8:04 pm
when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. welcome back elite media continues to paint labor leader jeremy corbyn as a clown but one of his allies has just been elected president of the fifth largest country in the americas mexico's president elect andres manuel lopez obrador i am low was introduced to corbin by his mexican wife laura elvira's and am low his widely been described as a leftist but when u.s. secretary of state mike pompei meets and on friday how will you work with the trumpet ministration and will offer post breaks it trade deals beyond the u.k. government's current policy of selling weapons to a country in the grip of violent drug wars joining me now is the founder and chairman of the mexican chamber of commerce in great britain evo dutifully if they're coming on let's just begin with who. isn't just by the violence election
8:05 pm
campaign how did he win well. i think i'm you know is a familiar face in mexico. and this and that is my new oil has been around in the political scene for as long as i can remember. he is a person that has committed his life to politics. in one side or the other three institutional channels. the p.r.i. the p.r. the and now martin so he's a familiar face these ones being the old establishment party but he's not i mean he is a new liberal as sub go in there marcos no well what happened back in the late eighty's is that we had the first. separation between two groups in the right the p.r.i. was a party that basically ruled mexico for seventy five years since the potter. the
8:06 pm
revolution. and it was it was found that the d.n.r. actually my great grandfather founded the pm. and i'm going to protest. and be an art was a solution that was created by the various generals fighting in the revolution to buy basically govern with stability. in a pacific way done let's not kill each other let's just organize a political party let's discuss things within the political party but once we reach an agreement that consensus everyone goes behind the president voyeur and gets confused. obrador he said in the election that these parties you're mentioning are mafia their. state with all these parties are just a mafia of power would you think government by that well i don't think political
8:07 pm
parties can be described as the mafia if by were by either i think you referred to certain groups of people that control the political party it's now the mafia they will they are the mafia of my work has been a term used by by by i am long you know it's a very it's a way he has communicated easily with a lot of people because he's referring to a lot of things without actually explaining what he's referring to you know i'm not has been described by some you know for being an abstract painting you know each one can understand whatever he wants to understand from his message the normal pejorative way of describing. trip. give us a look a lot of very very different. how different sort of storage of drop it i mean i am going to seems to agree with trump on nafta he's not a fan of enough to ignore is donald trump. in the third debate that actually it was
8:08 pm
curious because i'm listening to agree on many things for trump raising wages in mexico which has been a discussion within the nafta. renegotiation. agrees with trump trump can see there is that wages in mexico are too low and with that probably what makes them similar is that they both actually care for a majority of the population that has not been taking care of in their own jurisdictions going to the violence hundred five thousand killed during his term i mean these are sort of syria proportions of death and carnage in fact here there was some controversy over the british government licensing weapons sales to mexico the amidst the maffia of power do you think i will be able to do anything about that. well he must i think i think that is something that no one can actually avoid having to deal with. the level of violence has. has because grown to
8:09 pm
levels that cannot be sustained like the need to put the drug cartels out of business every legal as drugs presumably which would terrify which is in the agenda i think. you know it is not still clear exactly what they're going to do it has been mentioned that there is an intent of legalizing at least can abbie's. i think the u.s. gets ninety percent of cocaine it's gained through mexico apparently yes and. i think this has to do you know the problem with drugs is international i think it has to do not only with mexico but it has to do with the whole consumer market in the u.s. you know you cannot go against the economic loss as long as people are buying drugs someone will go and sell them so these are the approach that i think is quite sensible i don't see how you can think about nafta without thinking all the
8:10 pm
implications of our bilateral relation between mexico and the u.s. it has for the with migration is has to do with security issues it has to do with selling weapons illegally has to do with money laundering and all that needs to be taken care in court the need to wait and trade is part of all that because to the extent that mexico. gray says it's level of growth it's economic growth to the extent that mexico can also raise wages to the extent that mexico can actually you know bring those that are falling behind in this process to better status economically is going to be the best for everyone i'm not mentioning he's winning speech the point is how to make the conditions in mexico for mexicans not to have to go to the u.s. to work i think in order to solve the migration problem it's not putting a wall it's actually putting all the conditions in mexico for mexico mexican to
8:11 pm
prosper and be able to make a decent living living producing and be happy in their own country even though dearly thank you you're very welcome thank you for having me. finally now to today's meeting in a palace reconstructed after the spanish civil war catalan president jim giora new spanish socialist pm pedro sanchez me to madrid after democratically elected catalan politicians of either being jailed or issued arrest warrants the fate of one of them professor clark on saturday of st andrews university will be discussed in edinburgh tomorrow in a meeting between torah and scottish first minister nicola sturgeon joining me now via skype from strasburg is george de soleil he's a member of the european parliament representing spain for the republican left of catalonia and he's on the european parliament's committee on foreign affairs majority thanks so much for coming on just before we get to the fate of professor
8:12 pm
glare upon sanity successful as being this catalonia dialogue platform after your paris meeting perhaps it will meet in london next. yes we were last week in the summer in action. in the french founder and the lead it was successful in the sense that we could explain to some friends and b.s. that govern situation in. all sound and use of our platform from the minute of the end palomino we were very interested in change of the us and work at. dr. beach from different political affiliations to look at this and that's precisely what we want to do on this data exchange of views and information with and based what about professor claire up on
8:13 pm
saturday is it understandable that there are fears in scotland in britain now that scottish prosecutors have been given the go ahead on behalf of spain to begin extradition proceedings on the allegations a violent rebellion. we dress the sort this out and to do so he. already see. the belgian should use it he discovered it or use a look ations of this turkish. city should reveal a misuse of public funds to go away to the station in in germany i'm sounding that which someone we completely address or at least into the city systems. going to the spanish one have to say. like this that goes that chair to this. against politicians i don't want members of go around and completely destroy
8:14 pm
tonight. they have no solid basis that and it shows a lack of quality that i will say a ranking. system in spain what is the mood like in brussels strasburg do they understand that around the world politicians everywhere looking on as democratically elected politicians in europe being i think there was a report the other day saying well at least they're going to be moved from prisons in madrid to prisons in catalonia do they understand what they did being permanent you know a very big problem and so on and fifteen members from. member states of rome differ but in ideological downs so you can find very different opinions on on on what's going on what i would say. vast majority of the member seeing this chambre.
8:15 pm
don't understand the way the spanish government and the spanish estate reacted after the events let's look don't put the image and they don't understand it so there's no comprehend. john that perhaps the whole reputation of the european union is now in tatters the european commission president york are saying intervention would cause chaos whatever bedroom sanchez the so-called socialist prime minister does the european union is now synonymous with jailing democratically elected politicians is that because it is the sixth largest economy is an economic situation because you are on the budget committee spending is an important member state of the european union not only in its economic sales but also it's a wait. and and in the u.k. and you know the our politics modest whether it's in. the action of commission and
8:16 pm
in general of the institutions has been disappointing it's over some people are saying the e.u. were saying it might intervene in italy for it because italy was perceived to be and you can you can the politicians and breath of understand way here in britain people understand breck's it because they don't want to be part of a european union that defacto drowns refugees in the mediterranean jails democratically elected politicians and seems to act for its own own institutions rather than for the suppose a devalues the e.u. is founded on. the answer to that to my mind that maybe you should be modern direction instead of lessons the russians should be more europe instead of less of course. one of the reasons that explain. this
8:17 pm
reaction of the institutions to war or what happened and what's going on in catalonia one of the reasons is that there are utopian you know. it's still too much based on the bow or. of national states and in that context still national interests. are important to a lot of national states then to defend themselves even if it implies. a blind eye where elations on the many ways for you and you want president you to take more power over that's the answer to the jailing of democratically elected politicians is the nation state of the robot then you are no i want i want another more democratic europe
8:18 pm

journalism finds itself in the media spotlight in the us softer c.n.n. refuses to trump the trump collusion story that's even off the network's source on his most serious claims. in europe over the migration issue was the french present . says he's now the main opponent for the hardline anti migrant leaders of italy hungary. and with a decisive battle looming over the last rebel stronghold in syria the russian foreign minister warns that the us seemingly prefers regime change and removing
8:21 pm
terrorists. into our international just gone ten pm here in moscow. thanks for joining us this hour. c.n.n. is under fire after refused to retract a breaking news story on collusion between donald trump and russia that's the spite the news channel source publicly withdrawing a significant claim the whole story was based on we discussed this earlier with r.t. is it up a trunk or. a quick look at some of the nuts and bolts of russia collusion storytelling we've gotten rather used to the media running sensational headlines because a number of anonymous sources said this or that well what if the anonymous source reveals his identity and says the story's not true or that he's made a mistake perhaps you'd expect the outlet to take
8:22 pm
a step back consider some skepticism possibly make a correction or take the story down altogether not if you're c.n.n. we stand by our story and are confident in our reporting on it and here's their original bombshell story from a month ago sources with knowledge tell myself and call that michael cohen claims then candidate donald trump knew in advance about the june twenty sixth meeting in trump tower crucially these sources tell us that cohen is willing to make that assertion to the special counsel wabbit bowler so the sensation was that the president's former lawyer would tell investigators mr trauma had known about the infamous crump tower sit down featuring his son and the russians sure that counts as a sensation as many would take it as proof there had been collusion well a few weeks later a man called lanny davis michael cohen's own attorney comes out and says he was the
8:23 pm
source for c n n a b he's made a mistake and c. is inside into this complicated matter has been misinterpreted mr davis eventually even appeared on c.n.n. several times to reiterate just that the reporting of this story got mixed up so michael cohen does not have information that president trump knew about the from tower meeting with the russians beforehand or you know does not is that your understanding now that the senate has. as been told no michael cohen stands by his testimony he did not know of the trump tower meeting beforehand that's correct and the reporting was a bit but c.n.n. did nothing to warn its audience the story could have been false in fact it even began attacking the man who it once used as a source blaming him for changing his mind as often as the wind however when c.n.n.
8:24 pm
first broke the news based on a tip off from sources it mentioned that attorney davis declined to comment on the matter now we know that mr davis and the source are the same person unlike these guys other influential outlets the likes of the washington post came up with follow up reports or included corrections they weren't saying the original story was false for sure but at least casts some doubt this was the time when journalists went to c.n.n. but c.n.n. only answer to their question was we stand by our story it's still right because we had multiple sources did c.n.n. name any of these sources no this is out sometimes work and there could be a much bigger issue behind this kind of news climate one congressman from the republican party has claimed serious people from the likes of the justice
8:25 pm
department could leak sensitive stuff to the media on purpose he says this could be a tactic to trigger and list rounds of probes we know that some people at the department of justice today f.b.i. actually gave information to the media in the stories were reported then they use those reports to justify further investigations could that point to some other form of collusion don't you dare even think that russia gate is the coin of the room here if you have a story no matter how false you're out with it before anybody pays any attention to this. sourcing we have a sleazy bunch of lawyers and i'd have to. pundits and reporters who now are caught in this web of misinformation. speaking at all kinds of euphemisms for lying i would suggest that if they do have another source that to defend what's left of their reputation they need to serve up
8:26 pm
some information about this source but as i say they have no imperative to do that because and at c.n.n. on and this n.b.c. and the cable and also the other outlets this story will kind of peter out and what people will remember is the first impression namely trump lied again. the french president spilled himself i was the main opponent of the hardline anti modern politicians currently holding power in its early and hungry and soft the pair united to fight existing e.u. migration policies and vowed to take power into their own hands in the next elections for the european parliament he shot at them in skiing as more. we're seeing clear signs developing as we head towards the european elections in twenty nineteen but what we're seeing is the big divisions between the leaders of e.u. nations where the money will not go the president of france declaring today that he
8:27 pm
would be in opposition to the leaders of italy aren't hungry if that's what they wanted and he would stand up against their policies. just because it is indeed clear that today there is a strong opposition between nationalists and progressives and i will not give anything away to nationalists and to those who deliver this hate speech and so if they wanted to see me as their main opponent they are right well that's what a president might call and had to say oh off to that meeting on tuesday between the leader of hungary viktor orban and the deputy prime minister of italy mattel you know selvi me now they met yesterday in a phone did very well one of the issues that they were discussing was the migration crisis of the single europe over the last year and that you said that they would look to work together to solve that crisis. so the current situation is like that there are two sides one is led by matter on who is supporting migration we are on
8:28 pm
the other side trying to stop illegal immigration and this issue is strongly debated inside the european people's party and we want all aligned to be accepted. we're asking for collaboration first of all from the large countries the countries that share a border with us like france the first person who should show his sensitivity and solidarity is the french president by reopening the border at ventimiglia and he can do so even tomorrow morning well the two you have not always seen one hundred percent right to eye on the issue of migration we know that much selvi knee in italy has talked about italy burdening too much of the responsibility of the migrants want some to be dispersed of course you. whereas what we've seen from hungary's prime minister viktor orban as well as leaders of countries such as poland and the czech republic is a point blank refusal to take any more likely end of the two have come together because they believe that they can form the best and main opposition to the current
8:29 pm
status quo in the european union quiz look at some of the figures now of the migration crisis in two thousand and eighteen the figures show that so far around eighty two thousand migrants have come to europe across land from the sea in addition to that fifteenth fifteen hundred people are feared to be missing or have died in the crossing in the mediterranean. way. this migration crisis continues to cause
8:30 pm
a huge rift in europe and it looks like it's once again going to be one of the biggest platforms coups in division in europe as we head to the elections just in eight months time the question is which side is going to win out respect the rights of political commentators on bricmont who feels anti immigrant sentiment is becoming more and more popular within the european union. we michael should be worried about fees that celgene is far more popular in italy and my colleagues in france and of course all banning hunger you see the mother i mean old opposed to that in the election sure that well expect a large block of until they pities to get like did you see in france the high. i mean not the five the very the republicans are already taking the opportunity of having a very in and i mangle a discourse which is between the can is because the family friends is not thinking that really right now it's easy to be with the adult fans.
