are broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow recapping the week's top stories with our weekly program this is our t.v. international. right just as the dust settled on the trump putin summit in the finishing capital helsinki the white house shocked many people on thursday by announcing it was inviting the russian president to washington this fall in an interview donald trump has since confirmed his intention to meet again. second meeting potentially with putin. is that in the works is it planned has it been i would say it's in the works look we had a tremendous discussion on many things but fact is we get along very well i think i have a good relationship with you russia's ambassador to the u.s. the kremlin is open to such invitations although moscow has yet to give an official
7:02 pm
response to trying to follow the historic helsinki talks for us. 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 togs between donald trump and a lot of our putin with all the the 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 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
7:03 pm
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 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 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 to the he offered to have the
7:04 pm
people working on the case come and work with their investigators with three. back to the twelve people i think that's an incredible of if it was a little bit of it was an intelligence of some us self and i do know how compiled it was 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 alast were of course looking for any tell tale signs from the leaders behavior during their meeting in finland and some think their handshakes spoke volumes we asked a body language expert what could be 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 this with that that he enters the
7:05 pm
room and he faces he 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 very very uncomfortable they look like a divorce and couple and then they reach out for that handshake now what do you see about that handshake is it is a very distant handshake it is not one with a whole bodies are involved you know to start 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. executed donald trump tweeted once again that the meeting with putin was great to despite quote fake news using every bit of their energy to try and disparage it while news of washington's invitation to the russian president sent many media outlets into a frenzy. he went on to attack his
7:06 pm
own people and institutions while standing next to the russian president i don't know which side is the bride and which side of it is the groom anderson but as there were sort of feels like we're at a wedding you have been watching perhaps one of the most disgraceful performances by an american president in this case when it comes to putin the president's taking a pass. they stand by having him to washington so let's collude again that we did last 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 of months in the fall over at the white house because the president he works for is donald trump the american president has however altered his stance on a few things just a day after he had been maintaining his position on letting me putin's noninvolvement over alleged election meddling. president putin he just
7:07 pm
said it's not russian and 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. you agree with u.s. intelligence that. russia meddled in the election for sixteen i would say that that is true but you haven't proven specifically do you hold him personally responsible while i would because he's in charge of the. running is russia still targeting right around here i mean 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
7:08 pm
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 just stop letting them create imaginary enemies that waste money and waste lives on nonsense approaches it appears the us president is continuing his assault not just on the media but on the f.b.i. and justice department as well in a recent tweet donald trump claimed recently published files about a former campaign advisor carter page showed the two organizations misled the court to to obtain a surveillance warrant although this is demonstrably false in numerous documents and the president also claimed without providing any evidence that his election campaign had been illegally spied upon and this comes after the f.b.i. released documents on mr page as part of the longstanding u.s. election meddling saga detailing his alleged involvement with the kremlin. now
7:09 pm
there is a trove of redacted documents which reveal that carter page lived in moscow between two thousand and four and two thousand and seven in two thousand and sixteen it's alleged he met with senior russian officials and to discuss lifting sanctions the crisis in ukraine and compromising information about hillary clinton page denies having any ties to the kremlin this is so ridiculous it's just beyond words it's just so misleading going through those four hundred plus page documents you know where do you even begin it's literally a complete joke and it only continue this it's just really sad. it's cross live now to do you know who's a media commentator and a news analyst you know thanks for being with us here on our t.v. international. i was actually interested in your thoughts on this because. watching it from outside of the states this is just an incredible thing to watch play out but. so about these new. page documents basically the
7:10 pm
five award but it's heavily redacted. given how much of it is redacted what can we actually learn from it. probably a lot of nothing and the thing that i think that is so shocking and i agree with you this is shocking to watch as an american perhaps most of all shocking to watch how some on the left and in the media on the left are not even shocked because they should be because this isn't like america the way they're treating this president feisal were and should be the hardest thing in the world to obtain for the american government to spy on a private american citizen should be the absolute most difficult thing ever certainly if a question does ca should not be a vehicle to a feisty weren't but since we're talking about this the thing that i think that everybody forgets who is looking at this is that our president has access to every
7:11 pm
single classified document in the american government existence contemplate that for a moment if he were at all in secure about what he's seen about what he knows that he can't tell us certainly he wouldn't be acting the way he is he wouldn't be proceeding with the next meeting he wouldn't be acting so confidently in all the ways that he is he knows what really exists in these classified documents and that's why he's proceeding with confidence. often has called this a witch hunt but you know to play devil's advocate here there have been guilty pleas there also have been several indictments and not just these twelve russians that came out recently from the investigation. can it really be called a win if it's actually producing some. illegal gains there. absolutely and here's why there have been there has been nothing no one indicted
7:12 pm
no evidence whatsoever of any sort of pollution you know the media has started to conflate medaling inclusion those are not the same things and while i'm not excusing at all any government meddling in another government certainly i don't want russian meddling in our electoral system this is something that donald trump was worried about during the campaign remember right before the campaign i talked about this all the time and i was defending that he had every right to be concerned that there could be government meddling in our elections the president was arguing that over and over before his campaign it was president obama that said that was a ridiculous assertion the media attack dogs went to work saying the president trump was crazy and paranoid because he was accusing foreign governments of meddling but this is traditionally what foreign governments of has done again i'm not excusing it in any way shape or form it's disgusting but let's not forget that
7:13 pm
president obama tried to undermine netanyahu in the last is really election so these are the kinds of things that government does it doesn't make it right it doesn't make it ok america should fight it with everything we've got i understand all of that but but you know the motivation for the story that the left keeps telling makes absolutely no sense when you consider all of the disconnects that exist in this story and the fact that there's zero evidence zero indictments based on anything even close to collusion all right gentlemen is a media commentator a news analyst interesting to her thoughts and as always great to have here on our two international. all right hours after the helsinki summit wrapped up a twenty nine year old russian woman was arrested in america on charges of conspiracy to act as a foreign agent russia's foreign minister has demanded her release and described the accusations against her as fabricated maria is accused of conspiracy to defraud
7:14 pm
the us and not registering as a foreign agent while promoting russia's state interests she has pleaded not guilty to the charges between his lawyer said the special counsel's office was offered the opportunity to interview her but they showed no interest and investigators also claimed that bhutto was in contact with russian intelligence officials and that she offered sex in exchange for a job at a u.s. special interest organization the attention paid to the story was fueled on twitter where one journalist found out apparently that she had visited donald trump in the oval office and she has been plenty of other places as well reportedly.
7:15 pm
7:16 pm
being own as they say by vladimir putin barris. that it was horrible it was terrible calling 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 this connection between trump and potent and what this is going to do is resonate through some kind of weird pavlovian connection some obey sense that they have to this idea that aha the russians they're at it again even they don't know what the it is that they're

well three once they showed some. video with the broken eastern. t.v. . welcome back this is the week international now the israeli prime minister has said that his country initiated the evacuation of the controversial white helmets group from syria at the request of donald trump and other western allies. if there be one had him of several days to go and trump contacted me as did canadian prime minister
7:19 pm
trudeau and request. to hundreds of white helmets from syria these are people who saved lives and whose lives were in danger therefore i approved the passage through israel to other countries as an important humanitarian gesture. but israel evacuated more than four hundred members of the group and their families to neighboring jordan after calendar britain and germany reportedly agreed to accept at least some of them as refugees syrian government forces have launched an offensive against militants in the south of the country where members of the group are located. upon request of the us canada and european states israel has completed a humanitarian effort to rescue members of the syrian civil war going on is ation the white helmets and families they were evacuated from the war zone in southern syria to a neighboring country now the idea of has caught us to quote an exceptional humanitarian gesture it has said that it carried out this evacuation at the request of the
7:20 pm
united states and several european countries and that the requests are weighty came several weeks ago activists belonging to the white helmets consider themselves rescuers who risk their lives to help save civilians but the organization remains controversial particularly over where its funding comes most of its funding is from the west and as such it is criticized as being an organization that promotes waste an interventionist agenda for example more than thirty two million dollars comes from the united states it also receives funding from the netherlands from denmark germany canada and new zealand.
7:21 pm
now we're still waiting for russian reaction but when the first reports emerged a few days ago over this planned evacuation the russian foreign ministry said that there was concern of a so-called provocations that could happen during such a move but you may she stand farm what's according to the information we have the white helmets convoy arrived in the town of adlib and among the end rivals were several chemical experts in the south the missile parts were also unload it we do not rule out the possibility that these shall we say souvenirs and loaded by the white house will be used as intended art even when is the now is that these members of the white helmets have been evacuated from the region we cannot rule out the possibility of a large here provocation and pinning the blame for this procreation on the syrian government now with all these controversies surrounding the white helmets they certainly are risks and could be more risks around the sea of accusation. in
7:22 pm
addition it to the evacuation of the white helmets of the area has seen hundreds of militants and their families moved to the rebel held north evacuation comes as the syrian army advances along the country's southern the border with jordan syria has long been held by western backed militants and seeking to overthrow president assad but as ability who is an independent investigative journalist wonders why the white helmets are more privileged when it comes to evacuation than ordinary civilians this is an exceptional iraqi regime it's an exceptional evacuation for an exceptional organization created by the exceptional list regimes in the united states and in the u.k. and in the e.u. the nato member states but also supported by particularly saudi arabia. we saw your. protests by the u.n. agencies or demands rather that the white home in fact curated and given priority
7:23 pm
