Worldwide this is r. T. International on call in bray moscow with this hours headlines stories and reaction 1st of the u. S. State of wisconsin then where the governor has said hes sending 500 National Guards to konoha to help support local police on this wednesday night thats after hundreds of protesters there defied a curfew and choose day night which was designed to bring an end to the recent unrest violence erupted after police shot a black my multiple times in the back on sunday on the 3rd night of protests 2 people were shot dead in a 3rd was injured within the past few hours a 17 year olds been charged with 1st degree intentional homicide. Also. That there. Were expensive and those things like that you can hear people talking about me. Let me see if you think. Of a corner here. Theyre making some sort of announcement at exactly but. Thats not going to let them put on the gas masks. Or anything on the playing and. I think the crowd is magically moved back to the park. If. You can see the pepper balls 1st thing when that sense. Of brotherhood of. People protest that this. Is. A look behind me. Winding back to sunday and what led to days of all going on rest a bit whether this is upsetting video of what happened that day that shows Police Shooting jacob like from behind his family say the 29 year old is our power lies to the waist down. The american political commentator to relevant torah says he was not surprised by the subsequent prolife. And the only people would be surprised at the people who believe the issues of institutional racism in this country i mean i remember back originally when black wives matter 1st started were Trayvon Martin and then you know you had mike brown or garner and you had case after case of these shootings of young black men and women across the country were officers were never really held accountable for that and you had protests throughout these kind of false you know. Dog and pony show styled fixes of the institutionalism without really addressing it without really. You know taking it to task and really changing about culture and the nature of this country but that allows these things to happen so no it doesnt surprise me that were seeing once again george floyd now this man in wisconsin its a pattern thats not going to change until there is real actual honest change in this country and that doesnt come from just you know politicians getting on t. V. And promising reforms but never happens theres also anger why can osha police still dont have body cameras which could shed more light on what happened on sunday despite city authorities approving body cams way back in 2017 supplies are said to be delayed and still wont be ready for another 2 he is what he can lose in wisconsin inconsistent as has been happening in other parts of the state they not only wed them they must also keep the recordings for months in case an investigation is needed to americas bend swans says that when they did big difference in the case of jacob lake. It is institutional failure and by the way it is not true that there are not clear regulations in fact the governor of wisconsin has set out very clear guidelines for how body cameras are to be used how long footage from those body cameras has to be kept in Public Record when thats all been laid out so that the problem is when you have a situation like what we exactly like what we had in this Community Just the other night this is why body cameras are so badly needed over and over we see it because an officer tells one story though. The person who is in confrontation with police tells a different story witnesses tell a different story and then you have the story of those who manage it in some cases certainly not at all but in some cases get to use their cell phones to capture any. Version of what happened right because the camera video that we see from a distance is not the whole story its a snippet the moment of it but body cameras are supposed to protect the officer and the person whos being confronted but theres been such a push to not use body cameras to run away from that technology that it becomes disingenuous when there is a situation like this and now the mayor says oh its a budget issue is not a budget issue its a lack of will issue. Another day and yet another antigovernment rallies taking place in bella ruse protesters once again packed the center of men because they continued to campaign against what they claimed was a rigged president ial election. Has more from the capitol. The protesters behind me they have decided to light the flashes on their phones to make themselves visible so you can you can see the scale of this protest about a few 100 people have decided to come out here in the Central Square of the better russian capital and so well some of them have taken their dogs with them sort of walking their pets here and theyre making their voices heard to the right of me theres an improvised podium and does a special person who is kind of steering the protest with the chance with the slogans you know all of them of course are calling on the resignation of the incumbent president of belarus Alexander Lukashenko and well but i wont go as far as saying that this that this country that belarus is torn by the protests by the opposing protests but right now almost this the Anti Government action has has been a daily routine here people have been showing up in numbers daily there was a huge a massive protest on sunday as the 10s of thousands of people showed up this is like a demo version of it now its like about a 1000 times smaller but i mean of course it is it is a day so people have their daily business to attend to also progovernment protesters have been coming out in the streets as well but now we have a person here one of the protesters who is has agreed to talk to us who is going to tell me why hes here and so on and so forth so hi thank you so much for agreeing to to it to me could you please shortly introduce yourself and tell me why youre here my name is ron im 26 years old i work in the tech sector here in belarus in a private company and i have been coming here for the past turned a half weeks a little bit exhausted but to all the people here are hopeful that this persistent protests of this peaceful protest percival will help us make some change in the country if you fall in the channel like next to for instance a couple of days ago it published a post essentially giving out personal. Details and linking to social media of some of the young people who showed up at the opposition protest and excuse me of the probably progovernment protests i took to one of the girls and do she essentially showed me thousands of messages with obscene language and so on and so forth do you think it was such a good idea for a reliable source of information as you put it to in fact to essentially docs a young girl like 21 go shes 21 years old in fact had to leave her home she shes scared do you think this is something a reliable source of information should do well im opposed to that i dont do that personally. I dont approve of that basically but we should understand that a telegram channel is not a professional media so to say and they are entitled to some mistakes at the at this beginning phases but the good theyre doing for our country is right now a little bit bigger than the negative impact they might have occasionally they have more than 2000000 followers do you think that they should be held accountable for the mistakes they make i think will give a fair evaluation of their actions after everything is finished but right now its a little bit of a chaotic time and people shouldnt be judged on minor mistakes when theyre good theyre doing is great or 5 excuse me for a personal question are you married yes i am would you would you how would you feel if your wife got more than 4000 messages calling her all sorts of words and wishing death upon her and her family and so on i wouldnt be happy about that obviously but i would be more scared if my wife was put into prison and beaten and harassed and or possibly even raped which is our government doing right now its much worse than any words that might arrive to her in messages. The british Prime Ministers joined the growing chorus of International Voices demanding an investigation into the alleged poisoning of russian opposition activists alexina belly but before any probes even had the chance to get going Boris Johnson is already stating as fact the felony was deliberate. The targeted. The poisoning of alexander short the world the u. K. Stands in solidarity with him and his family we need a full transparent investigation into what happened the perpetrators must be held accountable and the u. K. Will join International Efforts to ensure justice is done Boris Johnson the british Prime Minister saying that the u. K. Backs an independent investigation into what happened to alexina valmy it would seem he supported in that by the German Government there was a press briefing on wednesday here in berlin not a lot mentioned about mr no violence but they did say that they stressed the importance of an investigation taking place over the atlantic in the United States u. S. Secretary of state mike pompei o said that he was concerned by reports that its come out from germany and that stay should they prove accurate the United States supports a full investigation now what weve heard coming out from moscow is to me to the press corps of the kremlin spokesperson saying that moscow also wants to know what happened but the findings of the german clinic alone are grounds to launch an investigation as far as theyre concerned mr peskov also sent out a warning against jumping to conclusions we repeat that were also interested in finding whats happened to the victim numerous analyses by our doctors have been no help in detecting the substance that causes current state were not aware of the german medics found a substance numerous wordings about poisoning that are widely used now we treat them with patients but do not agree with such a version at the current stage for us we should find the poisonous substance as were the statements of discontent they should come officially and not from the mass media or the hospital in skin russia that 1st treated Alexei Navalny carried out tests to see if they could find any toxins in his system 1st off food too. Share all of their information with the hospital here in berlin theyre now calling on the shot at a hospital in the german capital to share information with them to try and determine exactly what they found in alexina vilely system as it stands at the moment though when it comes to the condition of the lakes in the fall me what we know for the latest is that he remains stable but in an induced coma theres been no further updates from medics here in germany we discussed what might be behind the calls for an investigation with geo political analyst and consultant rainer office. We are in the reality of politics of geopolitics and therefore the wording selected by different political needs to be weighed. Before the background of political intentions iraq facts and i think we see a clear line here that Great Britain has a certain interest of. Damaging the reputation of russia and in the script case 2 years ago we have never seem to hear evidence of what was alleged in that time the poisoning of well i just see. The titian of a certain case of a certain pattern which. Fits into the overall framing which has been built concerning russia that its a cruel gray gmo of which. Its opponents are kills its opponents it without teeth from moscow on the way the u. K. s big annual classical sing along with british invasion bells have 2 of the countrys most patrick songs but no they shared the b. B. C. s dropping the lyrics sparking a cultural centered on kobe and colonialism as we discuss among our stories after the break. Lead. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy confrontation let it be an arms race in this on off and spearing Dramatic Development only and going to resist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. Hello again human Rights Groups around great facebook after a blocked a 1000000 strong protest in thailand thats critical of the king of thailand has seen mass prodemocracy rallies with some calling for reform of the monarchy Facebook Says its been pressured by the thai authorities to have a social media giants have no issues about the authorities being challenged in other countries because they have been taking a look at that. This is an entirely new paradigm we are witnessing the birth of a new type of censorship customized tailored censorship what you say no longer matters it no longer matters where youre from what matters is who you say it against. Thailand has a very specific law its called the less majestic and what it does is criminalize any negative speech towards the king all the queen or the heir or the 2nd bear and so on so the rule family cannot be criticised by anyone if you criticize the queens dress for example or the kings haircut you face 15 years in jail 15 years this now apparently includes International Criticism so on facebook for example which just banned approved more chrissy group of 1000000 people for hurting the kings feelings after careful review facebook has determined that we are. Impelled to restrict access to content which the Thai Government has deemed to be illegal 23. 00 said.

S. Secretary of state you know this is a long shares relationship shows a set of 200 years and i know we will remain great and good friends for the next 2 centuries as well we could report mr pump a stark raving duplicity and hypocrisy after all miss the pump arrows happy to cozy up to the saudi king for example it isnt dictators who regimes that mr pompei will facebook have a problem with its where those autocrats are from. Remember the United States government south thing itself all serve what was happening in Hong Kong FreedomJustice Liberty they shouted over and over again their facebook promoted proved to more prosy groups and cracked down bad procida groups a slew of them we costly working to detect and stop this type of activity because we dont want our services to be used to manipulate people the United States and other free nations will continue to protect our peoples from the long arm of beijings authoritarianism i mentioned earlier customized censorship this is the result censorship the lid to a time and a place no one rule for all so you can fight for freedom so long as you are fighting for freedom from someone that the United States doesnt like if you are fighting for freedom from othello whos prepared to ruin your and your familys life. Because you wrote a mean comment about him well you cant do that see he is pump a rose powell. And here we are europes last dictator they call him lucian ko same story really a part of the population loves him a part of the population hates him and pump who has a picture of the hugging each other really does have a collection not what theyre still trying to decide by the way washington facebook is this an autocrat who is good for america and should be through the democracy groups under the bus and label them haters. Who is at a disadvantage though his dad to see he didnt give them a crowd and say that it protects against rowdy peasants. For his Health Care Workers have marched on white hole in Central London demanding more pay. They say they deserve better after putting their lives on the line at the height of the covert crisis that recorded the worst level of coronavirus deaths in europe with more than 41000 lives lost the pandemic stretched the state run National Health service to its limits earlier this month medics held similar demonstrations in 40 towns and cities across the country we talked to nurse Naomi Bennett who took part in todays protest. Boyce is a not been for that i dont see anything that any of the unions are doing. Absolutely nothing im saying that the unions are average evidence and research. But none of them attack you mail system who us now says the government predicting that way and i have a number of 19 if you think that were going to go back on the battlefield without action im sorry its not really worth risking our lives to go and do. When were actually in ourselves too many of our colleagues at the i especially the black know. You cannot send us back and. Unfortunately a lot of us will know that period. Of 8 about britains colonial past is making news again in the u. K. After the b. B. C. Confirmed that its removing the lyrics to 2 Patrick Arctic songs at its flagship classical concert the proms 18th century song rule britannia has been criticized for its links to slavery while land of hope and glory penned in 1001 plugs of the British EmpirePrime MinisterBoris Johnson no insists the brits should not be ashamed of their history i think its time we stopped cringing embarrassment about our history about our traditions and our culture and we stop this. Part of nation and witness i want to get that off my chest. The b. B. C. Says of the next would drop because covert restrictions means there wont be the usual flag waving a Live Audience to sing the songs as theyve done in so many previous years heres some of the reaction weve been hearing. Prince of multicultural country theres anthems written in the. Early 18th century critics of britains imperial past so well and good and maybe this reclaiming museums where they rightly belong but i think on the National Broadcast we dont want to hear that sort of stuff and certainly thats only my background if you are black or asian or from one of the commonwealth countries then the implication that britons will never be slaves doesnt hold quite true for you and neither your descendants and i think should go almost everybody in the country likes it and they enjoy this up in the one night a year of the last night of the problems its been going on since 8095. 00 so thats when the problem started so its a carnival coach or its a part of our heritage and they should state review its not the place of people who have just started working for the b. B. C. To destroy it they couldnt stop us singing britains a multicultural country is not a country. A land of hope and glory and how can we pay be patriotic to a country that formally because black pretty citizens as we saw it when ross county we want to have a real debate about the nature of citizenship more than prepared to help it but to try and suggest that this country treats everybody with equality before the laureus complete hogwash in fact were an Unequal Society and a deeply Racialized Society doesnt mean proven by Research Time and time again singing songs about touching or then we need to find a new tune and you would signal with them that reflect the modern realities of britain in the 21st century in this country in the United Kingdom there is nothing going on its the same as these you know its a kingdom its one of the best places in the world for black and brown people to live its not a racist country this now there is systemic racism simply isnt true look like go on im a London Assembly member and. Weve got i an indian secretary youve got india chancellor of the exchequer yeah no i do they you know its not all white people to say to black people this is a when the focus intrigue you know racism doesnt exist its about people to sell white people actually this is what we think and the well meaning member response of black people when they surveyed by himself laurie and others in the post but like most movements hes a pretty nice remains a racist country so much like the sort of romantic. Drivel that we just said relation so this may be some sort of wonderful meritocracy of antiracism the b. B. C. Culture reflected changing culture of the times and we see programmes removed from the b. B. C. Like Love Thy Neighbor and god knows what else and there will be more of that to come up salute the show and this is just another element on top that was something completely different i wouldnt agree with that but were not talking about that were talking about last night of the from so shouldnt you have to work on the b. B. C. One star bursts you find that you have diversity but youve got to have tradition in that youve got a city by British Culture not every other culture. And thats whats so wrong about this. Cross talks next on r. T. International thrashing out whether american civil unrest right now is more down to class than race 30 minutes were thinking about and his guests coming up then down hoping to hear to update you have over the coming hours from now then from me in the team in moscow thanks for watching. And else since seems wrong. But all roles just dont hold. Any world yet to seep out just because thats an. End in detroit because the trail. Went something and find themselves worlds apart we just saw the common ground. You know a look at the solution take a deep dive into the issue theyve been chatting about all year now today were going to be talking with more also known as an l w of the breakdown of cast and following him on twitter for a long time to cast the other great thing about this all new universe is that people who might not get on media get on media and then they arise to the top and suddenly theyre like wow these people are awesome and i was and i failed in that attempt. In the troubled 19 seventies a group of killers rampage through parts of Northern Ireland that was coordinated loyalist attacks a population of tens of forced to flee their homes and what was striking to put these attacks was that the or you see the Police Actually took part in the attacks so instead of preventing they were active participants in the burning of the streets in belfast i think more than a 100 innocent civilians with. The review can seniors and we found out more i was surprised about the extent undertaker into which the inclusion was involved in some of those cases the killers would lead to be named. I think it went to do very very top i think if the phones. There was here where. You know on the go ahead. On american lives would pharmaceutical companies have a miraculous solution. Based drugs to people who are chronic pain and believe that their prescription. Is working for them on the remedy. To the price at the. Close of dependence and addiction to opiates to long to use that really isnt scientifically justified and ill study actually suggest that. The long term effects might not just be the absence of benefit but actually that they may be causing long term. Hello and welcome to crossfire all things are considered im Peter Lavelle the spiral downward depending on who you believe in the media the civil unrest in america is the result of systematic racism this explains protests and rioting but it does it the commanding heights controlling the Financial System media and the Business World are loath to admit it its the economy stupid for them race always trumps class.
