in france tensions are high over a new police security bill after 2 years of violent clashes with officers on the street. the wrong to avenge the murder of a top nuclear scientists don't puts the blame on israel we discuss possible motives and consequences with our guests. i think it was an order to provoke iran to respond that could then be used as a pretext for a strike on iran is condemnation is going to go anywhere it must go to the to the iranian regime that celebrates of this month is not nuclear weapons it is a provocation. and one of the most shocking lockdown violations in the pond that make a top brussels i may pay for an anti l.g.b.

tea party quits after being caught trying to flee what's described as a male orgy being raided by police. and india sees one of the biggest national strikes in history has 250000000 people come out to protest free markets measure. very warm welcome from our team here and most go you're watching the international meeting karen. in france tensions are high over a new security bill that could criminalize filming of the police officer is already in the spotlight have a widespread accusations of brutality with critics warning far more significant changes are needed to structural and deep rooted problems with the force schaller dubinsky reports. it's the burning issue in france right now how to improve

protection for the police while also safeguarding the public from police brutality . amid a wave of anger over plans to criminalize the publication of images of the police if there was intent to harm the government has backed down the ruling party and sent the much profiled article $24.00 would be entirely rewritten hours later the interior minister outlined his plans for reform. what is my deep conviction and what the government thinks is that we absolutely have to keep the protection of

police forces during their police actions i repeat they are not protected enough more training more leaders and more police and the generalized use of police body cameras these would he said tackle the root cause of the problem meanwhile the french police chief admitted that there are some issues but he defended the owner of his offices. the police are not violent and are not racist in saying this to you i'm not in denial and i am not waffling i tell you what i see and what i hear every day i see the police officers or flexion of the good side of our society but for many all not enough accusations of police violence of tarnish the name of the force these were brought into sharp focus over the past week as shocking examples.

i tried to call my lawyer i tried to call a lot of people even a neighbor heard my screams he wanted to call the police but it was the police. over. then as protests turned over the weekend did emerge that one journalist was caught in the fray injured by a police baton as he attempted to cover the demonstrations. an award winning photographer was clearly identifiable as a journalist was shocked by the injuries suffered by a colleague. and condemned the unprovoked violence the injuries were sustained

exercised his legal rights as a photojournalist documenting protests on the streets of paris i did now questions have been raised about the police role in the death of an 80 year old in mass a back during the yellow vests rallies. zelig was hit by tear gas canister in 20000 while in her apartment originally an expert report submitted as part of the investigation concluded that the officer fired the grenade had done so properly and she'd been hit accidentally that's now being questioned following an independent investigation it claims the officer launched the corner too low an angle and too close to her building and it was therefore an illegal shot a lawyer for the victim's family asserts that it was a deliberate act we believe the police officer fired tear gas grenades because he

misread a one who was on the phone using its loudspeaker was filming the police violence that took place. rewriting also called $24.00 is unlikely to be the end of the story the recalls. the entire global security bill to be scrapped passions are high not just over press freedom and the ability of citizens to film police officers but also the deep rooted problem of police violence issues that simply cannot be whitewashed ski r.t. paris. iran's parliament has passed a bill to raise the stakes on nuclear development on less western countries ease sanctions and i worked in the government to suspend the un nuclear inspections and boost iranian men which meant above the level was agreed with international powers but the country's president has the right hardly criticized the bill calling it bad for diplomacy

a final decision on the issue rests with iran's supreme national security council the bill passed amid uproar in the country over the killing of the wrongs top nuclear scientist to iran is blaming israel. the israeli government is the primary suspect in this nation and there are serious evidence has been provided the situation is that from now on we will follow the same path and we will seek to create legal responsibility for it iran as has been said and it is our firm policy will respond to both the perpetrators and the commanders it will be proportionate independent and god willing with maximum pain for those who have done it. israel's government is still refusing to comment on the issue my colleague southgate teller discussed the escalation possible motives and outcomes with our guests. i think it was done in order to provoke iran into a response could then be used as a pretext for a strike on iran and i think this was designed to get the iranians to to take some

response with it which would then justify an attack on iran is what appeared to be the closing days of the trump administration concerns that this attack could provoke iran to divide up the weapons what's your comment on that 1st of all there's no evidence that iran ever attempted to produce nuclear weapons iran which has the most advanced military technology in the region and we've seen that how it has been used against the american base. if iran which has that technological capability if they wanted to produce a nuclear weapon they would have done so years ago the issue is not nuclear weapons it is a provocation just as your previous guest rightly pointed out the israeli regime is looking for a provocation to bring about war in this region because for them it is it's not the interest of the united states or europe or of the region it is their own interests

let's look at who factories are there was he was a weapons specialist a nuclear weapon specialist now a school that doesn't have a soccer team doesn't hire a soccer coach and a regime that isn't seeking to carry out nuclear attacks doesn't hire nuclear weapons specialists and really you know if condemnation is going to go anywhere it must go to the to the the iranian regime that celebrated this man that carried him around in government motorcade gave him a state funeral condemnation and again i have no idea who was involved the condemnation does not deserve to go to the people that remove this man from a very problematic situation condemnation only goes to the iranian regime who continue to oppress their people and continue to seek the execution of another iranian protesters were calling on a war with america over the killing impact. in january of course we thought that the 2 countries came very close. to a confrontation over the model of general sort of maney my question is is this time

different and how it was for the purpose of the triggering an american attack on iran one trouble dr brende for the presidency 2016 he promised an america 1st foreign policy we didn't get we got an israel saudi arabia 1st policy it's interesting to me that even the saudis in iraq don't seem to be going along with the script on this one so we could end up with a situation where the americans really don't feel they have the regional support they would only have the cover of israel to launch an attack on iran so i'm hoping war will not come under no matter what the iranian response turns out to be. britain's become the 1st western country to license a vaccine against code of it health secretary much time coke tweeted that the job has been approved by the national regulator hope is on its way the m.h.r. a has formed through as the fires of biotech faxon for code 19 the n.h.s.

parliament member has quit after brussels police caught him trying to avoid capture what's being described as a sex orgy office is rated worth being called what's being called a gay party held above a gay bar which has surprised many is that hugo jeffs was part of an anti l g b t coalition it was attended by some 20 people including european diplomats shy guy who had been chief whip of the european peoples party was caught carrying drugs as he fled through a window and shimmied it down a drain pipe when police broke in a passer by reported to the police that he had seen a man fleeing along the gutter he was able to identify the man the man hands were bloody it is possible that he may have been injured while slain there were found in his backpack and his resignation letter admitted his behavior was irresponsible he apologized for breaching lockdown rules but claims the drugs in his backpack had been planted from any pay david cope and ses the whole incident sets

a terrible example. it's not setting a good example to the people in a time of the american show me going to have a good laugh about it you know the hypocrisy of it all but it is serious and as much as that people don't want to be set an example like that it's all just a goal if there are politicians are having a tremendous coffee while the rest of us i am are having to isolate i mean to look at my hair how to lie and whose baby i never had hail as long as i was a student i haven't seen obama in months so you know i try to be in the rules and set an example as opposed to little bit away and by you know i think it's better people obey the rules overseas best not to to do the opposite to what you're you're selling to the public. you're watching on t.v. international still to come that we'll hear about even climate restrictions or christmas cause another spike in infection after and will after the break.

when things become more extreme which leads to right when this is like breaking norms not necessarily in a good way maybe some smarty dream diary those the fictional task by reading writing isn't as the stream is like a reality it. 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. or a made in the shallowness. welcome back one of india's biggest strikes in history has seen 250000000 people come out against a new farming law that they warn will devastate their livelihoods and the capital new delhi demonstrators clashed with police who find tear gas and water cannon and used by tongs to force back protesters.

i. september's loss crap to minimum prices for crops and opened the door for corporations to negotiate prices directly with the farmers in addition private companies can now stockpile staple crops which could previously only be done by the government of prime minister narendra modi who insists the new rules will benefit farm with allowing them to attract investments and choose from a large number of potential buyers and he's accused opponents of deliberately spreading falsehoods. we're seeing the same old misinformation against these historic agriculture reforms is coming from the same people who have

constantly misled the farmers for decades we're working with pure intentions and without any purpose of betraying anyone. a new delhi based journalist and political commentator says the moves have simply not been thought through. through these 3 laws that the government has a problem if it split couple 100 in parliament it is going to replace the middleman with far more powerful corporate entities there will be greater role. in deciding everything to do with chasing and the seed love to reproduce and then that only means you are reinforcing the mafia the privately is the invisible hand that is going to be far more powerful no less consider it of the farmers interests. with less than a month to go to christmas the e.u.

states are responding to mass anti lock down outraged by easing restrictions but leaders fear the plans festive gatherings could spark a fresh wave of covert 19 outbreaks our europe correspondent peter oliver has the story. european leaders are facing a balancing act between keeping covert restrictions in place to stop the spread of the virus and allowing families to be together over the festive period there's also a need to try in the piece some of those that have been out on the streets of european cities angry and fed up with the current restrictions. the problem is ease restrictions for christmas and new year you may well get

a spike in the virus in january here in germany chancellor angela merkel has reluctantly agreed to ease restrictions on the number of people that are allowed to gather together that's been raised to 10 not including children in that number between the 23rd of december and the 1st of january but she has said that there is a personal responsibility on people to try and keep covert safe people in winter are worst equipped against the virus and then in the sound that because we spend much more time in such close spaces the situation becomes more difficult we just have to get through this winter months and we hope people get vaccinated in the czech republic they've got a bit further than germany and they'll be opening some shops that have being closed albeit with extra carona measures in place when it comes to religious services there's also a split across europe in italy and in ireland there will be socially distanced

masses taking place while in germany and iceland they're going for the virtual auction we recorded shoot services that we broadcast online and have also created virtual confirmation classes my sumo try to. do something outside the church on christmas eve such as a coup or performance service the e.u. might get a glimpse of tension what could be coming down the pike by looking across the atlantic to the united states last week's thanksgiving celebration saw people travel across the country and get together with families who are looking to see if that produces an uptick in the number of corona infections but while restrictions that have been in place across europe of seeing numbers either drop off or level out here the question is is it justified to ease these restrictions for a few days of christmas cheer. you are new york's governor has been ridiculed for comparing kobe did to the grinch and son on social media think the better candidate
