each or own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created the response has been massive so many good people are helping us . it makes us feel very proud that we're in it together. the headlines this hour mass rape child murder and ongoing trauma damning new report sheds more light on how france quote enabled the forseeable genocide of hundreds of thousands in verandah in 1904. a jury finds minneapolis police officer derek show even guilty on all charges in last year's killing of george floor 8 the case has been closely watched with fear fear as rest in case of acquittal.

residents of a german village don't know whether to laugh or cry as different covert restrictions apply depending on what side of the street they're on. there is the music and pint used alone but the district says some houses belong to one and some to the opera the rules should be the seed everywhere and of course is difficult to keep track. of all welcome and a very good morning to you you're watching r t international with me the key airing. the sex assault some destruction of life on an appalling scaling clue to give children the her testimony exposed a new report finding france enabled the genocide of hundreds of thousands of rwandans in 1994 the document commissioned by the african states government says paris quote did nothing to stop the slaughter of ethnic tutsi the latest witness

accounts paint a terrifying portrait. even today that sadness just not end the thought that someone came raped you destroyed you and killed your child it is an extreme strain on my heart that will never end i only have survived. one woman died after hutus hacked off her arms and forced them into her mouth her 2 small children aged $1.00 and $5.00 for them slaughtered. they came in a great crowd shouting like crazy people the whole place was littered with bodies.

they were poets alleges france continued its military support to the country even after confirmation of widespread rights abuses more than a 1000000 people lost their lives the scale and brutality of the killings were evaporated worldwide however france still insists it doesn't bear responsibility or inaction as artie shaw ski reports. warning close to 600 pages and based on interviews with hundreds of witnesses this damning report adds fuel to the recent findings by a french commission that said paris was a quote lying to the hutu resume genocidal agenda. to not have acted to prevent the genocide that was a fact but another fact is that the government of france at that time accompanied the rwandan government that was committing massacres preparing

a genocide the french government at the time was close to that rwandan government and supported them in various. waste training the diplomatic and political support that's what we call the responsibility of france in 1904 france led operation turquoise a military humanitarian installed intervention in rwanda it went under u.n. mandate but is moving it seems to being a front for collaboration with the extremist is that allegation of people too close to the hutu regime was also in levels in the report into the genocide commissioned by from really just this. is the french authorities who in this case bear grave responsibility because every 3 years instead of supporting democracy in peace in rwanda they supported the rwandan government's policy of radical action to vision under the leadership of a dictator who was very close to the hutu extremists however senior officials from

the french government. at the time of the massacre still refuse to accept the blame i disagree because i did my utmost to ensure that france would not be blamed for being passive and indifferent my concern was not to commit our army in a civil war where it would necessarily have appeared as supporting the hutu government that was being criticized for the genocide france need not apologize although knowing the report says that they found any evidence that french officials all personnel directly participated in the killing of this latest investigation shed some horrifying light room in rwanda relations between the 2 countries have been strained for many years and it's uncertain that with these new reports that this doctor can finally. so much even speak r.t.

. and survive all reminders war and genocide told us some of the hair reflects suffering he himself had to go. my personal experience was very traumatizing one of the most significant incidents was where i was captured with my mother and we were made to a digger on graves this wasn't the only. incident closest to death this is not the 1st report commissioned by the government or wonder that basically accuses france or being complicit in the genocide in some parts of the genocide was a genocide it was said it was sparked and started with the killing the shooting down or the plane carrying 2 presidents there were one president at the time who was negotiating with the rebels and the president who were both on display in the state of the genocide and there's been back and forth reports out the reports.

changing reports like a ping pong game did show a side today is used as a political tool the real common ground would be. investigate who shot the plane and that would answer a lot of questions in that would show a lot of the roles by the french and the government of rwanda. the minneapolis police officer derrick chauvet has been found guilty of the murder of george floyd he's been convicted on all counts crowds that gathered near the court celebrated of date the americas john huggy has the story. guilty on all counts that's really the headline probably the dramatic moment that's going to resonate you know continue to make headlines over and over as their show them being led out of the courtroom in handcuffs guilty on our council let's go through those real quick so count one second degree murder and he faces now to 40 years in prison on count one count 2 was 3rd degree murder faces if up to 25 years count 3 2nd degree manslaughter up to

10 years and these were all considered separate charges still not even. 24 hours after deliberations the jury came in and handed down this verdict which generally in my experience as a journalist more than 20 years covering all types of court cases that doesn't bode well for the defense particularly in a murder case when a jury comes back that quick also the prosecution you know had had called something like 36 hours last count 36 different witnesses experts medical experts law enforcement experts. in the 45 year old chauvin pleaded not guilty to all the all the charges his defense attorney eric nelson's basically tried to sell reasonable doubt among the members of the jury saying that his use of force that showbiz use of force was justified and that ultimately it wasn't his actions that were responsible for floyd's death well clearly the jury saw it differently based on not

only the prosecution's argument but also the videos from 9 minutes 29 seconds that was the number that was repeated over and over and that spoke volumes of derrick show on george floyd's neck and back as floyd beg for mercy beg to be able to brave and called for his dead mother.

what happens now procedurally well you heard the judge he'll meet with the jury sentencing will happen it's not going to happen today it will happen likely in the coming days or weeks there is also another question about appeals will everything else and will the defense appeal the ruling there was talk that representative maxine waters some of the common sense she made to you know to protesters may come into play may have somehow coerced in one way or another the jury believe it or not matter. that there are probably.

more than likely the defense will raise that issue raise the media coverage in its appeal but bottom line is derek chauvin former minneapolis police officer was convicted on all counts of 33 counts 2nd degree murder 3rd degree murder 2nd degree manslaughter the judge in the case has asked officials on the media to be more responsible in nikon through each one and some of the comments from politicians could even prejudice this trial at the coals by one congresswoman to quote to get more confrontational a shot if it was acquitted well reported by mainstream media as harmless i don't think what she said and in any way should we should criticize her for of course we should be more confrontational do you really think she's calling for violence and most people know that that's not true. and the people who are speaking out against

her or using it politically i don't think that maxine meant anything by that except to say you have to stick with a you know you have to be there she is she's fine as far as i'm concerned well 1st off they've got the mainstream american media in their back pocket but this is by any means necessary you know this is rules for radicals this is whatever it takes to get the job done what maxine waters did is tantamount to mafia intimidation during the trial i mean it really is you know now these jurors if they catch wind of this in any way shape or form are going to think that hey you know we brought dozens of people dying last year is the blood of those people are going to be in our hands if we don't return a guilty verdict against child and you know who wants to live with that on their conscience it's completely thrown the legal process in the due process and the constitutional rights of this police officer into question. house speaker

pelosi also went on to applaud the verdict and ended up thanking george floyd for sacrificing his life. we saw it happen and thank god the jury that dated what we saw what we saw so again thank you cure. for sacrificing your life for just thank you murdered person for without your horrific killing we would have never known that it's not ok to kill people for no reason nancy pelosi in a nutshell the word 2nd 5 simplifies it was necessary this is how liberals will read produced a larger labeled his life expendable in the 1st place no no no no what the 2nd feis in your life is something people have to do on their own floyd was murders we just had the whole trial we discussed police announce a change towards the case with analyst sound whether progress has been made in

combat saying police brutality. but i thought was most unusual about this case is that a director of on was pretty much thrown under the bus by the police department is own police chief justified against them normally emmy's trials in these cases were police officers are accused of misconduct and go on trial policemen fill the room to intimidate the witnesses to intimidate the system itself which are incorrect and we don't see any of that in this case we didn't see the police department supporting show bond we didn't see the the cops in the or room we also didn't see a lot of his family members at the courtroom either so that was kind of unusual probably because very much because of what we'll see both local national and international the case got there was some pressure on the state to prosecute show on and i think this is the result of i don't see this as a race issue. i know a lot of people do but on the ground finger on the poles of the community trying cases day in and day out there is no longer me and very frustrating lee

a not so obvious presence of police officers who abuse their authority against black white indian agent american or whatever it may be that they're dealing with and you know it shouldn't be that way you should trust law enforcement officers many people including myself support good law enforcement officers but it's the bad apples that contaminate the entire bowl of minestrone soup as justice oliver wendell holmes would say and let's hope there's an extraordinary amount of change that's going to be weaved in the community and to the nation for real use of force implementation not just showing up to a class and signing off and say hey i let you do this for half an hour we need real change but what we've seen of the flow slow progression on the initial police reform i would argue that this is that same case that happened 20 years ago we always talk it was like this 20 years ago but prior to the proliferation of the internet and it's the video and cameras and viral videos those sorts of things that

we. the prosecutor said all it would have been written up that the man had a heart attack during an arrest and therefore they transported that are. so we are seeing progress in the right direction i think the people who are energized right now have to start slow political civic help the judiciary to push their political dip of their political issues or work because if they were just for the good team to bouncing from shooting to streaming through event to event when they were having any at all as we have literally waiting on the federal government is important but what's more important this race is this is on this feeling of love. and around the time of the sheriff in trial verdict an african-american teen was fatally shot by police in columbus ohio the officers were responding to reports of a stopping with a girl allegedly attacking 2 people with a knife angry protests spilled out onto the streets following the deadly shooting. across the street and enjoy less covert restrictions that's the bizarro lender

which one divided german village lives and the absurdity of the situation is not been lost on the residence. her. at a city last update with different rules in place and leave the side of a special boundary it's because scrutinous a split between 22 or tauriel service allows for a district in the city of las vegas and allow a group district infection rate is over $160.00 per 100000 so that part of our

village has stopped the restrictions. i'm not so it gets confusing and front there is the music and behind you is the lounge but district to some houses belong to one and some of the upper big accepted that is the residence just accept this it's been happening ever since the restrictions began with sticks to the rules so no one asked why am i allowed to do this and not that it just works. to smooth out the ships just the schools have to be close to the good then too long the districts and the texas drive from one side of the street 2000. and 6 and the rules should be the sea ever way of course is difficult to keep trash that's why sometimes people breakdowns you forget about.

still to come india goes back into lockdown after a long record number of new covert cases without the details for you after this short break. it.

seems wrong. just don't. get to shape our. culture. and in the game equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart if we choose to look for common ground. welcome back in a new pinnacle for our irony notoriously some so happy you choose how sponsored a freedom of expression award and doled out the prize to its own boss but with 99

percent dislikes on the video of the event is seems the ridiculousness of the situation is not lost on his users ought to use dimitri. you know how it's becoming harder and harder to tell reality from satire these days well it's because of stuff like this since and i'm so honored to be able to present you tonight with a free expression award for your incredible leadership with u 2 and i just want to say thank you for all the work that you've done to empower people around the world congrats on your very well deserved award thank you so much for the freedom farm for having me here today and for this award this is real in award show on you tube sponsored by you tube giving you tube c.e.o. of all things in award for freedom of expression means are literally coming to life . and you need a lightsaber to cut through the irony in this case which might explain the whole

area is this like ratio on the video. over the last few years you tube has practically become synonymous with censorship and funny thing is they're not really even denying it c they just call it responsibility work in her post award interview susan widgets you tube c.e.o. took the time to explain the fundamentals of youtube's work the 4 r's of responsibility the 1st are i kid you not is removed you can't make this up after receiving an award for free expression the 1st thing she brags about is how they removed $9000000.00 videos in the last quarter that's $3000000.00 videos a month and all of that or most of it was done with fabulous machines these are videos that allegedly broke you tube's ever changing terms of service which at this point is so vague and open so interpretation that literally any video can be suddenly deemed unacceptably dangerous have an opinion on coded don't like the

w.h.o. don't like the election results banned for free speech the 2nd r. is rise which basically. it means boosting or recommending videos that have the right opinion according to you tube so basically videos by mainstream media corporations their partners but you know those guys that always tell the truth and never run a fake story. 3rd are is reduce this one is the best this means ghosting or shadow banning or hiding videos that have not broken any rules that are completely fair game you tube just doesn't like them so they make them impossible to find so even if you're really careful about getting your thoughts out there and here to all of you tube's ridiculous rules avoid all the no no words you still might get shadow banned or censored if youtube doesn't like your opinion and then there's a lot of content that technically meets the spirit of what we're trying to do by it

. it's borderline and so for that content we will just reduce meaning we're not going to recommend it to our users and this has been happening to countless creators over the past few years subscribers magically disappear videos don't show up in feeds of people who are subscribed and so on a platform that prides itself on allowing diverse voices there doesn't seem to be a lot of permissible variety when it comes to actual speech the final r. is reward which is basically all about that ad money making sure that people with the right opinions get it and the people with the wrong ones don't explain to me again how any of these principles have anything to do with free speech the freedom forum institute which gave out this award claims its mission is to foster 1st amendment freedoms for all but apparently they haven't actually read the text of

the 1st amendment it literally says congress shall make no laws abridging the freedom of speech but i guess you tube isn't congress so they can make all the laws they want right well then maybe they shouldn't pretend like they actually care about the 1st amendment or free speech and definitely not get awards for it. the indian capital has imposed a week long lockdown after a deadly surge in coded cases fatalities hit a daily record in new delhi on tuesday bringing the nationwide total to more than $180000.00 hospitals across the nation are severely overcrowded meaning new covert patients are simply being turned away there are widespread reports of ambulances loaded with bodies dropping them off a crime of toria and it's feared the official death toll could mask the true scale of the crisis public health experts told is the situation is dire. the indian situation right now is very grim with girl doesn't really you know

continue to go up it will be very difficult for them to sort of look you know really explore i think the current situation for an environment is will be to really ensure that they have enough supply for the misty population but do you who isn't about exports i think that is something which we now had to be. the bigger issue is the lack of diagnosis because there are cases where people are not able to you know. 19th with unable to go for 0 or different mcgann ism and also i think the other german which is emerging is that it's hitting the population of a young girl each which was not the case in the in the we one. india registered 273000 covert infections on monday alone with the numbers remaining close to record highs but while the caseload saw as the vaccine rollout is failing to keep up only

a small fraction of the population has been inoculated despite india being the world's largest fact seen producer manufacturing many of the shells used in the west india has also signed up to produce 200000000 doses for up to 92 countries as part of the w h o's kovacs program although those supplies are now on hold the government has moved to restrict vaccine exports to make out for the domestic shortfall delhi medical association doctor told as india can no longer afford to spend it shops abroad. it is less than 10 percent and. he. did nor. so many see. the impact on the herd immunity on the coverage of. it with you. for india to. give their international

obligation in the institution we're going to. be strong for their countries. where depending on india would be. on their own to sources. after mass allegations of sexual misconduct and mismanaging the pandemic the governor of new york has yet another scandal on his hands andrew cuomo is now being investigated for using state funds to write his new book it's called american crisis leadership lessons from the covert 19 pandemic and much of the work in compiling the memoir was done by cuomo starr says while receiving state salaries quote most team denies any wrongdoing. there was criminality involved he is certain it's facing this just the furthering of a political pile on and his state official who volunteered to assist on this project did so on his own time and without the use of state resources earlier this

year andrew cuomo was accused of downplaying the true death toll in new york state care homes cuomo has accepted some blame but denied a deliberate cover up tracey elvie no assistant director of voices for seniors which represents the rights of care home patients thinks the book was poorly timed and he dove under cuomo. we're in the middle of a pandemic he people are dying and you had time to write a book that was my 1st thought it was adding insult to injury it felt like i got hunched in the gut all of the families felt the same way he he dares to write a book when we're suffering and people are dying a just it's unconscionable it's amazing that the deaths of over 15000 innocent senior citizens wasn't the nail in the coffin so to speak for governor cuomo in

a governorship is that that's the most egregious cranleigh the sex stuff that bad the book deal that's bad too but there's nothing war agree just in the mass deaths of over 15000 innocent senior citizens if that didn't get him out of office what will get him out of all that's many thanks for joining us here on r.t. international having a wonderful start to go day it will be back in 30 minutes with the latest. the world is driven by the dreamers shaped by the brokers are those brochures.
