of their 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 something about this scale or continuation of pregnancy of the joint exercises and recently north korea's ascension to serve 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 a year ago three years ago i used to say and many of us said well sooner or later north koreans probably will see him and start talking but they are going to extract a lot of every scene from the united states all 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 socials 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 it would be encouraging and north korea for its bad behavior but i think the relevant question here is also whether it would encourage trump for his bad behavior because if you mentioned that he's a policy of essentially blackmail has worked so far if that summit indeed takes place. wouldn't that make bellicosity on them eric and part more acceptable form of foreign policy i know that for the time being both russia and china are endorsing the idea of the meeting between kim and tran but i suppose they would be just as happy to have trump threatened in the same manner allies there might share or. there's much more force and much more they're much

more capable or biting back and nobody would treat a as a rush old chap in session of a saw oh yes it's a kind of a bad example but let's face it nor scotty else forty k. is same blackmail tactics for me it's a bit funny to see how the same traits if for decades have been favorable to use and now use is a same efficiency a day as young is a bit funny to see when basically you're not all blonde tromp try to join in the huge honor himself it's a bit for funny all this fayyad feuding and all the stuff i don't think is going to be applied on similar scale to any serious op and the norsk area is dangerous but it's basically steel as a small and very poor company well sadly nobody likes to get a taste of he's our own medicine professor length off we have to take a very short break now but we will be back in just

a few moments stay tuned. for my guide to financial survival this is a device used by professional value x. to earn money. that's right. these hedge funds are simply not accountable.

to the. totally destabilize the global economy you need to protect yourself and get informed because you're. welcome back to worlds apart with unsealing called professor at the university in seoul now professor just before the break you commanded donald trump on the success at least initial success of his blackmail tactics. but the news of the last few moments and we are recording this show on tuesday is that donald trump decided to fire his chief diplomat secretary of state the facts teller sent my question to you is why they don't all jump at this point of time has the team to capitalize on

these initial diplomatic gains he actually have. negotiated the diplomats who would take this initial success and develop it into something more concrete. and you're shooting is going to be a tough this is a major program because it's an open secret that president despises his diplomats and well i would say is the feelings a largely. kate is there for last year or so a lot of highly skilled people have left the state department and essentially that now they don't have a single person who has experience or negotiating with his and. most people in the state department that he and i knew congress it's a big problem how well they're going to develop. it's

a great strategic success the it certainly did it was a strategic success it she of by presidents diplomacy i am a bit skeptical because mosconi else are very good very tough negotiators they don't change their teams for years for many years to come. people have been negotiating visit americans for twenty years and this people more all the big points and probably will take advantage of it so well it's not probably good news because if everything because becomes a mess it will be bad news not only for the united states not only for more scary it will be bad news for sellers carrier for china and of course for russia for your russian now you mention both russia and china and i think up until recently at least both of them have expressed cautious endorsement of this initiative for you know that moscow has even gone as far as to suggest that this summit may take place in moscow dad or for i think was downplayed later on in the kremlin but i

think it's still on the table do you think there is any chance of either russia or china stepping into the void and how being the charm for ministration to secure these deal for the benefit of global security i'm very i'm we have to tread very carefully here not to invite any accusations of collusion but at the end of the day i think we would all agree that you know the peace on the korean peninsula is in the best interest of humanity isn't it not only humanity her marriage is something abstract about they have argued just a few minutes ago. in korean peninsula is an interest of russia because russian interests and for basically cheney a centrist a very simple cost russia wants stability second russia of one's status quo sought russia of ones didn't carry. if mr trump if president did mean business if he were. is it really going to deliver a strike against moscow

a year m.s.e. war not their city yukio war but a mess of war was the most likely outcome therefore any kind of reduction in tension is a good news for russia however talking about their possible negotiation for moscow well until recently it would be a good idea to have cells kadian summit or say assignments be to be in north korean leaders and u.s. president or of western leaders it would be a good idea to have them in russia maybe there's a city in moscow why do us because of on the full seated to the you can be sure or maybe in my native fitters beltway not maybe not moscow but not now. said truth is right now russian issue is very big in the united states probably it has never been the case that russia attracted so much unfavorable attention well since maybe as a nine hundred fifty years since their anti communist fear and a communist scare saw. the probably

a good idea if russia is too much involved in this negotiations not now in the long run yes but now it's probably safer to just avoid maybe occasionally to sort out the situation because well sometimes russia would be happy to see americans in trouble but in kerry it is such troubles very easy can develop into russia or trouble there is an actual commitment from kim jong un to having this summit with south korean leader president. in the next month and if that happens that would also be i suppose a major breakthrough the third such summit in history. who do you think has more at stake at this meeting and do you see it as a stepping stone towards a meeting with trump or does it have a value in and of itself a larger disturbing story because surprise india scarier is it generally very pro american come. it was that by the tickle forces the shoes to be entier american of

the past like say supporters of the current president they are much much more favorable about the united states now the each however does not mean that they like advice you could do as president however mount a less is inspired of all this right now not scary and. in the same boat because in the long run. nuclear votes constitute a message of denture for the soul scary and bad it's for maybe in the long run maybe the end when we are talking decades right now their major threat south korea faces is a threat or a military operation initiated by the united states easily escalate into a war and if we have a war it will be lost and so i was scared eons who are going to die in large numbers so right now the an interest is to reduce tensions do i understand you

correctly that you're essentially suggesting that south korea feels donald trump a little bit more than it appears kim turned on yes as an immediate threat yes it's a tactical threat it's a long run of course kim jong il is a problem for sales guardians but in the short iran it was probably mr promp so what i see is that they're basically playing together more than just to reduce the tension to create the impression of there are now more scatty and are ready to talk and there are ready to make concessions and they are indeed actually ready to talk and indeed are ready to make concessions talking about the north south korean summit unfortunately cells kerry and president has very little freedom of action it can not the problem is any kind of economic assistance to last year because such assistance would be a violation not only of the us borders see but of the internationally approved sentients it's not an issue to talk about was in. because it's going to be

a blog by the united states as well and of course everything related to the nuclear problem is exclusively exclusively an area where nato for the exclusive american interest so basically they can smile discuss the quality of meat and barbecue or maybe approve some kind of nice cultural exchange is you know. pegged under fire and you know all of this go in here they can not discuss anything serious so it's that lychee of you will be a stepping stone to this summit between trump and team simon to be sure you really can't. pass for future negotiations and ration and exchanges between. having said that i think what it least i find very fascinating is this new role the south koreans found themselves in because they're essentially now acting

as messengers between pyongyang and washington rather than you know being a separate party to the conflict and i think that's that's a very interesting development i don't think we've ever had. south korean officials communicating to the americans what the north koreans want do you see any do you see that as a positive development for the careen negotiations because i suppose that when you act as a not a necessarily as a mediator but at least as a go between in the your optics shift a little bit and i think you you try to prepare the base for a compromise a little bit more than the you would if you were acting in your own capacity dawn forty they would try really hard to prepare a base for compromise because if shooting starts it really is a subtle study as who are going to die in large numbers including a lot of people in the top political idiot so they're working hard on board and talking about their role of digits into this uprising. and it's also unnecessary

because bourse north koreans and the americans perfectly kept about opening a shady things themselves and contrary to what most people suspect this kind of claim to stein on the fish will see could cut channels of communication between and have always been at the racial of what i'm seeing they not only count talk they have been talking for all this time and the decision to include last year. is largely done because first of all. diplomats want to use it to drive live h.b.c. in cells get into united states and they also want to create sort of united front business hours kadian government because for the time being as they have set for bourse north korea and possible the media that he appear ation by the americans can see a greater threat then as said it ical possibility of all via wars the war between themselves which is not going to happen anytime soon. so they want to sort of you

united front and i merican all civil bleich to give some kind of make some gestures to emphasize the significance of the cells carry that's. basically it's normal about playing some games behind their back but professor link i think it was reported in the new york times just there the other day that. south korean officials asserting not only is the mass injures bits in pyongyang and washington but essentially. the americans are making them play the role of spokespeople because at the end of the day if it was a south korean official who announced the willingness to negotiate with with it with the north is that a form of had risks on the part of the trumpet ministration or simply he's a little lock of knowledge about how the diplomatic niceties are supposed to work out because i think it's also pretty. the dems had to have

a north korean official to communicate the will of the american president to the world. it's exactly what they have just set some. variable now for their miracle and american administration and maybe american diplomacy to emphasize their significance and this is why such an unprecedented measure was taking basically americans sending a signal to saul you are a part of the team if you're probably abject you really can do very little by the date you very seriously and you are going to give you a lot of extra rights because your part of the team and basically ignore scotty as are also sending a somewhat similar signal look the boss i afraid of this strange guy is the vital house isn't our joint interest to reduce the tension for the time being maybe in twenty years the other thread we are going to fight one another and that changed

nuclear strikes because god knows so i was going to make an easy to go nuclear eventually but for the time being our major problem is across all show let's act well professor lying cause i guess you can find a silver lining even in the darkest cloud and if trump's unpredictability provides for this bonding experience between the two koreas so be it anyway we have to leave it there i really appreciate your being on the show today and to our viewers please keep the conversation going in our social media pages as for me hope to see you again same place same time here on the worlds apart.

the new global economic war is unfolding in the realm of education the right to education is being supplanted by the right to access to education low it's high education is becoming just another product that can be bought and sold so there's not just about education anymore it's also about running a business where you're good models of the regime look good is also the kind of fellow economic. want is the place of students in this business model before college i was more now i'm running stream or higher education the new global economic war. put in lives by two things by his emotion and he has said. in the long piece and he places a very long game he says so to speak of a. long distance runner in politics and that's the way they underestimate him.

thank. you. the old

was. the catalyst lawyers who. in the stories that shaped the week may day riots in paris are described as the worst than half a century with more than two hundred people arrested in the middle class is now starting we don't know you'll see the tear gas is coming up she was the police to begin and that's because just behind us there is a going on. the case against russia when the script poisoning is on the mind after several key claims all refuted. was was. also ahead this hour hundreds of palestinians are injured by israeli gunfire on the gaza border in a six week of. protests. and it's not the approaching prepares for

a for russia's president we look at what to expect from monday's inauguration ceremony. another thanks for joining us here on r.t. for the week's biggest global headlines i'm daniel hawkins wherever you are welcome to the program. a paris was shaken this week by its worst may day writing in fifty years this follows months of public anger over the french government's labor reforms short of doing ski was in the thick of the action. we. the middle class is now starting the police don't want to take a look over there you'll see the tear gas is coming up to us the police move again i'm not because just behind us there is

a going on the demonstrators have put forward a vehicle and a very good bike and as you can see. ok. well as you might have gathered we've just been in the middle of what was quite a large clash between the police and the protesters just look behind me this is one of the trucks with the water cannons and you can see the gendarme now coming down and you can see some of the water in the firm that's been on the ground to try and push these protesters back take a look behind me and they're actually trying to barricade themselves up now that's off to they set fire to what looked like a g c p the fact it's still own fire over there in the distance the process is it is if you just turn around a little bit more can't really have a look at this you may see this big old dog smoke coming up here on the protesters

what they did is they lit fire to what seemed to be some sort of motorbike and the car just want to give you a sense of what sort of damage has been created from those clashes not just the conscious but the damage that was coolest by the protesters the police had warned early on tuesday morning ahead of these may day protests that they thought they were going to be hijacked by anticapitalist by anti fascists and they were indeed they came out in their hundreds ready with a gear their safety gear to be able to protect themselves from the tear gas the masks protesters would be damaging and smashing items up across this part of paris and the police had let them be just come over here and you'll be able to see the bullets here of a fast food restaurant that have been put up that was completely and utterly destroyed restaurants further behind on the street will also destroyed and

basically the police did very little in fact nothing for a long time when this destruction was happening it was only further on into the demonstration the violence took place at the. the actually did something they've said the reason that they didn't react this quickly is some people say they should have it because they were trying to avoid collateral damage and tensions flared up again on saturday with forty thousand people taking to the streets of the french capital the march took place on the first anniversary of president of my crohn's election victory activists held by as with the message stop down with the president of the rich around two thousand police officers were deployed to the demonstration to prevent a repeat of the labor day riot. and search for undercover kremlin agents in the u.s. is unabating one analyst has pointed the finger at an unlikely suspect the musician kanye west but i guess the of looks into those claims remember when being portrayed

as a russian spy was funny. bit of a joke. over. what are you doing in the dark when. russian spy assaulted. by a kitchen here. who isn't funny now could be anyone in the oval office in the pentagon madison square garden. can years recent coordination with trump along with his use of infamous or rhetoric and symbols confederate flag reek of products here just join up the dogs can year indorse trump publicly their friends. i'm not saying can you west is involved at all in the trump russia scandal but i am

saying he has russian ties and was there right after the twenty sixteen elections scott walk in or perhaps work in a contributor for the us news channel m.s.n. b c and also founder of russia gate agrees there are just too many dogs not to connect them kanya west went to russia he went to russia he literally flew to moscow and walked around the jew see what he got up to i shouldn't be doing anything it's now so or vs why didn't we see it before we see it now and there are more of them clint eastwood openly backed trump and the russian connection is blatant clint eastwood speaks russian. pretends.

oh and robert de niro he hates trump or so he says but look at the fact he cool owns a chain of all true a luxurious restaurants in moscow and he's opening a new one soon you know who goes to his restaurants oligarchs we're not blind anymore there could be russian spies in my audience and i wouldn't know everyone is a suspect. are you a russian spy now. russian spies. ellen de generous knows what's up we need lists so i've put together a quick one to start things off this is a list of american stars who recently been to russia they held hands and did business it's time to wake up russian agents everywhere the president the republicans hollywood your neighbor your

friends maybe probably even you and the rolls are some suspect links in turkey's hierarchy as well here's the foreign minister of the country showing some pretty impressive russians kills. then we ought to know where the best ratchet. is or syria. to syria. or chink or syria or fortune fortune for person. of the israel gaza border has seen brutal clashes now for a sixth consecutive friday thousands of palestinians advance to the border fence in a so-called march of return israeli soldiers responded with gunfire injuring at least three hundred fifty.
