a very difficult pandemic across the channel france has broken its own record for cases in one day with over 10 and a half 1000 rights up in a single 24 hour period and the country's prime minister has been criticised in some courses for suggesting that everyone would just have to learn to live with the virus he's also now being sued by kobe survivors and relatives of the victims for the way the government handled the crisis which is striking since his arrival is that there is no strategy whatsoever in fighting the pandemic this country is being managed not governed. meanwhile in spain another european country devastated in the 1st wave lockdowns are on their way back in madrid the world health organization has said that different nations can have different approaches depending on their own unique circumstances but one thing must remain consistent and that's the quarantine period lasting 14 days knowing the immense individual and societal impact even a slight reduction in the link of current time can have and giving the figures i

have just mentioned the concept of cut and dying must be protected continuously adapted clarified and bill communicated we doat any ambiguity to the people a month ago the prospect of 2nd lockdown seemed only a remote possibility but today it's looking like a question of when and not if countries bring them back shattering already suffering businesses and inflicting more social and economic pain on people already worn down by restrictions on their lives easily r.t. london. by the russian opposition leaders called on the world to stand up for democracy svetlana taken over sky was addressing human rights session of the united nations which was debating the ongoing crisis in the country. this edition barrow's demands immediate international attention peaceful protesters have been illegally detained beaten and raped some of the protests have been found dead
3:07 am
there also needs fast as a result of the decisions. it's a very important truth of the nearness that tended are for democratic principles and human rights is not interfering in internal this it is a universal question of human dignity means because responded claiming the un session amounts to direct interference in the country's internal affairs it comes a day after the european parliament said it would no longer recognize alexander lukashenko as the legitimate president of belarus although that's not discourage his supporters from taking to the streets as has been done daily to counter the ongoing opposition protests in the capital while the demonstrations are relatively small during the week the weekend's continue to see mass opposition rallies to himself recently claim to kanada sky was the 2nd venezuelan go i don't know as he put it appointed by external forces. but the next faces began intense
3:08 am
political financial and diplomatic pressure from outside neighboring countries refusing to recognize the election results and just like we saw in venezuela they found a better russian glider and declared president. jonas to broadcast middle club believes the west is manipulating to konami sky for its own interests. because in this film before haven't we that in venezuela of course when they the west the us and western powers tried through that proxies to topple the government. and when that it looked to for a while that might succeed when it didn't they then turn to plan b. which was to anoint the so-called opposition leader the legitimate leader of that country he'd advocation we could actually call this process so that's what's happened this week i think it's part of the strategy to deal it atomize look at franco by saying that the opposition an opposition leader is the president course it's illegal but it's a new step they're hoping that will follow on from this is that more countries will
3:09 am
recognize her as the legitimate leader of belarus the arrogance of this is absolute story could you imagine if you look at franco said say 2017 when we had a very close election in britain though i don't recognise the reason may as the prime minister of britain are i recognise dr recording that the election eve really what it could you imagine the outcry to that this is what the west is doing in belarus. calls were mounting for germany to ditch the nordstrom to gas pipeline project in response to the case of a lex in the valley but claims it has evidence that the russian opposition figure was poisoned with another charge of nerve agent moscow those strongly denies it was involved i think it can investigate further with berlin's test results the heads of key german regions meantime have come to the defense of the energy project the pipeline is economically necessary force but it's also necessary that we stay together with the russian it's a project that plays a decisive role in the framework of our altered energy and climate policy and
3:10 am
therefore we've come to the conclusion that we want to carry on with it and to those that advocate closer ties with russia. i say that the poisoning of alexei now vying with an advanced chemical agent is not a one off. stream 2 is a pipeline project to pump russian gash to germany and then on to european countries via the boat baltic sea when completed it will be 1200 kilometers in length it's around 90 percent. it will double the amount of gas flowing from russia to germany construction began in 2018 but has been hold for the number of times the us and some eastern european countries lodging their objections washington slapped sanctions on the project last year claiming it risks european energy's security and example of that the german port term of assassinates as found itself threatened with crushing sanctions by american senators the locality has been playing
3:11 am
a key role in supporting the pipe laying fleet evolved in north stream to construction but the town's mayor and residents remain defiant in the face of us pressure gives equal. consoles to getting gas from russia and i don't find it very nice that they're trying to tell us what to do here the project misled for the town it is a big thing it created a lot of jobs for locals and the town became a little more significant thanks to it and i want to see very clearly that it's really seamless the way the united states is trying to manipulate german laws to european interests so that all interests come out on top of those. martin doul believes the severing of economic ties with russia would prove hugely to prove to mental to eastern germany. it is a big problem and i think. it also loved the line of the german government of the world and billy. the existence of people in east germany
3:12 am
because any reader tries are stronger or russian and these are frankly very productive and i think the central should listen listen more to that. i think is the wrong way and especially for the people in east germany of this region that will be more bitter effect than for west germany. that is today donald trump claims the recent violence seen in the streets of america is being driven by university courses looking at racial inequality as he put it think that these are indoctrinating students in hard left ideas critical race theory. the 1619 project and the crusade against american history as toxic propaganda the left wing writing in me by the direct result of decades of
3:13 am
leftwing indoctrination in our schools. the subjects mentioned by trump of rooted in socialist thinking there and examine societies through the lens of race and law and power proponents say it's about righting the wrongs of the past our guest debated whether that's really the case. we do want people to be judged by the content of their character but this idea of colorblind list is inherently racist i'm a black man and that is what people are going to see in this society 1st and foremost so i don't want to be judged just because i'm black and this whole idea of critical race theory the only thing that it does is it gives people of color an excuse to try to not try hard and when we have things like affirmative action and they talk about white privilege when there's 15000000 white people living in america right now below the poverty line that's almost double the 8000000 black people that are living below the poverty line so you go talk to the old white people about their
3:14 am
white privilege and cerys this country was stolen from indigenous people through brutal land theft and genocide from a lens of white supremacy and it was built off of the backs of stolen people from africa including forced rape and to come to tea of african women to create more property for a white man nothing that happened you know what anthony is referring to that happened hundreds of years ago is not applicable today we have a constitution that applies to a couple eyes to every man woman and child today regardless of sex race creed religion jack everybody is protected with the same rights under the constitution in fact people of color get special deference because of programs like affirmative action what listen you're going to pass and and i'm a hispanic american and i don't have these issues and i don't believe that i'm being that i need to fight for liberation and i'm a free man can you tell me which amendment gives black granite indigenous people special treatment in the constitution if you're going to reference this document back it up with facts otherwise there's been a lot of things even trump has done it trump putting but i'm not for hannity zones
3:15 am
so predominately black and hispanic neighborhoods get special tax breaks to the middle of the country doesn't get it you know we don't you don't know what's going on and you're misrepresenting history and you have to endure and you're living in the past you're literally living in the past anthony. i have no problem with people who are actually trained and skilled in racism to train people in being in races because we know there is no such thing as not races you're either races or you're in the races people who say that all lives matter are racist and try to pull one group above the other that's the definition the definition the opinion meat of what racism actually is this is all since national good morning thanks for watching out this weekend coming up the greek island of leds bosses creating a new tent city the thousands of migrants who displaced offer a suspected arson attack destroyed the last camp but there's still a lot of trouble a story among the others recovering after this break. democracy
3:16 am
is driven domestically and internationally and we're seen efforts by international can as ations and governments to promote democracy in countries like iraq afghanistan we see how difficult it is also with the it has to be reduced domestically because otherwise international actors need to be in the country $24.00 seventh's to make a sustainable so any country in the world that's built a sustainable democracy is built to domestic sometimes of its national health mystically. the world is driven by generous. person.
3:17 am
who dares thinks. we dare to ask. russia's demanding immediate answers from washington after an n.b.c. news report claimed america's providing weapons to ukrainian militants in crimea. unnamed use official speak about their country's support of terrorist activities in the counties in this case these talks specifically about russia if that is true we demand that the u.s. side clarify as to whether or not washington has directly or indirectly facilitated the is be you ukrainian security services in organizing terrorist attacks against the people of crimea because i don't know who can discuss the story with
3:18 am
a correspondent philippe trying to get. the n.b.c. report itself is actually about a completely different case about allegations that the russians secretly bribe or paid bounties to taliban fighters which killed u.s. troops in afghanistan moscow has firmly denied that anything like it is possible so the n.b.c. report cites a number of u.s. military officials and sources as well some of them are saying that there is no solid proof of that others are confident about the theory and this brings us to the part that really caught the attention of russian officials because down at the bottom of the read one of these sources is mentioning the u.s. military aid for ukrainian fighters in crimea nonetheless current and former u.s. officials have said many cia officers and analysts came to believe a bounty program existed they concluded that the russians viewed it as
3:19 am
a proportional response to the u.s. arming of ukrainian units fighting russian forces in crimea the source. of these allegations are still quite murky still try to piece piece of the puzzle together here but we do know the u.s. has been supporting ukrainian military quite openly over the wall tell you what ever since the conflict in southeast ukraine broke out ukraine has been heavily reliant on u.s. military aid and i'll tell you what the latest batch of that equipment that's part of the u.s. support which is worth $60000000.00 u.s. dollars and the one that included. javelin anti-tank missiles was sent in june but this was just the latest in a serious of shipments and these shipments were also preceded by non lethal military aid all of this intended for the ukrainian forces that are fighting pro russian forces in eastern ukraine the pro gear of forces in that donbass region
3:20 am
they comprise of proper ukrainian troops which is the army and also nationalist battalions but when it comes to climbing there is no military activity there the whole principle is under control of the russian army however infiltrators with the ukrainian passports had previously been caught there by russian security forces for planning terrorist attacks so in this case some u.s. support for ukraine to fight the russians in crimea that's a completely different story and that's a real cause for concern in moscow so what about these allegations that russia actually offered bounties to taliban fighters or killed american troops in afghanistan wild and going back to these claims about some kind of bribes by some kind of russian secret agents for taliban fighters they 1st surfaced in the new
3:21 am
york times back in june but even the n.b.c. article that i began with starts with the words of the head of the u.s. central command who says that he doesn't have any solid proof to back this up for now and if we talk about the russian officials again they were firmly confident that this couldn't be the case at all previously the russian foreign ministry surrogate said that russia would never stoop so low as to engage in such dirty tactics. we were accused of relations with the taliban. to carry out special operations against america. troops for financial rewards for the taliban fights for its own interests and leaders i think it's beneath the dignity to suspect that russia could be behind such things by the way the pentagon had to deny these allegations if there was nothing to back them up in the taliban were also said it was completely folds. greek authorities have begun housing thousands of migrants in
3:22 am
a new tent city on the island of less boss itself to the morea camp they've been in was destroyed in a suspected arson attack by residents themselves earlier this month. 70 police officers in protective suits were dispatched to the island many migrants have been living on the street since that fire and a number of been refusing to be re housed in the new tent camp right police try to round up in a school into the new facility the greek government believes the fire then is a sign that secure close to units are the only safe option they say. for the 1st and for its showing the need to immediately close then disciplined open
3:23 am
reception centers for refugees and migrants and to great closed controlled centers which will provide humane living conditions double fence secure entrances surveillance systems and fire safety. the morea migrant camp was the largest refugee center in europe whether it was severely overcrowded it was often the headlines on it witnessed a breakthrough analysts we spoke to believe the situation highlights the failures of europe's broader migration policies. i think this is a pit denies it is the total 'd failure of europe's management of massive migration how many years have with been speaking about problems leads to massive migration in europe over a 1000000 in my case which i could just show me a 2050 what are they doing today are they working are the integrated of the speaking german european union is not talking about that or not i'm not even talking about it in france spain other countries were immigration is just a massive problem it's there is no policy managed by the european union and this camp where migrants or jews are burning down their own facilities just shows how
3:24 am
bad treatment of this whole situation is by the european union what is this european union so we tell people from all over africa that they could come over and we can't even pay for facilities to replace this just doesn't make sense it's not the 1st time that somalia there until then was completely down to the ground and by than 16 of 80 they mean many many times where we had fire incidents and actually 7 people died during fire recently in mali at all or so died there from i speak because they were trying to he flew didn't say that sense so as long as you have the sake of the nation needs t.v. all the quoting to remind maybe that's good percenter was always going to have a credit so i the time of the day with 13000 people staying in their innocence or that most men fall 2800 we had as many as 20000 people in the center so obviously this is the main weekend nothing is being done by the authorities to prevent that
3:25 am
from happening they've been meaning to then south you know give us a chance tension say as a very violent place and who is understandable because of the living conditions because of the way people betty. you know in this case. in a sad state of affairs they will continue to follow the story that's is so far you don't converse so much more from a smaller one a breaking news throughout the weekend reporting from moscow kevin i was signing off for a bit of a great. post . on the. last
3:26 am

3:27 am
all my social class. people are also in poverty they 1st. if you're born into a poor family if you're born into a minority family if you're born into a family that only has a single parent that really constrains your life chances people die on average 15 years old if you born into generational poverty. it's a. fight every day you meet your needs and the needs of your family. to move or see is driven domestically and internationally seen efforts by international organizations and governments to promote democracy in countries like iraq afghanistan. that it is also going to be it has to be reduced to mystically
3:28 am
because always international actors need to be in the country $24.00 seventh's to make a sustainable so any country in the world that's to sustainable democracy has to mystic sometimes of international health mystically. max keiser this is the kaiser report you know the economy is a man made structure try to scott engineers financial engineers economic engineers . thinkers. philosophers and mayfield over time what happens when the foundation
3:29 am
of operates what happens when this structure collapses what happens when the simulation goes away let's find out from stacy herbert well max you know there was some art a few years ago when we used to be able to meet in person at that little art festival i think it was in miami we had some banana on the wall well you might say our balance sheet is looking like that banana meat republic budget deficit hits record 3 trillion dollars as us spends 100 percent more than it earns unfortunately due to helicopter money it is not unlikely that the exploding deficit will ever shrink again until the monetary system is overhauled so year to date and that we have only one month left in fiscal 2020 the u.s. has spent $6.00 trillion and collected just $3.00 trillion which means that its outlays are 100 percent more than its receipts many are asking why don't we do we
3:30 am
even collect this 3 charlie and taxes why don't we just like print money for everybody right it brings up a lot of questions you know one thing is that the deficit is huge and it's more than one percent of g.d.p. and that's true for countries around the world and some play 20300 percent g.d.p. but what's creeping up now is the interest on that deficit even at these low low interest rates near 0 percent interest rates the interest cost on the deficit is getting close to america's outlay for the military which is their biggest expense so usually what happens when in fact the interest on the debt gets to a point where that also equals your g.d.p. as a country you are technically in default and you are officially no longer a country what is left is a memory of a country you know where at that point in the game you know a monopoly if you play monopoly there's always a point a game where you realize well somebody has a strategic amount of property on the board and they're going to win and what the only thing left for us to do is to.
