yellow vest protests began in mid november and have since evolved into a wider revolt. against mccrone protesters accuse him of favoring the elite three people have been killed in the violence. while new tensions between russia and the west are set to dominate a nato meeting in brussels today the u.s. is expected to use the gathering to increase its pressure on moscow to comply with the one nine hundred eighty seven treaty on nuclear weapons washington accuses russia of violating what's known as the i.n.f. treaty moscow denies the claims for now europeans have persuaded the u.s. to delay plans to withdraw from the treaty but as the w.'s teri schultz reports fears are growing that europe security could be under threat. european leaders know the moment is near when the nuclear agreement between washington and moscow
1:13 pm
a traditional safeguard of their security will be declared dead we all know that the time is running out. that this is not tenable but we have enormous one troll agreement which is all respected by one part of nato secretary general un stoltenberg emphasizes the dangers of the missile russia has developed which goes beyond i.n.f. limitations on flight ranges it is hard to detect it is nuclear capable and it could reach european cities with little or no warning time numerous u.s. briefings have convinced european allies that moscow's missile arsenal makes a mockery of the treaty but even as europeans acknowledge that some are doubtful killing the i.n.f. willing crease their security this of course is of concern to europeans because the europeans are in the line of fire and they're in the line of fire between the russian cruise missiles and of the united states decides to bring back cruise

missiles on the european continent who would be the first star get europe so this is the interest friends secretary of state might pump aoe shown here visiting nato in april was expected to formally announce i.m.f. withdrawal this week in brussels which would kick off a six month period until the exit is final but european leaders wanted a two month delay and their last minute interventions appear to have won out the announcement is now expected in february the german marshall fund bruno lettuces europe needs to act now and examine his wider security as the i.n.f. is just one of the former pillars now crumbling the question for europe and the nato allies in general is do we want to try to save those three days of the ninety's that no longer work do we want to try to save and change them or do we want to get rid of all these structures of the ninety's and come up with something new the problem here however is that there is nothing new on the table and this is perhaps something that the nato ministers should really start thinking about especially because there's no sign so far that russian president vladimir putin is

thinking about changing course. so what's nato likely to do for the outlook this morning let's go to w.'s teri schultz in brussels good morning terry what can we expect today at this nato meeting will the u.s. delay pulling out of the r n f the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty yes i've heard from several sources both inside and outside nato that less meant last minute discussions with european leaders at the g. twenty convince president trump that waiting a couple more months until the february defense minister ariel wouldn't be so bad it would give more time to put pressure on russia it would ease european allies concerns that not everything had been done diplomatically to try to bring russia back into compliance with the treaty before a six month period starts after which the treaty is defunct ok now president trump was tweeting yesterday that he wants new arms control talks with russia and with
1:16 pm
china what do native foreign ministers think about this approach well i'm sure that will come under discussion today when the meeting kicks off in a few hours but this in fact was one of the reasons the united states said it wanted to pull out of the i.n.f. treaty it said russia had already gone ahead with this missile this banned missile and that china of course was putting a lot of money into its military so the united states says why should it feel constrained by limitations on the range of missiles when these two other proliferator is are running ahead so if president trump really did enter arms talks that included both russia and china i think europe would feel reassured but at the moment there's no guarantee that would happen whether china is willing to play that game and whether russia in fact after the u.s. pulls out of the i.n.f. will be willing to enter back into multilateral negotiations on arms control but i certainly don't think any european would be against that ok and we'll find out later today from brussels from teri schultz what those discussions are looking like thanks very much for not are down for some of the other stories making the news
