donald trump jr rejects allegations of collusion with moscow over a meeting with a russian lawyer last june with the kremlin saying he has no ties to the government . to pause the displaced mosul residents are starting to return home fears are growing that they have nowhere to go as the iraqi cities liberation has left it utterly devastated. the british government comes under fire after revealing it won't publish a much delayed report on funding of extremism citing quote a national security reasons.

you're watching r.t. international live from our moscow studio with me welcome to the program. u.s. democrats on the media have rounded on donald trump's son over a meeting he held last year with a russian lawyer in response he's released the full email exchange from june twenty sixth detailing how the get together was set up trump jr was initially contacted by an intermediary who talked about handing over quote very high level and sensitive information via russian noir the info supposedly incriminated hillary clinton and was part of moscow's effort to aid his father's campaign it apparently originated from a crown prosecutor of russia although that job titles raised more than a few eyebrows in the media first because there is in fact a no such official position in russia the country not being a monarchy and there are other confusing aspects to the story to the scale of more explains the stories like a war shack test meaning that everyone sees

a different picture and most of the media sees a picture of collusion in trees. i think he was about to get help from a russian. or with ties to the kremlin this is looking more and more like treason intent to collude with the russian government all these strange behavior from the president it's all explains now that's not how trump jr sees it he says that nothing of substance was discussed at the meeting which he described as a name nonsense it was such a nothing. there was nothing to tell. no i wouldn't even remembered it until you start scouring through the stuff it was literally just a wasted twenty minutes which was a shame whatever the content was the characters involved with the meeting are certainly worthy of a good moving. every

week i come up i'm really tired of the five year. old over name now in the time you have this guy at natalia vessel meets guy at the new tal you have beslan at sky a. good story but why does everyone want to link this russian lawyer to the kremlin she works in adoption law and does not work with the russian government and why would the russian prosecutor choose all of these people to deliver sensitive information to the trump camp donald trump jr confirms

that this meeting was a big nothing burger he says she did not have any damaging information on clinton but instead that she wanted to discuss adoption law in the magnitsky act she confirms this. but i never knew who else would be attending the meeting so all i need to mr donald trump jr was willing to meet with me do you have connections to grow chicago. know furthermore if this meeting between the trump team in the russian lawyers was about handling damaging. from ation on clinton where is this bombshell we have yet to see any bombshell from the trump game about their opponent after months and months of proof related to russian trump being anticipated we finally have a story that's rather complicated in fact it's so complicated that you can see whatever you want the confirmation bias of the reader can lead the mind's eye to read whatever they want into the story if you're determined to see trump works for the russians you can see it even though the logical links just don't add up. are to

new york and to me jerry who wrote those e-mails to donald trump jr and some petition music publicist dropped goldstein he said he requested a meeting on behalf of his client a moscow based company johnny pump and collar off according to goldstein's e-mails a mystery a mysterious russian crown prosecutor who is described as the pest seen for some time hillary clinton met with a colorado father and contacted the lawyer the family has what he said. the only thing that's true is that in the effort. at the meeting the arranged goal is an entertainment industry publicist so i think it's fair to say that he was out of his element. in making these communications and. what he said was just not true it is not true that. meeting with

russian prosecutors. is not true that. a lawyer for the russian federation government we understand that she is a. practitioner who represents the clients it is not true that our understanding was that the purpose of the meeting was to talk about the campaign our understanding was only that the purpose of the meeting risc os. which is the issue that we understand it's. pursuing and interested in present time . he was among those trying to publish his emails in the name of transparency he offered to do it for him anonymously via wiki leaks and two hours later publish them himself political and legal analyst lionel told us that there's no substance in this story only the buzzword russia making it a point of discussion for the media whenever you hear about this trump collusion

meeting always ask the question and because that's what you have to do and die will drive junior met with this russian and he thought maybe he would have some apple research opposition research and and it turns out that she didn't but she wanted to talk about apparently adoption and and somebody said treason this does nothing here but let me tell you what is the saddest part we have been told russia russia russia russia to such an extent that maybe by virtue of this repetition there's been some kind of a cerebral connection made where people impute to guilt whenever that word is met and i'm not kidding you it's almost like a brainwashing there is absolutely nothing to this story

no matter how you look at it from anybody's point of view there is nothing there. that cameron has denied having any links to the russian lawyer who participated in the meeting spokes person to me to pacify to allegations of trying russia collusion have turned into a t.v. series which is trying to on for too long. we've never been in touch with this lawyer we have nothing to comment on that she has no ties to us this is all part of a long drawn out t.v. series which can compete with the most popular shows in america but there's no need to drag us into this we don't take part in such series. civilians are starting to return to the iraqi city of mosul after the government declared victory over islamic state in the area on monday however one of the most difficult task could still lie ahead as most of mosul has been devastated by nine months of fighting the u.n.

says it will take billions of dollars and to rebuild the city. calling to human rights watch the coalition used a number of weapons that are inaccurate and could be quote unlawfully

indiscriminate if used in heavily populated areas among them unguarded artillery rockets and mortars mccarren has more on the story. the liberation of mosul from islamic state has topped the news cycle over the past few days has been full of praise for the victorious iraqi and coalition forces and pictures of celebration victory over isis in mosul. celebrations in the streets of mosul and battle the iraqi city of mosul is now free of the biggest city in isis the so-called islamic state is in the hands of a lucky troops but against the backdrop of jubilation humanitarian groups crying foul over the plight of locals honesty international issued a fifty page report detailing the extent of civilian suffering calling out both iraq and the u.s. led coalition forces for repeated violations of international humanitarian law which it says could amount to war crimes honesty says there was

a reliance on imprecise weapons and ignorance to the growing civilian death toll and a failure to adjust tactics to the challenges created by i still of course you'd never expect much respect for civilian life from the terrorists known for using innocent people as human shields but it seems that those fighting isis somehow turned a blind eye to what they call collateral damage we have already shifted from attrition people probably shelled them from one position to another iraq syria to annihilation to a billion cattle or a fact of life in this sort of situation besides any additional needless deaths can just be blamed on the ruthless enemy anyway according to the u.n. the battle for mosul is left almost nine hundred thousand people displaced more than eight thousand civilians dead or wounded and one hundred thousand children at

risk sure it's heartbreaking now but if only way heard about it all sooner well the neighboring street. all but destroyed the street across rubble the street over there it's the same story wherever you look. around you little little. shops where had your garbage garment i am told mother. was sitting at my uncle's house how wrote her mother and whose wife went back home because howard was sick and the house was shelled by american planes i tried but i couldn't save how or from the shelling and the is strikes and i still go far in your thoughts and there was no i was when it comes to how the battle for most the will be remembered is themes these pictures of celebration at the liberation will live on in the media where the civilian suffering will be sufferance in silence. the u.s. led coalition has reacted to amnesty international's report calling it

irresponsible a spokesperson added the war is not pleasant and those who claim otherwise put the lives of civilians and soldiers at risk award winning journalist martin told us the battle in mosul isn't over. looking at possibly months or even the best part of a year before most people return but return to what you know i mean you should look at most of the old city in mosul is completely destroyed and we've seen in the past that this is a tactical war unfortunate by by i saw two to shamefully use these people is in support as buffers as literally human shields for the ordinance which is flying backwards and forwards from its destiny is rather sudden and uncertain one unfortunately in the longer term i think we're looking at. another war another. battle another conflict with new groups people will be signing up to isis takes over from isis but you can't really say that the battle is over and muscle. and the

liberation campaign is underway now as u.s. backed rebels prepared to seize icefall syrian stronghold of raka the u.n. says between thirty to fifty thousand people are currently trapped in the city almost two hundred thousand have already been displaced here are some of the stories assure you that actually i'm a little made of a dash dash well it's not as nesmith has met but you have on your little niche that actually your little bit of individual have a trace of what has been and the dome that has you had of all that and then has had little. to be of course never come through the bureau. at the height of you the realm of any. one as a member of you would lay a lot of verb issues what do i shouldn't as a mr haven't been up to one hasn't really the fact that there are huge numbers of

civilians there makes it very risky for the call that the u.s. led coalition to start such an air offensive similar to that of mosul for example already there are one hundred sixty thousand people civilians who are fled the area but there are more than one hundred fifty and the entire province that are still besieged by the terrorists there are not allowed to leave so therefore any sort of a campaign against the area will most definitely increase the number of civilian deaths and to be honest with you the u.s. has not made any sort of willingness to defend or to protect the civilians they put a plan and they go on with the plan and they don't take any concern whatsoever given the fact that there might be civilians. after the break we take a look at the u.s. russia relations a firing after the long awaited first encounter between presidents putin and trump .

well you on the idea that dropping. to the chicken hawks forcing you to. do socks for the tell you the lobby gossip the public by. telling you. to buy their product. that we all. want. to trump handshake at the g. twenty it's now part of history while they're reading appeared to go well both

presidents said so moving forward on this pilot relationship is problematic. are the u.s. and russia destined to be enemies. welcome back to the program anger is growing over the british government's refusal to publish the full report into funding of islamist extremism in the country the decision was announced by home secretary. i have decided against publishing the classified report produced during the review in full this is because of the volume of personal information it contains and for national security reasons. why more details on this story now from polly in london polly why do you think the decision as cause so much anger. well look a lot of politicians have been waiting a very long time for this report it was commissioned back in december two thousand and fifteen and eighteen months down the line it still hadn't been published and

the home office came under fire for that just a couple of months ago back in may the government admitted that the contents of the report were very sensitive and now we've had this very short quietly put out written statement by amber rudd the home secretary confirming that the report isn't going to be published at all it sparked a lot of anger from opposition parties first and foremost from the liberal democrats here in the u.k. in fact the investigation was promised to the liberal democrat party by the conservatives back in december two thousand and fifteen it was in exchange for the liberal democrats supporting the conservatives on extending as strikes to syria back then said the outgoing leader of that party tim farron he says the party has basically been juked by the conservatives and he said that the decision to squash the report is utterly shameful that the government needs to be naming and shaming the states and the institutions that fund terrorism in this country instead of

supporting them and he's referring of course to the speculation that saudi arabia and other the gulf allies of the u.k. could be named in that report the green party leader. rather caroline lucas she said that the statement gives absolutely no clue as to which foreign country. we. will be. potentially dangerous weather situations specially built receivers are automatically activated to warn of the impending. tests of the signal normally

philadelphia pennsylvania thank you for listening to no weather radio all hazards. really contains the mini and dollar question on this specific countries and why is the government determined to keep them secret. why indeed polly that's artie's polly boyko thanks for filling us in with the details as much as you have them. russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov has confirmed a joint center to monitor the cease fire in syria has been agreed with the u.s. and jordan his words run contrary to what's been said by washington with the state department claiming the matter is still being discussed still likes to talk a lot going to the world i don't know how this lady could know this like we're not acquainted and get out ahead i think of some of the negotiations that are underway

i don't know how things work at the state department terms of who has access to what. but the documents signed in amman but russia america jordan provides for the creation of just such a sensor that is all still being worked out nobody should get ahead of themselves before to keep abreast of the latest developments is also helpful for diplomats. and joint center in syria was one of several matters agreed by putin interim during their first encounter on the sidelines of the g. twenty summit last week however less than a week later it seemed in the u.s. administration a losing enthusiasm as jackley explains the highly anticipated biological meeting between donald trump and vladimir putin at the g. twenty summit and with high hopes that the two countries could finally leave all the bad blood behind and see a new stage in relations after the two presidents met in homburg tillerson came out saying that they had great chemistry they discussed cyber security and the cease

fire in syria and were really ready to move forward put an interim did discuss that joint cyber security unit but trump has since backtracked on that with a post on twitter after the idea was widely attacked here in washington and about that cease fire in syria the most important achievement reached by the u.s. and russia in conjunction with jordan moscow has already outlined what role in the suspension of high. still these they will play but america has yet to be clarified and recent reports show that the pentagon was left completely out of the process we reached out to the pentagon to see if they could shed some light on the plan and they in turn said that the state department was the head agency and referred us to them but they also have yet to come up with a solid strategy in terms of who was doing what when where or how some of those details are still being worked out is there a level of urgency in working that up because it seems like if you don't have monitoring we're going to force mechanisms. it's sort of incentivize people to

break it to those monitors will be i don't know at this point i know we have folks in the region i know that our special envoy to syria is actively engaged in these conversations so i anticipate we'll get that information in the in the near future so we're seeing again one step forward two steps back on what's becoming the usual u.s. approach to working with russia some of america's partners in europe have also pointed out the inconsistency of the countries approach to russia german government official has lashed out saying washington's policies are indecisive back and forth and with no clear direction from the u.s. diplomat jim believes there are too many opposed to resetting russia u.s. ties. if the russians believe the americans are talking with two voices that's because we are clearly i think president trump is very sincere in trying to work out some kind of a broader arrangement with moscow and they he faces tremendous opposition here in

washington from people who didn't want this meeting to take place at all or wanted to be at best a pro-forma handshake unpleasantries kind of thing not to affect any substance we have a lot of people here in the if you will in the deep state who don't want any cooperation with russia at all on anything particularly on syria and there is a huge potential that somebody may try to sabotage it but i am still rather optimistic. now emanuel micron has enjoyed a meteorite rise to the top first securing the french presidency and then a landslide election victory for his party but his ambitions make it even further touching by some of his actions. because since becoming a member of the national assembly it's been cooked meals cooked towns cooktown soldiers when.

they. do need to have been given those countries to have seven to eight children per woman you can decide to spend billions of years to not stabilize.

greetings and salutations you cannot have a revolution without dancing and you cannot have dancing without music revolution will always and forever be intertwined with music because most often it's the musician the poet who channels the rhymes and heart beats of change that often starts as a soft a logic whisper creeping out from the underground and then question nose into a grand opera of cultural change and up evil and that intertwined history is why the musician will always be an agent or instrument if you will of change their lyrics and melodies can shine a light on the injustices and bring attention to the under-represented and even helped bring down the giants themselves. today let's find out what come.
