the in the morning moscow time in today's headlines debate rages in france that is it marks the death of a man accused of genocide and he was was cause for millions of lives we look at where that 2 centuries on the polio merits today by unfair and celebration. for me to a hero he did a lot for the evolution of france but it cost a lot of freedom a lot of sacrifices to human level to have time to see his big mistake maybe to have reestablished slavery. new york's governor touches a raw nerve and vaccinated people to avoid their grandparents amid allegations his own mismanagement is to blame for nursing home deaths we hear from an activist who lost her father in

a care home in long island. as more u.s. states barred transgender participants from competition the kansas governor vetoes it sends an unwelcome message you put it up for debate. this is just a still story to. propagate the view that surround this woman on anything other than women don't want to see transmission due to female reader employees my daughter and grandson transfer all the addresses coincidence. by their life martin financials world news h.q. of moscow kevin owen here for the next 30 minutes with the latest for you hoping to stick around to take you through those stories and as you just heard france's most famous general. this waging wars beyond the grave on the cultural front as the

country pulls out all the stops to celebrate 200 years since napoleon's death debate nonetheless is raging about whether it's high time to cancel the emperor see by many as a genocidal tyrant to blame for the deaths of millions on the other side of it his fans hail him as the nation's greatest ever hero. enters the fray in paris. napoleon bonaparte it's a name that everyone you know is a french emperor conqueror of nations 200 years after his death and his ideals still shape france but wasn't a polian a hero or a villain i'm pretty good a bit of both because he did good things he did a lot for the evolution of france but he also destroyed countries during his conquests in fact so it is a bit of both. yeah but if i would say he did a lot for france but obviously he made mistakes too from

a foreign policy point of view this is one detail his career in fact he invented everything the civil code so indeed like all great man he did things that are good and then others that are bad and i think he did more good than bad for me to a hero in the 121st century napoleon's legacy seems to be on shaky ground critics have described the french leader as a racist sexist desperate and there is plenty of evidence to show that napoleon wouldn't cut the mustard in today's world we're going to the 1st time in history we systematically used a racial criteria for gassing exterminating the civil population in a manner that was the most economical most rational at the end there were several 1000 dead maybe some tens of thousands of civilians dead murdered in this way simply because of the color of their skin because of the fact that napoleon had reintroduced slavery in the main french colony. despite the mounting case against

new polling events all planned in france and belgium to mark the anniversary of his death there is no question of allowing this anniversary to be stolen from us people know perfectly well that he reestablished slavery but you can't reduce him to that no other figure has marked history like him while some former french presidents have shied away you from coming. memory ting napoleon president mack or not will not he's due to lay a wreath at napoleon's to me in paris and to make an address to mark the anniversary trances in fact the only country in the word where slavery was established after its was abolished nobody has ever since such a thing and i were 'd president the president of the so called country of german rights would like to celebrate somebody who was associated with so many crimes that

is acceptable is a day of shame mr merkel is not only making more world mistakes but also a political war that's going to be. 'd even for the elections he also says that it's ludicrous that france continues to celebrate a loser but our party was a disaster. because even if you don't care about black people in the court even if you do that if you don't care about your. friends who are aust 1000000 soldiers. which is a not for nothing. because of the good of the day he lost everything for example france all under louisiana which was at this time 20 percent of the united states that was lost because of separate trust. indian ocean like sedition muster and all of that was lost if a racist or a nationalist person should say he's

a boozer so does that change people's opinion of napoleon i don't think that we got in these cases yes because in a way he helped france with certain things but it cost a lot of freedom and lot of 2nd pfizer to human level to wave them off at 5 you see his big mistake maybe to have reestablished slavery but also he brought a lot to france who though his initiatives especially at all levels of administration and then he may have helped make some progress in certain countries maybe. we also from universities too like for john laughlin who claims many of those seeking to cancel the emperor ignoring certain values that may have in common with him. the fact is that he is a product of the french revolution and so the left if you like which would want to cancel him and dethrone him for being a racist or whatever. unfortunately is in a rather paradoxical position because of course the left supports the french revolution of which napoleon is

a product domestically it is undeniable that his influence is immense everybody knows that the napoleonic code is still more or less in force that he invented or at least codify all kinds of other things including the administrative structure of france and obviously influence the army and the school system and so on and so on so yes he was a loser on the on the international stage because he was defeated. but he in a way he's not a loser really i would say domestically on the contrary his his influence for good or ill is undeniable throughout the centuries. in new york governor andrew cuomo is in the news again this time for insinuating that unvaccinated people could kill their relatives itself that he himself was accused of allowing coba to spread in care homes with the state's high number of deaths now revealed maybe you will get a long haul syndrome that we're not really sure what it is yet but

a lingering consequence of cold. or maybe you've got home and future grandmother and wind up killing your grandmother that is if you would run mother survive whom was nursing home do you think the moment after he said that he was internally regressing setting himself up like that or is he just clueless i'll never forgive this man for making my friend die alone in a nursing home don't like wrong get me a grandmother. in march 2020 cuomo ordered nursing homes except covert positive patients you may recall because local hospitals were overwhelmed critics say that decision increase the death toll among residents new york state has one of the highest cope with mortality rates in the us with care home death around 14000 the governor has also been accused of hiding the truth figures but he's repeatedly insisted he won't resign because he doesn't see the miscount as

a cover up. q years 32 re 20 year he died in hospital died in a nursing home they died. tracy elven an advocate for those in nursing homes and whose father died in a care facility in long island things quote most comments ignore the reality of the situation. our seniors trusted us to protect them and what do we can we get a governor that failed us that arrogant and makes these tone deaf remarks that continues to twist denies that he placed in the hearts of us the grieving family members we had our leaders are in hell to arm and the head of the and i each out in february telling us citizens that we knew that it was most deadly to the elderly back then in february so when you sign an executive order that lets a virus that is known to be the most evil elderly people even with elderly people i

don't want to sound dramatic but that sounds a lot like murder it's unique and we need to know why he did it was there a monetary reason that he did it all of this needs to be investigated and every time he thinks he might get away with it he opens his mouth and he buries unsubtle little bit deeper plus the fact that we have over $15000.00 evangelists on our side to never discount be angels. transgender fav males can keep playing women sports in the usa the kansas off the state of failed to hold the governor vetoing a new bill banning them from taking part of the bill previously passed by the states targeted to males taking part in women's sports but it didn't stop those born female from participating in men's kansas governor laura kelly explained her veto. this legislation sends a devastating message that kansas is not welcome into all children and their families including those who are transgender while already at a high risk of bullying discrimination and suicide kansas is an inclusive state and

our laws should reflect our values this law doesn't do that since republicans couldn't stop abortions and there aren't too transgender rights big win for the family and those athletes i am annoyed by this they have grown up as men head there is transferred physical ability not a level playing field it's really stupid kansas should frank very governor for saving them from the stupid or the decision comes as 5 other states bring such bans into law 34 others are considering it we talked to lawyers stephanie hayden and also radio sports so seldom more about whether or not this issue is a dog whistle for transphobia and who should decide if such fleets participate on not. what with the right of women under its own interest that you know the number of times in car sports on our radio show we spoke with female athletes interviewed that they have concerns or de them selves feel that as his character is going on the ball their heads will hear it stay with us you have to sort for there is

a dangerous well this elude who will take advantage of listen to ignorance of good will both a lot of the society will lose a situation where there are no deadly consequences and what this is a balance in my view is using the argument about access to school to transgendered women and bells as a dog whistle for transpose be at lest the real heya this not sick here of what people call mileage command i would say trans women killing all to join female sports as a way of securing metals that they otherwise would not secure if they were competing against biological men in early sports i don't think there is you know there's there's not a trans flaw in this and i guarantee that once the green transco leave that is a dog whistle and i say my argument saying there well i don't want to see

a man who's transitioned into female to greener and placed my daughter in does not transfer will be just as commonsense this is just a stance story which is through town waltz again too. propagate the view that trans women are anything all the ball over the women in a women's sports of women's sports and i'm not saying that it's appropriate in every sport that somebody who was formally male should be allowed to compete in some spots that would be ridiculous however if the governing body of the sport takes the view that trans women trans girls can compete safely and thoroughly then lies in lots of again to prove look at the rules or bigger rebroadcast how they got in the states or it's not a transition in marrow who compiz their high schools and universities have to let or. present themselves or to prove feel themselves pre-meditation be given the same

rights and be there could be a few minutes force is sort of being used right now and a lot bigger that's fine or lesser than in the states and in the senate floor under the golden rule rule in the end. it is so so messy and so dangerous politics should be kept down to sports it is not the business in my opinion of a state legislature to start passing legislation restricting our express to sport for any group in money here in the way the should be dealt with is that each individual sport violates governing bodies should make a decision on what is best for the sport the some sports for example where it can be argued that the so-called biological differences are not going to make a difference to how severe their 3rd way and if they want to the polls or there will be a separate category male female your next category are the have to

caucus who is solutions that are. looking for a sporting point of view or unfortunately a lot of people who know about or no interest or want to get involved in it because it suits their in general and just is not going. it's the male athletes. the sports administrators what is best for their people and there are still going to be. a tsunami of infections as lead to almost 400000 registered kovco big cases in india with over 3000 people dying every day now at the moment it's a really unwanted global record hospitals are running short of oxygen masks funeral pyres a burning almost nonstop and concern countries are sending aid. i

am happy to help others during a medical emergency i myself tested positive for cover 19 and at that time the situation was very critical when i was discharged from the hospital i decided to create a water ambulance to benefit the people who are living in da lake i ask people to call me during the covert emergency i will definitely help them even if it's night . it is good for the people even then it is around delhi really need these ambulance because you are a medical emergencies it could be beneficial for us in kashmir there is also a surge in infections and deaths and these ambulance could be used during an emergency related to a coronavirus. when

we find homeless people on the streets check their needs and help them live a dignified life we received information that this homeless man has been here for the last 3 days he's not well we're going to conduct a covert test for him and if he is negative he will be sent to a shelter home. the news that has hope things get better soon there a is a since national wednesday late morning here just out for 11 coming up then you may netanyahu what future for him what is. prieta says that tells us direct in his view the israeli prime minister's career is over three's missed the deadline to form a coalition government war on it after the break.

the world is driven by a dream shaped by. the day or thinks. we dare to ask. how should we interpret the recent f.b.i. raid on the home of former trump lawyer rudy giuliani a legitimate investigation into wrongdoing or a strong and very public political warning is trump his former circle and

supporters the real target can the average citizen trust the f.b.i. . again the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu then has missed his chance to form a new coalition government that deadline expired midnight tuesday is failure to reach an agreement could no pushes the could party into opposition for the 1st time with well over a decade israel's been in political deadlock for the past 2 years during that time for parliamentary elections of failed to produce a stable government despite reaching out to rivals seem clued in the leader now of a small islamist arab party none the less netanyahu was unable to seal the deal 'd

within the 4 we were granted by the country's president our sister channel r.t. arabic spoke to former israeli prime minister ehud olmert he told us in his view the career of netanyahu is coming to an end. i think that speaks to what one everyone knows what if and you know he's in a very very bad situation he is at the very end of his career he's going to be kicked out from the government he's not going to be the next prime minister of israel let a sailor really 2 years ago and i was right in our last interview i told you he will not win any elections when you didn't win an election so he was manipulating well we went to 4 different election campaigns in 2 years because netanyahu couldn't win the elections and therefore 'd when you don't win the elections when you are in bad shape when you have troubles when you have to stand in court when you have political rivals from all sides what is left for you to do is to yell to

shout to to show off. and elementary school principals under investigation in florida after spanking a 6 year old the incident raises questions asking why such punishments these days continue in a country that prides itself on being a beacon of democracy well it mopin reports. now you would think that teachers beating their students in order to keep them in line is a thing of the past and certainly doesn't happen nowadays well if you think that you are wrong a recent incident in florida caught on video sparked outrage here's what happened to a 6 year old girl who allegedly damaged a school computer and there is disturbing video this morning of a school principal hitting a 6 year old student with a wooden paddle now the video was recorded by her mother she came to the school in order to pay a fine for the damage to property now the mother did not speak english and feared for her immigration status so rather than intervene she discreetly took out her

phone and recorded how the principal spanked her daughter with the help of another staff member nobody would have believed me i sic my daughter so old parents can realize what's happening in the school now the official rules of county school don't permit for students to be hit but apparently it does happen however many counties throughout florida do have official policies permitting the use of corporal punishment elementary school principals are now able to paddle misbehaving students in marion county and many people at our morning news meeting wondered could bay area schools be next piece of video showing 2 adults at an elementary school in georgia preparing to paddle a 5 year old child it's perfectly legal in that state and an 18 other states 19 u.s. states maintain laws allowing corporal punishment in public schools and almost every state keeps it legal in private schools now some say this is just part of the religious and traditional cultures of some regions throughout the united states but

others say this is an outdated authoritarian practice pretty much child abuse and it has no place in modern education point using and giving indications to our children who would employ reduces the amount of education and. mindset that a child could have while learning so i would say since that's the point of going to school been. we're dealing with a wooden board is counterproductive to all children having the possibility to excel in schools whether it's a poor school or a very well preschool children do better when they feel safe people across the country have very strong opinions about this disciplinary practice i feel like that's sort of something that a parent should do like that kind of discipline should come from parents and teachers should. just shouldn't be allowed to do that it's on their job description i will definitely make sure that those people go to jail because. i don't think they can buy in this day on the surface honest man i think that he's

a lot of ways to. make sure that the kids that are in the house the fact that beating children as a routine form of punishment in schools across the country certainly flies in the face of the image the united states has constructed for itself around the world a very sad thing about it is that we mean there are you store a whole reasons i'll put it like that for why re still having it but i think one of the saddest things about it is that there are over 2 dozen in other nations that will not be practice until we so that type of violence is going on in our schools and there's no science that proves that this helps and as a matter of fact the top schools in our nation frown upon the use of the word in blood so that kind of tells us something right there about its necessity. russia's brother francis something about some bust of the paris is an e.u. coordinated political stunt it comes off to moscow place sanctions on 8 e.u.

citizens and destructions on diplomatic missions here in russia. in our opinion the fact that the russian ambassador to france was summoned to the country's foreign ministry is clearly part of a political stunt coordinated by a u. member states and mostly repeats what was said to russia's representative to the you or the brock block previously levied sanctions against russia member states also expelled diplomats over the jailing of alexina valmy russia's placed a travel ban on 8 top officials in retaliation a move the e.u. president's branded groundless moscow's also stressed the move there was an act of protest adding it could be reversed at any moment we have repeatedly made it clear that it wasn't asked for started this war sanctions but a telling moment we are ready to walk our part of the path to end this pointless confrontation in which there will not and cannot be any winners hostile policy towards russia has been pursued by only

a small group of individual countries to their own detriment political commentator john ridley believes the e.u. simply though following the example set by the united states. well against interest don't i mean the russians are the obviously not started the sanctions regime and the sanctions game so i would say the russians of change must know that and the europeans must know that too my problem with the hopkins is that they are very ably following the americans this is the european parliament of the hill above among the political leader who's elected. at least part of his proposition with the. police and she with the gun sequence of his actions will be written by the european parliament as a. way to give her the glance again that i haven't really worldview in the long term and you don't think that's what's going to happen to. these decisions either way the just in the thing on the album of course leading to the heightened tension between washington a it's the there's a city that depends on the united states and even
