and it is about heresies, a new wave of civil unrest. as the french government pushes for a law, making it a criminal offense to publish images of police. our correspondent was caught up in the chaos. and we all cell is quite full simply shocked by the police, my cameraman grabbed by offices while he was filming, while we were trying to do an interview, an australian, a military inquiry, uncovers a series of horrific killings by the country's forces in afghanistan, thousands of civilians,

are believed to have been tortured and murdered world anti-doping agency accuses the us of double standards after the senate passes a bill to jail. those behind doping in sport except in american leagues, are broadcasting live europe for our studios in moscow. recapping the week's top stories with our weekly program, this is our team international, are now in french, a bill intended to protect the police, has sparked outrage and several days of rioting in paris. the new measure, criminalizes the filming of officers, if it is done with malicious intent, has been passed by the national assembly and will later go to the senate for approval.

holderness. as you can see, police vehicles are moving down and pushing the protesters down that the street protesters who've come a time came to global security. look to draw. 7 for real that's being discussed in the national assembly on tuesday evening. this is a more which includes an element which if prost could make it illegal for people to disseminate to record and publish images of police officers. if there is intent to harm criminalizing chanelle of could lead to

morning, i am presuming and after 45000 500, thank you. thank you for help. i've seen women having their hay young and being abused to be grabbed by the head to be thrown to the floor by police officers, medics being hit by police battens. and in fact, as we were just at the metro station filming some of the violence against the protesters, we ourselves were forcibly chucked out by the police, my cameraman, who grabbed by offices while he was filming, while we were trying to do an interview and ejected from not crowd that ok, the image is over, the police are protests, have been used time and time again,

showing the violence that's been used that this law would essentially stop. that's what unions say, they say that it is censorship. however, the government says this new is needed to protect police officers from the violence because while i'm talking about the police hitting protesters trying to move them around, we have also seen violence towards the police this evening. we've seen bottles thrown into woods and far as being lit. we have seen destruction here on the streets of paris with the shelters being smashed in. so there is violence on both sides. and the government says this noor is needed to protect the police. police unions say it doesn't go far enough and if it is a choice between freedom of the press and liberty, when it comes to showing these images to the security of their offices, they will side with the security of their offices every time the reality is it is been brutal like with violence from both sides, but from where we have stood,

the violence has been mainly coming from the police to watch protesters who for the most part we haven't witnessed them doing anything to well deserve some of the violence i've observed this evening journalists and international organizations have lashed out at the french security bill. the u.n. has called it a thread to freedom of expression. we discussed of the reforms with french journalists. violence may be used within the framework of the law where there is so stefansson. or if the use is strictly necessary and proportionate and but only only the possibility of filming freely without constraints gives these guarantees. but the rockets are out of this low that does not like the expression of police violence because he thinks that there is legitimate and illegitimate violence. i think in a nutshell, we can say that france is experiencing an authoritarian bonapartists rift,

as it has unfortunately often experienced in its past. i'm sorry to say that journalism is the cornerstone of a healthy society. you wouldn't have if you're familiar with the case of alexander ben, allow the bodyguard of president mccall or you would have george floyd if people did not film those events. you would know. and if you don't know, you slip into dark, you know, use and, and that, that article to me for which is part of a, along with the body cause in a war as is detrimental to journalism. there's already c.c.t.v. cameras everywhere. there's people from coming in over the everybody's got a cell phone, you cannot stop people from filming. the australian military inquiry has concluded that blood lust and competition killing may have provoked the country's special forces to murder dozens of afghan civilians. so those horrific

cases appear to have been part of an initiation ritual for new troops. there is credible information. the junior soldiers were required by their patrol commanders to shoot a prisoner in order to achieve the soldier's 1st kill in a practice that was known as bloody special forces inside has pointed to a number of deeply concerning norms within australian special forces, including the shift from unacceptable behavior to war crimes the glorifying of these crimes as being a good soldier, competition, killing, and blood lust. the afghan foreign ministry has described the murders as an forgivable and called for justice to be served. but for many afghans already scarred by years of war and regular reports of war crimes by the u.s. led coalition, the findings came as no surprise. afghans were killed as if our blood was worthless . the foreign soldiers come here to serve their own interests, not to help us. an apology is not the solution. the afghan government must make sure that no foreign soldier can get away with killing afghans. then there are

console, just killed. many afghans in the past and the u.s. would condemn the actions of its soldiers, but then do nothing about it. i'm sure the same will happen in australia because for them, one of their soldiers is worth a 1000000 afghans. the australian foreign ministry has written a formal apology to kabul for the atrocities, but as comments such apologies tend not to result in any real action. 2 eggs, australia, and afghanistan, thousands of kilometers apart. one a very keen to help the other. we remind committed as i.e. nation to assisting afghanistan in resisting it. terrorism. resisting the taliban forces providing in cooperation with other countries. i label of stability and to live the lives curity

. as it you'll country can build for still a strong and prosperous and secure future. it took the australian prime minister a bit more than 13 hours to fly over to kabul to say all that a bit more than 13 years ago. by then, australian troops had already been engaged in the war torn country for several years, almost 20 years ago since the aussies got involved. their number one military man has no other choice, but to say, sorry, i sincerely and unreservedly apologize for any wrongdoing. by a stray in soldiers. i say no choice because allegations of 39 civilian deaths at the hands of his defense force as a result of blood lust and competition. killing deserve an apology or actually much more than that large parts of the military report. we can't even read their blacked out, but even what's available, sounds horrendous and disgusting. this shameful record includes alleged

instances in which new patrol in the members were coerced, to shoot a prisoner in order to achieve that soldier's 1st kewl in an appalling practice known as bloody atrocities. ranged from reports of troops killing a 6 year old child and a house raid to a prisoner being shot dead to save space and a helicopter apology given measures to be taken culprits to be punished. compensation to be paid. but just think of how many times since 2001, we heard the same kind of stuff from the kolisch. it was just one of the cause of president obama spoke by telephone to apologize and express his condolences for the m.s.f.

staff and patients who were killed and injured. sincere apologies for any offense. this may have caused my apologies to the president of afghanistan, and we will make sure that anybody who was involved is held fully accountable with the full force of the law. it all makes you wonder, just how many more thousands of deaths or command full pause. we're still unaware of, especially when it's revealed how much the people in charge were in denial about what they were doing. the problem is there is a disincentive, really, to tell the truth. we have created an incentive, so almost to require or for people to la. so well, the latest report that left the aussies red faced lead 20 strategic consequences and military mindset u. turns. well, judging by how badly trumps plans to cut the troop presence in afghanistan have been received. is just wishful thinking for now. we've been in afghanistan for

almost 20 years, and no nato ally wants to stay any longer than necessary. but at the same time, the price for leaving too soon, or in including 1000 when he could be very high in afghanistan, risk becoming once again a platform for terrorists to plan and organize attacks on a young man's. so i guess it means more apologies could only be on the way the former governor of afghanistan's gardening, a province says that the actions of australian forces follow a long running pattern in the coalition. these are something that is very serious and we feel that that is beyond our comprehension. and i'm really appalled for that that. how could anybody and the name of humanity will live and do that, especially with this poor afghan people. and we hope that that will manifest to something real and not only for the australian,

but also other nato countries. and also, united states who have committed similar acts in afghanistan also needs to pay heed to this issue and reconcile their own differences that i have done in afghanistan. the world anti-doping agency has criticised the us build to jail those involved in sports doping except in us leagues. water says it will destabilize global anti-doping efforts by giving the country's domestic athletes a free pass. and you do bring agency wishes to understand why this legislation excludes vast areas of u.s. support. in particular, the professional leagues and all college sport. it is not good enough for american sports. why is it fine for the rest of the world? washington's rolled out its latest offensive in the war on performance enhancing drugs. it's called the rod chank of act, the right of anti doping act of 2019 which strengthen the integrity of

international sports competitions by imposing criminal sanctions on certain persons involved in international doping fraud conspiracy. the act would green light washington for legal action against doping conspirators in games involving american players and it outlines some have to be penalties, fines of up to $1000000.00, as well as prison sentences of up to 10 years. a dream come true for the usa today . it is a monumental day in the fight for clean sport worldwide, and we look forward to seeing the act soon become law and help change the game for clean athletes for the good. considering how the u.s. is treated domestic doping in the past. the log book could probably use of updates take julian edelman, the patriots shining star and super bowl m.v.p. his career seen some great achievements with a little help from dope patriots wide receiver julian edelman is facing a 4 game suspension for performance enhancing substances. a 4 game suspension is

quite a long leap away from 10 years in the can for edelman though, the cushy treatment didn't end there. he was still showered with awards at the years and even sealed advertisement deals. there are no rules in basketball. it's a similar story. last year basketball, prodigy de andre ate and was caught doping up, his punishment, jail. just kidding. he was suspended for $25.00 games and then showed up on the jimmy kimmel show. he's a member of the n.b.a. all rookie team from the phoenix suns. say hello to deion 38. hello, do you agree? and here's the best part. he's now the face of a protein health shake commercial eyes on the prize. thanks to you to washington's long made it clear. they take doping in sports very seriously. when of course it suits their agenda. this

has nothing to do with lee's welfare or looking after teens. if they did, it would be totally different stuff looking out for the it's not going to those. you go for the sponsors of the sport. it's simply looking out for the interests of the hollanders, media, and government. it's nothing to do with us whether because it was about the welfare they would have brought it in across in order that all the major league sports in america would sign of the city to water. but you won't do that because the owners of the big major sports teams and media networks who cover them, and this huge be massive. it's yours and investors in these sports won't happen. so this has nothing to do actually, whether this is simply about greeks and the dollar coming up, refugees return to their homes in the not going to know kind about region,

our correspondent about guns report there on the ground. when we come back, stay with us. this is the weekly the world is driven by shaped by one person if there is no dares thinks we dare to ask the newly elected us presidents invariably well to steer the country in a fresh,

bold direction. this time, those things may be a bit different. that least on foreign policy, joe biden has promised to reengage with allies and restore the us his position as leader of the democratic world. now, with the biden administration on the global stage, will we see a new approach or a return to the old ways. welcome back to the weekly right here on arch international troops between armenia and azerbaijan continues to hold in the disputed region with russian peacekeepers deployed in the area. those forces are now helping refugees turn to their homes, returned rather. but as artie's magazine found out, it's not an easy homecoming who war may be over, but the humanitarian situation here,

instapundit here is still dial scenes like this are repeated hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of times across the city and left to their own devices, look, emergency workers would be overwhelmed. this is why russia has sent help aside from peacekeepers who patrol the routes and heights rusher also said civilian rescuers, engineers, father and builders. they gauge the devastation and estimate how much aid will be required. it's neither easy nor quick. let's go for the next one. how many do you have on your list? oh, there are too many. how many have we visited today? about 50. neither is it pleasant. every creator has a story. every destroyed home has its ghosts and with almost every visit, we hear again and again about how he were a she were all of them died when they were in this room

2 cousins. and my grandmother, i was in the room over there, which wasn't destroyed and i fell of my bed, opened my eyes and only saw dust. it took me 5 minutes to crawl out the window. help has come from all over the world, humanitarian organizations, luko and russian. rescuers catalog ruin. after wreckage, our 1st task is to cover all the broken windows and glass, so people can survive the winter. it's some pleasant. even scary. i had some role in the construction of many of these buildings is painful for the priority now is making catabolic, livable again, wreckage will be cleared later, but light damage has to be repaired. now people are doing what they can, plastering, move a small holes and covering empty window frames with plastic sheets. but they're

a law and even for that, my house wasn't hit so that the last way for live blew the windows song out. but there who missed which suffered much worse, really can't complain. the city is slow coming back to life, the shock of the war ease wearing off and with every returning refugees. there is a sense that the city of state by the character has come back from the dead. but in every street there is a somber reminder that life will never be the same. and some people just can't come back. every day we drive by this house, and it's a sad sight, every time, a dog guarding a house that's been destroyed. and the family that isn't there more, i guess dia of from the peace deal was signed between armenia and azerbaijan. 2 weeks ago and it ended more than 6 weeks of deadly fighting over the

nagorno-karabakh region. the territorial feud has been ongoing for almost 30 years by coup and yerevan will hold on to their current military positions. armenia will keep control of the disputed regions, largest city step on a carrot and i was about john will take the 2nd biggest city shushi which it captured just before fighting ended. armenia will also have to hand over 3 other districts. meanwhile, police in our media have a detained more than 90 protesters during the rallies against the peace deal. demonstrations that have been ongoing for almost 2 weeks, demanding the resignation of prime minister and young, who they have branded a traitor. but the premier says that he had no other choice, but to sign that truce, and that if the conflict had continued tens of thousands of armenians would have died. world leaders have called for united response to the pandemic at the g 20 summit, which has just drawn to

a close today, a gathering of the world's largest economies was held by video link up for the 1st time. and it was hosted by saudi arabia, which currently holds the rotating presidency of the g. 20. together. those countries make up 85 percent of the global economy. in a closing declaration, they pledged to help low income countries deal with the economic impact of covert 19, and support the distribution of affordable vaccines. earlier my colleagues ask you, taylor discussed a range of issues with saudi arabia's permanent representative to the u.n. . tasting of the summit hasn't been without control of a say to national no, to that women's empowerment feat says predominantly on the t 20 agenda. despite the fact that activists have spared had to campaign for women's right on languishing in jail facing trial, that's that quote. what's your response to the odds? the strides that have been made by saudi arabia over the past few years are

impeccable and unprecedented. we have more to push through this is for women economically for women in the workplace, in the field of education, in many aspects of common life in places of leadership, in government and in business. and it's kind of be judged by the situation over a few individuals who have come across the law and being held under the procedures of the legal system. in his opening speech, king solomon said the country's need to create the conditions for affordable and equitable access to covert fax scenes. could you tell us a little bit about your country's efforts to achieve that goal? we committed $500000000.00 to do that, and we also made addition contributions to the world health organization. and we will continue to, to help in the development in the companies that are working again. but he says

that is being baited flotsam efforts. and also said in his summit speech, that vaccines should be the property of all of humanity, and that russia is willing. and it's not the fast time. it's not thought to provide countries in need with all vaccines. would saudi arabia be one of those and does it support a global program like that? we would certainly be a party to, to that effort. and if any vaccine is developed, it's other events will also be made available to the entire world. i also want to talk a little bit about international relations. abidin pos has cool to saudi arabia, a quite pariah state, not snatching a for the long running military campaign in yemen. how is saudi arabia thing to deal with such, anita? well, i'm sure that we will be developing stronger relationship with mr. biden's ministration in the same manner that's we have developed good as strong relations with tens of administrations before that. we have declared that one sided ceasefire several

times in yemen, talking about who initiated the situation and the threats of famine. all of that is happening on the territories controlled by the who sees. because of the fact that there, hindering and obstructing the delivery of international aid to the, to these affected areas. back in march, we saw that was an oil price down tof between moscow and riyadh. and the result was that moscow and aipac failed to agree on a production caught which led to a crash in the global price of crude. many people worried, how can such disputes be avoided all prevented in the future? i think cross-court of the nation is taking place between the kingdom and the russian federation. and we have all of proven to ourselves and to the entire warrant that cooperation and understanding achieves better results than confrontation and going it alone. and i think that relations with russia on a good standing on the old front and don't on many other fronts as well. this has

been weekly on arch international. be back with a look, stay with us. well look forward to talking to people must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such conflict with the 1st law should be very careful about official intelligence to the point is to create trust with artificial intelligence will summon the demon to protect its own existences.

with nothing really settled, some of trump's enemies want the president and his supporters to be a price for the past 4 years. and in rumors of war, as trump tries to bring troops home, some say instead to start a war welcome

to worlds apart from all their differences in style, joe biden. and donald trump, not in that direction when it comes to the promises they're making today. american people acting before a war is building back that are making sure that the rules of international trade on the rigged against used companies. this is not trump, this is biden. while the differences in style intil have been really enough for a major change in u.s. policy to discuss that i'm now joined by wiles' larsen professor at the university of north carolina to chapel hill and aspirate on u.s. foreign policy and transatlantic relations. professor larsen, it's good to talk to you. thank you very much for your time. you're welcome. it's a nice to be here. well, he said recently that whatever are the final results of the u.s. national figure, law abiders will review the asian or policies because, you know,

really means broccoli in her house. i'm not, i'm with you don't know why they didn't add council just that. there was an almost bipartisan commission or policies because if you look at joe biden's least promise is especially in bits. and they really look like restyled paste role label. and the worst of what a needle blast michigan's national drape. what sharon you for all that have repudiated interruptions, carrots have the democrats really rejected that those are his policies. yeah. if you would like to disagree, i think you'll say see a real shift. i mean, the promise was of course and still is that he's not a real democrat. yes, kaley authoritarian tendencies. we see that in this refusal to leave the white house to concede the election to joe biden, though it.
