take to the white house and. the russian president in. the american media. and the thousands of residents of true syria it's after they were moved to government controlled territory in a prison. radio showing the foreign minister saying that there is no such thing as a peaceful multicultural society it triggers a wave of criticism that he claims he only made those comments in order to start a debate. his q. . cultural society. the twenty first century. don't function at least in western europe multicultural has made.

this country. in the morning on friday this is the international the whole news team to put together your top headlines. so just as the dust had started to suck along the summit in helsinki the white house dropped a bombshell inviting the russian president over to washington later this year. reports on the latest from the white house. in helsinki president of the united states agreed to ongoing working level dialogue between the two security council staffs president trump asked john bolton to invite president putin to washington in the fall and those discussions over ready on the way we have the announcement from sarah huckabee sanders the white house press secretary this comes in the aftermath

of quite a bit of media hysteria in response to donald trump's a meeting in helsinki with the russian president if you look at time magazine or the new yorker there's been quite a bit of hysteria in u.s. media now in recent comments the russian president has actually warned the world about the hysteria in the us media and about you know forces that would push false narratives about the meeting in helsinki to advance their own political gain. there are forces in the us ready to easily sacrifice russia u.s. relations for their political ambitions a satirical novelist once wrote about these sorts of people as beautiful and pathetic but these people who are the pitiful nor pathetic on the contrary they're pretty powerful if they can fool. to millions of the citizens and they can face in the aftermath of the helsinki meeting which took place on monday we've seen quite

a bit of shifts and changes in how the us president has described that meeting his explanation and assessment of the events seems to go back and forth they have president putin he just said it's not russian i will say this i don't see any reason why it would be and should have been i don't see any reason why it wouldn't be russia. sort of a double negative it would be with us intelligence that. russia meddled in the election twenty sixteen i would say that that is true but you haven't condemned putin specifically do you hold him personally responsible well i would because he's in charge of the country getting along with president putin getting along with russia is a positive not a negative if that doesn't work out i'll be the worst enemy he's ever had the worst he's ever had so this new announcement that trump is indeed planning to invite the president of russia to the united states to the white house for another meeting it

fits in with a recent tweet from trump he said he was looking forward to a second meeting with the russian president but many people are wondering what will happen next as trump seems to have gone back and forth and as trump faces widespread media hysteria and criticism for the fact that he met with the russian head of state well the whole news took both the media and the intelligence community by surprise us director of national intelligence down coats was giving an interview with a news about putin being invited to the us came in may we have some breaking news the white house has announced on twitter that matter is coming to the white house in the fall. we can i. ok. that's going to be special. earlier we talked to political analyst charles alltel who believes the upcoming midterm elections could provide an opportunity for improving russia u.s.

relations. i think it's a good move. we're certainly going to go through a rocky road. from now through the midterm elections and depending on how those midterm elections go will determine i think how easy it is for donald trump in his administration to do what i believe is the right thing and try to find a basis for the united states and russia finally to have a lasting and productive mutually beneficial relationship something we really have never had for longer than a short number of years during world war two in that brief period between one thousand nine hundred two and the early days. all residents in two rebel held town is not a fool and carefree in northwestern syria in the province of. i've been successfully evacuated from the area under a deal between the syrian government and militants all residents were moved to areas controlled by damascus in exchange for imprisoned rebel fighters buses

transported almost seven thousand people out of the cities it's a deal that ended years of sufferings during the blockade as what i guess explains . for three long terrible years the people of four then. live besieged two pro-government villages in the middle of. kingdom in syria and these limits the warlords and the terrorists will add full blood. there had been previous evacuation attempts last years five thousand civilians were being bused out in the deal with rebels a suicide bomber blew up nearby over one hundred died.

well. you know about that. i met some of the evacuees last year they were clearly traumatized scarred here men and women and yes even children fought for three years they held out. to. think i was pretty for my family we've been like all the speech was very. possible to describe it is impossible to express it. but on. this latest deal was made by the syrian government and had.

previously used. in syria islam ists let seven thousand civilians leave the two towns and the syrian government releases hundreds of militants from prisons the rebels have lost the two villages they use this bugging chips for years they have also lost swathes of territory and homes and southern syria. in the span of me a months. after

the evacuation the rebels drove tanks into foo and trashing national flags and defacing asaad sports and damascus now has a serious problem. filled to the brim with islamists and rebels from all over the country and with nowhere left to run the stage is set for the last bloody showdown of the syrian war. the future of a makeshift migrant camp in a park in the french city of normed is in question some four to five hundred people have pitched up with sanitary conditions now so doctors are warning of an epidemic of local prefecture ordered the park to be evacuated but the city's mayor refused to comply saying she would offer the migrants basic aid instead but the matter has since gone to court which has sided with the prefecture but it's still unclear

whether migrants will be resettled began forming a couple of months ago when the first tents were erected so shallow stupid went to visit the place. in nohant in a public garden in the heart of the city hundreds of refugees standing in line for their next meal one of them we will be calling him has been in the city for two months he's agreed to speak to us as long as we hide his identity. we are lost hopeless there are problems with finding somewhere to live food we don't sleep well it's very terse it's painful very painful because there is a risk of epidemics here not at all happy because we're in danger here and sanitation is a big issue it's estimated that around five hundred people live in this camp yet there is only one toilet and just a single water tap they've been here for weeks after being expelled from an

abandoned building nearby and a problem that was once being masked is now in full view and locals are getting increasingly worried and you get well it's very negative for months just like it's negative for any other city where the sample regardless of whether it's paris or any other city it's a very bad sign for the locals and tourists. i think we need to evacuate them from the no move them outside of the seamy that's not good for now we try to have a clean city but today the hygiene conditions are not being respected and. they don't have access to sanitation there's only one water tap this park is not adapted migrants despite calls to clear the camp the local mayor had refused saying the reception of migrants should be dignified and organized but so far it's anything but the campus being deemed an eyesore and a major sanitation issues by many locals and it's also a big worry for humanitarian groups. there is

a problem with town hall that doesn't want to take responsibility for the emergency and it's a humanitarian emergency here. they are not economic migrants they are political migrants ninety five percent home from war zones. now the authorities have taken the decision to expel migrants from this camp and they pack up their few belongings they're not sure where they're going to head to next but it will be somewhere and they're likely to stay together as a group so the problem rather than being solved is just being moved despite promises by the local authority to solve this situation with emergency accommodation so far it just looks like they're losing control charlotte to ski r.t. not. walk away used by people abandoning the u.s. democratic party has been picked up by the media who suggested the trend is

actually the work of russian bots trying to sow discord we spoke to the creator of the walk away movement to find out more. be ready you think that the walk away campaign is comprised of russian bots i would suggest that they check out our facebook page which is where the campaign really takes place that's how the leaked campaign go there on facebook and what you'll find is video testimonials of actual human beings who are looking into their cameras and telling their stories and when i say frenzy deal i was instantly hope to his message the democrats don't care about us not one bit they walked away from us a long time ago and it's time for us to do the same and chose to walk oh they're telling their stories about why they're walking away to the last and there's people in the raid were also telling their stories about reclaiming their voice and the nairs of what it means to be

a conservative which has been hijacked by the left they're telling you what it means to be conservative and what their values are and welcoming people who are blocking we last so i mean this is a pretty easily disputed look think these are real people making real video testimonials and you can see them with your own eye the movement whose motto is quote not just a hash tag has gained a strong following online with more than sixty thousand subscribers on facebook on new cases of former democrats abounding the party's ideals are emerging every day and while the media try to pin walkaway to russian bots one organization which specializes in detecting russian accounts says otherwise the hamilton project which tracks twitter account supposedly linked to russian interference claims a walk away has nothing to do with hostile foreign activity. most of the third party reporting on the dashboard continues to appear with some variation of the headline russian books are pushing x.

this is inherently inaccurate they're not all in russia we don't even think they're all commanded in russia at all we think some of them are legitimately passionate people that are just really into promoting russia has brought in struck again founder of the walkaway movement on why democrats are trying to denigrate the movement for i think it's an incredibly desperate attempt by the left wing politicians and the democrats to explain away the fact that people are leaving their party and they're no longer happy with what's going on on the left. you know it's like they tried every every trick in the book to sort of dehumanizing people first it was you know calling people to get calling people racist calling people nazis you know anything that they can do to dehumanize people and that didn't work so now they've actually doubled down and religion really started calling human beings robots all of this in a desperate attempt to cover up the fact that their party has no plan their party

has no appeal to people anymore because they really just become a party of rage anger hostility and now pouring on islands people don't want any more people leading the left these are not robots these are actual people who are fed up with the democratic party. the dutch foreign minister says there's no such thing as a peaceful multicultural society those comments not going down too well bring you the story in a much. most

people think just stand out in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest street in truth to stand losing business you just the right questions and the right answers. good to have you with us today there is not a single peaceful multicultural society in the world that's the claim of dutch

foreign minister stef block who is now facing a storm of criticism for that remark. for a. little. over the. summer refugee groups and politicians are like have expressed dismay of a bloc statements in which he also dismissed the former dutch colony as a failed state simply due to quote ethnic divisions blocking orderly offends people who look like me but a whole national history and identity this isn't worth your government official minister block is undermining efforts by this government to make joint agreements in europe on the proper reception of refugees apparently the minister is not aware of what is happening in syria now our leaders have succeeded over the years to make all ethnic groups peacefully let each other live blog has now apologized for his

remarks saying they were meant to spark a debate and not meant to offend we decided to put the issue up for debate with independent journalist look we have a and un coordinator mohammad sarkar. he says things which up and former unfortunately real is that dean multicultural societies that were promised us that the perfect twenty first century site is don't function in the west at least in western europe i think that those remarks are just based on. ignorance of how can societies can bring together a big example i can ensure we can witness is the work of the french team for example look at french team french team contains a multicultural society france beat another team from a small country in the balkans and all the players in this small team of the country of origin so there is no rule to be taken out of that to meet the

multiculturalists that doesn't function is what you have communities living next to each other and not mixing it is very easy for example for asians to. melton and become members of society but we have some some part of the population that refuse it to want to impose their culture in the public space like islam for example democracy can only be based on respect respect of the each other culture respect it comes also from form not to fear from other people culture from the other society we import misery we have a social security system which is based on the contribution of everyone and the problem is that the millions that come to europe never participate they never contributed and they come with families look at examples off the continent of africa if we have left africa alone would not have seen african migrated to to europe if we had not it would not have sucked the richness of africa there diamonds

the gold live the oil then those people who stayed in their own country that would be years and years no no if you have. been in your result when the laws of the world to try to invade other countries and critical of police countries and then they complain. my immigrant come back to europe because you could conquer this country and the imposed laws that you believe come back to with us if you when it's right in england does it that spring is here migrating they ask you for the black in the sixty's to come and work in england same for the indian this is not people are and how the choice is by force is not a choice minorities are welcome when they are minorities one it is a real inflation in millions they say no it doesn't stop living there for thirty years in europe before thirty five years i believe because the multicultural has made europe as rich this country is not by wiping someone else and it's not about. you know imposing someone else culture in another i didn't see that i would like to see or read integration more. british military personnel could be

prosecuted for alleged war crimes committed while assisting operations conducted by america a two year probe into drone use carried out by a cross party parliamentary group found that the u.k. may have been complicit in targeted killings in afghanistan iraq and syria as well as yemen somalia and pakistan countries where the u.k. isn't officially at war inquiry's report raises concerns about the legitimate use of combat drones are broad claiming that it could lead to a number of an acknowledged civilian casualties the report says that the u.k. is complicit in illegal strikes conducted by other states which were receiving british military and intelligence support the u.k. government's policy regarding drone use is branded quote opaque ambiguous and effectively unaccountable we spoke to a lot about a member of the parliamentary group behind this report he says that information

about drug drone use of broad has to be more transparent. we need to be more transparent and it has to be. very open and the information needs to be available this should be a parliamentary oversight and the government also needs to make sure that there is proper legislation to ensure transparency and also accountability as well as legality under international law and this also means that we make sure that there are no civilian casualties no extrajudicial killings and wherever possible those culprits that they want want to catch they should be caught and brought to justice rather than the easy use of drawings and killing them without us knowing exactly what the allegations are according to this report some drone strikes were conducted without parliament's approval with the defense ministry admitting to only one civilian death. we do everything we can to minimize the

risk to civilian life from u.k. strikes it is therefore deeply regrettable that a you can strike resulted in an unintentional civilian fatality the u.k. drone strikes within syria have killed one civilian that's the code of the official statistics that obviously anyone the knows about drone strikes knows that that figure is absolutely ludicrous no one that i know finds that credible at all the u.k. government claims that only one civilian has been killed in a drone strike is insane no one believes that because it's low risk it means they don't have to there's no impetus on reporting it so there's no coverage in the mainstream media and they certainly very little coverage from that from the likes of the b.b.c. here in the u.k. there are various so civilian groups in the u.k. that are trying to monitor drone strikes but it obviously is very very difficult but the problem is growing different and it is a worry twenty five minutes past the hour here in the russian capital thanks for

joining us on r.t. international plenty more stories to come your way in about twenty five minutes. u.s. president donald trump is repeatedly said he wants better relations with russia he did finally have his long sought summit with vladimir putin both presidents called it a success the american political class and corporate media describe the helsinki summit as a failure and try force. one else seemed wrong. but all wrong just don't call. me. yet to see palin just going to come out again. and in detroit because betrayal.

when so many find themselves worlds apart we just are the common ground. the president walks back on his walk that i thought on russian meddling what's going on we'll take a look at that on this edition of politic. politicking on larry king by now you know the most of the story president donald trump's public comments on whether he believes russia and russia along meddled in the twenty sixteen elections and are poised to again interfere with your two elections contradicts the findings from his own intelligence agency and his director of national intelligence despite several attempts to walk back some of the president's statements the logic question remains who's direct with the intelligence

assessments what's being done to ensure the integrity of future elections start there with our panel joe pollak senior editor at large an in-house counsel of breitbart news he's also the co-author of how trump won the inside story of the revolution and james fools contributing editor for american affairs and best selling author his last book was the author of being free how alexis de tocqueville can save us from ourselves they both joined us in studio what was the story. of what is one day is different from the next what do you make of this i think they are interfering i don't think it made much of a difference in twenty sixteen or do you know because there's no explanation as to how it would have made a difference i mean the most impactful thing they did was to show that the democratic party was trying to rig their own primary against bernie sanders i don't

know if that in effect in the general election if it did it was minimal as frank luntz said did they have hillary clinton scheduling tell him not to campaign in wisconsin i mean the race was won on the ground in the states in the upper midwest had very little to do with anything the russians said and so why did our intelligence communities keep saying they did. it doesn't mean they didn't i mean the fact that it had no impact or very little impact doesn't mean they weren't trying to have some kind of impact and i think they've had a big impact in terms of our dialogue now simply by dividing the country by creating what i consider a kind of hysteria on the left especially and well in that in that sense they've been wildly successful but not in turning the election one where the overall republicans who disagree with mr trump. a lot of the republicans are just frightened of their own shadows and i think one of the reasons he clarified his remarks if you look at the clarification it's not actually anything substantive i think he just said the word clarification so that they would calm down but i think

a lot of the republicans who were lighting themselves on fire over the test over this are the same republicans who panicked when the access hollywood video came out they don't know what to do when democrats attack them on issues that i think nothing to do with trump he's a fighter in a way that they're just not used to fighting back and so i think he pacify them a little bit and that's all this was about james what do you make of what was well you know i think in a certain sense the biggest influence russia had on the campaign was was enabling itself to become an issue in the campaign you go back to the obama race against romney russia was off the table tried to bring russia into the conversation and make the election at least in part referendum on russian policy obama didn't want that hillary comes in she doesn't want to be arguing about russia on the campaign trail and suddenly that was the situation you saw in the debates and it wormed its way into the into the political conversation and i think what you saw then and what you're continuing to see now is a sense among

a pretty powerful public constituency that the reality of the world has sort of come unglued from the foreign policy agenda of the established elite and russia is a big part of of what to do about that and so i think you know i think russia successfully introduced itself as an issue in the campaign when hillary clinton who was at that point. meeting everyone basically thought was going to win didn't want to be an issue why do you think the white house is having such a hard time dealing with this day and. well you know there are a couple of reasons one is that this is just a very nettlesome issue you know i mean. russia is hard to trust. the influence of russia spies on its government on its public policy and on its on its on its corporate doings is pronounced and it's it's one thing to make the argument that we ought to come to some sort of like understanding with the russians as the global order is reshuffled to catch up with what's going on and realize.
