1:02 am
three cabinet ministers including the u.k. foreign secretary brics it should be about opportunity and hope we appear to be heading for a semi brics it we are truly headed for the status of colony but i want to recognize the work of the former secretary of state for exit in the european union so how can anyone have strace in the prime minister get a good good deal with twenty seven european union governments when she can't even broker a deal within the peronne cabinet. to reason why is no stranger to political disasters following has nothing action she failed to get a majority think he's had problems like at the grandfather soft last year and the fact that negotiations of falling apart either poll about teresa mayes general approval rating hit the forty eight percent people really don't like may and twenty three percent of people do not like her and only
1:03 am
a mere three percent of people like the prime minister and it must be off if the danger hit really is so great is this the right time for resignations and internal squabbling finishes at the london as boris johnson was leaving his official residence in central london he was bombarded with questions from reporters. the your view was this is the fourth. most the jokes and you think the president the death threats do. you think you could do a better job than the private us. the president over you you counseled on altos ca's commenting on the situation saying that the resignations didn't mean an end to the problems created by brooks said they were also expressing hope that something might now change or the whole time all over brooks it has drawn media attention away from a second alleged case of no poisoning in the u.k. a political commentator david vons says that won't last though given london's obsession with the so-called russia threat. this to resume
1:04 am
a government seems to have a bit of a obsession a bird trying to blame such incidents such as the previous one for example on russia well i think that's the kind of a distraction and i think at this point in time theresa may would rather talk about it anything anything other than her leadership so we can be surprised that this nova. incident does get hyped up and talked up by the british government on a day in which is quite conceivable by tomorrow morning this prime minister could be gone possibly discussing it nobody is it's almost a welcome distraction from for the beleaguered mayor ministration. after years under the control of islamic state terrorists the syrian city of rock was liberated back in twenty seventeen they were paid a heavy price for liberation even now streets on strewn with bodies but i guess dia looks at how rocket has been devastated. raca was

1:07 am
picks shovels hammers. over the course of the last several hours they have dug up eighty bodies. of the main problems you can find them both in the buildings on the streets. is the lack of equipment such a big city as record needs demanding the city council give us as much equipment as . we can expend work it's no secret that things are not enough assistance not enough help no one spared any expense when it came to carpet bombing rock but they're counted now rescuers lack equipment financing safety gear and the international community has gone silent all but rights groups which have been bearing the alarm bells for near enough a year now one of the main obstacles to actually these graves was the presence of landmine contamination and it seems that the process for the mining mining of these
1:08 am
areas is very very slow there needs to be more support not just financially but also in terms of technical assistance from friends that expertise it appears that there is progress unfortunately and the progress appears to be slow and the resources that are necessary for it to be completed do not seem to be in place neither the human resources nor the financial resources it's a sorry situation so many dead so many missing and no one willing to bear any responsibility it's as america's said you'll never know how many died in iraq 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 there is lying. a swedish dentist has been fired and now risks losing his home after exposing some of his child to refugee patients as actually. being adults the court find the man over

1:18 am
good to have you with us today an award winning journalist who helped the whistleblower edward snowden to expose the secrets of the n.s.a. has found himself under attack for visiting russia for a cyber security conference. and as he tells well glenn greenwald who is the famous journalist who exposed electronic surveillance in the united states using the documents of edward snowden revealed by edward snowden the whistleblower he is getting a lot of criticism at this point now he went to russia he attended a conference on cyber security at that conference he spoke on a panel related to the issue of fake news and then from there he went and did a t.v. interview with this network there's an obsession in the united states with viewing russia not just as an adversary but as an actual anime it's permeated both political parties there's actually talk
1:19 am
a lot now about how what they regard as the interference in the twenty six thousand election is similar to pearl harbor from there we saw a whole lot of media voices in the usa jump on glenn greenwald's simply for the fact that he gave this interview one commentator from m s n b c responded this way glenn greenwald shows his true colors as an agent of trump in moscow now we know why he hopes and i wouldn't affect congress who wiki leaks attack on democracy in shills for folks news he's deep in the kremlin pockets now a tweet from a media outlet associated with voice of america accuse glenn greenwald of quote voicing support for the government of russia in his interview now wiki leaks responded pointing out that at no point did mr greenwald voiced support for the russian government that was not. anything he said in his interview at no point in the interview did he make statements supporting the russian government so this tweet from a u.s. government media outlet voice of america was simply not correct now glenn greenwald
1:20 am
is not the first individual to have been targeted this way and basically accused of all kinds of things simply for appearing on this network we saw that green party presidential candidate jill stein faced similar allegations simply because she did interviews on r.t. and that she went to russia and met lattimer putin and we've also seen in the recent in the aftermath of the passing away of edge scholtz we've seen similar statements and strange things made in allegations made in the obituaries in the reporting around his death so glenn greenwald has responded to those jumping on him for doing the interview saying that this is simply mccarthyism and it reminds people of the period in the united states in which guilt by association was very common and people were being accused of being disloyal and treasonous simply for meeting with somebody or giving an interview or shaking hands with someone glenn greenwald is quick to jump on this as an example of kind of the hysterical atmosphere created around russia in the united states the subject of the interview
1:21 am
he gave to r.t. but there's this sense that russia is now one and then me on par with or the japanese during world war two russia is often talked about this way in the sense that any kind of connection with or interaction with russia is viewed as inherently suspicious or even worse and it's extremely dangerous and extremely toxic investigative journalist a mix blumenthal told us the whole case is based on the us post sept of russia as an enemy. this is outright slander that is being committed by an employee of m s n b c which has pushed this frame of anything connected to russia being a form of treason if you look at malcolm nance's own record of wild statements including that the united states as a constitutional republic is about to be destroyed by the latter mere putin it's
1:22 am
pretty clear that he's to intelligence what harvey weinstein is to feminism this is all about geopolitics and people like glenn greenwald. have been have become collateral damage in the revival of mccarthyism. the german chancellor angela merkel has signaled her country is ready to negotiate on the new import tariffs with the united states however she did not rule out a hardline response so if the talks are not productive but the surface until we are ready to talk radio address we must try to reach an agreement otherwise we'll have to take measures as we did in connection with steel in alameda on terrorists. of. meeting that provoked anger from german politicians some erekat reports the u.s. ambassador to germany apparently held a top
1:23 am
a secret meeting with the who's who of the german auto industry to discuss tariffs and this was met with harsh criticism from the head of the german social democratic party saying that it wasn't in the ambassador's authority to do so if the u.s. government wants to talk about tariffs with us then this issue must be discussed between the u.s. secretary of commerce and the german minister for economic affairs and energy peter altemeyer we're not some kind of banana republic this wasn't the first time the ambassador has managed to stir up controversy he frustrated germans the day here arrived in germany back in may with just one tweet in which he advised german businesses to stop doing business in iran for some context to this was right after trump announced that the us would you wouldn't laterally withdraw from the iran deal and then just a month after that he offended germans again when he said that he wanted to empower the right wing all across europe with the german politicians claiming that he had
1:24 am
breached protocol and some even called for him to be expelled from the country so a lot of members of my party if i'm pretty explicit that we find these statements are highly inappropriate for an ambassador. or canobie but advised to reconsider his role in this mission if the federal government takes the country's democratic sobering too seriously you should not invite a ground zero for a chat but rather expel him immediately and bust as the representatives of this state of political movements u.s. ambassador grenell however does not behave like a diplomat but more like a far right colonial officer we won't tolerate such behavior so this latest scandal has the ambassador stirring up controversy just days before trump is scheduled to visit europe i just about wraps up the program for this hour here on r.t. international there plenty more of your top stories to come your way. in about twenty five.
