Antidoping agency blasts, the u. S. For double standards after the senate backs a bill to jail. Those behind dont ping in sports except in american leagues and rescuers from countries including russia, help refugees to return to nagornokarabakh and rebuild their homes. But many find they have nothing to return to every day we drive by this house and its a sad sides, every dog god in your house thats been destroyed and the family. But isnt there a very warm welcome. Youre watching the weekly here on r. T. International bringing you all the days top stories and a roundup of the stories that shape the week. But 1st police find takeouts and water cannon in ugly scenes in central paris this week to disperse crowds, angry at plans to ban the filming of officers. Frances interior minister insists the bill will protect law enforcement. But it has sparked outrage from rights campaigners on the public who clash with john dom on the street. Holderness. As you can see, Police Vehicles are moving down and pushing the protesters down that the street protesters whove come, im convinced to global security. Look to draw. 7 for real thats being discussed in the National Assembly on tuesday evening. This is a rule which includes an element which if cost could make it illegal for people to disseminate to record and publish images over police offices. If there is intent to harm criminalizing soon, all of the could lead to mourning amphoras who are now 45000. Thank you. Thank you for having. Ive seen women having their hey young to being abused to be grabbed by the head to be thrown to the floor by Police Officers, medics being hit by police battens. And in fact, as we were just at the metro station filming some of the violence against the protesters, we ourselves were forcibly chucked out by the police, my cameraman, who grabbed by offices while he was filming, while we were trying to do an interview and ejected from the crowd that oh my god, the image is over, the police are protests, have been used time and time again shown the violence thats been used that this law would essentially stop. Thats what unions say, they say that it is censorship. However, the government says this new is needed to protect Police Officers from the violence because while im talking about the police hitting protesters trying to move them around, we have also seen violence towards the police this evening. Weve seen bottles thrown into woods and far as being lit. We have seen destruction here on the streets of paris with the shelters being smashed in. So there is violence on both sides. And the government says this noor is needed to protect the police. Police unions say it doesnt go far enough and if it is a choice between freedom of the press and liberty, when it comes to showing these images to the security of their offices, they will side with the security of their offices every time the reality is it is been a brutal light with violence from both sides, but from where we have stood, the violence has been mainly coming from the police to watch protesters who for the most part, we havent witnessed them doing anything to well deserve some of the violence. Ive observed this evening, journalist sun, nongovernmental organizations have lashed out at the new law. The u. N. Warns it threatens freedom of expression. We discuss the bill with french journalists. Violence may be used within the framework of the law where there is so stiff sounds. Or if the use is strictly necessary and proportionate and but only only the possibility of filming freely without constraints gives these guarantees. But the rebel turnout of these lower does not like the expression of Police Violence because he thinks that there is legitimate and illegitimate violence. I think in a nutshell, we can see that france is experiencing an authoritarian bonapartists bridged as it has been, fortunately, often experienced in its past. Im sorry to say that journalism is the cornerstone of a healthy society. You wouldnt have if youre familiar with the case of alexander ben, are the bodyguard of president mccall, or you would have george floyd. If people do not film those events, you would know. And if you dont know, you slip into dark, you know, use and, and that article to me for which is part of a long list of all because theyre not, lawyers is detrimental to journalism. Theres already c. C. T. V. Cameras everywhere. Theres people from coming over. Everybodys got a cell phone, you cannot stop people from filming whether you like it or not. The truth will surface at one point. The only thing that this, this law, if by some miracle, it passes, it will, it will, and were vapor. The tension between the journalists and the police, and i dont see it happening. The press in france is a they call it the 4th power its, its very complicated to go by that blood lust and competition. Killing may have provoked Australian Special forces to met a 39. 00 afghan civilians. An inquiry has found and some killings appear to have been part of an initiation ritual. 1st new troops. There is credible information. The junior soldiers are required by their patrol commanders to shoot a prisoner in order to achieve the soldiers 1st kill. In a practice that was known as bloody afghanistans described, the alleged war crimes as unforgivable, and is calling on justice to be served for afghans already scarred by years of war and regular reports of war crimes by the u. S. Led coalition. The findings were not a surprise. Afghans were killed as if our blood was worthless. The foreign soldiers come here to serve their own interests, not to help us. An apology is not the solution. The Afghan Government must make sure that no foreign soldier can get away with killing afghans. The american soldiers killed many afghans in the past and the u. S. Would condemn the actions of its soldiers. But then do nothing about it. I am sure the same will happen. Because for them, one of those soldiers worth a 1000000 afghans. A story in officials have condemned what they call unforgivable atrocities by their special forces. But as they are trying to explains, nothing seems to change. After each such inquiry with those coming to light coming to fight terror in afghanistan becoming themselves the source of terror. 2 eggs, australia, and afghanistan, thousands of kilometers apart. One, a very keen to help the other. We remind committed as i. E. Nation to assisting afghanistan in resisting it. Terrorism. Resisting the Taliban Forces providing in cooperation with other countries. I label of stability and to live the lives curity. As it youll, country can build for itself a strong and prosperous and secure future. It took the australian Prime Minister a bit more than 13 hours to fly over to kabul to say all that a bit more than 13 years ago. By then, australian troops had already been engaged in the war torn country for several years, almost 20 years ago since the aussies got involved. Their number one military man has no other choice, but to say, sorry, i sincerely and unreservedly apologise for any wrongdoing by a stray in soldiers. I say no choice because allegations of 39 civilian deaths at the hands of his Defense Force as a result of blood lust and competition. Killing deserve an apology or actually much more than that large parts of the military report. We cant even read their blacked out, but even whats available, sounds horrendous and disgusting. This shameful record includes alleged instances in which new patrol in the members were coerced, to shoot a prisoner in order to achieve that soldiers 1st kewl in an appalling practice known as bloody atrocities. Ranged from reports of troops killing a 6 year old child and a house raid to a prisoner being shot dead to save space and a helicopter apology given measures to be taken culprits to be punished. Compensation to be paid. But just think of how many times since 2001, we heard the same kind of stuff from the kolisch. It was just one of the course. President obama spoke by telephone to apologize and express his condolences for the m. S. F. Staff and patients who were killed and injured. Sincere apologies for any offense this may have caused by apologies to the president of afghanistan. And we will make sure that anybody who was involved is held fully accountable with the full force of the law. It all makes you wonder, just how many more thousands of deaths or command, full pause, were still unaware of, especially when its revealed how much the people in charge were in denial about what they were doing. The problem is there is a disincentive really to tell the truth, we have created an incentive to almost require or for people to law. So well the latest report that left the aussies red faced lead 20 strategic consequences and military mindset. U. Turns, well, judging by how badly trumps plans to cut the troop presence in afghanistan have been received. Is just Wishful Thinking for now. Weve been in afghanistan for almost 20 years, and no nato ally wants to stay any longer than necessary. But at the same time, the price for leaving too soon, or in including 1000 when he could be very high in afghanistan, risk becoming once again a platform for International Terrorists to plan and organize attacks on a hunger. So i guess it means more apologies could only be on the way she called stay. Former governor of afghanistans ghastly province notes. Australia is not the only member of the u. S. Led coalition to have carried out such horrific actions. These are something that is very serious and we feel that that is beyond our comprehension. And im really appalled for that that. How could anybody in the name of humanity will live and do, especially with this poor afghan people. And we hope that that will manifest to something real, not only for the australian, but also other nato countries. And also, United States who have committed similar acts in afghanistan also needs to pay heed to this issue and reconcile their own differences that i have done in afghanistan. Well, down to doping agencies blasted the u. S. For a bill to jail. Those involved in sport started paying except in the u. S. Leaks, want to know exactly what would destabilize anti doping efforts by extending american jurisdiction while giving the countrys domestic outlets a free pass. World energy duping agency wishes to understand why this legislation excludes vast areas of u. S. Support, in particular the professional leagues in all college sport. If it is not good enough for american sports, why is it fine for the rest of the world . Washingtons rolled out its latest offensive in the war on performance enhancing drugs. Its called the rod chunk of act, the rather anti doping act of 2019 which strengthen the integrity of International Sports competitions by imposing criminal sanctions on certain persons involved in International Doping fraud. Conspiracy. The act would green light washington for legal action against doping conspirators in games involving american players and it outlines some have to be penalties, fines of up to 1000000. 00, as well as prison sentences of up to 10 years. A dream come true for the usa today. It is a monumental day in the fight for clean sport worldwide, and we look forward to seeing the act soon become law and help change the game for clean athletes for the good. Considering how the u. S. Has treated domestic doping in the past. The log book could probably use of updates take Julian Edelman, the patriots shining star and super bowl m. V. P. His career seen some great achievements with a little help from dope patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman is facing a 4 game suspension for performance enhancing substances. A 4 game suspension is quite a long leap away from 10 years in the can for edelman though, the cushy treatment didnt end there. He was still showered with awards at the years and even sealed advertisement deals. There are no rules in basketball. Its a similar story. Last year, basketball, prodigy deon, dreyer, 8, and was caught doping up his punishment, jail. Just kidding. He was suspended for 25. 00 games and then showed up on the jimmy kimmel show is a member of the n. B. A. All rookie team from the phoenix suns. Say hello to deion 38 and hello d. I agree and heres the best part. Hes now the face of a Protein Health shake, commercial ties on the prize movie. Thats how you build washingtons long made it clear. They take doping in sports very seriously. When, of course, it suits their agenda. This has nothing to do with lees welfare. Were looking after teens. If it did, it would be told to do different stuff. Look, you know, for the its not going to vote for the sponsors of the sport. Its simply looking out for the interests of the hollanders, media, and government to do with us, whether because it was obscene welfare, they would have brought it in across the board to all the Major League Sports in a very good sign of the citys water. But you wont do that because the owners of the major sports teams, immediate networks, who cover them. But this huge be massive is jewish and investors want them. So this has to simply have those greed and the dollar one deaths due to come if it every minute the u. S. Is setting ever more appalling raechel with, with a new 6 month peak of coronavirus victims. We each this week that makes even tougher lock down restrictions increasingly likely. And fears of stricter rules have people scrambling to stock up supermarket chains struggling to keep up with demand to put limits on the number of items such as combine. I cant of more pain reports on a growing u. S. Crisis over the pandemic. The number of covert cases across america now stands at roughly 11000000. In addition to that, 250000 people have died. We now have gloomy predictions coming from scientists, saying that that number could double in the coming months with the virus giving no sign of abetting. Many hospitals around the country have been pushed to the brink. One nurse in texas told the horrors of overcrowded morgues. d we have noticed that in its ok for us to be exposed, but you have doctors, you do not even coming near. You cant get exposed, but we can hear a ya make them on the monkey. In fact, it has gotten so bad that in el paso, texas, its Prison Inmates whove been given the job of transporting bodies in north dakota. The governor has signed an order saying that medical workers who test positive for coded 19 should still show up for work as long as theyre not showing symptoms. Nurses are furious. Union leaders say this is putting workers in mortal danger. We really feel like it has a mission, patients, even nursing as well, who really worry about a nurse are now. Nurses are exhausted across the street and everybody in that house and having to turn and we have asked people to really be heard and your current team and their contact, and im positive and were going to turn around. Im going to work with that. We are totally counting any of our respect and the credibility that we dont believe that community or not. You know, for politicians though the Public Health crisis is an opportunity to point fingers and blame each other. Joe biden blames the coronavirus deaths that have been forecasted for the next few months on donald trump and his refusal to concede the election. Furthermore, joe biden is saying that donald trump is the reason that Many Americans are suspicious of the vaccine, which do you see as the biggest threat to your transition right now. Given president trumps unprecedented attempt to obstruct and delay a smooth transfer of power, more people may die. The only reason people question the vaccine now is because of the. Now polls are showing that only about 58 percent of the American Public is willing to get vaccinated. And that is not going to change depending on whether or not donald trump is willing to concede the election results. If i took it in, as some people might die again, with the my down no vaccine. And some people might die in the future, like in 10 years. So even if it got tested that it was positive and it had no ill effect, i still wouldnt want to take it. I want to see what the actual effective rate is, how the doses are going to be administered. Is it a single dose of the dose, like how, like what the gap between doses. So just more information in terms of what the actual rollout will be. The covert 19 pandemic has devastated the country both in terms of Public Health and the economy. There is not much optimism right now, and theres not much hope that a new administration in the white house is going to turn things around and are to see new york. Bottom of putin has also had a behind the scenes look at talks to end the nickel, no account about conflicts, the russian president explained a peace deal between armenia and azerbaijan couldnt be reached weeks ago. But one of the nations was reluctant to stop fighting. You know, its on october 19th and 20th, i had a series of phone conversations with president aliyev and Prime Minister passion. And at that time, the armed forces of azerbaijan had regained control over an insignificant southern part of caravan. In general, i managed to convince president aliyev that it was possible to stop the hostilities. But his obligatory condition was the return of refugees, including to shusha. Then unexpectedly, for me, the position of our armenian partners was formulated in such a way that it was unacceptable for them that the Prime Minister told me back then. No, we cannot agree to this. We will fight. Therefore, accusations against him, of some kind of betrayal have no basis. Police have detained more than 90 protesters in mass rallies against the peace deal in armenia. Scapa, so demonstrations have been ongoing for almost 2 weeks, demanding the resignation of Prime Minister, and they call passion young who theyve branded a traitor under the piece de la media doesnt buy, john will hold on to their current military positions like it was on media control. Of the disputed regions, largest city step as a by john gets the 2nd biggest city which it took just before the fighting ended. I mean, he will also have to handover 3 other districts in the region, and your group of refugees has returned home to the disputed region. If they go on a karabakh, under the truce reached between armenia and azerbaijan. Last week, russian peacekeepers have secured the key road, connecting the area with armenia, allowing dozens of buses and cars to pass through. Have tested their route himself and brings us this report. The war may be over, but the humanitarian situation. Here instapundit here, is still dire. Scenes like this are repeated hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of times across the city and left to their own devices. Look at emergency workers would be overwhelmed. This is why russia has sent help. Aside from peacekeepers who patrol the routes and heights rusher also said civilian rescuers, engineers, farman, builders. They gauge the devastation and the estimate how much aid will be required. Its neither easy nor quick. Lets go for the next one. How many do you have on your list . Oh, there are too many. How many have we visited today . About 50, neither is it pleasant. Every creator has a story. Every destroyed home has its ghosts and with almost every visit, we hear again and again about how he were a she were all of them died when they were in this room 2 cousins. And my grandmother, i was in the room over there, which wasnt destroyed and i fell of my bed, opened my eyes and only saw dust. It took me 5 minutes to crawl out the window. Help has come from all over the world, humanitarian organizations, lukoil and russian. Rescuers catalog ruin. After wreckage, our 1st task is to cover all the broken windows and glass so people can survive the winter. Its some pleasant. Even scary. I had some role in the construction of many of these buildings is painful for the priority now is making catabolic, livable again, wreckage will be cleared later, but light damage has to be repaired. Now people are doing what they gather, plastering, move a small holes and covering empty window frames with plastic sheets. But there are a lens even for that. My house wasnt hit so bad. Theyve lost way for live lou. The window sought for their homes, which suffered much worse. Really cant complain. The city is sloot coming back to life. The shock of the war ease wearing off and with every returning refugees. There is a sense that the city of state by the get it has come back from the dead. But in every street there is a somber reminder that life will never be the same. And some people just cant come back. Every day we drive by this house and its a sad sight, every time a dog guarding a house thats been destroyed and the family that isnt there more, i guess d. Of tea from the garden they care about. Thanks for joining us here on r. T. Enter national this sunday morning. I dont forget plenty most always can be found on our website. R. T. Dot com, but we will be back in 30 minutes with the event newly elected u. S. President s invariably well to steer the country in a fresh, bold direction. This time though things may be a bit different, at least on foreign policy. Joe biden has promised to reengage with allies and restore the us his position as leader of the democratic world. Now, will the Biden Administration befall me on the global stage . Will we see a new approach or a return to the old ways . Its been decades since the fall of spains fascist regime, but old wounds still havent healed. Go into thing going into the me from, you know, me go feed a market economy in the us at the source mean older than us. And they seem content to, you know, cells and of newborn babies were torn from their mothers and given away and forced adoption. That only feast or that of my own. To this day mothers still search for grown children. While adults look in hope for their birth parents, the world is driven by a dream, shaped by from personal dares thinks. We dare to ask join me every 1st day on the alex salmond show. And ill be speaking to guest of the world of politics or business. Im show business. Ill see you then i was always on the bull, but at least i show up like big city, bright lights. You jump, but you know, g. s and many dangers of the rest of the cocoon, blatantly to its also a city where up to 300000. 00 crimes are committed every year for the last limpid look at your mosque, its filled to the reserve least one police officer, effectively 200 residents in russias capital lost on the english. I think you are still soiled, but then i will write to me that i will not go with the wind up boy soon. Will you please look. It doesnt mean what i am to most of the world is driven by a dream shaped by those with the dares thinks we dare to ask to do aerial reconnaissance. We do have perhaps mother im discussing the directory of the one i think im trying to contact all the time and that
