after dose after dose after dose and really became his drug dealer who's to blame patients doctors manufacturers. are headline stories this hour u.s. officials raised the chinese consulate in houston right after its vacated on washington's orders. as the u.s. secretary of state called on all the nations to join forces. also and this. morning with this is another night of chaos as u.s. federal troops used rubber bullets to break up a crowd of. facemask takes effect ending the failure to wear them in public places. but so far the reaction.

i think it's important to about it because i think there's a lot of times that goes behind i think we should it be plenty from the beginning. in jerusalem to right here in moscow this on line 20 welcome to the program my names you know neal. the chinese foreign ministry has accused the u.s. of violating international law by breaking into its consulate in houston. to retaliate the american agents were seen forcing their way through the back door right after chinese officials were required to vacate the building the raid happened on friday. president of the us ordered the closure earlier in the week

accusing beijing of stealing intellectual property while the justice department claimed consular staff for obstructing an investigation meanwhile in the chinese city of chengdu the american slave has been shot down in a tit for tots measure and a mum there was seen taking rubbish bags out of the building one of the splits on appeared to contain the spread. well in a related development a chinese research your husband arrested in san francisco. is accused of not this closing her military affiliations in her visa application she's one of 4 visiting researchers who has been accused of visa fraud beijing's condemn the crackdown and urging the united states to stop harassing chinese students and researchers will quarter looks out the ongoing escalation. since the 1970 s. u.s.

foreign policy has used more honey than vinegar and its dealings with beijing china has definitely changed as a result but not exactly the way washington wanted it to you know the world was much different than we imagine think you shouldn't which and it would produce a future with bright promise of comedy and cooperation. but today today we're all still wearing masks and watching the pandemics body count rise because the c.c.p. failed in its promises to the world if we want to have a free 21st century and not the chinese century of which dreams. the old paradigm of blinding gauge with china simply won't get it done speech seems to have a lot in common with that of winston churchill's when he declared an iron curtain had descended across europe dividing it into soviet and western spheres it was the beginning of the cold war and with pump ails us against them rhetoric another cold war between the u.s. and china may be brewing this isn't about containment don't buy that. it's about

a complex new challenge that we've never faced before. the u.s.s.r. was closed off from the free world communist china is already within our borders washington's hostile stance is no doubt part of a recent pitfall in sino u.s. relations while waistband in the u.s. accusations of tech that disputes in the south china sea it's all reminding experts of a warning former president richard nixon made decades ago we must cultivate join a jury in the next few decades want it is learning to develop its national strength and potential otherwise we will one day be confronted with the most of the middle enemy that has ever existed in the history of the world unfortunately for washington nixon was right when he was president china was still an economically backwards country with its eyes on rapid development fast forward to the present and the communist parties accomplished much of what it set out to do it's lifted millions out of abject poverty it led the country to. what looks like

a quick recovery from the covert 1000 pandemic it doesn't seem willing to stop in the face of washington statements. remarks which ignore facts and often of ideological bias and cold war mentality are a hodgepodge of political lies intensively made recently by senior u.s. officials accusations of human rights abuses authoritarian name calling pompei was even labeled china's system a new tyranny it does all sound a bit crusading but then again it's nothing new in america's foreign policy playbook the troika of tyranny in this hemisphere cuba venezuela and nicaragua has finally met its match pressers regimes and ideologies forces of oppression to tell a tear in ism and domination well despite the trumpet ministrations best efforts the so-called troika of tyranny is still around even where u.s. backed regime change was successful it's still no walk in the park in iraq the government is basically powerless to combat militias that see it as

a us puppet and in countries where the u.s. failed like venezuela it's a huge waste of taxpayer money china though is a lot more powerful and with u.s. allies unwilling to get behind this new strategy pelle might need to rethink his approach because. the world has already. started and actually in my opinion the show corners code to work between china and america has now much talk during a positive because the united states has never spoke to you know we are thinking of cold war talk to wouldn't do thinking about it china who were very clear which country we tracked him an issue to me is more. in the war in the war definitely specially issue a decision to question for many people to understand i think that if you do united stated do you really need to and ruling in interference into other countries.

domestic affairs. well let's stay stateside because he had another standoff is unfolding in the city of portland on friday night federal troops fired tear gas rubber bullets all a crowd of activists who were marching on the courthouse police say there were brutal clashes between rioters with one person still. federal forces were sent in earlier this week bali president trying to quell anti

racism protests some residents and business owners of complained their city has been turned into a war zone by the violent riots but more than a dozen u.s. murders most of them democrats voice the alarm over the federal crack down on the u.n. is now lobbying its concern over the security response. to peaceful demonstrations that have been taking place and citizen the u.s. such a sport really must be able to continue with that those positions beaten them and i'll say the people reporting and the journalists risk arbitrary address to detach being subject to unnecessary disproportionate discriminants or use of force or suffering other violations of the rights well since the riot started in portland 18 people have been arrested on charges including arson vandalism we heard from some of those who have been taking to the street. that card drum circle.

just started. 33 from the 1st. thing we have to go with just right with the rubber. at night. so. we. can revert. to another headline stories this hour to an event where face coverings are now among the tree in all public spaces but it's raised the question over who should monitor a compliance major retailers and smaller shops too are saying it's not up to them to enforce the new rules or u.k. correspondent sally reports. provide a it's now mandatory for people in england to wear a face mask when they go to shop the supermarket or they go to pick up a delivery now we're going to go on to the streets of london to try to see what the

public think they should done this before coronavirus went into lockdown the fact that it's running one people 100 pounds. and probably money out of people's health just that that kind of public picture of government. i think we should have been implementing from the beginning. i think it's important to abide by these rules visit think there's a lot of science that goes behind coming up with these rules most of the shops that i went into weren't really forcing the rules those that were just said that they would recommending people to where mosques to cover their faces now many of those shop workers don't want to be enforcing those rules because they fear aggression and backlash from certain members of the public if they were to try to make people wear masks with hundreds of incidents of violence and abuse directed at retail stuff every day we welcome then ousmane that in force meant to be left to their thoughts rather than potentially put in hard work in retail colleagues in harms way

if. someone refuses to wear a face mask probably we can kindly asked him to leave but as to enforcing it it's not it's viable it will be certain people who would be upset about it. and indeed the most controlling boss for us also as well is a weekend in short if we don't always encourage people to have it but. god knows how we've done and sort of the government of said that those who refused to wear face masks when going into shops could be fined up to $100.00 pounds should an individual without an exemption refuse to wear a face covering a shop can refuse them entry and can call the police if people refuse to comply the police have formal him. pounds and can issue a fine and the police don't seem to be too keen either saying that making them in force that is both unrealistic and unfair policing the wearing of face coverings in

shops can't be a priority because we simply don't have the resources to expect my colleagues to be policing the supermarket aisles looking for those shoppers not wearing a face covering is unrealistic and unfair the u.k. has had one of the worst coronavirus death tolls of any country around the world there are some who say that these measures are better late than never but many others who feel but it's far too little thought through like easily all the. people in the far eastern russian city of high bar offs are protesting for a 3rd consecutive weekend in support of their former governor he was arrested earlier this month on allegations of ordering murders 15 years ago r t senior correspondent rocco's the it picks up the story. 7 the way in the region of the bottom of the pacific ocean there are very different opinions on the entire affair the entire case of sergei for go he was arrested on very serious charges and

this was a high profile arrest the suspicion of organizing the kidnapping in the mud multiple entrepreneurialism and these cases divided russians all over the country the official statistics that we've heard is 6500 people attending this demonstration unofficial reports going up 220000 people are still angry they demand the dismissal of these cases a little i went out into the streets because i could not take it anymore i'm boiling over and sat with support for girl who want justice to prevail did you don't like the political situation in the country i am dissatisfied with our government and officials it is a simple as that society has matured to the point of expressing its indignation about what is happening in the far east sygate for god himself has maintained his innocence throughout and says he looks forward to the investigation against the

being brought to an end is also enjoyed a lot of popularity of street. reputation as a governor who cares a governor who has an ear to the concerns of constituents and voters he's made a habit of dressing down very publicly officials that have either been incompetent to. 'd saudi work is temporary replacement dictator of hasn't been welcomed with open arms protests to say that he doesn't belong he has no ties to the region and that you know that much prefer old government nevertheless the new governor says he's there to stay and he's going to do a good job. let's respect each other let's work together as i've been doing for food days in the governor's office. i came here all of your complaints are taken into account so that all government bodies work smoothly i will spend the weekend on a trip around school region. still the new governor and protesters are at loggerheads

because the protesters who gather in these huge crowds they say he is or refuse to come out and to speak with them to engage with them which is the sides of of week this fear iyam self says he has the job to waste that there is a lot to be done that the big show everything runs smoothly that there is a smooth transition in the use of divides the protests the stop attending be these needless and meaningless protests that instead devote the energy and enthusiasm to volunteer work for example. are going through the situation and how bad off script in solidarity with the protests their rallies have taken place here in moscow according to local media police arrested between 15 and 14 people of all north arise gatherings in the center of the capital the activists were on the way to the russian prosecutor general's office to submit a petition in support of mr for

put down at that work the founder of modern turkey so this is an attack also against the demolished regime in turkey so basically it's an it's an internal problem that has international ramifications i don't think that he cares anything about statements being done the only thing that she might care would be if concrete measures were taken like the e.u. taking sanctions against against turkey for violating international law and violating that there are real integrity of 2 of its member states which is greece and cyprus we must not forget that the e.u. has taken sanctions against russia for reasons much less. and which which i personally don't don't agree with them and yet it refuses or the moment to take sanctions against turkey. the chief of a u.k.
