maybe it's time for the united states. head of the g. seven. as world leaders joined forces. of the united states. maybe. today but we also don't. need. after teaching children. for the chinese. regional security cooperation.

international. the g. seven summit will get underway the tensions between traditional allies and on the streets of thousand protesters gathered to oppose the. leaders of the world's biggest economy. america imposition of. the french president has even suggested that america could find itself. maybe the american president doesn't mind being isolated today but we also don't mind being six if need be and it seems like himself is preparing for a tough gig at the g. seven he's tweeted that he's ready to fight with his fellow world leaders over the issue of trade he tweeted that the european union itself is charging the u.s.

big. takes a closer look. the g seven june summit seems already destined for dysfunction with a heap of complaints from the u.s. as european allies some are suggesting a name change to keep up with the times we should have been united to invoke to save them to the group who challenges of the world and instead of that we would be divided between not to be just certain it would be a g six why it's not too hard to see where the fallout between washington and the rest of the pack is coming from in just two years donald trump has caused serious problems for a major international agreements first by announcing he was ditching the paris climate accord then the iran nuclear agreement the breakthrough deal which took years to negotiate and now he's unleashed a trade war with the e.u. by slapping tariffs on their steel and aluminum. the united states will withdraw

from the iran nuclear deal the united states will withdraw from the paris climate of court the united states has been taken advantage of other countries both friendly and not so friendly for many many decades i'm here to protect and one of the reasons i was elected is on protecting our workers on protecting our companies even the angle of merkel who is known for maintaining her cool during the worst diplomatic spats has had some strong words to share about the u.s. as recent exits this is. it is clear that especially with the exit of the u.s. from the climate deal there is dissent within the g seven just as much as with the announcement of tariffs on the mean human steel which we believe are illegal and also the issue of the iranian nuclear deal which the u.s. has withdrawn from. moreover merkel warns of this lack of compromise may lead to the g seven failing to issue

a joint statement that would make this year's summit in toronto the first ever and without a communique and chances are high it will with the french president emanuel macron also rumored to be unwilling to sign a joint paper with trump unless he makes some concessions and makes an effort to mend all the multilateral deals he's jumped which most likely will not actually according to his economic advisor this row is no big deal at all. there may be disagreements. i regard this as. much like a family quarrel we will do what is necessary to protect the united states its businesses and its workforce don't blame trump. blame the nations that have broken away from those conditions blame the other countries now that's what you want to hear right before a g. seven summit donald quarter r t. we heard from ron polled u.s.

president a presidential candidate and former u.s. congressman as well he believes that the hostility to the g. seven summit will yield nothing positive. and maybe they think trouble back down which he might you know a lot of times look at it was to north korea and all of a sudden you know his tune changed right now he might be just maneuvering they're betting on that and he has done that on foreign policy but there are certain things that he does not back down on for instance he did he campaigned on and he did not back down on or on iran and that's why we're moving in this direction so maybe he'll stick to his guns on these on these tariffs. and i think it'll be interesting and and worth watching over this weekend but i just don't think anything real positive is coming out because i don't think they talk about the real problems that cause are our climate of hostility and trading and coming up with

this but there are certain things that he does not back down on for instance he did he campaigned on it he did not back down in on or on iran and that's why we're moving in this direction so maybe he'll stick to his guns on these on these tariffs but they're they're punishing us the american taxpayer the american consumer he's punishing. so it really doesn't make any sense when the europeans spoke out after trump took us out of the nuclear agreement with iran and one of the europeans will stand up to it this is business. i know it's a rewrite of massachusetts kindergarten designed to help children survive a potential shooting has drawn concern from parents on shock on social media some have questioned its appropriateness in a country that seen at least one shooting the week this yeah well there were days that we have defended the rhyme saying quote this is the world we live in samir khan reports. imagine picking up your five year old from kindergarten and seeing

a strange nursery rhyme to the wall a reworked version of twinkle twinkle little star with ominous lyrics. look down log down log the door shut the lights off say no more go behind the desk and hide wait until it's safe inside look down look down it's all done now it's time to have some fun that picture was posted by a massachusetts mom who was taken aback when she learned her daughter had been doing active shooter drills as part of her pre-kindergarten program but she's not the only one another mom had a similar experience my girls were playing teacher this past weekend they had math time snack time and practice their active shooter drill earlier this week a class of a greater than pennsylvania were given bullet proof shields for the backpacks a local sports work company thought it would be a perfect gift for a middle school graduation the company's c.e.o. who happens to have a daughter at that school gifted shields to all of her classmates and an extra twenty five to the school now there's

a defensive measure parents and kids can take to ward off injury and improve chances of students survival. in the time of need. this duty then put it on this way. the student can hold it up to protect their base although perhaps it's worth noting bullet proof shields don't provide protection against assault weapons which have been most commonly used mass shootings but the company one plenty of publish it with such an unconventional graduation gift and there are also those who try to make money off the mass shootings last month a video game designed to simulate a school shooting sparked major public outrage and has been moved from a distributing form it offered users an opportunity to play as either the killer or a swat officer to point to catch the gunman.

parents sport outrage and why wouldn't they this year alone the country has seen a twenty three school shootings where someone was either injured or killed that average is one such incident every single week so far so it's not surprising that nationals are making a video games and active shooter drills to schools and even kindergarten to me up on our washington. and moscow over ninety two million accounts have been hacked at a genealogy platform my heritage was who services include that of d.n.a. tests the breach has raised concerns about security it's something the company prides itself.

a state visit where he's already met with the president. and the two leaders issued a joint statement on regional security and cooperation their meeting comes as washington pressure on both countries branding them as adverse series. all the way to beijing are joining us here i join you we are watching the live comments from. well the iran nuclear deal syria that of the north korean crisis what can you tell us though from beijing. wide wide array of key issues covered in this state visit putin's first state was in fact since winning the election last year and his fifth meeting with president xi jinping just this year as well largely a whole ray of corporation rumors and contracts signed between the russian and chinese energy ministers development ministers and commercial ministers interestingly and mentioned that the end that this level of cooperation is

unprecedented with the russian head of the space agency it all goes in signing corporation agreements on space and lunar exploration as well some quite interesting figures there that russian and chinese trade volume has increased by around thirty percent at the start of this year perhaps as a result of russian economic difficulties with that you use they have drawn closer to china as a result they hope that that trade value will reached record levels by the end of this year of one hundred billion dollars that will be an unprecedented level of trade there as well also cooperation on energy supplies aside from the usual rise in oil and gas supplies from russia to china there will be cooperation on building nuclear reactor parts as well in china as well quite rightly you mention the international issues covered as well the iran and north korea with putin stating that it was in both country's interests to follow a road map to peace for the crisis on the north korean peninsula no doubt over the

next three days when putin goes to the next location for the shanghai cooperation organization meeting that will be a key theme there as well in the meantime though he's joined the premier watching a hockey game after that he will head to his next destination where we will go as will bring you the latest updates from their heart arteries i don't know hawkins live in beijing thank you. the french president's bid to tackle fake news on the national level has been so. by m.p.'s in parliament france spoke to several lawmakers who warned that the government back and build takes the country in a dangerous direction. the problem is the enforcement of this law will put us in the position where the state decides what is truth and what is not i'm extremely concerned because this law is actually gays to freedom of speech. are we going to ban and when russia today and sputnik if you want to ban what comes from the

outside looking like fake news or what is coming from channels belonging to foreign governments you're not out of the woods yet it will be necessary to watch the b.b.c. morning and evening you better watch al-jazeera every day and maybe some others will start to monitor france twenty four france twenty four may broadcast information that would be in the interests of the french. well the fake news law aims at tackling quote manipulation of information that allows parties to complain about various stories deemed to be false or implausible and that also gives judges the power to ban publications now another aspect of the lore is monitoring foreign broadcasters such as this channel in fact our reporters have sometimes met with resistance when trying to cover official events in from. russia today and sputnik have not behaved as media outlets and journalists but as organs of influence and false propaganda that. this is.

only six or six about what works for young moment so you should say political gridlock if you look at this it will circulate them with. this issue with. this election. we spoke to. a professor of media studies he believes that banning certain news outlets only makes them more appealing. this point is aimed at specifically russian media because at the time when the law was imagine everybody thought that the russian with responsible for would happen in the united states since then there was lots of investigation very very few evidence concerning the russian could backfire because basically if you sense for something you're going to point everybody's attention to it and there is no way you can censor efficiently the internet so everybody will be looking for this century news and because it's

censured many many people in france who believe that the truth even though it's probably not there's no foreign media in the country available to the french government i mean what foreign media or news which is not really widespread in france let's be honest here. to internet providers that home for those are the two major internet providers and in france for those of you don't know you have t.v. with your internet provider i don't have r.t. news on my t.v. so i don't have access to news other than having access using the internet online on the web so it's not going to change much honestly there's nothing to be afraid of. nato's and you will military drills along the russian border called saber strike got off to a bit of a bumpy start for armored vehicles crashed into each other a little way and injuring thirteen troops peter oliver now takes

a closer look at the blocks a show of force right on russia's doorstep. around eighteen thousand troops from nineteen different countries taking part in nato strike eighteen military maneuvers. those at the very top of the alliance say that despite all those troops and all of the military hardware heading in the general direction of russia this operation is not designed as a provocation to moscow nato has what we call the dual track approach the rest of. which is about that we need stronger turns a strong defense combine that with political dialogue because we're not aiming at

isolating russia. russia so a neighbor russia said to stay but that's not the way russia sees it these maneuvers and the announcement by warsaw at the end of last month that poland wants to see a permanent u.s. base on its soil being described by kremlin spokes person as a source of potential instability in europe when we see the gradually expansion of nato military structures towards our borders this of course in no way create security and stability on the continent just last week angola merkel endorsed plans for a european defense force sometimes called a you army that's as well as germany remaining committed to nato she went on to say that the two percent of g.d.p. aim for nato members to finance the alliance wasn't just some fetish but left wing opposition here in germany say that the chancellor is current tack is taking the

country down a militarized route that they're not happy with there's a reality of the situation is that now we have too many maneuvers in the last four years we've had four times more maneuvers than the russian side of course those maneuvers do not help in establishing trust this is a form of escalation we can see that close to the russian border nato's demonstrating massive weapon systems with increased personnel which is creating an end secure atmosphere as the russians respond to that in their own way and we can see the situation escalating we are to militarized the german me. materials budget is close to forty billion euros and that makes it the ninth largest army in the world in terms of spendings the german army is already strong enough maybe even too strong in relation to the threat level we have always despite those concerns it's full steam ahead for save historic maneuvers which critics claim a little more than faber rattling peter all of a r.t.

berlin it is art international thanks for sharing some of your friday with us here based in moscow more of your worldwide headlines though at the top of the hour with my colleague father. but there is. 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 same in. the sun's coming in and heating their house and being stored in massive walls. sagebrush

is the natural environment here but as we're containing the sewage and using the plant stuff to process the sewage recreate our own little way system here. the transatlantic relationship is had many ups and downs since its inception after the second world war it is said this relationship is whether these moments of tensions and difference is due to american leadership enter donald trump can the transatlantic relationship survive the current occupant in the white house as it stands now the united states north korea's summit is gone and slated to happen next week mr trump has softened his tone on the north korean leader and kim jong un has removed several of his top hardline military advisors what's it all mean and one

can the world expect when these two mecurio leaders meet face to face i'm going to go one on one with the former director of national intelligence john negroponte. his take on this edition of politics. volunteer getting on larry king after several fits and starts the historic summit between the united states and north korea appears to be back on slated to begin next week in singapore after months of heavy rhetoric from both sides american president donald trump has toned down his criticisms and threats directed that can junk on and the north korean leader in turn has removed a couple of his hardline advisors who intelligence officials believe would have fought against any concessions about the future of the hermit nation's nuclear weapons program what can we expect from the meeting in singapore what will be

considered success for mr truong let's talk about that with john negroponte a great american formerly served as the u.s. deputy secretary of state was the first ever director of national. by george w. bush he also served as u.s. ambassador to iraq the u.n. the philippines mexico and honduras the embassador joins me from washington the system that's it or what's your assessment of the administration's handling of this whole korean situation so far well mercurial is right i mean it's been kind of up and down but it seems to be in a good place right now larry and looks like the meeting is going to go forward i think the president's right to try and manage expectations you can't solve everything overnight but you could have a meeting that gives us a sense of direction where these talks are going to go.
