This is the weekly here on r. T. International welcome to round up of the headlines that shape the week. Russia got a new Prime Minister this week after the previous comment stepped down there as admission fall president putins proposal to change the countrys constitution. But it shouldnt just to do not affect the fundamental basis of the constitution they move further in russias development as a lawful state. In homes the effectiveness of the countrys institutions to strengthen the role of Civil Society and to enable the Political Parties in the regions to make decisions vital to the countrys development. Are too strong to have takes a look at the proposed reforms and the reaction its already received in the west. Try explaining this led to boom and power as the office of president the media accuses of it seizing more power who couldnt control over russia but when putin gives up that power and hands it over to parliament at his own expense it is also because he seizing more control over russia 1st to discover this syndrome i name it paranoid putin a friend here and theres a real epidemic. Paranoid putin a friendly aside he is what he actually proposed to guarantee that no president ever wields as much power as he did including putin himself hes got 4 more years in office. This is unprecedented in a quarter of a century every constitutional amendment was designed to empower the president for example increase the president ial term from 4 years to 6 years or give the president the power to appoint prosecutors and now he turns it all upside down it used to be that hooten appointed the prime. Ministers Parliament Rubber stamp that now parliament appoints heads of government and putin rubber stamp set with no power object. According to the constitution of the Russian Federation the president leads only the state dumas consent to make official appointments the president appoints the cabinet hes deputy and the ministers are supposed shifting this power to the duma and also the approval of the russian government chairman and the chairman suggestion all the deputy Prime Ministers and federal ministers will have to be appointed by the president without the right to reject any candidates this is of course all subject to a popular vote if these passes russia will be a change country with a very different future russia is changing into a new face of democracy freedom and now the basis of the 1st. Time when the president limits his old how this is something in the later controlled country is not known at all then the president limits its own power and once you let the people there cite the new constitution many in the west see president putin is a mental power is the one that wants to remain in power for ever and so on and so forth but if you look at the reforms if you look at the proposals i see myself some reasons to find in these proposals some balance of power between the president power and the Parliament Power i see some ideas leading to a better modernization of the state very often it happens that. Many media make comments on amendments on laws on projects or reform and constitution we doubt knowing. In details what is the reform or the rules what are the proposals so i would suggest before putting forward so negative comments to study to understand while what talking about what is did reform announce it and then maybe we can make some comments now before that to pave the way the government handed in its resignation its worth mentioning it wasnt all that popular that failed on a number of fronts and meacham event if the now caretaker Prime Minister said himself its time for something new you have all heard the address of the russian president Vladimir Putin as president he outlined the major priorities of our work for the upcoming year but he also outlined a number of fundamental changes to the constitution of the Russian Federation these changes when they take place and this will be done after discussions and as was said they will significantly alter a number of parts of the constitution and change the balance of power if theres one thing we know about putin its that we dont know him he loves to surprise and there was no warning not even rumors that the country was about to be turned on its head we now have a new Prime Minister because ill miss in an unknown quantity hes largely stayed out of the spotlight for the past decade ahead in the federal tax agency and i must say he did wonders teaching russians to pay their taxes fact some would argue hes done too good a job it is now clear putin hangs up the gloves in 2024 he wont run for another term time change so does russia it is revolutionary change from this distance i would say that it gives more power to the parliament but it downgrades the importance of the Prime Ministership of the stability of iraq. Leadership quality which is not a separate issue has been won over the most positive aspects of World Governance in the 21st century. A newly obtained recording of a donald trump speech as undermining trust and washingtons justification for killing irans top general in footage obtained by c. N. N. The us president privately told republican donors on friday customs all money was saying bad things about america or that justification is far weaker and legally questionable than the official white house version thats all money it was planning imminent attacks on january the 3rd during a visit to baghdad salmoni it was killed by a u. S. Drone strike this unleashed a storm of tit for tat actions to around lunch retaliatory air strikes on u. S. Bases in iraq injuring 11 pentagon servicemen within hours iran had also accidentally shot down a ukrainian civilian airliner near tehran killing all 176 passengers on board it blamed us adventurism for the crisis u. S. Defense secretary mark us that trump had not presented to him with any evidence of the attacks supposedly planned by a slow money president didnt say when there was a tangible he didnt cite a specific piece of evidence what he says he probably he believes are you saying that it wasnt one i didnt see one with regard to 4 embassies the Fake News Media and the democrat partners are working hard to determine whether or not the future attack by terrorists or the money was imminent was my team in agreement the answer to both is a strong yes but it doesnt really matter because of his horrible past. Its also been reported the us unsuccessfully targeted another Iranian Military official on the day it assassinated salmoni amid growing questions over the justification for the death the Us House Committee has threatened to subpoena secretary of state mike pompei oh if he doesnt testify later this month about the situation ok also stood by the assassination of somani added that washington plans a much more aggressive deterrence policy in the future held up and picks up the story. In u. S. Foreign policy buzz words are everything administrations love to have a single term they can use in order to explain their International Actions so lets review some of the greatest hits to be ready for preemptive action a reset in relations between the United States and russia might bomb peo seems to be rolling out a new one when defending the actions of the white house in dealing with international adversaries of the United States mike pompei ohs new favorite word seems to be deterrence reestablishing deterrence real deterrence military deterrence deterrence is hard to establish an easy to loose so according to the white house and its surrogates the killing of top iranian general qassam solomonic was necessary as part of this deterrence strategy but want to lay this out in context of what weve been trying to do theres a bigger strategy a strategy to this we have reestablished deterrence but we know its not everlasting that risk remains we are determined not to lose that deterrence but the iraqi Prime Minister has a different version of events according to the iraqi Prime Minister soleimani was on a Diplomatic Mission he was trying to make peace when he was ruthlessly cut down furthermore reports seem to indicate that so mahdi was not the only official to be targeted reports now show that a different iranian general was also in their sights but the strike was unsuccessful so who else could now be on the list as the United States claims it has the right to assassinate top iranian general extrajudicial lee and explain later well mike pompei o has thrown not only iran but also russia and china into the mix we not just in iran but in other places too where american deterrence was weak we watched russias 2014 occupation of the crimea chinas island building too in the South China Sea and its brazen attempts to coerce American Allies undermine to deterrence so if the united. States dislikes you they can pressure you economically diplomatically isolate you or brutally assassinate your own this is geopolitics in the age of deterrence the mask is come and ask this idea of supremacy that we we have you know this is you can call it american supremacy that we can do whatever we want and its up to us to decide who is a threat or not this is it really really disturbing and very dangerous i think and its not normal to hear this come an hour to somebody who is running the state department and this is extremely disturbing and im very disappointed that damage it can Political Class is not speaking out against this. Crazy idea that we can go ahead and just kill anyone we dont like it doesnt mean people are not guilty of things but if we take this principle and this. Approach to every nationality to every country we are going to have a really really mess an hour ahead. British police knew children were suffering the most profound sexual abuse in the Northern City of manchester but failed to protect them thats according to a new independent report officers in 2004 launched operation augusta to investigate the issue but the probe was shut down and few perpetrators were brought to justice. Officially the probe was closed due to lack of resources now i criminal investigation has been opened and the potential failures by the police the u. K. Independent office for Police Conduct found that racial tensions were one of the reasons given for stopping operation augusta whistleblower magyar a former Manchester Police detective who also worked on the operation says there were many more disturbing reasons. The decision to close down operational cost was driven by the decision of Senior Officers to remove the resources from the investigation this was because it was a very complex investigation but the work of the factors involved in the decision to close it down there was definitely an element of concern about the ethnicity of the offenders being pakistani men on the children being very vulnerable white children there was also the resources issue and because its very labor intensive it takes a lot of time it takes a lot of commitment from an organization to resource a job like this and also and that was a focus on what we call acquisitive crime so burglaries theft from Motor Vehicle robberies if somebody reported that kind of a crime to the police you would get a 1st class response if you were a child being raped it wasnt being reflected in Performance Indicators hence the police did not respond the initial investigation was triggered by the death of victoria go where she was in the care of Manchester City council after her mothers death the girl was subjected to Sexual Assault and injected with her one by a 50 year old man the report says that carers knew that abuse was going on but did not act while police failed to bring the perpetrators to justice 15 year old victoria died after being administered a heroin overdose a taurus grandmother says that since her death she has been battling for justice she was such a lovely girl she didnt deserve to die ive been fighting all my life for this she told herself with these men. The authorities knew that many victims were being subjected to the most profound abuse and exploitation but did not protect him from the perpetrators as a result very few of the relevant perpetrators were brought to justice and neither were their activities disrupted this is a depressingly familiar picture and has been seen in many other towns and cities across the country the chief constable of Manchester Police has offered his condolences to the victims adding that officers will do everything to get justice for the children and whistleblower maggie all over again one Senior Police and other officials themselves to be investigated. This coverup thats the only word there is for it was absolutely deliberate this report this review its an independent 3 view makes it Crystal Clear that this was a deliberate cover up there was a reluctance to knowledge that it was pakistani men predominantly who were abusing vulnerable young white children and their Young Children that became a political hot potato it was often said that these kids of 11 and 12 were making a lifestyle choice that they were working as prostitutes that they were kids that is never the case that they were vulnerable kids who we have a duty to protect and the all surratt is failed time and time again to do that this is criminal neglect in my opinion it is misconduct in a Public Office at the highest level and i want to see accountability criminal charges brought against Senior Police officers senior social workers and potentially going right up to the government if culpability can be shown there for the neglect of people in Public Office. Forces loyal to libyas military strongman Khalifa Haftar are blocked oil experts from key ports stopping more than half the countries are put the move comes at a critical time as later on sunday april when host a conference to bring peace to the country after on his rival the head of the u.

To resume each of the reassure we have been promoting does this. Meeting your most as a contribution to the conference of believe dont overdramatize the situation this think up of the past the there will only be no. One there to. Be the hope is that these talks will bring an end to an increase in violence thats been brewing since the end of 2019 sts general hafta announced he has his eyes on the libyan capital tripoli. 0 discomfort the broad and total assault expected by every 3 and all this. Today were now its the decisive battle and advancement towards the heart of the capital to set it free advance now. That so one of the major regional powers turkey getting directly involved in the conflict and curry rushed to the rescue of the tripoli government by sending its troops into the country libya there. You mean in order for the legitimate government in libya to remain standing and for stability to be established we are now sending our soldiers to this country despite a sold out painting a relatively gloomy picture of the situation in libya German Foreign minister heiko russ is relatively upbeat about getting a result from this summit weve been able to Reach Agreement so many important points for the future political process in libya the mere fact that weve managed to do this in the prison difficult situation gives those grounds to be cautiously optimistic make no mistake though despite that cautious optimism from mr moss time is running out to find a diplomatic solution to the ongoing conflict in libya thats why global heavy hitters are heading here to berlin before they saw it in an attempt to stop us going conflict boiling over into more scenes of our right war in the north african country peter all of our r. T. Libya has been an officially divided between rival factions since 2011 when a nato backed uprising killed a longtime leader Moammar Gadhafi are going underground has spoken with gadhafi as a former Spokes Person about the berlin conference and whether it can ease the crisis you can watch the interview in full on r. T. Dot com but for now heres a quick preview. Its extremely easy to get lost in the details of the libyan crisis and this is really a part of the game the imperialist west has been playing for decades and decades and the reason europe interview since chaos into libya and then what it does its many agents this chaos for years and years to come sometimes by military means sometimes by political means conferences negotiations economic sanctions you end the crees European Union involvement all of this is to keep the country and the control so they can rock its National Wealth and control its political system and prevent more importantly its population from rising up and making sure that their country is sovereign and independent from foreign influence they change the roles they are assigned roles between different parties in any conflict because for every single libyan Party Political current to come together in a libyan city not in berlin and of this of a vision of the African Union because we are african and without any foreign participation no one is accepting this because they know where this would be a genuine libyan decision would lead to something that the west does not want thats what they call to berlin. And paris hundreds gathered on saturday for the latest protest against the governments pension reform plans at least 59 people were arrested as the demonstration turned violent. Government has agreed to compromise and drop some of the most controversial aspects of its reforms and a strike by public transport workers is continuing to bring chaos to the french capital with no end to the unrest in sight. Was. Was. Amid the turmoil members of the paris opera have held in another 3 concerts in central paris to express their opposition to the pension reforms. And more than a 1000 doctors and hospital workers have also joined the strike this week they say working conditions in the Health Sector are getting worse with chronic Staff Shortages and lack of funding are to charlotte devinsky reports the moving clear some 600. 00 heads of hospital to pokemon and 470. 00 heads of Health Services and it comes amidst the countrys longest running strike in tech eights they say that is the doctors that they can no longer watch over service that is in adequate and threatens patient safety. Hospitals have been on strike for several months hospitals and Emergency Services unions have been sounding the alarm but politically nothing has been done thats the problem from the point of view of medical ethics doctors must treat patients but we dont have the necessary resources weve been killing our Health Care System for the past 20 or 30 years we have completely changed our control system at the moment all decisions are taken not by medics but by administrative staff and men. That has to change i came here from santa go right did humanitarian work so i can tell you that in terms of health care france is becoming like a developing country other issues include a lack of hospital beds for patients and a growing unease it reduced stuffing numbers of hospitals across phones now this move will hit some areas of the country more than others in the 2nd largest city must say almost 50 heads of departments are quitting their demanding the government comes up with a plan to fix the system. Over schools or see what we want is for patients to be properly treated at the optimal cost and is the fission plea is possible were being asked to reduce staff numbers to make savings so its a never ending cycle to break the cycle who must give hospitals what they need to continue treating people properly we can make budget cuts but for there we need a centralized National Plan health is a National Problem and we need to invest money into the system the Health Minister has though defended the governments position shes previously promised an additional 70000000. 00 euros in aid including a monthly risk premium for. The budget that we have announced of 1500000000 or 3 years will allow hospitals to renovate themselves to engage in new projects to recruit staff where theyre needed and open baz where there is need but this hasnt done enough to quell the anger felt by some medical staff so what will this mean for services well they were they will remain doctors offering medical services what they will no longer be is the backbone of the profession these doctors are resigning from essentially management and did ministry 2 roles roles that often receive no extra pay for it means feature hospital projects could be hampered complaints could go on the hurt.
