president strong pound putin looked to a second meeting this year after hailing this week's summit in helsinki as success all this pushing the mainstream media into overdrive. the most disgraceful performances by an american president it's a disaster not possible that the president of the united states is invited so let's pollute again. so the president has apparently doubled down on. the french president faces allegations of a cover up after a top security aide is arrested for allegedly beating up a protester. and dozens of people are reportedly lynched in india after fake news floods and messaging up.

a very good morning it's nine am here in moscow and you're watching the weekly here on r.t. international all the latest headlines and a roundup at the stories this shapes the week. just as the dust had started to settle on the trump putin summit in the finnish capital hell's thinking the white house announced on thursday it's inviting the russian president to washington based or so in an interview donald trump has since confirmed his intention to meet putin again. second meeting potentially with me. is that in the works is it planned has it been you know i would say it's in the works look we had a tremendous discussion on many things but fact is we got along very well i think i have a good relationship with you russia's ambassador to the u.s. says that russia is open to appear to visit to washington although he also mentions

that not the quantity but the quality of the meetings not to the most the house think he talks were billed as historic and we're following the event for us while i'm standing right outside the modestly looking presidential palace in the capital of finland where everything happened first two hours of a head to head talks between donald trump and a lot of our putin with oliva translators allowed inside the room that was then followed by a lunch where the leaders were joined by some of the most senior officials from the two countries then came the first ever joint press conference by donald trump and vladimir putin and 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 our relationship has never been worse. than it is now however that changed as of about four hours ago but guess what still worries the entire u.s. presidential press pool allegations of meddling and collusion there were sitting right here and almost all the questions. 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 do you hold russia at all accountable for anything in particular 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 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 if there's ever going to be an intelligence of some myself and i do know how. 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 frustrated then before the leaders met donald trump and vladimir putin though when they were heading towards the doors i could only see smiles on their faces on monday i was working among the group of russian journalists who cover whatever who does and my colleague from 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 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. acidly be taking so long now 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 the groom manners are but in sort of feels like we're in a wedding this is without any sort of anything as much as a joint statement from the two presidents pledging concrete steps that either will 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 the conversation will continue in the future. analysts were of course looking for any tells how signs from the leaders behavior during the summit and some think the handshake speaks volumes we asked analyst and forty language experts how it felt and what we can read into them. 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 almost struck to both of them are they sit down they very very uncomfortable they look like a divorce and couple and then they reach out for their attention now 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 start one hand on top of the trump is very very visual with a with of placing of his hand and he goes in very very evenly and that's how the hand shake is is. executed well the mainstream media have gone through the roof over the plans for a second putin summit some even called it news from how creating a similar level of hysteria before the first summit.

i don't know which side is the bride and which side of it is the groom anderson but it sort of feels like we're at 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 a vulnerable high stakes an area and letting flatware putin lead. a man that even president trump now says interfered in u.s. democracy invited to the white house and now the president has apparently doubled down basically by getting him to washington so let's collude again. it is top spy in the united states he doesn't know how is that possible that the president of the united states is inviting putin for a second summit in a couple months in the fall over at the white house because the president he works for is donald trump. the media outrage was also visible on monk is the business well.

despite the criticism the american president initially said the helsinki summit was a very good start for everybody but just a day later the world saw a shift in how trump describes the event. president putin he just said it's not your action i will say this i don't see any reason why it would be. and should have been and i don't see any reason why it wouldn't be russia. sort of a double negative. it was very with us intelligence that. russia meddled in

your actions or that i would say that that is true but you haven't from whom specifically you told him personally responsible well i would because he's in charge of the time. anyway is russia still starting. right away and you know. i talked to the president he wasn't answering that question he was saying no he's not taking questions it looks like a schoolboy apologizing for something he shouldn't be apologizing for the intelligence community in america has been giving primarily bad intel like in two thousand and three with weapons of mass destruction has been turning its surveillance apparatus on the american people trump was right to call them into question we have seventeen redundant spy agencies that need to be slammed into a box we need to fire most of the people who work there and we didn't stop letting them create magine ery enemies that waste money and waste lives on nonsense approaches. after the helsinki summit wrapped up a u.s.

court ordered the arrest of maria a twenty nine year old russian woman she's accused of lobbying russian interests among us politicians russia's foreign minister has demanded buton is released and called for the accusations against her fabricated maria is also accused of not registering as a foreign agent and she is thought to act on behalf of the russian government she has pled not guilty to the charges a lawyer says offered to be interviewed by the special counsel's office but they showed no interest in speaking to her. investigators also claim that boots know was in contact with russian intelligence officials and that she offered sex in exchange for a job at a u.s. special interests organization the hype over the alleged russian spy in the u.s. was filled on twitter where one journalist appeared to reveal that had visited trump in the oval office but that was quickly dispelled.

let me just say that here in the united states among the media who despise the president they look today at what happened as trump absolutely being own as they say by vladimir putin barris. that it was horrible it was terrible colleague into question his own intelligence agencies it was a desaster this is what they are say what you might see as having occurred is common poll different than what they're saying now meanwhile they're forgetting that the most important aspect of today's visit was what happened outside of the view and the air of the cameras that's what's important that's what's critical

nobody is talking about that because frankly they don't know anything. but what they're saying is this is another example of of this connection between trump and bowden and what this is going to do is resonate to some kind of weird pavlovian connection some obey sense that they have to this idea that the russians they're at it again even they don't know what it is that they're out again. french president emanuel necron faced backlash this week after revelations a top security aide was caught on camera beating up a protester the incident took place at a mayday protest and was filmed by an activist. who. was.

shocked and very angry i would never have believed it wasn't a policeman and now anyone can wear a uniform interrogate me that want these tensions between police and citizens and it raises the question over the legitimacy of law enforcement is the most worrying thing as we know has been aware of this for two and a half months from the very start so we see intent to cover this up security aide alexandra but now a lot was arrested on friday with french prosecutors opening an investigation into the case but allows house was raided by police on saturday questions are now being raised over an official cover up. simply put the government is buying time to arrange a statement we've seen the state override the covering up the lies of ministers by what we do and i'm shocked just like the whole world the media poses a number of questions to the manner mccrone we need a commission inquiry what is

a private a lazy aide to doing among law enforcement officers this question must be posed to emanuel macron if we accept that anyone can pretend to be a police officer we no longer live under state truly law the thing is that if the rule of law has been respected from the beginning. mr been and i should have been fired because the fact that he has done. forbidden by the law of course and mr ation has. tell to the prosecutor that he has not to hurt anybody i think working as a policeman with police violence the thing is that it's very astonishing that. the president and the government i think a. minister of interior has decided in reality to give. more weak sanction to mr bin

a law that proves that he has been protected and it is in complete contradiction with the principle of the come to dates. the indian government is under pressure to take action if a mob of violence after a spate of lynchings inspired by fake allegations on the messaging app but details for you after a quick back. to the criticize us or the question asked and they want to know why we're not more critical of russia and the real question is how come we're. tooting russia's horn more because they are been genius during this crisis but that would be i think a little bit you know over the top to simply point out all the good things that they're constantly doing so we just try to take a more balanced middle of the road approach that's you know the fact is that they're making all these other economies look stupid by comparison. to

prepare the program i had to look at a lot of material listened to a lot of material and also read a lot of material that. was appalling. and not only that when you get these images into your head and of course the images that i was you know far more graphic than anything i could include in a few television. welcome back the russian defense ministry has unveiled a video of a new generation weapons in action some of the world's most powerful armaments on now operational in the russian military and gas you have takes

a closer look at the new arsenal. when putin announced this new arsenal it came out of nowhere seemed like side five overkill to some but you know we now have videos of each. kindle or dagger and russian is a hypersonic missile and it's fast really fast flies at three kilometers a second when deafening tries to shoot it down it dodges to maneuvering flying in an unpredictable trajectory world first by the way the u.s. plans to test its own analog next year. saddam out this is the over killed bought a new nuclear i.c.b.m. that carries get this twenty nuclear warheads the real a slow is its range which is practically unlimited where past nuclear missiles had

to use the shortest flight path and fly through ed defenses this thing can literally fly to the south pole and back up to hit that stargate from behind. if for whatever reason you don't feel like flying through and. there's adam god and it's designed to literally ram its way through enemy anti missile defenses with a speed first it's lifted into space then its engines turn on and it enters the atmosphere at knock twenty that's roughly seven kilometers a second. poseidon the greek god of this she may be gone but he's got a no less terrifying successor a nuclear powered paedo that travels so deep and so fast it's in theory undefeatable. snick

a new nuclear powered nuclear capable cruise missile it's literally powered by a nuclear reactor on board inside the misselling meaning it's got indefinite range so long as the reactor has fuel it can stay airborne fluids around and around until the opportunity to strike. combat lasers always been a cool science fiction gimmick but they never really got doing the science and technical requirements with two great until now it seems it is stripped named after a russian worry among the laser weapons system designed to deliver incredible amounts of energy in a small area so shoot down all melt down and incoming drew nor jethro shelled for example other than that not much known yet.

now one might ask isn't all that is just begging for an arms race is russia each in for a fight no says putin it's all about balance balance means peace the four things were even russia and the us had nuclear parity mutually assured destruction then after the u.s.s.r. collapsed they too began to expand began to field new weapons that could destroy russian nukes what putin unveiled is russia's a return to military equality status quo a return to balance. at least twenty five people have reportedly been lynched in india after fake news about kidnappers taking and abusing children was spread on a messaging app there were also false accusations of organ harvesting and killing

sacred cows there are now calls for the government to take urgent action against the rise in mobile violence. the horrendous acts of mobocracy cannot be permitted to inundate the law of the land the recurrent pattern of violence cannot be allowed to become the new normal in one of the latest cases indian police arrested more than two dozen men involved in the lynching of a man over fake rumors he was a child kidnapper since the start of may the fake news about child abductors has filled what sub chats boyko picks up the story. fake news a big time with a bad rep preferred by leaders politicians and the mainstream media labelled as a menace to democracy and sometimes just a way to dismiss a story which you don't agree with you are free to do big news in your facebook page or state who's on twitter too but in india the consequences of spreading fake

a child abduction ring video like this one may have set off the crowd to punish the alleged kidnappers is gone viral in india but poaching to show a child abduction it was originally made by a charity promoting child safety in pakistan back in twenty sixteen at the end of the original video the little boys returned the problem with fake news in india has got so bad that the indian government has urged whatsapp and its owners facebook to do something about it we're stressing an education campaign in india on how to spot fake news and rumors. so the company launched a series of newspaper ads in several languages the headline says beware of whether a story is hard to believe and watch out for spelling mistakes it's not going to be easy though what's that messages are encrypted that means identifying the source of each room is near impossible india is also what saps biggest market the company

counts over two hundred million users that combine that with a sense of panic a very stubbornly high rate of violent crime and you have all the conditions for fake news to turn into real deaths these days how are almost even before we give them enough but it leads to believing the lies. we are reporting the region but knowing what was wanted. for something so this is going to be much bigger than the damage is much higher most countries that have this problem be said to raise additional information you know more of. this decent resolution and create chaos and also the sense of mission that is so forces definitely is one of the. news phenomenon that is going on because it's a complex you know when you go to the society you are looking at you have to look
