yes to shape our disdain comes out to. and in detroit equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. millions of users and even global leaders flock to privacy centric messaging apps like the telegram i made concerns over data sharing that as facebook and twitter are hit by scandals over censorship. the us media suggestions that donald trump supporters are cold who needs deprogramming like extremists. disappear in our war if there are or 34000000 people that are agree with america. and the shift in facts in advice in norway is 13 people die after receiving defies the job

but the country's drugs agency says it's not a lot. of very warm welcome it's 10 pm here in moscow and you're watching r.t. international with mina karen what is being called the largest digital migration in history millions of users are abandoning wants out though the new terms which would mean users sharing more of their data with parent company facebook even global leaders are making the switch to more privacy centric rivals such as telegram looking at the trend is dimitri poke. moving to greener pastures has been one of the key drivers of humanity's survival but if in the past people fled from war dictators and natural disasters today we're witnessing a very 21st century style of mass migration the already massive influx of new users to telegram has only accelerated we may be witnessing the largest digital migration

in human history millions have recently chosen to ditch the old new media as messengers and move to even newer ones like telegram or signal and there are 2 big bug bears behind the exodus privacy is the big one whatsapp snooty and see we'll see who is this little footprint shared more with parent firm facebook and who wants to open up even more of the world's most notorious data harvester 2nd as censorship triggers to recent purge of donald trump and his supporters has laid bare the capacity of the internet's gatekeepers to silence anyone they deem to be dangerous that's got other world leaders spooked a spec the chancellor considers a problematic with the accounts of the us presidents have now been permanently blocked i don't like anybody being censored it's taking away the right to post a message on twitter facebook i don't agree with that i don't accept that 10 world leaders including the presidents of circ and brazil have already made the switch to

telegram much to the appreciation of the firm's founder we are honored that political leaders as well as numerous public organizations rely on telegram to combat misinformation and spread awareness about important issues in their societies unlike other networks telegram doesn't use opaque algorithms to decide whether a subscriber will see content they subscribe to or not as a result telegram channels are the only direct way for opinion leaders to reliably connect with their audiences the internet has represented freedom since its inception it's supposed to be a place where you can read what you want say what you want but arbitrary says. the ship and the big platforms we know which you want better than you do approach is the last straw for many not that titans are prepared to lose business to the competitors declaring the alternatives nothing short of a threat to society before stamping them out we have always supported diverse points of view being represented on the apps too but there is no place in our

platform for threats of violence and illegal activity we cannot provide services to a customer that is unable to effectively identify and remove content that encourages our incites violence against others parlor one of the biggest alternative social networks was wiped off line in a matter of days following the capitol riots and now even telegram is facing accusations of being a haven for conspiracy theorists and far right extremists and that's despite the fact that the company recently removed dozens of groups containing calls to violence but while big texts and to take out competitors might occasionally yield success it doesn't change the fact that social media space is evolving and fast and for many free speech will be the deciding factor in choosing a platform turkey's envoy to the czech republic is one of many politicians switching to the online messaging app telegram he told us people have become very wary of the traditional tech giants i think in the long run facebook what's out

there. by the same corporate decision makers have to revise the rules because they have. you know wait scared people know that there are already a lot of the. cases against them for misusing information and there are a lot of court cases but now they're making it public so in no way the secret is now coming out that the information is in use and they are actually getting your consent for it and and they have double standards if you are a what's yours are in germany you have a different conditions but if you are in russia or if you are in turkey if you are and azerbaijan if you are incorrect is that you are entitled to different rules this is not fair we now live in a global village and these kind of forms connect all of us so technology should not be discriminative technology and communication should be

embracing everyone and i think these policies are going to make people feel that they have been isolated and they have been discriminated against. mainstream media have stepped up their attacks on all those who voted for donald trump there are calls to deprogram his supporters and some have even made comparisons with terrorists there are millions of americans i'm also worried almost all the republicans. somehow need to be deprogrammed they are members of a cult with trump it's cold there are republican members of congress i know who clearly have lost their minds who just will not accept reality when it comes to the facts about donald trump i'm comparing the words of individual who would incite them radicalize somebody as osama bin laden did to what president trump did but trans the ports are questioning the mainstream media selves and say their piece and

opinions should be heard. and. we don't like hear opinions on the brain or this don't agree with people harboring. washed by the media it to divide people that ever way you can beat this thing setting down the. freedom of speech is an american people who voted for trump wanted to change it it cannot wipe out a whole 75000000 people that don't agree with you you can vote. for whoever you want to you should be afraid of having people come back we all need to come together. night. hard to get that they have identified from supporters as so dangerous in groups that they have to be prevented from forming in groups for the safety of the american people there's no there's no comparable message coming from the right about the left nothing from the right that would

destroy the unity that we all should have and probably wish we did have that unity in america is long gone because the people calling for the loudest are the same people who think we should go to jail and we should have our guns taken from a sex and we are the side that is not violent while they let their side who is violent rampage around the country for almost a full year they have absolutely spoken out of both sides of their mouths on this on the left and there's going to be a political price to pay for that. health officials in no way are adjusting that covert vaccination advice off the deaths of 13 elderly people possibly from side effects off the bank even a dose of the fine as a vaccine all those who died at what kept home residents age 70 of 80. it seems that some of these patients get such severe side effects in the form of fever and malays that it can make a very serious illness even more serious which may lead to death norway launched

its covert immunization program with the find the vaccine in late december and on friday rolled out the mcgurn of vaccine to nursing home residents are on the priority list with since then 29 people have been reported to have suffered side effects after getting the pfizer jab but the norwegian drugs regulators there's it's not alarmed by the numbers saying the risks the low except among the most frail of patients and people with underlying health issues the medical and science experts we spoke to agree that vaccine benefits outweigh the risks but that caution is needed for the most vulnerable. if the authorities in norway believe that there may be a problem that it's right to be cautious that vaccine should only ever really be given to people who would fit well in any case if somebody who's seriously well or frail they really got me to think about giving them a back seat i think 5 is a back seat is one of the terms of its effectiveness initially at least

seems to be one of the best roxy on the market but how long will it last for remains to be seed but it is a good vaccine there is nothing wrong with it i don't think it's nothing to worry about i think i think that the scientists and the medical community in norway as well as the world community should look at those depths and see if there's something that they had in common there is a concern but i think at this point there and so many people have gotten this vaccine and not had a major problem i still haven't seen any. legitimate evidence that this vaccination and the risk of the vaccination outweighs the benefits at this point in. the dutch government has resigned as a scandal which saw thousands of innocent families torn apart after being wrongfully accused of child benefit fraud fee is as human error is so heavy handed

tax officials plunge households into ruin by forcing them to hand back welfare payments atienza shoddy penske is across friday's developments. it is already offered his resignation it to the king in the netherlands and that report said that it was both the government that he presided over at this time but also the previous rejected ministration that we're all partly responsible for want happened now this all began back in 2012 when parents were regarded as. tax authorities and this was because they had sometimes just incorrectly filled out documents so when one part of the report that said some people missed signatures on those reports now strangely enough was families that had dual nationality it seemed to be well guarded with particular suspicion at just because that fact at one point presenting about $600.00 of the family says that this was ethnic profiling now the norm was

being implemented it was said in court with an eye cool meaning they were looking up 6 people while the individual circumstances family's loss that they are allowing sometimes with no reason given to them and other families who do already received benefits for being hounded then for the money to be paid back thousands and thousands of families impacted as we mentioned but the toll for many of these posts that this false accusation demands from claims essentially just too much the enormous strain was one of the reasons i got divorced the tax office is very powerful without going to judge they dry you out they came to my house and took my refrigerator they took away my car they took 40 percent of my salary under the pressure of an overheated political need to fight fraud parents were falsely branded as willful prods terse the victims were powerless against powerful institutions of the rule of law and did not receive the protection they deserved

well marketing has said the buck essentially stops we've his current administration but he's not only made me a gay take m.p. until i pass a new code. listen just for you if i can we have been before those elections in march but he's also going to remain in party's leader despite the fact that he says that he is part of shaping the only fish this scandal that some already questioning how the party just like we don't reside at this scandal can remain in the jungle rightly so the good minute resigns innocent people have been criminalized their lives destroyed and the house has been incorrectly and completely informed about this but it's some believe bill those responsible gun senior have been party leaders well margaret just says he will be staying on and that can take a capacity in order mainly to maintain the situation surrounding $1000.00 pandemic we felt the need to step down because of the extreme seriousness of the report by

the bottom of the committee which has just started and thorley and in-depth what happened and we came to the conclusion that it's an affordable debt we stepped down and at the same time there to be are still capable we think with full support of parliament we respectfully ask for support requests for the support him we think we will get it of course within the parameters of all the debates and discussions we will have respondent to be effective in fighting to come across it well he's an immediate response ability any did seem contrite in that press conference all friday afternoon and so far his party still is polling high ahead of elections in march but it is yet to be seen how this scandal crucially light impacts that. has been a show of military might from north korea a massive parades being held in the capital to mark the end of the ruling party

convention where as if marching soldiers were on display as well as arms including a new submarine launched ballistic missiles north korean media called them the world's most powerful weapons that they were. western experts are still divided on how much of a threat to they could pose. to land on the race to replace the head of germany's ruling policy and potentially become the next chancellor well look at the key names after the break.

join me every thursday on the daleks cybermen short and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. if.

it. was going back germany's ruling party is due to elect its new leader this weekend the winner in the description democrats ballot is likely to become the next chancellor when angela merkel's term expires in october piece all of our breaks down the candidates. the c.d.u. party the christian democratic union will elect a new leader this weekend it will see who should be the next contender to be the chancellor of germany who will replace angle americal when she steps down she confirmed again during her new year's address that she would not be running for the chancellorship in september's vote we had heard from her 1st way back in 2018 saying she wasn't going to stand again this 4th term is my last as german chancellor at the 2021 problem and a real action i will not put forward my candidacy for the chancellor she began so who's in the running to replace a well be leader of the state of north rhine-westphalia english shot at 59 years

old he's a real big ally of angular merkel very much seen as the continuity counted it then there's friedrich minutes at 65 the oldest in the running he is a multi-millionaire corporate lawyer a long term rival of. there's no but to get 55 the youngest in the race he is currently the chairman of the foreign affairs committee and certainly knows his way around the bundestag he's been a member of the parliament since the 1994 let's have a listen to what all of the candidates had to say ahead of this weekend's conference i stand for everyone and i think that those who did not vote for me if i am elected will also be able to live with me and accept me do we want to continue to play in a regional leak every country for itself or do we want to play champions league to play a role in the world. you meet what i bring is government experience the ship of big

federal state balancing different interests and perhaps this doesn't hurt to you wouldn't have already won the election however whoever wins the c.d.u. leadership may not end up standing for chancellor what we're. seeing is what's being called a shadow campaign ran to push forward the leader of the state of bavaria the leader of the christian democratic union sister party the christian social union marcus zone then this health minister yen spawn is being touted as a potential outside bet to run as chancellor what we will know is who will lead the c.d.u. party over this weekend we may well have to wait until around the beginning of march to find out exactly who will be the content from that party from the c.d.u. c.s.u. group to stand as the replacement for angle merkel. russia has

confirmed it's now pulling out of a multinational treaty which allows our land surveillance flights over other countries the united states walked away from the deal last november with the reasons and ramifications his ailing for trying. what almost 2 months ago washington said they are getting out that they are no longer part of the open skies treaty because of how as they were putting it russia was not playing by the rules of the game by the way moscow said that all these allegations were nonsense the russian government had several ways to respond to it the 1st one the least likely option was to ignore washington's exit altogether the 2nd option was to do the same to say goodbye to the open skies treaty and the 3rd option was to try and save the greenman through negotiations to try and save it by proposing some new terms or maybe by trying to negotiate a new agreement all together well the russian diplomats were saying that initially

they'd try to go for the 3rd option but didn't get anything in response from washington and that was when they realized that there was nothing else for the russian government to do but to leave the green mint even though russia regrets it last month the russian president vladimir putin reminded of how other core international security agreements were collapsing in a similar manner and weren't that the story could repeat itself and that's what we're seeing right now. our american colleagues left the i.n.f. treaty again not as you know it's our partners then they withdrew from the open skies treaty so what should we do you leave everything as it is in your small people so why do you think we are dumb. the 2 decades old open skies treaty allowed on armed surveillance flights in the airspace of its signatories which contributed

to global transparency in trust besides russia and the us there were 33 members of the greenland which brings us to the main concern that was expressed by the russian government among the. 33 signatories there are quite a few american allies from the nato and then flushing planes could no longer fly across the atlantic to do their job when it comes to surveillance what if u.s. european allies can still do the same in russia and then share their intelligence with washington the question that was being asked in the kremlin whether that is fair and whether that is the way to go so the russian government decided that the answer to this question is no and that's why they're leaving after several attempts to try and rescue the deal like i told you earlier. a trip to the circus usually guarantees some high flying acrobats on that base if slapstick from the clowns but

one russian big top is in big trouble for bringing on the monkeys in nazi uniforms and go to straight to school stick a flanks they on the moves were led to rounds the ring by hand less insult the it on the uniforms in a performance commissioned by the russian orthodox church the problem is that russian will footbeds the public display of nazi symbols prosecutes the now investigating the church has to try and get the show insisting it's about the victory over fascism and this burning of nazi ideology. to get in touch and that is what you think about this story and everything else that by following us on social media join us again at the top of the hour.

the world is driven by dream shaped by one person. no dares thinks. we dare to ask. nuclear power become a battleground in the us in vermont people are demanding the shut down of a local plant from my yankee is right now my focus because it's a very dangerous oh no care power plant the owner is attempting to run the reactor beyond its operational limit this case just sort of puts a magnifying glass on where's the power in this country where's it going is it

moving more towards corporate interests or is it more in the idea of a traditional participatory democracy is power live with the people this case demonstrates that struggle in very real ways our struggle. i got this 8 millimeter film purely by accident. time period 963 to 65 place damascus. i was old don't know why young. i've watched it many times a man posing the monuments and all poster of the hollywood premiere of town without pity and a fight in a market so without bruises. i had my doubts if i should waste my time on this

but i came back to that film over and over again tracing a sequence of events happening in syria at the time and most of those who worked there the wood on. the ground in which you see neal curiosity is like a petrol motion machine it lives on without a lunch break and then suddenly i saw him stop let's take another look now at low speed this is key like owing a super spy who some consider a national hero and others and the evil villain an israeli double 07. because it's but it's them and they at the. at the one you're still.

reading doesn't sell you. would be intrigued and investigations into what exactly happened on january 6th when the make america great again turned into let's take over the capitol building well those investigations are only just beginning following the. u.s. house of representatives vote to impeach president donald trump for his upwards to move the crowd to that day many are now wondering who who will be next in line to face the consequences for their actions both before and on that tragic day and one congresswoman at the forefront to beas up or this is the democrat out of new jersey u.s. house representative mickey cheryl who this week made some startling accusations of congressional complicity in the planning of the attack take a listen. is there's a congress i mean through the capitol when i signed the race. or expenses in the

state as numbers. this. is numbers this. was engineered. and is necessarily. a shooting at certain. moves she is not holding back so according to representative circles some of our elected leaders in congress who they appear to be wolves in sheep's clothing my friend and speaking of wolves in sheep's clothing the president elect joe biden announced that this week samantha power yes the former u.n. ambassador under president obama will be tapped to run the u.s. agency for international development or usaid because my friends if there was anyone anyone who can run an agency that mark was brought to the center for economic and policy research codes acts more like an agency involved in covert

action like the cia than as an aid or development agency it's our good friends the man the power who goes to baseball games and takes home awards from war criminals like and rica's injure. and you thought elam was bad so it was like a good day to start watching the hogs. if you want to know what's going on in a city. you want to. see this joyce. graves see this least systemic deception. which. brings up as. well going to watching the hawks i robot and i'm so please a look at this i mean this is this is for and this is one of those really packed exciting news weeks for a disc of stories coming from all different angles let's start i want to ask you. representative cheryl. we saw these people bring in large groups through the

capitol on tuesday on the monday before the day before the 6th of the 5th you know she's pulling no punches she's basically saying we need to investigate these people to see if they were there scouting out what what was to happen the following day i applaud her for having the courage to actually speak out on this because she definitely wasn't the only only congressperson to see these large groups of people that were touring the capitol even though tours had been canceled since march of last year due to kobe 19 there are a lot of questions to be had there especially considering the insurrection that happened the very next day and a point we made on the show previously that a lot of these individuals knew exactly how to map out where to go that's something that most people who worked on capitol hill for years can you believe you are navigate the area so i think there's something to be said about these groups being able to walk in the day before and basically figure out where certain office space is and things work well we've seen video now of people leaving like i'm you know a bore directing me you know through windows and all that and sheldon may many of

the republicans like she hasn't come out and so this person brought in people that .
