i think. g. seven summit sees a major rift open between the u.s. and the rest of the pack with donald trump retracting this support for the joint statement meeting of the interests of re amid growing tensions with washington rules based international order. be by its main market go to the us maybe the american president doesn't mind being isolated today but we also don't mind being six if need be. and stories that shape the week the pentagon admits the civilian death toll in syria may never be known after being accused of a possible war crimes that. the world cup gets underway in moscow just four days to go before biggest event kicks off here in russia.

here in moscow very good evening my name is neil harvey this is r.t. . the us president donald trump has touched down in singapore for the historic summit between the u.s. and north korea. to singapore airport in the last few hours will meet the north korean leader kim jong un on tuesday the meeting will be the first ever face to face contact between a u.s. president and a leader of north korea mr kim is also in singapore gearing up for the highly anticipated summit derives several hours earlier on china play. the north korean leader's accommodation in singapore has been kept top secret i think but reporters did spot guards in six jogging around a motorcade near the st regis hotel surely can only mean one thing people putting

two and two together and getting that that's where kim is probably bedding down for the summit. trump arrived in singapore after leaving the g. seven summit in canada early the two day meeting was marked by huge rifts between the u.s. and other members of tensions that flared over critical international issues. i would rather see russia in the g. eight as opposed to the i would say that the g eight is a more meaningful group than the g seven absolutely. here we all agreed that a return of russia to the g seven format summits can happen until substantial progress has been made in connection with the problems with ukraine canada's position is absolutely clear that there are no grounds whatsoever for bringing russia with its current behavior at the g seven if there is to be any conversations

about russia's future in relation to this particular group they have to change their ways they have to change the route that they're taking and the sort of activity that involved it. and shortly after leaving that meeting trump via twitter of course abandoned his endorsement of the summit's joint communiqué it cues the canadian prime minister of making quote false statements over u.s. tariffs creating another sticking point between the states justin trudeau described the reasoning behind the terraces frankly insulting a response trump went on to describe as being dishonest and weak with some of those walls riddled with divisions from the very beginning. maybe the american president

doesn't mind being isolated today but we also don't mind being six if need be the rules based international oh the. be just get the go to the u.s. 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 stewing to save them to the group who challenges of the world and instead of that we would be divided between not just certain it would be a g six one 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 by 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 as i'm protecting our workers i'm 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 cloud us it is clear that especially with the exit of the us from the climbing 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. 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 nation's broken away from those conditions blame the other countries now that's what you want to hear right before a g. seven summit do you personally lucian trip between your being leaders and so your president is bear that. no ideas because also the subjects we are talking about the movie but are we have. not only covered was the turn of those we have covered on almost every subject and

sings the first between the buses and washington so you'll be in union and the united states who become bigger and bigger. this week marked a year since the official launch of the operation to liberate the syrian city of red car from islamic state terrorists they had made it the capital of their self-proclaimed caliphate and to coincide with the anniversary mr international released a new report on the situation in the devastated city it accused the u.s. led coalition of quote relentless air in artillery strikes and even said that they may have committed war crimes according to the coalition itself the real number of civilians killed in the battle for iraq will never be known. as far as how do we know how many civilians were killed i'm just being honest no one will ever know anyone who claims they all know is lying.

by getting to the bottom of what was really happening in iraq as the americans and allies were freeing it who will be bothered to do that or it will take ages the prose of war behind these walls may have thought but scrutiny was inevitable coalition claims that it's precision and campaigns allowed it to bomb islamic state house of rocca well causing very few civilian casualties do not stand up to scrutiny based on information from amnesty international field investigation and public reporting coalition air and artillery strikes killed hundreds of civilians and injured many more open amnesty's report and you'll find words like this proportionate and discriminate bombing the use of white phosphorus claims which could turn into a reputational disaster if proven things that amount to war crimes the u.s.

led coalition mission to free rocka went on for more than four months from june sixth to act over twelfth last year and the pentagon proudly told the world they'd fired thirty five thousand artillery rounds while they were at it they fired more rounds and rockets syria than any other marine artillery battalion or any marine or army battalion since the vietnam war yet we kept hearing from those whose orders matter how cautious they war there is been no military in the world's history that is paid more attention to the limited value. of ministers from the battlefield and the coalition military were not perfect guys we can make a mistake. and in this kind of work ready to happen we are the good guys and munitions people on a battlefield know the difference you can't help wondering how many innocent locals general mattis has actually met i'm sure you can find many of those who are

genuinely grateful to the coalition for kicking myself out but just compare his words to some of the witness accounts our team heard while in iraq there was this definition in washington we were directly targeted by the coalition after the recognizance craft filmed us it was a low altitude it was very clear there were no terrorists in the area but there were kids playing in the streets and we were collecting water and i knew that all that i knew that if the aircraft bomb using force for us it targets everyone it is not hidden i still the coalition is boman brenda mely if you're sitting at home a bomb may come down on you there are houses that collapsed on their residence and they could not get out all this happened because of the aircraft it will plane comes in strikes for instance a five story building i said would be on the second floor while civilians on the third and fourth floors how comes the plane still strikes then more civilians died the terrorists and we weren't alone in the hearing those were in calls from that

devastated syrian city humanitarian groups on the high alert had to many more hors to share with us and the rest of the world there are worries about how this operation will affect civilians we're concerned about the safety and protection of more than four hundred thousand people in iraq as these operations commence to strike we've investigated it was. not a year in coalition authority so you actually believe that the actual number really important because i wonder if you thought any of that led to a change of tactics by the coalition or at least an apology i have to tell you they shielded themselves from scrutiny with. monthly casualty reports we've been largely focusing on the fate of rock of civilians in our coverage antagonistic internationals now weighed in with some serious work it could be high time we hear something new from the us pros of war we've asked several humanitarian

organizations to comment on this the international committee for the red cross said it repeatedly expressed concern for the safety of rakhal civilians during the city's liberation the u.n. aid to the children said it had no information on the matter at least expert just to a land is told is that war could have been done to save civilian lives i don't doubt that the united states has used efforts great efforts not to kill people but in the end they were not free they were in a hurry the un asked them multiple times to give a break so that civilians could get out they didn't want to negotiate with us they said we're going to kill them on the battlefield they didn't want them as prisoners in another guantanamo since the gulf war. nine hundred ninety the first gulf war the united states constantly insisted it didn't count the enemy it didn't know how many were killed and it wasn't going to try to find out later on there were some investigations but by and large that has been the protocols of the u.s.

which is not to count the enemy and to and to try to keep it secret really. the f.b.i. has seized the e-mails and phone records of a new york times reporter as it moves to plug ongoing leaks of classified information you she's come to a head into the trumpet ministration there's aunties nikki evan explains it dates back long before that. trump's white house has a serious problem it's leaking a shocking secret memo leaked to the new york times white house's most prolific leakers all the weeks we get out of the way else why this white house leaks and all the reasons this hit there's always so much fun in this white house is so leaky there is even leaks about why they're leaking and so in an effort to deal with the issue is to find it to move on from its fatigue to war of words with the media and show a bit of muscle i strongly prefer the press. or the press are

also where the fire is very. well charms verbal disputes with the press have become commonplace his latest step can be seen as a watershed moment that is crossing the line into spying on journalists now at the center of this is new york times reporter allie watkins whose phone and e-mail records were secretly seized amid a justice department investigation into this guy james a wolf a former high ranking ate at the senate intelligence committee who suspected of leaking classified information to reporters and he also happens to be the former boyfriend of what kids during their three year romance that what kids they excelled in her career even being shortlisted for a pulitzer her skills in gauging tipoffs from elusive unnamed sources were praised by her university breaking national story was the direct result of tips she received through unnamed sources with whom she's developed trusting relationships

she denies ever using her former lover as a source however now some of her old tweets are coming back to haunt her i wanted to be zoe barnes until episode four sleeping with your source especially in the decks of congressman gary gray area ethically he could be which i'm ok with the boards of the washington herald morning a source close to the president exactly sure how many. actually i want to go over i'm sorry mr president but i will not get. into. well. so on a scale of one to ethical how does everyone feel about pulling a real zoe barnes for story ideas for media rights groups however what we're saying hey is trump's latest push to demonize journalists a move which represents a true declaration of war on the press we believe that the government seizure of.

data sets a dangerous precedent we fear it could be an opening salvo in an ongoing battle over reporters ability to produce think this but such intimidation tactics on reporters are actually nothing new investigations into journalists on their sources were heavily ramped up under trump's previous s.-a in fact under president obama the justice department prosecuted more leak cases than all previous administrations combined so perhaps it's time for a rethink on using this. journalist shine a light on many issues around the world keeping citizens informed prompting robust debate discuss discussion we certainly face that here and holding governments accountable we honor the many journalists and media professionals who have dedicated their lives to the profession we see all too often that journalists continue to take great risks to pursue this important work. famous coach and co-host shows in renewable be predicting the world cup results exclusively for rose

after the break. i think that donald trump is really confident about his capacities ability to persuade people and the power of personality and all this kind of things and i'm sure the kids i'm going will try to play this card will try to give donald trump something he can tweet so he can show to everyone look i'm the first one i'm the one who rolls the art of the deal i'm the first one can make a deal with this guy work every other american president before me failed i succeeded. the legacy call guys are the winners the legacy oil guys are the winners the legacy all central bankers are the winners innovation you dynamism the constitution the bill

of rights these are the losers in this america. welcome back just four days to go down till the fee for world cup kicks off in russia the fun festival now in full swing in moscow. he was down among the crowds. but there was very quiet here seven and a half years ago when i stood on the very same sport and reported that russia got the right to host the twenty eighteen world cup no one believed it back then but it's absolutely believe it will now as you can see the fantastic that's the place to go for every fan who doesn't have a ticket to a match that's where the games will be broadcasted on the huge screen above the stage you can see over there and from that stage the official fan past was

kickstarted by the world cup when a legendary frenchman mosse a deceived alongside him was an exotic as i call the top scorer of a national team must decide you actually walked on the stage like a boss carrying the world cup trophy in his hand and if you forgot the world cup trophy can only be handled by those who had ever won the cup of the most coveted prize in world football so after that opening ceremony i managed to catch up with must say desiree as have you as well know peter schmeichel the great dane is working with ozzy as part of our team and moss a musée strongs will be playing denmark in moscow so i asked him about that since we work in which michael who represents downmarket you are representing france. the match is happening in this city what do you expect of it do you think is going to be the hardest game for france in a group stage it truly truly is old in time been difficult you know to play the games and have done mock you know they have tough play is

a very decent clean and talented but i still think that from time individually it colicky be a better side i'm sure let's see let's see you know it's good bo anything can happen but i do believe that in from tyson weenies because they have not been at their level just a couple of days ago three for president jonny to continue said that russia was one hundred percent ready for the world cup and obviously fan fest is part of that beer music football what else would a fan want especially if you or she doesn't have a match ticket every eleven host city will have a found zone a fan fest on like that. we will be certainly all over that r.t. team covering the world cup over the next month. or thirty nations will be battling it out to lift the famous trophy you saw on the stage there the coveted cup is made of eighteen karat gold it's been past winter when a few years ahead of the event it went on a grand tour right across russia millions of people got the chance to see it even stopped off briefly at the r.t.

studio. the winning team will lift this exact trophy above their heads and this is the one that they keep only for a short while. for the ultimate possession they get a so-called the so-called winners trophy which it looks like exactly this one but only made of bronze and it's a gold plated bronze. indeed this is the one in on li made of eighteen karat solid gold. official fee for world cup trophy and only heads of state and people will come can touch this magnificent called the price. trophy traveled from kaliningrad to

vladivostok literally a massive geography we estimated that around forty million people lives in the nearest proximity to the cities where the traffic visited. and our coverage will be delivered by some of the game's biggest names including manchester united manager joe is a marine you know who's made his first predictions. says mr let's go through the group step by step whenever you're ready. i'm not ready because it's very difficult i don't want to be emotional but i have to be i will go to contradictions because i want my players to win but i also want my place to go on holiday so this is going to be tough but i would say to you to lie his way into

the wind or go. they have experienced their players they have the right mentality and i think russia has to finish second and. then the crucial match will be russia against egypt and this is going to be a reality for testing for russia to finish second in the group while. the two we in the group b. . and i will show relate to that i am totally portuguese because i want to finish second in the world maybe down the home team russia is going to play against their best in spain see a scene from this will draw a little finish first. the fight to finish second. and go for a surprise come along australia let's finish cycles and then in group b. a single fellow will finish first. this one is going to be hard but i go for an

african team. so we'll be brazil in the name of change to go on holiday so switzerland to finish second i'm sort in the money and what you need to hold. and in the group in germany has to in. mexico finish seconds. go. the belgian. three seconds. for the league will be. for the balance of the gold in the group. go fall and so. much expertise from gers i believe you don't miss it. now if you thought there was a little nonsense and you can do much better prove it test your football knowledge against the might of marine year by heading online to facebook or twitter simply
