international lines you know. it's advise ing its citizens living or traveling to muslim countries to exercise caution to protests erupted over the french government's defense of the right to show publicly caricature is of the prophet muhammad charlotte picks up the story for us. it is recommended to exercise the greatest vigilance especially while traveling and in places that are frequented by tourists or expatriate communities this warning has been issued for those traveling and living in some muslim majority countries and it comes as there are rising tensions between france and those countries over comments made by president in the wake of that terror attack the beheading of teacher patty president said he would defend the right to show controversial cartoons of the muslim prophet mohammed now there is this huge anti sentiment that is is sparked up in the wake of
2:02 pm
that with protests now in many majority muslim countries with some of burning effigies of president back on and of course from boycott on french products of her hat was having an ad and half and half and half of her half of. it was that that ambassador ambassador ambassador was present back or has refused to step down over this comment which would perhaps defuse this situation and he has been accused of with playing up anti muslim sentiment and that's because in the wake of that terror attack there has been
2:03 pm
a crackdown on muslim associations and of mosques that are all said to have extremist sympathies here in france and there's already been some repercussions seen with attacks being investigated including attack that took place last week in order in the west of france and that was against 2 jordanians a brother and a sister who were quite hospital treatment they. see they were attacked because they were speaking arabic now the charge against president has been led by the turkish president president hu on who suggested twice in recent days that matter corn needs a mental health track but even here in france some muslim association say that they do not want these quantrill herschel cartoons to be shown in schools between freedom of expression and the deliberate will to offend the feelings of muslims there is the duty of brotherhood and responsibility there's also a growing fear here in france one poll recently showed that 79 percent of people
2:04 pm
who responded that really believed that islam is some had declared war on the country of france and the recalls for increased vigilance particularly around places of worship and in gatherings and that warning comes from france's director general of the national police who believes that the terror threat here is particularly high in the wake of all of this this route between france and muslim majority countries seems to be widening every day and it's spilling out now into some very serious consequences just thing with this story earlier i spoke to the director of the al could center for political studies in who fears the current situation in france is worsening the understanding between different cultures in the world. it seems that we are dead in the back lash of civilization and a struggle between a little justice this is not good for the partition between the 2 shoulder shoulders of the needed today and this is a lot of problems. it's
2:05 pm
a relationship with. its mission with different fronts should be very much gentle different yet the base unit of the. image in the muslim community and you would have been the last one to 25 years and the muslim community is this different you mention very much in this video. donald trump ellis again taken aim at his democratic rival joe biden accusing him this time of making millions. he gets. dollars from russia from the right of the bat out of moscow. triad and what did he get for that he had no income no job. and he got 1500000000 from china i said to a friend of mine the biggest overall story 1st but i said is that possible to get
2:06 pm
that he said it's not possible for my firm look at it and that was the big $110000000.00 a year for our introductory purposes. to point i'd also has rejected the claims that any money was exchanged while joe biden denies all obligations against him mr trump's remarks though do come after bombshell reports of corruption and conflicts of interest within the biden family although similar allegations have also been made against the president sifting through some murky waters you're checking for that. no matter who wins the election in november both biden and trump are big names in politics now and their families will continue to cash in on that but hey they can't help who they're related to right take biden's son hunter if you don't live in a cave you've likely heard that he once served on the board of a ukrainian energy company while his dad was a v.p. now it's not exactly clear how much he pulled in there but reports say somewhere around 50 k. a month or more that point on his resume has cost his dad
2:07 pm
a never ending headache and he's both admitted that taking the position was probably a mistake and that he likely would have never gotten it if he wasn't biting there's a lot of things that would happen well life that that if my last name wasn't biden did i make a mistake well maybe in the grand scheme of things yes but that's probably not the only business decision he regrets there's also the time he flew to china with his then vice president father on air force 2. i didn't raise any eyebrows at the time biden brought family on foreign trips all the time but that's because back then that no one knew that hunter was forming a chinese private equity fund or that hunter met with a chinese banker who was his partner in the fund during the trip spokesperson says it was a social visit but that scheme was approved by shanghai authorities just days later and $100.00 didn't see any money from that until after his dad was out of office when he did it was over $400000.00 hundreds business ties to china don't stop there
2:08 pm
but well let's move on to joe's brother james there's plenty to say about him but if we focus on one thing back in 2011 while joe was leading the obama administration's iraq policy james was executive v.p. of a construction firm that landed a $1500000000.00 contract to build houses in iraq the company denied that the vice president's position had anything to do with the deal but what do you make of this deja this is his name helps him get in the door but it doesn't help him get business people who have important names tend to get in the do easier but it doesn't mean success if he. the name of he would get in the door easier to be fair those contracts did fall through but it's things like that that makes trump jr say things like this the biden family is the most corrupt political family in american history i'm pretty sure that video is what pops up when looking for the meaning of the phrase the pot calling the kettle black because the trump kids are 2 and just fine control of the trump organization was handed to don jr and his brother eric by
2:09 pm
their father when he took office due to conflict of interest issues but in 2017 promotional materials from trump tower mumbai were not boasting a connection to quote u.s. space real estate tycoon celebrity and potest donald trump the office of the president can't be used for personal benefit guys so the ads which are said to have been unapproved were pulled trump also put her fashion line into a temporary trust before taking a role in the white house and yet reports of her company having trademarks fast tracked keep cropping up she rubbed shoulders with xi jinping and the same day several new ones are approved and speaking of her fashion lines right after an appearance on 60 minutes alongside her father after his election it was jewelry company sent out a blast promoting a $10000.00 bracelet from the line she was wearing during the interview it was promised that things that the company were still being sorted out after the election but it wasn't the 1st time mix politics and business she previously used a speech at an r. and c.
2:10 pm
convention to her clothing line and there's also the fact that while trump was in the midst of an election his kids opened up trump international hotel in d.c. it's an honor to stand before you today and officially welcome to trump international hotel and tower washington d.c. and that has led several foreign dignitaries to come visit the president paying his kids for their accommodations all this nepotism and what looks like selling access to powerful men runs a fine line when it comes to legality but man it's got to be great from their perspective. resentment in europe can. tin used to grow over new covert rules although countries have stopped short of full lock downs again people are choosing to fly at the restrictions currently in place there are riots in barcelona gathered in a central square protesting against the state of emergency imposed across spain and ignored life perfect people also said bins on fire near the regional parliament
2:11 pm
similar scenes in italy where several cities saw a protest get out of hand on the right of your screen that's turin smoke bombs were let off their bottles for a look police to riot officers resorted to using tear gas we got reaction to the new italian and spanish measure. as you can see italy is rebelling this government has decided to suppress the italian people to starve them to death we hope that this government will fall soon one of. these a quite drastic measures but they are kind of in the middle it's not a real look down it's a look down by holmes. this makes me suspect that in the end the problem will transform from a cemetery issue into an economic one and that is where the real problem lies. pretty much it's a disaster it will be devastating for many people and many families that work in the nightlife industry here all in russia daily infection rates soar soaring again
2:12 pm
recently hitting more than $16.00 and local authorities in moscow though are reluctant to return to a full locked on taking us through developments here. seem to be far from a full lock down but the numbers aren't looking good at all like you said we have a new record that is a total of $16550.00 new cases and that is just in one day and also 320 deaths we didn't see numbers like that in the spring so this is the worst result for the country since the pandemic broke out and the authorities are forced to ask us to act story starting from this week russians in all regions all require the countries will have to wear masks and all publics places be it an elevator or a bus or a shopping center anything now this is
2:13 pm
a must and it's been decided by the russian health watchdog and not everyone is happy which explains instances like this one when for example a staff member of the public transport was attacked for asking the passenger to wear a mask in these cases do happen similar ones and different cities of russia now something else that's been recommended by russia's health watchdog was for the heads of regions to shut the doors of bars 'd and nightclubs all across the country from 11 pm to 6 am however this is not obligatory for now and the regions will decide themselves what to do with that work commendation for instance this kind of decision has already been made and st petersburg where the bar nightclub doors were shut however moscow is reluctant to do that just yet they've introduced
2:14 pm
a special q.r. code system so if you want to get into a bar during the night you have to use your phone for that and if a positive covert test gets into the database the people that were in the club. i gather with that person they will be informed through s.m.s. that they need to be careful and they need to pass a test now speaking of the things that are happening in the region cold it is taking over russia and we do understand that in the city of samarra for example where the situation is getting worse that's one of the biggest russia cities and between moscow and siberia medical students are being rushed to help out. their fellow doctors that are are from the older generation here's what we heard from one such student should we stand aside when our colleagues are working in clinics and middle sitting over 5 years already chased significantly since the 1st day when i came here to work at hospital i'm not a child anymore i don't feel like
2:15 pm
a student the head of russia's health watchdog is warning that it seems that everyone in russia will have to wear a mask still the population gets full access to the vaccine we don't know when exactly that's going to happen but what we do know is that the head of the fund that is behind russia's most pioneering vaccine he's applied to the world health organization for some kind of quicker registration of the vaccine that's being developed in the country by the way one of the latest updates speaking of some of the v.i.p. politicians in russia is that surrogate of the russian foreign minister is currently in self isolation after having contacted someone with a positive covert test. a palestinian teenager has died after allegedly being attacked by israeli soldiers and happened in the west bank on sunday when the
2:16 pm
18 year old on his friends were chased by troops the victim's father claims that the soldiers beat his son to death. my son in the market was killed in cold blood when he wasn't going to fight israelis or anything his friend's car broke down and he went to help him then the israeli soldiers followed him my son didn't know anything about the area he went to so he was driving around looking for his friend so the soldiers followed him and then started beating him until late killed him without any reason he wasn't carrying a weapon or anything else to fight them with he was a peaceful citizen going to help his friend the israeli army says the man tripped over and hit his head while being chased and that his death was caused by head injury the soldiers were sent to the area after reports of stones being thrown out an army vehicle palestinian officials however claimed the teenager had been severely beaten before arriving at hospital demanding an international probe of the
2:17 pm
man's family are coming to terms with their loss. this area is a peaceful and stable area everyone is occupied with their work and their own business given the. met is a tragedy he was the only help in the aid to his father who has multiple health issues. because our son's life isn't worthless and i spent my life and lost my health raising my son to be a man and to feed his family then i lose it man attend his funeral that doesn't make any sense. several major u.s. companies with american defense contracts are to face sanctions by china after beijing was under washington's recent multibillion dollar arm sales to taiwan lockheed martin boeing and rithy and are among those facing restrictions. may 20th useful to see u.s. arms sales to taiwan seriously violate the one china principle he did fear in
2:18 pm
china's internal affairs and severely undermined china's sovereignty and security interests the move has sent the wrong signal to the taiwan independence a session is forces and jeopardize china u.s. relations as well as peace and stability across the taiwan strait china firmly opposed as this. china plays a significant role in the profits solve those american firms for example almost a quarter of boeing's $28.00 in revenue came from the country the chinese government seems taiwan a renegade province while taiwan considered itself a sovereign nation the u.s. has supported taipei for a decade seen as part of a wider geo political strategy to current or china but our colleagues at r t america discuss the broader issue of the confrontation between the u.s. and china with author john perkins. i almost get the sense that most countries smaller countries like
2:19 pm
a lot in america are helpless to the powers of these giant corporations and to a certain extent the u.s. government whereas in this case china is doing to the united states what most of those small countries have not been able to do to get my drift absolutely correct i think that's that's very true and i think we have to. like it or not china is a growing power and being accepted by many parts of the world well i think we missed a very big mistake once that soviet union and it in 1991 and we had an opportunity to show the world how good capitalism and democracy could be and we had we had both cultivation nowadays our structural adjustment policies on countries we need them won't we insist that their politics be consistent with ours or at least that they help our companies we don't really care whether they were dictators or. presidents as long as they open the door for us corporations but we made very very strong
2:20 pm
conditionalities china has made a point of not you know they're saying listen we want to we want to trade with these countries we don't care we're trying to governments they have and in the end you know i'm not justify one system versus the other un-american i want to see us do a lot better but what i am saying is that it's winning the hearts and minds of people because people resent when their countries when their governments have rules imposed on them by other countries. a tech startup whose i phone unlocking program is used by police across the u.s. has raised $47000000.00 in new funding the money will aid criminal investigations but critics are warning about a lack of oversight. these law enforcement agencies use the mobile device forensic tools far more than previously documented and used them in a broad array of cases they do so with few policies or legal constraints in place
2:21 pm
we believe that these tools are simply too powerful in the hands of law enforcement and should not be used a great shift is focused almost exclusively on getting behind the security fire walls of apple's famous device it's great he program is used by a wide range of federal agencies from immigration and customs the f.b.i. to local police agencies it cost up to $30000.00 depending on the level of expertise required. well professor of liberal studies michael reckon while those concerned about how much authority are relying on such technology it's no doubt subject to abuse and that's that's what concerns me as a civil libertarian i think that. the overuse of it is something that will probably cause problems and i think it's definitely going to a fact those that are more targeted by police than those that are usually not whenever they're doing it without without warrants for example or without cause you
2:22 pm
know for a traffic stop or you know minor drug infractions and things like that that have no should have no bearing on whether they can open your phone or not and so this could cross the line into surveillance and into want to search and seizure. and finally this news are calling famous classical composers by their last names only is sexist and it is racist that's according to the popular american online magazine slate the claims received plenty of pushback.
2:23 pm
thank. you so once last names the short term when there's no possibility of confusion. maybe it's because beethoven is so well known and doesn't need to be accompanied by his 1st name same with people who are so famous they can go by their 1st name. i want to sit in on one of your peach meetings the stories that don't make the cut have to be better than what he published. i have no idea what that means. the reason why we don't say. the 1st name of wolfgang amadeus mozart is because we know mozart it's it's shorthand
2:24 pm
it's deference it's the fact that we are lazy sometimes we say bush tromp biden who i normally can at least see the root of the concern i don't understand this but if you said for example miss mozart and miss chopin they missed if there were women and you never said mr maybe you could say how come you call the one missing the other one by one name maybe just maybe the reason why we're hearing this is to have a bit to eat and condition and get this used to in sanity so that we don't react to any more where we are hit with the most pastors crazy lunacy you think there was anybody in colleges or schools or musicology
2:25 pm
who were saying they did it every 3 time they say mozart again they're promoting white racism and homophobia i don't understand lionel wrapping up the news are a force i'm not indeed wraps it all up for this hour i'm back in 38 with all your latest updates do you hope you'll join us ben as well stay a chair now though for more great program starting in moments.
2:26 pm
2:27 pm
this question just a different. oh good this is a good start well we have our 3 banks all set up here maybe something in europe something in america something overseas in the cayman islands and it will all of these banks are complicit in the kleptocracy we just have to deal with call and say ok i'm ready to do some serious money laundering ok let's see how we did while we've got a look at that and i still dream watch for max and for stacy oh beautiful jewelry how about. luxury automobile again for max you know what money laundering is highly illegal don't you watch guys record. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy to. let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic development only mostly exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful. if you sit down and talk.
2:29 pm
