i. pad lines this thursday the power of facebook is questioned again made accusations of censorship and stifling free speech that after its oversight board upholds a ban on donald trump also to come tempers fray in the waters off jersey britain sending its navy as a dispute over fishing rights with france boils over and nato starts its largest military exercise in decades right on russia's doorstep you lines describing its training in albania as transparent and defensive. hello there nice to have you company this are you watching r.t. international which just gone 3 o'clock in moscow now donald trump will not be

posting on instagram or facebook any time soon their oversight board is upheld the ban it imposed on the former president after the riots on capitol hill in january a move though that has reignited the debate about free speech this kind of market expects. now the facebook oversight board said that they give facebook 6 months as a corporation to determine an appropriate penalty for donald trump while they are currently upholding the ban they are passing on to the corporation whether that man should be permanent how exactly that should continue many look at this is almost a good cop bad cop routine here's what we heard from the oversight board the boards for the 2 posed by mr trump on general with the 6th. the thieves books community standards and the instagram's community guidelines given the seriousness of the violations and the ongoing risk of violence facebook was justified even suspending

mr trump's accounts on general the 6th and extended that suspension on generally the 7th however it was not a broad group of facebook to impose an indefinite suspension now the facebook oversight board which has been referred to widely as the supreme court of facebook was created at the decision of mark zuckerberg the chief of facebook however he does not control it though it's funded by the facebook corporation its decisions are said to be independent of what the private corporation wants now the ban on donald trump was imposed after the january 6th capital riots at that point mark zuckerberg said that i will trump would remain off facebook to ensure a peaceful transition of power however 2 weeks later donald trump was out of the white house job i had taken the oath of office donald trump remained off facebook and that has been the case for 4 months for 4 months donald trump has not been on

facebook major social media outlets have banned him donald trump reacted to today's decision by the facebook oversight board calling it a disgrace here's what we heard from trump what facebook twitter and google have done is a total disgrace and an embarrassment to the country these corrupt social media companies must be a political. rice must never again be allowed to destroy and does some 8 electoral processes now donald trump at this point has set up his own web site in order to communicate with his supporters he will be posting and updating his own website just as he once did with twitter and facebook now the case raises lots of big questions about this facebook oversight board and how its decisions are reached and it should be noted that back in 2019 mark zuckerberg said that it really shouldn't be private corporations that are censoring politicians what i believe is that in a democracy it's really important that people can see for themselves what

politicians are saying it's that they can make their own judgments and you know i don't think that a private company should be censoring politicians or new this. new web site that we heard about they're also created an account on twitter where it was the message is despite you can't insisting it wasn't from tweeting it was quickly suspended for a campaign online twitter to block it and we discussed the implications of all of this with a former campaign adviser karen you and i and also with the r.t. america host chris hedges. they have created these digital monopolies which should be broken up if they can do it to a head of state like trump they can do it to a head of state like merkel or somebody else that they don't like what they really want to shut down or any critics on the right or the left of neo liberalism of corporate capitalism of the crimes of imperialism and. we just it's not a world that we want to enter because it essentially snuffs out the free flow of

information we must remember they know everything about us we know nothing about them and it sets a very dangerous precedent now it's a whole new paradigm and one that i find very terrified i think this should actually terrify every single american any single citizen in the free world because we're looking at. a private corporation who is operating as a platform and one day and a publisher the next day they can't have have it both ways but apparently they are right now these individuals whether they are the c.e.o. of the company or a board were representative of of the company itself to make these decisions to silence americans or elected officials and only becomes. a question of free speech we have a corporation an american corporation that is arguably more important and more

powerful than elected representatives. that the u.k. sent in his royal navy has opposed breaks his spat with from the fishing rights intensifies to gun boats to being deployed to the waters off jersey off to paris threaten to leave the island with that power where the waters between france and jersey have been shed fishing territory for hundreds of years the island belongs to the u.k. although does rely on france for some of its the main ities however the u.k. is divorced from the e.u. scott but the status quo. i'm french fisherman and i was sailing to jersey to protest delays in getting licenses to fish from the islands authorities can see their boats arriving off the port of some well they're also feet they are also for furious to about new limits on how long they can spend in shared waters and the last couple of days it's got really heated to charlotte dubinsky explains. with paris london heads over fishing rights in british waters the noise

out of french minister has no threat to plunge the u.k. ireland jersey into to organise unless french trawlers continue to have access. to government provides free tell you term measures and these measures of retaliation we are ready to use europe france has means they are inscribed in the agreement and so far as jerseys concerned i'll remind you for example of electricity transportation by undersea cable so we have the means and even if i regret that we could get to this point it will get there if we must. with france supplying almost all of the island's electricity this is a serious warning the electricity from france travels through you not to go and see as well so that. you know hospitals etc would be left without electricity really really. sort of threat to my it's

a very draconian. measure and it's not the only threat coming from france the u.k. is expecting a number of authorizations from us on financial services we will not give any and so we have guarantees that's one fisheries and other issues the u.k. respects its commitments its give and take each side to should respect its commitments otherwise we will be as brutal and difficult as necessary under the brig's that deal french vessels have the right to continue fishing in british waters if they had done so before the u.k. left the e.u. what's causing problems now is the required proof to show that french a fisherman claim that they are having problems obtaining licenses. were discovered that tourism had given a number of authorizations but even more so they have put in place conditions for the right of fishing conditions that limit us to today's conditions that limit the

number of days we can fish in the year limitations and fishing gear for the fishing zones they have been created all of a sudden without saying anything without warning anyone and without going through thistle channels with this ng measures suddenly everyone discovers that the rot on except a bill for certain conditions economically on bearable for french norman and breton fishing companies to complicate matters while jersey is a u.k. crown dependency it's responsible for its own waters and the island's fishermen think that they are the ones that get. doing the rough end of the deal you know the reports to the. regulated controlled fishing and protection of indigenous fishermen and you know we've had a massive fleet of really big fishing in our waters at the same time the boats have been prevented from landing there. just strange. it's almost

all these are the preach that we stand by but it doesn't really matter so much. a little i would like to see tensions have been rising for some time now with claims that only 22 from 120 boats that were crum or to france region have been given access leading to a blockade in the port of blowing the u.k. denies these claims saying the licenses have been issued to all 87 french vessels that have applied for them and met the criteria well more than 40 boats have been specifically authorized to fish in jews ease routers as the realities of brigs it sinking islanders and french fishermen alike it seems have been left trawling for answers charlotte r.t. paris. months of bone stomach pains and headaches have left

a mother terrified her sons welfare born is just one parent at the moment sounding the alarm about the british government's approach to long. everything back. to. normal kids getting them i'm sure they're looking at that and i know how that may have. the issue maybe not the degree of my fun scarse or some other kid for me live a lot while the my son the government got. to get one by rest and that we need and or children centers that we can take our children as the or and the nice thing is that they need now and the support that

they need if it can be mentally and emotionally and that is what we need here in the u.k. long coby does involve a range of symptoms and complications that still occur several months after the initial infection among them are fatigue headaches difficulties thinking coughs skin rashes and also insomnia each patient has their own set of problems and for the moment it's still unclear how long it lasts all according to the office for national statistics over a 1000000 people in the u.k. reported long coded symptoms in march with many experiencing at least one for 12 weeks but the percentage of children is comparatively low compared to other age groups already born again says that the main problem though is that nobody seems to know what to do. he was really ill up until oct and now he has. you know i got that sense since january and if they have more good days and bad we have equal attack for example he just had an attack if we can't.

with the week with my sons attacks you always do think this is their oil mess but. you know it this time his know it i'm up all learn. he gets headache. and stomach pains but then it could be another time it might be nice. he also had to prevent this harness wow go through wave a different friend and he why for now he's fine can be fine for wake and then it will come back as a mom when you see your son really suffering and there is no way of him getting better you still help us no dots really knows what. the problem you have in with long cut it is that it's not one system that affects it its various systems they need to your heart specialist you need the aspirin and charlotte if you need

to. you know you need to see a lung specialist in all these different people and the problem you have means no one deal with everything you can all go in but if people and it's like you want them to join up the door but they're not gonna treat me all that. major nato military exercises of kicked off an albanian defender europe is an annual event but this year is trails are supposed to be the largest in decades our senior correspondent regards the f. says though the reasons for it are not hard to guess. nato immediately after coming down in russia with the propaganda equivalent of flour and brimstone for daring to stage a snap military exercise has followed suit with the biggest nato war games the continent had seen in 3 decades but it's different they say you just don't

understand. i'm going to continually talk about what we're doing it's called transparency it's a wonderful thing and we're not getting that at a mosque allen and we and we haven't so that's a big difference right there and it's a defensive exercise which is you know a lie straight and in your face they do many takes a cursory look at the brochure or a visit to a u.s. embassy website for all the talk of russian aggression that isn't russian paratroopers practicing offensive operations in mexico along the border with texas it's american paratroopers dropping deep into simulated enemy territory and alice drive from russia's very real border has.

the scoop that this exercise is lost they were announced well ahead across 16 nations near enough 30000 nato troops thousands of vehicles ships and jets will pound away at targets and dummies to send a message usually you don't say to who it's understood but again ukrainian officials to the rescue ukraine by the way also taking part in these war games with the purpose of the exercises from the baltic to the black sea is to train and let us speak plainly for war with russia witnesses the thing is every year these need to war games get bigger and bigger more hardware more countries more american troops somehow defending themselves closer and closer to russia's borders russian drills are getting bigger too and we knew how irritable nato gets. when someone

else days hold large military exercises there are all who are concerned about a massive military buildup on the rush of the most and this miserable dog per. person probably cations. escalates the level of hysteria that followed the crimean military exercises was deafening and was everywhere and on everything how would their russia do this in the general vicinity of nato countries and not for a moment since all before has nato even conceived that our other countries feel when american troops are practicing invasion scenarios kilometers from their borders. against the of then i think to come over the next few minutes including a new poll around the world finds that the biggest perceived threat to democracy is actually america not russia or china but have

a look at why just after the break. the world is driven by a dream shaped by. the day or thinks. we dare to ask. the g.m. of the 1920 s. yeah the crash of the depression and why fuel the speculative bull market last year in the 1920 s.

was dead or margin people could buy stocks for china's sounds on the dollar and this ballooned up to unsustainable levels and it crashed and we have a depression so how's the debt you already mentioned this 200 percent debt the j.v. debt to stock market value 126 percent right so that's one indication of how much debt is way past where i was in the 98 point. 0 again now the russian foreign minister has his time to the use policy of sanctions against. his armenian counterpart with fielding questions from journalists after talks between the pair for me out of and he was done of sent this report. well this is the 1st leg of a circular journey as he said to visit azerbaijan next now mending relations between armenia and azerbaijan countries borderline warring with each other has somewhat dominated the agenda here have on today made according to both ministers

russia's and armenia's the process of settling the dispute over nagorno-karabakh is perhaps ever so slowly but is moving forward what right now russia is trying to help facilitate such a basic necessities in the golan a cow back has people's access to willock tricity stable access to electricity water food and just that embry turning to their homes another matter on the agenda here is a well helping armenia deal with the cold with 19 pandemic just recently russia shipped thousands of doses of its sputnik the vaccine against covert 19 and right now they are discussing a shipment of a 1000000 doses and perhaps even moving the production and having armenia produce manufacture russia's sputnik vive also i asked circular about how

he would describe the state of relations between russia and the e.u. right now because moscow and brussels they have been engaged in something like a sanctions ping pong against each other here is how the russian foreign minister described the situation. we won't leave unanswered these attacks against russia parliamentarians are companies which are guilty only of being registered in a country that the e.u. has decided without grounds and illegitimately to label an aggressor the e.u. believes it can do whatever it wants when it starts threatening us with new sanctions another main europe is impunity it's a road to nowhere so effectively while the raw member states within the e.u. who want a much much more. positive relationship with russia brussels believes that they can do whatever they want with 0 repercussions. now america has been named the world's biggest threat to democracy despite being touted as its supposed to be can

a poll conducted by the alliance of democracies foundation placed above china and russia the organization was founded by and is for good as muson the former nato secretary general well more than 50000 people from 53 countries took part in the survey 44 percent of fame agreed washington's influence was a threat china came 2nd and russia was 3rd on the list all the same though the u.s. secretary of state along with his british counterpart on monday singled out beijing and moscow as malign influences responding to a situation where our values are being challenged the international architecture is at least in some respects been weakened together our 2 countries recently took measures to prevent british and american businesses from inadvertently supporting forced labor in iran and elsewhere and china will continue our robust cooperation to would address the atrocities and change on a crackdown on pro-democracy activists and politicians in hong kong which breaches

china's international commitments and the repression of media freedom across china and in other parts of the world i also want to thank the united kingdom for joining us in holding russia to account for its reckless and aggressive actions or in an offer general horns as the public support for washington's power plays on the wane including in europe. people across the globe are not naive and they come to the simple conclusion that the united states is the bully on the block obviously they're seeking to launch a new cold war not only against china but against china and russia combined it's part of the psychological makeup of those who rubin understates to be even leading country on planet earth and they see that now nearing their grasp and so they want to take down china by any means necessary and there's also opposition to russia because russia will not go along with this new cold war against china i think that

poor results suggest that it will be difficult to launch the new cold war because international public opinion is not only hostile to the idea but i think in europe in particular there is no knowing and growing realization that the united states would like to fight china and russia to the last european and i don't think the europeans are sufficiently naive to go for that bad bargain. those movies in brief like today's of clashes in colombia have left $24.00 people dead and $800.00 injured the violence started with demonstrators rallied against proposed government tax reforms and yemen has been hit by deadly flooding dozens have died with thousands left homeless and i was particularly hot saying if yemen is already in the grip of a humanitarian crisis caused by the saudi led intervention. now the russian president has announced another cave in fact sane is ready to be

registered the single component jap is called sputnik light and it has already had encouraging results let's get more on the sound stay with the man cos that's across the story 1st off the name of our man just told us that what's so different about this particular vaccine well they are already calling it the younger brother or sister of the sputnik the vaccine which was registered in russia already this is a sputnik. alight maxine it only takes just as single jab unlike the other one word the word need to be vaccinated twice in order to develop antibodies now some information about this vaccine nearly 97 percent of all for all those vaccinated developed antibodies and its efficacy level right now stands at 79.04 percent and according to the manufacturers its effect of against all versions of the current a virus that exists in the world today now v. is apparently to remain the vaccine or choice for people here in russia meanwhile

lights will be exported to other countries that are once again according to the manufacturers. during a meeting here puting with the deputy prime minister in charge of health here in russia vladimir putin said that in other countries they see the russian vaccines to be as reliable and well crafted as an a k 47. i k well good news front anyway thanks but i'm not that i'm across the drive there with the latest news on the fact that russia has an average did another vaccine cold sputnik like it had a company thanks watching more from us at the top of the.

d.v.d. like the. little things i would say i'm not american but americans really. world

war 2 cures the depression carson show she's concerned prosperity of course the store. for the for us the whole world what it what and. historical rewrite ever so. as world war 2 to foment the cold war against russia against communism and. socialists nish bush if you are so you call me out here i'll just a swath of the earth so used to call them go. see world war 2 has been distorted credibly by the anglo-american media and that's because they want to diminish the role of russia. and stalin who actually defeated hillary.

listen please. to do good to deforest so they would talk to florists after this not so good. hostage to plot out to stick to the top for this day bust up 2 fronts a war room with all the fish loads off from their monton. photo donations it all done to god you know cool. it's how do you know the. order the boy in the system was supposed to go to the last in the earth is it would seem to slow the star yes the snow for pheasants.
