and you know about the riots erupted again in paris over a controversial bill during the filming of police officers on the program protestors and burned israeli, and american flags and nation of the killing of the country's top nuclear scientists. which quick to blame on israel. among the stories that shaped the week u.s. president elect joe biden packs his cabinet with sparking concern over washington's

intentions. with stories from the past 7 days and right up to the moment of silence. this is the weekly on r.t. international law. welcome being gripped by overnight protests or running a new security bill, which could impose tough restrictions on the filming of police officers in the capital security forces fired tear gas. the rallies descended into chaos. the french interior minister says 23 police officers were injured in a further 60 nationwide.

well, if the controversial global security law is approved in january, it would make sharing video or images of the police illegal if it's dissemination of the officers in harms way. punishment could involve a hefty fine and even a year in prison, while the government claims the law doesn't prohibit filming, if there's no ill intent. critics say the devil is in the details. it's a good issue that he's going to be able to continue. the answer is yes. are they going to be able to continue broadcasting? the answer is yes. to be allowed to feel we have police intervention. the answer is

yes. will he be able to afford to prosecute that the answer is yes. intent is a concept that is open to interpretation and hard to determine any photos or video showing a dent a fireball police officers that are published or broadcast by critical media outlets or are accompanied by critical comments, could find themselves being accused of seeking to harm these police officers, for journalists, the legal risk exists, and the possibility of conviction would be real. well, let's just show you this scene in central park on sunday morning after a wave of a little ism vehicles, torched storefronts, bus stops. dozens of arrests were made during saturday's unrest which involved an estimated $46000.00 people. journalist and political commentator alone is a movement to say is, authorities need to change their approach in order to kalm the situation. i think

the government have shot themselves because the, the bill itself is not necessarily all bad, but article $24.00 is something that has managed to bring to you position left and right. 8 the stream left and the conservative right saying that this is, this is contrary to say, not only is it contrary to essential liberties and threw out it could, it could make the not, it could make the lives of people much more dangerous and even make the work of police and more dangerous because they could be no trust and more thrills had last as long as the situation brought in so many weapons, almost all on police brutality, but also on the town to and it's in the past 2 years. and it's so it's something that will have to find a solution that it doesn't lie in an unsecured but potentially empty constitutional . no other story, we're keeping

a close eye on protesters in the iranian health. it'll have been burning of israeli and american flags in condemnation of the killing of the country's top nuclear scientists, which tehran blames on israel. iranians are demanding retaliation for the foreign minister, whose brother, the state, it's fair, the killing could affect the already faltering economy. do you buy the unresolved assassination of one of iran's top nuclear scientists, or in the words of tehran? a terror attack carried out by the mercenaries of the asserting zionist regime. mileti. you don't know who the people of iran are smarter and wiser than falling

into the trap of the zionist conspiracy. they are thinking of creating chaos. they should know that we already know their tricks, and they will not succeed in achieving their evil goals. both design and history jeem and those who are against iran should know that the path of the country's development, the path of the country's research will continue rapidly. terrorists murdered an eminent iranian scientists today. this cowardice, with serious indications of his radio shows desperate woman gring of perpetrators. iran cools on international community and especially e.u. to end the shameful double standards and condemn this act of states. tara iran's accusations have yet to evoke a response from israel. but this isn't exactly a unique situation many times over the past 10 years, iran's nuclear scientists have been the victims of mysterious assassinations and to run is almost always convinced israel was behind it.

israel's refusal to comment on the attacks has been common to all the 2018. the country's prime minister claims the recently assassinated fuckers out there wasn't just a scientist know the head of an alleged nuclear weapons program. remember the main

focus of the so here's this director right here. and he says, the general aim is to announce the closure project. but then he adds special activities. you know what that is? special activities will be carried out under the title of scientific know how development and in fact, this is exactly what iran proceeded to do. duran, however, has always said it in riches uranium for peaceful purposes only. we are not seeking nuclear weapons, even if the g.c. pioli collapses, we won't seek nuclear weapons. if the safeguard agreement is destroying, we won't seek nuclear weapons. if i relations with the i a is good or bad, he won't seek nuclear weapons. as in years before, experts on both sides of the barricades are not seeing eye to eye. of course this assassination is illegal and it's an act of war. when, let's see, a spy is arrested in iran or on a terrorist is arrested in iran,

immediately western human rights organizations, governments, the media pundits, experts all say that they're innocent as if they have some sort of insider information. yet when these attacks are carried out, these attacks are carried out with the help of spies with the help of terrorists, and they gloat over it. and instead of condemning it, they go and you know, they try to make him look as if he's evil, these lows will respond. so you cannot put the blame on these will everything, disposable in the middle east and in prison, these bodies and lead them identify them. and if they claim that he's behind it, let's see if those people are really israelis right. though i very much in 2015, iran even agreed to limit its nuclear activities for the lifting of u.s. sanctions. it was part of the j c.p.o. a deal between tehran and washington, russia and other world powers. the same deal that donald trump scrapped as the war

steel ever in 2018. and to the great praise of israel, i went through how the last administration was disastrous. iran, if i didn't terminate that stupid, the deal was a disaster. the agreement that was signed was a disaster trumps withdrawal. drew a whirlwind of criticism throughout the globe and relations between the u.s. and iran are now at rock bottom. iran has even proclaimed to the un. it has the, right to defend itself from provocations, both from israel and the u.s., but with joe biden preparing to take the throne. european powers have already sat down with him to rehash the deal with germany specifically urging all parties to avoid an escalation at any cost. a few weeks before the new u.s. administration takes office. it is important to preserve the scope for talks with iran, so that the dispute over iran's nuclear program can be resolved through negotiations . we therefore urge all parties to refrain from any steps that could lead to

a further escalation of the situation. by himself even said he's, considering diplomacy would offer to iran a credible paul to diplomacy. if iran returns to strict compliance with the nuclear deal, the united states would rejoin the agreements as a starting point for follow will negotiations. with our allies, we will work to strengthen and extend the nuclear deals provisions while also addressing other issues of concern. while iran definitely has plenty of concerns, especially after a 2nd top official, was assassinated in just one year. but who knows, maybe washington's new look, could rebuild the ruins of the j. c.p.o. a and even under a biden administration. that the purpose of u.s. foreign policy in the middle east is to regain hedge of money over the entire region, including iran, which it lost in the islamic revolution, which overthrow overly that dictator, the shah. and so they would, the game is hedge of money dominance. and whether it's true or biden,

that they, that is the game. or also this week joe biden announced his top cabinet, picks for the white house, and he said the world has its hopes resting on his team to restore america's role as a global leader. together these public servants will restore america globally scribal leadership and its moral leadership without engaging in needless military conflicts and her adversaries. in check terrorist at bay while team trump is not giving up all hope of overturning the results of the election. given the green line to allow a transition to begin, indeed a clearer picture is emerging of what a biden administration will look like. that turns out, many are a blast from the past. america's foreign policy needs to be

properly fixed after 4 years of diplomatic rock says one who says the man whose own white house mistakes as donald trump saw them, were thorley taken care of by the outgoing administration. the time has come for the u. turn to go full circle. there's been some damage done. that is going to take some time to dig ourselves out of. but there's no doubt that joe's got the right people to do it. the man taking over the oval office in 2021 was president obama's number 2. so who are the best people to set these apparent wrongs? right. well, the former deputies of obama's team, of course, how easy, i'm really starting to get that joke that brock's got himself a 3rd term. let's take a look at the collective portrait of a deputy dream team. one squad member clearly thinks it was the meddling russians who god, donald trump, elected in the 1st place. jake sullivan biden speak for national security advisor.

this was a moment where we realized that the russians had decided that they were going to actively interfere in the u.s. election. that they were going to intensively work to undermine the pillars of u.s. democracy. and that they were going to try to defeat hillary clinton. if it wasn't for the russians, if you know what i mean, this career boost would have come much earlier. after all, mr. sullivan served as an advisor for the hillary clinton campaign. and yes, he worked as a national security adviser to the vice president biden. and here we're looking at someone who was all for upping u.s. involvement in syria. tony blinken, the new man taking care of america's foreign relations in syria. it's tougher, it's longer. it's going to take time to build up the syrian opposition, but we believe it can be done. our commitment is to help them to support them, to give them the training, to give them the equipment to give them the air, the power, to give them the advisor. and it all comes back to hillary, who,

infamously said this about libya. we came, we saw he died, right. as you may have guessed, mr. blinken was among the star democrat diplomats who love the idea of getting libya sorted through intervention. his c.v. highlights include deputy secretary of state deputy national security advisor and national security advisor to the vice president. so moved on with deputy dream team, you simply don't deserve the position of intelligence director under joe biden. if you haven't been to a big name, let's say in the cia, under obama, without further ado. here's avril haynes, the former deputy cia director also happened to serve as the deputy national security advisor right after tony blinken. some give ms. hanes credit for making america's drone wars more transparent. her critics though, paint her with a different brush focusing on her role as the architect of the drone program. one

which is associated with scores of civilian deaths. a slight stain on the record, isn't it? any great team deserves at least a few qualified veterans. this one is no exception. take john kerry, he's getting his comeback. chance to the job of special presidential envoy for climate goes to the former secretary of state. bear with me for a bit of feedback on the team from someone familiar. the incoming administration could not have chosen that to pursue now for the foreign policy and national security teams. ok, at least there are no surprises, and the world knows what to expect. and we have to try to take a mystery still to come this hour construction of a key pipeline linking russia's europe is to push ahead the spikes us such as we go about story and more for you after the break

the foreign policy team of a potential buy in ministration is being counted by the liberal media. we tell you why all this should be 4 or 5. also, there's a lot of talk of a great reset and build back better looking back or bode well for the future. 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 so direct? what is true?

what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to descend to join us in the depths for a mate in the shallows. 15 minutes past the hour. welcome back and a natural gas pipeline linking russia to europe is on course to be completed. the spike us auctions, the company building north stream 2 has said construction of a section off the german coast, which had been frozen for a year will soon restart. we are planning to resume by playing recusing and german, his exclusive economic zone. this year. the ship mentioned there is no, i heard off the coast of russia's kaliningrad region according to marine traffic

data. last month, the u.s. state department stepped up its pressure on european firms involved in the pipeline . project measures include penalties for a vessel owners and insurance, but not the energy giants that are financing the construction. a senior german energy official who we spoke to describe washington's behavior as gangster, like currently u.s. pressure over north stream to has reached an unprecedented high. it's not tempted by the americans to lobby their economic interests to go behind the backs of their supposed partners. actually, this behavior reminds me of the matthew matthew, come to the restaurant and say, we must protect you. but if you don't pay for this, we will smash all your places and it's the same thing here. the americans say they protect us from the russians. but in fact, we don't want this protection. we want to trade with the russians. we want russian gas, and then they say, if you don't let us protect you, we will kill you. in other words, they impose sanctions on companies,

threaten them with economic collapse, and this is what's actually happening. but we must reject such methods, simply objecting to them is pointless. only real action will help the kremlin has questioned washington's motives in trying to block nord stream to spokesman. dmitri peskov called it a display of on for a competition. north stream 2 is the 2nd stage of a pipeline network linking russia to germany via the baltic sea. once completed, it will pump enough gas to supply. 'd 26000000 european homes from the i said washington as the scribed as a threat to european energy security and has urged the e.u. to ditch the project. but be john saly from germany's left party, told us it is crucial for berlin to see the plans through i believe that the technical expertise that is collected and the companies involved with not soon to is immense. they have some of the greatest engineers working on this challenge,

and they have solved most of the technical challenges. the remaining legal challenge us most new product of interference of foreign interference by the united states. but they will be overcome, and the government seems to be holding firm behind the austrian to project, which is of course, all absolutely vital interests to the current transition away from coal and dark energy to watts renewable sources and clean natural gas. would of course be a part of the future energy mix of germany and to ensure that supply we need to. and i do believe that there are enough people in the german federal government that on the stat, the vital importance of this project to make it through to the end. the

u.k. has been slow and for holding asylum seekers in prison like conditions at a disused army barracks. activists want the site to be closed, saying its flights covert rules while those inside have been stopped from speaking to the media are to be at risk travel. there and they were even if before you would see why you talking don't like that. why do you think about it? so there's something wrong. the government stands accused of trying to cover up the problem. the home office introduced a gagging clause in the form of a confidentiality waiver, centuries silencing visitors from speaking out about what they see inside the barracks. my efforts to talk to people on the inside of the barracks proved futile as long as security was around. so we just arrived here at napier barracks and just as we got here, a man came out of his window and he started screaming help out. so he pointed and gestured overhead. we came over here and the security man prevented him from the as

you can see, the security guard is still there and it seems like he is calling for more. but why can't they speak to us on? why don't you let them speak to us? if they want to speak to us, they can speak to us. at the same time, i need to talk to the full military base napier barracks, in folkston, in kent has recently been turned into an assessment and a special facility that houses around $400.00 asylum seekers. all men, some of whom have made their way to the u.k. across the english channel. the government is obligated to find accommodation for asylum seekers while the claims are being processed. but the cave in 1000 pandemic has left local authorities desperate to find enough housing, having to resort to using sites like this one in kent, those on the inside told me the conditions are far from livable. i don't feel what they say, but because the neighbor is a very tired of this place, i threw a to be able to have only one choice. here. i thought i needed

the toilet. i said is right about if you need fix all you have to go go outside and you know it's very cold blooded, no safety because the hobo his maintains however, that these protocols underpinned by the official secrets act are essential. we have worked closely with our accommodation provider, clear springs, ready homes and stakeholders to ensure the napier site is safe and secure. this includes an agreement with staff to provide silent seekers with privacy and confidentiality. as would be expected, volunteers and medics have sounded the alarm over the conditions. this footage shot by a resident shows cramped sleeping areas, cornett off by sheets. refugee himself has been bringing clothes and essential items to the camp. he says the military environment in the barracks could trigger a trauma for those inside knowing a lot of asylum seekers. been through trauma one with again,

you will see 3 in prosecution, free in regimes that imprisoned them false, imprisoned them and told shouldn't be in place. and just use military bags and it's going to a lot of them in terms of these also it's just demonizing. as more reports, imagine protests, hunger strikes and even suicide attempts. it's unclear what the future of these and similar sites will be. but for the residents, a decision can't come soon enough. only i dream. i think we've reached trying. going to be free shots at woodstock r.t. u.k. can't police in argentina have raided the home of a doctor who treated the late football legend. officer sees laptops, mobile devices on medical records, local media saying the physician has been charged with manslaughter, denied any wrongdoing. the doctor gave an interview in the past number of hours

saying he did everything he could to help his patient and that quote, someone is trying to find a scapegoat for the footballers to daughters earlier claimed their father's heart attack was caused by medical negligence. meanwhile, fans across the world have been saying their final goodbyes tomorrow. donna, who died on wednesday at the age of 60. the diego, for the argentinians, is like a hero. people always have heroes came from the heroes. she was with the argentinians needed. he always came to the defense. he showed us that it is possible to be the humblest nation and take on the most powerful

enemy maraton and to me is everything, not just in terms of food bowl, but also in every aspect, the man, the food bowl or his home character. i don't think we do that. i've been following him everywhere since the world cup. i'm 9090 when i ran away from home, just to watch him play

when we ever see his like again, rest in peace, diego a lot as a wrap up for us by the work. great programs get their start in moments after a look ahead at what's on offer a few here and r.t. over the coming week. i mean o'neill, signing off for join me every thursday on the alex simon short. and i'll be speaking to guest in the world of sport. i'm sure i'll see you then.

we are segregated by social class law school class, people also in poverty 1st class. if you're born into a 4 family, 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 younger than here. born into generational poverty. it's a tough fight every day. so you meet your needs and the needs of your family. significant others in your arms or their whatever source for that's what he does, but i thought it would be almost 0 if on the last one,

but i don't want to turn off this one is there no better but we did enough and there was some of that but enough of the most of it other than the end, you know, there's some sound of that and you can release the book. it took me over the c.c. . i wanted to keep ducking, the ones i don't know the money . you know, the name of the things you know, you're not seeing is a woman. well then i looked up at the number of other guys i'm going to be in tomorrow. yeah. try to be.
