11:30 pm
five. people are actually crossing the street it's really territory to use a non-lethal. words to carry out the rest if there has been. crossing the border without authorization but using live ammunition right. intentionally the force is. minor sponsor in the truck to buy from them and that's not what's happening israel's responded to the cry from the un on human rights groups government lawyers say the gaza protests for all into the state of war category and therefore human rights laws don't apply to the i.d.f. rules of engagement and did a reserve colonel with the defense forces told us pretty same thing too that in his view the israeli military's actions are justified. any nation
11:31 pm
america friends of course israel has a full right to defend themselves we are not facing just a simple pacific march of nice people who are facing people who want to invade our country and when someone wants to invade your country you have two possibilities once you let him go in and you just leave or you defend yourself in war you have to see beauties or you win or you lose you cannot let people kill you you know they are to react you have to ask first because the rule of the game in this terrorist military rule is to be on the initiative not to be on the reactivity. major developments this last week in the ongoing investigation into the script help poisoning case a nato country admitted that it had in fact produced a novacek like substance as recently as last year then on top of that the un's chemical weapons watchdog but tracked on previous claims about the nerve agent
11:32 pm
jacqueline verger wraps it all up. criminal investigations usually work towards conclusions as new information and facts come to light but with a script all case it all seems a bit backwards and feels like those pesky details are being ignored take for example the embarrassing but significant slip up we heard this week from the chief of the international chemical weapons watchdog the research activities or protection you would need for instance five to ten grams or so but even in seoul is free it looks like they may have used more than that without knowing the exact quantity i'm told it may be fifty one hundred grams of so which goes beyond research activities for protection and the idea that such a large amount having been found suggests that it had been created as a weapon and not for research purposes is important from the get go the u.k. claim that nobody talks soviet origins were clear evidence that russia was the guilty party at the same time moscow argued that other states have the ability to create another truck and have experimented with doing just that so the suggestion
11:33 pm
that such a large amount wouldn't be found in research situations just adds to that idea that there is no other plausible alternative but that russia is behind the attack there is just one tiny problem with all of that. the o.p.c. w. would not be able to estimate or determine the amount of the nerve agent that was used in souls bre on the fourth of march twenty eighth the quantity should probably be characterized in milligrams but that whiplash inducing you turn has no one's convictions that russia did it even when combined with an announcement coming from the czech president who were no the choke was produced and tested in the czech republic it was a small quantity that we know when and we know where it was done it would be hypocritical to pretend that such a thing never happened so there you have it and then mission from at least one country saying that yeah they have produced and experimented with no each of class agents delivering a blow to a key element of the u.k.'s case no more can it be claimed that the substance could've only come from russia right wrong that two didn't dent the narrative the
11:34 pm
media gave almost no attention to the announcement and those who did cover it pointed out what they called siemens pro russia stance because let's face it in today's climate being pro russia means you're on reliable something else we saw this week was the u.k. national security advisor disclosing the fact that no suspects have been identified in the poisoning but given the fact that the case seems to be based on the assumption of guilty until proven innocent many outlets ran that statement alongside the line that police were urgently reviewing the security of other defective russian spies in the country once again implying moscow's guilt despite a lack of even one suspect after two months and while clearly none of these details are enough to prove russia's innocence at the same time nothing we've seen or heard up till now is enough to prove its guilt either. furthermore russia says the revelation by the czech president undermines london's case but in a statement to r.t. in the week the british foreign office repeated its claims that only moscow has the technical means the operational experience and did the motive to target the script perl's former u.k.
11:35 pm
intelligence officer charles hsu bridge told us he thinks the mistake plays conveniently into the narrative that russia is guilty i'm sure there are many of the or stylish when we first saw this interview appeared with the chief of the a.p.c. one can look at that and say well ok it's very easy probably to make a mistake in the middle of an interview and say grams when in fact you meant milligrams but that is actually contradicted by what the i.p.c.c. w.m.c. selves have said make sure into what was the reasoning behind the chief actually saying something that appears to be not just a mistake but at least officially untrue certainly it was grasped upon by headlines in the west that said that this was further proof that such a huge substance or see huge amount could only come from a state of course to bolster their case that this might be russia. early monday morning here in moscow putin's presidential inauguration later today will officially start his fourth term as russia's leader it goes down off takes a look at what we can expect from this ceremony. this is blair i'm
11:36 pm
a buddhist stairway to presidency so to speak he will climb these fifty eight steps before he gets to the halls of the palace also the site of the inauguration ceremony. this is the wall of military glory named after a single george and that is first of all the lattimer putin is said to cost on his part inauguration it is also the biggest hole in the palace with its length be more than sixty meters. the next whole the whole the whole of the order of scene from xander being in it right now it is difficult to imagine that for the larger part of the twentieth century none of this even existed after it had been demolished by soviet leaders
11:37 pm
only twenty years ago this was brought back to its former glory. it's not all of the glitters is gold they say couldn't be more wrong for this place i mean look at this gilded villas chandelier is even this this is the hole where the inauguration ceremony will be taking place latimer will be standing in the far end of the hole once again in his life the same old thirty three words good will officially start his next tenure as the presidents of russia and members from the kremlin see. it later today and it's
11:38 pm
a big fight it's also the big victory day parade huge thing here in russia shows seen on the t.v. if you're abroad well we'll take you behind the scenes of the rehearsals here of moscow after the break. that's. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. some want to. have to go on to be press it's like when the full story of the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters about how. to. apply for many flips over the years so i know the game and so i got. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the passion
11:39 pm
from the fans it's the age of the super money. to spend spend be true to the twenty million. it's an experience like no one else want to because i want to share what i think of what i know about the beautiful guy a great chance with. the base. again so moskos held his final rehearsal for wednesday's victory day parade featuring some of russia's newest military hardware if you're into that kind of thing full service personnel taken pablo it's a huge deal something really special indeed could join one of the calm voice on its way into the capital for the practice. but you see during the parade itself on red square axis rules behavior rules are super strict but this is just
11:40 pm
a rehearsal so we're going to hang out here a little bit and have a bit of fun. one of the brand new things about this year's parade is that it's going to feature drones and i think you can see one right there. oh i think i can see someone from last year's parade a little to. this. but i'm going to have it. actually i have some test driving skills myself here we go. let's see if i can do something with that here this is about all of these and. most of your skills you get. your life saved and you can't step with me. everyone's way too serious but perhaps that's what you should expect really with
11:41 pm
this kind of event. ok we really have to go now. that i. know what a lot of drive today but the bad shards just told me i used to have to and stand up. no roof. now that we park just outside red square. unfortunately we were out and it started for the guys to do some military grade washing up.
11:42 pm
ilya train co. so that salute forces this is not on going and forthcoming story as well the iranian president's issued a warning to the u.s. over its threats to abandon the twenty fifteen minute clear agreement i gather this hour if the us pulls out of the nuclear deal it will soon realize that this decision will become a historic regret for them. it comes after the israeli prime minister intensified efforts to convince donald trump to drop that historic pact in a dramatic power point presentation but he may claim to run lied about its nuclear ambitions president trump says he said to decide whether or not next saturday he will drop that agreement daniel hawkins reports tonight i'm here to tell you one thing iran lart the evidence well that lies in this filing cabinet allegedly thousands of documents and c.d.'s half a ton to be precise proven conclusively tehran misled the world about its nuclear
11:43 pm
plans both before and after the twenty fifteen agreement we've known for years that iran had a secret nuclear weapons program called project of mark hailing this as a significant development and a great intelligence achievement then your who was sure ron has one reason and one reason only to hide this information why would a terrorist regime. hide. and meticulously catalogued secret nuclear files is not to use them at a later date 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. richard never been concluded.
11:44 pm
and if you do. president trump. will dissolve or make as the solution on what to do with the nuclear deal. i'm sure he'll do the right thing 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 a delicate regional power balance well european leaders in parallel to this urged israel to submit all of the dangerous as it has to the un's nuclear watchdog but along with the self a number of observers have suggested in fact there's nothing new in that presentation from israel and there's still no credible evidence that iran has broken the agreement but will keep track of it as a next saturday in talking to the ramifications or not. turns out a lighter not having a sky high imaginations paid off one young russian boy who went far beyond saying outer space is simply black and white.
11:45 pm
house said the stars like that don't exist in space i need to a drawn i'm. worthless order from the sun we wanted to cheer him up and then we decided to refer this question to the most competent space authority ross cosmos a little. closer because i'll start first class my stance that i painted everything the right way the stars do exist in different colors they can be red green orange and many other colors. and that's the world that did you know that this was real or did it come from your
11:46 pm
imagination that's how i imagined the stars to be i like your page team if i was your teacher i would have given you and they plus even have correctly engineering my speaking to the space ship and your instrument nickleby's in it's hugely image anita you have expressed the mood and the state of the stars. metal might seem to say that they didn't it a bit closer to home on the isis international space station of their capture the lunar optical illusion you don't see this kind of thing too often so we use it as an excuse to show you the film the moon savingly disappearing as it moves beyond the earth and in effect caused by refraction is not long subject the sack. it's.
11:47 pm
of no further to be back again tomorrow night but there were a few lows far more great pictures more features were reports of the on off dot com here in moscow this very early monday morning there kevin i would hear the r t news room this weekend saying thanks for watching and see you soon.
11:48 pm
good night it stays instead of tools to use and it's a tax on other countries. economic sanctions are often just the beginning another thing you like to do is place some military pressure on the countries a talking about. there must be an effort to demonize that country and that country. yeah they responsibility for the. we need to make. those without us the.
11:49 pm
welcome to world a part of the recent series of events on the north korean track has attended many diplomatic conventions but only have the south koreans become the unlikely mass injuries between pyongyang and washington they've also become spokespeople for both kendall trump supposedly acceptance of kim jong un suppose that invitation photogs break these decades old stalemate well to discuss that i'm now joined by the link
11:50 pm
professor at cookman the university in seoul professor link of it's good to have you on the show thank you very much for your time thank you very much at your service now we've just witnessed a major turnaround in how north korea and the united states approach one another just a few weeks ago the world feared to break out of a nuclear war now we are discussing the potentiality of the first ever face to face meeting between the two leaders since the korean war what do you think accounts for these dramatic shifts of well i would say cynically blackmail. because or was a last year as a u.s. administration or well it's a more there's be a more precise president himself. has evoked a very heart to create an impression that huge is seriously considering a military against north korea nobody but president himself can possibly know was a he was really going to strike north korea or he helps it was all bluff
11:51 pm
bluffing to create such an impression and to get by lead to go diplomatic results reza sincere or not this policy of persia has finally walked. or will september suddenly changed its edgy heute to send chills dieting or study historically was a remarkably reluctant to forward really tough sanctions against north korea barred from august of september chani is probably in somebody's guards tougher than the united states saw the prior to shore they're working very hard so essentially what you're saying is that donald trump managed to change the calculus of not only the north koreans but also other parties to this conflict but the north koreans do not have a reputation of being particularly feeble minded in fact i think they have a reputation of being very tough negotiators and trying to get as much as possible
11:52 pm
for as little as possible and yet all of a sudden they show this openness for one sided concessions agreeing to suspend military and ballistic tests while north asking the americans to suspend their military exercises is that a measure of how frightened they are or perhaps a calculation on their part that they may get more in return later on bourse. bridges sure that in the long run as the north koreans the smart americans. because you know i've been studying the history and this is you see a history of how well. and his father and especially his grandfather. many people ated russians selves americans jeff aeneas and they always view or vigorous but right now they are still frightened because i mentioned your sentients is there yet to produce impact but in due time situation is likely to deteriorate
11:53 pm
and of course the door involved to be shot at as they understand in case of war they get in freak a great deal of damage on the us and their allies by they also understand that in the end of the day they are going to suffer much more so the dorms want a shooting war and eve the his you were that this is was going to happen if they don't stop well they decided to stop is a methyl fact exit action is they introduce the mandatory i'm on their missile tests a nuclear launches not now now they just confirmed it for all practical purposes they did it in late november and they also floated a possibility of being open to discuss the so-called denuclearization of the peninsula now i know from your own writing that it sounds big but it doesn't carry much at least in your view but do you think there is anything that could actually prompt young young to take this issue seriously and consider it i don't see any say
11:54 pm
that here where our rich will probably make deals to seriously consider. their current statement is basically just. many people forget by the according to the knight is sixty eight treaties signed by all major nuclear powers including tonight of states russia and chair that and france and united kingdom all this countries are under obligation to a venture to surrender the nuclear weapons. i fear show american or russian or chinese documents you see this is not exactly was there of working hard to achieve so it just really observers. easily do the see if they can is it to do was their american so russians have been doing for decades just to see involve beautiful point in the very distant future probably they will surrender nuclear weapons not know precious a link of you mentioned the village service and i think it's also become a bit of
11:55 pm
a diplomatic ritual to in-doors the denuclearized nation of the peninsula but if we look at it through politic lances do you thing regional powers like russia like china actually want pyongyang to fully disarm absolutely because it's very often is under stuart budget russian government has over it's been deadly against nuclear and this a or even more is a predictable to china you know all russia is now flooded visit and ten american feelings so many people say vowels their gears elijah's strays they're good guys they have supported them not because in the end of the day first of all russia be economy vice the cousin in your clear country's needs nuclear superiority even more and it has no interest in merchants offering you nuclear powers because that i view because pickets now it's last year tomorrow it may be scary as they're discussing
11:56 pm
a seriously vietnam and then more nuclear power with iran on their list military significant russia becomes and its only part of the story as a part of the story is just all good proliferation. norm to be part of her rate as well but the counter-argument to that would be that the north korean partial nuclear arsenal provides security guarantees not only to the regime itself but also to its neighbors against a military intervention the breakout of a major war on their borders and as you pointed out in one of your recent articles nobody wants to see a replay of the libyan events in east asia so my question to you is whether they're not care. having a short nuclear stick not a fully developed but some some blunts of a nuclear weapon doesn't dod provide a certain guarantee to both russia and china that the united states would not intervene recklessly on their borders no security guarantees for russia provided
11:57 pm
by the russia nuclear and missile force a speedier all as a countries if they develop nuclear weapons they create into the long run increase instability i'm not saying that we can do anything about north korea nuclear weapons i'm just saying that from the point of view of the russian the national interest it's not a good use look now it's about scary but if north korea becomes nuclear it will become all you logical for south korea to warn your korea as well because yes now say and probably believe they need nuclear weapons for defense but the us not forget it was a north korea beach invaded south scatty in one hundred fifty and it still official line is. does not exist so our study is in the us occupied territory to be eventually liberate it's ruled my cheapie did but if according to the north. this is a situation sort of what should not do probably develop nukes and if that happens what
11:58 pm
about japan what about what about vietnam all this countries have a lot of free as australia well of nukes by the way most cases against china and this is a result of a chinese so i'm happy about north korean nuclear program russia is a bit unhappy chad is seriously unhappy because if it's not stopped in ten feet twenty s. time channel you'll find itself surrounded by small really hostile countries and beatrice reasons to hate cherry no going back too many centuries and each country has a nuclear weapons professor i heard you say that the north korean regime is likely to be accommodating as long as it. that the u.s. administration could be reckless enough to launch a strike against said despite all the potential ramifications for south korea as well as for the region in general how much mileage do you think the trombetta ministration can get out of it what is the maximum that they can potentially extort
11:59 pm
from pyongyang by using these scare tactics. would say a lot of what they heard all of the blogs it's basically is that they can get much more than i areally stickily expect because. the north koreans a century except it was a joint military exercises will behalves it's the same situation i just discussed and you're talking about does a beauty of the nuclear program because if they have basically is a noise they can do nothing about joint military exercises non-sale is for the last few months it did look like the future deal if you include it do you think something about this scale or continuation of frankenstein of the joint exercises and recently at north scary as essential a set military exercises cavies us we don't care we don't worry about it rishi is was a pretty mess of concessions so i would say that say about
12:00 am
a year ago three years ago i used to say and many others observers said well sooner or later north koreans probably will sit down and start talking but they're going to extract a lot of every scene from the united states all interested parties now it seems that the. major condition is just to make sure that americans will not start shooting second to have some of their recent sanctions lifted as soon as possible before it will strike the economy and they're not going to port much more demands for the time being now professor link of there is a lot of discussion in the united states especially among those who do not support the idea. of the presidential summit that would be encouraging north korea for its bad behavior but i think the relevant question here is also one that it would encourage trump for his bad behavior because you mentioned that he's policy all.
