as the leader of north korea place host to russia's foreign minister r.t. is the only international channel load of follow the delegation to kim jong palace . i can barely remember being given such access at other locations around the world and given the fact that we're inside the residence of the north korean leader kim jong un whom i'm absolutely shocked. despite the prospect of a trade war the u.s. goes ahead it imposes hefty tariffs on steel imports from the you and other trading partners reaction to that this morning. the u.n. raises the alarm over an escalation of fighting in the libyan city of has the french president pushes for talks between willing factions inside libya. and it leaves two main euro skeptic parties finally form

a coalition government giving rise to fears of a major shift of political landscape. hi good morning ali amir of moscow this friday the first of june as it is so warm welcome for me kevin owen with this half hour news update first continuing uncertainty over a u.s. north korea peace summit later this month pyongyang officials have been meeting american diplomats in new york meantime russia's foreign minister met with the leader of north korea in person on thursday our correspondent has been following that meeting and it was granted exclusive access to one of kim jong un's residences to as you're about to see. we were told to leave most of our belongings and all our mobile devices. now

they're taking us somewhere. so we're here in this van and just to keep our men one photographer and myself rolling a lot of state in. this area is completely deserted and it looks like we're in circling something that appears to be the palace. if only someone told me where exactly we are right now but we are being told to fall this man. i don't really know what exactly this place this but it looks to be the area where it came john will be greeting certainly loughborough of and the reason why i think so is because just through this door i saw came john sister and she was having some sort of conversation with the guards but nobody speaks english here hello.

and as far as i understand this is. i believe this is a bit of a historic moment we still don't know whether the camp crump meeting is going to happen but at least sergey lavrov is here having direct talks with the supreme leader of north korea. sergey lavrov and kim jong whom are talking behind this wall we were asked to wait in this room so let's just have a walk around and take a look at what they have to offer. dark north korean chocolate i can tell you

that it tastes just like any other dark chocolate anywhere around the world some lemonade. so this is how suddenly you get treated to cranberry juice rooms residents. i can barely remember being given such. a location is around the world we were just . at the present which is just outside the doors. of the. city. and given the fact that we're inside the residence of the north korean leader kim jong un the again i'm just going to say i'm absolutely shocked. and. it is really disappointing that we won't be able to find out exactly what's being said behind these stories but just

a few hours before mr kim and mr lavrov met the russian foreign minister said in making the korean peninsula free of nuclear weapons is a very delicate issue maintains that the interests of all sides must be respected. so that said it all ended with. russia see whether the north korean leader will accept the invitation for now we're heading back to the airport in the russian foreign minister's motorcade. franco right. smalling after months of postponing and threats of a trade war donald trump. and many of the imports the e.u. as well as canada mexico retaliate now the u.s. commerce secretary will play the possible consequences for america's.

these are bullets through road or through going through the fundamental river those who are going to revert it will get over the course we'll look at the reaction that we've got from europe what could this mean for the european union you may aswell we've had the u.k. government responding with pure disappointment at the reaction for this decision in the e.u. . they're not happy either this could reportedly affect seven point four billion euros worth of european exports to the us and the standard li there's a little bit of outrage going on there the most affected could be the automobile industry and that would mean germany would be hit that the hardest if that's the case because they are the powerhouse of course of the of that sector now the president of the european commission john claude younker he has called this decision a horrible day for trade decision but. totally unacceptable

that it can't push you look at measures when it comes to. that create. has also put the matter to the world trade organization because they are responsible for settling trade disputes and settlements of course i mentioned germany before will they have reacted to the news the german foreign minister has also slammed the decision calling it illegal he's vowing a united response saying our answer to america first can only be europe united the french president emmanuel micron has also slammed the decision it's a mistake because it addresses the international imbalance by dividing and by bringing economic and trade nationalism economic nationalism leads to war we've previously heard from brussels they've promised to retaliate to america's protectionist steps with its own twenty five percent terrorists on various projects

including mo. it's a cycle of gene cigarettes crown beaches and peanut butter again. so now we will also impose import tariffs this is basically stupid process the fact that we have to do this but we have to do it we will now impose tariffs on harley davidson motorcycles on levis blue jeans and bore but we can also do stupid we also have to be this stupid so the next question is of course how will trump reactive counter measures are enforced well he's already threatened to respond to any e.u. trade barriers by saying that he will put tax on cars produced by european auto makers so you can see that's a huge verbal tit for tat going on it will depend on whether the can forget forgive and indeed to live with these new measures and dear richard are reporting that well domestic reaction in the u.s. has also been negative with both democrats and republicans criticizing the move

wall street analysts michael hudson believes the u.s. could actually suffer more than europe from these terrorists. from the american economy and the thought that seems to be his guiding principle by putting the tariffs on aluminum and steel is to raise the price of aluminum and steel to americans and all of a sudden this oversupply is going to be sold to europeans and asians so that their manufacturing can buy lumen him and steal more cheaply to make many of fractured goods much lower cost in american manufacturers can do so trump is given in europe and asia an opportunity to undersell american manufacturers that tim aware of anything industrial beer kegs if we're talking about frying pans cars anything made out of aluminum and steel now are the foreigners outside of america will have

an advantage over the american producers. the u.n. humanitarian offices reported on civilian suffering in libya he says there's been an unprecedented escalation of fighting in the coastal city of durban a in the past week alone at least five civilians have been killed two of them children clashes an air raids of also cut electricity and water supplies to over one hundred thousand people the u.n. report comes as the french president's been pushing for negotiations between the country's warring parties next our senior correspondent. has more on what role france wants to play in libya the french president mr mcauliffe has a certain brand he sells himself as a bit of a peacemaker his latest effort a libyan peace summit bringing together he need is some of whom are war with each other back on was proud to sit upon you for the first time these libyan leaders under this format some of whom do not mutually recognize each other's positions

have met together through excepted to work together and approved a joint declaration this is an essential important step and which makes what will come next possible. you'd think in reality there were a lot of handshakes forced smiles and photo ops when it came to actually making peace they signed nothing any agreement they had was verbal in diplomacy that means nothing or over but everyone joined in more than a dozen armed groups and organizations who signed the letter saying that this summit did not represent them. we call for a real dialogue focused on the aspirations of libyan society in its aspects nevertheless pundit's macron hailed it as a breakthrough after all getting all these people together under the same roof was

an achievement not so much the main act as were there in july last year at this same summit also hosted by macros. the courage that is yours today by being here and by agreeing to this joint declaration is historic is to take your risk despite things that could have been against despite the actions of others to work towards a process of national reconciliation and long term peace. and nothing changed but maintaining the brand takes effort macros really try. the libyan people aspire to safety stability and to live better to be able to express their sovereignty and yes about safety and stability than are a coastal city in libya has been under siege for almost a year now and it's only gotten worse the escalation of fighting there has reached unprecedented levels once the un the libyan national army led by general have

who was at summit is trying to take the city from a local warlord and islamists it's been a tough battle. on this happy occasion we say that zero hour for durness city liberation has come. local sources report the protection forces a currently taking positions amongst civilian infrastructure in residential areas mostly in the center of the city and reportedly in civilian clothing since twenty second maybe that has been a rising civilian casualty toll as a result of indiscriminate shelling of. residual areas in general have to arch rival handed i'll missionary was also at micron's gathering he urged for an immediate cease fire and two could jab at the general i don't recognise the chief

commander named tough star he said that the very same day the four libyans pledged to work constructively in paris no surprise that the thing was signed merely an dorst question is who is going to remember this indorsement and for how long. folksong southern europe next after several attempts at talian coalition parties are finally formed western europe's firsts euro skeptic and and he establishment government is about to take power after months of political turmoil in that country former law professor a novice in politics kaante then said to be sworn in as prime minister later on friday along with his new cabinet one of the coalition leaders who promised to expel thousands of migrants will head the interior ministry the new head of the labor ministry has plans for a basic in phone income for struggling citizens their unemployment still very high among the young in italy and polish savannah is going to serve as the e.u.

affairs minister after his nomination as finance minister was rejected for being too euro skeptic which is what caused all these problems of late well while italy's new government then is managed we think to end the stalemate spain meantime is braced for a real political shake up this man's face very familiar maybe not for much longer the country's prime minister mariano rajoy faces losing his job a motion of no confidence has been filed in the main opposition socialist party they're no possibly going to replace him with their own prime minister it's only there a majority already back the vote indeed the move was prompted by a long running corruption scandal the prime minister also faced pressure over his handling of the big catalonia independence referendum to we got some thoughts from professor of iberian studies thomas harrington who thinks that these crises show real deep discontent specially in southern europe. these oscillations and again i'm not a columnist at these oscillations take place for a reason but there is

a lot of unsettled. thinking going on lot of unsettled feeling in the european union and yet what i think is consistently missing is a deep conversation about why are there so much discontent i think is a very strong tendency to want to point fingers but there is very little tendency to have profound discussions about how the e.u. might have gone wrong or how the right constructive war and durable model going forward for the political existence be to the solutions. the french government's resettling thousands of migrants in paris some of the even neighbors of the former french president nicolas sarkozy will have a reaction how that's going back after the break. so seem wrong all along just don't all. i mean you're all going to

get to see palin disdain. and in detroit equals betrayal. when something find themselves worlds apart when we choose to look for common ground. i played for many clubs over the years so i know the game and so i got. the ball isn't only about what happens on the pitch to the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super manager billionaire owners and speaks to the twenty million why. it's an experience like nothing else only because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful game a great chance for. the thinks it's going to.

survival of roseanne one of america's most populous it comes has been scrapped because of a tweet by the show's leading actress resign he goes down a flux without inflammatory coming can destroy years of work that for some at least throws out the sitcom revived to just this macho after more than a two decade hiatus was watched by a scene million people and destroyed by one tweet aimed at a former advisor to barack obama valerie jarrett muslim brotherhood and planet of the apes had a baby that would be valerie jarrett. rosen apologized calling herself an idiot and saying that really wasn't her medication talking that was one racist pill if so

but borderline humor often on the subject of race has long been part of bars repertoire black people are just like they're every bit as good as any people who don't think so just a bunch of banjo picking concentrating barefoot and a respectable white trash like god but what finally did was of course the tweet i mean come on you can word a masterpiece of an apology. i made a mistake i wish i hadn't but don't defend it please i'm not a racist i never was and i never will be one stupid joke in a lifetime of fighting for civil rights for all minorities at the expense of my nervous system family will never be taken from me but comparing a black person to an ape there's just no coming back from this what she said was blatantly patently the definition of race as we're seeing with tweeting something that listen to those of us if you're in public like you hear this slur a lot it's something that black people unfortunately deal with and have

a long time a.b.c. stepped up did the right thing even if you may have these biases you can't act on it in the corporate space but amid across the board condemnation some t.v. personalities try to live down the mistakes of their own past this imma send d.c. anchor you've just watched has a history of being homophobic and plain offensive online she herself tried to mend her reputation with a mix of apologies as someone who is not a member of the elegy beauty community i regret the way address the complex issue of the closet and speculation on a person's sexual orientation with a mark in town and sarcasm it was insensitive tone deaf and dumb and eventually the channel two can know our action against alec baldwin keith olbermann and others roseanne barr has a history of offensive outrageous bad grab crazy statements the left ignored but the moment she was seen as pro trump it became troubling. reed could be the only

liberal voice to get away with overboard jokes except she's not the corporation does not really find any problem with her people would have questionable paris but roseanne came in i think they really didn't want her to be on television anyway because of the protests from message the c.e.o. of disney bob iger be rumored to be trying to be the president it's only twenty eight years a big time never childbirth so as soon as roseanne say it was you see what does bob iger do he calls valerie jarrett personally to apologize he would like to not have anything that is pro-choice on his networks because that interfere with his own personal thing and his own ideology we can all agree that racism should be stamped out but shouldn't the punishment be inescapable no matter what side of the political spectrum you belong to. thousands of migrants in paris have been cleared from the makeshift shelters along the city's canals roughly two hundred of them

have been resettled in a wealthy district in the french capital shall i do bensky want to find out what the residents thought about the new incoming neighbors. this is one of the nearly wrecked it camps in paris it's being set up to shelter around one hundred and seventy migrants who are amongst the thousand or so who are cleared from the canals of paris doing side waves thousands of migrants had camped along the canals for many many months living in squalid conditions with few to no comforts the mayor of paris and the interior minister. had been embroiled in a war of words over who was responsible for clearing the camps. the situation will be repeated indefinitely if measures not taken by local authorities to prevent the camps from reappear. we could have avoided waiting for months to

find shelter for those people the suggestion i made to the state was to build and reform a welcome center which is really the only the only option possible if we want to avoid the roadside so i'm waiting for the states to get back to me on that. now these migrants are being housed in florida pulling knowing one of paris's wealthiest aries the sixteenth up on the small it's also home to former president nicholas sarkozy p.s. g.'s back to pos football stadium and a whole mongol horse which is currently hosting tennis stars from across the globe for the french open some locals aren't over the moon about their new neighbors i think the people here are not very. pretty to see if people are here because they're alfredo afraid to say i'm some of them or most be very difficult and some of them are very very nice i'm sure but a really tough part of them maybe but. you never know how people can react

you can have some people who react very badly and some good you never know despite our thirty's choose not to most hospitable area because it is populated by many old people who are not really open minded so i think that this area is not the most welcoming you would you put us down i don't see any changes we don't communicate with migrants because we don't see them at all in the area so i guess gillies autonomous lee this is now the thirty fourth time in three years that my comments have been moved in paris but the problem seems to be cyclic it's never ending. which. was. oh authorities are due to continue to clear out of camps that emerged along paris. these canals in the next few days yet with the capital already overflowing and an

estimated five hundred fifty extra my quince arriving every week this seems to be little that if thought he can do to keep a lid on the problem even ski r.t. paris. football fever spreading just two weeks to go and counting to the biggest event of the game and his patient proven hard the day contained for the world cup in russia didn't go into orbit. but earlier on the grown folks watching odyssey this friday morning in moscow is coming up to twenty six minutes past nine o'clock keep the buy side of the great

been able to justice and there's been a couple. with no make this manufacture consent to step into a public well. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the final merry go round the sun me the one percent. we can all middle of the room sick. to my own i mean real news real world. radially reinforced rammed earth bricks is what they really are.

this more than seventy houses about. a hundred and forty people with families living here. it's really a way of forming cement. their sons coming in and heating their house and being stored in massive walls. sagebrush is the natural environment here but as we are containing the sewage and and using the plant stuff to process the sewage we create our own little way system here. we.

go to so if you go sophie shevardnadze the e.u. doesn't know what to do with its member hungary where strong prime minister or one dares to defy the vision brussels has for the future of the union so how well hungary hold under pressure and what will this dispute mean for the future of the union well i asked the hungary and foreign minister peter. a rift is widening at cross the e.u. cutting a line down the block in the shadow of the former iron curtain with eastern european members growing frustrated with brussels orders and the e.u. establishment put off by the eastern politics behavior in particular with hungary's migration and political decisions is there room in the union for several political

visions can the partnership figure out a way to balance national and continental interests or does the e.u. risk being torn apart. east west confrontation. so it's really good to have you again on our program welcome back its way on the. map here there are tensions between hungary and ukraine over the rights of the ethnic and variance in the west and you have said that ukraine stepped hungary in a back what is your reaction going to be hungary is reaction. well you know hungary was maybe the loudest supporter within the european union to the ukrainians to get the visa free regime and to make the. agreement come into force and unfortunately a couple of days after that there was a regulation passed in the ukrainian parliament which always the rights of the younger ians obviously when it comes to.
