9:30 pm
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 two years since donald trump was elected but guess what still worries the. u.s. presidential poll allegations of meddling and collusion there were sitting 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 addressed directly with president putin
9:31 pm
the issue of russian interference in our election and i had to repeat what i've said several times including in a personal contacts the russian state never has and never will interfere in 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 your fair answer twenty sixteen every u.s. intelligence agency has concluded that russia did it who do you believe i have great 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
9:32 pm
the twelve people i think that's an incredible of. an intelligence of the month and i do know how. she concludes you can only be made fun of cool 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 seemed to be even more for straighted 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 on monday i was working among the group of russian journalists who cover whatever a lot of who does and my colleague from or to america on the bill was among the so-called us presidential poll of journalists so. what did it look like from your side ilya captured it quite perfectly and making the point that you can see it just
9:33 pm
from the way the reporters during the press conference handled question time the only two questions to come from the american press gaggle had to do with collusion the fact the meeting went on and the fact that it went on long made the washington press corps that i was traveling with quite distraught if you can imagine waiting around for the press conference i could hear many reporters from the american side making jokes about what could possibly be taking so long with these two world leaders of two very powerful countries of course. we can imagine there'd be many things for them discussed but only crude jokes coming from the american side i heard one colleague on a major network describe the press conference that was held between trump and putin as a wedding that was on live television i don't know which side is the bride and which side of it is the groom in. there's a bit of sort of feels like we're at
9:34 pm
a wedding you have been watching perhaps one of the most disgraceful performances by an american president why is president trump putting himself in his along or of all the high stakes in the area and letting flat in their pool lead as you can imagine also in washington politicians are already coming back with very heavy handed responses to today's meeting on trump's press conference before. with high crimes and misdemeanors it was nothing short of trust and not only were trumped. he's wholly the pockets of republican petra where are you for the president to side with putin over his own intelligence officials and blame the united states for russia's attack on our democracy is a complete disgrace this is without any sort of anything as much as a joint statement from the two presidents pledging concrete steps that either will
9:35 pm
take on issues concerning syria or otherwise none of that came from the event today the two leaders simply said they met and things went well and they hope that conversation will continue in the future following a stream of attacks after the press conference trying to go to twitter defending his comments has said again that he has great confidence in the u.s. intelligence which has repeatedly stated that russia did metal in the u.s. election but trump says that he can't focus on the past as the two nuclear powers must get alone as we heard a mania in the u.s. media already sim few risks with the results of the summit executive vice president of the eurasia center earlier rasmussen explained why he believes that there are so angry. we know the media for the most part of the against that doesn't really matter what he does it doesn't matter. what agreements are made they're still going to be against them and it's unfortunate and we can thank god that they are not
9:36 pm
responsible for diplomacy even though they try to influence the foreign policy significantly but. i think it just it's the continuing antitrust saga that's going on and and really without evidence without just. it's it's kind of engrained in their in their d.n.a. perhaps d.n.a. hopefully that we can get past just minutes before the news conference started and journalist was dragged from the venue and it is odd that he was carrying a sign we shred nuclear weapons ban treaty. i.
9:37 pm
know where is the end of the press conference putin presented trump with that twenty eighteen world ball and commented on the u.s.s. cole whole thing the twenty twenty six year morning meant the analysts were of course looking for any signs from their leaders behavior and something that handshake speak volumes their first came when they not in hell thinking and the second happen and around them the media before the start of their talks we asked buddy x. period language expert halward feldman for his stake. 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 this 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
9:38 pm
almost strutting both of them off they sit down they very very uncomfortable they look like a doubles and couple and then they reach out for that handshake you know what do you see about that handshake is it is a distant handshake it is not one with the whole bodies are involved you know to stop one hand on top of the other trump is very very visual with the war with the pacing of his hand and he goes in very very evenly and that's how the handshake is 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 is his mouth there was a grimace to it his jaw was clear and he wasn't comfortable at all and definitely looked like to be comfortable. again let's look at what's what's bringing them
9:39 pm
helsinki is a much more comfortable place for putin that you support from putin has just come from a enormously successful world cup event so he is feeling a little bit more relaxed it is on his to even though it's a very very important discussion and meeting for him and just hours after put an end trump a finish their meeting new accusations appeared of russia interfering in american affairs a russian citizen was charged by the department of justice for being a russian agent twenty nine year old might be a buton now was arrested on sunday she's accused of developing relations with those who have influence in american politics and to advance russia's interests her attorney made a statement denying she's an agent he also said that the woman offered to be interviewed by the special counsel's office but they showed no interest in speaking to her political analyst a lionel believes the media is reacting too quickly and branding bush as spy.
9:40 pm
what you're going to hear regarding this this russian citizen that she is called a russian agent what is missed completely is that agent should be referred to as a lobbyist and agent in law in american law means a representative up when american media say agents they think secret agent. espionage agent you know something nefarious something involving behind the scenes something illegal something that is other than an agent this particular person was charged with basically being a lobbyist and asons without having registered with the department of justice could more indictments happen absolutely will the media american media clarify what that means absolutely not the british labor party targeted facebook ads to trick and so
9:41 pm
on leader about his general election campaign on this and other news after a short break. but holds it's just you should. put themselves on a lot think that it's a little joke. so if you want to trust. me so much.
9:42 pm
that's right. that's what. you believe. there's always a. good. to the u.k. now where it's been revealed that british labor party members responsible for facebook ads in last year's general election made leader jeremy corbyn and his closest aides see different ads from the general public or picks up the story. this is all been revealed in a new birth 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
9:43 pm
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 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 few saw such messages except 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 work well a very twenty first century sort of sabotage and clearly quite dysfunctional
9:44 pm
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 a few raised eyebrows in response to these revelations it's bizarre that anyone would undermine plans to 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 corbett as
9:45 pm
left wing politics that were put up on corbin's own video and website channels and on the channels of his campaign group momentum far outperformed anything that was posted up by the parliamentary labor party on its own website and video channel so according to the labor party they have the last laugh anyway. political analyst from hughes says that this is the leader's display of the visions within the party itself but there's an ongoing kind of faith within believe reported it's actually a fate for the heart on the soul of the liberal party the liberal party was built on a socialist democratic platform that's platform was moved to the center on the deed to the rate. people are the very man who led the united kingdom.
