i. i. can't believe. this is really. a. c.n.n. producer caught on camera apparently saying apparently the channel doesn't have proof from russia only covering the story for ratings tell me more about that coming up. against the assad government after claiming damascus is preparing to use chemical weapons in syria look into those other gauge . more trouble for the british prime minister get short shrift of a. deal now with a minor party to prop up a government as well yes they too is a struggle from brussels over. at least it isn't rights.

for ministries now warning turkish presidential security guards not to turn up next ones g. twenty summit after they were involved in a violent incident in washington recently. good morning for me kevin owen it's here in moscow this choosing the twenty seventh of june our top story then. from c.n.n. the american news channel has been apparently caught on camera saying that the network's russia coverage is more about ratings than solid facts investigative journalist group project veritas as released a hidden camera video conversation is a clip although ati's not yet able to verify its authenticity the more confident.

we like russia the structure the. business ratings his ratings razor battle right now but honestly if you think. it's just like. it's mostly the right no we don't have any. giant. proof as to that they don't really have that they they want to keep doing. things i didn't president probably right to say. look who are we're trying to. well we've contacted c.n.n. and the people who've released the video for their comments we'll let you know as soon as we hear from both parties more of our correspondent joins me. more about this ok part of this is a c.n.n. stuff we checked out. depends what you think about the way this was done or not but tell us a bit more about this video talk about the people behind it what about the allegations here where it's come from what we should be cautious here careful even we've you

know been trying to verify what we what we can there really is a stuff a called james bone of field a c.n.n. producer listed on their web site visually he certainly looks like the guy in the video we've asked c.n.n. for government we're still waiting on a response but you know boy if true has john o'keefe the guy behind the veritas project has he really pulled a number on c.n.n. because ratings trump all that is what this video says according to him c.n.n. has now mentioned russia sixteen thousand times just since trump was elected c.n.n. has really beat at the forefront of all these russian shenanigans they've gone to breaking news that the mere mention of russia you know unconfirmed reports near rumors that unverified sources good enough to talk about russia they've been trying to tie trump and russia as hard as they can for

a very long time now you know the results well let the people judge but it is certainly cost them c.n.n. both. reputation wise and with their relationship with the white house for example three c.n.n. staffers of just resigned after that story entirely fake story the church tried to try to rush out financially that was taken down by c.n.n. and those staffers of obvious you know felt that they need to resign perhaps even forced to resign it is also soured cnn's relationship with the white house. can you give us a question. you know if you are not going to give you. you are fake do. network i just want to ask you sir i'm changing it from news though doesn't that under very fake arch you. knew seriously so that as well you could see you could

see the look at his eye could you ok let's go back to this video. whether or not whatever you think about the way it was captured eccentric cedric setters are interested to hear this guy say this but project very in the past been in the water for the way it's carried out its investigations side of it gives them some balance is what project there is asked of the guy behind that james o'keefe he's made a name for himself he shoots these candid recordings usually under cover where people are much more on this than they would be in front of the camera and he said you know five of the democratic party in the united states targeted them a number of times and that has landed him in trouble because one company has sued him and now faces a million dollars lawsuit after infiltrating in alleged democratic consulting for posing as someone else and secretly secretly recording them he says that that is an intimidation tactic that they're trying to intimidate him and we've again we've

contacted them trying to verify this story but as i said if this is true it certainly you know would certainly huge let's see how c.n.n. wriggles out of this one because if it doesn't than that very very think new moniker that. itself is going to stick or it well will continue to follow the twists and turns of this and the say we have contacted c.n.n. and the people who released this video for that comment if we hear any more we'll let you know about it. with allegations of trump russia ties appearing almost every week now many voters say they've grown weary of investigations the latest polls suggest that most sixty percent of americans think the probes into trump's alleged links to the kremlin and damaging the economy the majority would like to see the moment has shifted focus to other issues such as health care jobs and national security even the democratic

members of the pavement of the democratic party say they go enough to try to ban russia is damaging their own brand every day americans are being left behind because russia russia russia do we need all five hundred thirty five members of the congress to deal with russia we're not focusing on the economic messages people in an ohio don aren't really talking about russia or michael flynn or putin or anything else they say what the heck do the democrats stand for ryan has a point here we better stand for something and it can't be baby steps i think it is interesting that that the polling now says that americans no longer view this as something that's important in the life of their government or the lives of their nation there's a harvard study out a few weeks ago that talked about the level of hysteria in the mainstream media about the trumpet ministration found out that it was the most negative coverage ever in covering a new administration journalistic ethics have collapsed in the year of trump because they're so desperate to harm him so that explain for

a long time why the president why the public was concerned and why the polling numbers were so low and now the polling numbers are recovering it's not because the press has been less hysterical it's because the people have finally had it with the mainstream media don't believe them anymore and would like us all to move on and talk about something substantive and the operation of the nation. well the big news in this morning the white house claims the syrian government is preparing to launch a chemical weapons attack president trump's press secretary says the u.s. will take action if that happens. the united states has identified potential preparations for another chemical weapons attack by the assad regime the united states is in syria to eliminate the slum extent of iraq and syria if however mr assad conducts another mass murder attack using chemical weapons he and his military will pay a heavy price within the past couple of hours to britons to phone circuitry has pledged the u.k. support for any u.s. action to prevent another chemical attack in syria why go follow admits he hasn't

seen the intelligence that washington is basing its allegations on the warning let's get some more on this small middle east coast paula what exactly is the white of saying about this chemical attack that's supposed to be being planned give us more detail. well the wording of this white house statement is certainly very interesting they say that they've detected potential preparations that would likely result in mass civilian casualties they talk about the mass murder of innocent children and certainly in order to be able to sell a message as serious as this you need that kind of emotional pitch that talks about innocent children being killed the statement also references potential preparations but it doesn't give any kind of details as to what those potential preparations involve so what does it mean other than that it is similar to what the u.s. detected before the last chemical attack back in april the statement also says that

any chemical attack in syria in the immediate future will be blamed on its side and his allies now this is without any kind of investigation without any kind of due process just punishment it's worth looking at the timing of the statement as well as side and his army are making major gains inside the country especially against terrorist groups such as islamic state at the same time in southern syria battles are going on in the golan heights part of which was annexed by israel and is not recognized by the international community now there at the side is fighting predominantly the all nusra front and some of those errant show. goals have landed on the israeli side of the golan heights in the last few days we've seen israeli forces attacking assad government positions and accusing the assad army of launching projectiles into israeli territory the country's defense minister avigdor lieberman warned that the situation is hot and that israel won't turn a blind eye to what is happening. there are many prophets predicting a hot summer they say there will be a war but we have no intention of initiating

a military act but we won't let anything pass whether it's just spillage or not everything will get a powerful response. strong words from israel's defense minister but he doesn't seem to have any problems when it comes with incidents happening with islamic state that has many here fronting upon islamic state launched an attack on israel in the past and there were no repercussions take a listen to the country's former defense minister. there was one piece recently you were dying for and apologized. so on the one hand you have israel threatening retaliation you have the united states promising punishment you have a side saying that he will defend himself and then you have allies of assad saying that they will back him so you certainly see in syria this mix that really presents a kind of time bomb that is ready to blow up at any time.

more developments but syria meantime russia and the u.s. are trying to resolve the differences over the country foreign minister sergei lavrov. to listen spoke by phone in a call initiated by washington it's the first time if they've spoken since the doubling of the syrian military jet by the u.s. more than a week ago the diplomats partly discuss the need to consolidate a cease fire in syria under suppress attempts to use chemical weapons by any party in that conflict so also stressed the need for the u.s. to avoid any further provocations against the syrian government like the downing of the plane. from the antiwar i'm sick coalition told us there's no clear clean line no clear line right now of decision making in washington about how best to proceed in syria the initiative at least from the secretary of state might reflect the fact

that there could be a debate going on inside the trumpet ministration and a division of opinion that maybe one position in the u.s. government and then there's another position. which incentivizes war which says war is good business which will recognizes the fact that while the u.s. can't win in syria can't overthrow the assad government but by continuing the conflict it strengthens its position following the defeat of isis in other words they have a dog in the fight in the post war sort of reorganization of syria there may be a debate going on in washington or at least your resolution in other words uncertainty about what the u.s. position really should be. this is very very little applause for the british prime minister's solution to propping up a week of this morning she's spending an extra one billion pounds on northern ireland to do it in order to get the provinces democratic unionist part of the d.p. to support her in parliament next analysis and couldn't reports on how it might not

be the damage control that mrs made be hoping for it was some other enough sailing for theresa may until she decided to make things just a little bit better for herself instead it was a miscalculated gamble and easy grab of an overwhelming parliamentary majority turned out to be a far off dream the prospect of a stronger negotiating hand with brussels crashed and burned with a hung parliament putting teresa mayes future into question. no no no. no no no no. no no instead of stepping down the british prime minister had a different plan but it seemed like whichever way she turned there was potential for trouble the tories have penned a deal with the democratic unionist party of northern ireland which is opposed to a hard bracks it something may has accepted as a possibility on top of that the d u p have been criticised for their policies on same sex marriage and abortion as well as previously inks with violent paramilitary groups in northern ireland not a perfect ally but the attendee u.p.a.

m.p.'s have been crucial for theresa may so much so she was ready to pay their support came with a hefty price tag of one billion pounds to be spent over the next twenty years the . in addition to the previously announced five hundred million funds to northern ireland and who is footing the bill you may ask as always the taxpayer tax payers resent politicians cooking up deals behind closed doors that invariably end with their cash being thrown wherever is politically advantageous rather than where it could be best spent to recently called it a good deal and the do you be are delighted if you think the same applies to scotland and wales think again this is the worst kind of pork barrel politics which just shredded the last vestiges of credibility with this we can prime minister it is outrageous that the prime minister believes she can secure her own political future by throwing money at northern ireland well as completely ignoring the rest of the u.k. despite the british government having now plastered together a solution the question is for how long will it stick after all the irony is that

a mere seven tory m.p.'s switching sides would potentially be enough for a majority to slip away and if they see it you're going to party landed political writer journalist don't glazebrook told us he believes the conservatives only option is to buy favor here because their agenda is left them isolated the people of northern ireland have a snoot been sold short or sold out you might say by the d.p. because actually the deal that the d.p.s. signed up to although it's got this you know media buying of one billion extra one billion pounds of extra investment in infrastructure health and education actually in the long term is going to going to be detrimental to the people of northern ireland because. the do you have agreed to support all of the conservatives legislative proposals on bricks in a minority government in principle does not have to be based just on making financial bribes to two other parties for its support but this this option is not

really available to the conservatives because they're completely isolated in terms of what they want to do in parliament. as a footnote to this speaking outside downing street the d u p leader echoed series of may's claim that the agreement would bring stability to the entire country will continue to follow it meantime the u.k. prime ministers also outlined a plan for you citizens living in post brics it britain affluence specify a cutoff date it seems they'll be able to apply for permanent residency so that families quote what we split up. i know there's been some anxiety about what would happen to citizens at the point we leave the european union. today i want to put that anxiety to rest my despite the reassurances though the plan faced harsh criticism opposition leader generally called me awfully well the ostend prime minister still insists she's the best person to get a good deal for britain yeah it was. in the

crowd was incredibly believes she is the best person to strike a deal with the very people she spent the last six months threatening and a victory the truth is this country needs a new approach to brecht's it that a tory government simply cannot deliver the european reaction the german chancellor welcomed the offer for citizens in the u.k. it's a good start but the show and she went on to warn that there'd be many other issues to resolve to the european commission president earlier described the plans as a first step but added that it won't be enough meantime the dutch belgian an austrian leaders dismissed a recent maize offer is questionable and of a british political commentator adam gary told us bret's it is not on the right track it's an absurdity on top of a colossal inadequacy about as streamlined as the potholed filled roads that i'd travelled on to get to this studio it's simply absurd and it's simply silly and

it's a bad political move it's a total dysfunction when all that would take for the government is to say look there's going to be a simple process and let's have a long long grace period at that where people just need to show this is who i am i am not a criminal here i am give me some stamp or some other similar item whether it's an id card or something else but instead more bureaucracy rather than less and i think what a lot of people are going to find a lot of u.k. citizens are going to find that were a lot of people vote. for breaks it to try to rightly cut down on red tape and cut down on bureaucracy it's simply going to be a matter of meet the new bureaucrat same as the old bureaucrat this is international on the way here getting heavy with a heavy zweig germany's telling the turkish president to keep his bodyguards away from the forthcoming g twenty.

in case you're new to the game this is how it works not the economy is built around court. confirmation from washington washington post media the media the voters elect the businessman to run this country business it. must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and should. somehow want to. have to go right to be close it's like that before three of the more people. interested always in the waters of. the ship.

headed next month's g twenty summit in germany then the country's foreign ministry has warned the turkish president not to bring his bodyguards there we go frances santiago looks at why i thought might be. president arrow on is planning to appear in germany next month for the annual g. twenty summit and it looks like the red carpet won't be rolled out for the turkish leader apparently the incident with his security detail during his recent washington visit as put e.u. officials on alert saying please don't bring your bodyguards. i have reason to expect that these people who be incriminated by the american criminal justice system will not step on the german soul in the forseeable future including during the g twenty summit and nother no no on the list for president on

rallies major venue so far have declined to host a direct leader the reasons were quite interesting and ranged from renovations to sorry already booked magine the u.s. president coming to germany and failing to find a place to appear not very likely but then again should we be surprised tensions between germany and turkey have been building up for months now starting with germany pulling its military from turkey is airbase and sending it to jordan after ankara denied german officials a visit to the big house on the other hand you've got turkey angry with germany for granting asylum to turkish citizens who allegedly took part in the failed cool of twenty sixteen and of course girl and also stepped in to stop turkish rallies in germany to support or want to push for broader powers in a referendum back in april germany you have no notion of democracy your practices are no different from the nazi practices of the past my comment that the nazi

comparisons in turkey's part must and is valid without ifs or buts and fortunately we see that this comparisons haven't stopped and we are not going to allow it. they would revive gas chambers in concentration camps if they weren't ashamed this is their mentality they are disturbed when we say that this is not. well it's no easy task piecing back together relations that have completely fallen apart one side will have to likely admit its mistakes and at this point it doesn't look my german or turkey are ready to do that because francis and thiago r.t. their expert opinion on where german turkish relations stand and at the moment. but everyone can see so weeks ago exactly these lifeguards misbehaved badly and this is exactly will generally don't want to see on its own territory ok in turkey we have some you know mistakes related to democracy and some shortages but

they should help us to improve it better than to you know to push turkey towards the east if you look at germany politics what's tricky over the last few years in germany has accepted every. inch of lightness in every the relations of the church thought and this has gone too far and now a lot germany tries to set limits europeans are champions of democracy on whom arise when we speak about the middle east but then. speak about the home arise and move number ites in europe they are you know of some kind of double standards and hypocrisy as the strongest economy in the world and the strongest military power i guess that those europe and the u.s. have. to react in

a proper way and to sit and to see to to chookie. we want to be part of you but accept a rules if you don't accept the rules you have to accept that did we are a little bit harder that used to be elections are coming up in germany and they try to use you notice some kind of islamophobia or to go for b. or xenophobia that's a very a famous in order to turn your scene jorma these kind of things and they started again i think it will carry on up to the next election in elections in germany in there and off or i think autumn then. the relations who will be. normal after that. italy some to full cut up to seventeen billion taxpayer euros to wind down to fail banks that now we ask people whether they're ready to bail out more of the bank is also good for you. this is money that's been taken

from our pockets why should we have to worry about saving the failing banks there are so many other priorities hospitals schools and small businesses are in crisis if politicians want to help they tell an economy they should start with the middle class not saving the banks we've had enough not now it's not right the banks do not deserve to be given this money the people who made the banks fail should be held responsible because a lot of these very angry about the situation i work hard to earn money we can't go on like this in a complete anything more it's completely immoral we're all angry because we keep being. bank manager should take responsibility for these failures not small time savers like me to go to school get some help from the country's biggest retail banking tester some power which will take all the good assets the rest those being hived off into a toxic bank at taxpayer expense artie's financial guru max kaiser describes the

situation is financial terrorism. well as we've been talking about since two thousand and eight nothing was done to change the climate in the banking sector that has been given carte blanche to make loans to their friends at zero percent interest rates and occasionally when those bad loans are able to be accounted for the central banks the governments like angela merkel bail them out they simply bail them out so far the amount that has been spent bailing out crooked bankers is approximately seventeen trillion dollars the european central bank of the federal reserve bank bank of japan have indicated that they're willing to bail out another seventeen or twenty trillion dollars worth of crooked loans so this could go on for a while but the social cohesion risk is mounting and the violence on the streets is increasing but governments unfortunately are in the pockets of these financial terrorist. draggy at the european central bank. this is alex international coming

up after the fear in the philippines these days as squads roam the streets that join the president's ongoing brutal war on trucks. here's what people have been saying about rejected in the senate just pull on. the only show i go out of my way to. really packs a punch. is the john oliver of america is doing the same we are apparently better than. the c. people you've never heard of love jack to the next president of the world bank so.
