protesters clashing with police on the streets of the ecuadorian capital as the government did choose fuel subsidies to meet the terms of an i.m.f. . u.s. state department approves the sale of millions of dollars worth of anti-tank missiles to ukraine with the country proving to be a rich source of money for political intrigue in the u.s. . and american presidential hopeful bernie sanders declares war on the super rich gets massive public support even more surprisingly from facebook founder mark zuckerberg. there's no press minority. pranced. i don't think they should be hated they don't believe in demonizing

the successful. have to do in this is about international law and it just turned 1 pm here in moscow now this saturday 1st focus on ecuador that country in the grip of a wave of violent protests after a state of emergency was declared thursday demonstrations began over the government's decision to end fuel subsidies with petrol prices expected to more than double as a result. i was to do some transport workers believing a national strike there than the country's president using emergency powers to put troops on the street in order to try to maintain order but there have been nasty scenes of chaos at times with police clashing with protesters and at least $350.00

arrests the fuel subsidies cost the government more than a $1000000000.00 a year and they say there's no chance they'll be reinstated it's all part of the president's plan to cut public spending to meet the terms of i.m.f. loan agreed in march that if he goes down off takes a deeper look at the impact it's had. the i.m.f. is the generous and open handed and giving and seeing whenever a country's economy is in grave need my immediate priority for the i.m.f. is to help members minimize the risk of crises we focus on job creation we focus on productivity we focus on stability stability actually will be my my my key focus is to build strong qualities so people fly 30 rock except far too often when a state places its trust in the i.m.f.

it ends up in scenes like these. people like like ours sure screeds i don't know the facts she doesn't suit the charts or sells. the last pictures we showed you are from ecuador a country that proves that the i.m.f. does business the same way on both sides. it's of the atlantic at the expense of the people the ecuadorian administration reached a $4200000000.00 deal with the fund in exchange for a form's abiding by its trusted playbook the i.m.f. marketed it in a non surprise fashion achieving their own last fiscal position is at the core of the authorities problem which will be supported by

a 3 year extended arrangement from the i.m.f. well i've already kind of spoiled to you how this has turned out so far in turmoil in the streets and the state of emergency the authorities have voluntarily renounced their right to choose they must follow through with the tax reform stripped their citizens of some labor protections and cause fuel prices to double measures wildly unpopular among the people well but these are the commandments of the sect of a stereotype and like with any cold it's easy to get in not to get out in 2002 the president of malawi a nation in africa said that the i.m.f. had to force them to sell big countries strategic grain reserves they did and as a result millions of people were exposed to famine when the drought hit something the i.m.f. outright refused to accept any responsibility for the causes of food shortages in

malawi are complex including lapses in the government's early warning systems distortions in domestic markets and mismanagement of food reserves in more recent cases the i am of bailout programs for italy greece ireland and portugal ignited europe wide and to your story to movement just when people realize that in reality the money comes not from the i.m.f. but from their wallets in ecuador just over 20 percent of the population support the reforms that came until with the funds billions because the i.m.f. is a robin hood who got it all wrong and now gives to the. rich and takes from the poor the i.m.f. is a credit to our country is under certain conditions on the. day they control the economy and they're going to go on which is about the goal of i.m.f. what they are really following this trade to open the economy of whether just to make the. ecuadorian people in the future going to get access to

a different kind of services that they dig out but the thing is what is the cause of this going off the rest of the ration of the economy anything they're doing we know they're going precinct we know they've been increasing unemployment rate at the moment but in theory yes in theory back with all of the future going to be an economy similar like the u.s. economy or mexican economy let's say but obviously with that with our high like i say we because of mr ridge and that's going to be. continued a truck next an impatient inquiry into donald trump in the state over a phone call with the leader of ukraine seen white house officials subpoenaed over the president's contacts with the democrats spearheading the probe say that troubles left them with no choice as for u.s. military aid which plays an important role in the whole scandal on monday the u.s. to part of the state approved the sale of nearly $40000000.00 worth of anti-tank weapons to kiev the $150.00 javelin missiles come on top of the $200.00 sold in the country last year our senior correspondent more galatea of next takes

a look at how ukraine has turned into a gold mine for the u.s. . at 1st sight you wouldn't take ukraine for a land of opportunity unless you're into peddling weapons the javelin system was help ukraine build its long term defense capacity to defend its sober instance oratorial integrity in order to meet its national defense requirements now ain't that just the american dream selling weapons to a nation that can barely afford to keep itself warm in the winter and not just any weapons the javelin by far the most. expensive and it's class more than $200000.00 for the launches in iraq it was an easy though it took a concentrated push by arms manufacturers lobbyists and politicians to overturn a ban on lethal weapon sales to ukraine and this man this man was at the

center of it the significance of this is that we lifted the bombing your arms did provide anti-tank weapons. and now we're prepared to treat ukraine like any other normal country which it is just look at this face doesn't it radiate honesty and empathy but appearances can be deceptive kurt was nor could had a little side gig going on that was all hush hush the sod from representing trump in ukraine he also worked for the b.g. are a huge and powerful lobbying group which surprise lobbies for a theatre the company that manufactures javelin missiles and will make millions by selling them to ukraine cut unfortunately resigned in september aside from the whole potentially corrupt thing with b g r a great he was also embroiled in the trump ukraine scandal speaking of which trump

has recently put on hold almost $400000000.00 in military aid to ukraine it lays out. a scheme to use the leverage of the presidency you'd use the leverage of the. vital military assistance to a foreign nation. to provide or tame dirt on a political opponent it's hard to imagine a more serious set of allegations than those contained in the complaint surely they can't all be rotten this is. adam adam has a much friendlier face than kurt adams seems genuinely concerned about ukraine alas adam doesn't seem to be any better see among adams sponsors is a fellow named igor pasternak who makes a lot of money on military contracts with ukraine is the pasternak recently hosted

a fundraiser for adam after which the congressman began all but the mounding that the u.s. send money and arms to ukraine which would allow his generous sponsor to rearm the tire ukrainian military and just lastly per year the im 16 project was conceived some time ago as ukrainian armed forces border guards and national guard we time switch to nato standards on a city you could probably film sin city 3 with characters base than these guys but even if you don't sell guns and don't get kickbacks or donations from mama's manufacturers you can still use ukraine here for example as ukraine's national and t. corruption bureau chief sit nick recorded bragging about how he helped hillary clinton during the 2016 election. not

trump but hillary i help to hillary belongs to the co-hosts of politicians who comprise the her germany in the us both in the us and in the entire world for runs that is sort of better oh you could definitely film sensitive 3 with these guys but the audio is real confirmed by ukraine's attorney general it was mr sit nick by the way who published dirt on trump's campaign manager in 2016 in the real last anyway but the fellow tried so what if you don't have guns to sell or elections to win what if for example daddy wants to get in. is young boy a nice cushy job where he didn't have to do much well ukraine's the help booth john biden's son and john kerry's stepson landed executive jobs at the ukrainian energy company now strap yourself in hunter biden earned $50000.00

a month 50000 in a country where the average wage is a few $100.00 and you know what in the weird and wacky world of us politicians and i think i gave you a taste of just how wacky it is that's normal be underlying problem here was of course hunger by receiving $50000.00 a month from ukraine energy company do you think that that is evidence of corrupt behavior no people 'd are set on. the mind 3 payments it was always a playground for america ukraine in 2013 victoria nuland boasted about the billions america spent supporting democracy in ukraine or meddling in its politics you pick since ukraine's independence in 1901 the united states has supported ukrainians as they do democratic skills and institutions as they promote civic participation and good governance of which are preconditions for ukraine to achieve

its here p n aspirations we've invested over 5000000000 dollars to assist ukraine in knees and articles that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic train well thank you mr nuland and ukraine turned out great but then again look at it like an american senator you don't care that ukrainians are poor cold stressed and hopeless what you care about is that your sponsors can make money and keep the meeting to you what you care about is ukrainians helping you in the elections which. you care about is ukraine providing your kids with comfy little jobs that pay millions over the years and if you are an american senator well ukraine couldn't have turned out any better. for girls diverse senior correspondent there u.k.

government has formally acknowledged the killing of maori people when a british explorer the story goes way back arrived in new zealand in the 18th century but the official statement stop short of the full apology for someone hoping for. knowledge the deaths of 9 of your ancestors. as the descendants of this. i often lie every since. for i understand the pain does not diminish with time so the back story of the 1st encounter between captain james cook's men and indigenous people was in 1769 that led then to the deaths of at least 9 mary's ramifications still being felt to this day britain's newly expressed regret came just a few days before a government funded commemoration of that landing is just the latest in fact in a series of similar actions they've taken over their colonial past in 2013 the u.k. agreed compensation for more than 5000 torture victims of a 950 s. uprising in kenya and earlier this year former prime minister to resign may

describe the 1900 and rips massacre as a shameful scar on britain's history in india when troops fired on unarmed crowds containing some nationalists protesters and killed more than a 1000 people according to some indian estimates but again her words were not seen as a full apology we spoke to a maori rights advocate who says the wording of these expressions is absolutely critical. it's not an apology and it's an expression of regret and so those are very particular wounds that have been used and the british high commission has reclear she was not speaking on behalf of the british crown to the actual ones that seat james cook a lot i think great britain would be the exception to seeing the vanguard of imperial expansion as as being heroes i mean this is the same for many european empires they here are sized their activities and they got to write the

history books and my price themselves as the event but to say and an expression of regret which is literally a non apology that it's impossible to know what really happened when there are numerous accounts they have slight variations but they all agree that these people were unarmed and were killed for the sake of demonstrating supremacy we know that it happened. this was quite a turn for the books facebook's founder of the world's 5th richest person no less mark zuckerberg has made quite a surprising statement all that said by agreeing with us presidential hopeful bernie sanders that billionaires should not exist with the much maligned donald trump also the helm of america reuters questions whether or not the rich are becoming an oppressed minority these days caleb maupin investigate. billionaires pretty much rule the united states the president himself is a billionaire but apparently he is the most threatened and bullied man in the

country he has turned american diplomacy into a cheap extortion racket let's be honest donald trump is a loser all his failed 'd businesses trump cares about exactly one person and that one person is named donald trump i'm sorry that you're a terrible president. well perhaps but the bullying of donald trump has very little to do with him being a billionaire billionaires almost live in a parallel universe with elite parties private jets and little islands that they own but apparently some billionaires feel like they are persecuted minority it's the ordinary people that are persecuting them led by a boogie man named bernie sanders. billionaires bb billionaire billionaire killion as billionaire i am not a billionaire due to all that class hatred incited by bernie sanders the rich are forced to hide in fancy restaurants and the studio of the fox news channel is no longer safe for them to roam the streets with commoners let's go back to bernie

sanders for a minute when you're having a standard here what the hell has he done it's aspirational i didn't start with anything. penalize everyone that's done well now steve schwarzman the founder of blackstone says that the treatment of billionaires in the united states is starting to resemble the treatment of the jews in nazi germany seriously he actually said this it's the wall it's like when hitler invaded poland in 1939 and he's not the only one it's a rising trend if you go back to 1933 we've different words this is what hitler was saying in germany you don't survive as a society if you encourage and thrive on and view it genesee the wealthy t.v. preacher kenneth copeland has also reported suffering at the hands of the not so wealthy. or a huge fire lines you can't manage that today write this don't feel old world right get in an air get in alone 2 with

a bunch of demons so the gap between the rich and poor in america has reached its peak in half a century so do you think that billionaires are really an oppressed minority we decided to ask new yorkers what they think that's a joke right oppressed. not at all malcolm we approached minority women living in a world in which i don't think they should be hated they didn't get that way well most people did a really successful got that way because they work if they have enough money so they can protect themselves don't believe in demonizing the successful i mean their majority of them has created a product or service ness or result of. the good work that they've done this is their success i don't demonize him for being successful now this notion that the rich are somehow mistreated by society is certainly not a new cold war novelist and philosopher i know rand wrote an entire book called atlas shrugged it was about how the rich of the world go on strike against the ungrateful rabble who levy taxes against them but average americans just don't buy

the argument seems that when the ultra rich claim the world has been unfair to them they don't really know what fair means kaleb up and r.t. new york it's exactly 20 minutes past the hour live around the world from moscow out to international great to have your company stay with us to offer the break sort of face control in france for a start you love your image scanned online over in hong kong it's mosques off the protest is. what politicians do you should. put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. some want to just. have to go right. this is what the korean people. interested in the war. thanks it.

seems wrong. but i. just don't. get to see how this day. and in. the trail. when some find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. again i'm kevin over this is out international hope your weekend is going good let's focus on hong kong where thousands defying

a facemask but it comes into force today saturday emergency measure to restrict face coverings resulted in violent clashes friday when protesters smashed windows and set fire to the city's metro system and dozens of shopping malls will be closed throughout the day it is the 4th month now violent demonstrations in the territory against beijing's policies started in opposition to that extradition bill that would have allowed suspects be taken to mainland china trial bill has since been dropped the trouble continues. a case of picture perfect in france we can report it set to become the 1st european country to roll out a nationwide i.d. program using facial recognition tech president among them across been pushing the initiative despite a barrage of criticism about privacy concerns in paris shiela dubai the ski. your face is your passport it's a saying that's becoming more and more reality in the modern world we may already be used to the idea of facial recognition to access off smart phones or even

certain apps but how about the idea that governments are now moving in the direction of using your face as a means to access your digital information as a citizen so that could be services such as taxes and social security without there being any alternative that's exactly what's about to happen in france it seems it's set to become europe's 1st country to use facial recognition it's caused theory amongst critics who say the id program dubbed him his premature and they've also raise concerns about its privacy the process we know from personal data which reveals racial or ethnic origin political opinions religious or philosophical beliefs is prohibited while the development of this technology creates unprecedented opportunities socially beneficial uses it also poses a serious threat to human rights and civil liberties most notably the freedom of expression freedom of assembly and association the right to privacy and the right

to a fair trial. ellison and acronym for certified online authentication on mobile will be rolled out in november according to the french government will enable any individual to prove his or her identity on the internet in a secure manner but how do people here in paris feel about it you can't as force people like. not even giving a choice is the us and the kids to do one thing and then it's it's very rough it's true that it could be dangerous i don't know much about it and i think security is more important but it doesn't bother me but i don't comment of choice i think people can already do that with social media there's also been concern that this could be the celeb for a slope to facial recognition biometrics being used by c.c.t.v. i mean every move that you make could be entered into a database and that's already happening in countries like china the french

government though insists that this will not be the case here and it says any footage to use facial recognition will be raised within seconds but those assurances may not be enough to persuade people given that state security standards in france have already being breached earlier this year it took a little over an hour to break into a secure government messaging app so many are perhaps concerned that all technology is pregnant will and their information could fall into the wrong hands big brother is watching you and soon you may have no choice but to let it show if you can ski r.t. paris. it is that we can bus a picture from moscow so far call embrace here and 30 minutes with more if you get a minute check out our t. dot coms we can kevin and thanks for watching and have a great day.
