4:00 pm
in this business model before college was born. i'm extremely bored higher education the new global economic war. i day of top level diplomacy comes to a successful end as lot of bad putin and donald trump wrap up and his stark post summits hailing great progress our relationship. has never been worse. than it is now however that changed. as of about four hours ago. by both leaders agreeing on a number of katy international issues the us media all over the theory is that the result. the only person calls for reporters the enemy of the american people as an american citizen i just personally think that incredibly the first moment in our time in our history and also this hour the front squat gets
4:01 pm
a hero's welcome in paris software for to try and serve a croatia in defeat thought well to cut the final. a very warm welcome you're watching audience a national with me the caring. is our top story this hour the meeting of the year as some are already calling the first trump putin summit is now over and both leaders have said they made positive steps real progress. in the finnish capital. think before us.
4:02 pm
i looked into the faces of donald trump who was standing right here by the way with a bigger microphone and vladimir putin here with a smaller microphone and i saw two men who were genuinely enjoying talking together but today first of all their message to the journalists was that they want this kind of relationship to spread beyond their personal time somehow they want to put washington moscow relations back on track and it's quite clear to everyone that the by the true relationship is a complicated stage there is no solid reasoning for the impediments the current tense atmosphere the cold war ended some time ago our relationship has never been worse. than it is now however that changed as of about four hours ago at this presidential palace the word we heard quite a few times was syria and on the one hand that this is the area that was looking
4:03 pm
rather promising ahead of these talks but on the other hand it wasn't promising at all given the interests of israel and iran had a unique opportunity to ask the heads of russia and the u.s. whether they could share the details for some specific arrangements for russia and the u.s. to work in syria together if any of those were made but the leaders didn't spill the beans on any of that however i got the impression that steps together could be also perhaps surprisingly donald trump even said that the armies of russia and the u.s. could be better at cooperating then the white house and the kremlin soon it will be years since donald trump was elected but guess what still worries the. u.s. presidential press paul allen. nations of meddling and collusion there were sitting
4:04 pm
right here and almost all the questions from this part of the room were about that and it was rather fascinating to see how the two leaders almost teamed up to dodge these kind of questions during today's meeting i address directly with president putin the issue of russian interference in our election and i have to repeat what i've said several times including in our personal contacts the russian state never has and never will interfere in internal american affairs do you hold russia at all accountable for anything in particular yes i do i hold both countries responsible i didn't know the president. there was nobody to collude with where did you get the idea that prison trump trusts me or i trust him he defends u.s. interests and i defend russia's interests president putin denied having anything to do with the election interference or twenty sixteen every u.s. intelligence agency has concluded that russia did who do you believe i have great
4:05 pm
confidence in my intelligence people but i will tell you that president putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today he offered to have the people working on the case come and work with their investigators with respect to the twelve people i think that's an incredible offer. or was an intelligence officer myself and i do know how compiled a conclusion can only be made by a court and not by intelligence services however none of this seemed to convince american journalists and while i was looking at them when they were leaving the room they seem to be even more frustrated then before the leaders met donald trump and vladimir putin though when they were heading towards the doors i can only see smiles on their faces. well earlier we spoke to former u.s.
4:06 pm
congressman ron paul he says the u.s. media work to make russia look like an enemy. believing here in this country that trump has advice it's not necessarily the best i think he has good instincts i think he was very sincere today i think it was all very positive but you also mentioned so far in this program about the american media and that is a big problem because for some reason they're almost unanimously endorsing the idea that we have to have an enemy and at this point especially for the last twenty years they've been working very hard to make russia the enemy and i think this is this is wrong and it's not just democrats alone that do this it's the democrats and along with some disgruntled republicans who just they just don't like trump but no i was very pleased with what went on today and it's a step in the right direction they can rehash everything whether it i think the biggest thing that if it ever had
4:07 pm
a serious discussion i guess it would come out on how much we've been involved when we should be involved for instance in ukraine and how that occurred but if they don't have want to concentrate on those problem they want to look forward i think that is great but i would like to i think the next best a systemic ever would be for us to reassess this and say that trumps going in the right direction and talk i'm into getting rid of the sanctions on russia and just minutes before the nice conference actually starts a protest it was jack's from the venue the sign he was carrying rags nuclear weapons ban treaty. stop drama in helsinki today well let's discuss the day's events further with our
4:08 pm
guest now daniel for archie director of grassroots political consulting l.l.c. good to have you on the program mr ferrars she thanks for coming on today president putin said that he offered to develop relations with the u.s. and trump do you think the presidents have finally found the common ground that they need. i think this was a good and natural step the irony after the reporting that i just listened to is that this was a absolute nightmare for neo cons and even if there was no press release or statement or joint interview together after this summit it was a very predictable outcome from across the spectrum of the mainstream media and many politicians who as former congressman ron paul said have got to have russia be the enemy and the scapegoat in order to justify so much of what we do in our defense buildup our involvement in ukraine in syria russian sanctions all in order
4:09 pm
to counter russia in a geo political aspiration on or oil and gas reserves in the or that kid that's or pure intention but today was a very good first step and i think showed the maturity and the decorum between the two leaders i thought it was fantastic indeed this seems to be such a disconnect we thought the press conference we thought how positive they were they great body language they agreed on a number of very important issues and then the response in the u.s. media basic fiore a with the results because i have a quick listen to what's being said in the past. i don't know which side is the bride and which side of the groom manners are but it is we're sort of feels like run away you have been watching perhaps one of the most disgraceful performances by an american president today's press conference in helsinki was one of the most disgraceful performances by an american president in memory why is president trump
4:10 pm
putting himself in his a vulnerable high stakes an area at and letting blatter near putin lead and i'm a big question is how all the public through the general public who also watch the press conferences and also listen to this media and read this media are they going to be convinced. well this is been many years in the making or russia phobia from the mainstream media and from many politicians who are at the behest of the defense industry and support you know our involvement in syria in ukraine russian sanctions and just russia phobia in general and a lot of it the language is always aimed at calling russia the soviet union and that there is no industry in russia beyond oil and gas even though you have just shown the world from not just the olympics but one of the most successful world cups in history all of the different innovations in technology and medical industry
4:11 pm
all the rest so it's a very provocative question because the those that believe all these years and build up of russia phobia would add to that is extended itself above and beyond since the elections are going to continue on the same path from the rhetoric they hear from politicians and the meat mainstream media as well but those with an open mind to are unfortunately in the minority in this country may take a different look at what just happened today and also the substance what happens a few weeks time from now. are there more indictments or there are more you know continue to hostile rhetoric coming what happens with the probe what happens on trade is there any dialogue that will be fortuitous on syria on ukraine or anything else so i think in a few weeks time we'll see whether this continues to build up to denigrate and
4:12 pm
courage russia phobia in the country and how the public reacts or will it subside a little bit and we'll see some substance on who would know what happens when the two presidents can have the effectively work together as president but indeed payton said today you know one meeting went very well but this time many critical issues that they agree on but more many things. need to be held for things to be solved trump on the other hand as you know he sees the relationship developing into something quite extraordinary so the question is will this ever will this hysteria ever lets up meeting by meeting are we going to see the same kind of response. i think you will and till you see some substantive changes you know if we could get a deal and a on syria to where both sides can cooperate more overtly in a multilateral capacity or in ukraine or in any of the other hotspots together or if we could get some sanctions relief and just start changing the rhetoric and
4:13 pm
dialogue i mean the jury is out it remains to be seen but if there are any tangible results from more meetings and dialogue it's going to be harder and harder for the entrenched members of congress on to the mainstream media to continue to propagate russia phobia however there's always the possibility that we do not make a lot of headway on substance and these are simply press statements and if that is the scenario then the situation will remain the same if not get worse. of course jeering this conference they talk make of russian meddling in the u.s. elections came up once again denied that russia played any hand and swaying the elections once again also said the paper leaves him do you think this could and faked the indictments of those russians the hacking link fences and so. i
4:14 pm
think this was a very wise suggestion of president putin to have formalities instead of the as we call shot across the bow where preemptive strike that was given from the probe before this meeting a formal request should have been made to the russian federation and as the president putin pointed out there are or means put in place by which that could take place with law enforcement cooperation between the two countries so i thought that was very provocative but also very insightful to bring that up in the conference and say we will entertain that request and have a legal process. by which to actually look at this now and the meddling thing is what it is the russian collusion is a garbage story that we've been dealing with for a year and a half. of course everyone instead of saying populism or a lousy candidate like hillary clinton or the disruption that led to brags that so many situations in the world the mainstream media's conclusion is it has to be
4:15 pm
russia of course but instead of ignore it and ignoring blatantly the problems internally in their own countries that led to the events of referendums being passed and a presidency that they still can't get over because they predicted it would never happen and that of the election of donald trump. and this story is garbage and we're not surprised to hear it again over and over and over and it will continue after this press conference to be even more pervasive in the mainstream media and in the halls of congress for the next few weeks to come unfortunately. so who watch a direct grassroots political consulting l.l.c. thank you for joining us. i think when at the end of the news conference putin presented trumpet with a twenty eighteen well you can use the new ball adding that is on his side now and they're going to be us co-hosting live twenty twenty six tornadoes you know you did
4:16 pm
your dishes which is cool. analysts were of course looking for any telltale signs from the leaders behavior and something handshakes big volumes the first one came when they met in helsinki in the second half and in front of the media before the start of talks we spoke to analyst and body language expert howard feldman and to ask him what whether we can read into it. trump is coming from a very very highly critical domestic america so he's he's he's very aware that his whole country is looking at him and trying to interpret what is really going on between these two leaders and it's with that that he enters the room and he faces faces what seems to be an opponent so you start off and he's very he's almost strutting both of them off they sit down they build their young comfortable they look like a doubles and couple and then they reach out for their attention now what do you
4:17 pm
say about that handshake is it is a distant handshake it is not one with the whole bodies are involved in it it's not one hand on top of the other trump is very very visual with a war with of placing of his hand and he goes in very very evenly and that's how the handshake is is. executed donald trump said to his normal donald trump position which is the his legs slightly apart he kind of slumps quite comfortably although he didn't look comfortable if you looked at his his mouth it was a grimace to it he's built his jaw was clear and he wasn't comfortable at all putin definitely looked like a bull comfortable person in the loop again let's look at what what. well simply is a much more comfortable place for putin religious or for trump goodness just come from a enormously successful world cup event so he is feeling a little bit more relaxed it is on his turf even though it's
4:18 pm
a very very important discussion in meeting for him. to the u.k. now it's been revealed that british labor party members responsible for facebook adverts in last year's general election made leader jeremy corbyn and his closest aides see different ads from the general public art is partly boyko picks up the story. this is all been revealed in a new book about the effect of the media on politics and the allegation is that in the run up to the general election back in twenty seventeen just over a year ago senior labor party staff members hostile to jeremy corbyn used targeted facebook ads in order to trick the labor leader into thinking that his campaigns were being rolled out nationwide online in actual fact the campaigns that jeremy corbyn wanted to push nationally but which senior officials didn't like they were being targeted just jeremy corbyn and his closest aides take
4:19 pm
a listen to how the labor party leader jeremy corbyn was heard winked by his own party when they were told to pay for nationwide they're regarded as month gap such as one on the water registration they made sure that if you saw such messages accept a tiny slice of left wing activists if it was there for them they thought it must be there for everyone it wasn't that's how targeted it's going to war well a very twenty first century sort of sabotage and clearly quite dysfunctional relationships there between a party leader and the officials meant to be executing his campaign decisions but jeremy corbin is no stranger to hostility from within his own party he's loved by plenty of labor voters but not so much by the parliamentary party here in the u.k. this contains over a centrist that are unhappy with his left wing policies and perhaps he may be unfazed by all of this he survived several coups against him labor party or had
4:20 pm
a few raised eyebrows in response to these revelations it's bizarre that anyone would undermine plans to a good time as voter registration during a general election despite fighting with one point behind our backs by some on corporates of senior staff we achieved a lot just increase in labor's vote since nine hundred forty five. well the statement we got from the labor party also said that the so-called uncooperative stars were proven wrong anyway because the videos that emphasized jeremy called it his left wing politics that were put up all in corbett his own video and website channels and on the channels of his campaign group momentum far outperformed anything that was put up by the parliamentary labor party on its own website and video channel so according to the labor party all they have the last laugh anyway. political analyst from hughes says the revelation signal part of an ongoing battle
4:21 pm
within the labor party. but there's an ongoing kind of fight with and deliberate party it's actually a fight for the heart on the soul of the labor party the labor party was built on a socialist democratic platform and was moved to the center on a piece to the right soon by cleveland or the very man he led the united kingdom into the illegal wars in iraq and when you consider what's happened there and in libya and several other countries throughout the middle east. there's no socialism in a blur right wing of the liberal party so i'm i don't think for one second that it's been a move which they have to or some high esteem misadventure misadventure i think it's been a planned operation from the start the sabotage germy corben and if you remember that the labor party membership in may two thousand and fifteen was around two hundred thirty thousand and today it stands at five hundred fifty two thousand on the little leadership of germany corben the people of britain who joined the labor
4:22 pm
party a membership rank and file want to see a socialist alternative to the new liberal policies or put the player at some theresa may. the french capital has welcomed its heroes their national team crowned world cup winners on sunday evening in moscow hundreds of thousands of supporters were out in the sun fleece a company in the squad as they parade it to the presidential residence where they were greeted by emmanuel mcrae. they were was. was nice and i was thinking it was a shame because i was kind of serious i was thinking it was i think she was saying was it

4:27 pm
best team was losing and was losing because of. in my opinion that mistake of the concept of the not seeing is not the penalty. because there can be different opinions or wrong i'm saying that the concept of the view is a bald important mistakes of the referee and this was not one of these cases so really really disappointed you that in the second of putting what we were expecting and then france scored. in the fourth and just. a mistake of don't even call a mistake i call extra confidence because of the four one in the game over. croatia still playing until the end of the great pride they were fantastic and they deserve all of the credit for what they did. in football the realities.

4:30 pm
come back as soon as possible while the world cup here in russia has been recognized as a huge success but not just for the football that's being played although the football was pretty incredible but for the organization of the event there have been worries going into it to some foreign press did not materialize this is what sports officials pundits have been saying. the fantastic well i think mark thanks to be. excellent was excellent the i think that for russia we already know. the life that china is in and the boy's shoulder everything is so nice in the sense of proper and secure to say that people are friendly. you might want this world cup he believes we've seen almost all the strong teams make and we have to win their matches while both he considered to be weak it's been almost on the same level what i need to do.
