and it emerges that his evidence boils down to a barroom conversation. very well welcome to you you're watching the weekly here on our team international with all the latest news on the roundup of the stories that shape the week. but we start with the story has dominated headlines for some time now donald trump has agreed to stop gradually pulling federal militia from the stricken city of portland oregon and after local authorities pleaded for a cease fire the u.s. president has been cracking down on the occasionally violent black lives matter protests which have been simmering there for months but paul and city officials say trump has gone too far.

meanwhile it seems that trump stance on the rest is changing on an almost daily basis after initially promising to withdraw homeland security officers from portland and then of threatened to bring in the national guard however trump changed his mind again saying homeland security is staying until order is restored while live pictures from up poland right now where it's saturday night had rallies

are currently nonviolent now among the protest groups these wall of moms who back a lawsuit against the government for violence against peaceful demonstrators police say more than 400 have been arrested for the city's protests began on tuesday a house judiciary committee haring laid bare the political divisions on how the national press have all seen. you and writers and artists have hijacked legitimate protest to reach senseless tragic and destruction on innocent victims we've seen mothers and we've seen veterans who were peacefully protesting not threatening the federal courthouse beaten and gagged people are surely not because the troops are there shame on you mr barr can i just say mr iemma you know just in time is expired. one quarter looks now at how the world's policeman is struggling to keep the pace on its own streets. politics a catalyst for social unrest on both sides of the barricades especially in portland

protesters have armed themselves and attacked federal agents in turn trump's administration has deployed heavily armed soldiers to put a lid on the situation now the city's mayor is calling for a truce. commissioner joanne hardesty and i are calling for an immediate meeting with department of homeland security leadership on the ground in portland and with the acting secretary of the department chair to both to discuss a cease fire and removal of heightened federal forces from portland a cease fire with its own citizens is the u.s. crossing over the line from social unrest to something more serious judge for yourself. some are calling this trumps electoral battlefield and he is calling in

reinforcements perhaps to maintain his persona as a law and order president as the violence continues to snowball today i'm announcing a surge of federal law enforcement in 2 american communities plagued by violent crime will work every single day to restore public safety protect our nation's children and bring violent perpetrators to justice but seattle's liberal mayor is blaming trump for the mayhem and in fact i think the president's actions said directly escalated and worst responsible for what happened this weekend i was just talking to a number of mayors throughout the country who saw a similar thing that people wanting to act out against the president and his administration coming to the streets and other mayors from across america are also calling out trump to congress this is ministrations agree just use of federal force and city jackson forward to this should never happen. who knows if democrats and

republicans will ever see eye to eye on what's happening if you listen to what both sides are saying about the unrest it's like they're talking about 2 different events violent rioters and anarchists have hijacked legitimate protests to wreak senseless havoc in destruction on innocent victims federal agents dressed in military fatigues and toting military gear have teargassed peaceful protest is made unlawful arrest without probable cause and otherwise used violence in an effort to stamp out peaceful and constitutionally protected protests washington is quick to flag social unrest in other countries and the so-called anti-democratic crackdowns that follow when the same thing happens on u.s. soil will americans get their democracy. a london mother is accusing police that of racially profiling her family that's after her 12 year old son kai was dragged from the house during the night and handcuffed all because his toy gun was suspected of being the real thing i mean. talk us through what happened. but

midnight or not for a day that just crossed over into early hours of the morning and. in the living room. you know cause i went to the door i followed him and he just was with you know about 4 or 5 offices holding wife or. red beams. on our bodies our heads. something of a movie. all of us to have a daughter as you see on the sky obviously in front of may we were just. explaining firearms or any illegal in the house my son. was on. he had no shoes on and they just arrested him immediately.

dozens of officers descended on the family's home with sniffer dogs and found 12 year old car and his plastic pellet toy gun the raid came after a passer by alerted police saying a black male holding a firearm on the sofa was seen through the living room window all kinds mother says the metropolitan police racially profiled her family which she says has never been in trouble with the law before london police chief say there has been no misconduct and that the boy was let go when it was clear the toy gun was not real well that said the case is still being referred to the independent office for police conduct or they describe the effect it's had on a family. sure. this the least i was angry is well one wants the consequent away then that feeling of you know why he did nothing wrong in our own home 'd qualified to even making in a roundabout way they just before the fire was reports take them seriously we have to follow that mark which i will agree with we just disagree on how they follow up

but mainly they would say you know the gang related crime in the area the fact that clive was a male there was a mention of him being a black male obviously you know in the report all the face things you know they take very seriously. the chief the superintendent and he started talking about operation trident he started talking about you know getting laid quiet and making those associations and he read me out but i thought that was made by the class the by and there was very little evidence there at all but that was the fact it was a black man. from casinos to hotels to office blocks the name trump is plastered on many prime addresses but an israeli settlement named after the u.s. president as i thank you for his backing in a territorial dispute is looking much less resplendent artie's policy has more.

what does president trump love more than seeing his name in golden letters on a big sign well praise and recognition one would say and here in northern israel he's got both trump heights in the middle of nowhere a thank you from benjamin netanyahu to his american body for doing what most of the international community would not recognize this is the golan heights as part of israel you have been an incredible friend for israel and you've done extraordinary things for the jewish state which we are eternally grateful to much fanfare and celebrations you might imagine an idyllic place but the 1st thing you see is the settlement gate which doesn't close completely and there's a gap here through which i can just go into the but jari gets into it and then you find that no boulevard or fancy entrance leading into the village instead of hot overgrown with weeds and piles of stone a far cry from what you'd expect the entrance into trump heights would look like when you think of a place not even a 2nd chance you see this this building used to be the common law say to the

regional village for him and now 80 although he's been a fantasy name change a new settlement has filtered tracked many residents today less than a dozen lives here and right now no one seems to be. so alone is there any one poem hello. israel captured this territory from syria during the 19676 day war and later and mexted 981 now most of the international community considers that annexation illegal and does not consider the golan heights as part of israel locals don't take it seriously either because i think it's not a good location it's very heart it's a neglected area and i simply don't know why people go to live there for us it's a job still going to this is going to want to see because we think it's all roads are going to get. sued. there's

a very group which is this is an american issue. israeli government says plans are underway to eventually house 300 families but in the years since truck prices beeman overrated nothing's been done maybe it doesn't even matter has been bestowed the facts on marginal after all we live in an era of fake news as president trying to get likes to see. r.t. trump heights northern israel. now u.s. china relations are at a long time low with a further downturn on friday president trouble who took aim at chinese video sharing app to talk the writing that his days may be numbered in the u.s. . well look you know jetstar we may be very good so are we maybe doing some other things or double bathrooms trump reportedly said that he was banning sick talk suggesting it may be a done deal and on monday the stars and stripes were lowered at the u.s.

consulate in the chinese city of chengdu bets off the beijing ordered it to close but was retaliation for america's order to shut china's consulate in houston texas and the 2 countries have been trading accusations. as far as closing 'd additional embassies it's always possible they were burning documents or burning papers from. the chinese sites requirement. that the us consulate general in china just to point to in response to the justifiable behavior of the us we need a strategy to protect the american economy and indeed our way of life through free world must strike over this new tyranny if the free world. doesn't change governments trying to surely change. the date with a new t.v. history channel in the u.s. relations. claiming one wants to democracy and freedom we'll be taken by no means

represent these ideals. american hegemony and the interests behind him. last week firefighters were called into the houston mission after police said consulate workers were burning documents in the front yard local authorities claim they were getting rid of incriminating evidence of the consulate officials that they were given just 72 hours to shut down but not everyone in the u.s. is hot on going off to china with american filmmakers seemingly doing their best not to abate during the wrong way artie's downhole can't explain. the u.s. and china have entered a cold war style standoff corp on multiple fronts is an old time low and one could assume the movie business is no exception after all why should hollywood pander to beijing kollywood now regularly censors its own movies to appease the chinese communist party the world's most powerful violator of human rights even the u.s. state secretary. was scathing in

a recent speech in hollywood not too far from here the epic center of american creative freedom and self-appointed arbiters of social justice. self-censorship even the most mildly unfavorable reference to china so is it really worth it it turns out it is last year china contributed $9200000000.00 to the global box office that's almost a quarter of global movie ticket sales while hollywood may have limited access to the chinese market viewing figures from asia can often make or break a movie and the bank. is going to the world. of the. universe. but to get its hands on a slice of the money hollywood needs to tread carefully china is

a tough client despite having the 2nd largest film market in the world beijing is protective allowing only around $40.00 foreign movies per year so hollywood has to compromise to fill all the slots but we all know that he who pays the piper calls the tune the us lets china call the shots when it comes to the fine detail in movies this could be patrolling the chinese as the good guys think 2012 or gravity to make their way to the space station. but they. said the government is building these ships. surjective. which are you. cutting out offensive taiwanese flags from the top of the sequel or making sure key characters aren't of tibetan origin beijing could simply cancel the release of a movie deemed offensive that once upon

a time in hollywood was scrapped partly because of the portrayal of bruce lee we get into a fight i accidentally killed. i go to jail. the upcoming milan movie has had a kissing scene cut to avoid a similar fate some even speculate that actors who displease beijing disappeared from the really big screen apparently richard gere got too friendly with the dalai lama too involved in supporting tibet no more movies with him in china perhaps you could be replaced with a chinese counterpart after all more chinese actors are being hired to satisfy the growing demand. for me is the force of will. to lucian. question me soldiers want to come into some of my jobs. is going to break out of every single one of the trumpet ministration has been moving away from the current order with their stand up to china slogan but there's little turner tive how can

that be when even global giants like apple have to play by china's rules of market access so it's unlikely hollywood will change any time soon when it comes to choosing between politics and profit the film industry will pick up the latter every time after all show business is just that a business. and watching r.t. international still to come in italy plans to send the military into sicily after scores of refugees escaped quarantine and fled at attention then we'll be back with this animal after the break. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe.

welcome back a secret quote subsoil force for the notorious private intelligence report which failed to link donald trump to russian collusion in 2016 has been revealed and it turns out it's a u.s. residence rather than the supposed russia based source so as he goes down of explains a lot of the dossier seem to rely on chance between drinking buddies. it was a dossier that some prophesies would spell doom for donald trump as president and as a human being with any shred of decency the document penned by still spread like wildfire across the media spilling way beyond the u.s. borders the dossier the dossier that controversial document it alleges overt knowing collusion while unconfirmed accusations was shell to cool the file salacious would be an understatement the claim that trump hired prostitutes to pee all over a bed at

a luxury moscow hotel simply because the obama's once slipped in was just one of the highlights but trump's enemies believed wanted to believe after all the mysterious incognito informant was said to have infiltrated the in a most of russia's circle well turns out the russians was in fact a bar fly in the us former journalist and now analyst igor duncan go apparently admitted that he got his information from people he was hitting the bottle with primary subsurface and source for drink heavily together and source for always looks forward to getting together with source for when primary sub sources in town are you when go as far as calling him an alcoholic but it looks like some might duncan go might have boozed so hard that even got him into legal trouble but

nobody's perfect the f.b.i. thought a little party never killed nobody the state department agreed delirious drunken drivel you might say but america needs to know him because he fell in with information united states government should have some lawyer when he developed the information relating to 2016. there's assault on our democracy and interference in our elections he felt it was important that the us government be aware of it and you'd think that the revelation about the sources credibility or rather the lack of it would be the main line in the us media but who am i kidding the new york times for instance confirming these sources identity a whole week after the story broke has been fanning suspicion about these website for publishing the story on time a news website posting news the outrage russian is always the eternal bogeyman in the american media no it's not quite sure why but it's been that way

since the cold war and they've refused to let go of it it's go to berlin so most democrat voters most media people were journalists were not really know what the point of. from seclusion russia non-existing cruiser with russia might be how that might jeopardize national security they just see a scary word like russia and they run with it with the election less than a 100 days away who knows maybe another installment will cool out of the woodwork to seed the intelligence rumor mill. italy has long struggle to handle waves of my clients crossing the mediterranean and kind of a crisis is intensifying the problem the government said it will send troops to sicily i thought the schools are refugees that dodged quarantine and learnt from a detention center.

my a big concern is the risk to public health if any of the migrants are carrying covert the italian foreign minister says instance like bees damage efforts to contain the pandemic and local leaders are also fuming. security and people's health are the most important things and must be supported by everybody but we don't understand why poetry and productively is the main or the only talent poor for disembarking migrants. now this is we're still facing prove that 19 people are so scared when they look in the street listen becoming public. this is proven by

the fact that i'm receiving constant calls on the migrants. the travel restrictions designed to keep covert at bay are helpless with illegal crossings from north africa but when both south east the refugees are put into a 14 day quarantine problem is the detention centers are getting crowded and social distancing is all but impossible so opposition politicians now want to go further and stop the boats from docking it to tally imports altogether the italian government recently approved funds to help libya's coast guard but that has angered non-governmental organizations and human rights groups protesting in rome who accuse coastguards of being complicit in people smuggling and torture. italy with this decision on the libyan cause god is repeated for the. violations of

the fundamental rights of people the proofs that they. normally torture and rape when it i believe it isn't just the only place in government. for the little government it's only to store new waves of migration. dress and the conditions and the human drives and. that we spoke with the president of the italian think tank future nation he thinks that the e.u. needs to do more to help. this is our government it is the selfie tell you and especially in the cecily's is out of control is not only a problem for our county but it is the big problem for all of the european union so folks that read war logs from the repeal of the union to try to stop the illegal or legal threat and also meet we need to to help this sound equipment it without even noticing that i think i and the european union must help us in this situation

whether the regular meet ups are a bit in the hell are guaranteed the right said the european human and economic problems because we need to spend a lot of money to detroit to contrast the irregular and in this case specific moment did we need money to help it they tell us because there are a lot of industries that are a bit difficult because of the color bios. thanks for joining us here on r.t. international this sunday we're going to back in 30 minutes with the latest you'll see that.

we go to work you straight home. how can you explain love i've been to 82 countries i've given 12 but i came here and on those 3 days i just filled with hope. and he kept pretty isn't it sick show. i made my decision to come here because i felt i knew i could build a new life see it with the. companies and stows a free man but i think god decided that this money is no good to be free pro-style it would only. then did you know. my one dream is that all my children find the same kind of happiness i do. i love my home i love cold weather

i like the culture i like the history i like everything about it almost it on those months and i know that i. am a russian fama. i . know team no crowd. no shots. actions speak. let's draw no arrests no. points. her thirst for action.

ringback and the sounds ringback of. a. fearful match to the us begins when you ask a kid to rather you dance that truly go beneath. the beach. or so i started to bear for. me and by north korean people from a comprehensive piece of the border even said to be sending. i'm not kill.
