the position is that they have not heard ahead of time what president trump intends to do now we know trump did meet with merkel and mccraw who both support the nuclear deal now boris johnson who is from the united kingdom he is the foreign secretary he didn't get the opportunity to actually meet with donald trump so he went on down times trump's favorite television program fox and friends to defend the nuclear deal so we have all these different world leaders as well as you know you know voices from around the world urging trump not to scrap the nuclear deal this is what we've heard from world leaders in favor of the iran nuclear deal. oh me if the dude is guaranteed by none americans the u.s. is with drool would be ok but the problem it's always cools trouble would be removed from the do all of what we have in mind is not true field we have our own room legal and logical tom we can be tough. on iran but throw away that the the heart of the deal is that the cook food with respect to respect this

6:33 pm
the nuclear program and a lot of questions about what iran's response will be and what response will see from different countries around the world that are supportive of the nuclear deal and many thanks of course one of the new york skated more pinch will become a back to caleb in a round forty seven minutes time to find out what donald trump a said if donald trump says what he said he's going to say when he says he's going to say you never know with trump he's pretty unpredictable character. now they run you clear agreement was reached back in two thousand and fifteen between tehran and the five permanent members of the u.n. security council plus germany because she had taken more than nine years under the daily rounds obliged to limit its nuclear program in return for the lifting of sanctions amid. disagreements iran's president hinted that his country may continue to comply in any case we spoke to a political analyst from hughes. i would do that one level as a cop bad cop stops threatening or on the other little members which which are all
6:34 pm
part of this greater collective or alternative city ron paul on we've got your back let us for call and give them something and this is because we want more like a business deal no matter what a very good all's it leaves at cowley it's a win for them when israel takes the inner but used as leverage but i believe that they are creating the conditions were firstly the malaysian enemy in you clear. that when you came up they have these weapons of mass destruction through the lease which iran. has as sort of faith that they don't tell nuclear chemical ali would constitute but that's the. chance to want to place an exit or ron. workers at the museum of the former nazi death camp auschwitz say that they have become the target of a hate campaign waged by polish nationalists they're also concerned about an increase in anti semitic incidents most recently the home of an italian guy that
6:35 pm
museum was vandalized with swastikas and xenophobic slogans think looted poland for the poles and only polish guides announced fits polish nationalists have accused officials at the site of downplaying the deaths of non jewish prisoners at the camp . what we hear is that people who died here mostly were jews that's a lie let me speak and so it is the government of israel and jews polish jews especially our attacking us they make us look bad. it's museum officials deny claims that they are underrepresented the deaths of polish jews and also say the work has been the target of online harassment and fake news reportedly incited by nationalists and coincides with the introduction of poland's new holocaust speech law was passed this year and it bans any claims that the country collaborated with nazi germany during world war two specifically the legislation prohibits references to wartime nazi death camps in the country is being polish those in violation of
6:36 pm
the law face up to three years in prison the lord has faced a backlash in particular from israel and the united states why the polish government has seen fit to come up with this legislation for beating people to have an opinion about the guilt or lack thereof of the polish nation it is bad for governments to try and regulate culture and history and literature. one no one can understand what why they would like to have some control over the narrative but it is all in all a bad practice the history of auschwitz no matter whether they are polish or foreign should be the guides there and this should be. the standard everywhere in every museum or memorial and this claim that guides

6:49 pm
as we look at the media mergers going on our teams millet chan takes us a long look. added plus we'll take a little trip to miami where our to correspondent nicholas o'donovan tells us how climate change and rising sea levels are reshaping one of the nation's largest housing markets plus nestle's the food company candy company is paying billions of dollars to starbucks r.t. correspondent alex behala vidual tell us why and we talked tesla's terrible troubles and other auto news with the car coach lauren fix all of that on our righteous road ahead but first let's get to some as. a rising u.s. dollar has caused the worst two week loss of capital emerging economy bond markets since two thousand and sixteen nearly one billion dollars exit in the bond markets for emerging economies in just the last week according to the financial times the u.s. dollar is recent strength particularly relative to currencies and developing nations is believed to be driving the move away from debt in emerging markets
6:50 pm
a significant portion of developing nation debt is denominated in dollars adding a significant multiplying factor to their debt burden when the dollar rises some emerging economies as take have taken more dramatic measures to support their currencies as we reported here last week argentina raised interest rates three times in just one week to prop up the argentine peso. and workers at air france walked out on monday pushing their worst workplace action into a fourteen day and putting the last making airline survival in the balance according to a french economy minister last week the c.e.o. of the company officially known as air france k l m insisted on putting a previously rejected pay proposal to a vote among the workers and staking his c.e.o. position on a yes vote well it went down and then it's now it's lacking a leader as it continues to seek settlement economy minister bruno lemaire told
6:51 pm
reporters the survival of air france is in the balance the union that represents air france's demand. doing an immediate five point one percent pay increase with future boost versus a proposal from management for a two percent raise. the kill a way of volcano on hawaii's big island is producing massive rivers of lava toxic gas and sprouting jets of molten rock over three hundred feet high the eruption has also led authorities to order evacuation for at least seven hundred residents who went to air so far the lava has caused millions of dollars in damage and has destroyed over thirty homes lava began creeping across the island on saturday the day after a six point nine earthquake the worst to hit hawaii in four decades last year visitors to the island spent more than sixteen billion dollars and according to the hawaii tourism authority visitor spending this year in q one is already up by more than ten percent the airlines are not reporting flight cancellations to hawaii and
6:52 pm
tourism dollars are expected to continue to flow even as the lava flows far away from resort related areas. and now we turn to the fifth generation of wireless technology five g. there is a race to develop five g. in the leaders seem to be china and the united states but there's more to it than simply incremental speed the media merger mania is playing right into the five g. race artie's mobility explains. currently americans have four major mobile network operators or and then ows to choose from when selecting cell phone service that slim selection is about to get even slimmer if regulators permit number three m. n. o. t. mobile to acquire the number four company sprint in a proposed twenty six point five billion dollars deal the c.e.o.'s of team mobile and sprint appeared in a joint commercial to announce their plans for today were announcing that t.
6:53 pm
mobile and sprint have reached a definitive agreement to come together and form a. new stronger company a company that will super charge the on carrier strategy create robust competition and lower prices across wireless video and broadband a company that will create thousands of new american jobs and the only company with the capacity to quickly create a broad and deep nationwide five g. network the two exacts focusing on the union creating new jobs and bringing nationwide five g. service and expanding access across rural america gary even playing the china card saying that america is falling behind china as a leader in five g. technology as the only card left to play after a previously failed bid presented to antitrust regulators just a few years ago the risk of rejection by the department of justice will play an important role in the number of choices consumers will have talking points are catered to the ears of president donald trump whose administration has outlined
6:54 pm
a desire to outpace china in the world of tag but according to former f.c.c. chairman tom wheeler playing the china card may backfire since the trump administration has already weighed in on issues of national security when broadcom acquisition of qualcomm was blocked behind the bluster of saving face over china's five g. capabilities the real reason behind this merger according to business experts is simply that neither team mobile or sprint have the capital to compete against a t. and t. or verizon independently in building out their five g. networks eighteen t. and verizon have shelled out twenty two billion and seventeen billion dollars respectively to invest in modernizing their networks in two thousand and seventeen while t. mobile and sprint only spent six billion combined this merger makes great business sense for the number three and number four carriers but are burdened with proving to regulators that this will not hurt consumers the current four company competition has driven down wireless plan prices by thirteen percent in just twenty
6:55 pm
seventeen alone the only burden antitrust lawyers have to prove is that. there's any possible chance these two corporations may monopolize the consumer the burden only need to prove the possibility not intent. and joining us live to discuss this subject is the intrepid middle of chad manila you've been monitoring this whole thing but tell us why it's so important why is this an important story you you come up with something that i think a lot of people may not have seen well there are i think there are a couple reasons why this is a big story number one on the national or international front this is a story where the carriers t. mobile and sprint are trying to pander to president trump because he knows that china and the u.s. are sort of frenemies so they are telling him that hey we'll get ahead of all this and we'll make the whole country five g. ready if you allow if your administration allows this merger to happen and on the
6:56 pm
second front is that they're saying that they will be able to spread five g. all across the u.s. into rural communities and in fact in dead zones where like you and i have talked about before you should be in the middle of a suburb and find a dead zone you know it's somewhere in north carolina you're not out on a farm you're sitting in the middle of a subdivision wired why are you in a dead zone that makes no sense t. mobile and sprint say that they are going to fix those gaps in all those various communities so there's two things here just start with the substance of it connecting people whether or not it's four g. or five people don't have four g. right it's right and as we talk about on the show all the time and you talked about on this show and other places having that connection is important for education it's important for business and economies so getting more connection where the next forty five years important but what you said is very interesting you know we've got
6:57 pm
this controversy with the eighty and the time warner merger that's been in the the news. the government just rested in the it's in the hands of the judge now but now with regard to t. mobile and sprint there are actually as you use a making a public relations ploy really to an audience of one donald trump really is in the case of eighteen t. and time warner they say that's vertical integration in the case of sprint and t. mobile which we have here you're buying out your competition so i think they're they're big hurdle is going to be with the f.c.c. and with the d.o.j. because regulators are going to say you're just trying to monopolize the market now there's going to be three choices so you know fewer choices are usually kind of bad for the consumer but you know with all these guys investing billions and tens of billions of dollars into expanding their networks anyway i think we're going to be able to get over those dead zones and role of communities and the connectivity that you say that will help education help commerce will be able to get over those
6:58 pm
pretty soon in the in the very near future great analysis mill i think you're right they may be playing on hoping that president trump will hope that he's going to be president five g. that's right all the f.c.c. on this that's right militant thank you for being here you're a shit. and now we go to miami where climate change and rising sea levels are reshaping one of the nation's largest housing markets here with more is r t correspondent nicholas o'donovan. miami is known worldwide for its speeches and beautiful weather millions of cheeriest come here to stay at seaside hotels wealthy locals invest in luxurious villas overlooking the bay and the up income in urban areas a home to a vibrant an international community of young professionals. so miami is growing at a fast pace cranes and construction sites have been part of the city's landscape for years and home prices have been growing steadily since the recession but real
6:59 pm

7:00 pm
