over the course of the last decade cheers work involves reporting on israel and the palestinian territories innocents held his post since april last year israel has given him fourteen days to leave the country we spoke to the outer director who told us that the real motive behind the decision is to disturb his organizations work. their reality is all of the allegations in the dossier relate to human rights activities many of which took place years ago before i joined human rights watch when i was a student in university and the reality remains that even according to the interior ministry neither i nor human rights watch promote boycotts human rights watch is an organization that covers over ninety countries across the world we've won a nobel peace prize you know for efforts we document abuses not only by israel but also by the palestinian authority and by hamas this is the first time of course human rights watch that israel has ordered human rights official out of the country
1:31 pm
who've been working here for nearly three decades i made a fifty plus year occupation characterized by systematic rights abuse and institutional discrimination so their real name is clear it's to muzzle dissent. what human rights watch says this is not about the director himself but about checking the organizations activities in israel and also they said that it supports the director and will fight for the decision to be referred to a mushy care again says the organization will also push on with this of the obstacles barring me from operating here will not stop our reporting will continue to document rights abuses and be vocal about the right situation on the ground but i think it's a very worrying signal guarding where israel is and is going we intend to challenge a decision before an israeli district court and we intend to continue to raise pressure not only to reverse this decision but also to rescind the law that

1:38 pm
live now in the studio to talk about this firstly look congratulations your team the champions of russia has the trophy to prove it how does it feel thank you andrew well it's for the absolutely fantastic for us and you know it's it from suede for for fourteen years this title and now we're also the breaking absolutely i mean i was there at the game last weekend a fantastic end to the match to you wasn't it very very dramatic but you surprised a lot of people this year winning this title at what point in the season did you personally think you know what we might win this maybe in the winter break after we have missed. several several games when they're all like four or five i don't remember exactly by. when to start or pay you probably could achieve a sure way into the first thoughts were the two guys believe that from the very beginning the jefferson are far better than international and our kept i'm going to
1:39 pm
nice of you. absolutely and at no point did you have any doubts because i was following this very closely all the time come on the last three games there's no win no goal scored part time for us and the fans were petrified we're going to finally give it up at the end but you put persisted with it and you beat your rivals then eat last weekend my home to my actually i wasn't born and. raised in same business where it was my first team so it was a drama for me as well right now overall you are obviously extremely pleased with the way it played out we're sitting here just thirty five days away from the world cup fever says it believes that russia now is ready is that your perception you're a man in football you've been around most of the stadiums of russia how do you perceive russia and its and the prospects for the world cup i think my personal opinion obviously we're really small me most small stuff to come about but in
1:40 pm
general we're absolutely ready and we are waiting we're very exciting i'm personally very excited because it's a dramatic absolutely think i never could dream about when i was a boy the walcott being my my home country in my hometown in my city so invisible it's unbelievable it's always so excited about it i'm not as close a fan is coming over to the country what you think they should expect here should expect we be surprised because you have because of i mean positively surprised because we could show them our country from inside this is a beautiful chronicle you will see you will see the different it's a different culture maybe a little bit from from the west countries but it's it's something we could probably . i'm sure you. followed western media too. and there's a lot was a lot of negativity surrounding tournament before they start it doesn't matter which one and russia is no different people are concerned about crowd trouble. i'm
1:41 pm
one hundred percent sure they will we know it will be very calm very very you know . everything will be all right because you really made a tremendous drop in the police and the clubs and selves we influence the people we said to grace we should be we should be very welcome and we should really spread across fewer of us to to to to be our guests too because it's it's a it's a huge thing for the country for the clubs for the russian food before you know of us so i'm sure everything will be absolutely normal absolutely all right and. i expect you could expect only good things from you will obviously very close with fans to you particularly lokomotiv how are they feeling about being a country that hosts the world cup. our stadium are real and not host matches but the all the talking about there which games they could be reserved and there are a few crowd to get tickets and all this stuff sold it all talking just only about
1:42 pm
how the russia could have what our chances are not yeah all things well let's talk about russia's chances because i mean a lot of people think ok russia well we remember them in two thousand and eight they got to the semifinals of the euros but since then it hasn't been great has it i mean i don't want to game the last world cup i think the failed to qualify for the one previously you had g.c. russia's chances first of all i want to remind you that we not participate or world cops all the time it's for us it's a situation or we honor and it's something to be here and we never we never got through the group stage in our in russian history so for us to get away it will be huge huge result and we will celebrate it or all around yeah i could i could. with you the group is not very hard is saudi arabia but they qualify to the world cup and this is something and it was mom. it's not sinatra you're easy to find i've
1:43 pm
heard you know how dangerous he is absolutely if he's on fire and were this. is the more so for you then if russia just manages to get out of the group that will be success think a look at how the country perceives it it will be a great success and great success and great celebration for us to mentor and everything the guys would agree and i am very proud that at least two three guys are in. but. maybe all three of them will play and we're all looking mighty from a locomotive so let's just run through the interesting characters too so you get the mid and shoot brothers who play midfield also twin brothers twin brothers. and then which other players might come from the committee for energy field make the squad what dignity of right we also could use and or stand he's to man whose job it would be local so we hope we believe he could play as well
1:44 pm
defined i mean for me there are some who could be in the mix so we wish all the luck all the best to the guys and. do you think we're seeing a new beginning for russian football i say this because you have a very good youth academy and you're starting to see the results you know the middle shit brothers they've helped you win the league now they're in the national team to. it you have positive feelings about it we have one of the greatest economy and you who look at it are the russian other russian clubs maybe twenty of our former. players from from marketing a plane all around russian primarily. as you mentioned many of them as part of three for directly from you but our foreign boys they also from other clubs are also part of our national team. so yeah we continue to do our job with the good guys for for the national team for the clubs for the full force so i have a very great feeling about it so we are very promising and in terms of. what we say
1:45 pm
their feelings towards playing in russia the host nation for the world cup they relaxed about it does it perhaps put more pressure on them or are they more relaxed because they know the stadiums the fans it's a funny combination isn't it yeah for young guys it's a pressure but they will do great i'm sure about it because it's it's one. by one their life chance to play you whole country and the world cup in something absolutely unbelievable to dream when you go you leave a dream now it's something from past and you have some other internationals that are playing playing in the world cup also we have the national team for fun his and leadoff through and team we have my cerebus from poland and we have residents are local from croatia and were missed. out some from not participating yeah on the chap who scored the winner last weekend yet never
1:46 pm
push we probably will have to work to get him absolutely mama from here and there and there are the champions of hugo of last year zero. scored on the very good at scoring the last minute import pressure pressure of our special were created and their approach i mean they must be as excited as the russian player is that this is sort of coming exciting to be so high pay to play in the same country they play in the championship. and the world cup we're all waiting for it and i was looking at sales of world cup tickets half of them i think what out of two million have gone to russians i mean there's no shortage of demand in russia to get to one of these games i'm not sure the demand is huge everyone is on the old. all new fans forums that people always discuss and how to get extra tickets. ok just a final one then i know you probably won't want to do this but your prediction the
1:47 pm
sky brushed against saudi arabia we should we should we go for we three we should be in the classic style. i mean in attacking style and because. we all know holding back. thank you very much for coming in so next year congratulations on the russian title it's a fine try fees and i think at the time that look might see it to get the name on that very well done thank you thank you so much and we should be the president. will clap you watching our team to national we're going to be back with more news for you at the top of the. structure of the way anti american anti-democratic and you can look at that quite plainly by understanding the stock price approach or have it was that risk but so it's trading i think there are three hundred thousand dollars a share so the message from charlie munger and warren buffett to americans is
1:48 pm
unless you've got three hundred thousand dollars to buy one share of berkshire hathaway you're you're a peasant here you know they are the neo feudal lords that are building the system milking the system abusing the system and aggregating wealth as raunchy a coupon clippers and nickel and dime or they added nothing to the economy. is supported to no doubt armenia is not ukraine or georgia and our experience is unique to certain extent we're building on the success and the fielder's of past efforts to address the issues that you're talking about so in many ways we have a leg up on anything best been tried in the past this is not just florida. a grassroots effort by the armenian people for the armenian people.
1:49 pm
this is boom bust broadcasting around the world from washington d.c. i'm partial to coming up today we spoke about president donald trump decision to withdraw from the iranian nuclear deal yesterday that just occurred actually as he went to air well today we get even more into the details with a particular emphasis on the economics will get we've got several folks on tap to discuss a sudden market moves is actually already occurred plus gene splicing of plants is big business of big business that has been dominated by u.s. based companies that however may be changing and can you guess which nation wants to be the leader the answer coming up this price kaufman author of bet the farm house stop being rude joins us to discuss it's going to be good and we're going to
1:50 pm
get started right now. as most of us know by now president donald trump decision to withdraw from the united states from the six nations agreement with iran on nuclear issues is making waves in diplomacy but it is also impacting business big time while president trumps decision was cheered by the prime minister of israel and by the kingdom of saudi arabia the leaders of france germany and the united kingdom all parties to the agreement expressed regret and concern over mr trump's decision the three leaders pointed out that the agreement or j. c.p.o. way was unanimously endorsed by the un security council in a resolution twenty twenty twenty two thirty one the resolution remains the binding international legal framework for the resolution of the dispute. about iranian nuclear program the spat spilled over into business and economics says the newly credentialed u.s. ambassador to germany richard grinnell a former fox news contributor tweeted within hours of taking office that quote
1:51 pm
german companies doing business in iran should wind down operations emae deity a former german ambassador to the u.s. tweeted back never tell the host country what to do if you want to stay out of trouble so things are heating up and in the markets all was up after trump's announcement with west texas intermediate trading north a seventy dollars per barrel today at nymex and brant crude trading in london up three percent earlier today pushing seventy seven dollars iran is the third most productive producing member of opec responsible for about three percent of global oil supply or two point five million barrels per day. as the u.s. leaves the iran deal china prepares to strew been filling an empty space china is one of the signatories to the two thousand and fifteen iranian nuclear agreement and with the u.s. out the asian nation now is in and playing
1:52 pm
a bigger role in middle east diplomacy r.t.s. alex the high leverage joins us from toronto with more alex although the u.s. may be gone key european players russia and china have remained a part of the deal so far iran seems to be keen on continuing to play ball at least a little bit moving forward what can we expect to see from china in particular. china is an interesting well you know we've been calling kind of the sleeping dragon forever but it looks like it's been sleeping with one eye open especially when it comes to the middle east at last he mentions a signatory of this deal and when it comes to iran now while china says you know we were grette the fact that the u.s. has left this deal but we are going to safeguard it we are going to back this deal as long as we have to and china has a lot of say not only is that a part of the deal but china's play things very intelligently from the very beginning while the rest become fully countries like russia they you and germany france the u.k. as well as the united states were really dug into the political side of things that
1:53 pm
china was looking more at the economic side of things so its ties now to iran are more economic than anything a lot of oil goes to china india is a huge buyer as well so we're talking about the two most populous countries in the world but china in particular look it's a business thing so it is in there and being so tight with iran on that front makes it really a big deal in this agreement it wouldn't be surprising if the rest of the countries kind of said hey it's your turn to step up and china would lead this forward with a renegotiation or whatever might happen to this deal in coming days and months very interesting and appreciate the metallica reference i caught it in thank you but what are the economic pluses and minuses for china alex with with the u.s. leaving this deal. well you know it's china and the world really look at the u.s. is also going to get hit we're talking about aerospace here where boeing included you know this is this is not a good thing once you start talking about these type of sanctions of the country
1:54 pm
that started opening up and now you're kind of forcing it to close back up there was a lot of business going on here coming from the chinese perspective of course this is the downside when the united states is going to say and has been saying that any company that does business with china while it may face or sorry with its business with iran may face sanctions this includes chinese companies and of course we know the relations with china are not really the best now would between the u.s. and china so this is not a positive move in that direction also we're talking about isolationism in a sense because right now what we're seeing from the other countries the e.u. and from russia and from china is well ok america babai if you don't want to be a part of this deal you don't really have to word things happened here though is if you see the closing of iran which china was really interested in investing in that's a downside that's a major downside but the plus side for china is and this is a backfiring of what happened to the u.s. european companies that the u.s.
1:55 pm
would say to these european companies and banks listen if you're working with iran we're not going to work with you well china at the same time can say hey come work with us and that might happen you might see europeans and the rest of the world turning towards china and away from the states that's definitely something that donald trump does not want to happen but at this point china is playing intelligently laying low being very diplomatic and again you know donald trump is always he's always got that back in a better word a trump card some place this might be just a game for now he knows that iran is a growing player in the world when it comes to economics hopefully he's just not pandering to the saudis and netanyahu this might be a renewed renegotiation scheme we don't know but at this point china is taking advantage of it and as we move forward. they are becoming a stronger and bigger player in the middle east anyway you turn it they keep filling the vacuum don't they alex r.t. correspondent alex mann hyla thank you as always thank you. and the cost of
1:56 pm
president trump getting out of the iranian deal is a major blow to one particularly large u.s. company alex mentioned them right there boeing the plane maker iran has orders for one hundred ten boeing airplanes and another hundred seventy jets from european multinational plane maker air bus both sales are worth roughly forty billion dollars the largest looming concern from boeing shareholders is related to the sixty five wide body seven seventy seven's expected to be delivered to iran with the economic sanctions being reinstated by the u.s. department of treasury both boeing and airbus export licenses to iran will be revoked in ninety days what does this all mean for the plane makers and in particular for the seattle based boeing let's ask conservative t.v. and radio host steve malzberg steve thank you for joining us i know you've been looking at this and trying to figure it out really does put boeing in a pickle and air bus doesn't it. yeah well let's start with
1:57 pm
a boeing and you know i'll jump to the end first the c.e.o. of boeing said you know what if we lose this business we'll deal with it and if we somehow keep it we'll consider it a bonus and here's why you know boeing has been i think last year was a top performing stock in the in the dow this year it's up about fifteen percent yesterday on this new it was flat so nobody panicked nobody you know was selling off now here's the deal they're going to lose the twenty billion dollars presumably but they never put these planes in their backlog they have six thousand commercial jets on their backlog that that means you know that they still have to produce and there are no order back order and they never included the iranian jets on that backlog so we're talking about about four hundred and fifty billion dollars plus so that's why the c.e.o. could say you know if we lose ten percent that we never included anyway ok we'll deal with that so that's that's the that's the party line that they're taking right
1:58 pm
now and i don't there are steve that you know boeing has about one hundred forty one thousand employees not just in seattle but around the u.s. and so that's comforting news that you're reporting there and we appreciate that how about air bus yeah well air bus is probably going to feel the pinch more and the reason air bus is falling victim to these sanctions and is right in the crosshairs is because two reasons one they have a plant in the united states and they meet the threshold of having ten percent of their parts made by united states companies so that's why they're they fall under the sanctions and that's why they're going to suffer the loss of about nineteen billion dollars worth of the sales that you alluded to earlier yeah and there. did drop a little bit we're going to talk about the stock more in a while but then it's been going back back and forth you know as we've reported there's been some strong reaction from europe to present. so the president's move
1:59 pm
what are the implications for those european companies steve those that are doing business with iran or might be planning to do so in the future while the european union foreign ministers are going to meet with the iranian foreign minister their counterpart and they're going to say hey we're going to do everything we can we don't want to be part of this politically and of course as we're talking about now from a business standpoint as a matter of fact there are some business leaders in the european union who say let's pass a statute that says we're not part of this but then there are other business leaders part who say who have connections to the u.s. who do business with the u.s. who say wait a minute we're going to get clobbered by the treasury department with fines and bad relations with trump who has said that if european. companies participate with iran after we say no after we tell them they cat there's going to be problems so they don't want to risk it as far as what companies what sectors the sectors you know it's oil and gas it's also cars it's also planes airplanes it's also the hotels
2:00 pm
you've got a dialer german company which plan to sell forty thousand cars a year in iran that's going to go by the way side volkswagen on the gas side you have the french company total and g.e.'s oil and gas as well you have british airways aloof tons of which are going to suffer and hotel chains from france and from spain also get a feel the pinch big time steve we appreciate you looking into this and sharing with us our viewers thank you so much steve malzberg host of the steve malzberg show thanks for joining us however my pleasure. and following the announcement we've been speaking about at least one sector was thrilled to see it go through can you guess right the defense sector yesterday following president trump's announcement making it official stocks for the defense industry shot through the roof here to tell us the latest on the moves is already correspondent dan cohen didn't think so.
