opens up to talk a call soon about the pressure existed on him by the f b i natal, apple, and google like 1st from the census, the government, the a very welcome to you. this is on the international with the world news on the date is great to have you company this. now as we begin in central garza where at least 11 people, including children have been killed and it is wally. so i called them a gauzy refugee camp. a warning for you, the disturbing images ahead. the bodies were brought to the, i'll ask the hospital why destroy old relatives bid farewell to the last long pres, warehouse outside the hospital, over the bodies of the victims before they were taken away for burial. another is where the swipe hits a refugee camp in southern russ sonya the egyptian folder. children were also among

the dead. this also fall, the number of palestinians killed in 6 months of war has reached the thing. 3899. that includes 14000 children as, according to the health ministry of the in case of a 76000 to being wounded. that is, the turkish president strongly criticized the killing of children comparing as well as actions with those of nazi germany. the good soldier, they killed 14000 children, 14000 children. their actions had already surpassed. people are really going to, despite those who did not see the death of 14000 innocent children, and tried to curry favor with these. well, by claiming that from us is a terrorist organization. we will courageously defend how science struggle for independence under all circumstances. meanwhile, google's headquarters in america have been gripped by pro palestinian protests and

california and new york. the tech joins employees along with activist, gotta to condemn the corporation suppose of his way the actions in gaza protest estates, demonstrations under the slogan, know tech for a policy side. they called on google cheese to drop projects, nimbus, they cloud computing project, all the ideas posted in on most of them. employees also claim that they face harassment and bullying which the company has failed to address. some employees were reportedly arrested off to assist and protest, plus the binding plan to grow counted by west students to, to the streets, demanding 2 ends of the mc university's corporation with as well on. i said demick projects protest as we're supposed to lead to i to break into amazing get the university's academic senate and the gym. and the local police burst into the venue of

a pro palestinian conference that was scheduled to be held over 3 days. one of the speakers, the honest a virus lock is one square, he says, finance witnessed. it was due to give a speech at the event. he says the police full simply shut down the meeting. a speech was meant to be transmitted. broad costs spoken live during the palestine, congress and berlin, friday. the 12th of april was because the german police had gone by the whole of the political system of the federal republic of germany, boasting, and prevented jews by his damian's and the rest of us wanted to have a congress during which to discuss these big observation quick existence, universe of human rights from the jordan, revert to the method that any n c, german police prove to be young, reasonable doubt by bursting in and interrupting the live stream. grabbing the microphone ending that magnificent congress that flashes does not need to be in

government in order to be in power. a similar case followed in the us where the university of south california cancelled as valedictorian speech at this is graduation of corresponded age. i takes a closer look at how critical voices are being silenced. it has long been believe that's a breeze someone's freedom of speech or thought might almost be considered a deadly sin. at least that's how the west has been promoting their values to be. and there may be a bit of truth in it until you or police don't align with what they see fit. the university of south california, for instance, has decided to cancel it's valid victorian speech at this year's graduation. after careful consideration, we have decided that our student valedictorian will not deliver a speech has come months, months while this is disappointing. so there's some must div way to safety. to be clear, this decision has nothing to do with freedom of speech. there's no free space and title meant to speak of the commencement. the issue here is how best to maintain

campus security and safety period. they claim that it's all for security reasons, but the real reason might just shop to as not the bottom is not shy from using her voice for the policy a cause. in her instagram biography, she links a profile, assign page for anyone interested to learn about how to sign her beliefs or no secret. so it's no surprise that she feels as if her university has a band and her and chose to silence her instead as to stresses by canceling her speech, the university is rewarding hatred and some of them and, and see palestinian voices have subjected me to a campaign of racist hatred because of my uncompromising belief in human rights for o. i was hoping to use my commencement speech during spy, my classmates with a message of hope. by canceling my speech, u. s. c is only given to fear and to vote in hatred. but she's not alone. daniel

saw a professor at the city university of new york with extensive years of teaching behind him was fired after he criticized israel's actions in gaza. the decision to pull my contract was made unilaterally by school president carol me and because of pressure she failed from outside of the university. i was fired because of my outspoken as about the united states and israel's ongoing genocide of the people of gaza. zionist forces with no relationship to the john jay college community dock, to me, friend me and ultimately gotten me fired. and well when it comes to those are declared themselves as the last bastions of free speech. they most definitely are quick to change their minds once something does not fit their narrative phrases such as genocide, ethnic cleansing or occupied territory when covering the warrant, gaza, our know goes for new york times during list several times. workers believe that these restrictions, according to the, is rarely narrative, i think is the kind of thing that looks professional and logical if you have no

knowledge of the historical context of the palestinians, riley conflict. but if you do know it will be clear how apologetic it is to israel, or how about when a b c presenter came under fire when describing israel's attacks and gaza as murders. it was a whole or deal on his own to the point where the prime ministers spokesperson was even demanding complaints to be made directly to the broadcaster impartiality in reference to the bbc is absolutely paramount. complaints should be raised to the bbc to also come in the usual ways if people feel they have issue with the way in which the bbc reported that. more broadly though, israel is an ally of the u. k. is the victim of a brutal terror attack. and clearly has a right to defend itself. we should all be careful without words at this time, particularly even hide them coming to tensions in the u. k. that same spokesperson highlighted that prime minister wishes to not would not have used the word murder

to describe those tens of thousands of beds in gaza. and no worries that everyone else came quick to israel's rescue. even by the bbc standards. this is shocking. buzz is real, does not get civilians. the country is defending itself from a brutal tire attack and making strenuous efforts not to harm civilians. the bbc should watch an immediate investigation into the slate just example of an on to is ro statement by one of its present as outrages biased from the bbc as well as the nation being its act, the actual victims seeking to defend themselves from further it size bite saturdays, have the stated aim of the store in israel mt and juice. i suppose the less than here is try to challenge their policies or say one wrong word about israel and you're going to be a disgrace. there's been some control to say about awards. i used when i was interviewing the foreign secretary. my final question was about the bas, the morality of the government's position. in particular,

the risk that the position could appear to look like active support for israel when it is under attack, but nothing other than words when e's real attacks, the mode is tens of thousands of images in pals students, i should have been clear that i was not expressing my own view, let alone that of the bbc. when i use the words mode, this double standards, hypocrisy is freedom of speech. even we'll in the world at this point, or is it just the facade they're using to continue to scold every other nation on please page whenever they see fit? the georgia prime minister says the government's will not scrap pittsboro an agent spill despite the criticism coming from some countries announced as protest just have gathered outside the parliament building in the castle. said lacy for a 3rd day in a row 7 straight to the waving jordan on the you side since they can done the legislation, which is aimed at providing more transparency about the store and funding of

n g o media outlets in the country. the ongoing riley seems peaceful so thoughts and protest and violence on tuesday. it's demonstrates as cost with police the a while on tuesday, all correspondent donald cause it was detained by george and all star attorneys upon arrival, into lazy, to cover the ongoing protests. he was eventually deported to rush it off to being held at the pool for hours and he's here in the studio with me now. don't many things very coming in. so you've been through quite a lot over the past 48 hours just to talk and see what exactly happened when you

touch down in georgia. well, everything was normal when i got up to the passport control person there. i mean, i gave them, i have dual citizenship, a russian passport, an american passport. i gave them my russian passport as so i entered as a russian citizen and there was quite a bit of time that went by a for just kind of sitting there. and i was like, is there a problem? and she said that there was a that the system that they were using didn't want to accept my documents. i thought that was kinda strange. nothing like that. it ever happen to me before. but she just asked me to wait for a little while one hour went by 2 hours ago by nobody's explaining why i have why i'm still waiting. obviously, a program doesn't take that long to load up, but no information is being given to me. and by 3 hours i'm, i'm starting to already message our producer in moscow saying, you know, i think it's time to get in touch with the russian foreign ministry with the embassy and in georgia because something isn't right here. this has never happen to me before. and it's

a good thing we did that because just about an hour after we decided that um 4 hours total me waiting for this. uh suppose a glitch in the system. they come up to me with a piece of paper, half george and half english. so it's a list of reasons why someone might be refused from the country and a little check mark next to other on the paper they said, i'm not being allowed them to the country. i'm like, uh, you know, what, what is this other reason? can you explain in detail what, what the problem is? and they said, no, this gave me this piece of paper. they said sign, it was like no. and the so after that they were like, okay, well, we're supporting you at that point. it was about 5 pm and they said at 11 pm, we're gonna, we're gonna send you on a flight back to moscow. um, but then they brought me to a separate room and they took away my phone without any explanation as to why or if i would get it back and then give me any opportunity to contact people, let anyone know what was happening. and they told me i wasn't able to leave this

room. i asked them i being detained and they said neither. yes nor no. they just didn't say anything. and there was a police officer there who seems to be trying to make small talk with me asking me what i did and everything. and then he started asking me very specific questions about what i plan to do there and everything i just said i wasn't gonna answer any questions which anyone in that situation really should do. and then they brought me to another room that had some old beds and there was nobody else there. and they just had me waiting there until 11 pm. essentially. luckily they didn't think to uh, check my bag. i mean, i had my laptop with me that allowed me to use this airport wifi. that for some reason was accessible from this room. i was able to message our producers and give them all the information as to what was going on. i said, you know, don't message me back them, my phones will understand were messaging and then i waited it out there essentially until 11 pm. no information, not knowing what's going on. i mean, you know, especially since they didn't give me an actual concrete reason i'm,

i'm going to florida. it's the same a ukrainian hit list that daria do, gonna was on that. a lot of people that have been targeted by the ukranian authorities around. and there's a lot of pro ukrainian pro western sentiment in georgia right now. you know, i didn't know if there was, if, if they were uh, you know, cooperating with ukrainian security services on a really deep level. and some ukranian um, you know, secret police were gonna come in and take me away. i had no idea. but luckily they actually let me go at the 11 p. m. when they said they would, they brought me to the plain day, my passport back, and my phone. and then i was able to make it back to rush at like 4 in the morning . and i'm very happy to be back in fresh answer, although it's good to have you back done. so you're doing no official reason why you need it to be just put the posted from georgia. but what possible reasons could that be? do you think? well, i think in hindsight, looking at everything, the main reason was probably because i was going there while this unrest connected to this for an agencies bill that the truth that they're passing through parliament

was going on. i was there last year when the parliament tribes and ultimately failed to pass a very similar law. and there were riots on the streets protest. i mean, anyone who watches our t regularly has seen my coverage of that. i mean people are throwing rocks there. the police responding with to your gas, there was throwing the protests or throwing molotov cocktails, even it was a crazy of the but very violent scene. and apparently, i'm my guess is that the authorities didn't want me to cover that for some reason. maybe they thought the, my coverage made the georgia government look bad or something. i'm not sure. so the whole reason we wanted to send you to was that to cover the protest, we wanted to know exactly what was going on. but that was you called guys. okay, do we have any idea of what the situation is right now on the ground? well, protests are continuing. of course we have seen some reports of uh, you know, a violent outburst of breaking out on these protests. we've got some, we've got a lot of official reactions as well. for example, the president of georgia who was very western oriented. she said that after she was

asked by a journalist, if she would veto this bill, when it goes through parliament, she said she absolutely would, looks like it was while you going to veto the little because if it does indeed possible the stages of parliament as president of the nation, you do have the right to usual because i mean, these are going to be slow, leak all the other little. that's not to me. it's to start teaching at school in case recommendations of the european union. that is pretty obvious though with the georgia in present deciding that she's going to veto this legislation. but she's really just putting on a show because even she herself said earlier that if she would go through with a veto of this bill, it's very likely that because of the massive support that it has from georgia in parliament, it would just get over written by the george and parliament and this legislation would go through anyway. so i guess we have to ask the question, who is she putting on a show for me?

i would say her western patrons were the loudest voices outside of georgia, calling this for an agency legislations, some sort of pro russian legislation where it needs a contradiction with western values. the same countries that are funding and sponsoring these non n g o is non governmental organizations in georgia that are basically manipulating public opinion against russia and china. the most recent comment we have is from the use policy cheap foreign policy chief brother joseph brown. we transparency of for nathan slow is not in line with e, u norms and values. if adult that it was limited, csl and media would have freedom of expression. we urge leaders to refrain from adults and legislation that can compromise judges. a bath. susan, why? western countries are really obsessed with this new bill, which they think it might violate the democratic values i suppose to put does a bill rarely contradicts these bodies?

well, i would say no. i mean, the main thrust behind this legislation with just means that organizations would have to register in a government database that they received over 20 percent of their income from foreign sources. and this is not something that's specific to georgia. i mean, the european union itself has similar for an agency legislation. it's just they call it a defensive democracy package, not an actual for an agencies law. and if we look at the united states, there's been a for an agencies law there as well. since the mid 20th century, actually. so there's plenty of western countries that have legislation like this that are aimed at controlling for an influence in the country. we also heard from the kremlin spokesman, spoke to person, demetrius coffee, said that russia has no interest in getting involved in georgias, internal political affairs, and that this law has nothing to do with russia. so despite all these, you know, georgian liberals and western politicians and figures saying that this has something to do with russia,

it looks far from it was on monday. thanks for coming in and bring this up to speed on. the situation obviously is donald cool with the thank you. well, in the air is gearing up for the world's largest exercise of democracy and that he won't be invoked his will take to the polls in a month long parliamentary election with a fast face tossing this friday. and we're bringing you all special coverage off the crucial event. the so colorful celebration is a thing seen on the streets of india as millions present at the cost the ballots. later this week, many people have done this thing in the streets which also started with convoys of most of bikes and cos. sourcing this month, c, elections were run full 7 phases on the schedule to finish it in 2 indians will choose that representative didn't be low, a house of parliament. the low cost on the policy with the majority will form

a news for the government sound to point one of its winning tons of dates. as prime minister sees india correspond to runs and sean, or explains victoria shoes taking center stage and the poll to the elections in india there's, there's obviously always very, very unpredictable. it doesn't, but the issues this uh why is the unemployment for example, or say for example, the rising cost of living. that is what the old position is basically to are getting the range and will be on the also thing that under the range of movie in the gong, less sex, you know, for countries. so there's a dozen political bodies of india. these are, these notes always is well national buttons as well. so they've come together, they found an alliance called the india alliance and v, i'll basically giving the challenge to maureen's movie and all of these issues, unemployment rising prizes a new form and comes for example. so the election really are a mix over

a lot of there's a lot of talk to really have to be in the right down india now is becoming follow for global voice and of id. so when you look at the g 20 presidency, you've been the last 2 ups. there was a me, she huge and with india had become the voice of the global solid. so what it did was it's coordinated harvey, just confused together from the global south and on that issue was and then it has ended on a global course. adobe file was that form like the g 20 was where many of these countries i'm never able to talk about the issue. so india, in that sense, managed to become the voice of the cold and solid support. also, it does become a balancing force. that's what india is being seen as um, by exports. therefore, in your voice, the global stage has become a very, very follow full and the range of more the knows that, that it's happened on the, his, the chip and he's, he's really talented for that success. well,

they stay with us throughout this week and in the coming months as we bring to you, all special coverage of india is parliamentary elections that will run through june stats. this friday, april the 19th to be found. the of the telegrams, social media joins people do. rosa has broken his silence to american journalist tucker calls and giving his 1st interview and he is speaking of his whole office and due by the russian bone entre pinero, explain why he hasn't set ups of salt in the united states, or we got too much attention from the, the at the i, the security agency is wherever we came to the us. i brought an engineer that is working for telegram and there was an attempt to secretly hire my engineer behind me and back by cyber security officers. officers were agents that were trying to persuade him to use certain open source tools that he would then integrate into the

telling us code that the mind the same would serve as backdoors would allow the us government to spy on people who use telegram the u. s. government to maybe any other government because of backstory is a back door, regardless of who is using it. so many interesting things that he mentioned, especially the fact that he had his b. i. agents, as he said, show up at his doorstep, inquiring about him why he left russia. what telegram is all about entitled to upset? it seemed like they were trying to establish a relationship with him and the connection. and as we just heard that they were trying to employ one of his engineers, they're also interested in the fact that he says that he was contacted by both parties asking for completely different things. one was asking to share the data or else the other one say, well, if you share the data, you'll face punishment. that's here. after the events of january of the 6, we received a letter from i believe,

clinic with many of the democratic side. and they requested that we would share all the data we had in relation to what they called this authorizing the letter. it seemed very serious and the letter said, you know, if your fail to comply with this request, he will be in violation with them in the us constitution or something. 2 weeks after that, where we got another letter in new, other from the republican side of the congress. and there we read that if we give out any data that according to the previous request would be in violation of the risk of solution. so we got to the letters that said, whatever we do with the file,

anything serious constitution, it's funny, right? because he left russia in pursuit to all of this freedom of speech, which is why he went to the united states. and then that's what he got in return, because just to remind our viewers again, he left the russia sites in government pressure apparently from a store. it's, he's back in 2011 to shut down the pages of opposition politicians back on this conduct c, v k, which is the equivalent of facebook in russia and he was the owner of that back then. so he refused to do that. then a couple of years after that, he said that he got pressure again from authorities to release the data regarding ukrainian protests leaders. and again, he refused to do that and a telegram, let's not forget was he them blocked a rough show for 2 years. but of course, so horror it is quick, they realize that they, it's quite hard to block something these days. i'm sure as you are but nose as well or with archie. so telegram returns and people do, of decided to leave russia in pursuit of his freedom of speech to try various

countries before the united states. he tried single poor, he tried germany as well in germany, didn't work out for the project reasons because he wasn't aware that your regulations require you to hire local as far as even if he can find it isn't if he can't find any one. and then finally as the realize that us was a disaster. so it was, he got mugged in san francisco and he settled and the u. a, but he seems to be happy. so in his pacific needs to provide to this platform that offers a, you know, a voice a so if every person regardless of use how they succeeded. yes, he calls it a neutral platform and that they only supposedly sensor child pornography. busy terrorism something really violent and then he said come to e u pressure and band arts, these channels, for example, especially in europe, is there a near be can not on telegram read are these channels. if you are a russian and other countries, you can, but that in itself shows and proves that telegram is not unusual and they're going

by what e u officials want them to do? actually, the most pressure who received was not from the countries government agencies. it was from apple and google, and let's not forget that some ports in the why, because you need apple or google to download telegram. so this is what he had to say about the pressure of he felt from them. largest pressure towards those room is not coming from governments. it's coming from apple and google. oh, so when it comes to freedom of speech, those 2 platforms, they could basically censor whatever it is you can read access on your smartphone. so, i mean, do you run the risk of being thrown out of their stores? exactly, and that's what they make very clear that they fail to comply with their guidelines . so the cause i told them can be removed from the stores. also interesting,

a final note talk across and asked some, do you think you're being spied on by the, on the say, the national security agency and it says, well, i can't know 4 or 5. but i assume so because he says that he has very limited faith in apps that are developed in the united states in terms of privacy. so coming from paddle do or of i thing car that says that all the mean wall in the flooded regions of eastern russia was the levels in the table with which runs around the city of gun a rising by the hour this morning. they reach new highs, 8 and a half meters, pushing local dams on the store as multiple districts in the region, urging their residents to evacuate as fast as possible to he's not gonna be china as has moved from the scene slots marching all across russia. se we are in the capital of gun region in the city of gun itself. the level of water in the river, the city lies on has almost doubled in the last 24 hours. because reason up to

almost a to meet as well. the critical point for a city is not in because most of the dams are on the city, on 9 meters high and well local authorities cool situation, something close to be called critical. they say that the city is between on the brink of collapse because the city itself lies in the lowlands. so when or if the damsel would be breached that would be at the district to complete the catastrophe for, for hundreds of thousands of people, almost $15000.00 people have already been evacuated to move off to be evacuated. vocal man, just yesterday aust. peace fellow citizens quote, help us to help you please evacuate when the down would be breached that would create an almost an amount of pressure for all government agencies. because now the main agency who's in charge of handling the crisis, russian emergency ministry, the they are not enough. but when the city.
