i say very modestly that i have done more for the african-american community than any president since abraham lincoln. as black lives massive protests and go for. weeks politicians are using young rest that in this year's election campaign. also german chancellor angela merkel maintains that russia's new giant gas project to europe must go ahead despite high tensions over prominent opposition figure. and on the 1st time of the truth the death teenager u.k. authorities consider a virtual trial for the wife of a u.s. diplomat accused of killing him and then fleeing the country she was the last

person to risk it is absolutely clear and albert the united states government does not have either a legal or moral. and a disturbing report finds that muslims get disproportionate coverage when you can use in terrorists and stories that is despite of the groups being far more likely to commit attacks. hello good afternoon you with national just gone 3 o'clock here in moscow protests have been held outside the white house while dong trump was giving his reelection speech. hundreds try to disrupt the event some carrying black lives. but that didn't stop the president from claiming he's done more for black people than almost all his predecessors. and i say very modestly that i have done more for the african american jimmy. knitty than any president since abraham lincoln was the

1st republican president who would and i have done more in 3 years for the black community then joe biden has done in 47 years we win when i'm reelected the best is yet to come it was however his trump wrapped up the republican national convention there with his boast on the african-american community furious black lives massive protest has pulled on to the streets of cannot half the sunday shooting of a black man i would have warning you might find the following footage disturbing. was cool. thanks. i.

thought. i. had a mop and looks now how can i show that has become a crucial polling in the us election czeska. cars bernie guns firing people looting images that have become all too familiar in the united states as of late an archaean action on the streets has got politicians pointing fingers at each other republicans are even staking their reelection efforts on a tough law and order stance saying that democratic governors have let the situation get out of hand results when failed to fish rules in cities like portland minneapolis chicago and new york made a conscious decision not to support law enforcement to buy once and bloodshed we

are seeing in these and other cities it isn't happening by chance it's a direct result of a refusing to allow law enforcement to protect our communities leftist try to turn the meant of elephants they want to cancel them. but i'm here to tell you these heroes can't be canceled from seattle and portland to washington and new york democrat run cities across this country are being overrun by violent mobs those statements from the south dakota governor did not make it past leftist media which called for a reality check we will interject when we feel like there's something that's important and deliberate and very wrong that should be corrected just so that we feel responsible about our broadcast other news outlets got much the same for suggesting local authorities are responsible for the violence how shocked are we that 17 year olds with rifles decided they had to maintain order when no one else

would this goes beyond racism tucker carlson is advocating and defending murder how shocked are we the tucker carlson is praising a murderer as some kind of vigilante hero democrats are taking those blame claims and throwing them right back in the face of conservatives saying that they're the ones that ferment it they hate to begin with the question for us this concern is when are we going to make republicans do their jobs or do we continued sit idly by and watch the saide burn to the ground. our nation is hurting we need leadership that will heal our wounds not continue to pour salt on them peaceful protest against police violence should not be met with more violence and yet that's exactly what the president called for after the death of george floyd and here at home as george full oid briana taylor and a never ending list of innocent people of color continue to be murdered stating the

simple fact that a black life matters is still met with derision from the nation's highest office as media and politicians blame each other some us citizens are taking up arms on their own in juneau shit wisconsin a teenager said to worship the police went to a protest and opened fire on the crown 2 people were killed the local police then shined in on their own saying that the victims were to blame because they were on the streets in violation of curfew laws this is not a police action this is not the action i believe of those who set out to do protests it isn't all it is the persons who are involved after the legal time involved in illegal activity that brought violence to this community this teenager is not the only one the right wing militia groups and black self-defense organizations have sprung up across the country while politicians point the finger the situation on the streets is only getting worse across the country people are

bracing for turbulent times ahead i think that the political game going on on the side and both sides you've got the democratic side trying to to blame the president for during racial unrest and i don't know floyd group that and you've got you've got the republican side saying that especially the pin pointing the finger at democratic leaders and democratic city is that the leadership there is not take me appropriate action. no law and order. needs to be a middle some point we do need law and order we need to provide security and. security for our businesses especially small bedroom i feel bad for small but they were sold here by the coronavirus and those little wondering being impacted a lot on this by only the unfortunately the real situation but both parties are using a political weapon. now the german chancellor has rebuffed calls in the wake of the

alexina valmy case to ditch the mash the massive nord stream 2 gas projects from russia angela merkel added that the gas pipeline to europe must go ahead despite unproven mainstream media claims that the kremlin poisoned the prominent opposition activists let's get more on this story now go to berlin where our correspondents there for us peter all of a good afternoon pay to just go through then some of the the main takeaways of merkel speeches are. well the coronavirus dominators and permeated almost every question that she was asked as you may well imagine but the chancellor also touched on bella reuss on the dispute going on between greece and turkey on quotas for women in senior positions in the cd party if you had any questions on the chances position she's in favor of it but there was also time for questions about alexei navalny the russian opposition

figure has been in hospital here in berlin since last saturday and he's being treated for an alleged poisoning now merkel said that germany was in a limited position when it came to determining what actually happened to alexa in the valley and said that she would be looking to a joint statement on the case. we're trying to clarify things in can finally through our own abilities which are in fact limited when we have more clarity like in the case of mr scruple who will try to forge a reaction on the european level. well alexei in the valley also. came in to be involved in talk about the nord stream to gas pipeline there has been some pressure on angle americal to drop the north stream to project it's a huge multi-billion dollar pipeline taking gas from russia directly into germany the chancellor though cementing germany's position on this. i think that

we should be coupled these issues and in our opinion north trying to should be completed. or because of alex in the valley they has been a lot of pressure on angle of merkel as i said not pressure particularly coming from here in germany as well as the united states. but i'm increasingly convinced the germany should pull out of the nord stream to project russia's president putin is turning increasingly into a dictator who persecutes opponents including by means of poisoning attempts the poisoning attack on the russian opposition leader must lead to targeted reaction the baltic sea nordstrom to should not go into operation. the chancellor remain steadfast that german and e.u. energy security should not become politicized the united states has been against north stream too since the beginning they want to squeeze russia out of the e.u.

the energy sector they want the e.u. to buy the united states is only liquefied natural gas the problem with that though it's much more expensive than piping gas directly from russia and not seems to be exactly what's going to be happening from here on out. or ok thank you peter peter all of the reporting from berlin. a year to the day since 19 year old harry dunn was killed in the u.k. attorney general says the american woman accused of running him over and then fleeing the country could face a virtual trial he died when his motorbike was hit by a car reportedly being driven on the wrong side of the road allegedly behind the wheel was answered kulis the wife of a u.s. diplomat after being charged with causing death by dangerous driving she then fled the u.k. claiming she had diplomatic immunity the done family sought a private prosecution against britain's foreign secretary after it was revealed the

u.k. officials letter leave the country the victim's parents say that they won't give up in their bid for justice and spoke to r.t. shadi edwards dashti. the hardest thing for me is having no control over when you're going to cry no to camilla big guy. or don't show emotions are easy but since i was going it can cite the most smallest thing i know i'll just start crying or car stop myself. as much film. and the frustration i feel because our current congress wrote it only feels like yesterday since that was if it carries think. the same lane. and. feel like. harry's pammy are fighting to bring securitas back to the u.k. to face justice 6 months after his death she was charged with death by dangerous

driving but britain's extradition request was rejected by the u.s. it's been a tough tough battle for this family we've had to not just climb mountains but move mountains because having now closed the loophole the legal loophole that allowed her to escape she was the last person to escape it is absolutely clear now that the united states government does not have either a legal or moral dog to stand on the authorities and the system completely let harry's family down this family lost their son and they were treated like dirt on the bottom of their shoe that legal loophole allowed secure lists to claim diplomatic immunity as the wife of a u.s. staff member but after discussions between the u.s. and u.k. family at the base can now be prosecuted going forward thankfully with the harries an amendment in the treaty a few weeks back absolutely every a shows us is the family that know what the family would have to fight it's the way

we have nobody else now it's the crying such as well and skilless has done and walk free is a proud thing to know that i was not. it is part of the new rule in history books thankfully that cherry's some of our legacy now but despite that glimmer of hope it doesn't help charlotte and tim get justice for harry himself in the promise i made him when we lost him that night just burns the desire in the pit of your stomach to complete that promise you tell your poorly you look at him to get him justice when he's layin there no life left in him. literally every bone in its body. every organ damage to the point we couldn't even do organ donation and. someone has to be held responsible that nobody in this world should be able to take a life that will kill whether they

a year run from harry's death the family are still unable to come to terms with their loss. results. are truly mean no. special special. little the lust for life he enjoyed life enjoyed meeting people he was larger than life as they say was the word. he could have been more proud of so slow and before last at primary school. over 10. and this is not true is that you can tell. in the speech school who was cool with them away inside and out and. still not quite. as it would to him. and on the wall.

and you know that. and it can't. just come a quarter past 3 here in moscow now a new report has accused the u.k. media of disproportionately focusing on terror attacks carried out by muslims even though attacks carried out by white supremacists near in our cities are more frequent those perpetrated by muslims get 9 times the coverage the muslim council of britain did note however that the imbalance has improved since the christchurch and el paso attacks where muslims were the victims we discussed the report with one of its authors. what we've done is not make assumptions we have got very detailed analysis and statistics that we pulled from monitoring the media on a daily basis. yes and looking at how they report on it and we've compared very similar attacks committed by so-called muslim perpetrators and those by the far

right and white supremacists and found that there's been a huge inconsistency and difference in the way those attacks are are covered there is far more of a. willingness on the part of the media to use the term terror terrorist of terrorism exclusively for muslims and it's very rare that they use it for far right we see a rise of hate crimes you know even after christ's church when muslims were the victims the the rates of hate crimes increased in britain and even in the coverage of christchurch we found that the media tried to find an angle which brought it back to trying to blame the muslims so you know these attacks not as a result of muslim terrorist attacks all you know rotheram so-called muslim grouping gangs. well farai terror attacks are on the rise of muslims often the victims the mash eating at

a mosque in christ church and also be able passive attack and sex is to obvious examples along with the recent shooting at a she should bar in germany in which 11 people died now at the same time the number of attacks by muslims in western countries are falling and experts to attribute that the recent the escalation of tensions in the middle east as it stands far right extremists do carry out almost 3 times more terror attacks in the west than islamist groups although more than 60 percent of terrorism incidents are not attributed to any group at all however the disproportionate reporting of them does have consequences organizations should have clear definitions of what terrorism is make them transparent and then be consistent in their use of the repercussions of this and not only in terms of hate crimes that increase against muslims but it's the impact this has on social media so when a mainstream organization makes this point it's 58 you know and spread to

millions and millions of people because the far right uses this kind of coverage to amplify their troops and their anti muslim rhetoric and so it's very dangerous. you're watching r.t. still ahead nato unity takes another blow is turkey and greece up the ante over disputed saying borders will have a look at this story because of the just after the break. there is also something of mining and there is no inflation and there is no deflate . the only thing there is to think about our interest rate their interest rate apart. devalue the fee our money is a poor girl ashley goldman but you can keep interest rates near 0 so that if you

are a white guy like on wall street your cost of borrowing is 0 if you're a black guy living in the ghetto your cost of borrowing is 2000 percent it's called interest rate apartheid and it's practiced right here in america and all over the world the ghetto of high interest rates if you don't mind borrowing money to 0 percentage straight you're living in the ghetto and that's the fact. seemed wrong when old rules just don't hold. any new world that is yet to shape out disdaining become educated and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

0 again from a heated exchanges on defense spending now has another internal conflict on its hands because members greece and turkey have raised the stakes over disputed seaboard some fellow members are also wading in as people of iraq expects. warships crossing the mediterranean with cannon volleys hurt though it's only drills the scenery is breathtaking. these exercises come at a time and location of tension within the alliance a deep splits between athens and over who has the rights to underwater oil and gas deposits the same a division in nato with greece on one side backed by france italy and cyprus and

turkey on the other side looking to the us to support leaving germany somewhere in the middle attempting to mediate the current situation in the eastern mediterranean is equivalent to playing with fire every little spark could lead to catastrophe the message from the new members of the alliance seems to be that this is not only a greek issue with the french president throwing his weight behind our plans. we've discussed the issue of the eastern mediterranean at length we have an obvious desire and solidarity with greece and cyprus but we also have the desire to ensure the region stability on all fronts the designed to respect international rights and to promote deescalation to 'd response to this has come in the form 'd of muscle flexing over just what belongs to whom but it is good turkey will take water as it's right in the mediterranean in the ija and in the black sea just as we have no

wise over anyone's territory sovereignty and interests we will never compromise with what belongs to us we are determined to do whatever is necessary in political economic and military terms. in washington the president seems quite happy with how uncross has set out its goal to meaning prisoner to one was very good they started out as another in a long line of disputes between ankara and athens but if the oil and gas question isn't put to bed it could well end up having it impacts upon nato as an effective alliance peter all of a. little alice you said adam to tell us that the conflicts between turkey and greece is symptomatic of an even wider power struggle i wouldn't say it's a conflict between europe and turkey i would say it's a division inside the european union because there are countries that support turkey there are countries that are balanced between greece and turkey bird sample

germany spain italy portugal these are all countries are either balance or on turkey side greece is mean backers prince france is one of the countries that is trying to lead the european union trying to take the power away from germany which has been the defacto leader of the european union over the last decade so inside the european union there's a power struggle and that power struggle inside the european union is being reflected in full display right now with what's going on in the eastern mediterranean turkey and greece are butting heads and trying to defend and protect their interests on one another. thousands of tourists have found self stranded abroad in the yet pandemic is flights are cancelled on mass but 2 japanese honeymoon is stuck on a small island in the atlantic do you say it's turned into one of the best moments of.

speech and in it he did pledge to make america safer and stronger but while his supporters hailed the event success opponents to say it ignored the reality of what is actually happening on the ground with riots in the neck anomic crisis affecting many parts of the u.s. . well i think the convention to this point has been spectacular especially when you put it up against the fiasco that was the democratic convention last week i think you know i feel for both the producers of both parties to have a virtual convention is tough to do you don't get the energy from the from the audience you don't get the pause lines you don't get the standing ovation so it's tough but i think the speakers this week have been spectacular from herschel walker on the very 1st night to the speakers last night the people that that know president trump and were able to speak directly to the american people about who he is as an individual i think that was very powerful you know if i've been on the moon for the last 2 years i just dropped in today geez i would i would never know

that we have 11000000 people unemployed we have about 180000 people who died of this virus with 1100 a day i would not know at all that she not only were unemployed but we have about 8000000 households that face a vixen or foreclosure in the next 60 days of i went to a church of scientology maybe don't ask me why i had you know i got there it was l. ron hubbard and there was apostles and you know i got to go to the moon there was an alternative reality at the same time the rodney king riots were going on in l.a. and that was perfect to me well the country is essentially facing these existential threats you hear nothing about they use the word coded 6 times in the last 2 days for all the speakers we heard nothing about 10000000 unemployed we heard nothing about these and we heard nothing about what he has done to enhance our suppress that this is bread and circus we're donald trump does best he's not

a president he's a game show reality show host and he's fabulous at it honestly i watched most of the democrat debate and i didn't hear one person talk about the riots in democrat cities the democrat states around the country i didn't hear the fact that these democrat mayors every one of them seattle portland chicago they've all endorsed joe . so if you want to talk about the devastation that's happening in america look at the democrats look at what they are doing to america by encouraging this and supporting these riots and not bringing down now working with the president to bring in national guard when the president actually wanted to help them and bring put down these riots they said no we'll take care of it ourselves and then the city councils in those democrat cities voted to defund the presidents and allow the rioters to continue to have a free wheeling. right to just go and destroy their towns that they live in that's not trump spot but interviewed donald trump many times i understand who he is what he's going to do is he's going to do some rigamarole that. everything that's gone

on in the last 6 months and then he'll just go into the you know tantrum that works that it would all be better if i could just have more of this all would be better if i have more of this it's all the gray if what we would just get rid of all these left wingers and let's forget about everything that's gone on in my career that's what he's good at. watching us he said that this ad with back again is usually at the top of the next one time to get the attention of stories on a web site take the title. of the republican national convention as donald trump improve his chances for reelection we'll get the perspective of this is to get.
