fix this, i'm show business. i'll see you. then the riots erupted in paris over a controversial bill aimed at restricting the filming of police officers. protesters in the run up burn israeli, and american flags over the killing of the country's top nuclear scientist, which was quick to blame on israel and among the stories that shape of the week u.s. president elect joe biden, pax's a cabinet with hawks sparking concern over washington's intentions abroad

broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow. recapping the week's top stories with our weekly program. this is our international right now. france was gripped by protests on saturday night over a new security bill, which could impose tougher restrictions on the filming of police officers. in the capital security forces fired tear gas as the rallies descended into chaos. $23.00 police officers were injured in paris and 60 nationwide. i

know if the controversial global security law is approved in january, it would make a sharing video or images of the police illegal. if it's dissemination put officers in harm's way, punishment could involve a hefty fine, and even a year in prison, while the government claims that the law doesn't prohibit filming, if there is no ill intent, critics say the devil is in the details, it's going to show that he's going to be able to continue feeling the answer is yes . are they going to be able to continue broadcasting? the answer is yes, us really is going to be allowed to film the 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 to 5 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. this was the scene in central paris on sunday morning vehicles were torched and storefronts and bus stops smashed. dozens of arrests were made during saturday's unrest which involved an estimated 46000 people. nationwide journalist and political commentator and elizabeth believes authorities need to change their approach in order to calm tensions. i think the governors have shot themselves because the, the bill itself is not necessary. all the article $24.00 is something that has managed to bring to your position left and right. 8 the extreme left and

the conservative right saying that this is, this is contrary to say, not only is it contrary to essential liberties and throw 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 anymore through has had less has less the situation brought in so many ways, 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, but it doesn't lie in an unsecure to you. that's potentially anti constitutional. protesters in the iranian capital have been a burning, israeli, and american flags over the killing of the country's top nuclear scientist, which tehran blames on israel. iranians are demanding retaliation for what the foreign minister has branded an act of state terror. it is feared the killing could

hit the already faltering iran nuclear deal. 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 fall 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 the zionist regime and those who are against iran should know that the path of the country's development is 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 iran is almost always convinced israel was behind it.

israel's refusal to comment on the attacks has been common to all though in 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 name focus of the so here's this directive 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. however, has always said it enriches 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 safeguards agreement is destroying, we won't seek nuclear weapons. if our relations with the 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 that 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 these, let's see if those people are really israelis right now. very much in 2015, iran even agreed to limit its nuclear activities for the lifting of u.s. sanctions. it was part of the jay 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 germinate 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 pause, bucked the 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 hedging monye 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 a hedge of money dominance. and whether it's true or biden, that they, that is the game power. also, this week joe biden announced his top cabinet picks for the white house. he said the world is looking to his team to restore america's role as a global leader. together these public servants will restore america globally

scoble leadership and its moral leadership without engaging in needless military conflicts and our adversaries in check and cherished at bay. while team trump is not giving up all hope of overturning the result of the election. it has now given the green light to allow a transition to begin. indeed, a clearer picture is emerging of what a biden administration will look like. and as it turns out, many of the faces 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 has 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 advisor 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 that 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 moving 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 2 percent now for the foreign policy and national security teams. ok, at least there are no surprises. and the world knows what to expect. still to come this hour construction of a key gas pipeline linking russia to europe is to push ahead. despite u.s. sanctions that story much more of short break, this is our g international and the weekly is your media a reflection of reality? in a world transformed what will make you feel safe,

isolation or community? are you going the right way or are you being led by what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted. you need to descend to join us in the depths, aura made in the shallowness. join me every thursday on the alec simon show and i'll be speaking to us of the world of politics. sports business, i'm show business. i'll see you then. welcome

back. this is the weekly on our team international. now a guide gas pipeline linking russia to europe is on course to be completed despite u.s. sanctions. the company building, nordstrom too, has said construction of a section off the german coast, which had been frozen for a year will soon restart. we're planning to resume by playing work using an anchor vessel in german is exclusive economic zone. this year, the ship mentioned a very is now anchored off the coast of russia's kaliningrad region according to marine it traffic data. last month, the u.s. state department stepped up pressure on european firms involved in the project. the measures include penalties for vessel owners and insurers, but not the energy giant that are financing the construction is senior german energy official described 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 c, 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 a nordstrom to spokesman. dmitri peskov called it a display of unfair competition nord stream to will pump gas from russia to germany through the baltic sea. once completed, it can supply $26000000.00, european homes. washington sees it as a threat to european energy security and has urged of the e.u.

to ditch the project. but germany's left party believes it's crucial for berlin to see through the plans. 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 german government seems to be holding firm behind the austrian 2 project, which is of course, all absolutely vital interests to the current transition away from coal and dark energy to watch 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 understand the vital importance of this project to make it through to the end of the year. kerry has been slammed for holding migrants in prison like conditions at a disused army barracks. activists want of the side closed, saying it flouts covert rules. while those inside have had to sign confidentiality agreements, artie's shut it edwards dot. he has more even if before you would see why you talking don't like that. why do you think of 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. and 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? we want to know 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 you. 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 i say, but because the neighbor is a very tired of this place, i threw a to be able to help all you on the toilet here for the toilet. and so it is not about a fairly thick show. you have to go, go outside and you know it's very cold blooded, no safety because the hobo office 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 to provide silent seekers with privacy and confidentiality.

as would be expected, volunteers and medics have sounded the alarm there for the conditions. this footage shot by a resident shows cramped sleeping areas. cornett off by sheets at a 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. beautiful trauma, one with the journey of all 16 prosecution fleeing regimes that imprisoned them false, imprisoned them, and tortured them, being poor, place in and then just use military back then it's going to a lot of them in terms of these also it's just demonizing as more reports imagist, 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 didn't think we reached the town, going to be free shots r t u k. can't

police in argentina have raided the home of a doctor who had been treating the late football legend, diego dawna officers seized the laptops, mobile devices, and medical records. the doctor is being investigated for potential manslaughter. he has denied any wrongdoing, and in an interview a short while ago he said he did everything he could to help his patient and claimed people were looking for a scapegoat. footballers' 2 daughters earlier claimed their father's heart attack was caused by medical negligence. meanwhile, fans across the world have been mourning donna, who died on wednesday at the age of 60.

but here you go for the argentinians is like a hero. i always have heroes cake and the heroes. she wouldn't be argentina's natives, but i always came to the defense showed us that it was possible to be the communist nation and take on the most powerful enemy. meridor to me is everything, not just in terms of food bowl, but also never the aspect the man, the food bill or his health care of to i don't think we do that. i've been following any avenue west since the world cup. i'm not getting out of it. i ran away from it just to watch me play.

if it does it for this edition of the week, we'll be back to top the hour with another look, stay with us. this is art international. the foreign policy team of a potential biden ministration is being touted by the liberal media. we tell you why all this should be there's a lot of talk of a great reset,

build back better bode well for the future. we're segregated by social class, lower middle class people also in poverty of a 1st class. 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 younger than the you born into generational poverty. it's a tough fight every day. you meet your needs and the needs of your family.

and while the 2 worlds apart, most of us are now used to starting our days with the latest stats on didn't number of call that 9000 victims. without realizing that these speakers, as accurate as they may be in a mathematical sense, may also be misleading in an epidemiological sounds. does the current strategy of trying to slow down this spread of the pandemic? necessarily mean fewer lives lost overall? well, to discuss that, i'm now joined by david livermore, professor in medical microbiology at the university of east anglia professor. it's good to talk to you. thank you very much for your time. my pleasure. delighted to

be your a signatory of the great barrington declaration that has already amassed over 606 1000 signatures worldwide, and which calls for a last wholesale and more targeted approach to dealing with this indictment. so i assume you are clearly and happy with the current response, at least in the united kingdom. would you go as far as saying that the current strategy does more harm than good? yes, i would look at cynic, but people cost. we have feet u.k. chance that the exchequer today saying that we will have an 11 percent reduction in gross national product was domestic product. the biggest recession of 300 years, that destroys the tuc space. it destroys the amount of money that can be spent on future health care. people are dying.
