suggests us media is the world's least trusted oxford university. found that's been a rapid loss of faith in recent years, especially during the pandemic. ah, hello. when you tuning in, welcome to the weekend from the international in moscow. my name is colleen bright . here's what we are a trust for you. this our, a coalition of countries led by china calling for the united nations to probe crimes against indigenous people in canada, saying the government that should move forward instead of upholding surface justice and making a verbal apology. the initiative comes after the $751.00 unmarked graves were discovered at the sight of a former catholic residential school. the chief of a local 1st nations group says, indications are that the graves are those of children. it's overwhelming by the

amount of gravesites found and it's very emotional and mentally 3 eating on the fact that these are one meter by one meter found on mark grape sites indicating that they weren't full adults yet. we have always knew these grades. this great site existed this on my grave. it was policies in the 1800s, early 19 hundreds of this, this, this country. the gruesome find, comes weeks after the remains of $215.00 children were found at another residential school in british columbia. a grim reminder of the gates of discrimination and abuse, which indigenous communities suffered in canada. back then, the religious authorities took those children from their families to those institutions with the aim of assimilating them into society. 2 8 8 8 i. 8 8

didn't do you mean sir? did you have was that it wasn't you today that was going to be the target, the victim. you know, you weren't going to have to suffer any form of humiliation. he learned to cry anymore. he did get harder, and yet you learn to shut down. ah, 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. so. 8 i used to him, i tried to trying a night 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 very long time. until i was 16, i held everything in and didn't tell anybody for 20 years. of the canadian prime minister called the discoveries, a shameful reminder of systemic racism, encouraging others in the country to learn from past mistakes. chemist alone says that it was genocide against indigenous canadians with residential schools brainwashing his people for decades. this is genocide. my my ancestors had a beautiful way of life here. we accepted and agreed to a treaty relationship with the crown. we did not ask for all of this to happen for 5 generation residential school had one goal. and that was to brainwash my people to stop in our life of how we had it for many generations to accept

a life that we didn't know based on the canadian way at one time. and so now today as a leader where the colonizing and where strengthening our self and genocide is where you try to eliminate and mentally we were, they tried to eliminate us. and today we are still resilient. we're still here and we are getting stronger one day at a time. police in paris has cleared a makeshift migrant campaign in the center of the city, which was set up in protest against the lack of accommodation provided for refugees . human rights group say thousands of people still live on the streets after a huge camp. and kelly was closed in 2016 activists demanding permanent housing solutions from the government. but it seems the message still isn't getting through to the authorities. charlotte to bend ski reports next from paris. in this latest

sped to draw attention to that play around $300.00 migrant and they supposed to have set up campaign. right in front of paris is historic and real. they say they all fed up with inaction on the part of the authorities to find a solution to that housing crisis. only people, the more this is a problem of the french studied have any repeat problem. perhaps there is no european country that would really like to receive refugees. we had to demand shelter for all those remain of the street. most families with children, including babies, and accompanied miners from other countries. they don't belong on the street. many of those have all mothers with young children because it's not after good pregnant . i called the emergency house several times until i gave birth and done every week i was put somewhere on the table. always watching my children outside. i am tired. does. there isn't a king. okay, playing public areas like this has become

a strategy employed by groups like maybe do me, make sure camps like this effect off and then are often brutally cleared away by the authorities. amount of food used in doing so has come under severe criticism. the earlier this year around 500 migrants were taken in by the state. the authorities here in paris have also apparently cooled on the state for more action. fearful that the log scale comes at once and play the city will return. all of this comes, of course this european new leaders have been meeting in brussels with migration

being a whole issue of them. the president of the parliament says the current situation is scandalous, concealing, but people added it. every time a boat arrives, what happens in brussels? i don't know. the commission starts making phone calls, asking who can take a 100 migrants who can take 50? who can take mine is in, i mean, the situation. how can it be subject to this volunteer based mechanism? it's scandalous, but again, there was no big breakthrough. and as the number of people trying to reach your fees on the rise again, it seems that they could soon be even more arriving on european shoes. and just like the people here finding themselves homeless, charlotte evening, sky, all see paris of the days of billionaires paying next to no tax in the united states may be number does now

a proposal to severely limit tax free retirement accounts where the super rich can hold vast amounts of that cash, untroubled by levies. it was revealed this month in the countries wealthiest people can legally pay little or even no income tax. the debate was initially fueled by the recent prison cell, death of anti virus software pioneer john mcafee, who was wanted by the u. s. for tax evasion. he was described america system as unconstitutional. hipa drank of follows, the money trail this weekend. what would make you bear to have the slightest of thoughts about skipping on paying taxes, which would automatically make a person criminal maybe out or unfairness of the tax system when the rich and powerful pay the government close to nothing. while the poor are burdened with agonizing percentages fairly, that can not be the reality in a country as exceptional. and a good way they say as the united states, bernie sanders, who twice ran for you as president, isn't so sure. we have

a tax code in this country that allows multi billionaires to pay nothing in federal income tax that is outrageous. it is time for them to pay their fair share. voices calling the american tax system. unfair, flawed or outright rigged, grew louder this month after league files of the us tax authority, the rest showed some billionaires were turned laughable. shares of their income to the government. some of the more extravagant opponents of the tax code like anti virus pioneer, john mcafee, had been sounding the alarm or even waging war on the system. for a long time. this week, he was found dead in a spanish prison after his extradition to america was approved. the official cause of death is suicide. the i r. ash was after mcafee, for big bucks. i have not filed a tax return for 8 years. why taxation is illegal. i pay tens of millions already and receive jack in services. i'm done making money. i leave off of cash for mcafee

incorporated. my net income is negative, but i am a prime target for the iris. here i am. it called taxation theft and unconstitutional, went as far as comparing the i r. s with nazi germany's part of military s. s organization. probably a bit too far indeed. but has debts will definitely aggravate the debate on how fair the system is. again, with people who are even considered part of the establishment, speaking out aggressively. a fundamentally broken system rewards jeff pays off the world's richest guy with another 70, a 1000000000 more money than any one person could ever need. while amazon workers work at breakneck pace and get no paid sick leave, our tech system is rigged for billionaires who don't make the fortune settle income like working families to the evidence is abundantly clear. it's time for a wealth tax in america to make the alter reach,

finally pay their fair share. on the current sex go jim basis will probably be on the moon before he bays. and if federal texas tech code is fundamentally broken, it is more a when the wealthiest in this country based 0 in texas, is stand, the reach pay their fair share. right, this brings me back to the i r. s leeks, and some of the highlight in the math done by the journalists, there is no need to introduce guys like towards source healing mosque. jeff bezos right. in the years 2014 to 2018. the head of amazon paid less than one percent of acquired wealth and taxes toward sora paid no income tax at all. for 3 years in a row, you and musk who true champion. if we take this company with a bit more than 3 percent in the years that i mentioned, so how do they get away with it? fully, legally, capital gains is not considered income. so capital gains when you have an asset and that asset increases in value. and if you don't sell the stock or usa of

a stock in the stock increase in value, you don't sell the stock, then you don't really have any cash. i mean, it would be a little bit absurd to, to tax the change in value that hasn't been turned into any kind of into any kind of money. will lead to be absurd to turn to, to treat that as income just to compare the median american household earned about $70000.00 in a year and paid 14 percent in federal taxes. people who are making $70000.00 a year should also be paying 0 taxes. the fact that billionaires are not paying taxes, that's a good thing. the middle class should also not be paying income taxes. the fact is, if the united states could just cut spending $992.00 levels, we could eliminate the income tax for everybody. we don't need an income tax in the united states at all. we have many other sources of income for whatever bare necessities we need. and most of the things that the,

that the government spends money on our luxuries or nonsense. we can get rid of all of that spending and then make the tax rate 0 for everybody. and so the growing numbers really think this is absolutely unacceptable. do you get the frustration to when it comes to trust in the media, it seems the united states is falling way behind. there's also been a sharp fall in the number of viewers and readers according to a major study by britain's oxford university. the annual poll of almost 800000 people covers news consumption and $46.00 markets around the world. it also now includes india, indonesia, nigeria, and columbia for the 1st time. the thing is, the us that's got the lowest level of trust of any country surveyed just 29 percent . the u. s. is one of the few countries not to have seen an increased interest recently. night collapse marked a massive drop that in just a few years just 4 years ago. take a look at this. almost 4 and 10 americans still had trust in the news organizations

. research say the decline. this is related to coverage of the pandemic during donald trump presidency. when outlets were divided over what the government was doing. journalists and the host chris hedges says the united states media now puts pleasing its audience above telling the truth. the commercial model of the us media is to cater to a specific demographic with the rise of the internet and all turn. it is sources. these traditional news outlets could no longer reach abroad audience because they didn't have a monopoly. and therefore, they decided to go after a particular demographic. and now what you've done is pit demographic against demographics. whether it's m s, nbc fox news, cnn, they become partisan catering to their particular demographic and what it wants to hear. but often at the expense of the truth. the oxford university findings

confirmed that americans are deeply divided about each media outlet. for instance, almost as many distrust cnn as much as trust the left leaning network. think it's almost identical for it's rivaled m s m, b, c. and fox news stuff is one of the worst trust ratings of them all. chris hedges accuses them of being a sham of journalism, driven by business interests. it's going to get worse because the commercial model . and these are commercial enterprises depends on not only catering to that a particular demographic, but also demonizing the other demographic. while these media outlets are designed to polarize the public, because commercially, they're designed to loop back to feed back to their viewers, or listeners or readers what it is they want to hear their own proclivities, their own prejudices. and that's the commercial model that's been created.

it's kind of, you know, hate versus he, whether that sean hannity, one side, or rachel mat on the other. they all do the same thing. but it's not journalism. it's just, you know, per, last or vaudeville masquerading. his journalism you know, with r c for moscow, russian aid and security support flows into war torn syria where a few amount of terry and crisis and the violent struggle against terrorists is still ongoing. next, the syrian foreign minister talks to us live from damascus. don't go away the the for the 1st 9 months, there was no improvement in the virus. it jumped out fully made. now that is

a real sign of what's called gain function work in ghana function where you take a virus, you want to make it more lethal. so exposed to human eyes mice, it makes many, many, many, many, many cycles. and in just a few months, you get something that appears to be evolved over years. and the fact that this, when this came out, was all ready adapted for new human transmission. it's again an unprecedented, ah, join me every thursday on the alex simon show. and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport. business. i'm show business. i'll see you then. me the, the, the, the

ah, logan to a brushes, latest make intercept. the jets have been deployed to syria as part of an ongoing security and aid package. the russian navy and air force have also been holding exercises in the eastern mediterranean, among a host of other war plains at the drills. the mig $31.00 jets are equipped to carry rushes state of the art hypersonic, ballistic missiles which can travel at 10 times the speed of sound with a range of almost 2000 kilometers and water and syria remains in a humanitarian crisis right now and faces a continuing struggle against terrorists in the northwest and it live province. there's also the thorny issue of cross border aid supplies. the un and western countries maintain that the bible hardware crossing from turkey is the best solution for over a 1000000 syrians living in the north west. well, moscow insists there are alternative routes including through the capital damascus

. these issues are expected to be addressed during an upcoming piece, talks in the catholics down next month. what we're doing now live by syrian foreign minister fido dads, foreign minister, welcome to our to thanks for taking the time to talk to us this afternoon. what do you make of the western and u. s. policy regarding the cross border aid issue? thank you very much. i can say, i think this is a pure hypocrisy. this is another attempt to help the terrorist groups and to provide them with the all necessary materials to prolong the terrorists war against syria. in fact, a decision was adopted in 92016 making for entry points and to syria. one from jordan, one from iraq,

12 from dirk. the last, before the closure of the recent one by the hour was about to sit up. we believe that the, the, these cross border activities are direct violation of the sovereignty of our country. an attempt to send with the so called mandatory and assistance arms and all supplies to the pillars, to groups and you know, and live. there is just a designated organization on the list of the groups by the united nations security council. we are opposed to such a thing and we have told all these countries directly or indirectly, that syria will allow our monetary assistance to go to the people who need and

humanitarian assistance, but not to the people who are described that as tutors. secondly, the wisdom counselors are really careful about syrian citizens. they should lift their sanctions because these sanctions and what we call unilateral course of measures adopted by wisdom countries and by the united states are killing the sudan people. they are not allowing us even to import medical instruments, not to mention foods and other necessary materials for the protection of the laws of the lives of innocent citizens. so is that no part of the us claim that it is helping civilians? that's what it says. it's doing and that it's trying to combat terrorist organizations in that stricken part of the world. the no part about that the syrian

government, except the only solution, is to withdraw the turkish troops from atlantic and to combat tutors to groups and to allow the city and also it is to control and live and to provide the people there with the provisions they deserve with food with other materials to make their life more humane. so i think what the united states is campaigning for the last 5 months, at least, to allow this cross border point to remain open is to violate the sovereignty of syria to prolong the war. the terrors war against syria and to stop and the movement towards achieving the unity and territorial integrity of the country. for a minister, you mentioned the western sanctions a moment ago. could you expand on the effect that those sanctions are having on

syria's civilian population, especially more than a year into a pan? then frankly, frankly speaking, this is disaster. us. they have taken all rights of the shooting people to i mean just satisfy the needs of those who are they are supporting actors to groups in syria, their agents in the country. and the mere presence of these forces from this comes with the united states in the north east and other countries in the northwest, the united states. and that one is a very clear manifestation that they're not just, this is not allowing anything to come to syria. so this is devastating. in fact, many of the poor people are suffering because of these sanctions which are taking

all the city and people hostages. more than 95 percent of students are affected by these sections. and particularly children and women who are not being able to either receive monetary assistance from their own government or to receive. i mean what their government can buy them from international markets. because the sections of the united states are and western countries are not allowing any country in the world to give even medical supplies to the people at the united states and also its european allies have called into question the recent election in syria that saw president a sad, reelected, i'm presuming that skepticism wasn't a surprise to you, but what's your response to it? this was a big lie. i am sure our elections were so far better than their elections.

if you review how these elections were conducted, you will see millions of syrians going to the voting pores and boxes inside and outside syria. we reconfirm that it is that act of the shooting people to elect their own representatives to elect their own president. we are not waiting for the united states to give legitimacy to our leadership, because the sudan people has already given legitimacy to its elected the president . these elections, as you have seen, as the world has indeed seen, where better than those elections in the united states. when people attack the congress and when the president trump, the former president of the united states, does not even recognize that result of these elections. the entire world has seen

the city of people going to the boxes and casting with 100 percent freedom. their votes for their leadership. i mentioned the context on page talks resuming next month. is the astronaut format proving to be an effective mechanism. it is the most effective mechanism is attended by government and the opposition is attended by come to support the government by a country that supports the other side. in fact, most recent developments, positive results, positive developments and syria have proven that the format is the best format for finding a political settlement to the syrian crisis. in addition

to the reality that we are taking part in the you on sponsor talks on the syrian constitution. meantime though, of course, there are still us troops in syria, especially in the north of the country. how does damascus view their presence on syrian soil? we believe that they have to stop their infringement on the sovereignty of iraq because they are coming from the north of iraq. they have to stop their infringement on the territorial integrity of syria because they are illegally entering into syria. secondly, they have to stop stealing the syrian oil and the studio syrian wheat and other syrian property. and we believe they have to stop support of the terrorist groups because without american support for dash,

dash would have been eliminated long time ago. i'm not giving any information, but everybody in the north east of syria knows that the united states has moved recently. hundreds if not thousands of dash elements into august and into other parts of syria preparing them for more attacks. for more terrorist attacks against syria and other countries in the region. and what about closer to home, your neighbor? how would you assess turkeys role in a serious conflict? it has been destructive. turkey has supported, alters to groups. this has become a reality. they have condoned their activities, they have armed them. they have even provided them with chemical weapons to attack syria and acclaim. the syrian army has used chemical weapons against its own people,

which is a big lie and sponsoring their white helmets and so on. by 30, by the united states and by germany and the united kingdom. so the turkish rule has been very destructive, as i said, the support to give him recent support given to certain elements in the north west of syria along the border has shown that turkey is trying to give its own identity to syrians. they are changing the reality of the border. they are building even a university for syrians. they are changing the language, the arabic language used by syrians in as a medium of teaching. so we cannot.
