twenty summit the u.s. president has tweeted that after a significant deal on syria it's time to move forward and work with russia but he may even be facing opposition to doubt from his own aides and officials the u.s. ambassador to the united nations and he has claimed that quote everybody knows russia meddled in the u.s. presidential election appearing to contradict donald trump's view that no one is sure. i think it was russia but i think it was probably other people and or countries and i see nothing wrong with that statement nobody really knows nobody really knows for sure everybody knows that russia meddled in our elections everybody knows that they're not just meddling in the united states elections they're doing this across multiple continents and they're doing this in a way that they're trying to cause chaos within the country or following the g twenty summit trump also tweeted that he on the russian president discussed the

creation of a special working group on cyber security the idea however was roundly criticized on the basis of russia's alleged hacking activities former u.s. defense minister russian carter even thought he could see an old soviet roots behind the leader's proposal because the russians pulled out the old playbook i've seen all this going back to russian and soviet days when confronted with something they've done wrong ask for us intelligence or trick let's bring in ben horace quiney the finder of the bow group a conservative think tank always welcome to the program ben i suppose the point i'm just listening to that when will solid incontrovertibly evidence actually be provided to back up all the hooking allegations or why indeed has it not been so far. well i think is the president. the truth is the no one knows in the. least very few people know very few people know because
9:03 am
there has been no clear evidence on either side what we do know however is the trumpet ministration is concerned about the allegations that have been made it has caused some drag on the early days of the administration but we also know that many of the accusations have been disproved. media networks like c.n.n. and the times of had their accusations proven to be false. so i think until there is clear evidence it is it is very difficult for anyone to act or anyone to form an opinion in the words of behavior that we heard there i think everyone's very interested to learn what information that she has to back up those comments what are your thoughts then on that joint cyber security union being
9:04 am
created bent would it be workable. i think there may be some areas the cyber security in the u.s. and russia could hold a partnership tackling isis would be the most obvious one. my understanding is that regardless of any cyber security policy there remains a strong commitment both from the u.s. and the russian side to work together to tackle isis. other than that i think it will be very difficult because of these rumors i suppose you would call them that continue to hang over the us election and i think that would need to be clarified before there was any deeper partnership between russia and the united states but i could see areas where combating isis could could could prove relevant in the cyber security arena and also of course combating terrorism in the west just on the point
9:05 am
you're making in your first answer how difficult do you think it will be for dollar trump to overcome the skepticism in washington and indeed for russia to shed the hacking image that it seems to have labelled on to. well i think sooner or later there will need to be some solid evidence for these hacking claims if no evidence of merges then i would imagine it would it would pass insert into history is an unsubstantiated claim if however ever to. dulls. i highly doubt that evidence will show collusion between the trumpet ministration. the administration of lot of mere putin but nonetheless if evidence emerges that russia did interfere on some level in the us election that i think that would be very significant for the future of the relations between the two nations and certainly would make intelligence cooperation very difficult benares twenty founder of the conservative
9:06 am
think tank the bow group thank you very much. i know some of the largest energy companies in europe have sloman the american threats to impose new sanctions on russia let's bring in charles dubin ski for more on this from paris charlotte dying through the years there's always been that kind of simmering resentment from europe that america is seeing this things when it has no direct effect on americans but it has on europe and russia one of the latest details here and this one. well this is about a pipe that's due to be built from russia right the way through to europe ending in germany and supplying a lot of the energy needs to the e.u. countries and what's happened is that some of the c.e.o.'s of some of the energy companies in europe have slammed these new threats of sanctions against this pipeline project by the american u.s. senate saying that it's unacceptable that they should be trying to meddle in u.
9:07 am
e.u. policy and what they've said is that they feel that this is an attempt by the americans to try and push their own policy only european union this is what they've been saying. the principle of american sanctions on a project that is not in us does not involve us that it's not in dollars it is an interference in the fears of european countries in that it's an acceptable the proposed sanctions not only affect russia but also europe and germany i appeal to all parties involved not to turn the project into a point of global politics and to leave the problem of europe's energy supply to europeans. it is unacceptable that european energy policy is now being made in the us. well a number of e.u. companies and countries that agreed to support this project it's called the nord stream two project and this is a pipeline that's due to be operational by two thousand and nineteen the end of two
9:08 am
thousand and nineteen and it's due to start in russia to be built underneath the baltic sea and then end in germany were then go on to other countries to supply the energy needs and the project is expected to cost around nine point five billion euros so this is a huge project indeed and it's under some uncertainty now with the potential of these threats by the u.s. senate now those threats of sanctions against moscow in this particular project still have to be passed by the house of representatives in the u.s. but if that is passed it really will put a big question over this project and whether it can deliver that energy needs to europe and supporters of this project say that it is absolutely needed to secure the future of energy in e.u. countries and what they've even done is gone as far as accusing essentially the u.s. senate of protectionism and suggesting that by threatening sanctions against a project like this to stop that gas coming from russia into the e.u.
9:09 am
that america would essentially be pushing its own gas supply its own e.u. member states and then protecting american workers so this is much more than a war of words this is an energy war that the e.u. companies say that america just shouldn't be involved in a tool you know well with deep implications as well live from the french capital sharla devinsky thank you. germany's chancellor angela merkel has been facing criticism for choosing homburg as the g twenty host city three consecutive nights of riots an unprecedented violence rocked several districts as world leaders gathered for talks last week the country's president germany hasn't witnessed such brutality in years. we have had violence of such magnitude demonstrations in germany in recent use there were apparently some who
9:10 am
acted ruthlessly. against police forces and also against the citizens well german police where i had to enforce over twenty thousand of them struggle to contain protesters with hundreds of officers left injured security forces in hamburg face criticism for failing to cope with the chaos. this video shows violent protesters in. shares and fireworks through shop windows with a pardon thing no sign of any police officers to contain the march. the images of burning cars and streets with debris left locals shocked international media outlets those faults these are some of the headlines chancellor merkel condemned the violence while many german politicians stressed that the left wing radical protests had been underestimated. dnd sensitive i don't want him to pull charlie teat of t.v. put it side a indecent cogging disk it's fun to get fits him if you don't get toughness. shelfs

9:12 am
while as the dust settles in homburg volunteer is helping helping to clean up the streets and restore shopfront unless we talk to say violent leftist groups have been in the area for years but nothing was done about. the left wing comments much more physical violence on the right wing this is something we know over here as of we see it for many years and nothing has changed yet definitely there has been much more violence on behalf of left wing. extremists but. also certain the difference in the targets and. the troops it is. a while and now that we have seen in hamburg which is really like a senseless meaningless. looks for media. appearance

welcome back to the program the iraqi prime minister has traveled to the city of mosul to declare victory over islamic state now that the terror group's former stronghold has been rick the p.m.'s convoy travel through mosul were only a small pocket of militants remain they are expected to be defeated soon celebrations sprung up nationwide to mark the victory. speech. well the mosul operation success has also been widely celebrated across the media it is not often on the show that we can break good news about iraq but today is one of those days the country's prime minister arrived in mosul today to declare
9:17 am
a great victory as he joined his troops to celebrate in the city they've lost many comrades along the way but today the iraqi security forces were firing their weapons in celebration claiming victory over their right. well the iraqi military along with u.s. support launched a campaign to liberate mosul from the last october since then human rights groups have raised serious concerns about the civilian casualties being caused by coalition forces.
9:18 am
the. world. we. live. in a quite incredible destruction their human rights watch to lismore up but the price paid by civilians for most of this liberation. operation to retake mosul particularly believe the end of the city that's been raging february has come at an incredibly high cost we've seen much of the west of the city completely destroyed by ground fire and by airstrikes and we've seen a mass spike in civilian casualties thousands of civilians being wounded and being
9:19 am
killed in the fighting so still this city has really paid a price for this operation. we were calling particularly on the u.s. led coalition to take more care in the way that it is conducting its bombing campaign and clue to kill or leave the tight and sizes of bombs that excusing to drop because of the large ball that are being dropped more and more frequently we've seen a massive increase in civilian casualties on the ground. unfortunately the general feeling among the coalition and the iraqi government is that because the meant to finish the operation has been on their side they've wanted to use all means to get it done as quickly as possible and as a result we haven't seen them willing to for example take certain types of weapons completely off the table so as to better protect civilians. and cern's are that with these civilian casualties we don't see accountability we don't see
9:20 am
american commanders taking responsibility and we don't see compensation for the victims. in the last few hours the high court in britain has ruled that u.k. arms sales to saudi arabia are completely legal the campaign group brought the case claimed british weapons are being used in the conflict in yemen and the location of the saudis strongly deny however the court rejected suspending export licenses for the seal or transfer of military equipment since the cold. in yemen began thirty arabia has spent more than three billion pounds on most about going on warplanes helicopters and drones the gulf monarchy has twice as many british made war planes in the u.k. zone royal air force the trade deals have been condemned several times in the british parliament. mr speaker thousands of civilians have been killed in yemen including a large number by the air force i actually done not using british built planes
9:21 am
the pilots who were trained by british instructors we have to put political pressure on the saudis this is being presented against saudi arabia against the people of yemen well absolutely garbage no wonder the countries in poverty other who are allowing these people to get away with it so far we do not believe the has been a clear risk of breach of international humanitarian law what matters is the strength of our relationship with saudi arabia on issues like dealing with terrorism on counterterrorism issues. according to amnesty international more than thirteen thousand civilians have been killed and injured since the beginning of the conflict the group called the courts the station a potentially quote deadly blow to yemen and several parties poly boy who spoke to one of the activists behind the legal challenge what's your response evolving and also what's the next step now however they were very disappointed very disappointed
9:22 am
on the behalf of the people of yemen where you know saudi the saudi forces that were flying you came a plane every job and you came and that's led to a country where seven million people on the edge of starvation where there's a kind of out outbreak where the saudis beat funerals project for forty people killed them are stepping up bomb and also the declaring. cities a military target so we're very disappointed with very angry will be appealing the opinion the judgment and you know i prefer arizona for the law says is by clear as says if there's a clear risk of serious violations of international humanitarian law then there is our. country and you know from what i can see him for what the vast majority of the british public can see as it very clear is that these violations that these weapons have been used to violate international humanitarian law you know the arms in. he has a big lobbying budget very effectively there's also the revolving door between the government and the arms industry you know you go top top civil servants in the i
9:23 am
