and now on to other world news and the biggest story of the past week the leaders of the u.s. and north korea hailed at their historic summit as a success donald trump and kim jong un agreed to establish a new relationship between their countries can yang pledged to end its nuclear weapons program in exchange for security care and t's although no timeline was given plus washington promised to end its joint military drills with south korea. we have developed a very special bond. north korea best not make any more threats to the united states they will be met with fire and fury and have mad men out there shooting rockets all over the place you will have no choice but to totally destroy north korea rocket man is

a sick puppy. a frightened dog barks louder i will surely indefinitely tame the mentally deranged us doted with fire. this is street is proven over and over again and visitors can indeed become friends both very honored to sign the document thank you. so the today we had a new story meeting and decided to leave the past behind so we're very proud of what took place today and it worked out for both of us far better than anybody even predicted and it's an honor to be with you.

most world powers welcome the talks china set history was made at the summit south korea hailed it as a new way forward and the e.u. said that the meeting showed that the removing of nuclear weapons from the korean peninsula is achievable however japan said pressure needs to be kept on the north until concrete steps towards disarmament are seen. on the singapore summit site trump promised to guarantee the north security gang might have reason to remain wary as mark gust explains what's not to like a new nuclear disarmament deal potentially one less country with nukes where rule better off would have us and we have this truly historic moment on film you can. really get it.

so why does kim jong jr seems to suspicious could be anything poison assassins or trump just waiting to backstab him the united states will withdraw from the iran nuclear deal come to think of it america's nuclear deal to seem to last exactly as long as the incumbent president take the rainy and deal brought obama his partner has worked on it for years so much work so much effort just for trump to tear it all up don't forget obama negotiated the arendelle one of the worst disasters the dumbest deals ever negotiated except don't feel sorry for obama just yet

george bush his predecessor also struck a nuclear disarmament deal with gadhafi the two leaders discussed this agreement should help to bring a painful chapter in the history between our two countries closer to closure. it worked gadhafi gave up his nukes and what does a bomber do well he goes and bombs gadhafi is army alternately allowing the rebels to gruesomely mud him we came we saw that he died. it's almost like something out of game of thrones and we aren't even done bush screwed over bill clinton stop and roll back north korea's potentially deadly nuclear program we'll continue to implement the agreement we have reached with that nation get smart it's tough clinton had worked for years to make a deal with kim jong un's father to prevent then north korea from making a nuclear weapon and bush tore it up as seems to be tradition

north korea's regime arming with missiles and weapons of mass destruction. while starving in. states like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil trump he's one for tradition in fact he has a habit of tearing up documents memos people as when he's done with them he had a bunch of guys at the white house whose job it was to piece back together the people as he shouldn't have torn up literally had to spend hours per day. piecing together the puzzle taping and here we are generations of presidents generations of the trail double crossing and deception and it seems that hasn't been lost on kim. a nine year old british

girl has been placed in rehab over an addiction to online gaming her parents say she was playing for ten hours a day without taking any breaks i i. i i. i the game in question is the online multiplayer survival game for tonight which is taking the world by storm one hundred players are dropped onto a virtual island but only one can make it off it's incredibly popular with over forty million downloads since it was launched last july but the parents of the nine year old are calling for its ban. we had no idea when we let her play the game of the said dick to nature or the impact it will have on her mental health this is a serious issue which is destroying a little girl's life and someone needs to step in to ban it before it becomes an

epidemic the developers behind fortnight have yet to comment on the incident it's not the first case of gaming addiction the world health organization has already classified the condition as a mental disorder and that many are addicted to video games we put the issue up for debate with psychology expert gina loudon and former hacker john stuff son he's fourteen and. he plays for him and i see him played a lot the great thing about is i see him interacting with kids all over the world there are lots of ways to communicate with people around the world other than video games and our children are losing a little bit of a sight as to what's real and and what's maybe virtual i think video games a pall of all culture now that the story that broke recently of annoying your old was how to have because of being informed i would not blame the parents i don't blame the children because puter games all bought i just don't see the use of them i don't see how they're productive there is such

a tendency to spend so much time on the computer at least that studies show that the more time they spend in front of a computer or on their phones the more likely they are to have depression and other mental disorders experiences studies by the university of california for example in twenty fifteen where computer games are actually being found tarnishing increased memory especially in three d. games there are many ways to increase memory certainly pen to paper a pencil to paper all sorts of memory games that you can play with a book think games also can teach that you know it's warm watching a movie that can be good to be a study is all about being sensible you know if a kid's on it for many many hours and there's a problem if your child rides a bus. go for time i was going to reprogram so it's just a more to ration i think it's just some school use of the torn interacting socially though is really important thing that children are losing you know they start to

feel like their friends live in their computer when indeed those aren't real people those aren't real friends that are in their lives especially with children in their in their young formative years for their brains are still developing with the increased risks of mental problems because of it i see no reason to you know make video games part of that when they're just all together not necessary. a suicide bomber has killed eighteen people and injured forty five more in the afghan city of joel about sunday's bombing was the second to hit the city in two days and came during a holiday ceasefire between the taliban and the afghan government the bomb went off while a crowd of people were leaving the local governor's compound no group has claimed responsibility but suspicions have fallen on the terrorist group islamic state which was not included in the cease fire. facebook seems to be running out of options and its long battle with fake news the

company has gone from human fact checkers to an automated system but now it's back to hiring real people donald quarter explains why. in the never ending crusade against fake news facebook has come full circle it's now hiring so-called news credibility specialists to presumably look through and determine the fake from the truth was the individuals with a passion for journalism who believe in facebook's mission of making the world more connected as a member of the team you'll be toast with developing a deep expert c.s. in facebook's news credibility program after media outlets picked up on facebook's new position the social media giant took down that ad re uploading it with a few tweaks and a new title news publisher specialist yeah that raises less questions but wait a second a person deciding what info you should get on social media haven't we seen that before this is just a system that they put in place that allows people to inflate news sports news into

the tranny topics and and also suppress news that's the one in twenty sixteen facebook fired employees apparently after pressure over liberal bias in their trending feed every once in a while a red state to a conservative news source would have a story but we would have to go and find the same story from a more neutral outlet. then they put an algorithm in charge but that didn't go as planned either with the technology accused of being ineffective and biased within days fake news started trending and they even recently shut down the feature altogether from research we found that over time people found the product to be less and less useful perhaps in deciding what's credible and what's not it makes no difference whether an algorithm or a person does it especially if zuckerberg wants his brainchild to be more than a one sided platform i am i am very committed to making sure that facebook is a platform for all ideas that is

a very important founding principle of what we do well then problem solved no need for news credibility specialists after all donald quarter r.t. . i was stories based on unidentified sources getting bigger headlines in the mainstream media that all important job of fact checking is getting even more difficult but it still seems you can say what you like when you use those unnamed sources. the latest headlines from a same anonymous source this network. can't wash pool according to someone and they say in d.c. host i know someone who spoke to donald trump recently about life in the white house and donald trump's biggest complaint was that he's not allowed to watch porn in the white house has got him into a possible how a sandels deeper into the force keeping trump's urges down state actors broke into the d.n.c. undermined hillary clinton to help donald trump when. lives in

when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. hello and welcome to cross talk we're all things considered i'm peter lavelle the trumpet juggernaut continues on all fronts if he remaking the western world or merely isolating the us also is north korea coming out of the cold and much much more on this edition of crossfire.

across talking unstable world i'm joined by my guest mark he's an international affairs and security analyst we also have dmitri bob h. he's a political analyst with sputnik international and in plymouth we cross to patrick and he is a journalist writer and founder of the news website twenty first century wired dot com all right gentlemen rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want i always appreciate patrick let me go to you first in plymouth so much to chew on here reflect upon my introduction them. trying to recast the western world or maybe the whole world and its entirety or is this really just isolating the united states or a combination of all of i would have just said go ahead patrick in plymouth. you know this is this is the big challenge to determine firstly what is us foreign policy you know i think there's there's been a tendency there's a tendency by academics and by some commentators to try to look for breaking trends to try to generalize everything into sort of larger themes like is this a realist

a revival of a realist foreign policy or is this a continuation or a different version of a liberal globalization based foreign policy i think it's really difficult because if you look at history the only consistency with a lot of u.s. foreign policy is its inconsistency so you look at you see your hypocrisy at every turn no matter how many administrations you go back to but one thing that is consistent is a kind of post world war two grand strategy and sort of the united states as it's come out of the cold war period then entered a kind of period where full spectrum dominance was its main priority and i think to some degree that is still where a lot of washington's thinking is directed pentagon led full spectrum dominance as thomas barnett sort of you know laid out during the bush administration but in terms of donald trump i think the united states is at a very interesting crossroads because the first time where it's not expanding in one hundred twenty years internationally it's actually having to reconsolidate its

positions not just at home but abroad as well and i think dollar trump is the ideal chapter eleven practitioner maybe for this point you know u.s. history chapter eleven that's really great to have mark here i mean also when you everybody is looking for these kind of short phrases to describe i came across one no friends no enemies that would least work in the case of dealing with the i guess we can use it correct and disastrous g. seven meeting in canada and no enemies dealing with north korea at least at the time for the time being as some kind of partner illegitimate partner no friends no enemies yeah. i don't think there is a coherent trump foreign policy and i don't think that surprises us because it's quite clear that trump doesn't have complete control of the u.s. foreign policy congress has a multiple times attempted to usurp that right pushing him passing legislation forcing him to put new sanctions on russia now they're putting forward

a bill trying to for bid the president the commander in chief from withdrawing troops from south korea without receiving the approval of the secretary of defense that's that fouls that we also have a members of congress petitioning other pentagon to so jet fighters the. thirty five's to turkey. and they're also threatening against india but the one thing that congress doesn't seem to want to reclaim is their actual constitution given power their very their did they really clearly or they're very choosey they really cherry pick. well i agree with peter the big big question is are we seeing the continuation of the same so-called liberal or would truly be real world order be in be able to obviously seen something that was well i think that trump is actually less dangerous than their you know the people who were building their so-called

world order during the last twenty five years because if you compare the war to an apartment block you know what these people want is to demolish it completely build a new one russia and china as the biggest tenants right now voice in their objections their dolls the usual response is just don't worry you will be better off we'll give you new apartments right and wrong place just very you know open the garage and the walls around himself do you know you will say realistic absolutely this is not i think i did not go with the original but when he is just simply you know expanding the. what patrick let me go back to you and climate at length because i think what's really interesting here is that the united states still wants to lead ok it still wants to be dominant but it's not doing it with its allies because it sees the its allies is being a dead weight ok i mean they don't pay their own way they get preferential trade

deals so the this is what makes trump a bit different he still wants to be win and be number one he doesn't really care he doesn't want to carry the load for the entire western world anymore because he doesn't see it as being cost effective again he's a real estate agent patrick and climate sure that this is the transactional nature of this ministration that you see this reflected through to the white house you see it was especially through nikki haley whether she's taking her wrecking ball towards multilateral institutions like the united nations and other sort of international institutions and don't trump is sort of taking the wrecking ball maybe towards nato you could say and in some ways the european union but i think you've got two different sides of foreign oil so you're need to separate you're up and what's going in that hemisphere and all the legacy post were to legacy there with asia and don't trump is much more comfortable in asia and he's doing exactly the opposite of what the previous administration did which was lead from behind

this is a president now that doesn't want to be upstaged by his secretary of state he's actually taking the lead he's interfacing directly with some of the most powerful leaders in that region and i think he's more comfortable in that environment that's where the money is this is where the future is asia is forward looking and certainly on the cost of the global economic surge in that part of the world so this is definitely much more of a comfort zone for this president but in europe it's much more how the amount of patrick little issue that you get me now i mentioned the g. seven i mean and this is somewhat kind of my mantra my hobby horse here is that trump is not in tune with the postmodernist order of things that postmodern. mine think ok what mindset and that's that's the g seven ok particularly european he doesn't see eye to eye with mccrone with trudeau with people like that because it he just has a very different understanding of everyday politics he's not a theoretician ok he doesn't have a theory he's a he's a practitioner let me go to mark here on this yeah he's not a liberal i mean not

a liberal that there's some but up and patrick thank you my brain is now imprinted with an image of nikki haley is miley cyrus driving a wrecking ball into the united nations and this is so here's the problem even though it's it's a divide between not only the u.s. deep state and the trumpet ministration but between trump and people within his own administration like mad dog madison and so on they still want to pursue american hegemony and there's no way america has given up on the pursuit of global military financial and other means of a germany around the world trump does see that as wasteful i've seen a characterization that he loathes the liberal international order that has been created since the establishment of bretton woods through the uni polar moment and so on because he does see it as not as damaging the us as transferring wealth

and the us overplaying the role of defense when it doesn't need to around the world he sees a stance of all u.s. allies like the e.u. as rivals as economic rivals because he's a businessman and that's the way that he views the world on business terms and he sees the ins and outs at an imbalance particularly with europe and he faults europe as having worse trade policies for the u.s. than china jeffrey goldberg in the atlantic this week did it in article he's famous for giving this softball interview he was the one i. apologise where obama told him that his former. policy was simply don't do stupid stuff stuff yes shall we say it was. well a jumper goldberg got three different characterizations supposedly from three different anonymous officials within the trump administration of how to define the trump foreign policy the first one was this no friends no enemies which is

a very realistic interpretation. unfortunately trump if he wanted to pursue that i don't think he's had the bill it need to pursue that as much as he would like what one of the second it once i think will feed a lot of conspiracy theories that may not be conspiracy theories anymore that permanent destabilisation creates american advantage while that that sums up american foreign policy and military policy and what they've done in the middle east their support of. terrorists you know in libya and syria and so on and the last one sums it up as far as the liberals are concerned we're america be i think of breaking bad and everybody i think you know i mean you know. also you could say in a kind of as a extra layer from what we've heard from patrick and from mark is that trump has did term.
