it's midday moscow time in the headlines europe about to vote on a resolution on the alleged poisoning of alexina valmy peace call for sanctions against russia as moscow warns its partners not to politicize the case. u.s. troops die in a ring against an american presidential hopeful joe biden fails to recall the country he infamously helped to send the military into back in 2002. covering this is while a survey finds most young americans don't know how many people died in the holocaust while a significant share even. the jews were to blame for it because what

they told about this pretty dark chapter in history of the south. and us politicians are angry after a trivial and american firm provided the technology used to shut down the internet during the disputed presidential election in all get some. of the 17th of september good afternoon live from world news h.q. meter moscow one name is kevin when i'm here for the next half hour with the latest from us then starting with this the european parliament is voting thursday on a resolution urging sanctions on russia if it should fail to carry out an open investigation into the alleged assassination plot against the legs in the valmy the kremlin those urged the bloc not to politicize the case peter all of as the latest from berlin. what this resolution does is it calls on russia to cooperate with an

investigation into what happened to alexina valley to provide immediate and full disclosure of the nova chuck chemical weapons program to the o.p.c. w that's the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons based in the hague in the netherlands and calls for an end to acts of harassment against oppositions of the russian government the action from the e.u. it wants to see is further restrictive sanction measures against russia and russian officials also for the calling off the ending of the nord stream 2 gas pipeline project now on choose day the e.u. high representative for foreign affairs yossef barel that's basically the e.u. foreign minister was talking to any peace saying that that wasn't in the remit of the powers that the e.u. institutions had that would come down to the individual member states who are involved in the project to make that decision if they were to call it off or not but what we're hearing from the e.u.

commission president is that it's well action against russia needs to be taken and 2000 that advocates closer ties with russia i say that the poisoning of an exchange. with an advanced chemical agent is not a one off. we have seen the pattern in georgia and in ukraine in syria and south ferry and then election meddling around of art and this pattern is not changing and no pipeline will change that what moscow is still demanding the evidence berlin says backs up its claims that alexei navalny was poisoned the meeting peskov the kremlin spokes person has also said that when it comes to north stream to the gas pipeline project that would take russian gas from russia under the baltic sea directly into germany that this was a commercial project and that it should be separate from any political or

diplomatic disputes. we strongly disagree with such a statement it seems a deliberate misunderstanding or an unconscious misunderstanding of what really happened to the patient in berlin which is necessary to stop mentioning north stream to in a political context which is a commercial project that is absolutely in line with the interests of russia and the countries of the european union to kill really germany or those a similar message coming from russia's permanent representative to the e.u. who said that the whole existence of the north stream to gas pipeline project was based on commercial need in countries like germany and that commercial need still exists therefore as far as he's concerned the project should end up going ahead as planned alexina follies competition the man at the center of all of this alexei in the vile name his condition is said to be improving he remains here in berlin receiving treatment at the shot at a hospital. political commentator gammas says some in the e.u.

indeed are intent on putting an end to the pipeline project. in the backyard lobbyists from the us and poland who are vital interests in. the land because. the polish want to blame the european union and especially the germans so that their games. although europe the us and the 2nd is the polish one they're all. from poland do downmarket and the last group to stop so in the best for our there are many many law yes working the more or less corrupt politicians to start this clone for germany it would be a nightmare it would be embarrassing nothing else everybody has to go down was russia because there is the market of the future the americans are really trying the french already try it europe and all the others will go one.

joe biden sending out mixed messages on the campaign trail as to whether next a democratic presidential candidate was speaking in florida than about his health care plans for veterans didn't go totally to plan and fortunately got one of the countries they served in wrong saying iran instead of iraq it's indeed not the 1st gaffe of the kind either. u.s. troops die in a rare and in afghanistan. parliament iran's parliament voted to reject all americans and coalition forces in the country we tried it in iraq is not working for an hour to try i mean in iran and scuse me we tried in ukraine coming to you know someone who has been injured or lost in iraq where. let me tell you something . we. it is that conflict in iraq that joe biden has been

widely criticized for playing a role in authorizing back in 2002 at the time he chaired the u.s. congress foreign relations committee and chose all 18 pro-war witnesses in the main congress hearings on iraq later turned out of course the iraqi leader saddam hussein does neither weapons of mass destruction or ties to al qaida by a conservative estimate more than 4500 u.s. soldiers and the same number of contracts has lost their lives in the invasion former u.s. marine corps intelligence officer scott ritter told the program that he briefed joe biden on the absence of iraqi weapons of mass destruction but at the time was ridiculed. what is a big deal is joe biden's vote for the iraq war and i take it personally because i briefed joe biden in person he insulted me when i testified for the united states senate in those september of 1980 about iraqi weapons of mass destruction he'd be a little be a scouting boy he said people above my pay grade were making this decision that

cetera and then he met with me in apologized and said he you know you know a lot we should talk about this in 2002 in the lead up to the vote on the war he as you mentioned he hosted a hearing and i did my darndest to become a witness for that hearing he ignored me. and it was very rude the way he did so and as you said he brought in more witnesses he stacked the deck it was a kangaroo court because joe biden wanted to go to war he always wanted to go to war any voted for that war that's what american veterans are going to hold him to account for the military is not a litmus test for american patriotism. but you can't run around and pretend that you are mr raw raw go go military when you are you know there's not a single non political combat veteran who's going to give joe biden a pass on this one joe biden has 0 credibility when it comes to talking about of

the military talking about war above all talking about sacrifice he literally has no credibility it doesn't resonate. u.s. politicians angry after it was revealed that an american company provided the technology used to shut down the internet during the disputed presidential election in belarus the firm since terminated its contract with the better russian government citing human rights violations double court has got the story. an american tech company called san divine just joined the west's fingerpointing against the belorussian government according to an article from bloomberg it's decided to end its dealings with minsk over alleged human rights abuses this is a human rights violation and it has triggered the automatic terminations of our and use the license agreement said mine takes human rights abuses very seriously they also oppose the use of technology to suppress the free flow of information resulting in human rights violations during last month's presidential election

belarus's internet went down nationwide of course western politicians and the media were quick to blame minsk for the blackout. the powers that be in minsk deprive the public of their right to seek and receive information again breaking their obligations under international law as well as contravening their commitments this can have a direct impact on the wellbeing of the citizens who are unable to learn the true state of what is taking place in the country on the other hand minced says a cyber attack caused the shutdown but what does sand vine have to do with all this while despite conflicting reports of what exactly caused the shutdown there is no doubt the company was doing business with the belorussian government it specializes in internet censoring technology typically used to fight internet crimes but bloomberg revelation claims minsk used that same tech to block its internet traffic now the company's crying human rights abuses even though not too long ago a leaked conversation suggested its management didn't care much for playing

politics we don't want to play world police we believe that each sovereign country should be allowed to set their own policy and what is allowed and what is not allowed in that country still the possibility that men skews american tech to advance its political agenda was enough to make us politicians cry foul over the involvement of one of their own firms it would be deeply troubling if american technology is being used by the us dictator of europe to blow by the russians from using the internet as justice thousands peacefully protest a stolen election in brutal political risk. reports that technology from a us company is being used by the lucas shango regime to censor and restrict citizens access to the internet in belarus is troubling let's not forget the us has been slapping sanctions on bellerose since 2006 meaning in many cases american companies aren't really supposed to be selling to the belorussian government but that wasn't enough to stop san vine from trying to make a bit of money or

a number of other companies for that matter so why are these firms concerned about human rights all of the sudden. good question someone who is concerned too about human rights in belarus is the exiled opposition leaders for atlanta to canal scar of course in a new op ed in the washington post she urges his supporters to cave on demonstrating in striking and also she wants the international community to to power the pressure on president elect zana lukashenko intel is ousted. we as a nation have passed the point of no return look at china has no future as leader of this country and it is only a question of time until he leaves power rask other governments to stop collaborating with the regime and impose sanctions on individuals who force the results of the election and committed crimes against their own citizens further lot of techno scott also insists she is the real president of the roost challenging the results of august selection she says to analysis by several independent groups

shows that the vote was rigged to put look at shanker in front we spoke to her gori you'll flay a global affairs expert he says he was left unimpressed by taken all scholars recent play. misses chicano studies rather the symbol soon protest i don't think that she's a fully fledged leader or that she's perceived in that get past you know of course we do not know the exact results respect outcomes of the presidential elections you just wait astable that she won those elections but it seems to me that. 'd group of politically active people and particularly student cutes are in favor of not so much is just a kind of scare in the air just against the present day leadership.

i think that it is it feels. they are sort of a silly morning you know of that conditional i wouldn't be too close attention to them as well as to. the cause but he missed just to kind of scare a lot of his main thing is diplomatic relations with all major western powers. and obviously. we created in minutes we have 2. relationships. everywhere you work for. rugby. we will all go in it's a matter of time we are all mortal so this phrase will go in it's a matter of doesn't care much since we're witnessing the situation we're.

in it seems like. there has been really reached a point maybe subsiding of course the. nearest future will show already this assessment is correct but to be. able of call me also this with the. days world news in brief in spain 1st and where police unions are rallying against what they say is madrid's in action over officers taking their own lives the protests there also condemned the spanish prime minister for so recently offer his condolences to the family of a terrorist who recently committed suicide in prison. in the states in oregon 800000 acres of land have been destroyed by wildfires mass evacuations there of seen tens of thousands of people flee the smoke and ash 8 people have reportedly died dozens more are missing wildfires have ravaged several western u.s.

states this year causing record damage for asylum seekers in morea have set up tents no near supermarkets best they can throughout the island of less bosses greek authorities struggled to try to relocate them into a temporary camp the previous one was burned to the ground in a suspected arson attack police arrested for afghan migrants on suspicion may be of involvement in that incident the road goes on. coming. it's international today thanks for choosing us by the way bigger and support the holocaust among young americans a spot big concern after a survey found most didn't know how many jewish lives play.

everybody's gaslighting everybody cooperations are gaslighting you central banks or gas mining you can understand the gas lighting is you know that it's not pleasant it's really it's downright rude. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation community. are you going the right way or are you being led. by. what is true. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the death. or inmate in the shallows.

i get a new survey has found that a significant number of young americans don't know very much about the holocaust during the 2nd world war the research was conducted in 50 states then it found that among 18 to 39 year olds most don't know how many jews were murdered by the nazis almost a half of respondents could not name a single concentration camp but most troubling of all 11 percent blamed the jews themselves for the holocaust over the majority of those surveyed went on to agree that it was important to learn about the holocaust to ensure it never happened again and that the holocaust education should be compulsory in schools we asked young people of new york what they'd learned to produce it in their history lessons . skype i mean if you start couple 1000000000. people died and i thought it was

3000000 i believe it was the kind that i need more 6000000 people in. the exact hour but it's a. good deal but i can't remember anything. it was like a. pretty big game day right it's weird like now it's kind of like there's a conspiracy theorists that think it didn't happen according the people behind the survey the nazis and the collaborators set up over 40000 concentration camps and ghettos during the 2nd world war in auschwitz alone almost a 1000000 jews were murdered 2 thirds of europe's jews were killed in the holocaust holocaust experts told us the u.s. education system therefore is failing students. the reality is the american americans generally american youth or young people in particular are ignorant about history and they get too much of their information from social media and that social media is full of holocaust deniers claiming it never happened saying the

jews caused it and that's the general problem that exists with social media but generally it starts in the fact they just do not know history they take perfunctory history classes in high school you know the average history teacher is called not called him mr history or history person or sir he's called coach because most history teachers in the united states have to coach a team and that's their primary responsibility is to coach basketball soccer or whatever may be and secondary they teach history and that's the reality of a history of the united states it's a national problem because it's impossible for people in my opinion to make political choices if they are understand history and what came before that and what one of the causes of events but again it's not only the holocaust it's of course the american revolution the cold war i'm making a bet that if you asked people what the battle of stalingrad was in the united states these came kids about you know more than 5 percent would be able to answer

that question in any sort of relative. sensible way. another day another word about covert testing the shortage of it in the u.k. has led teachers now to question the safety of reopening schools people and staff are among those struggling to get checked correspondent lisa rally reports. it wasn't so long ago that senior british politicians were promising that it was safe for children to finally go back to school i think the crucial thing is that pupils get back to school it's much much better for their for their health and mental wellbeing their. prospects we've made it clear this is compulsory parents do need to be sending their children back to school all scientific advice is that schools on. it's well only a few weeks into the new terminal already those claims are coming unstuck one teaching union is warning that education secretary gavin williamson may face legal action because they say schools were opened without proper safeguards being put in

place teachers a sounding the alarm but a chronic lack of testing facilities means that i do occasionally england make lying to a halt the staff and pupils are forced to stay home school managements have been doing everything they chant but the government has failed to do their side of things testing is impossible to get home go social distancing isn't possible in full class sizes i mean infection rates are going up so we have an absolutely chaotic situation where understandably and correctly pupils and staff are being sent home when they have potential sitting timbs but nobody knows if it's just a cold or coverage and it's a completely lost story and of course the danger is that there will be some situations where in fact we did have an infectious child in the sco but nobody knows because we can't get a test to check one way or the other facing the lack of testing more than 200 school and college leaders said staff and pupils couldn't book tests locally and

were being directed to test centers long distances away and with the government mandating no more than 6 people to meet at a time that encouraging students to get back into the classroom your thirties the knowledge that the whole situation is in quite some chaos every school has a small supply of home test kits for those teachers that. are testing center teacher who tested positive have to wait a week for her results i don't deny that it is an enormous challenge with children and teachers unable to get access to tests and essentially being told to get to the back of the queue if they want one union need to say that the government has failed to prepare despite having had months to do so and fit the country could go back into defacto lockdown once more children are being. sent home who cannot get tests and parents are being forced to take 2 weeks off to look after them we will end up with an effective lockdown there is an escalating sense that there were end up with a return to lockdown by default it's not just with regard to the testing that

schools are finding themselves short they also appear to lack the basic hygiene the city's nearly a 3rd of teachers didn't know if they'd have adequate supplies of soap and water while just 18 percent had had from the tides in every classroom it's left parents to question how they supposed to feel that their children will be safe in school when teachers themselves don't seem all that convinced misuse to keep schools open and clear of where they have to be so violent and what will be 5 years since we've been back is that you know. and it's as we know it's tracy versus thing you say it's really not remind you that they have a duty we need they need. and obviously we've all incentives which that's why. the police prefect of paris is accused of breaking the law for allegedly ordering the preventative arrests of suspected yellow vest activists as according to

recently released documents the detailing instructions for checking people arriving in the french capital offices were apparently told to arrest individuals who much to thug profile and further to confiscate any objects that could potentially be used as weapons they're also ordered to carry out identity checks and vehicle searches the orders were apparently 1st issued back in 2019 by the previous prefer it but have since been renewed and frenched lord though preventative detention professionally here is illegal he even rights groups are outraged by the revelations. this is very serious we have documented the fact that thousands of people have been arrested and sometimes prosecuted without having committed any violent act which obstruct their right to peaceful protest revelation comes as yellow vest protests in france return after the covert lot the movement initially began in late 2018 in protest over fuel price hikes and high living costs many of

the rallies have resulted in violence we brought you the pictures so often here thousands of demonstrators and police officers have been injured along the way and over a dozen people of lost their lives we spoke to one french lawyer who says that preventive the arrest lead to innocent people being detained. with scientists is the start of the yellow vests movement protestors have been facing the problem of preventive arrests and body searches what does it mean in general how do you put out a file all over the flames therefore you preventively take away some people from the demonstration either before the start of the demonstration or at the moment crowds start to form people are being chosen randomly and anyone can be detained without reason by the way some have been detained for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time and later 10 ad they had nothing to do with the movement at all france is a rest and pretrial detention system has been tenants had law enforcement offices busy that principle that a person will do something even without any wrongdoing if you're sitting on

a bench a few meters from where a demonstration is a bad start it is supposed to illegally join the rally and then turn violent main story the day europe's going to vote on the alleged poison of election of ali i mean pays we'll be voting on that within the next couple of hours we will bring you the latest check it out as well about see.

both. because both of. last time we chased. each one of them carrying 20 kilos 'd of drugs. first offense to. the other that they just deployed. is the main thing they the boy they have this is the this is for me. it's me. i don't know maybe they'll get a make or. break. for. ground war. seems wrong when old people just don't hold. any new world peace yet to

shape out these days to come out ahead and in games from an equal betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. max kaiser this is the kaiser report yeah everybody's gaslighting everybody corporations are gaslighting here central banks are gaslighting you if you understand what gaslighting is you know that it's not pleasant it's rude it's downright rude. yeah you know how everybody gets triggered at the slightest slight at the slightest bad word on twitter people get triggered and you must be

platform to kick it out of your job like this this notion of hiding bad things like the the business cycle goes up and then it goes down we don't like down anymore so we've tried to banish it and make it disappear the same thing with much of our all the chemicals and efficiency you know all the corn we produced based on efficiency and by removing all the protein from it there's all these costs that add up in the end but we just pretend not to look at it we just look at the positive side right don't be such a negative downer look at all the corn we have because of our efficiency gains we're so efficient where the best producers the scene with our plastics we produce all these plastics because we have a giant you know oil and gas industry globally and well you know what they're making a lot of profit from making plastics we're going to get to the plastics that but i 1st i want to talk about our.
