[000:00:00;00] a with i guess, spills on the streets is over $1000000.00 protestors against controversial pension reforms class for police across france that says the french president, defense is controversial, bill washington, but just support for creating a cost of a national army a 24 year need to lead forces button to belgrade, also this our no evidence that the chinese government has access to that data. they

have never asked us will not provide it. take talk, the testifies in u. s. congress that the chinese government has no access to uses private data. as washington claims the up is a threat to national security. with from moscow to the world, you're watching, the international. my name is peter scott and these the top stories at 2 pm, moscow time this friday. thanks for joining us. out of control. that's how some french people are described, violent cautious with police that have a ruptured across the country. that some news outlets likening the demonstrations to a war zone of a 1000000 protested to the streets against the controversial pension reform bill. the raises the retirement age to 64 from 62 heavily armored police have been using terry. gus, what kind of stuff? grenades on,

buttons to disperse. protesters ah was democracy has pushed aside concerns about police thought seeks calling the protest. his voice is illegitimate, or pressing on with funds to raise the pension age, inflaming public anger. but the apparently takes a different stance when it comes to protest in other countries. the crowd, whatever form it takes, has no legitimacy in the face of the people who express themselves through their elected representatives. and parliament revolution cannot be achieved on its own. it can be only conducted by the people in europe in the you must continue to

support the hundreds of thousands of bell russians who peacefully protest for their rights, their freedom and their sovereignty. i salute the courage of the hundreds of thousands of venezuelans marching for their freedom. in a very clear way, france condemns the repressions carried out today by the iranian regime. and we stand by these women. they are a sovereign people fighting for their freedom, listening to law call, trying to defend his decision to push through this particular law without a vote. you think that the french actually had a chance to express themselves through democratic charles. now remember the several yellow vest protesters had lost eyes as a result of french police action. we're talking here about france, whose recent leaders have been quick to back protests elsewhere. remember that former french president nicholas apathy praised the arab spring protesters a decade ago. and back to the resulting regime change of leaders like alcohol bag bo, of could, di, blah,

and mom are gadhafi of libya and lights are cosy. mccall has also cheered on protesters in other countries. so in the absence of the vote on the reform itself, protesters have continued to take to the street to express their upset and how the whole thing has been handled. so parents right now is basically a giant health scape of trash from the sanitation workers joining this strike, which makes for convenient tenure for protesters. so there are trash fires pretty much everywhere. tourists are getting a complimentary dose of tear gas to go with their fresh bye. yes. and also a free french revolution experienced tour of the french capital. so the increase of france's retirement age from steve to 64 years has been rammed through the french national assembly, not by democratic vote by, by french president emmanuel michaels prime minister elizabeth bon looking clause 49.3, the french constitution. now that clause permits the government to push through new

laws and very limited circumstances without any vote. and also cutting short any debate or discussion on the issue. so apparently popular protests are only legitimate if they aren't challenging the policies in action of mach home and is western bodies, makeovers positioning himself as the defender of democracy. but all he's really defending is the increasingly and democratic establishment in the news, washington has promised the self proclaimed republic of kosovo. it's for support in creating an army that will work closely with nato. well, that is, according to the u. s. ambassador to the nation, a so be prepared to march 24 years since nature led forces bombed belgrade. the u. s. fully support kosovo secured to force us comprehensive transition into a multi ethnic professional need to interoperable tutorial defense force. proud of her continuous and excellent cooperation. of following the bombing of serbia, the un gave permission for

a nate to lead international peacekeeping force to be formed in pristina with the goal of providing stability to the war on region. the mission consisted of both nato and non nato members, which are organized several joint exercises with local security forces test with non military functions. however, in 2018, christina announced his plans to change and transform the cost of security forces into a fully fledged army. despite objections from local serbian residence, moscow has long questioned castillo's independence and criticized the western bombing campaign. in 99 on the eve of the universe of the anniversary of nights was attacked, rushes far ministry spokesperson has cast doubt on the humanist reputation of the us and its allies. under the cynical guise of humanitarian intervention for $78.00 days, nato aircraft and navy struck the peaceful cities of this country. more than 2000 missiles were fired. $14000.00 bombs and other munitions were dropped,

including those containing depleted uranium. the same one that britain considers its standard for use the reputation of the collective west as some kind of peacemaker humanist, some kind of righteous man, was forever buried in yugoslavia. they were saying they were concerned about the human rights issues. i think for millions in the region also probably of serbia and part of what was once former yugoslavia soviet was battling and i'm seeing also led by the so called also innovation army or kaylee and us to bombs to be done. my fellow americans. today our armed forces joined our nato allies and air strikes against serbian forces, responsible for the brutality and coastal. it's expensive. the proverbial shore to thought is war. last 2 or 3 weeks. but the to the on for 70 days

operation allied force, that's what they call it. it. the word planes carried out the 900 in more air strikes during every day of 72 bombing campaign. which officially claim at least $758.00 civilian life. probably the more but sort of sources into the actual death was as if, twice the month into the police and uranium. and it's in, it says air strikes on this by this i was showing that children born after it can suffer severe consequences of this, especially in the cancer late in the, in this is very little or so has been done to all of those responsible to be accountable for this position. so this is what we're talking about. several types of cancer leukemia, throat cancer, thyroid gland, cancer, brain tumors, bone cancer, and several other types of cancer which are caused by depleted uranium. the world

health organization based in leone has proved this claim. they found the cause and effect relationship between cancer and uranium. more one or 2. i am not suing nato because of the financial gain. i'm suing them because i want to prove to the world that a crime against serbian people has been committed. the crime was committed by criminals in the nato alliance. i hope i will live long enough to see the success of this lawsuit. i am waiting to see the confirmation that the depleted uranium is responsible for what's happened to us. any more i will not keep on. we will never trust them again, and we will never forgive them for the children, the civilian casualties and the uranium. no, listen, i say they conducted the biggest ethnic cleansing of the serbian population and corporation cost of a home while it kept silent about it. and i'm here because it hurts me. my father is a wu veteran and i'm in violet. his sacrifice, everything for this state. according to the ocean brockovich, a serbian journalist,

the bombing of yugoslavia represented a precedence financial forces the parks to the, the so called the consumer independence recognition commissioner, organizations is closed. so this is the, this is the alternative path. how do or legitimize position of kosovo in international relations for us and nato, for the u. s, which was the global hagaman at the debt, the time that you m frame, what became too narrow, do that, oh, organizationally and politically. the u. s. did not want to seek a brewer from russia, china, or european countries for the dimensions all around the world. in this context, context that the canoe was larry and present that a president. net good, then be used anywhere else in the case of the ukrainian crisis. it will have added that the leave, the do escalation,

since it will not force the russian leadership to negotiate. on the contrary, it will leave the possibility for up, but as the cross it the one that has the broken lancer or mocking the anniversary of nato's bombing of yugoslavia. you can head over to r t dot com to watch our documentary on the events of those years. the shadow lights on the lives of people who came face to face with the war. today, our armed forces joined our nato allies and airstrikes against serbian forces. ah, the glove at the time of visit. okay, this is going from bad to worse grades night sky line again, lit by flames. nato insisted it strikes against the lava would go off

me the me as justice call stunning me. yes, you should know your bush is the last ticket to get me in. ready ringback me,

i the chinese government has no access to the private data of tick tock users. well, that's the position of the company. sio. as he was forced to defend the platform before us congress, what officials grilled him over face the popular up could be away from china to spy on us citizens despite no evidence presented to backup that claim. the chinese government has that data. wow. how can you promise that that will move into the, into the united states of american be protected here a congressman? i have seen no evidence that the chinese government has access to that data. they have never asked us, will not provide it let you know i've asked that. i find that actually preposterous . i have 1st looked in, i have seen no evidence of this happening. and in order to assure everybody here and all our uses, our commitment is to move the data in into the united states to be stored on

american soil by an american company overseen by american personnel. so we have the ceo of tick tock testifying before a u. s. congressional committee and explaining the great length, the tick tock goes to in order to protect the data of its users. however, these answers are not satisfying for many in the u. s. congress. in addition to that, there are concerns about problematic videos on tick tock depicting violence, suicide, drug use, and other harmful issues that a similar app which operates on the chinese mainland sensors. at this point in the testimony, we heard a rather harsh questioning of u. s. officials are where they pressed the seo of the tick tock corporation about why a similar censorship measure was not being used for content directed at the united states as was done with contact directed at the chinese mainland. now tick tock has

faced a wave of the allegations that it is somehow a mechanism for spreading chinese influence or spying on americans for the chinese government in 2020, at hired a u. s. citizen. as it's c e o, and the company has set up privacy protection centers, a transparency centers in both the united states and in europe in order to ensure the privacy and protection of its users in order to make clear that their data not being used for some nefarious purpose i, however, these answers have not been satisfactory to the u. s. government u. s. officials continue to hurl allegations against tick tock as we saw in today's congressional hearings. it's also worth noting that a 150000000 people use tick tock around the world, and that number continues to rise despite the heated allegations leveled from voices in the united states. however, a poll did indicate that 40 percent of americans would favor

a ban on tick tock. now there have been a number of us states that have passed a law for bidding tick tock from being used on government devices. we saw the scenes today in congress. the heated exchanges that went on so the controversy continues surrounding this social media app. legal and media unlist line old believes it's all social media platforms are equally vulnerable to data breaches, including those based in the us. but think tops just being picked on because it's chinese and this c e o acquitted himself splendidly better than anything i and i as a lawyer, i'm watching the way he answered the questions very, very well. may i ask you a question? i wish he would have said, madam congress, a person may i see your phone for a 2nd? do you mind if i see it? oh, you've got facebook, instagram, twitter, and you may have this in that. do you know where this data go collectively?

do you know where the servers are? do you know? no, you don't. there is, i don't when they say something, but there's a scrum as going on, right? so there's a, there's this idea. we're tick tock is the embodiment of all leave. why is tick tock in this was? i think the gravamen of this whole story. why is it substantially and significantly more dangerous in any other application? why is it? and there are 2 issues, content and the actual data capture. 2 completely different issues, concomitant issues, important issues, but separate and i think it was blurred. i think ultimately the tick tock, c, e. o one. a washington will ignore china's wanting to supply weapons to taiwan is a red line that's according to the u. s. sexier states on snape lincoln whether the p r c is said to you or to anybody that works. the state department, any of our diplomats that there are some sort of red line involved with us stepping up our formal turf now?

no one to the stuff they've ever tried to. anything like that of that's not something that we would obviously take into account. the comments come, i'm in a cooling in relations between washington and basing the u. s. previously warning repeatedly about it's red lines, but assuming they failed to see or even acknowledge the red lines of us. if there are any thoughts and an efforts by the chinese and others to provide lethal support to the russians and their brutal attack against ukraine, that that is unacceptable. again, that would be a red line. what i want to do with him when we talk is lay out what the, what, what kind of what each of our read lines are understand what he believes to be in the critical national interest of china. what i know to be the critical, interesting united states and determine whether or not they conflict with one another. we cannot have a situation where a chemical or biological weapons are falling into the hands of the wrong people. we

have been very clear to the outside regime but also to other players on the ground that a red line for us is we start saying a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around for being utilized. let a, we spoke to author, journalist, an activist thomas fuzzy. who says the u. s. is seeking to maintain his head gemini in the world. it just shows how delusional the u. s. has become the u. s. seems to think that it still lives in the a. well, the ninety's says, world war 2, the u. s. has pretty much been running the world as you would a mafia style racket, you know, resorting to exactly the same techniques that matthew results to control. a city extortion, bullying, blackmail violence. what it hasn't realized is that that world has changed. now. what used to be fed very powerful kingpin that controlled the entire city has now turned into an old,

slightly seen our man that doesn't control much of the city. i am much of the world any more. in fact, controls only a few small neighborhoods in that city, namely, you know what the so called collective west. that's because now you have countries that have stood up that are standing up against the u. s. power. i will knows that the so called rules based order was always a u. s. or west based order that's clear to everyone now. and so you know, it is idea. the us still things that it can make the rules that it can make everyone else abide by those rules as it has done for a very long time. just shows that the u. s. leadership at least is completely out of touch. with reality, the u. s. has again slammed human rights in india, citing challenges to freedom of expression, also praising the democratic values. the bind washington and you. deli ortiz, india correspondence from the sharma has more. biden administration's india's track

of g honestly seems a bit confusing. on one hand, the u. s. slams india for human rights violation in the country. and the other had, had said that had values it strategic partnership with the india appointment off the top. you as to feel matt in new delhi, the man and a garcia t he stand your has been marked by a series of scandal, and he has been appointed at the u. s. envoy in new delhi. now this appointment took place after a gas off to wheel that's been the longest gap ever. that india did not have a u. s. ambassador, but as far as this man and before we, before he got appointed done, he basically said that he wants to, in to fair in india's matter. never mind that his own tenure has been marked by a series of scandals. but i intend to engage directly with civil society. there are groups that are actively fighting for the human rights of people on the ground in

india that will get direct engagement from me. for me, these will not be after thoughts. i master's degrees and human rights international law. i've fought for human rights on 4 different continents. do we have your commitment that you will be a voice in regards to any discrimination against minority groups such as the muslim population within india? i would not only just bring it up, but it would not be something at the end as an obligation. it would be a core piece of what all the engaging mind and counterparts of confirmed with the boy anger doesn't need. does anybody interfering in a personal matter? and secondly, i'm from a man who was on years has been marked by os cds of scandal. he was the mayor of los angeles. there were number of daughters organized against him outside his residence as well. now, honestly biden speak of the u. s. ambassador to india is a bit of a question mark and the appointment diplomatic appointments usually don't won't

make headlines. this one did just because the choice off biden's administration rushes deputy foreign minister has confirmed that fox news host took acosta. and had made an official request for an interview with the demon puts in. that's something that carlson claims us intelligence discovered by spying on him. yamaha with didn't, or i can confirm that this journalist made such a request some time ago. our system is designed so that this kind of request is automatically reported to the presidential administration where it's considered in terms of the messages. i wouldn't be surprised if the national security agency or the federal bureau of investigation is collecting data from your smartphone right now of tucker carlson claims than if they topped his phone messages in order to sabotage his attempt to interview let him imputes in july 2021 though, says he contacted russia's deputy foreign minister, relates to received a call from a source who knew confidential information about the proposed interview. where are

you going to do interview putin? why wouldn't had it set up? i was working on it and they had broken to my text messages, the adding of an essay, broken deer signal cuz they admitted it really oh yeah. the us national security agency dismissed took a carlson's claim, saying that he's never been an intelligence targets of the agency. but it's one person accused of being a criminal intermediary by the an essay. grey's own journalist on he put on pill, says otherwise the legal for the, and as they to spy on the communications of us citizens. and pretty much as a result of the sweeping, domestic spying powers that were ushered in as a result of president george w bush's war on terror. those national security regulations were slowly walked back to the point that us authorities could claim it was okay to spy on the communications of a us citizen as long it was part of their overall effort to monitor the

communications of foreign government officials. and so in this case, it's possible that the essay was monitoring the communications of russian deputy foreign minister rog cobb. but the fact that an as an essay whistleblower came forward and told tucker that the u. s. government was actually planning on leaking his tax essentially unmasking his identity as a u. s. citizen, a journalist who was in contact with rob cobb in order to embarrass him and, and do this for political reasons. this shows the length to which these powers are getting abused us authorities are using these buying powers. they weren't actually interested in leaking this information because they believe that i or tucker, had in some way violated the law and had an inappropriate relationship with the

russian government. they were c simply seeking to embarrass tucker carlson to discredit him by implying that he was communicating with the russian or kremlin agent, me a u. s. citizen who has no formal relationship with the russian government or financially or otherwise. my and alan that i work for the gray zone is completely independent. we don't get money from states or even state funded organizations. and so they were using me in order to imply through innuendo that tucker was somehow speaking with russian agents in a way that was inappropriate. and then by extension, they were trying to de, legitimize any views that he takes regarding russia or the current war. and ukraine form of pakistani prime minister in franklin has claimed that washington's a foreign policy is dividing countries into blocks. you may the claims while speaking with russian returns the on going on the ground and he can watch the full episode on saturday. was in the meantime, has equates, he's

a how is it to view she gin being visiting moscow and a boat for pigeon. and she, heralding almost a new world order, which seems to be very different at 1st sight to that, that we've seen since 1945. i see, you know, great change is taking place. i mean, oh, goes to join and russia is one because it seems as if the u. s. this policy is just a pushing godrays into last a home just brought together iran and saudi arabia. i think that's one of the best developments as far as body sun is concerned, because iran is a neighbor and saudi arabia is one of our closest friends for years. so them together, easy tensions for us. we feel that it's a great step forward. but what i do not want these blocks developing countries

like us, you choose either one side or the other. because india has, i must have my india or policy their ideal non alignment when they were born warren countries, when rocks in the us sort of standards in making itself a country which is non aligned and, and their voice intent relationship. but everyone, and that's what i want august on to be in. well, that's all for now to be sure to check out our web sites all t dot com for all of the latest breaking news and updates. and in the meantime, we'll see you right back at the top of the hour. thanks very much in

ah by the middle of the 19th century, practically the whole of india had been under the rule of the british empire. the colonial authorities had imposed that heavy death bringing the people into poverty and were exporting natural resources. and moreover, these authorities absolutely had no consideration for the provisions of the local population, treating them like 2nd class citizens. the british were showing signs of disrespect even to those who operated with them. the fact of ignoring the religious beliefs of the hindus led to the mutiny of the sea boys, mercenary soldiers serving under the british crown. 3000000000 began on the 10th of may 1857 in the garrison town of may river, north of india. in the form of a mutiny. the rebels quickly took over daily. the heroic resistance of the indian people lasted for one and a half years. however,

the forces were not equal. the colonial authorities dealt with the rebels cruelly thine slaves. the boys were tied to the mouth of the cannon and were shot right through their bodies for the amusement of the public. these type of execution was called the devil's with the obliteration of the mutiny resulted in the death of 800000 inhabitants of india. however, the british empire never broke the free spirit of the indians and their will for resistance. both with disaster felicia,
