn't it well but barely it was then that joe learned foster about the struggles of black america you know i wonder if it was the. so when those he has the house he decided he wasn't big on the whole integration of races and schools saying that if on controlled they could cause real problems unless we do something about this my children are going to grow up in a jungle the jungle being

a racial jungle with tensions bills are high that is going to explode at some point but when he does that mucks up he did it off to roll defender of black pos mate when he was refused service in a joint hit they off you think this this is what really counts not using your power as a u.s. senate such trial and segregation possibly the biggest racial injustice in modern history anyway moving on hold up here's a cute picture of him with the little guy commuting to washington while some things never change. as a politician joe wanted to quote make people's lives better you know i think that's what the real motivation was behind his backing of the iraq invasion saddam is dangerous the world would be a better place without him and of course the welfare of nippy and was at the

forefront of his mind when he said a ok to bombing a homeland give the people of libya for the 1st chance in 4 decades to actually put together their own government have a little bit of freedom the opportunity but hung on not chop dismissiveness whoa how strange oh but this is my favorite my favorite part of the entire book and it's this treasure trove of uncle joe's most famous catchphrases so called fighting as i say you can be inspired to go around saying things like your kids are just as brave just as challenge week use hot ones nor hear well how about we truth truth over facts. it was also not included ok well but definitely you cannot go to a very little work. going to worship a sure you do next note while maybe that keeping it for the sequel which fingers

crossed will face off in the new york times bestseller list of fiction with a book written by men narnia trump telling a story of a young donnie who only have a drug but of reaching out and tearing down walls. suskind title there you can watch the weekly here on r.t. don't forget plenty of stories too on our website you can find those but i see them . here segregated anywhere by social class laws full of us people that are also in poverty of a 1st class if you're born into a poor family ocular born into a minority family if you're born into a family that only has a single parent that really constrains your life chances people die on average 15 years old if you're born into generational poverty. it's

a tough fight every day so you meet your needs and the needs of your family. the world is driven by shaped by one person or those. who dares thinks. we dare to ask. problems drugs don't always come from unscrupulous dealers but from pharmacies to in every state in the united states we see me very sharp increase in the number of

people seeking treatment for addiction to prescription opioids and invited to america under the banner of medicine persisted with the pain but instead of trying to wean him off though she just goes at their dose after dose after those. and really became his drug dealer so who's to blame patients doctors manufacturers or the government will. join me every thursday on the alex i will be sure and i'll be speaking to get a feel of the world of politics or business i'm show business i'll see a. bar .

called welcome to worlds apart or do you just ignore any inconvenience studies the american scientist charged with obstructing the use dietary guidelines have finally soured on sugar recommending an almost youthful reduction in daily consumption for bald adults and children with almost 60 percent of americans suffering from a distant one died in tuesday's disease and therefore facing an much higher risk of call that night in complications did vice things long overdue you but is it strong enough jurors the obesity and other related pandemics well to discuss death i'm now joined by marion nestle a professor emeritus of nutrition foods that is in public health at new york university and bestselling author preston that's the last time such

a big fan of yours thank you very much for it means it talks i'm very happy to be here thanks now for most of our international audience the u.s. dietary guidelines napalm across as obscure boring manuscript that hats. little i don't know an impact on that on lives but i happen to believe that this is actually one of the most impactful public health documents in the world with influence often harmful influence spanning far beyond the united states is that an exaggeration well if it doesn't summarize or not others really know what healthy diets are dietary recommendations have not changed since the 1st recommendation started getting issues for chronic disease vention in the 1950 the basic dietary recommendations are balance calorie intake date a lot of fruits and vegetables and to avoid foods that have

a. special rated set salted sugar in the day to guidelines for americans who sit at the end every 5 years since 1980 s. and the newer ones are going to say exactly the same things because we know what a healthy diet is well but you know as you like to see it it definitely is and the details add to well better or is the united states as projecting a lot of power on the rest of the well people want to be like the americans they want to eat like the americans they want to business like the americans and it may be good in other areas but when it comes to nutrition and public how is that really that have other countries want you to follow because they doesn't accommodations that react talking about their influencing school lunches they're influencing what people have sat in hospital there influencing what people get a chance at setter and a large degree they're also influencing the behavior of the practices of big

multinational that could easily. yeah they're enormously influential in the odd ways but they're written in a euphemism and they're written in you from isms because it's politically impossible in the united states to advise eating less of the anything that has a industry behind it that makes a lot of money. as i'm going to say over and over again we know what a healthy diet is it means not eating too much for one for one thing and eating less is very very bad for business it doesn't make anybody rich if people eat less food other coated 19 pandemic has illustrated how reported it is for people to eat healthily because the people who are at very high risk for this.
