10:06 pm
deserves a nobel peace prize for his efforts to deescalate the situation in the korean peninsula it follows an historic meeting between the leaders of the north and south which saw both sides pledged to rid the potential of nuclear weapons before the end of the year the states also agreed on friday to formally end the korean war which dates back to nine hundred fifty three they vowed to sign a peace treaty and agreed to involve the u.s. and china in the process. well truck was quick to take credit for easing the tensions on the potential and his supporters are also now saying he should get the nobel prize for his efforts in a recent tweet trump suggested he's more deserving number a car bomber who was given the award just after he became president at a rally on saturday trams found seem to agree. the nuclearization of the korean regime was i think he was being rude.
10:07 pm
to her during our strike. so does trouble really have a chance of skipping the award with more on this his artie's done of. 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 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. what do you think. president trump had to do with it i'll tell you what i like about everything with and as we've been told the trump has the best words and
10:08 pm
those he applied to north korea directly is a sick puppy rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself 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 a saying that whole quid pro quo thing we are sending an armada. for a pair of. 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 nickname vish gun a persuader trump style of making peace equally applies to iran big government that

10:10 pm
a nobel peace prize and trump do fit together at the end of day after all what has obama get to have all the nice things. journalist and author my explaining tell believes the improvement in relations on the korean peninsula has nothing to do with trump. donald trump's policy towards the koreas has been one of hostility at sanctions and threats of fire and theory as defense minister jim mattis threatened the earth korea with extermination and their policy essentially failed because nuclearization in north korea succeeded because kim jong un extended an olive branch to the south and because monday it has been so courageous it is efforts 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 it is a downward trend is really not play a role in the vents around north and south korea.

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 labor supporters have even chosen to embrace the accusations. 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 vote comes up with shocking results there's clearly no other plausible explanation apart from the russians did it. r.t.

10:23 pm
a bit like james bond they have a license to kill with impunity and i say with impunity because whenever seems to be an injustice 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 dark in his uniform crime isn't driven by race crime is 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 areas and on than the. 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. yes the disproportionality is not there. ukraine's president petro poroshenko has announced

10:25 pm
lead to further escalation we could well see an increase a ratcheting up of the military stakes in the region for maintenance by poroshenko with his new military. powers it does sound like he wants to have more power to control the manifestation of of his policies in the country he wants to leave domestically be 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. a child's imagination can be pretty vivid but when a teacher rejected one russian school boys picture of the stars as inaccurate his father appeals to a higher also. said
