7:02 pm
a significant development and a great intelligence achievement that the all who was sure iran has one reason and one reason only to hide this information why would a terrorist regime hide. and meticulously catalog good secret nuclear files if not to use them at a later do a state hiding its nuclear weapons program what other country would do such a thing some will remember netanyahu has twenty twelve un speech and the cartoon bomb iran's foreign ministry has already called his presentation a propaganda show but the issue here is also a serious one since the onset netanyahu has been an ardent critic of the iran agreement so this is a terrible deal. i think this deal is a bad thing to do or it would never have been concluded. and in a few days gone president trump. will decide will make his decision
7:03 pm
on what to do with the nuclear deal. i'm sure he'll do the right thing the right thing for the united states. the right thing for israel and the right thing. for the produce of the world this development comes at a crucial time for this international framework in less than two weeks president trump will decide the future course of u.s. action is likely to differ strongly from the other members of the five plus one group despite last week's niceties during president micron's visit to the states so far trump has kept his cards close to his chests we'll see what happens his favorite phrase whatever does come about on may the twelfth there's a new york who will do all he can to convince the world that scrapping the deal is the right way forward even at the cost of years of negotiations and the delicate regional power balance was down you mentioned there it took a lot of time to close the iran deal in twenty fifteen terran agreed to strict
7:04 pm
limits on its nuclear program and to open its facilities for monitoring in return some international sanctions against the country were lifted. well the european union's foreign policy chief released a statement on monday responding to netanyahu presentation federica mongery me said the e.u.'s consider the details of netanyahu is claims and get the assessment of the international atomic energy agency she also noted the agency has published ten reports certifying that iran has fully complied with its commitments political science professor dr magid bhatt trust says the claims of the israeli prime minister are unjustified it must be sure by who and this is not the first one. in no position to take and criticize any country. planning to have. with the proliferation treaty
7:05 pm
he declined he refused to sign it repeated leak germany has responded immediately the person released saying that it's going to examine those documents they are assured that iran is. the only one is trump who is not convinced or wants to pull out and. put. forth a well known reason. south korea's president has reportedly said donald trump deserves a nobel peace prize for his efforts to deescalate the situation in the korean peninsula follows an historic meeting between the leaders of the north and south which saw both sides pledge to rid the potential of nuclear weapons before the end of the year the states also agreed on friday to formally enter the korean war which dates back to nine hundred fifty three they found to sign a peace treaty and agreed to involve the u.s.
7:06 pm
and china in the process. well trump was quick to take credit for easing the tensions on the peninsula and his supporters and are now also saying you should get the nobel prize for his efforts in a recent tweet he suggested he's more deserving than barack obama he was given the award just after he became president does a rally on saturday trumps fans seem to agree. the nuclearization of the korean peninsula it was it was we were the new. it was very nice thank you. so does trump really have a chance of escaping me a ward with more or less his r.t.c. coached on the nobel peace prize an award for human rights champions peacekeepers and presidents who would later drop at least twenty six thousand bombs on seven foreign nations in just one year the prize is clearly viewed as such
7:07 pm
a meaty addition to donald trump's track record that someone under a stolen identity actually forged his nomination for the award two years in a row supporters of the idea have named the negotiations between the koreas as trump's main qualification for real this time now there is a. what do you think. president trump had to do with it i'll tell you what i like about everything it was and as we've been told the trump has the best words and those he applied to north korea directly he is a sick puppy rocket man is on a suicide mission for him so obviously he's a pretty smart cookie we all saw that intricate game of diplomacy we will have no choice but to totally destroy north korea they will be met with fire fury witnessed trump
7:08 pm
a saying that whole quid pro quo thing we are sending an armada. very powerful we have submarines very powerful and i will say this. he is doing the wrong thing is making a big mistake let's be frank those who call trump a peacemaker more or less share the logic of those who nicknamed vish gun a persuader trump style of making peace equally applies to iran big government that gives terrorist safe harbor financial back in i am speaking of course of a rare the rogue regime a rand can sprint towards a rapid nuclear weapons break no where no matter where you go in the middle east you see the fingerprints of iran behind problems for
7:09 pm
goodness sake here pointed as national security advisor a man who just last year thought this was a good idea and that's why the word twenty nine is the here is a. serious felt the full impact of trumps peacemaking if things keep going the way they are the country will be celebrating the annual tomahawked day sometime around mid spring but again maybe a nobel peace prize and trump do fit together at the end of the day after all what does obama get to have all the nice things journalist and author max blumenthal believes the improvement in relations on the korean peninsula has nothing to do with trying. donald trump's policy towards the koreas has been one of hostility at sanctions of threats of firing hereis defense minister jim mattis threaten north korea with extermination and their policy essentially failed because nuclearization
7:10 pm
in north korea succeeded because kim jong un extended an olive branch to the south and because moon j.n. has been so courageous in this effort to reconcile with the north and so really calls for donald trump to receive a nobel prize really reflect how insular and parochial view of right wing is right wing supporters is donald trump has really not played a role in the then it's around north and south korea. palestinian doctors are struggling to cope with the number of injured following a month of protests along the gaza border the red cross says hospitals that only get forty eight hours of power a day the demonstrations have been met by heavy response from israel including sniper fire the palestinian health ministry in gaza says more than two thousand people have received local injuries lack of medical treatment has also resulted in

7:13 pm
the rights group. we continue to see every week hundreds of people injured very serious injuries we're talking about people whose you know bones have been pulverized shattered as aid workers on the ground have described as x. rays and photos we've seen in our visits to hospitals have shown you have people that have you know large massive exit wounds if people are actually crossing a fence and israeli territory ever excuse non-lethal means of a variety of swords to carry out an arrest if there has been you know criminal how do putting a crossing you know from border without authorization but using live ammunition right now i'm using intentional lethal force is only permitted under international law in response to an imminent threat to life or limb and that's not what's happening here these are these this is using force to accomplish other objectives which are not sanctioned by international law you of mortars that are on their face on lawful and really responsibility for these awful killings go to the highest
7:14 pm
levels of these really government. there's been a global black backlash over the israeli military's response to the demonstrations in gaza since the end of march forty three palestinians have died in process during that period including four children. with local elections imminent in the u.k. the alleged russian meddling saga has taken another twist the sunday times newspaper claims russian twitter bots tried to influence last year's general election in favor of labor party leader jeremy corbyn. takes a closer look the sunday times has provided us all with
7:15 pm
a little russian bought deja vu its groundbreaking investigation with swansea university has cracked the code on how the labor party did so well in this year's general elections and the answer is russian tweets of course. research that just that was not destroyed at the time superbowl corban and to down the street by bombarding the public with positive messages in support of labor using twitter columns that were mostly created after the election was just that early last year so let's break down that research sixty five hundred russian twitter accounts identified by their primary language work to bash the ruling conservatives and promote the labor party in the run up to the election and a few examples are given as to how they achieve their meddling goals such as promoting stories condemning trees that may for cuts and police numbers and funding another point made in the article was the massive attendance seen corbin's rallies but even if the scores of people who showed up were only there are things to bought three tweeting corbin's location does that somehow make them not true supporters
7:16 pm
other suspicious activity it was a push by the box on election day telling people to get out there and vote how dare they say the article doesn't provide a list of the accounts they monitored and said that many of them have been deleted or suspended by twitter conservative m.p.'s have vowed to dig further into the claims russian interference in the politics of the u.k. is a breach of election law and something we've got to act to stop whereas labor representatives have slammed the article as a classic sunday times smear campaign the labor party's people power do election campaign attracted huge levels of public support online we're not aware of any from to me bought categorically did not pay for any not aware of any of our supporters doing so. other way were supporters have even chosen to embrace the accusations.
7:17 pm
now the report does not comment on who specifically was behind the campaign or how many people actually saw the tweets nor does it say whether or not the attempt was successful but the point is if a book comes up with shocking results there is clearly no other plausible explanation apart from the russians did it or r.t. has asked for a response from twitter and for the times to provide additional information about their research will let you know their responses meanwhile former british intelligence officer unemotional fills the newspaper's claims are all just part of a top down on alternative bede's the west does not like dissent it does not like alternative views and the internet offered people the all of the chance of developing these alternative news and as soon as you have one of those alternative
7:18 pm
viewpoints in the west you must of course be working as one of putin's useful idiots who is a russian troll bottle whatever it is we saw this last week as well there was a report on sky news and they were accusing two accounts particularly of on twitter saying that they are russia true russia bots they were human beings and so sky news invited one of these people on the news and he came on to sky and argued that he was a human being strangely enough and it turned out he was the source seventy year old pensioner who was just angry at what was going on politically in the u.k. so it is really reasonable that they're trying to stigmatize british citizens who have an alternative view. the un has raised concerns about the number of black people killed in the u.k. by police on their side after the break. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or
7:19 pm
rejected. so when you want to be present. for something i want to be. considered like to be close it's like a tree in the morning thinking that. i'm interested in the law there's a. sit. com.
7:20 pm
welcome back the un has expressed serious concerns about the dish pope proportionate number of black people dying in the u.k. due to the excessive use of force by police the deaths reinforce the experiences of structural racism over policing and criminalization of people of african descent and other minorities in the u.k. . well the accusation of racism comes after a review of police state or it found officers used force against twelve thousand people during three months last year one in three was black though the proportion of black people in the population is passed smaller attention to the issue was highlighted by a controversial incident in july when a black man was killed by police.
7:21 pm
of britain's home office has vowed to investigate the allegations we discuss the issue with experts the police a bit like james bond they have a license to kill with impunity and i say with impunity because whenever seems to be any justice i don't know of any policeman that has gone to prison for killing a civilian on the streets of london at the end the evidence doesn't go so far as beyond reasonable doubt i think is one of the most impossible things to do to prosecution officer the only reason is the offices of that to protect us so it's quite a natural when you see a police officer in the dock in his uniform crime isn't driven by race crime is
7:22 pm
driven by socioeconomic factors or young males in inner london get involved in street crime and socioeconomic factors mean that there are more your miles are black in arizona london than there are of other rices that's not the same in other cities and so when you look at the people involved in street crime in those areas the disproportionality is not. and finally barcelona defender gerald p.k. turned camera man as his side celebrated winning their seventh spanish league title in ten years the catalan star took the camera from marty's video agency ruptly to film bosses bus to operate. i. i. don't like our
7:23 pm
after the video journalist trying to get a closeup little messy and luis suarez were also among the players who were caught on film by p.k. he also captured the moment for thousands of fans local people and tourists to line the streets of barcelona to join in the victory parade. ukrainian president petro poroshenko has announced a change in the operation against two self-proclaimed republics in the country's eastern donbass region the battle the separatists will cease being coordinated by the country's security services and will instead be under the direct control of the military it comes just as ukraine receives the first batch of javelin antitank missiles from the us part of a forty seven million dollar military aid package we continue to work on strengthening our defense capability in order to repel russian aggression i am sincerely grateful for the fair decision of donald j.
7:24 pm
trump in support of ukraine and in defense of freedom and democracy. ukraine has been pushing for western countries to provide more military equipment the u.s. government says it will also supply technical assistant assistance transportation training and other related elements of logistics and program support after an attack after a coup in twenty fourteen ukraine started a so-called antiterrorist operation a military campaign against separatists in the pro russian east of the country more than ten thousand have been killed in the ongoing conflict international affairs commentator marco gas which believes the change in the operation may lead to further escalation we could well see an increase or ratcheting up of the military stakes in the region for many seats by poroshenko with his new military. powers it does sound like he wants to have more power to control the manifestation of of these policies in the country he wants to leave domestically be
7:25 pm
the man in charge so certainly he will want to show that he's doing something with the change that he's instituted between the security services and the military so we should expect an increase in violence from the cuban regime towards the donbass region. now a child's imagination can be pretty vivid when a russian school boys picture of the stars was rejected by his teacher as inaccurate his father decided to take the matter up stands. and said the stories like that don't exist in space i need to read ron i'm.
7:26 pm
much older for the focus we wanted to cheer him on and then we decided to to refer . question to the most competent space authorities ross cost. us a ask us how stuff was possible sad that i painted everything the right white stars do exist in different colors they can be red green orange and many other colors. and that's the good but did you know that this was real or does it come from your imagination that's how i imagine the stars to be i like your painting if i was your teacher i would have given you and i plus even have correctly engineering wise into the spaceship and your instrument because vision is hugely image you need to you have expressed the mood and the state of the stars.
7:27 pm
a lot about the latest headlines in just over half an hour meanwhile for more news in the meantime. anything editor of free trade interrupts freedom and i think interim freedom is a reversion back to neo fiddles and we see that happening right now the united states and presumably here in canada as well as concentrated in the cure for your hands bradley a river of the risk of neil feel as though on the horizon crypto is is the elser in my view and it is an asset class and it is gobbling up market share and the us dollar is all three our money is still. in the heart of the swiss alps this is
7:28 pm
a place probably more secretive than the pentagon more mysterious than the cia and better guarded than for knox swiss customs are here permanently all the site is controlled by as a monday impose the opening time so if. it is from is all plus the procedures in place of the strictest in all europe must to pieces by artists like pecans oh and modigliani i can't boards and soon inside this warehouse that's where the report comes in it covers up deals which are naturally discreet commercially discreet felt but also discreet because they concern fraud for some of those paintings are linked to dark secrets nobody knows how many of these secrets a kept inside the geneva freeport social position that you'll never obtain an inventory of all the works in the freeport who knows how many there are three hundred three thousand three hundred thousand is it a matter of confidentiality only is it the world's black suv the odd business.
7:29 pm
hello and welcome to cross talk where all things considered i'm peter lavelle we live in surreal times a short time ago even imagining a negotiated end to the tensions on the korean peninsula was a flight into fancy but here we are is this becoming a foreign policy victory for trying. cross talking trumps foreign policy i'm joined by my guest mark sloboda he's an international affairs and security analyst we also have exactly moreau he is the founder of the center for political strategic analysis strap poll and we have

dimitri he is the political analysts with the international right gentlemen crosstalk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate exhibit let me go to you first we're going to devote a good part of this program to what's going on in the korean peninsula however the president of the country that you come from france was visiting the united states how would you sum up mccrone this visit because if you want my two cents it was quite humiliating for the french president quite immediately it's exactly the word to use and in my opinion again show that. is a meeting with the. chief of state and in my opinion you had some remorse because it was in some ill yes that. six zero interrogation and so you played with him and he looked like he was being played with. i mean i think you know even if you're not really interested in politics the view.
