guilty by association good sports capital punishment it was done of r.t. we discussed the controversy still surrounding team russia over the doping scandal with alexy in washington the two time paralympic gold medalist. this cause us to say that i'm outraged is an understatement fleets in the paralympic team a well prepared they've taken part in the world cup stages already under a neutral flag but they still want they didn't give up or lose courage they're just waiting for the final decision whatever it will be and it's heartening to see that they also worry about or limping about those who abandon the way russians sports have been treated in general but those who will go to the game should perform to their maximum just today job as professionals and we will be there to support them because there are moments in life when one can do nothing to change something i think it's all about politics no more than that. islamic state carried

out an attack on a military academy in the afghan capital killing eleven servicemen and injuring sixteen local journalist reports for five suicide attackers two of them killed by afghan national security forces and another two of them did renewed their explosives and one of them was detained two said jacket a rocket propelled grenade in four forty seven's were seized the. almost when to about four hours residents in that area reported hearing loud explosions there was the use of having small weapons so the fact that these militant groups can really strike the world in target these key military institutions as well as very secure security areas in kabul means a serious source of concern for people living here in kabul today's attack. deadly

one for the afghan national security forces and remember they were killed not on a front line somewhere in some remote district or in a province where this is every day of fighting i think that alone tells you that cities including kabul is big. front in the afghan government just continues to struggle to prevent these militants from carrying out these attacks the country has been suffering from a spike of terror lately with three major incidents in approximately the past week . and.

saturday's attack in kabul was widely condemned donald trump has reacted by saying the u.s. is committed to a secure afghanistan that is free of terrorists however the spike in violence comes as america intensifies its bombing campaign in the country during the last year the u.s. dropped over four thousand bombs on afghanistan and since august the u.s. has carried out twice as many air strikes as in the previous two years combined and we discussed this with sultan met with holly a former pakistani air force captain. i'm afraid the president has no realisation of the intensity of the situation in afghanistan he has not been able to read the picture clearly not has he been able to get a reality check of what is the real problem in afghanistan i don't think. they're physically threw their bombs through the. threats overcome this situation and

more threats are only going to create more than mayhem but it is not going to bring peace input into the region so president trump i'm afraid will have to revise his new strategy because it is faulty. swedish retail giant has recalled a series of children's socks after it was alleged they feature a pattern resembling the word in arabic h. and m. has since apologized claiming it was unintentional just weeks earlier the shop was accused of racism because of that picture there in its catalog showing a child with a hoodie saying coolest monkey in the jungle the child's mother though denied the ad was racist the latest controversy over the sox drew an irritated reaction online this is ridiculous the next will be that they forbid the small w. and them people have choices if you don't like them then don't buy them getting

with bullet holes. but surprised many with his latest immigration move some critics now praising him some supporters now slamming him. explain. amnesty for one point eight million people who entered the united states illegally that's what donald trump has just agreed to not exactly a hard line conservative policy doesn't really fit what we're used to hearing about the donald i think the president might be racist president trump's racist comments inflammatory racist language the situation that we're used to has been completely reversed at this point the guys at the right wing outlet known as breitbart are furious with trump now trump's image is loud brash and tough you think he never apologized for anything but he recently did apologize for making tweets that were offensive to muslims i would certainly apologize if you'd like me to do that i knew

nothing about them it's been over a year and trouble starting to look a little bit liberal a lot of the right wing are disappointed and some of the left wing doomsayers are looking a little bit silly if you're not having a terrible terrible dream views that are going to be remnants of a neo fascist movement because he leads in this country after this election this guy is a complete clown ever steve bannon that scary far right winger who is supposedly directing donald trump behind the scenes yeah he is not on good terms with the white house these days i think the president's statement is extremely clear what his position on mr bannon is was pretty lengthy and pretty detailed and there's not really much of clarified if that's in reference to comments made by mr bannon i'd refer you back to the ones that he made previously on sixty minutes where he called the collusion with russia about this president a total farce we get to really on earth and address this thing called. the deep state the shadow government and what's happening right now especially by what's

been the victim indicated on online in the internet rooms like a chant with q. and a on this is going to be the most transformative president or president c. organised ever what happened to all of those things that he said he was going to do he said he was going to be more aggressive involving investigating the link between vaccines and autism use even involved the name of robert downey i don't know what happened to that he he he says these and they sound terrific and then i don't know if they're forgotten or what have you let me just say this it's only been a year i feel like i've been present for ten years. cryptocurrency is all getting ever more attention including among top computer specialists miguel francis on the jago attended a crypto currency conference and caught up with antivirus group drawn by coffee. today crypto is unique. crypto is empowering.

crypto is on the verge of a global financial revolution crypto is a direct challenge that a world banking system allowing you to be the bank and make the money win or lose in the end crypto is bound to lead the world into the future. now it's time to take a swim at the coins bank asian block chain crews. are welcome at a coin bank. blotching conference we're about to get acquainted with over a thousand different disciplines from fifty different countries including one hundred russian i feel some of the hottest new stuff in the world of watch chain let's go. to events like this allow you to mix and mingle with some of the top talent in the block chain industry one of the speakers happened to be a man who is considered by some as the block chain guru john mcafee what are some

of the. criteria that you would suggest to look for in a good i.c.a.o. . first and foremost this is something that you would use if you would love to have what they're trying to build or break supported again number two is that the chaman you can find this out because in in the white paper will be a list of the founders and developers have they had experience in building blocks of things if not you might think maybe they can produce it. and number four does it sound like the people who are doing this corn love it themselves and the story. one of the more unique i.c.a.o. is i found here is a russian project called mark space it's intriguing to say the least a three d. and virtual reality space creating platform powered by block chain technology basically it's a way for businesses communities and really anyone to run and showcase their service or an idea in virtual reality for example to virtually take a walk through

a flagship store in beverly hills or do a test drive in that cool car you always wanted so what's this hype and why. i think because you know people understand that we have existing company with more than ten years experience you know you see in every r. and three dollars a recession is on and we all know you now have process a. no they can try before they go to our web site the trial goes with the structure they build the all in three d. you gotta believe upside they see that it's how does it actually work you go to a website you choose the place in the steam and say unit it's a virtual space then you use l. bushell constructor and you build it very cost and very easy so you know even kids can do that. in three d. and feel compelled to build upside. in five years time over half of the world i promise you will be using crypto currency and the half that doesn't is going to be the half that probably doesn't have smartphones or any access of it. i'm joining us

today here on our international and nicky ever takes over. what politicians do. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected . so when you want to be president. some want to. have to go to the press was like them before three of them or can't be good. i'm interested always in the water in the house. for shit. hey everybody i'm stephen bob gosh i want to ask hollywood guy usual suspects every proud american first of all i'm just george bush and r.v. and do such thing this is my buddy max a famous financial guru and well just a little bit different. you could love her well no one knows up with all the drama

happening in our country i'm shooting the road have fun meet everyday americans blah blah blah blah and hopefully start to bridge the gap it is the great american people. the be. the. book. about your sudden passing i've only just learned you worry yourself and taken your last wrong turn. up to you as we all knew it would i tell you i'm sorry suddenly i could so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on each breath. but then my feeling started to change you talked about war like it was again still some are fond of you those that didn't like to question

our arc and i secretly promised to never be like it said one does not leave the funeral the same as one enters the mind gets consumed with death this one different person to speak to now because there are no other takers the bunch of blame that mainstream media has met its maker. please. well welcome to sophie and the north koreans are causing global concern and the u.s. russia spat is paving the way to yet another arms race is a world free of nuclear weapons a beautiful dream or an achievable target i ask john to down apollo former united

nations undersecretary for disarmament affairs. one diplomatic spat too many one way to read from one body pushed by a tire jump the obvious or one successful cyber attack even if only one nuclear weapon is fired off accidentally the catastrophe would be unimaginable. is the way to contain and control the danger. can we stop the world wide spread of nuclear weapons and will humanity ever get rid of them. chanting down apollo the forward united nations under-secretary for disarmament affairs welcome to the show it's great to have you with us. ambassador would talk a lot about nuclear weapons and north korea that's constantly in the news pakistan about iran but right now in asia china is seeking to build a missile defense against a potential nuclear strike from india and with some border tensions between the two

asian giants i mean is south than is deja going to be where the next big missile race will take place i do keep your story to be as serious as it is nato could be by some newspapers certainly the potential will sure don't between. india and china is there because there are more nuclear weapon countries perhaps not to the same level that they have been at in the case of iraq where the theater of war has been present in international relations in the cold war era so we have really the nine nuclear weapon states five of them recognized by the nuclear nonproliferation treaty and the other full say the n.p.t. now we must also be concerned about the fact that there is sickness as are so great at a time when cyber warfare is

a very real possibility and so the possibility of saber tacts and cyber attacking nuclear weapon systems is a very real one today. but the north korean affair has made original powers uneasy now even japan is mulling over next to beef up its own security as nonproliferation crumbling completely away at least in asia because of this north korean nuclear prate through. i think the peso bought by electoral and multilateralism and has reading reduced very sharply from the days when reagan and the soviet leaders of us negotiated by the left really means you don't have anybody affleck lehman's being that she had to know and i think that's a great shame. mr trump as the new president of the united states there

appears to be no movement at all well as any kind of design movement we have the comprehensive nuclear test match the t.v. which is yet to be ratified and implemented. the russian federation has invented it and has signed and ratified but not yet the united states and. seven other countries are still too radical and sane so we have a lot of unfinished business when the nuclear genda which makes the situation very very frightening i remember so early unfinished and probably also unclear because right now is supplying an unsettled intent to have regular talks in putting their athletes under one flag at the coming lympics and this might seem like a wonderful opportunity for the united states to negotiate with kim jong il and yet what we hear is could is nuclear button is bigger from trump so it gets your

wondering who is a bigger nuclear threat here. i know this is a very sad situation where the leader of the united states is peaking in a very aggressive and very unfortunate way it is broken tip i think we need to have go back to the language of diplomacy and restraint that succeeding or and. i say we have will we will back to the time when we had some kind of restraint shortened by the previous leaders world of the united states and the russian federation so that this is important to realize the enormous power of the nuclear weapon and those who control that weapon must act with greater responsibility on the other hand to have said it yourself that a nuclear north korea is to me a reality show will just accept it stop stressing out and move on could that help

to fess tensions i mean if not what is making kim jong un jumpy probably a calm down and stop where the threats are he won't. well he himself has cited the example of duffy libya and saddam hussein in iraq where they were. seeking to get a nuclear weapon in order to protect themselves from their own security and now that kim jong un has blocked the weapon and has been able to guess if milicic misael capability. waning as far as merely united states is that certain maybe he will act middle grade a sense of responsibility i think we need to bear that in mind. force it's something that we should not accept it because it is a violation of the n.p.t. and security council resolutions but formally accepting maybe

a defacto acceptance is the only choice rather than to attack libya gave it feels all consequences and unpredictable consequences so it was it didn't matter that you have to say because they're not great power and knowledge rate power countries like north korea or pakistan with nuclear capabilities or even israel need nukes as a guarantor against invasion and they will never give up as long as they fail there is danger to their security how do we deal with that and how he will make them give up their security guarantees i think the deceit be a way joints oration agreement with iran which was negotiated by the europeans last the united states is an excellent example but unfortunately mr trump is seeking to undermine that and to under evelyn's that's a very serious setback because a country which was ready to negotiate the dismantling of its nuclear weapons is

now being faced with the threat of having to have that agreement scrapped in this case nobody has any faith in him. you know it will see asians in puget the naval forces of great powers and share that the michalis share of destruction doctrine works and that has kept us royal war free for seventy years now take x. away in wars are much more likely to break out and stir risks are much lower without them one getting rid of the doors to pass that is arguable the detail of the effects of nuclear weapons has been the major argument is favorably by nuclear weapons saves but we don't know with a spec this is workable all restraints non-nuclear states taking action and we don't want to test that because it will be poorly destructive of the human race so we have to find other ways to dismantle the current nuclear

weapons arsenals of these countries we have to find other ways to bring down the level of tension we need international affairs and plain diplomatic solutions political solutions talking about tansen political tensions between big powers neither the u.s. now russia are ready to start disarming and tensions between them are growing and they're citing witchell threats so what do you do to sometimes feel that your choice for disarmament is overshadowed in today's political reality at the moment yes we are not seeing any prospects of negotiations but i think we must continue to pursue that and i think here in the united nations with its new civilization as a major route and that is something that we would like to see to do clearly since it is time that the united nations is given an opportunity of negotiating to someone directly. the pentagon is now considering to point smaller so-called

tactical nukes what does that mean for the risk of a nuclear confrontation breaking out i mean is it more attempting to nuclear bomb when you know it's only a as powerful as the one yes in hiroshima well that is one way of looking at it but i think if you me again with a tactical nuclear weapon you bend it on a slippery slope and you are going to do with the whole world so i think no nukes is better than having even a small amount you because it's very difficult to control the slave to who scared nuclear war when you start with one you and that's why i think it will be very very serious adult when the human race thing gates in any kind of nuclear exchange so doesn't the nuclear war immense destruction for everybody how can it be difficult if y.b. because you can't have different grades of nuclear war was

a nuclear war is central then i think a total destruction of the world is what is likely to happen and we don't want that to happen because we all round scientific evidence that they use a wonderful get lost lorenda as destruction has struck this structure as an ambassador and if you bring me to my to my point that that is exactly why it's never really going to happen i mean even people who have nuclear weapons understand what you're saying right now. that is not an argument because that means that we have to be all lucky you know that a few years ago if a way there was a wrong button press and there was for thirty eight minutes absolute panic now this could happen again and the panic and then going to why don't flourish man using a button to press the right button and set over nuclear exchange so that is why there are risks of as.
