or someone bad or you chose to be there most of the time. it's not the case. see how it is to be born in the world's richest country. on this one day's headlines, enemies and neighbors report reveals the denmark spied on germany's angular merkel as well as on other you had to state for us intelligence. israel's longstanding prime minister benjamin netanyahu may finally be on his way out after the opposition's claim has got enough votes. now to drive in from office adoptee travels to the central african republic to bring a special to shed light on the world's worst and barely reported civil war. we talk about how russia is helping the government there, the counter armed rebels. there is a mind ahead that sounded serial might be going to destroy the booby trap.
6:01 am
ah . where good afternoon. she lived mouth internationals will use h q here in moscow this monday. my name is kevin owen. thanks for checking in. so 1st and then she heard european major investigation is disclose that denmark held the us national security agency to spy on the you with politicians, including the german chancellor anglo merkel. earlier ortiz morrow gaussian senior correspondent join me here to tell me more. it was a few years ago that edward still real the lead on americans last surveillance program. google lou, both spying on essentially, everyone at the top. mooney the most craziest conspiracy theorist sort of believe the breadth, the scope of the spine program. they were really targeting everyone,
6:02 am
american citizens billions around the world, politicians, including those in allied nations and nathan part, the nation with, through denmark that they targeted sweden, norway, as well as france, germany bagley muggles food was bothered by the n. s a by american intelligence. and what we have learned now is that danish intelligence was completed in all of this. they wouldn't knowing cogs in this vos surveillance machine. they helped american intelligence gathering leisure amongst others, their own coven corporations, being corporations, danish weapon manufacture, davis government, they handed over inflammation. danish citizens, the government, to american intelligence. and, you know, we've heard a lot of reaction to this latest investigation, which by the way, was carried out by european news agencies were given information. internal reports, witness testimony as well as inside sources in this investigation. and victims of
6:03 am
come out and said, you know, manner of things, no way sweden saying they want an investigation. and to be told of the answers, we've heard other victims, the leader of the german opposition, who was bogged saying that this is simply a group task on fish bits and decisions. it is, quote, set that friendly intelligence services are indeed intercepting and sling on top representatives of other countries. so one of the questions people might have is why denmark? well, on the technical side of things, denmark is a communications hub to all these on the cables from sweden, from germany, they will the converge in denmark, where are the telecommunication centers. and danish intelligence gave access to this infrastructure to american intelligence, sienna, say to all these spy agencies, they facilitate that they help them carry out all the surveillance, all this fine with full knowledge. one of the questions was, is,
6:04 am
was the danish government aware of all of this and by 2015, they were definitely aware of all of this the launch an investigation. and edward soon had since come out and said that joe barton, who was then vice president over the world. the 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. with regard to the latest revelations about the extent of denmark spike, this is all unofficial. the perpetrators in the united states, denmark, they, they still haven't issued any sort of any sort of meaningful comment the, the, the leadership. but it must also be mentioned that last year and this report that they published. they also said that the public may never learn the true magnitude of the, of this operation. the details denmark's role in all of this because it is too
6:05 am
sensitive. it may cause too much damage which ought to, you know, ring alarm bells. the fact that they would rather there be speculation rooms and conspiracy theories rather than admitting the truth. so we may never know the full magnitude, but let's talk about what we do know in a bit more depth, independent journalists, martin summers have martin. so denmark going apparently spied on leaders of hello, you state, crystallizing the, i think if more depth, the snowden, the 2013 revelation than yeah. well, in wage not very surprising. the intelligent services in these, ostensibly independent nato states are in fact sub sub contractors to the deep states in the united states of america. i mean, the relationship between the subservient intelligence services in the americans is always been fairly clear. although there's a pretense of the little otherwise and of course somebody in the danish intelligence services is obviously in leaks this information into the public to
6:06 am
name because they're not very happy about it. which shows that there is some kind of pushback going on. but nevertheless, it's hardly surprising we need, we pretty much knew this was what was going on. and if you were politician in any western european state, and you imagine that the us can't listen to your phone conversations, then you have a suspension bridge to. so i was saying this happened in denmark. the allegation is because a lot of communications lines came into denmark. all we also say that maybe other countries are doing it. you repeat neighbors, a denmark doesn't know. well, i would imagine to pete, somebody knows exactly what's going on here. the. the mythology of nature is that it's an independent states or formed into an alliance for mutual defense and the political leadership in each of the debt relevant countries. denmark, for example, germany or independence, and you know,
6:07 am
they jointly discuss with the us what the policy nato should be. now that it's never been true in practice, and it's certainly not true today. as a say, years ago, right. when this story came, i cause great embarrassment. the america was spying on the angle of merkel. what reaction we get to get now from denmark as their marks being figured here? what should they say? what can they say? well, i think the will be some kind of pushback because he's now in the public domain and they've been, you know, it's out there. i think they're probably, i mean the fact that she previous correspondence had nobody said anything yet is because they're working out what they going to say. this whole infrastructure displaying is enormous. now, i mean the money embellishing the internet, the mobile phone and so on means that this is so much simpler than it used to be in previous eras. lieutenant station for all kinds of agencies, not just publicly funded, splaying agencies,
6:08 am
but private organizations as well. to use this technology to get one up on their allies or enemies is almost overwhelming. although in theory, it's not really legal in the us constitution. you're not supposed to interfere with broad communications. but of course, that constitution was originally written the 18th century, when we're talking about letters moved on the pay. my final thought about the american side of this, and this was all the time when obama was pressed. the joe biden was vice president . so assuming that he knew about this, well, you'd like to hear to think more from him about the full extent to the issue. well, what's interesting is it, maybe he didn't know about it, or maybe he didn't. it's point told that somebody like the news, only the vice president didn't necessarily got told, get told what's going on. the intelligence services in the west have become very much over mighty subjects. they interfere in day to day politics. they try to stay
6:09 am
in the narrative about foreign conflicts about domestic conflicts. and, you know, the image that we have of russia was so much intelligence service run state is. it is ridiculous when you think about how massively influential the western intelligence services in their technical operations has become dice. the realistic, if everybody were on the line bristol, he came out in some independent journalist. thank you for your thoughts on it's a big story. see again, so from one big story to another one, after 12 years at the helm of israeli politics. but you mean at yahoo could be on the way out. right. wing opposition lead nestali bennett, has announced that he's now ready to form a new government with more details on this quarter. fast moving story now today, a middle east correspondent policy, natalie bennett, who was the leader of the main party, which means the right party in israel had now announced that he's joining forces
6:10 am
with the leader of the opposition. get yelled up, kid to get it. they have a 61 majority, which is what they need to be able to form the next majority coalition in his role . now, bennett has said that although he come from the white of the political spectrum and he's attention the joining forces with parties in the center and the next. he is doing this because the country has been in a crisis, politically. they have been for election in the space of 2 years, all 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 the own failure. but the coalition that bennet is joining is a very wide. we've changed so much so that it's going to be fragile and not be able
6:11 am
to form consensus on controversial issues like the piece. rather, it will have to limit itself to making decisions about the economy. how to deal with coven 19. and this is something that these really prime minister benjamin netanyahu has been appealing to the electorate. and to those who have joined the coalition about, he is not ready to give up without a fight. and he is warning israelis that is new coalition could spell. disaster might be fairly bennett, i heard not told bernard. unfortunately he is again misleading the public. the same lies an empty slogan. some have written division from the person himself, so's hatred and division. his leading the scam of the century. and it has also been the longest serving prime minister of israel. he's been in office for some 12 years . and what we see happening here is mr. bailey, political parties coming together because they have constraints upon issues that ra that because that we have a joint desire to get baton yahoo. out of this come at
6:12 am
6:13 am
with me, the but after the opposition and i just want crowd sent to the states a television to protest against enough tele bennett, who could now become prime minister without everyone's against the new government. very hot. and he came to protest against the government, which is stealing our votes. it can't be the benefits with 17 napoleon wants to be prime minister. they are stealing a vote for the right. it's a blatant violation of all these promises. i thought that we should come and
6:14 am
support government change and also show some support to get cash in depth and bennett, i think this is the only chance of a friend to get out of the media. mean it's just for so many years, no political and list unfortunately. oh a to show better explodes we to he says that sees increasingly isolated. now it is time for it to be out a go many people that even think he's done great things and he's done some, some fantastic achievement. it is wait time for him to go, he's toxic. but there's only 2 people in the country that don't feel that way, and that's mr. and mrs. need to know, and they will fight to the end and he will not give up. and normally, i mean here's what's happening. he's saying that bennett is going in with the left when government is, if the left wing is the most dangerous thing to happen to the state of israel, but yet if not to now step down are right when government would be formed tomorrow
6:15 am
. so he is so emboldened to keep his position, even if that means a left or unity government with the left wing people in there, he will go down to the end and even in a normal country after he's that prime minister, he'll. busy get the message after 4 elections and he'll leave office when he is not preparing to do that. he is preparing to be a very vocal opposition and believes that at the end of the day, he will get the $61.00 seats. even if bennett is installed temporarily, as prime minister, he is not going to give up in an appalling discovering canada the remains of hundreds of children as young as 3 of been found that a former school for indigenous students forcing the country to confront the shameful policy of retraining, as it was put aboriginal people with thousands of previously healthy kids dying, an educational establishment which a government report is called race based genocide. such could tell reports canada, a shining example of maximum woken us
6:16 am
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. we go, towns out though the beneath the glitzy slogan of inclusive a 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. com loops 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
6:17 am
and run by churches these. what educational facilities for fast people need. they want really, they were in dr. nation camps into your pin and christian ways of living native 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 patient fear? 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
6:18 am
anymore. he did get harder and yet you learn to shut down. oh, the, i couldn't talk a word of english. i talked 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. i 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 abused 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
6:19 am
20 years. and they had no one to tell because they were selected from their families and communities all to make them true canadians for a century the central goals of canada's aboriginal policy would cause aboriginal people to cease to exist. the establishment and operation of residential schools were the central elements of this policy, which can best be described as a 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 ticking senses which are unbearable to
6:20 am
here. and you know, for us, you know, we, you know, to learn that your potential find, you know, from the professionals that were brought in, you know, we are very much for the past is a dark place filled with unforgivable moments. it's an inescapable part of life. but to re brand yourself as the bastion of humanity, as a motto of increase 70, that preaches to others, how they should live. while the bones of oppressed children lie beneath your feet, it's nothing but an example of the hypocrisy, an insincerity. so often embedded in the work of the western world. so using the wad, people kind might food a guilty conscience, but it will make the skeletons and you'll call it 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 the community who burdened with this legacy
6:21 am
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 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 a lot of things that are still happening. and what looks like, you know, some is already well accounted for in that sheet that tuesday reconciliation final report. but there are other aspects that are unique, which are the unique needs of communities as well. had to bring to a special report for the central african republic, a country ravaged by civil war. we look at how russian instructors helping to and the conflict the ah,
6:22 am
6:23 am
thing. we dare to ask me. ah ah. hello again, free russians and to local police officers have been killed by an improvised explosive device as the central african republic battles rebels in its own going, brutal civil war. moscow has been trying to help the government by sending instructors and small arms and compliance with un resolutions in a conflict of luxury, but ignored to by world media in march. so you and human rights group expressed alarm of 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 is operating with the national armed forces. i'm going to leave you this
6:24 am
with a correspondent constancy rose coffee who went to the country and met the russian instructors. there. he sent us by this special report. 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 volatile. the rebels might have suffered his theory of 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. 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 government control only a small part of the country. the rest belong to brutal warlords in their gangs. that's when president stan or shawn to dera,
6:25 am
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. but how to turn the tide now, the government claims it controls over 90 percent of its territory. a huge can still, how many russian instructions are there. are. there are 535 instructors. what are they allowed to do here? did a train only in the open fire. they cannot open fire unless the life sign dangerous . if somebody shoot, the russian can, can find a bag, right? yes, they need to defend themselves. the russian and structure is in the are, are still part of the russian army, but certainly have that 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 russians and local military carry out together is this forwarding civilian convoys . to soldiers, a flimsy shack, a fire, and an old harp,
6:26 am
and dry over a wooden fence. that's about all we found of the road checkpoint, those those doing still fear in the enemy. the police here and also didn't seem for a minute. at least not in the village. we visited no surprise, the militants sent this to you. for the venue they came and started shooting into innocent people and then just disappear over all. 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, none is horrid for their last thing. another possible right hole in the back. we are warned this part of our journey might be dangerous to jo level. so i was in the passenger seat next to the driver was good and was
6:27 am
lighting a cigarette, which is low, passed my driver right under my notice was told over the convoy made it to no tree basis sunset. no incidents were reported this time. let me actually show you where are we going to sleep? because it's, it's quite something we can see a lot of weapons and ammo. there's someone's gun. this guy is known as guy that has been in the country for almost a year. now there is a use trib by his bad grinding, so using a to treat malaria his recently contract it. but how would you explain it? who in international worry or is truthful is the person who helps the nations in a difficult situation. when people need protection. the day we're flying deeper in the woods to see. yeah, go ahead. to see a gold mine in the village. they were recently captured from rebels is on the south,
6:28 am
but i c. r is actually rich with minerals and precious metals, but for this country it's been both a blast and i curse the 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 like basic things like food and clothes. and they haven't seen much of the outside world the road that leads to the gold mine was fried a little over a month ago. some times rebels come back during the night and lay minds hoping to
6:29 am
blow up a notary truck and seized weapons and ammo. was just fast the truck there was that that exploded on my name. but how do we know that there are no minds ahead or we just look age range. so this should be visible. there was a tip off from logos. we saw our man crossing this part of the road last night. the military decided to check thoroughly if they hadn't laughed. planted any explosives? stop away. real nice. is it a real mine issue there? yes, there is a disney to the mind is real and then to take one production they get to destroy the tribe right there. so we have to go away.
6:30 am
the question is a 4 is how do the warlords get down to the weapons and what is clearer is where they get their money was come to the village of miners who work at the gold mine looks like everyone's gone the at 1st the 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 oars themselves. ah, you are a rich man. great.
