world. powers to recognize the opposition leader and the rightful president it comes after a month of unrest and following president contested election victory. in the capital. it's still tense here and we haven't seen today the violence the crack sounds of previous days but. we saw internationally with. surprisingly declaring the winner of the election the contested election last month declaring rival. who had earlier fled the country
5:02 pm
the lithuanian parliament calls on the international community to support the demand from state line a 2nd of ska the leader elected by the belorussian people and from the coordination council established at her invitation as the only legitimate representatives of the belorussian people for holding new transparent and democratic presidential and parliamentary elections. we call on the international community to consider any domestic or foreign policy action by the illegitimate leaders barely release alexander lukashenko and mice in his power and conclude new agreements with russia which restrict the sovereignty of the belarusian people to be a crime against his people surprising not only because lithuania is the 1st country to recognize. rivals with lalage you can also as the legitimate president of better us but also because there have been very mixed messages coming out of the european union with regards to for example sanctions whether that be sanctions against
5:03 pm
president bush. and his followers with a 3rd b. that recognize him as the legitimate president of the us and you know what foreign policy approach they would now assume towards belarus we do not recognize him as the legitimate president nor do we recognize nicolas maduro from this point of view maduro and lucas shank are in exactly the same situation we do not recognize that they have been legitimately chosen however whether we like it or not they control the government and we have to continue dealing with them despite not recognizing that democratic legitimacy the other surprises of course as you can also has turnabout you've heard what she had said previously because immediately after the election after leaving the country even better as i'm heading for the european union she said that she didn't see a political future for herself that she she didn't see herself running for for another election a 2nd round perhaps but that has changed she's now making very official statements
5:04 pm
out in the people of. the people of russia the european union advising them of what course to take geo political and diplomatic course to take with regards the president with regard to bellaver so she certainly sees a political future for herself now and is apparently determined to stay the course here in bel. the situation nevertheless is still tense as i mentioned every day we have here spontaneous protest earlier today we saw a protest turn ugly with police and security services tightening up trying to trying to break up out break up and. an anti government protest the protests is in the church in the they talked and eventually both went their separate ways but they were upset that a pro-government protest that happened behind me nobody asked them to disperse that they went on their merry way so as i say passions are high there's
5:05 pm
a lot of bad blood between the different sides the different camps the. camp in the opposition camp and we expect big protests this weekend. geo political analyst right of office told me he believes lithuania would have made its declaration in support of taken off sky without the backing of larger powers. it's a signal that is being shown to look i think go and it shall show that force is major forces political forces behind lithuania because little you know wouldn't take such a measure which is illegitimate according to international law if there was no support by the european union or who knows. and i see this as. not too intelligent step by lithuania it's too blunt because it shows clearly that the situation in. belarus is not only divided one
5:06 pm
side is also in danger of being taken over by external interests therefore i see it in political terms and not in terms of elections in minsk. and then in moscow both demanding answers over the alleged poisoning of russian opposition figures alexina valmy germany says it's handed over all its data on the case to the global chemical weapons watchdog or the russia which is a member of the p.c. w says nothing's been received yet jacqueline who got more details earlier from correspondent quarter. just seems like this political dispute over the alleged poisoning of alec saying of all me is entering its next chapter germany's handing over the evidence it claims to have to the o.p.c. w in the kremlin has already said it's not happy about it. it looks like. but it's not. including the kinds of clinics. it's not the case
5:07 pm
because germany is having trouble sharing the information with us we have no idea what the 100 over to the w. . so this is basically the essence of what's been going on over the last couple weeks berlin saying they've established than of all he was poisoned and demanding that russia investigate while at the same time moscow is asking to see that that alleged evidence and which they actually need to open a criminal investigation if there needs to be one and that just being ignored that will give our viewers a little background how did this all begin well it started when the volley was flying from siberia to moscow in mid august 28th l. seriously ill now the russian doctors who treated him in the siberian city of they said they didn't find any toxins at his in his system but when he was airlifted to germany the doctors there said that they did in indeed find a chemical agent in his blood they say that it was not a chalk specifically a nerve agent that was developed in the u.s.s.r. and now that the o.p.c. w.
5:08 pm
is involved the whole situation really seems a lot more suspicious for moscow since the organization's words doesn't hold much weight with the kremlin if your p.c. w. is in deep crisis what with the. activities and the extreme politicization and this didn't take place just today is still a long time ago the practice of reaching consensus decisions has been completely forgotten and the organizations handling of the 2018 alleged chemical attack in duma syria was what soured its relationship with moscow on a number of inconsistency as were left on the. dressed and according to whistleblowers that came from the organization they said that anyone who dissented from within was silenced but nevertheless russia's representative to the o.p.c. w. has said that the kremlin will be willing to work with the organization on this case senior politicians in germany are calling on the government to pull out of the north stream to projects over the developing case the gas pipeline connecting
5:09 pm
russia to germany is due to be ready by the end of this year ahead of the german parliament economic affairs and energy committee believes that abandoning it now would be a disaster. correct not stream 2 is not putin's project it involves a large number of european companies and is designed to ensure the security if europe's gas supply to question this project now is to shoot ourselves in the foot it is certainly not in the interests of germany or europe if there is a decision to end the project companies will be able to sue those who made the decision in this case the german government and of course it will affect gas prices it must be clearly understood that this is not a game the pressure coming from the us is already enough in my view so we are strongly resisting the american sanctions that have been imposed on companies and individuals involved in the pipeline construction this is against international law and we don't accept it i can see that many people who might not have fully
5:10 pm
understood the story thinking now will show them but i think it's completely wrong 1st of all we need to establish what really happened because i don't think germany knows i think we should respond appropriately to the russians request for legal assistance we obviously received such a request but according to the russians it is so for going on says. around 13000 migrants have been left without shelter after the largest refugee camp in greece burned to the ground a fire swept through the mariah camp on the island of les boss on tuesday greek officials say it was started by residents the facility have space for around 2000 people but was holding more than 6 times that i was recently the focus of local anger on the refugee fail to observe a 2 week around of. the global migration and displacement lead at the red cross told me earlier that the e.u. needs to step into averting humanitarian crisis. it's been going on too long and this is why during proceed this morning the president who we've been calling on
5:11 pm
all of that all think all this and include you know. your member states into for a time. reason in funding this solution to what is in reality a problem that has been going on for far too long what we're asking is that people are allowed to move to the mainland and i know how to be accommodated in seclusion as much as possible and that particularly the most vulgar was such a high number of what i call when in my house i mean what we would like to see is their european statesmen this is from the e.u. they provide a more solid hour in here in support of the greek authorities and exploring opportunities for a relocation of the. president trump has pledged to reduce the number of u.s. troops stationed in iraq and afghanistan by roughly half and military officials say the soldiers will stop pulling out with a week's get a report. the election is just 2 months away donald trump is now trying to create
5:12 pm
an image of himself as being a peace loving leader a lot of progress is being made in afghanistan but will be down to 4000 soldiers in a very short period of time likewise iraq will be down to about 2000 soldiers at a very short period of time donald trump seems to be fulfilling one of the campaign promises of 2016 amid the lead up to the 2020 vote trump a spelling to take into account the real total cost of these military adventures from the united states according to one study 37000000 people have been displaced sense 2 $1001.00 as a result of the u.s. war on terror and that is a minimum estimate because the cost and most wars so many politicians in america almost all of them have been complicit we have simply put a weapons based economy and we forget about the moral and injustice that being
5:13 pm
caused to fit a 1000000 and a half people who are killed or the people who are displaced at 37000000 people or in fact that we've completely balkanized and destroyed africa the middle east but in the upcoming u.s. presidential election it's not really clear if these numbers will matter and will have an impact on the vote that determines whether or not donald trump stays in the white house a lot mom artsy new york. go without a step ahead to britain in brussels or on a collision course have her brakes a trade deal with the u.k. and mit would break the law it's on next story when we come back.
5:14 pm
join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to the world of politics. i'm showbusiness. the a lot of misinformation amongst the traitor this robin of traitors i thought they were getting free sharer somehow and it's really fascinating to see really learning curve amongst teenagers and 20 somethings about how stock markets work and you know experience is a great teacher and that means losing a lot of money but that's also a very good teacher. i refuse to be on the side of people who want to take really child i want to stay on the intellectual should always think it's there. no to violence no to yes to think. more like.
5:15 pm
i get more of a headline news the european union is threatening to take legal action against the u.k. if it goes ahead with a new bill that would override the brics a divorce treaty the british government issued immediate response saying it won't drop the legislation despite earlier admitting that it clashes with international law reporting next from westminster his shaadi i would. well it's almost as though the e.u. couldn't quite believe what was happening when it got wind of exactly what the u.k. is attempting to do so essentially the british government is trying to reinterpret the special arrangements made for northern ireland in the withdrawal agreement the e.u. would essentially say it's as if the u.k. is trying to rip up the withdrawal agreement that the u.k. and the e.u. spent so long trying to rectify and in turn the e.u. is saying to the u.k.
5:16 pm
you have a 20 day deadline to completely u. turn on this they argue it's an attempt to override the withdrawal agreement the withdrawal agreement contains number of mechanisms the legal remedies to jens violations of the legal obligations contained in which the european union will not be shy in using so for the e.u. it's almost its worst nightmare they say the u.k. has totally broken violated international law they've also broken trust and also risks the future relationship with the e.u. too because they say of course this is an extremely bad violation of the very withdrawal agreement as well now it's all about the u.k. deciding as i say to try and reinterpret this special arrangement made for northern ireland almost essentially saying that ministers in essence can export declarations of goods from britain to know of the nile and while that might seem like a nice option on paper even the united kingdom is admitting it is a violation. in a very specific. penalty disappoint your concept. choirboy
5:17 pm
school for the very short you do for him so who's going to say so well brandon lewis is accepting a slight misdemeanor here so well a brave woman the attorney general she said in response that that difficult and highly exceptional circumstances it's important to remember to remember the fundamental principles of parliamentary sovereignity we've also got a government response as well to the e.u. saying that parliament would not be acting unconstitutionally and acting in the bill and it is allowed to. discharge its treaty obligations in good faith they would argue that the internal market bill is in good faith they argue it's designed to try to unify the u.k.'s 4 nations and therefore that is the crux of why they're trying to get this bill forward next week all m.p.'s will be voting on it they say that it is really designed as i say to try and unite the country so there is the argument there that maybe potentially the u.k. is trying to apply
5:18 pm
a lot of pressure on to the european union so that they climbed down on their position as we know the talks are in a stalemate position so they're trying to maybe get some wiggle room to see if the you try and climb down on some of that demands having said that it's caused a huge huge uproar in many diplomatic circles and sending shock waves politically. the strategy and behavior of the british government was one of brinkmanship was one of threatening to crush oshie you know if you don't if we don't get to an agreement we might go come because i knew that sort of thing trust has been a rule that. tension has been created so to have been created and that's not conducive to solid because. we didn't want to deal at any cost we urge britain to work with us constructively in foreign compromises the interests of both sides any of them by britain to undermine the agreement would have serious consequences so this admission has led to an absolute torrent of criticism and weighing in as the
5:19 pm
former prime minister to reserve may of course has been a very huge figure in the negotiations she herself says that this bill would undermine the trust between the e.u. and the united kingdom and that's a position that. the european commission president has also reiterated she says it does undermine trust between britain and the bloc but burning bridges with the european union may not be that much of a surprise but this political stunt seems to have further consequences because now we're hearing from across the pond the united states is warning london that if indeed this bill violates the good friday agreement well there'll be no possibility of having a postbox at u.k. u.s. trade deal of course that's something that the u.k. is severely banking at this point in time but as far as trade talks go then between the u.k. and the e.u. over the last few weeks over the summer there's been very very little wiggle room if seen a complete stalemate position and of course this certain controversial political stunt from the u.k.
5:20 pm
will only add fuel to the fire. but if you think things bad now strategist to deutsche bank a warning that the era of global economic growth is coming to an end we're about to see some drastic changes to the way international politics is conducted. the world is on the cusp of a new era that will be characterized initially by disorder with the likely loosening of the globalization that created the rapid economic and asset price growth of the last 40 years. the researchers believe this year marks the start of a new structural super cycle which has been accelerated by the pandemic they're predicting that in this new period the united states and china will be locked in an economic conflict reminiscent of the cold war governments and companies will become overloaded with debt europe will face a make or break decade and the world could see either a new technological revolution or the bursting of a big tech bubble the problem is the stimulus from the great recession was largely
5:21 pm
monetary stimulus and lot of it went into financial asset markets not into into the real economy now this crisis we have is as collapsed the real economy 4 times deeper and worse than it was the 10 years ago so it's going to take a massive fiscal stimulus which i don't see happening anywhere i see a lot of a monetary stimulus still but that's not going to produce a really really strong recovery it's going to take years at least a decade perhaps to grow out of this if they don't really do a significant fiscal stimulus which i don't see. a 12 year old black boy in the u.s. state of colorado has received a police visit and been suspended from school for playing with a toy gun during an online class. displayed his name on green zombie hunter pistol for just a few seconds while sitting at home during a class being conducted via xoom his teacher reported him to the school principal
5:22 pm
and called the police without contacting the child's parents as i was suspended for 5 days and officers reportedly threaten to file criminal charges granted school has defended its actions citing safety rules. we followed old school board policies when we were in person learning or distance learning we take the safety of our students this stuff very seriously safety is always our number one priority the american civil liberties union called the school's actions wrong on so many levels and it's said that the criminalization of black youth in schools needs to stop many people on social media accuse the school of racism political activist anthony rogers wright says the reaction was not only are warranted it also put the boy's life at risk. every day we are in says the patient police shooting an unarmed black person whether it's in the back and an arms. resting on our child whatever it is this this child's life was literally put in danger the fact that the teacher
5:23 pm
called the police before the parents makes no sense whether it's our child when our child is sick we always call the parents before calling you know the ambulance unless it's a critical emergency but again in this case it was clearly. defined that the the gun was a toy gun i mean it had writing on it that indicated that this was not a weapon of mass destruction or a weapon that could kill anyone and in that case the teacher not only failed the parents not only failed the student but also the entire school system because other parents are going to be wondering if they have to be concerned especially black brown and indigenous parents if they have to be concerned about cops knocking on their door for the smallest of issues despite the allegations of racism there was a similar case involving a white student in colorado a few days earlier police were called to the home of 11 year old maddox blow after he was seen holding a b.b. gun during an online class he was also suspended for 4 days until he brought his
5:24 pm
right again believes police are often being brought into situations where their presence is doing more harm than good. if the child had a toy gun if the teacher tried to interact with the child and you know percival say a please do not show that that is not appropriate even if it is a toy gun and then call the parents again we don't want to call the police when we don't have to because when people show up with guns for small issues they tend to escalate the fortunately you know i think here in the united states we are so used to a car sorel and police state that we put police in positions that they shouldn't be and we we know that there are people who are better equipped and more capable of getting to the bottom of the situation without it escalating this is why so many in the united states have called for a divestment from the police and a reinvestment into community services that would be more appropriate for handling these types of issues. and that should use for now thanks for watching the 247
5:25 pm
5:26 pm
tough on china but is that kind of a on this edition of the program the attempt to separate this reality. problem drugs don't always come from unscrupulous dealers but from pharmacies too in every state in the united states who seem very sharp increase in the number of people seeking treatment for addiction to prescription opioids invaded america under the banner of medicine persisted with the pain but instead of trying to wean him off though she just goes after dose after dose after dose and really became his drug dealer so who's to blame patients doctors manufacturers all the government's.
5:27 pm
new gold rush is underway and gonna thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the gold fields hoping to strike it rich is a good. day oh by those that work children are torn between gold. was very poor i thought i was doing my best to get back to school which side will have the strongest appeal. going to use there's a work of. the more the sure the. sound of the guy. was almost as a name for. the most. so let's leave those of us. it boils down to
5:28 pm
useless forgot what their stuff just doesn't let them sleep he was up in the play that made it easy but nothing to me yeah of course free. hi i'm max keiser this is the kaiser report. much to. first as always i will start reminding you that you can find us on social media at mines dot com for its last stacy herbert's or max kaiser you can find out mines dot com forward slash max kaiser so we're moving our social media presence over there from twitter and i want to talk about chasing stock splits with marks and king
5:29 pm
so i see them in my headlines today so i figure i'll name check them and talk about them 1st up we have a tweet here that says robin hood schwab outages last week linked directly to tesla and apple split the money ellison generation's ear on their robin-hood apps and their schwab apps and they're chasing these stocks splits max well you know i predicted that would there would be a problem it's like the millennium bug if i'm ever back in year 2000 there was a lot of fear that the computer systems would be able to handle a double 0 of the year 2000 and that proved to be not the case but in this case there was a problem in terms of the stock splits there were these robin-hood after apple's already lost traded stock out there and so it split and so the the back ends of these systems couldn't handle it so. you know they sorted it out the was a lot of misinformation of amongst these new trader things robin the traders i
5:30 pm
thought they were getting free sharer somehow and it's really fascinating to see really learning curve amongst teenagers and 20 somethings about how stock markets work and you know experience is a great teacher and that usually means losing a lot of money but that's also a very good teacher true that's the only way i really. i learned i never learned sitting in front of a professor in a classroom i learned the most when i get racks it does bring up the notion of this fictitious capital and that you know this is kind of the future that marx would see is that everything is so life removed from industrial production or any sort of production or labor that we get to a point of fictitious capital and then in that sort of space there's like no limit really because it's just limited by our imagination right it's goes back to.
