did you need to this end? ah, so join us in the depths will remain in the shallows. ah, ah, monday mornings headlines, enemies and neighbors. the report reveals denmark the spied on angular merkle, leader of neighboring germany, as well as on other heads of state. for us, intelligence will tell you more, coming up also headlining israel's long standing prime minister this morning. benjamin netanyahu may finally be on his way out after the opposition is now claiming it's got enough votes to drive him from office. and the special before he travels to the central african republic, to shed light on one of the world's worst and barely reported civil war. there is a mine ahead. this sounded way i'd serial might be going to destroy the tribe.
2:01 am
i like small tin to nationals with these edge q in moscow this monday. good morning for me, kevin. oh and thanks for checking in with us. so as you heard the 1st european media investigations disclose the denmark help the u. s. national security agency to spy on politicians, including german chancellor, anglo merkel for menace a contract from whistler. edward snowden, blue open the extent to the spying operations back in 2013. but now he's added. the joe biden, who was vice president at the time, is going to a lot of questions to answer when he visits europe next month. let's talk about these latest revelations. mackenzie of a senior correspondence across it. yeah, i remember this part from 2013, but recent history again coming back to bite denmark. yeah. well it's,
2:02 am
it's ongoing history. i would say, because we learned last year that you know, denmark came out and said in the report investigation, to all of this, the public may never learn about what happened the details because of the extremely sensitive nature, which is either with passive admission that we would rather let the room and rule the speculation do the talking because the truth may be so destructive that it may be worth, it just keeps all and about all of this at what happened this time around, the numerous european media outlets were given access to inside information to witness to inside sources, internal reports about how complicit danish intelligence was in entities. pine on european the technical side of it is the denmark is something that communications hop. so all these on the she internet cables, telecommunications was service, one of them stationed in denmark, many of them because it is a crossroads sort of in the middle of europe. and what we learned is that the
2:03 am
danish intelligence acting almost, you know, independent, they not only provided the united states the entity with access to all of these hubs, but they were complicit. they actually helped them gather information in spite of millions of europeans. now we learned this in 2013. we also learned that they were spine, and danish corp danish arms manufacturers. and the danish intelligence were helping the americans do all of this. but the more destructive part is that they were also spy. and then europe and officials on public elected leaders and the french and know weakens on the swedish, on anglo merkel. the german chancellor back then and steal the, the foreign minister, the leader of the german opposition. you know, they seem to be no end to this part labor even helping the americans spy on the american government. and what we learned last year is when the ruling, the ruler,
2:04 am
ruling leadership of the organization of the danish intelligence agency was, was fired, relieved of duty, as they said, because they were few to cooperate with the danish investigation government investigations. here. this is how independent, how much power these folks thought that they had. and only last. 7 year we may never understand of the full extent of this side by side this, by law peroration. but edward snowden has since come out and said that now is the time for answers might as well prepared to answer for this one. he soon visits europe. since of course, he was deeply involved in this scandal, the 1st time around there should be an explicit requirement for full public disclosure, not only from denmark, but their senior partner as well. so what's the reaction been them, or what reaction has been mostly from the victims rather than perpetrators. means
2:05 am
the most we heard was back during the last decade when it was said that a bomb apologized to aggregate merkel when she called them up to say, what the hell is going on. now we're hearing the norwegians, the swedish come out and say, you know, they taking these allegations very seriously. and they want a full investigation. because denmark has told them nothing and said nothing to its closest allies about what was happening. we've heard the germans, some victims of this bond come out and say that an allied nato allies buying on the nato allies simply grotesque on fish bits and as issuance is grotesque. that friendly, intelligent services are indeed intercepting and laying on top representatives of other countries. again, all of this is an official we haven't heard any statement from the danish government regarding what they're going to do about this in information for their allies. so we'll have to wait and see. maybe this report will jolt them into
2:06 am
actions. well, could the alright similar to thanks for brings have me this morning. now could be a change in the top pen, israel now for 12 years at the helm of israeli politics. but even at yahoo could be on the way this morning. opposition to natalie bennett's and said he's ready to form a new government their mission over the last 4 rounds of elections. we've seen a country weakening itself damaging itself and losing its ability to function. we see ministers who are fighting with each other, who do not manage anything. we have seen riots and the burning of synagogues and load an acura instead of managing and leading their methodist to spread hatred and polarization between the people of our country to conceal their own failure. but the announcements already been met with public anger crowds to the streets, a television to protest against bennett's right wing policy. joining a coalition with previous left wing opponents, he could now become prime minister on the back of a growing wish. across political divides to get netanyahu out,
2:07 am
the incumbent leader remain defiant though who might be fairly ben, it's not totally banned. unfortunately, he's again misleading the public. the same lies for them to slogan some have written division from the person who himself, so hatred and division. his leading the scam of the century jealous north a chris hedges spoke to us about it. he thinks that while things are looking good at the moment for who not much would actually change under a new coalition, at least on how israel deals with the region. it doesn't look good for baby. this was an unexpected development because it's a marriage between the mean a party which is even further to the right. not by much netanyahu could i and more center as party would lot not much will change. i expect to kind of stalemate with iran. i expect a kind of stalemate with the palestinians. is
2:08 am
a coalition that will focus primarily on domestic issues. yeah, and there may be changes there, but i don't expect any other major changes from almost 13 years now that nothing yahoo is ruled israel. it's past the spot on the next. in an appalling discovery in canada, the remains of hundreds of children as young as 3 have been found at a former school for indigenous students. it forcing the country to confront the shameful policy of re trading, of original people with thousands of previously healthy kids dying in educational establishment, which a government are full just called race based. genocide says can tailor reports canada. a shining example of maximum woken us a place where there is no mankind. there are just people is the love that's going to change the future of mankind. so we'd like you to, we like to say people kind, not necessarily mankind, more inclusive. turns out though,
2:09 am
the beneath the glitzy slogan of inclusive t law is a project past. harrowing use has emerged in british columbia of a mass grave of 215 children. indigenous children who were ripped from their homes and forcibly enrolled in one of the largest indian residential schools. the news that remains were found at the former kamloops residential school breaks my heart. it is a painful reminder of that dark and shameful chapter of our country's history. i am thinking about every one affected by this distressing news. we are here for you. the residential school system was indeed dark and shameful set up by the government and run by churches. these were educational facilities for fast people need they want really, they were in dr. nation camps into your pin and christian ways of living native
2:10 am
languages. what band and traditions frozen out reports reveal, but children were under fed, under clothes and often house and sanitary conditions. to the extent that one medical inspector wrote 24 percent of previously healthy children began tying in these facilities stories of abuse, physical, emotional and sexual, were rife. 2 8 8 8 the. 8 8 do you mean sincere? did you have was that it wasn't you today? it was going to be the target, the victim. you know, you weren't going to have to suffer any form of humiliation. he learned not to cry anymore. you just get harder and yet you learn to shut down. ah,
2:11 am
i couldn't talk a word of english. i tucked cree and i was abused for that hit and made to try to talk english. i lost my language. they threatened us with a strapping you spoke it within a year. i lost all of it. i used to him, i tried to trying and night. 2 asked the principal to take him to the hospital. he didn't after about 2 weeks, my brother was in so much pain. he was going out of his mind. i pleaded with the principal for days to take him to the doctor. ah, they started to sexually take advantage of me and abuse me. not one, not too many, many people for a very long time until i was 16. i held everything in and didn't tell anybody for 20 years. and they had no one to tell because they were slated from their families and communities all to make them true canadians for
2:12 am
a century the central goals of canada's aboriginal policy would cause aboriginal peoples to cease to exist. the establishment and operation of residential schools were the central elements of this policy, which can best be described as cultural genocide. the scale of this cultural genocide is startling. a 150000 children over a 130 years. and if you think it's ancient history, it's not. the last residential school was shot in 1996 over 4000 deaths by miss treatment, neglect, and disease with families often not the learning of that children fate. many atrocities and to consensus, which are unbearable to here. and, you know, for us, you know, we, you know, to learn of your potential find, you know, from the professionals that were brought in. you know, we are very much for that. the past is
2:13 am
a dark place filled with unforgettable moments. it's an inescapable part of life. but to rebrand yourself is a bastion of humanity, as a motto of increase 70, that preaches to others, how they should live, while the bones of oppress children lie beneath your feet. it's nothing but an example of the hypocrisy, an insincerity, so often embedded in the whiteness of the west and walled. so using the wad, people kind might soothe a guilty conscience, but it will make the skeletons in your closet go away. you know, it's all well and good for the federal government to make gestures of goodwill and support regarding the strategy. but as a community who is burdened with this legacy of the dark, dark chapter of canadian history and the federally mandated indian residential school system. there is an important ownership and accountability to both the
2:14 am
columns and all the communities and families that it has affected. and you know, there's still a lot of work that needs to get done. and you know, and lot of things that are still happening. and what looks like, you know, some is already well accounted for in that, that tuesday reconciliation final report. but there are other aspects that are unique which are the unique needs of communities as well. ahead are to bring you a special report coming up from a central african republic, a country ravaged by civil war. still, we look at how russian instructors, helping to end, that conflict. best account is coming up in the program this monday morning for moscow. ah, i
2:15 am
what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have is crazy. plantation, let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, a very critical time, time to sit down and talk when i would chose the wrong. why don't i just don't the rules? yes, to fill out the thing because after an engagement equal betrayal, when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground in the the
2:16 am
news. ah, why again, 3 russians into local police officers have been killed. one improvised explosive devices, the central african republic continues to battle. rebels is brutal civil war. moscow has been helping the government by sending instructors and small arms in compliance with you and resolutions in a conflict. this largely been ignored by the world's media in march. so you and the human rights group expressed alarm at the nation's increased use of private, military and foreign security contracts. as the agency says, human rights abuses linked to private military personnel and foreign security contract as operating with national forces. now i'm gonna leave you this with a corresponding constantino's cough who went to the country and met the russian instructors there. and you sent us about this special report. the we're flying out
2:17 am
of the capital bunky issued the cdl ball at the border with chad. this is, are, are playing by the way. we were told that that area where we go in is controlled by the government for the most part. but there are still groups of rebels hiding in the jungle. and the intact convoys or out post every now and then the country looks peaceful, but only when you see from above ever since the central african republic gained independence from france in 1960. the situation here has been involved at l. the capital of the central african republic under attack, 100 kills in the capital bank and the central african republic, staged to a taxi of the capital baggy this is a country already reeling from the years of war and instability. the most recent flare up happened only a few months ago when over a dozen heavily our military groups deemed up and marched on the capital bunky.
2:18 am
they attempted to seize the city and overthrow the government. so here we are. the rebels might have suffered exterior to defeat in the past, but there is still a very real threat in some parts of the country. that's why our armed escort was absolutely necessary. driving to local military base, people look at us with suspicion. local militia are acting here in like ambushing military convoys like ours and i know somebody did not sign your tech on the column was exactly in this area. they fired from the bushes, so using a man to grenade launcher, but unbearable grenade launcher and rifles. i know, but they miss you feel some sense of security only after entering the military base, where the local army, stationed along with their russian instructors. but this facility came under attack just 4 months ago in 2018 the central african. he's herman control only a small part of the country,
2:19 am
the ras belong to brutal warlords and their gangs. that's when president of re stan or shawn to dera, asked russia for out with the approval of the un security council. moscow start to stand in like weapons and instructors to train the army. that how to turn the tide . now, the government claims it controls over 90 percent of its territory. you can still, how many russian instructions are there? are. there are 535 instructors. what are they allowed to do here or do they train only in the open fire? they cannot open fire unless their lives in danger, or if somebody shoot the russians and can find that right? yes, they need to defend themselves. the russian instructor is in c r r. i feel part of the russian army, but certainly have vast military experience for security reasons. they don't want to be identified and don't give their real names. one of the tasks that the
2:20 am
russians and local military carry out together is this sporting civilian convoys were grounded, rare access to see them working close shop on the programs. the reason now we are in the so called the road of life to the camera room. go on a couple of cool to write them life because all supplies, including food and various household goods, mainly along this road to automate job last fall. or they were allowed only quick job and the security guard was have the radio all the time pushed into the jungle. the militants now organized sword is in target unprotected vehicles, plundering anything that comes their way to soldiers, a flimsy shack, a fire, and an old harpy drive over a wooden fence. that's about all we found of the road checkpoint that is supposed to instill fear in the enemy. the police here also didn't seem for a minute,
2:21 am
at least not in the village. we visited no surprise. the militant sends this to renew. they came and started shooting into innocent people and then it just disappeared over all signs of the russian presence are obvious. inside the local police station, we found a scrap of paper with the russian captions on it and end time malaria medicines, foreigners suffer from tropical diseases. more than the locals cooperation between the central african military and their russian. instructors has been very close recently. even the country, the often have to harry roof and food. we've had lucky to have an interview with an actual warlord, and this man is the leader of one of the militia groups that used to fight against the government. but then they switched to the side. this is how this man looked in the past. and this is him now. this isn't well, i going to tell you, you doesn't look like a former militia commander actually under more is true. now,
2:22 am
i'm the businessman. there was a time when things were not going well. so i did it, and i'm a business man. that's it can be abusive and i want to ask you, if you get to kill anyone yourself, there is no so on the battlefield. who is the commander? he gives the orders, but the men fight, not the commander. so i sent myself on the path of peace. then i haven't broken a chicken's neck. unlike of july, his saying now an advisor to the president who did not every militia commander has agreed to lay down arms. yes. and finally, we made it to the border with camera and there is a rushing out which looks much more solid than everything we've seen along the way . basically this is a stronghold where all the incoming trucks are being organized. the convoys, 9 is already further lab. take another car, it's also bullet right hole in the back to the car. and we are worrying that this
2:23 am
part of our journey might be dangerous to joe. so i was in the passenger seat next to the driver with lighting a cigarette, which is low, passed my driver right under my nose was told over the convoy needed to know 3 basis sunset. no incidents were reported this time. let me actually show you where are we going to sleep because it's quite something we can see a lot of weapons and ammo. there's someone's gun. this guy is known as godaddy has been in the country for almost a year. now, there is a use driven by his bad guy using a to treat malaria his recently contract it. and how would you explain who in international worry or is the truth is the person who helps the nations in a difficult situation when people need protection. the,
2:24 am
today we're flying deeper in the woods to see go ahead to see a gold mine and a village they were recently captured from rebels is out of this house, but i, c, r is actually rich with minerals and precious metals, but for this country it's been both a blessing and a curse. as we flee over the thing jungle, i was sitting close to a supply of hand grenades. that grew, keep them in case they're fired at from the ground and they need to scare the shooters off. the village we saw was typical for c r 4 and devastated people basic things like food
2:25 am
and clothes and they haven't seen much of the outside world has been less than a month since the village was freed. this man says his father was murdered by militants because he refused to give them money. the thing is, there is not much you can take from these people, whiskey. but actually, when the russians came, what did they do here? no problem came to protect us. how did the russians treat you? have they been impressive? no, they haven't. we can fly any further and we have to change the transportation. so we're going to use those bikes to get further into the jungle to reach the gold mine. this is our company, the local military, guys with the road that leads to the gold mine was free to little over a month ago. some times rebels come back during the night and lay minds, hoping to blow up a notary truck and seized weapons and ammo was just fast. the truck there was that
2:26 am
that exploded on my name is on the bus. how do we know that there are no minds that we just look age range, so fits should be visible. there was a tip off from logos. we saw our man crossing this part of the road last night and military decided to check thoroughly if they hadn't laughed. planted any explosives, stuff, or something. it looks like there is a mine ahead that sounded away i'd serial mine. is it a real mine issue there? yes, there is a business to do. mine is real. and then to take one belgian production, they're going to destroy the right there. so we have to go away.
2:27 am
the question is a, for is, how do the warlords get situ deadly weapons? but what is clearer is where they get their money. so with come to the village of sliders work at the gold mine looks like everyone's gone. the 1st villagers hid there is still scared of men with guns. local rebels used to force them to work in gold mines like this, a slaves and killed those, refused to do the job or were too exhausted to carry on. now it's relatively safe and people can keep the golden or to themselves the you are a rich man. great. how much money
2:28 am
you will get for this amount of the testing done if you missed something and having spent the full days in the most remote and perilous parts of central africa, we finally flew back to the capital for an interview with the countries president, stan, or shawn to dera. mister president, i have to apologize for showing up for this interview in this dirty shoes, but in my defense, we have been to some really extreme places here and we get a glimpse about what is happening on the ground. and i'm sure you know this, but there are still places areas in your country that are unsafe. so my question is, how are you planning to win this war? today we are facing acts of aggression by the coalition of patriots with change, which is a union of former groups that have signed an agreement on pace reconciliation.
2:29 am
