every hour you're watching live from moscow. thanks for joining us tonight we start with breaking news the u.s. ambassador to the u.n. has called for the complete isolation of north korea after its latest. spoke at an emergency security council meeting earlier. first we should continue to treat north korea as the international pariah it has become by taking its un rights and privileges away including it's voted. on in this you do get some more insight on this pretty harsh rhetoric from the u.n. envoy in the united nations. well they met up to discuss north korea's latest missile test in which of course you know they've launched a intercontinental ballistic missile that's capable of carrying nuclear weapons which some believe could reach could reach washington now ambassador haley echoed
7:02 pm
these concerns saying that war is possible if provoked by further acts of aggression but she seemed to even threaten destruction of the north korean regime so let's say the dictator of north korea made a choice yesterday that brings the world closer to war not farther from it now she also called upon every other country to cut off all ties with the d.p. r. k. including scientific ties diplomatic ties and trade ties in order to reverse the crisis so let's take a look at that as well. we call on all nations to cut off all ties with north korea in addition to fully implementing all u.n. sanctions all countries should sever diplomatic relations with north korea and limit military scientific technical or commercial cooperation in contrast russia urged against increasing tensions and again called for
7:03 pm
a political dialogue and the russian ambassador spoke so let's look at what he had to say. so difficult to move towards any settlement as long as north korea reveals that its security is not going to school in the current situation the only cool all parties involved to stop escalating the tensions that accompany each new cycle of reactions and response measures we all need to pause and think carefully about the consequences of such terms of god you know that's what now we're just waiting on north korea's response as of right now so we'll keep you updated with any developments. not decreasing the tensions certainly in the security council bring us up to date as they come in there was a mention there the u.n. security council emergency session was convened after north korea's latest political missile test minutes later south korea staged its own missile exercise. if this isn't strike launched by seoul took place near the northern limit line
7:04 pm
which separates the two careers in the east sea and almost korea's missile was still in the air president trump was briefed on the matter here's how he reacted. he. would go. take care of it it is a situation that we. now donald trump's also tweeted he's discussed with china's president and the two leaders have decided on more sanctions against pyongyang artie's jacqueline vuguru explains how the north korea's military capabilities have changed over the past two months. early wednesday north korea suddenly broken over two month pause in weapons testing and showed a significant bump in their capabilities the missile is believed to be north korea's most powerful projectile to date let's break down the details during a flight the rocket reached an altitude of up to four thousand five hundred kilometers to put that in perspective that is more than ten times the height of the international space station and while that number does come from
7:05 pm
a statement from north korea it is in line with estimates released by both japan and south korea the missile splashdown off of japan's west coast but it has been reported that if missile had been fired on a standard path it could reach a target almost anywhere in the world including any part of the u.s. but with higher frankly any previous state a research and development effort on their part the building to look for the force that could threaten. everywhere in the world basically something likely to increase now reignited tensions is the fact that in less than a week the u.s. and south korea will again conduct drills on north korea's doorstep a practice that sees a blatant threat that they will not leave unanswered. i . russia and china have called for the maneuvers to
7:06 pm
be pause numerous times and life of the less than friendly climate but those suggestions have been ignored along with pleas to restrain from the back and forth name calling and aggressive rhetoric between the u.s. and north korea that has been a trademark of this year this is all culminated in north korea possessing a nuclear bomb and a missile to deliver it anywhere allowing them to probably announce the conclusion of their nuclear program it looks like diplomacy may never be given a chance don't look adams executive director of paul institute told us the latest threats against north korea will do nothing gets results across. the idea of kicking north korea out of the un the un is a forum for diplomacy a forum that was designed to help avoid war it's the same agenda as matter of fact we're for word of war happens it'll be north korea's fault things you know or how it will be used if the united states has decided to attack north korea frankly i don't think that's going to happen but they're trying to ramp it up to the point to
7:07 pm
the very closest point to war and i think that's the problem because it could lead to many mistakes if the u.s. were successful in forcing china to cut off all oil north korea what would happen north koreans the billions would freeze to death in the winter that's what would happen that shows the inhumanity of u.s. sanctions towards north korea is not to say the north korean government is saved but they're not the ones that are going to suffer it's the north korean people so under sanctions. and other news a congressional committee in the u.s. has revoked saudi america's accreditation on capitol hill to receive the following letter informing us of the decision on capitol hill in the united states there are all kinds of panels as well as congressional hearings by both the house of representatives and the senate and in order to get into those panels and hearings in advance in which the workings of the u.s. government takes place in order to get in you have to be accredited well now it looks like artie is going to be denied access to reporting on events on capitol
7:08 pm
hill now this comes after r.t. was pressured by the u.s. department of justice to register as a foreign agent now heather now or at the spokesperson for the u.s. state department insisted that having us register would not affect our work in any way this is what she said when the united states it tells someone to register under a foreign agent requirement we don't see impacts or a fax the ability of them to report. news and information we just have to register it's a simple as that while it does appear that it seems to be the opposite of what heather nauert said because as of the moment we've received this letter which is essentially telling us that our ability to operate as a news agency and function and report on events on capitol hill a vital place in the u.s. political system the legislative branch of the u.s. government the executive committee of the congressional radio and television
7:09 pm
correspondents galleries exercises with three cities to withdraw the news credentials to feel it to work this action was taken in response to the registration of the o.t. network as a foreign agent please return your credentials to the senate so much and. that ability is now in question now at the moment we have this letter telling us that we need to turn over our credentials now this comes in the aftermath of r t being pressured and forced to register under the foreign agents residence registration act now this is a law that was passed in one nine hundred thirty eight to combat the influence of nazi germany and efforts and propaganda efforts by the nazi government back in the one nine hundred thirty s. now it follows months and months of pressure that have been placed on our see recently archie's status in the united states with youtube and their ability to do premium ads in the united states was taken away without any real notice twitter has
7:10 pm
banned advertising by r.t. and there's been a series of hearings on capitol hill directed at r.t. and which are g.'s a name has come up people are calling this atmosphere a witch hunt so this is yet another move another amount of pressure making it harder for reporters like myself to do our job in the united states or auditor in chief has given her reaction to the withdrawal of his accreditation. to all the self-righteous defenders of freedom of speech who also ardently proclaimed that far registration places no restrictions whatsoever on artie's journalistic work in the u.s. withdrawal of congressional credentials speaks much louder than empty platitudes. bosnian croat military commander slobodan probably occurs died after taking poison at the war crimes court in the hague as the verdict was being read out at an appeals hearing here unexpectedly produced a small bottle and drank from it right in front of the judge. here.
7:11 pm
it is wrong to. stop police don't. order of proof. has taken poison. dramatic scenes in the courtroom at the hague as the judge announced that slobodan play the former bosnian croat military commanders twenty year sentence for having taken part in war crimes would be upheld and he would be returned to the cells when this the play act produced a small bottle from his jacket said that he was not a war criminal and drank from it we understood that he then collapsed into his chair the video feed cut out he was rushed to hospital and it was confirmed later that he died in a hospital yack had been convicted in twenty thirteen for his role in the
7:12 pm
destruction of the star bridge now the court had ruled that this caused disproportionate damage to the muslim civilian population in the region it was just last week that the international criminal tribunal for the former yugoslavia hundred on a life sentence to ratko melodic the former bosnian serb military commander was convicted on charges of war crimes crimes against humanity and genocide and the appeal hearing of slobodan pray yack was actually going to be the final hearing involving the c.t.y. it's supposed to be wrapped up next month following eighty three convictions and sentences being handed down by the court since it was first started back in one thousand nine hundred three at the height of the conflict in the former yugoslavia in the time it has come in for criticism most notably for the handing down of
7:13 pm
sentences disproportionately to those from the bosnian serb side of the conflict. well since the hague tribunal was created back in one thousand nine hundred three the social of one hundred sixty one people have been indicted for war crimes in the former yugoslavia the majority of those defendants ninety four. of the tribunal has been widely criticized for the way hearings are conducted the the trials drug on for years even decades so that means that key leaders including former president slobodan milosevic died in the tension before verdicts were reached and in cases where people were acquitted. of political pressure political analysts join bosnich believe the purpose of the court was to set nations against each other the purpose of the court was to set these three brother nations against each other in perpetuity so that you could divide and conquer the region general probably was
7:14 pm
convicted had no chance of winning his appeal. i think he realized that it was a death sentence the man was in his seventy's twenty years imprisonment meant a death sentence in effect i'd like to point out that this man was primarily convicted for blowing up a bridge and the bridge has since been reconstructed and if you went to the site you'd never know the difference but the same general and the muslim generals in the area ethnically cleansed one hundred percent of the serbs in that region and nobody was convicted for that crime so if you look at the three sides in the war. the grounds for conviction were were never fair. of the record breaking rallies dividing opinion in the financial well of us that were and more still to come. but. they put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected.
7:15 pm
so when you want to be president and you. want to be rich. to going to the press this is what. three of the more people. interested always in the waters in. canada trump was criticized for not having a coherent understanding of global affairs indeed he largely dismissed the foreign policy elites a year after his election in since his inauguration is there such a thing as a trump view of the international system. so many bankers are jumping off buildings and jumping off ears out of the world and being crushed. so max in special magic you can fish for the bankers to. get
7:16 pm
a good look at the bank right here and you can go fish for dead bankers. welcome back to the program. what helmets group is again causing divisions that soft reporters without borders the swiss press club to counsel a conference critical of the syrian activists request was rejected by the head of the organization as censorship. you are challenging our support for this conference with the name of our organization appearing on the list of media members with charley dissociated ourselves from this event and do not wish to be associated with the conference we invite you to abandon this project which will damage the image of this race press club it was very surprising and very disappointing to see the journalist association asking for the kind of censorship
7:17 pm
that was my first reaction and so i decided to reply writing your letter and asking them to respect the freedom of the speech and deuce risk constitution. and what our guys here for were previously conducted his own investigation into the white helmets on the ground in syria has more details on what caused that split between journalist organizations you can't talk about that imagine what will happen to your reputation said the journalist how far the profession has fallen when one of its biggest unions tries to censor a simple discussion we are accustomed to to get the pressures from everywhere in the world and mainly from dictatorial. dictatorial countries but what which was very surprising was due to gets such pressures from
7:18 pm
a dramatist association so it's the first time in the twenty years of do existence of this response that we receive such demons from are journalists association which is supposed to support to to support the press freedom so far almost everything you've been told about the white helmets is stuff from their press releases and video productions not from locals or civilians no know from white helmet sponsors and p.r. agents that's great and all but let's at least hear from the people they say they're saving shows them helping the people but they only help the rebel fighters they really those close to them the last thing they cared about was civilians have to whenever food aid was brought into the white helmets and the rebels would take it after themselves to give us nothing not even bread. to us what there were many people buried alive helmets would come to save them and if they found civilians
7:19 pm
killed and they might not know that's a huge surprise what a shocker the white helmets aren't perfect who would have thought they were just regular people with their own shortcomings their own. agenda just like everyone else so why on earth would reporters without borders want to censor this absolutely obvious fact calling it russian propaganda i think it was the topic which was this disturbing this disguise now having described. as an. organisation that read it. and didn't even admit to here are the people who are criticizing the why tournaments it was a taboo to speak about that's impossible for
7:20 pm
a serious journalist or simply a. person to admit such such abuse for whatever reason it is taboo no one in the mainstream media or in western governments says anything remotely critical of the white helmets you remember ever hearing anything unflattering. reporters without borders has all but taken sides let's not forget in two thousand and sixteen they named a syrian rebel activist and the journalist of the year is taunting syrian conscripts buried under rubble he says he wants them to taste a slow death the swiss press club has made a point not to judge for me i cannot see myself in the mirror or if i am good big censorship or deciding you have the right to speak you have
7:21 pm
to speak because you are representing the bab the supposed bad part and it is paid off they've received an outpouring of support internationally and they vowed to continue doing what they do. to it regardless of pressure also received many people criticizing russia probably for him so garry kasparov for business is known some are who who are criticizing criticizing russia so i am open to everybody even to do people who are supporting russia and nobody criticizing that's i think the goal or for the real prescribe and not the politically correct. association independent journalist vanessa b. two took part in the white helmets panel which reporters without borders wanted to turn sold she spoke to r.t. earlier their propaganda puts the white helmet up on to this extraordinary pedestal
7:22 pm
. is produced by their p.r. agencies by the countries that are funding them that are also fundamentalist organizations in syria. and by their own by their own proclamation of glory and humanity which is denali for the syrian people who have come into contact with the white home it's described themselves as nonsectarian impartial apolitical organization they cannot make that claim when they are consistently lobbying both politically and for military escalation inside syria. other cryptocurrency but coin reached a record high of eleven thousand dollars on wednesday its values soared by staggering thirteen hundred percent since the start of this year i discussed the risks and the appeal of investing to currencies with artie's financial guru max
7:23 pm
kaiser an economics professor steve. it's such a huge right across encourage people looking at the ceiling i've got to be there the entry cost is certainly less than buying a house and having the house model appreciate so people are dogging in because the process is rausing but that's one of the definitions of the bubble it was not a bubble the u.s. dollars in a bubble they feel that currency world is in a bubble stocks and bonds you could argue are in a bubble something that's not a bubble would be a big coin you've got the dollar that is crashing in a hyperinflationary crash against bitcoin. it's total somatics i mean a big point didn't exist you wouldn't be out of coal the solar and hyper inflationary the us still is maintaining its value it would be the right inflation right running about two percent per annum. corn is running at the moment at. which the die is increased ten percent in one day now that is in one week that means it will double in two weeks if it keeps up a little before times for three weeks i tom's eccentric cetera it's like the old
7:24 pm
chessboard that simply calm keeps on going and i disagree the people using it for transaction as this is the floor it's a brilliant why you can create increasing in value it's a store of value sure at the moment but you'd be a madman to use the transactions you few use when i mention it doesn't like about a thousand big coin mechs and good luck to you but if you just let a salesman bit twenty year ago to buy a house you could have bought an os seven hundred fifty thousand dollars house in san jose and i could buy a ten million dollar mansion in san jose you'd be a fool to buy anything and i'm hearing people refer to the now as not crypto currencies but critics are in series because they intend holding them until they die that is not money it's already the number twenty five biggest reserve currency in the world it's heading into the top ten it all said to be the biggest reserve currency in the world you've got sovereign wealth funds like abu dhabi now buying bitcoin you've got russia and china now and japan actively buying bitcoins because
7:25 pm
they see that the bubble is bursting and again the u.s. dollar. is collapsing against bitcoin this is a paradigm shift so i can understand why joseph stiglitz came out today practically crying big fat tears he said oh my god the government stumble of the big quite how we survived well joe stiglitz get out of the way you're an old guy old views are no longer relevant and this is the new paradigm is never really strong argument that it's being used speculatively as a store of value but actually where can you actually use a bit god isn't too many places in the come on you can actually spend it and isn't there a danger when people realize that the pony can sell the store value its being there are hundreds of thousands of transactions now a day hundred thousand emergence accepted going to the real estate market being up ended by bit going you can buy high end properties went bad coin yachts and. properties and things of this nature are trickling down into the middle classes but again the timeline here has to be considered to travel from being a store of value to a means of exchange is going to take another few years mike's makes the point this
7:26 pm
is the future of its new technology and the centralized that's the key that's what people won't they don't want balan's they don't want government stealing the money when the short on cash isn't this the future and what more importantly what people want even though you can boil those things with it you'd be immediate to buy those things now because if you wipe ten weeks you can botch washed as many or three times as many so it's a process to stabilize now my worry is when it stabilizes what will happen to that process i don't think it's going to necessarily reach the stratosphere at a hundred thousand dollars and then stay there if you get to the stage where the only returns you're getting out of big coin manning of the transactions that i think the process to fall dramatically this could crash couldn't it what are the dangers for investors at this point you have gold as a case study gold is used takes a lot of energy to produce gold gold is used as a means of exchange as well as a store of value it's been around for quite some time because it is gold to point out the motherlode it's still taking over the global finance in this way it's putting feet of money out of business and the bankers on wall street are running
7:27 pm
scared jamie dimon is literally the. no peeing in his pants at this point because he knows he's going to be out of a job in five years we don't need the jamie diamonds of the world ripping us off we don't need wells fargo stealing money out of accounts we don't really h.s.b.c. funding drug lords in mexico to the tune of billions of dollars we don't need those bad actors in society and because it gets rid of all those financial terrorists and it's about time somebody stood up and did battle because the government's not doing it the academics aren't doing it so we have to call in to do it so you're pretty passionate debate you could of course moral that you don't call more on off social media as well we're back at the top of next hour with more headlines from around the world see you then. just manufacture consent to stick to the public well. when the ruling class is
7:28 pm
