11:07 am
was. lax in the valley was attained last weekend on his arrival from germany for violating the terms of his parole it was done of reports now from the rally in central moscow. it is getting a little bit hectic because the police special forces have begun at least their initial attempts to clear out this square which has been completely packed for about an hour now so people have been trying to escape the security forces through this corner as well we managed to keep our vantage point but no we're not sure for how much longer we will be able to do that because there's a lot of people it's a huge crowd it's very very packed so it's difficult to let people through here and not be taken away with this a flood of protesters now it does feel like there's
11:08 am
a good few 1000 people here although i haven't seen any official of figures as of yet as to how many people have showed up here in the heart of the russian capital and now there has been some movement also i'd sit quite snowy here in moscow right now so people have been actually throwing snowballs at police officers as they were detaining people because that we have seen some detentions some scuffles fighting between the protesters and the police and people who were taken and well taken into custody now when it comes to the police response of rather staying with there's a constant message being played through a megaphone that is right over there calling on the people to disperse saying that it is this rally has not been authorized and also reminding people of the coronavirus situation here because obviously social distancing is not
11:09 am
a thing here and those even a police officer who was handing out masks at the very beginning of the protest have a lot of. fear. that he would be my. advice you know by through this it will ruin the group. yes. disappear. overnight. then so you could hear that some people saw a surgical mask as a symbol of oppression from the authorities also also when it comes to the amount of people and to how they have been behaving in general they have been chanting slogans like shame all 3 of them calling on the release of alexina valley
11:10 am
a prominent opposition figure here in russia also they've been calling for the resignation of the russian president vladimir putin which is a traditional traditional thing a traditional chant during protests like this some some protesters also climb to these street lights and you could put you on the show if you can but you could probably see that they left their banners that. well earlier hundreds to turn out for an unsanctioned rally to him bradley stalking russia's far east bringing the city center there to a standstill police used force to disperse the crowd detaining dozens of protesters some of those taking part to appear to have been school children well under the age of 18 russians on batsman for children has denounced what she described as opposition activists using youngsters as a human shield against the police similar scenes played out in the city. although on a much smaller scale with
11:11 am
a few 100 demonstrators taking part marches have been happening across the country but the main focus though in moscow none of them have been authorized and at a protest and personally asked the police to try to reason with some of the younger protesters are on the move. appears. referred to. the future there's. a few. of us here thanks for. your voice your good news for. almost late i know. we maul the russian foreign ministry has singled out the us for encouraging the protests but the spokeswoman raise the caliber highlighting how the american embassy and consulates in russia gave protesters instructions online. yesterday the u.s. embassy in moscow published roots of protests in russian cities and to an
11:12 am
information about a march on the kremlin but was it the instruction even the organizers did not announce such perhaps you can imagine what would happen if the russian embassy in washington d.c. published a map of protest through syndicating to you and point for example in the capital. journalist david bartlett who reported on the large opposition protests in moscow in 2019 says that today's policing hasn't been as intense as what she has witnessed in other countries. however i was surprised to see that protesters were convened in the square in pushkin square and chanting interior for a good hour and a half before the police took any measures to clear the square when they did that they did it in waves the approaching of forming a line and pushing the crowd back i did see baton sting used but i did not see the kind of excessive violence that i would see in protest for example in trance you know not only does have the backing of the west so i think that we will see more
11:13 am
protest in the usual attempts to paint scenes of chaos in russia paint scenes of you know mass dissatisfaction in the country one thing i noticed with the protests and 29000 and today there are a lot of young people on the one hand you could commend young people for being politically aware which is strange to me because at that age you don't really have a political awareness so it seems like children might be being used in these in this political game in order to paint to the western world. 3 muslim federations in france that refused to back president micron's and extremism charter he's been touting it as a way to fight radical islam we regret that this charter was signed before getting the approval of all components of the french council of the muslim faith we believe that some passages and wordings of the submitted text are of a nature that will weaken the ties of trust between the muslims of france and the
11:14 am
nation in addition some of the declarations infringe on the honor of muslims exhibiting an accusatory and marginalizing character. however a number of other muslim federations did sign up to the charter after intense and drawn at discussions and envisions a new national council responsible for vetting moms practicing in the country and rejects to polarize brands of islam and reaffirms equality between men and women business tara degree its ugly head again though in france just 3 months ago a teacher was beheaded for showing his class carting news of the prophet mohammed. on the park and patrick was the victim of an islamist terror attack.
11:15 am
took. place that islam is a religion that is in crisis today all over the world we don't just see it in our country. the will of the islamists is precisely to turn our citizens against the republic using their religion and we cannot let that happen. or the attack on time or pass a target a crackdown against extremist mosques and is necessary she ations we heard from fatty security he's the president of the paris space islamic confederation which is against charter and told us why. some of these look at that humans we disagree on a number of matters one being the group this child who was to be addressed to at the beginning it was about drafting a charter republican principles of the national council of so it was supposed to concern and mosques here we find ourselves with the charter of principles of islam in france and the failure to make the proper distinctions run many paragraphs
11:16 am
anyway asking muslims explicitly to clarify their position on subjects of this subject that they have respected for years and years but don't pose any problems for them as for the principles of the french republic the french people of the muslim face in this country and serenity and in respect of the values of the french republic that to gauge us all we do not have to ask them explicitly to measure their religious convictions to prove how respectful they are to the values and principles of the french republic it is certain that the ra and to muslim pacts we call that islamophobia we're not going to get into semantics we have a commission called fight against islamophobia so we call it that there isn't deeds and then chris and these acts especially in light of current events now i also don't want to say the result institutionalized islamophobia in france i really think that our country is doing its best to fight against and to muslim acts against islamophobia but that does not mean that these kinds of acts are not
11:17 am
increasing. has to lead here and yet the reality of breaks it is starting to sink into brits abroad after the break we hear from the british x. back you have these groceries things at the spanish border. i think this is a 3rd of ministration even though the show for going on 12 years anyway you know the big zaman $22026.00 team was d. dollars a should dig a little ization and now it's all coming to. i wouldn't quite see the support sort of the banning of trump per se i think long before we reached this point there should have been enough and there should have been a set of guidelines and rules. technology platforms followed around specific kinds
11:18 am
of cases by which people might be maybe even not the platforms into steps they're on the way to their view they are stealing information that is going viral that is obviously false and or hateful. by these algorithms that are influencing the visibility of content it is heat for and viral in those cases we need to interleave. again now a taste of things to come perhaps after britain recently left because of britain living in spain and working in the u.k. controlled enclave of gibraltar is that a shopping bag emptied by spanish border guards and was forced to leave behind much
11:19 am
of its contents at the border it is an individual case but it does highlight the change of rules for brits trying to enter the. usually you just walk straight. check it out call tobacco whatever. they showed them a bag and they they took the time to look a little bit more carefully than they normally day and they started back probably this night pulling everything out after checking a few items they basically just told me that the majority of this you can't take through because it has processed vegetables on it and saying that they were going to essentially just put them in the vent. where the conversation was in keeping with the travel guidelines it does behave it travelers from bringing made dairy products and process vegetables from nonmember state and among the things that the that got the brits into trouble was processed onions in a spicy source and try to make the best of a bad situation there with actually selling the prohibited products at a loss on line but that it's reasonable i had
11:20 am
a brief conversation with one of the guards in the in the office that made my point if i can take these items it seems to me that would be more like large quantities not snow items and there was no documentation to support a fact at least to my knowledge at the time that i can take these things over so. if this is already happening in the 1st week after breakfast then yeah really anticipate a few a few other issues. as it stands going forward i think at the moment we're still in there is actually having to negotiate an agreement with spain due to us being left out of the. g.'s my surroundings and some things i was going through the time for just moving around a lot i didn't get. a really wish i had had i voted as a set of really wish i had i would have stood with the 9097 percent of gibraltar that chose to remain because that i didn't really see any benefit whatsoever for us
11:21 am
to leave the european union. around has broken out after the ambassador to britain was denied full diplomatic status london insists though it's not obliged to treat representatives of international bodies the same as foreign diplomats working for nation states now unless london does change tack the new ambassador won't be able to get approval by the queen as head of a diplomatic mission eks decision is it all though with the way the blocks representatives are treated in most other countries and london's move doesn't sit well with brussels. we are not an if the national religion of the we have a union i think it really could be vice in my view too for the u.k. to find a clever solution for britain's foreign office has tried to smooth things over and says the representative will receive quote the privileges and immunities necessary to carry out their work in the u.k.
11:22 am
effectively however political commentator john from friday's belief that london's approach could actually backfire. i think this is a really absurd position that the british government has taken because after all we were members of the european union for nearly 50 years and brags that a part is not enough they now want to downgrade the status of the european union and although more than $150.00 countries around the world give full diplomatic privileges to. under the vienna convention and this is the situation that these landed dissin now with the government surrounded by cabinet ministers who support this nationalistic break city airline which is actually not to toe championing britain's global role as he would see it diminishing britain's role in the international stage if we want to have a good working relationship with the e.u.

27 neighbors who are our main trading partners taken as a whole we really need to have a much more. grown up attitude towards this. is threatening to put services out of a stray a half the country goes ahead with plans to force tech giants to help support news outlets by paying them royalties the principle of honor strict and linking between websites is fundamental to the search and coupled with the unmanageable financial and operational risk. if this version of the code word had become law it would give us no real choice but to stop making google search available in australia where the plan does get the go ahead from lawmakers that would oblige firms like google and facebook to pay a stray media outlets for linking to their content google and news organizations fail to agree on a price a special arbitration panel would be would be called to make a binding decision even though google dominates the strategies internet search
11:24 am
market the country's authorities say that they won't heald to threats. strive you makes their rules for things you can do in a strike that's done in their parliament it's done by a government. and that's how things work here in australia and people who want to work with that in australia you're very welcome but we don't respond to threats well political analysts the kind of america that says that we should expect similar run ins elsewhere because of the enormous amounts of power wielded by the world's biggest internet firms we've seen how powerful in the us elections these big companies are in a big way too powerful we don't realize sometimes that a company like google has represented 90 percent of the research search engine. today on the market day power 75 percent of the or mobile the mobile devices
11:25 am
60260000 searches are go through google every 72nd in the wall they are extremely powerful they influence people they can influence elections and . we've got to be careful because it be because of that and out of a lot of people are starting to wake up and understand how powerful these companies are and not only because they're making a lot of money but because they have an influence on society so i think there should be there will be more clashes and i hope that there are clashes because in any case whatever they're doing with this money they have to give back to the communities on which they're building their profits and that's just normal you can . talk about being a citizen company and advocating walk ideas a day in day out and then avoid paying taxes thanks to calls in the national office that's just something which is absurd i think this thieves do that not normal of competence that's how the world is looking so far today here not international thanks me company we're back again at the top of the.

i'm max kaiser this is the kaiser report although i think this is our 3rd administration we've been doing the show for going on 12 years anyway you know big statement 20202016 was d. dollars they dig lobel ization and now it's all coming to a head stays right we're going to talk about do you dollars ation it really started with when our guest jim rickards who you know has many books about currency wars and things like that and he was also an advisor to the cia on currency wars and obama under his administration i think it was in 2009 or 10 he weaponized the dollar openly and aggressively on the world stage which is swift he cut iran off in the swift system and at that time jim rickards had said to us well you know he
11:30 am
agreed with it because he doesn't like iran and he's an iranian a hawk on iran but he was like the problem for us as america is that you can really only use this wants because once you use it a 2nd time or 3rd time then people come up with alternatives so here is our closest ally of course is the e.u. e.u. draft sets out plans to limit u.s. dollar reliance a draft european commission policy paper highlights the european union's vulnerability to u.s. sanctions and to financial risks the paper highlights that you use vulnerability to u.s. sanctions and to financial risks as the bloc looks to assert its independence both economically and financially i mean whether or not they. this at this time has teeth you know the fact is over the past few years we've seen led by germany that it is it is building up this notion that the e.u. needs to have a.
