i will break. up. in the headlines this saturday germany says it's accepted moscow's request to cooperate on a probe into the alleged poisoning of opposition figure head in the lonely as the issue fires of german lawmakers at a debate in parliament why does novell need such a level of protection from most. parts of the preaching system why would the russian government be so stupid and even let no one to germany instead of hiding him in russia. kill best activists restart their rallies across france to find

a ban on large gatherings scores of arrests have been made. and ukraine asked apple to remove all russian media content from the app store in the country although there is some doubt as to whether the tech giant well comply with the will quest. a very warm welcome to the program from all of us here at r t h q and moscow let's get started with your live news update. germany says it's accepted moscow's request to cooperate on a probe into the alleged poisoning of onyx in a volley state prosecutors warn that some information will only be shared with not on these consent berlin says it still expects moscow to be held accountable for the incident and the issue has prompted a fierce debate in german parliament our dispute over has more. it was a fiery session on friday afternoon until evening here in berlin in the german bund

the stock the majority of those who spoke with pointing a finger of blame directly at russia and the russian government for what they say was the poisoning of alexei folly there were some voices that question the official government line not many i have to say but there were some. if the kremlin really regrets the assassination attempt on the aleksey in the valley and really wants to clear things up why does novell need such a level of protection from our security services political murder is part of the putin system. so not only are the russians supposed to have tried to poison an opponent of the regime with a military nerve agent but the put it in his tea why would the russian government be so stupid them and even let an avanti fly out to germany instead of hiding him in russia it's absurd that north stream too was a big issue on the during the debate as well basically the german politicians

splitting into 3 camps there are those that say it needs to be halted immediately and perhaps canceled altogether there are those that want to wait and see how russia reacts and how this story develops but there are those who are saying that it's simply too important economically and it must remain purely an economic project no matter what else is going on we have though you see the heated debate over north stream both on the streets here in germany friday night in the north stream has never been a purely private sector project as the german government has repeatedly argued it is by the war in syria just by the use of a chemical weapon in souls barry the federal government is sending a message to the kremlin no matter what you do economic goals are more important to us than climate protection security policy and human rights. demanding the immediate term a nation of north stream 2 is in my view

a hasty and misguided reaction but it pleases those who have always opposed the project especially the greens well as germany continues to push russia for an explanation for what happened to alexei novelli the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov has said russia still waiting for information it requested from germany but it's sort of your minute of the german representative to the u.n. said the data is no longer not for bilateral relations between germany and russia but amounts for multilateral proceedings what kind of proceedings the germans are talking about they were unable to say. in the interests of our german colleagues we urge them to provide mr serry information which might in any way should lights one absolutely unfounded accusations investigators in russia of also being on the search for more information police in the city of thompson which is where all x. in the valley had been he was flying from tomsk to moscow before his plane had to

make an emergency landing in the city of school with the lexan of only in extreme distress well placed in tom skipping putting together a timeline of where he was in the lead up to him getting on that plane they've placements in the valley in a hotel in a restaurant in a flat and in a coffee shop what they have also been going about doing is trying to interview those that were in close contact with aleck's in the valley during his time in the city of tomsk police there say they've been able to interview 5 of the 6 people that spent a lot of time with mist in the valley they say the 6th person a woman is believed to have come here to germany might be after. successful marina one of those who was with me in permanently resides in the united kingdom on august 20 refused to give explanations according to the investigation on aug 22nd of this year she flew to germany so it was not possible to get an explanation from her her location is currently being established there are still lots of facts to come to

light in the case of what happened to alexa in the funny books as we search for those facts the diplomatic route between germany and russia continues to heat up. not only emerge from a medically induced coma this week with german doctor saying he now reacts to speech although the long term effects of his condition are still unclear he was airlifted to berlin for treatment last month after falling ill on a flight from siberia to moscow the russian hospital that initially treated him said they found no evidence pointing. well of us activists are back on the streets of french cities after a 6 month pause there renewing their protest against income equality and unpopular tax reforms and the fine restrictions on large gatherings due to a spike in coronavirus cases most of the action is happening in paris you can see live pictures coming from there right behind me where over 200 arrests have already

been made devinsky is at one of those demonstrations for us. some of the protests that have been planned to take place here in paris. were banned by the paris pictures they said they didn't want them taking place but as you can see i'm not one of the protests this is one of a number the house being allowed to go ahead a fairly well attended state is probably about 80021500 people and for the moment at this protest there has been. now about one of the other protests that was approved in paris that have been tensions there already with gas deployed and of course paris we are hearing more than a $150.00 arrests some people these bags were searched were found to contain things like screwdrivers and drool clinches things that could be used to smash and grab their way through the city no civil disobedience. by one of the defacto leaders of the yellow vests. he's most famous for the fact that he lost his instant in one

yellow vest protest back in 2019 he's one of the leaders who called for the l a vest still lies once more it's been many months since we've seen big demonstrations like this but almost 2 years since the movement started it has now seemed to be back with a bit of a bomb. speaking earlier at one of the other protests in paris saying this movement was about now. i'm here to talk about the yellow vests about people who are suffering all these people here who are angry and tired of talking about all the brutality this rallies full of people who have something to say full of small business owners full of workers from. one he took to the brutality they're nuts because that's what the l a vest become pretty much synonymous with and not support tallahassee and that we've seen not just from protest is booked from police just think back to those 1st

few months of the movement back in 2008. in 2019 we saw streets like the show's dillies aid being destroyed and nudity by the protesters and huge clashes between the police and the protesters with criticism on both sides about the force that was used let's take a look back now remember just how i hoped it got. one of the big problems was to do with the injuries suffered as a result of those protests by both the protesters and by the police some people like jerome or drink is losing their eyes others losing limbs just that hands for i

even beat them really gruesome problems one of the big causes of those injuries were the l.b. d's they said the guns shoot out rubber bullets they've sort of pulled back a bit but we heard from the new interior minister how dumb and what will be used instead. the amount of violence and injuries the rallies whether by police or citizens the doctrinal conditions of use of equipment will evolve in particular with flash cool new pictures which from 2 more will be supervised to better assess the overall situation and does ignite the objective but we also know that the things we use the sampling hand grenades the g.m. teased as they called these are something that will shoot out a rubber bullet but it will be 18 smaller rubber bullets but they will be able to go out at a speed of around 126 kilometers per hour and reach around 30 meters so still

quite a capacity to be able to cool's some damage and i just want to get you a sense i mean just look. around here you can see how tight the police presence is everywhere that we've been moving. ukraine has asked apple to ban all apps of russian broadcasters and news agencies the tech giant has informed moscow based networks about the requests but so far the apps are still up and running parties are among reports. while a russian media has been censored in ukraine for years already and now we are getting this so-called involvement of apple as well as take it step by step on now friday several media from su russian major state networks claimed that apple decided to take off their apps in ukraine and that was on requests from the ukraine's security service now russian union of journalists as well as other colleagues are already calling this an act of censorship meanwhile our poll

themselves while they've made a statement a little bit later claiming that no apps have been deleted at this point and all they've done was just send notifications about this fact to the russian media and they suggested that russian media contact ukraine's security service there regularly now the list of networks has apps or to be deleted is quite extensive and they claim that this is in line with the politics against russian media let's have a listen. ukrainian security service demanded the removal of n.t.v. ups from the ukrainian apple store example say nothing on proposed we solve this problem with ukraine by all selves or this is part of the fight against russian media and social networks in ukraine it began on the pershing and continues on the zelinsky now russian parliamentarians as well as the country's journalists union

have already said that if the apps do get deleted they will explore legal action now censorship against russian media in ukraine began back in 24 scene after a referendum was held in crimea air where people have voted for a union with russia now several russian media and social networks have been as well have been deleted in ukraine since then and of course r.t. is also banned there. we discussed the matter with journalists and analysts are. of course censorship and of course it goes contrary to a freedom of speech the ukraine as doing its best to create a special relationship with the united states and the u.s. 'd is responding and for whatever draws those 2 countries closer together has washington's approval so therefore one of the ukraine makes a request like this of apple apple really can't say no because it knows that the

that washington wants it to could right it sets a very worrying president doesn't if you think about this thing if apple does yield this and it looks like it is going to then you could get any other security agency say in germany or belgium or anywhere else saying look we want you to take down of this country and it's very paul very core of apple and they still lose credibility as if they are going to you simply to request the one country security services against another country so you know apple will lose out on this the same way facebook is going to lose out twitter is going to lose credibility over its branding policy of russian affiliated media these companies go make the call are they going to stand up to what they originally claimed to be about free speech and free information or are they going to buckle under political pressure as part of geopolitics it was from asia was. the u.k. is tightening its coronavirus restrictions once again and in one

a ban on gatherings of more than 6 people will take effect on monday similar measures are also being introduced in scotland it comes amid an alarming rise in corona virus transmissions the world health organization special envoy on the crown of ours told us the situation was unavoidable. it will be by going to see what you. like. going to do every time to strike which we will. all right usually around the rest of them. with the one with 'd the virus anatomy jewelry he writes filling up. the number of positive cases per $1000.00 cova tests in the u.k. has doubled since the end of july on friday the number of new daily confirmed cases rose to more than $3500.00 an increase of more than $600.00 on the previous day the

total number of confirmed cases in britain is now more than 360000 the world health organization special envoy again told us what options are available to contain the spread the only way to really stop precision strikes by notion why you lost. it all down. by little. data general social economic and educational. training the strong independent authors but when they prevented me being racially juco as to why and how dangerous the situation so i was shoot managed to get all we got ice and maintain our defenses. still had a previously little known feminist book in france receives a surprise publicity boost after the senior official called for it to be banned i'll tell you why in the 2nd half of the program.

join me every thursday on the alex simon chill and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. we've been talking about tesla for you know number of weeks a few months because it is a phenomenon and the point i've been making from day one is that it's a me me me that has a market valuation at one point over $400000000000.00 and it taps into people who trade means and these are generations and the millennial zong the robert of apps and other forms and means have no fundamental value there's nothing there

it's just it's a murmur ation like starlings in the sky they conjure day and then they disperse. welcome back police have used tear gas against asylum seekers protesting on the greek island of lesbos. crowd of migrants gathered to voice their anger over the rebuilding of the morea camp europe's biggest refugee camp burned down 4 days ago and the thousands of former residents want to be relocated officials are saying they will have to remain on the island and greek authorities say the facility it was the time that a light by the migrants after

a crowd of us locked down was opposed. to. a previously little known feminist book with an initial small print run has received a surprise publicity boost in france a very senior official called for it to be banned and advisor to the gender equality ministry said the title i hate men went too far this book is obviously an ode to misandry which is clear from the summary in the title i would like to remind you that incitement to hatred on the basis of gender is a criminal offense this man works for the secretary of state for gender equality whose mission is to do something about sexual assault and rape it seems outrageous that she was more concerned about censoring a small feminist book than doing his job. the book's publisher called claims of inciting hatred ridiculous the author a 25 year old activist from neil says her work encourages female readers to take less account of the often unsupported opinions of men and to rediscover the

strength of female relationships the national print run of i hate men was just $500.00 copies but after all the publicity well then 2000 books were sold and it's now out of stock we asked people in paris what they thought of the title. we discuss the behavior at appearance of women every day and nobody even pays any attention so for once there is something directed at men and i guess we can deal with it. i think we should not stop at the touch of the book we have to go beyond that and read it and find out why she was behind it. women i hate them i could easily write a book like that because i have plenty of bad experiences in my love life have been left many times or had problems with my mother we really have to distinguish between what is literary what is an expression of a personal opinion. party founder catherine blakelock an actress and author melodie banquette share their opinions on the book with us and as it turned out they didn't

see eye to eye. premisses book the provocation to pare me to a new way of thinking to deconstruct the tree arche it's more about. the idea of men and about some behaviors in the for the construction so short a story called folly to call with the provocation we can think differently and go for a zillions of reflection and so 'd ins of freedom and on human rights and the feminism and all that the idea that you should hate men most people should hate men i don't think it's about the patriarchy and also said this rule loading of men is both natural and logical i mean this is a unbelievably extreme minority position the majority of women love men like men and their joy to men like women i mean it is quite ironic when women have basically freedom in all sorts of spears in this country and entranced

compared to say a country like afghanistan or pakistan in those cultures women really are oppressed in the western countries you have radical feminists saying that they hate men and that everything is so terrible when in fact they've probably got it the best that they've ever had it and a lot of and you know men and women are just different and people have to accept that it's a very minority number of people who have this view about hating the opposite sex. protests against police brutality across colombia have spilled into the 3rd consecutive night their eyes have already left at least 13 dead with hundreds wounded. i.

think i would like i was. right you see our. the colombian government has officially apologized for the police brutality that triggered the unrest in particular the case of 46 year old javier or don yes this disturbing video is the one that fueled the unrest that shows are doing is being pinned to the ground and tasered multiple times after being arrested police say he violated social distancing rules after the incident his family claim he was further assaulted at a police station and he died later at the hospital journalist and author chris hedges says deploying harsh tactics against the distance is nothing new for the colombian authorities. tactics of the government to dissent even before the street protests has been quite track only unions for instance are routinely smeared whose guerrilla fronts so we still have large numbers of extrajudicial

assassinations mostly of dissidents since 2018 when the current government came to power you have peasants being displaced from their lands and i think one of the problems is that the narco traffickers out a few jews themselves into the military and the intelligence organizations which perpetuate these kind of this paramilitary apparatus it's all kind of the perfect storm and what we're seeing is essential a ratcheting up of those tactics as unrest explodes within colombia but those tactics predate even the covert pentagon. where those former president lula da silva has spoken exclusively to our team is going underground he spent 18 months behind bars on corruption and money laundering charges as well discussing the accusations which he called politically motivated well a spoke about the julian assange case and the need for reform at the u.n.
