the safety of police families after photos of numerous officers were plastered on what was in paris suburbs amid a spike in tension between the public and law enforcement and any politician is a key peddling fake news after he questions the transparency investigation into a chemical attack in syria we hear me any. of those issues were. sure that they're going to shoot would be approved to have a very. well i welcome you watching r.t. international this saturday afternoon just on 2 o'clock. afghan interpreters who put their lives on the line and helped western forces in afghanistan fear that they could be abandoned and left to the mercy of taliban terrorists that as u.s.

and nato troops prepare to exit the country by mid september a former afghan translator who works for the british army told us why they are so concerned. if there isn't an office full recognition by the government so far. the process off treatment often captors or not very much at the top priority of the ministry of defense i think minister of defense and the u.k. government as a whole are forgetting that interpreters were key assets off the. 18 year long combat under military mission in afghanistan and leaving them behind and forgetting them is putting them at risk well over the years the u.k. has allowed hundreds of interpreters who work for the british army to settle in britain although critics to say that many who want to be eligible for the scheme being denied that chance the u.s.

president joe biden didn't answer the draw of american and nato troops a couple of days ago and translators who helped them defeat it they will now become targets of the taliban he branded them traitors and legitimate targets 0 i mean again says that many interpreters have been left traumatized. i am regularly in touch with afghan interpreters who are searched for the british army and they are still stuck in afghanistan and they are not aware of their future they are living in trauma and fare every day not knowing what could happen tomorrow or next the to them so the situation is very risky for and with us in afghanistan unless the british government acts quickly and introduces an inclusive scheme that allows all interpreters to relocate to the u.k. the situation will not be resolved are part of the international. missions object of in afghanistan was to secure europe and american borders from the threat

7:05 am
louis we've also seen officers being maimed in other areas it's scary enough that we no longer have boundaries and there are people who name officers families without hesitation and it seems to me that matthew like behavior and intimidation is encroaching into our private lives because with the police. the incident does come as french rule makers pass a controversial security bill payne allies in the spread of images of police officers in operation there is found guilty could face a sentence of up to 5 years in prison and a 75000 euro fine the bill has been slandered by civil rights groups and n.g.o.s and the french public has been protesting against it for months wow was. was. was a hero
7:06 am
. was. however french police still insist the law is needed to protect officers and their families. thank you. we try to protect ourselves but it's true there are limits the police have to protect the general population but who defends the police article 24 some things are progressing well but it's not enough we are now waiting for the restrictions to be introduced to soon as possible the alliance police union are demanding that the faces of police officers blurred it's not to hide what happens during the arrest because the i.g.p. n police watchdog receives the body count footage everyone is worried about the police making a mistake we want the police to have their faces blurred to protect officers and
7:07 am
their families because as we've seen some people don't hesitate to identify officers wives children their addresses and this is a big problem but we want to avoid. now recently parliamentary session got rather heated when a member was accused of spreading fake news that after he questioned the transparency of the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons why would you not heed cause from. international figures to meet with all the investigators are you going to investigate all aspects in a transparent manner clickable seem what are the. begin by saying what i feel i have to say after what i have just heard there is no peace with fake news and i would like to apologize to the director general of the o.p.c. w for what he has just heard i cannot accept that you can call into question the work of an international organization is there no freedom of speech be lowered in the european parliament any more we never know you don't have the floor mr wallace
7:08 am
the subcommittee should keep it on. you know p.t.w. has been looking into allegations of chemical weapons used in syria's civil war and the keys president bashar assad of deploying talks sins against his own people on several occasions something like syria the nice one of the most prominent cases which multiple attacks have been raised was in 2018 in doing that. but we got some reaction from the m.e.p. involved there mike wallace and he does say it was a convenient way to try and silence him. use is
7:09 am
a very popular term. in europe and the u.s. . uses almost like you know like the side as i said the president said back to me we should be careful because star wars 2 well she's dead right used to start wars when did this attack took place. it was used at the time by the u.s. france and the u.k. to illegally bomb syria so that was new rules causing war. what the 1st likely stated was a quarter to either side it's said or simply started by and i didn't peacefully started by troops we want to troops and we want peace. meanwhile a panel of experts convened back in 2990 rejected that the chlorine cylinders used to deliver the toxic gas into human had been dropped from the air this had been a key argument in laying the blame for the attack on the syrian army based on
7:10 am
whistleblower data the panel decided the p.c. debris report on the dreamer attack relied on false premises mr deliberate massaged to lead it to a biased conclusion mike wallace again thinks that if the a.b.c. w. had nothing to hide it wouldn't have turned a blind eye to the whistle blows revelations about the duma file your p.c. don't them can be viking international law lose issues that can hurt. the demise of the use of chemical weapons or death o.p.c. don't you has to present better and right now it looks like to do the right the director general of the office it all with little or no notice it looks like. there is a if earned under our ears are really dry and if they have been here well and they have and this whole episode well they have nothing to fear nor are those asian who
7:11 am
has nothing to hide and is sure that they are telling the truth would be afraid to have to investigate if they refused to have a transparent investigation into this whole matter it actually emphasize story guilt. now the mineral water brand evian has made a splash for all the wrong reasons though it's being accused of islamophobia over a tweet encouraging people to drink more water explaining more his charlotte. do you really me this is perhaps nothing more than a little. something to quench your thirst with the ground everyone has found itself in some very hopeful to hear influence being accused of everything is a little a phobia to being a victim of intellectual terrorism and it started with a treat seems innocent enough rowing to retreat if you handily to
7:12 am
a group i don't necessarily even say water i mean you are supposed to drink 2 meters a day but new mr mind of a staple for human life was put on the 1st day of ramadan a festival with muslims for eating and drinking during daylight hours the reaction king week unfolds sed. i have to explain to my mother how it is normal for everyone to tweet about water even during ramadan because she thinks they are islamophobia you know it's ramadan you're abusing if you issued an apology to coors in the offense and said that the purest most common disease but not any so if even sinking even deeper into culture lucy. i would never buy evian again inadmissible to apologize it's basically a cool health message and yet you have to apologize if in 2021 ask you who drinks what i since provoke you should have a consultation. every umbrella under touch for advertising water on ramadan day for
7:13 am
some islamists muslim festival should be imposed on everyone well no let's stop this madness soon was ending. is a long way off through here in paris people but the field boy that allegation. for me no i saw the controversy i saw the to eat frankly i think it could be quincy adams in my opinion there was no bad intention and they deleted the tweet to avoid unnecessary control the city but not at all because they felt guilty. for me it's not a slam a for b. i don't understand it like that for me would denigrate a strong one who say look at her she's still veiled from me that islamophobia. when i'm doing my ramadan i know where start in the morning and it goes on until the evening i don't eat i don't drink it has nothing to do with business or anyone else if someone tweets like this i don't care how many muslims also took to twitter
7:14 am
to say that they didn't think that tweet by everyone is a little bit leading so to question that with any muslim or indeed being left insulted by evian or if somehow this whole story was the result of a when. they were playing it rather see so what do you see paris. soyuz spacecraft with 3 members on board has touched down on earth after 6 months in orbit at the international space station the expedition consisted of 2 russians and an american what he can see nasa is kate rubin's being helped out of the capture and side. but as you can of and also. offer and once they have had their medical say are expected to fly back home now they were replaced on the i assessed by a special mission that blasted off as part of the 60th anniversary celebrations a few days ago of the 1st human space flight soon the space station we're all
7:15 am
together another crew 2 for fly there on board the american space x. rocket. still to come here this hour joe biden's infrastructure package has received relatively little support so far with part of the problem being apparently that not everybody is sure what the plan is actually a bagful we'll do our best to take a look just at. the world is driven by shaped by one person.
7:16 am
no dairy thinks. we dare to ask. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy going from to let it be an arms race is often spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. welcome back and i police in the u.k. of smash their way into the home of a man who broke the country's strict quarantine rules off returning from abroad
7:17 am
matthew i was refused to isolate a hotel stop to traveling through a so-called red to this country following video shows the police right and his arrest. did exactly what you were doing that for 3 can't prove it and i feel a change if they want the job and seeing it a designated how when instructed to do you senator. well the man flew back from bahrain and transferred through abu dhabi in frankfurt before finally flying into manchester darby is in the united arab emirates which is on the u.k.'s red list and that does mean that people returning from there to have to quarantine for 10 days in a designated hotel on arrival and pay almost 2000 pounds for the pleasure although mr owens told r.t. the conditions there are not as safe as you might think you're treated like. an animal almost you get your meals delivered every day when the not on the door and then they just leave your food on the floor for you to open the door and just
7:18 am
be you know pick you food off the floor the big thing for me is the big cautions to aren't you know extreme measures were put in place to detain me in the video and bring me here so what they expect that to be matched by age seem precautions taken and the not. for the stuff that i've got the contract for this for these cars the hotels the only p.p. the where is a must have got pictures of some of them not even when the droplets open if the note and i've even got pictures of ones i haven't even got over the mouth when miss rose claims that he did contact u.k. officials consulted with airport staff was told that the should be no problem on his arrival despite that though after spending several days at home self isolating he was forcibly transferred to the closest quarantine hotel in birmingham he told us that technically he never set foot in a red list country. in my kitchen bits of literally 14 rbs r.p.m. still an international grounds i haven't gained immigration of literally just been
7:19 am
transferred through on top of everyone's got to produce a negative test to be a not it or no one could just walk into an airport you've got to go for the picture because even in front of it i have to produce my boarding pass and my passions are located to form which i'll be actually doing the whole call the consulate and go through the correct procedure to try and get the bush record of the risk device but ultimately i was told anyway i'm on just the advice or not the onus is on the trouble and so if that's the case then obviously so be it but the events that happened off that are just you know it's ludicrous how police can contribute or without a warrant how they can arrest me on the wrong name. it's just you know it's absolutely above and beyond all to the tame me when i was 2 days into isolate in a home with a stipulated the would be only person to locate a form how does it make any sense that take me out of that environment and then keep me is basically a glorified prisoner. meanwhile global tourism crippled by the pandemic is
7:20 am
scrambling for ways to get travel started again and some agencies are hoping to turn to turn a crisis into an opportunity by offering tax scene vaccinations sorry vaccine vacations with russia among the most popular destinations. today we have around 80 people in moscow who if they want to can be vaccinated tomorrow and fly back on sunday we expect now every week the same quantity so long as the vaccines in germany is scarce. and i know that i have no fears because it's a recommended vaccination from the w.h.o. but you chose a good international reputation so from that i have no concerns. that
7:21 am
. operatives bookmaker paul i'm going to i want to receive the vaccine myself quicker than we would get it enjoyment of holding the 19 year old i would receive into vacillate and my father is in the interest of patients and board opportunity for him actually or because i want to protect my family and i don't want to remember the glorious home body i think i would probably get my turn at the end of the year and i don't want to wait that long and i had other options such as serbia and israel in iraq and the united states but all fell away for various reasons not all this was the best offer in. google misled uses in australia back collecting their personal location data that's the revealing of the country's federal court and it could land the tech giant with
7:22 am
an enormous fine the strike is fair trade watchdog which had filed the lawsuit declared that the ruling was a world 1st and said it does send a very clear message to all digital platforms. what the court found was that google misled consumers into thinking that if they turned off location history then that would stop google storing and keeping or collecting and keeping the personally identifiable location data when in fact that was not the case. well the judge in the case did rule that some new users were misled during the initial set up process of android devices because users were not simple and that even if they had the location history button disabled activating another tab called web and activity would mean google could still collect their location data it isn't the 1st time this trolling competition regulator and the tech giant have clashed last year google along with facebook were obliged to pay news organizations if their content
7:23 am
was posted on their platforms now google has said it rejects this latest ruling on location data stating the claims by the watchdog were too broad and that the judge's findings only concerned a narrow class of uses the company said it's considering an appeal internet law expert and social media solicitor year cohen assess the impact of the country's rosalie. google doesn't care the company's far too big for too monopolistic google doesn't care about reputation because there is no real competition out there google also doesn't care about a small relatively small financial penalty because it's got plenty of money so the only way we can have google starting to care about this sort of things is by either forcing the company to break up and start creating some real competition
7:24 am
or and imposing huge penalties the reality is that now they got caught again the australian court found them guilty of effectively cheating on their own customers. the question is what's going to happen next the question is whether google is likely to be detailed by these finding. joe biden has unveiled a new infrastructure package that's left many people confused in part because it is a mixed bag that contains all sorts of measures that appear to have little to do with infrastructure for example on jobs and environmental issues and only about a 3rd of americans say fasting support the bill and take it all his. joe biden's infrastructure plan is getting a fair amount of criticism polls show the country is pretty divided when it comes to the plan itself but overwhelmingly americans do agree that infrastructure should
7:25 am
be a priority joe biden is selling the plan as a jobs creator then american jobs plan is an investment in america that will create millions of good jobs rebuild our country's infrastructure and position the united states to compete china public domestic investment as a share of the economy has fallen by more than 40 percent since the 1960 s. then merican jumps but he will invest in america in a way we have not invested since we built the interstate highways and won the space race. a plan to get america moving again and get those cast aside by the pandemic back into the workplace has certainly got america talking with the word infrastructure very much on everyone's lips a sweeping new infrastructure plan to rebuild roads and bridges across this country biden vowed infrastructure investments could create 5000000 new jobs and bring back the pandemic jobs lost president biden in pits her yesterday promising to create
7:26 am
jobs in 5 climate change with a sweeping 2 trillion dollars infrastructure plan infrastructure means roads bridges highways it cetera however there seem to be some other items thrown in there too such as health care and benefits for business now democrats are not exactly clarifying the confusion paid leave is infrastructure childcare is infrastructure ok given is infrastructure supreme court expansion is infrastructure are you feeling confused well you're not alone many are starting to wonder if this is just a democratic party spending bill with all kinds of items thrown in as they are now considered to be infrastructure democrats infrastructure proposal goes way beyond what's working americans would call infrastructure it tries to use a bipartisan issue is the children holes for tax hikes miscellaneous liberal policies we need to tackle infrastructure in a more targeted way so what exactly is infrastructure 2 trillion dollars after all is quite a bit of money $1.00 thing is pretty clear while americans don't care much for red
