the me age thing investigation reveals on a host of america's riches, billionaires are avoiding taxes, but the u. s. revenue service themes were concerned with finding to leave the information for backtrack. families, previous full approval of ukraine's controversial kit for the european football championship thing. the slogan, glory to the heroes must not be removed from the shirt. only eve of the delay euro 2020 tournament the world health organization warned the 11 host nations to save the julian to prevent a repeat of the cobra. the absurd thing last summer. ah,

just after a tenant night in athens in due. huh. and here in moscow, this thursday, june the 10th welcome to been use our own r t. it's been revealed by the host of billionaires on america's rich list, stamping, avoiding taxes. this by the surge in their wealth. during the pandemic, the experts a comes from a u. s. independent journalist organization which received a leak from a whistleblower up the revenue service. now that federal body has now launched on investigation, the was eager set up reports, perhaps not the kind you might expect. there is been generations of american politicians repeating one mantra about how they should tax the rich. we will demand that the wealthy and large cooperation thought paying their fair share of taxes. it's time for a well in america. america's tax code is

a total dysfunctional mess. it is riddled with loopholes that lead some special interests, including myself in all fairness is going to cost a fortune this they believe me. i think you should be able to become a billionaire in a millionaire. pay your fair share, repeated over and over again. it's almost like every bit here was taken out of some secret tax spell book and like any spell these failed to conjure a real well result. take he'll and mosque between 20142018. his wealth balloon by almost $14000000000.00. guess how much he paid in taxes, a whooping 3.27 percent. and if you think that slow, no, that's actually pretty average. that's how much america's 25 fattest caps gave up to the i r. s. and if you want low look no further than jeff basis, and warren buffet, who's true tax rate barely hovered above 0. i continue to believe that the tax code

should be changed substantially. huge dynastic wealth is not desirable for our society. yeah, that moment when your taxes are so low, even you can't help but feel like a bit of a crock. and all of this was lead to journalists at pro public, and the rest is investigating spoiler alert, not the billionaires. there is an investigation with respect to the allegations that the source of the information in the article came from the internal revenue service and remote this dude. he founded so concerned about the upper crust of american society, not paying their fair share. well, that was before the league, he is what his office is concerned with. now. any unauthorized disclosure of confidential government information by a person has access is illegal. and we take this very seriously. and the i r s. are

referring the matter to the office of the inspector general, the treasury inspector general for tax administration, the f b. i and the us attorney's office for the district of columbia, all of whom have independent authority to investigate all the talk about is how the persecution machine is in full bounty hand mode off to whoever leak the figures and completely ignoring the substance. i think there's a few reasons why authorities you're focusing on the data release and not the content. what explanation is that, you know, they're concerned about the possibility that they're complete. tax return is of politicians will be released next to many members of congress are very rich landers . i don't know the possibilities. they're not saying anything is because there's nothing to say. i mean, there's numerous tax advantages for the super wealthy. they're intentionally within the tax code. they're perfectly legal and yeah, some of them are known by and used by the political leads as well as successful business b. and yes, most of those hundreds of billions in equity. it's not like jeff basis has

a scrooge mcduck style dungeon with mountains of dollars. but with an average us household paying sometimes 10 times more than they do in taxes, the system just doesn't look so good. always good to see scrooge mcduck in the news. now, european football, governing body has back tracked on its previous full approval of ukraine's controversial kit for the euro. 2025. in a statement to r t u a f. a said the slogan, glory to the heroes must now be removed from the player shirts. ortiz constantine rush, coff explains why. first of all, this is quite unexpected. move from the way for the band, the use of this particular slogan on a newly unveiled kid of team ukraine for year 2020. because at 1st they approved it and they changed their mind only after public outcry and rti sans request. the way it's asking for clarification, why the main ruling body of european football let this happen and here their

response, you a for then carefully considered the recently added slogan on the inside of the color glory to our heroes. following further analysis, this specific combination of the 2 slogans is deemed to be clearly political in nature, having historic and militaristic significance. this specific slogan on the inside of the shirt must therefore be removed for use in you. a for competition matches. currently ukraine in football shirts have to captions on them glory to ukraine and glory to the heroes. the problem is that these phrases have dark history, dating back to world war 2, when it was used by ukrainian nazi collaborators to greet each other. the slogan on the inside, the one that now has to be removed is glory to the heroes. because as they explain, the combination of that with the other phrase can be deemed to be politically loaded or to ukraine, which is seen on the outside of the shirt. can stay the whole story around. the ukranian football uniform has kicked up some controversy with the russian football

union along with the russian foreign ministry among those. i've raged by the design . this is another, it's hand by cave state propaganda to consolidate in the public consciousness slogan that many korean brought associate with the ukranian is sergent army lead based upon bundy era. and there are crimes during the 2nd world war. there is another thing about this. sure. it worth mentioning there is a map of ukraine on it would show its crimea as part of the country you creating football authorities defended their decision, saying this will strengthen the players. they will quote unquote, fight for the whole of ukraine. now the thing is that the peninsula became a part of russia back in 2014 after referendum, which saw over 95 percent of the population voting in favor of the reunion. but the russia, ukraine as well as western countries, said that they don't recognize, developed, but given the context put in an image of a contest to region on a football jersey can be also seen as to have some political message to it. that's

according to several russian football officials and even russian president spokesman dmitri passing off, who insisted that sports must stay out of politics by the way. for said that they have nothing against the map euro 2020, indeed kicks off in room tomorrow night and football found flock to stadiums across europe. the world health organization is urging people to remain vigilant. it's launched information campaign alongside unicef, highlighting ways to reduce the risk of coven one to you infection there, warning that despite the tourism sector now, slowly reopening, people still need to exercise caution when traveling and avoid confined or crowded spaces. my colleague, rory sushi, i spoke with rob butler, director of the w h o regional office for europe. he said people need to be in mind the optic in cases last summer. last year we were in exactly the same place. and we saw a phenomenal resurgence covered following the summer. so this time we want to really

take that lesson. there are only 400000000, i say only 400000000 practicing dosage administered in the european region. that's basically represents about 28 percent of the european population that are vaccinated with one dose of vaccines. so with bar from safe, we've just got to be so sensitive to be able to change our restrictions and responses in the course of the, of the epidemiology. as we see this academia, l, g emerge. and in the past, i think it's hard to say many member states, i've been slow to respond to that as early signals. the summer suns campaign is essentially all about people staying safe. it's clear that we're all very excited. someone come, we want to be together. we want to celebrate, we want to celebrate around certain tournaments, gatherings, even festivals that are taking place. but it's important that we do so in a safe way. people have already sacrificed so much over the past year and more. you

know, kids missing out on schooling. millions of jobs lost. if the restrictions continue, do you think it's possible that could be some sort of fatigue, fatigue is happening. it is natural. we can't do anything about it in the sense that it's going to happen in any prolonged situation. crisis situation, such as refined selves at the moment. we've understood a double check with our member states with the country in europe. but this is all about how best we understand people engage them in the solutions that we're creating, allow them to live life, but reduced risk, and also acknowledged the hardships because boy that's been hardships the u. k is education, secretary has slammed the behavior of some oxford university students as simply absurd for they took down a portrait of queen elizabeth the 2nd from their colleges, common room claiming they find it offensive. since the quote represents the

country's colonial post, the president of the college said the picture was removed after a votes, which itself was the initiative of the students. he added it should be up to the student body to decide on such issues. however, one committee member who argued against the motions that effectively counseling the queen sent out a dire message. the removal comes as the british head of state, prefers the mark 7 decades on the throne. next year, we put the incident up for debate. the queen is the figurehead of our country. so i think it's a great, really, really great shames, come to this about the queen and also wherever the stuff that you speak to. now everybody feel that the queen, but that's something that they don't believe in. their colonialism represents inherited well, systems lack of memory talk to see. so if they don't want that they happen being disrespectful to the queen. i think there's another of this kind of talk of disrespect and even though you respect, that's not

a 2nd piece. the comment that is what has caused a prince was not that they making to make them feel welcome. it is the fact that it was the slides on the queen, the saying that she represents the clarity will pass and that's why they remove the pitch the portrait. there was no reason for them to causes fuss. they could just remove portrait, but instead of going public and making this new pretty vile insult to up to the queen, they made their vote. they took the portrait down. i think that people need to just respect that. and if it hadn't been blown up in the news of the way it was, there wouldn't be this great thing about it. i probably did so much. so any comments about a portrait, whereas the outrage being about the queen, who am please charles, you've looked over 1000 laws in the past and been able to to change some of them. i think we're going talk about mark receive. let's start with that. i don't think

there's extreme culture extremism in, in the universities, but they should be freedom of speech and respect for different views. that's important. there shouldn't be in my, in my humble opinion sent to ship, imposed by by stopping some speakers just because they don't like they're not liked with some of their views. as long as they're not extremist views, that i would never encourage amman in south west front. so it's been sentenced to 4 months in jail for slapping a manual micron in the face. the incident happened earlier this week. you may remember when the french leader was trying to drum up support for his pre election campaign. the keys being given a 4 month sentence behind fours, but in fact, the total sentence was 18 months 14 months and that will be suspended for the next

few years now based offense. so a so committed against somebody in the public authority could have seen him behind bars for 3 years and find a 45000 years. some people may think that this is potentially lenient. however, thought sentence comes with other conditions. for the next 5 years, tara will not be allowed to hold any weapons here in front. he will be deprived of his civic. right? so things just voting for the next 3 years and he will be banned from exercising or being in the public office as well. as that, the judge ordered that he had to undergo work over the next 2 years and also needed psychological care. now, taro spoke at length to the court on thursday, answering many questions that the judge posed. he described himself as a patriot and he talked about what was going through his head at the time when he

slept president michael in the call when we were waiting, we planned to do something striking to challenge him on political matters to take a yellow vest or french flag, but we changed our minds well no point in the court hearing, did he dispute that she had just sorted the president of the french republic even describe. * that assault as being a role the violent law. and he said that the point where he did it was filled with disgust that seeing president black calling. when i saw his sympathetic and lying gaze, which wanted to make a voter of me, i was filled with disgust. i think my reaction was a little bit impulsive, but my words had an impact on crohn and all the yellow vests and the patriots. he had quite a lot to say about president mackerel, saying that he represented the downfall of the country. so he talked about people feeling injustices under president michael's mandate. so what do we know about this

28 year old book, quite a lot from not court hearing today, much of what he said confirmed of what we've been hearing in the french press for the last few days, including the fact that pictures at his home were found as him dressed up as well because i asked him why that was. he said it was for showing his girlfriends, his friends, he described it as being a bad joke. he admitted to the court that he had given a copy of his memoirs. mine counts to a friend as a gift. he talked about the fact that he accessed illegal world war 2 sites. these are the filter sites which deny you the holocaust. and he said it wasn't because he was a revisionist of history, but he didn't approve of censorship. and because they was sensitive, he wanted to go and see them and she talked about his links with the yellow vessel quite a myriad of information coming out in the court today. meanwhile,

president michael had spoken for the 1st time about this assault. he said it was important to put this in perspective in a pinch of salt, but he did describe it as being violent and foolish. we must not pretend this incident was anything more than an isolated act. there are people in society to day who can be violent at one time or another. now there was a 2nd individual arrested. falling back on president miko not alleged the assaulting president michael, but for allegedly filming the incidents and putting it on and twisted off the see he's not to come to court until next year. and he faces all the charges. mentoring, following a range on his home, where there have been allegations he held illegal firearms. but for the moment, damian taro, who is the man who slapped president moscow and assaulted him, while mac was on his tutor from sally. this week will now be off to jail. to spend

the 1st of the next month behind boss till the come in the program. european lawmakers push for a sanctions against bella. ruth, over the diversion of a ryan or a plane. they're also pointing the finger up. russia were enough after this, the short i me ah

ah, i use the here with our annual summer solution where we know not a problem, but on the solution the the, the, the ah, look in the european parliament has passed a resolution calling for further sanctions on bella ruth, over the recent diversion of a civilian aircraft from e, you earth space. the document also calls for measures against russia for supporting

this the european parliament reminds president putin of the consequences of further supporting the regime of alexander lucas shanker, highlights in this context, the importance of introducing further sanctions against the russian federation for its role in supporting the by the russian regime, the european parliament calls for an urgent investigation into this unprecedented act of state terrorism against some e. u. registered civilian aircraft. such an investigation should explore the possibility that russian nationals played a part in the terrorist acts perpetrated by the bell. russian regime a recap of what happened on may 23rd, a ryan or a flyer from greece to lithuania was forced to make an emergency landing in belarus . over a bomb threat turned out to be a hoax. 2 people were then taken off the plane, the rest of the editor of a bell, russian pro opposition, telegram channel, and his russian girlfriend. european countries responded by bolling flights to and

from bella ruth and ordering plains to avoid the countries of space flames of a russian role in the diversion of the aircraft of not so far being backed up by any evidence. now, the criminals denied any involvement. we got reaction on the resolution from martin dozer and a member of germany's left party to playing russia for something red. so no evidence this way, you can go forward, but it will not lead to a dialogue. all this will not lead to strengthen. once we all shall claim to be sure thing to international law and resort thing to human rights that are that different economic type than to the european union. so it will not help the civilian so much. but i think it was even strange to look at jackal and it will not lead to kind of regime change which is wanted by the union. we shall go deeper into an i don't like this when we see that the european union and the us try to do

color revolution and ukraine and then georgia and what now and better sanctions are part of that. and this is the contrary of a dialogue and as well, the person who was put into prison from the aeroplane was someone who was working with the rec, recommend, which is a passion, recommend in the crying. and he was a blogger. so i think it's not the right way to bring down a plane to, to get to get to a person like that human rights one, she's urging g 7 countries to stop subsidizing the oil industry. in a report, the group pointed out the rich nations continued financial support for fossil fuels, despite pledges to the country. that message comes out of a group of 7 summit which gets underway in the you can friday with climate change high on the agenda. the nations in attendance of old pledge to drastically reduce

the reliance on oil and gas. but together they have invested more than $1809000000000.00 in fossil fuel projects. since the start of the panoramic, that's substantially more than their investment in green energy. nevertheless, us climate invoice, john carrie remains update. he's claiming pollution can be cut without any drop in living standards. you don't have to give up a quality of life to achieve some of the things that we know we have to achieve. that's the brilliance of some of the things that we know how to do, and we'll do. an earlier i discuss the continued reliance on oil and gas with a puddle of guest. we've got rich nations promising to slush emissions, but they're still investing billions in fossil fuels. why we're going to do with economics at the end of the day, renewable energy is been coming down in price and quite substantially over the years. but, you know, particularly in america,

bottom fuel or what very well and of course, the 2nd biggest producer of carbon emissions in the world. and so a little bit to do with economics, i don't think that we can achieve anywhere near the savings in carbon and change the trend of what's happening in global climate change that we need to without massive changes in the way that we consume. and that doesn't necessarily mean a negative change. i think we need to adopt from these technologies more quickly and some of those cry change and putting in place more quickly. i just don't think it's happening fast, you know, and i just don't think that we can keep our reliance on fossil fuel and tackle climate change. the 2 things, it's not compatible. the global economy is on the gas and will continue to move as well. in the future. i

transition out of renewable energy cannot shut. she and we can you hear me? is that what i guess is that the about a mission by 2015, even 200. busy the motion is going to happen. so the money will continue to mean and get, as i say, when through the 21st century and far beyond that, when you look at consumption in the west, in the g 70 economies, it's vastly high, you know, of electricity and calls and, and the demands fossil fuels are there, i mean, we can sing goods, you know, computers a left or lights the left don't over the place,

so there's so much we could do better before we preach the countries. but the countries are getting richer themselves. a key pledge from the g 7, which takes off on friday, incidentally, is to limit the rising global temperatures to one and a half degrees celsius. but that goal is based heavily on technology that isn't available right now. will technology catch up in time to make these plans even possible only with a lot more investment than is that we've seen happen now. so things like carbon sequestration on not viable now. and things even give developments. we've seen hydrogen all very, very promising. and, and technology thought they come slot together so that the innovation received in hydrogen to some extent, tackle some of the storage issues that we see that we can capture from energy from renewables, more, more sustainably. and then we can store the energy and distribute much more

efficiently. unfortunately, that technology isn't, isn't where we need it to be. and it can cost a lot of money to get it where it needs to be. the united states is due to complete its paula from us gala style in 3 months time. but it's reportedly keeping open the option of her strikes beyond birthdate if couples in danger of falling to the telephone. and the secretary of state has even admitted it's not a complete withdraw. i don't think that the fact that our forces are withdrawing one. we're not withdrawing. we're staying the embassy staying. our programs are staying. we're working to make sure that other partners stay. we're building all of that up and whatever happens in afghanistan, if there is a significant deterioration. insecurity, that could well happen. we discussed this before. i don't think it's going to be something that happens from a friday to a monday. so i wouldn't necessarily equate the departure of our forces in july or

august or by early september with some kind of immediate deterioration in the, in the situation. the u. s. military says it's taken more than half of its personnel of ghana them since april. the polite was supposed to be completed on may 1st after a 2 decade presence in the country. but joe biden pushed the deadline back to september 11th, which will mark exactly 20 years since the 911 terrorist attacks that led to the u . s. war on terror. the war activist brian becker thinks the latest warnings from the pentagon are essentially the mission of the feet. this report indicates that there is a fierce debate going on within the pentagon and within the administration. and one would expect them to be in debate because by exiting afghanistan finally, which the us should do. and so also an acknowledgement that the u. s. has lost the

war. if the u. s. has been bombing taliban positions while it was occupied with large numbers of military forces and u. s. military bases in afghanistan for 2 decades. and that did not defeat the taliban. why would the resumption of air strikes after the u. s. is gone? why would that be effective militarily? so what's happening is, the pentagon and the by the ministration are now pointing fingers and debating and trying to provide some semblance of a plan b when they leave. and should the country fall to the taliban? if in fact, the afghan military can't sustain itself, which is very likely, the fact of the matter is the u. s. has lost the war, and the u. s. is leaving, which they had to do eventually. but it's never easy for politicians or generals to take responsibility. thus the proclamations by blinking and others that somehow us present will still remain. i don't think so. brian becker finishing or bulletin

more great programs just around the corner. we are going to the shortest breaks 1st to stay with us if you can. thank you for doing so. the the the hi welcome to the kaiser report, imax taiser with stacy herbert here with our annual summer solutions where we dell not on the problems but on the solutions they think, hey, right, well, i want to throw this question to tysons.
