Morning thanks choosing out International Law from a world view center here in moscow one is kevin irwin here for next half hour with a monday morning update 1st and looking ahead a bit busy frances president tomorrow mccrone is set to welcome Russias Vladimir Putin to his summer residence later today on the mediterranean coast very nice the talks which are expected to focus on the crisis in ukraine syria and the persian gulf come ahead of the big g. 7 summit in beirut slater in the week sure do been ski reports oh what an idyllic setting for the 2 president s to meet a 4th overlooking the Mediterranean Sea port of break also has been an official french residents of the president since 1968 of course its not the 1st time that president mark warner has invited to this force its his holiday retreat and he did of course invite to reserve may the former u. K. Prime minister in 2000. 18 but this will be the 1st tete a tete hes had with president putin at that for what well many are saying the timing of this meeting between the 2 president s is very significant why is that well of course its just a few days before the g 7 nation leaders will be meeting in relatively nearby to be discussing global issues and many are saying that this could be the kick start thats needed to improve the reignite relations between russia and the e. U. So whats on the agenda today between him and cuomo and putin well of course the bilateral relationships with the e. U. And here of course in france but then also be discussing the syrian conflict ukraine and perhaps most importantly one of the most divisive issues all of the modern day is iran and thats because of course president matt corman President Trump are likely to be discussing that when they meet at the g. 7 meeting later on this week at those 2 of course the old best of buddies and now on the 2 different sides all of the divide when it comes to the reining in nuclear deal so a very important issue and it will be important for president michel and the russian president putin to discuss that and to see where they meet ita on that issue now among putin will be looking in this meeting to perhaps develop a deeper relationship between the 2 they 1st met back in 2070 not long after president macron was elected here in france they met in paris at the palace and that meeting got off to a bit of a shaky start but since then the 2 have met on many occasions deepening their relationship weakening our understanding of each other in fact in 2008 they met 5 times this meeting will be the 2nd meeting in 2019 so we are hoping that they will be deepening that relationship we know that the. So you have forged a better relationship over the past 2 years and we know that president mark owen is already agreed to attend the victory day parade in moscow in russia next year but the 75th anniversary of that parade so a very significant event in showing that the 2 are looking to increase their chemistry and to forge the deeper relationship between the 2 countries and hopefully improve that relationship between russia and the e. U. Another scathing attack on the New York Times accusing the publication of producing some of the worst journalism in history the latest outburst came after a leaked order your merge to the papers executive editor discussing how to cover the president and his administration in the wake of the russia gate scandal goes down of the story from the russian acid this message of the not too carefully ciphered in articles and reports has been overwhelming americans and the New York Times seemingly used all the power and authority of its Award Winning journalism to propagate the message. But then came the miller report something that was until supposed to become the fatal blow to Donald Trumps credibility rebound ricocheted and had the media back with the momentum of a boomerang for the New York Times it meant this we built our newsroom to cover one story and we did it truly well now we have to regroup and shift resources in emphasis to take on a different story this is part of a league transcript from dean baquet the New York Times executive. Im giving a speech in front of the papers authors this shift hes talking about is far from good news for trump because apparently now the newspaper is going to degrade him from a russian puppet to something arguably much worse a racist. Race in the next year is going to be a huge part of the american story and i mean race in terms of not only africanamericans and their relationship with donald trump but latinos in immigration work to the near times for 15 years i think that the New York Times has immensely damaged its credibility by trumpeting this narrative trump was a russian agent certainly within the last few decades one of the most egregious journalistic failures a terrible terrible failing and. I find it disturbing that dean baquet the executive editor of the New York Times what will even acknowledge it mr k. Also likes to put the New York Times on a pedestal for being one of the few remaining independent journalism sources out there except to believe that youd have to deliberately ignore the distinctive scent of partisanship reeking from the papers supposed new racism narrative donald trump publicly and unapologetically embraced a political strategy may hate racism and division hes a man who cosies out to the white supremacist has been about trying to divide us in a way that its been about trying to sell hate and division among us we have a president of the United States is a racist this is a guy who is worse than a racist he is actually using races tropes and racial language for political gain the newspaper might have begun to retroactively implement the changes since it recently changed the headline of one of its articles from this to this under the pressure from well the democrats so one thing is for sure race will be a huge part of the american story next year the president ial one what happened. The report did not deliver as the New York Times and much of the other Mainstream Media promised that it would and from that transcript you see that they are going to pivot to another kind of campaign against trump which will be focusing on is racism but none of this is journalism and some is a kind of switching of one moral crusade or self defined moral crusade with another their coverage of the russian the russian clues and story was a huge squat and during that story critics accuse them of ignoring other things that trump was doing so now after russia after the russia collusion story as flopped the times has decided to cover other issues like trump and racism but believe me in the ill do a very bad job. Theyll get a lot of basic things wrong and and probably benefit more than they will. Im sure New York Times once for a plot of that weve asked them for a comment as and when they do get by to as well let you know what i gotta say main time just let you know separate story but a bit late for the program but americas race debate separately set to a more Media Coverage mutilate f. B. I. Documents that show that the agency is increasingly worried indeed about the threat posed by a crowd across if a bit later in the program next. Years warnings intensifying about the possibility of a Global Climate catastrophe Germanys Green Party now looks to be enjoying a surge in support among its ambitious Environmental Policies its a pretty controversial plan to completely phase that domestic flights by overhauling the countrys rail system but most germans on board will pay for all of it takes a little. Germanys green policies being in full bloom in the polls of late one of the most recent policies they put forward is a Railway Revolution all trains on a tight schedule moving at a cheaper price waste that so why fight it with the ultimate aim of making the internal flights in germany i think of the past in the next 50 years by trying to city 5 who want to make domestic flights largely obsolete with all of that said to cost the states around 3000000000. 00 euro a year off the rail passengers think of the proposal i definitely would support the policy i think i drive to take the pain more often at the trains 3 than the plane yeah if the whole net truck would have to be in a better condition going by train is really expensive and its not very comfortable if youre doing a lot of traveling like me its nearly impossible to prove all the wrong to germany on the big 3 so. The moment theres no alternative forms of things im not a frequent flyer but in that case i would abstain from flying altogether. My last minute ticket from munich cost me 150 euro if i booked in advance it would have been cheap but if i booked for it to that sounds it would have been a fraction of that cost everybody wants to see travel be quick and cheap and bring them however how much of this plan is achievable and how much of it just for the headline. This would be a long way to go because it requires us investments in infrastructure and so far germany is struggling since years to complete right away in a structure brought 6. 00 to 21. 00 which was supposed to make flights obsolete in the south of germany by allowing for. To rain kind of train connections between paris and the end of. The broadsheet this delay to paris become twice as costly as a planned time so yes i ask myself how is it going to be put into practice. Here we are in munich now that journey took just short of 5 hours under the proposed plans all journeys would have to be completed within 4 and its not just by lowering train fare is that the hoping to get people to the plane and take the train its also by raising aspect is positive the plan is to put taxation on kerosene jet fuel on a level with taxation on petrol at 65. 00 euro cents a liter currently depending on the length of the fly passengers will pay up to around 40 euro in taxes according to calculations from the German Environment Ministry increasing kerosene taxes could raise as much as 7000000000 euro are new here at the main report in munich we found a real mixed bag of opinions when it came to getting people off planes and on to trains. It takes longer so i wouldnt want to say i was for so much that several hours i think it should be wise verse that should be better to invest in the infrastructure of the trains that federer cycles. Reliability better prices not going to take the train to bin laden where were going now. 10 hours pay like yeah the same of going took it was a given kerosene into consideration i think trains are better but not in terms of speed. But when the trains dont go away you need to the only option available is the cost germany has the highest level of call rhona ship in the European Union and the germans love affair with the automobile certainly not going away anytime soon peter all of a. Much more. Without International Break america mother living in saudi arabia who looks set to lose custody of her off for a court she simply to western coming up. You know world big partisan booty a lot and conspiracy its time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bath shouting past each other its time for Critical Thinking its time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. When lawmakers manufacture consent to public wealth. When the ruling classes protect themselves. With the famous merry go round. The one percent. We can all middle of the room 6. 1000000 real. 15 moscow time good morning next a story about america mother living in saudi arabia who set to lose custody of a 4 year old daughter after being told by a court that a lifestyle was simply too western theres more to this of course its after her exhusband Saudi National presented evidence to a court that she hadnt embraced islamic values and therefore wouldnt be able to raise their child sign a properly bethanie of hero whos 32 years old moved to saudi arabia in 2011 to work as university chip she then later married a saudi businessman with whom she had her daughter the couple then divorced the last year and then things started getting more complicated with vera accusing him of verbal abuse and drug use a claim he denies a saudi court then ruled against her and the deadline for appeal expired yesterday. The mother is new to islam is a foreigner in this country and continues to definitively embrace the customs and traditions of her upbringing we must avoid exposing zarina to these customs and traditions especially at this early age we spoke to catherine shutdown a Senior Analyst at the think tank she explained to us why the case was lost by the American Mother and have you women to begin in the kingdom to not have many rights just because and of course when it comes to custody cases it is very often the husband has priority and is given everything whereas the woman is giving nothing and i think that in this case they are just using her nationality and the flag she was raised in the west against her alleging that she has pulled an ethic and that she doesnt fit within the Islamic School at least the version that saudi arabia holds obviously. So rabiah has been repeatedly criticized over the years over its record on womens rights although theyre valuable even some improvements in recent years to. Its very difficult to say you know whether the prince is actually really genuine in his desire for wee flaws because they all coming so clearly. Or whether hes just some kind of a coarse met a claim to tried to do you know its Richard Riley or rollins Public Opinion you know in his favor as it was to truly trying to change what is going on in his society and we have to admit and this is not even an opinion its a fact that saudi arabia is running centuries behind everybody else when he calls to formulating what society is and how people relate to one another and the dynamics that goes on in the kingdom women. Because to get about 50 percent of society you cannot function as a state if you do not have to keep the creation the right to be to believe or even to choose for themselves. Even this morning has been a chilling mass murder in the western russian city of oh yeah now ask a teenage boy that was believed to brutally killed 5 of his family members before committing suicide and self police discovered their bodies on sunday morning. Hope its not such a total not that during the night he was sending his friend messages that he had already killed everyone and was going to the cell tower but they climbed it and is now just laying there under the tower of vision the day before we met he didnt say anything about his plans he was in a good forms finally he said he needed to go home.

Leaked f. B. I. Documents nixon revealed that the agency is doing racially motivated crime these days is a real serious Security Threat killam opens got more on the. There are many different threats that are being faced by americas men and women of the f. B. I. This point its Mass Shootings and terrorist attacks that tend to grab the headlines but they are facing another top priority that would be racial Violent Crime racially motivated violent extremism encompasses threats involving the use or threat of force or violence in violation of federal law in furtherance of political or social agendas which are deemed to derive from bias often related to race held by the actor against others including a given Population Group now lets be clear this is not some kind of political statement by the f. B. I. Its actually based on the data that they have collected what they refer to as white identity extremists and black identity extremists are committing crimes in rising numbers heres what they said about some racially motivated violent extremists are driven by a belief in the superiority of the white race and a perception that the u. S. Government is conspiring with jews and other minority populations to bring about the races demise although racially motivated violent extremists use force or violence in violation of criminal law in response to perceived racism and injustice in American Society or in an effort to establish a separate black homeland or autonomous black social institutions communities or governing organizations within the us its true that racially motivated Violent Crimes have been increasing across the United States since 2015 this trend has continued in 2019 even though the overall crime rate in the city is surveyed has declined. As the attack in El Paso Texas underscores the continued threat posed by domestic violent extremists and perpetrators of hate crimes were talking about a wide spectrum of racially motivated incidents and yes White Nationalism has no place in this country i can tell you the majority of people in this country from all walks of life all ethnicities and religions condemn White Nationalism so the f. B. I. See somewhat of a spike if you will a growth if you will and people being radicalized through White Nationalism but it is being addressed rather vigorously by the f. B. I. And other intelligence agencies but we have to be careful in this country to make sure that the f. B. I. And other intelligence agencies do not become politicized unfortunately because of the political atmosphere we now see in the United States there has been the politicization of the f. B. I. And presently the new u. S. Attorney general mr barr is addressing that as we speak exactly 25 minutes past the hour thats why some of the stories shaping up so far this morning so much more than a scientology theyll call with a quote are up any break a musical straight to mobile device here in moscow the set monday morning the 19th of august is kevin oh.

Spearing Dramatic Development only personally im going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful its very critical time to sit down and talk.
