requirement why can't i write that off as a charitable donation on my taxes. welcome back there is a major political and financial drama in europe this week as the italian president's rejection of a government coalition has set the stage for a vote that may decide the future of the euro zone over the weekend president sergio mata reller rejected a proposal slate of government ministers put forth by a coalition of anti-establishment reformist of the five-star party and the anti immigrant hard right league formerly the northern league leaders a five star in the league had been jockeying previously for a position in a coalition government since march one five star game day third of the vote the largest share for any single party while the league polled seventeen percent but
9:03 am
when the parties finally reached a pact the president rejected the coalition citing as causes belief that their proposed finance minister policy of bono wanted to pull italy out of the euro zone coalition leaders did not campaign on leaving the euro zone and angrily deny that they plan to but documents linked during the coalition talks seemed to out them as the euro skeptics at least in any event metro as reasoning has now framed the likely coming election as a referendum on italy's relationship with europe. buying a ticket and hitting the movie theater is a long tradition here in the united states and with the world's most iconic entertainment studios in hollywood it's no surprise that the u.s. is the world top movie market however that could be changing in the near future for the past few years china has been quickly catching up to the americans as the box office favorite revenue from north america is top ten billion dollars for at least
9:04 am
the past eight years while movie attendance has remained fairly steady in the u.s. over the past decade attendance in china has exploded in fact china could potentially surpassed north america as the largest movie market in the world as soon as get this this year while experts are skeptical of the country's potential china's ticket sales have already outpaced sales in the u.s. so far this year china which is currently the world's second largest box office market has seen their box office revenues grow from just more than a billion and a half dollars in two thousand and ten to more than eight billion dollars in less than a decade and it's become a key source of revenue for the country. but while china's theater attendance has skyrocketed in the last few years hollywood executives are now fretting about the future of their products in the country months ago some movie production companies fear of retaliation from tough trade threats from the united states but now they have found
9:05 am
a new reason to be concerned the chinese government. following recent shake ups in the ranks of the government the country's film industry will now be operated by the ruling communist party's ministry of propaganda in the past the country's film department worked under an independent governmental organization which was not affiliated with the communist party the move gives the ruling party more scrutiny of foreign films that are allowed in the country because the executives in hollywood another movie industry is to become an easy the move comes after president xi jinping is recent power consolidation which is allowed to serve indefinitely currently any foreign film showing in the country must be approved by the government before airing. and canada has opened its wallet to buy the trans mountain pipeline a move which has angered both of those on the left and right of the political spectrum the country's federal government is spending nearly three point five billion dollars to buy the pipeline at all the texas and all of the texas based
9:06 am
morgan's core assets in china and canada rather archies alex behind which joins us from toronto not china with more alex what's the federal government's logic in buying that controversial trans mountain pipeline we've talked about that thing many times that it seems like others lots of trouble there. oh yeah this is either a step forward or a step backwards according to your speaking to looks like prime minister trudeau who everybody thought wanted to be an environmentalist looks more like you know stetson hat texan oil baron or executive as he pushes this project through and they're buying this pipeline now we've talked about this pipeline as you mentioned here at the map kind of proves what this is and shows some of the controversial parts of it the fact we have a sixty year old leaky pipeline that goes through some of the most pristine areas not only in canada but in the world from the tar sands all the way up the mountains through forests and down to the pacific ocean which is going to have guaranteed
9:07 am
more tanker traffic if there is more oil there so that's where some of the controversy possible talk more about that but here's the logic behind what trudeau and his people are doing they say you know we need to have this pipeline to build basically confidence in this project if it's canadian old it's owned by the government and we can move forward from there to her mortgage going to keep working on this pipeline to expand it until august and then we can move forward to expand it you know they want to go to triple capacity and then somewhere down the road when markets get better the canadian government can sell this pipeline off to somebody and this is the logic behind this alberta as a premier rachel not least she's giving this a thumbs up you know that she's had a lot of problems with this since the tar sands are in her province she's even saying go throw two billion more necessary if there's any problems what does but how does that logic work one of the opponents to this pipeline will still be around not months but most likely years from now who are you going to sell this thing to with that opposition still happening tkinter borgen couldn't do it why would
9:08 am
somebody else be able to do it and that's why many people are saying that this is just a ploy in fact this pipeline is just meant for nationalized they should and that's it period in the long run. well i mean who is opposing this thing is it just environmentalist i mean you know that any environmentalist group would be opposed to as you say a leaky pipeline but what who is against this thing what environmentalists of course as you mentioned they are they've been protesting forever we also have native groups in this country who are being very vocal about this this goes through some of their land they have problems with this just passing through their land without their permission a and b. this is an environmental threat see if the people of canada especially those that live in the east are as i say the west coast tanker traffic and chances are you're going to have a spill of they're going to go up so all these people don't like it at all you also have the b.c. premier mr horrigan he's been opposing this from the very beginning and he's saying the same threats exist no matter if this is national or who owns it this is what's
9:09 am
happening on the right very different story they're saying we had a pipeline here being built for us five billion dollars invested by kidder borgen and now we are what the three point five billion us in a hole so this could have been done by a private company it wasn't done by a private company the government's taking it and you know the right they do not like anything with the words nationalisation and it also i mean it's a pretty strong argument from that part so left or right nobody seems happy about this in this country at least. when in doubt government steps and r.t. correspondent alex mileage thank you as always alex thank you. the chance of that is thracian place restrictions on doing business in the u.s. for chinese telecom giant. six weeks ago after a z t e broke u.s. sanctions by selling products to our rand in north korea but then in recent days mr
9:10 am
trump has decided to spare z.t. even allow them to get back into business in the us and some apparent arrangement with president g. jinping of china now members of mr trump's own political party are saying the madness has to stop in frontal opposition as u.s. senator marco rubio the florida republican who says congress will take steps to prevent the to eat from being able to do business in the united states all of this continues as a trade war to protect with trying to continues here to help sort of a third all out is radio and t.v. host steve wallace ok steve you've got to explain what the deal is with z t e it's a national security concern and a corporate security concern which is why we have these sanctions and they violated it but explain the circumstance well. has long been suspected it's a chinese multinational telecommunications company have long been suspected of espionage using the routers and other technical a technological equipment to spy corporately and national government agencies as
9:11 am
well and when they were found to be in violation of u.s. sanctions as you mentioned by doing business with and shipping technology to iran in north korea well the commerce department last year imposed severe sanctions seven years they were going to forbid for dealing with american companies that were their suppliers so that effectively would put them out of business so the president china picks up the phone calls donald. and says this company is going to go out of business if you believe what the outcome said and all these people are going to lose their jobs so downtime says we can't have that we're going to save the company so the new penalties are with the couple of billion dollars in fines they're going to have to put americans in positions of authority within the company to make sure that everything's on the up and up and they're also going to have to replace the entire management team and so that's what trump has agreed with with the commerce
9:12 am
department marco rubio for one has been leading the charge of amongst republicans and others who is outrage and says z t e should go out of business we don't want them here in this country we should ban them we should ban all chinese telecommunications companies from this country because they spied on us so that's where we are that's that's the latest and rubio seems to think that if they pass legislation in the house saying z.t. e has to go that even if the president vetoes that they will have enough people two thirds to override that veto it's a crazy circumstance where the president just flipping on these things which brings up another question stephen is how do you negotiate with a you know a deal maker in chief who trades their changes their positions all the time well i think this whole. and i think the tariffs which we'll get to that he says they won't be any would they have now there will be some it's all part of a grand scheme for us will we need china china needs us more than we need them in
9:13 am
the long run they have a three hundred seventy five billion dollars trade surplus with us they steal our intellectual property trump knows this he's looking for bargaining chips he's looking for for ways to prevent and fix both those those problems but he also needs china for north korea he needs them for other geo political reasons they're building islands in the china sea they're doing all kinds of things so trump sees all of this as one pot and he could pick and choose and cut and slice and just because he's. says one thing today doesn't mean it's going to be in the grand bargain wilbur ross commerce secretary is going to be in china this weekend trump is doing all these things now and ross then has all these bargaining chips in and oh ok i know trump said this but if you give us this i'll tell trump to go back on that it seems to have worked with north korea so far as far as getting a summit maybe to work with china in the grand scheme of things it's too early to tell we will hope it works out steve malzberg conservative t.v. and radio host thank you for filling always my pleasure thank you.
9:14 am
and before we go i ask at the top of the program what you would be if you lost seventeen thousand dollars in income this year well the answer is you'd be a mom of a mother today as moms equal pay day according to the bureau of labor statistics seventy percent of mothers in the us are in the workforce when i worked on capitol hill one of the things that drove me crazy was all of the commemorative bills to proclaim things like national dairy go to awareness day i'm serious sorry to the dairy goat farmers but there are certain things that we don't need to know but there are a bunch of reasons to raise awareness about serious subjects and equal pay is something super important because today and the numbers do matter here today we are one hundred fifty days into the year and one fifty is the extra number of days that
9:15 am
a mom would need to work to earn the same annual pay as a dead just nuts we have heard that women are paid about eighty cents for every dollar that a man makes but they get for working moms is even greater seventy one cents to the dollar there's a mom pay gap in every state in the union the worst state in which to be a mom as far as getting paid is in utah and the best state is in maine we're a mom gets eighty five cents to the dollar that a dad makes let's hope. things get better here are their c.e.o.'s there's a place to put some of those hard earned tax cuts thanks for watching be sure to catch boom bust on you tube youtube dot com slash boom bust artie we'll catch you next time. fifty years ago breaking within to come to get on as a sleeping pill the dust this is what i mean because octets does. the side effects

9:17 am
the chinese sometimes by the american and that's got to stop. you never know what's around the corner you never know what's in the pub you can walk into a nice fat excitement it's that look now and that's where the adrenalin rush comes from. and you can use a move by definition in the extreme so all. the violence is a part and it's almost a schizophrenia gang culture where you can do all these things and behave badly. they're born with all of horsepower for all. those muscle focus on the last. honest man and firm for more or less in the start. of

russia's foreign minister visits north korea. should bear in mind. considering potential deals with the united states. journalists criticize ukraine but staging the russian opposition journalist. called. a new artificial intelligence tool could possibly predict if a protest is going to turn violent analyzing social media activity. as opposed to winning the. civilians. in an exclusive interview with syrian president bashar al assad insists that damascus would never have used
9:21 am
chemical weapons against its own people and claims that there is never was in fact any civil war in syria. it is thursday may thirty first here in moscow now just off. the news team here having just rounded up this hour was top headlines. the russian foreign ministry has met with north korean leader kim jong un as pyongyang prepares for a potentially historic. peace summit with south korea and the united states he stressed that the peace process remains fragile. that is we think it's very important to approach the two weeks as delicately as possible to avoid any sudden surprises that should be new artificial drive for this process which would take a significant amount of time and detailed agreements that will not only provide for
9:22 am
the denuclearization of the korean peninsula but also for a stable peace across all of east asia we call on all sides to feel full responsibility for succeeding in this very important but a very fragile process. so to get up off that russia is interested in working with both careers and of the north should consider all factors in the peace talks including recent history of a correspondent. right now with some exclusive images from inside north korea this is a truly incredible opportunity for us to film inside the place where most high profile meetings in north korea happen just as the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov is talking to his north korean counterpart behind closed doors right there the moment when the russian top diplomat is gang is absolutely unique on the one hand the resolution of the korean peninsula crisis might be just a few steps away with
9:23 am
a massive concessions the north and the south have both been making and even donald trump to however we understand that any wrong move can make everything collapse so the question is why exactly surrogate and it up in the north korean capital russian diplomatic sources suggest that it was after several invitations in a row by mr lavrov apart during his visit to moscow we were also told that the north korean side wanted the trip to happen asap during a traditional quick chat with the journalists on the plane when we asked. why this was happening and what to expect of the visit his answer was well just have to see i don't know for now believe to try and go from the monsoon to power the home of the north korean parliament in pyongyang. meanwhile north korea is also planning
9:24 am
multiple talks with u.s. officials i meet on the certainty of the upcoming summit between washington and pyongyang a former u.s. diplomat jim john trust says the language of ultimatums is unlikely to solve the situation on the korean peninsula but's be aware there are a lot of people here in washington who do not want this summit to take place and they certainly do not want any kind of accord between north korea and the united states idea that this could be a gradual process which i think the president trump is open to a gradual process of denuclearization in exchange for a step by step change and the relationship between washington and pyongyang is a realistic one but i think here people here would like to present the north koreans with an ultimatum which of course will will will not solve the problem. journalists have rounded on the ukrainian authorities faking the assassination of a russian opposition john listing key international media and security watchdogs
9:25 am
have slammed the stunt as deplorable and regrettable the staged murder of journalists. by the ukrainian security service is distressing well the reappearance of the reports and maybe a great relief is deeply regrets crane's authorities who played with the truth no matter what the motive relieved that. he was alive i deplore the decision to spread false information on the life of a journalist it is the duty of the state to provide correct information to the public. the ukrainian authorities had claimed that they had found a russian journalist at a county bob junko with gunshot wounds in his flat in the capital it was claimed he died on route to hospital however later it was revealed the blood had been staged apparently in order to foil an actual plot to kill the journalist. prominent kremlin critic who is condemning russian activities in ukraine and syria is a contributor of a major u.k. news outlets like the guardian in the b.b.c.
9:26 am
. donald quarter now reporting on the fallout of this controversial case when a russian journalist was pronounced murdered in the ukrainian capital it didn't take long for the ceremonial finger pointing at russia to begin he was only working on things that were critical and investigative of russia and of the russian government as well he said there was nothing that was critical of ukrainians of course that network and its boss placing the blame on the kremlin and on russia journalist known political leanings have led some to point the finger in one direction it was a calculated deliberate international terrorist crime committed on the direct instruction of the russian authorities to get its who can blame them when the story has all the perfect ingredients the russian totalitarian machine putin's regime going after the kremlin critic except the guy turned up alive and well a magic in everyone's confusion what on earth is showing on fred all of these developments in just the last hour or so i know left out absolutely gobsmacked when
9:27 am
a second so what the heck actually have been here russia said it was relieved that our cause alive but also fiore us and understandably so after being falsely accused of murder questions of life and death in ukraine as well as the international community's trust in its politics are not being more than a bargaining chip for the kids regime to stir up on t.v. russian hysteria fellow journalists were outraged too when a state says a prominent journalist who had received threats was murdered i think the media have to report it but with the fake news in ukraine have reduced all of our credibility trump would be proud the question i have about this operation to expose russian agents is whether it was worth the discrediting of every credible news agency columnist and reporter especially in russia who. lived ukrainian officials when they reported a death had learned not to trust ukrainian authorities on donbass warrant but
9:28 am
assuming something like this official confirmation was solid apologies it's on wikipedia is most notable fake death so what gives while the murder was staged by the ukrainian secret service to foil an alleged kremlin plot they say they did it secretly not even his wife knew or imagine what the poor woman went through but one ukrainian lawmaker thinks this is ok because sherlock holmes successfully used the method of staging his own death to effectively investigate difficult and complicated crimes well if it happened in fiction must be good in real life too whether ukraine will produce evidence that there was ever a russian plot in the first place remains to be seen but after a stunt like this it's hard to imagine many will take anything he says at face value the taming is key i think just before we start the world cup in russia which is a sure case event for any country that will cut their or sort of cut and suddenly we're
9:29 am
getting the story switches does that which are designed i would speculate to discredit russia and discredit russia and the eyes of the world just as a supposed to host the world cup and so this is a very little mental campaign it's beyond target in russia because it's no interfering in areas in which all nations have in the past understood that they are off limits when it comes to using them for propaganda purposes such as trying to use the world cup to undermine the host nation that does nor good to anyone is specially at a time when we need to try and form an understanding. syria's president bashar al assad says more u.s. strikes targeting the syrian government are possible it was during an exclusive interview he gave to r.t. is what i guess the assad but also explained why he thinks it's wrong to call the conflict in his country a syrian civil war is a preview. the timing of this
9:30 am
alleged strike was after the victory of the syrian troops. let alone the fact that we don't have chemical weapons anyway and let the other folks that we're not going to use it against old people because the but the new syria was about winning the heart of the civilians this is the main button and we want it so how can you use chemical weapons against civilians that you want them to have to be supportive to the second if you go to that area it was very clear and by armies by factions in by civilians we never use such armaments or weapons in that area are going to harm everyone something that didn't happen and if you go to that area and you ask this if there was no chemical attack me or anyone. would have it all is not according to what we have actually.
