what. love that international headlines this in a dress to the u.n. general assembly russia's foreign minister rails against the quote political blackmail economic pressure and brute force he says western governments are using to maintain global dominance. for an emotionally charged committee hearing donald trump meantime orders an f.b.i. investigation into claims of sexual assault leveled at the supreme court nominee. and a big backlash for facebook in response to potentially the worst security breach in
7:01 am
the company's history of the fifty million users accounts have been directly affected. by the you watching out international live from moscow with me kevin now in thirty minutes of news coming up for you this saturday and then starting with this russia's foreign minister wrapping up his participation at the u.n. general assembly on friday with an attack on western foreign policy condemned what he called the parochial self-serving ambitions of a small group of countries and says those states are undermining the organization and its principles to reports from new york. the number of western states are seeking to preserve the status of global leaders and prevent a natural transition to a multi-polar world order to that in this means including political blackmail economic pressure and. brute force subject to these leads to devaluation of
7:02 am
international law surrogate saved all he and russia had to say to the rest of the world for his final day in new york the foreign minister kept himself within the boundaries of diplomatic language however his criticism and told the war. the international community has paid dearly for the self-serving ambitions of these countries diplomacy a culture of negotiation and compromise have been replaced by a unilateral restrictions like un security council approval such actions and not just illegal but also just ineffective like that long serious statement the press conference where covered the same global issues happened to be an event where the audience had a giggle a few times so there is a policy a new policy no land express creation in south africa that that they're implementing is
7:03 am
a parliamentary process people could lose their farms without compensation and there's talk that russia is trying to take the gap if you will and some of those disgruntled. linguist but the law in the election is. no time for that too far too far but what if. somebody wants to issue an order from the. president. and. so the question is not. what do you think of the future two of the united nations. well the most awaited speaker and this building and also at the u.n. security council was still president trump this year his pick for the planet's greatest evil was a wreck but the rest of the world didn't fall for it and even. america's allies in
7:04 am
europe didn't. pointed that out once again and said that moscow will continue working with china and the major players to do everything to preserve the so-called iran nuclear agreement when i spoke to the person in charge of dealing with the media at the russian foreign ministry she couldn't help talking about how it all took president twelve months to make a complete u. turn when it comes to his take on little rocket man kim according to marie is a harvard there's still loads of room for improvement for the u.s. administration for many years most of korea was in medieval and this country and. the leaders of this country and the country itself and their people to spencer it was mentioned as the world's hugest problem and in the evil was the world which was used to describe the country and now yeah and now i think the you heard mr.
7:05 am
thing several times korea so what happened to the city and i was not north korea has changed nothing like that happen but united states changed their position then their policy toward north korea probably the they can use a similar approach to iran and the things will go better yeah who knows what kind of twists and turns another year will bring about franco in new york. former american diplomats of judge chris what he thought about the remarks from russia's foreign minister. noticed. mr lover of tends to be very diplomatic very polite very gentlemanly in his expression but i did notice a certain level of impatience today that he i think his patients has been tried one time too many yes we are talking about whether or not we will we will continue down road this. united states seeking. in
7:06 am
a very sterile way and destructive way to hold on to this notion of global hegemony or whether there will be a peaceful and national natural transition to a more more multi-polar world so far we don't see the people making policy in washington willing to make that transition and i think that is something extremely dangerous and i think maybe that partly accounts for mr lover of sense of impatience well as a correspondent pointed out of course most attention of this his u.n. general assembly was paid to the american presidents his had double trouble. with the diplomats.
7:07 am
less than two years my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country. america hears so true i. didn't expect that reaction but that so. many will become totally dependent on russian energy if it does not immediately change course. but all nations of the world should resist socialism. and the misery. that it brings i am the first president ever to challenge china on trade.
7:08 am
it's not diplomatic and they find it funny. they weren't laughing at me they were laughing with me we had fun. i. had a side from the old rivalries were also reignited at the un general assembly after the israeli prime minister announced that he had knowledge of a secret of reigning atomic way in return to iran lashed out of that saying rather it was israel which was the only country in the mideast with undeclared nuclear weapons is a senior correspondent with. the general assembly is never dull the drama threats ultimatums and accusations but few relationships are as heartfelt or as emotional as radioactive as the one between israel and iran and the disclosing for the first time. that iran has another secret facility into iran
7:09 am
a secret atomic warehouse for storing massive amounts of equipment and material for me secret nuclear weapons program with this now traditional back and forth you will never have to wait long for response no arts and crafts show will never of frisky that is really his only regime in our region with the secret undeclared nuclear weapons program including in actually tomic arsenal time for israel to fess up and open its illegal nuclear weapons program to international inspectors fair play to israel has a policy of nuclear ambiguity where it neither confirms law denies its nuclear weapon program and an arsenal of nukes yes no question for you does israel have nuclear capabilities and nuclear weapons yes or no. we've always said that we won't be the first to introduce who we have been
7:10 am
introduced so here's what we actually know about israel's nuclear hobby it's one of only five nations not to have signed the nuclear nonproliferation treaty the cia reported that israel had its first new call most awful a century ago well you know they've got one nuclear weapon israel has what three hundred or more nobody knows exactly how many in one thousand nine hundred eighty six a former technician mordechai vanunu spilled the beans revealed the location and details of israel's secrets nuclear complex photographs of the control room and information about how nuclear warheads were assembled in a covert six story deep underground complex there's troubles midst of a new new was kidnapped in room by israeli agents and taken back home charges included treason espionage intent to impair national security he spent eighteen
7:11 am
years in jail eleven of them in solitary confinement israel wasn't happy. not very well this is after everyone already said i have two hundred dollars i don't. know america i know you don't know anyone know there's a ron have a point should israel come out of the closet with its radioactive little secret perhaps but while no one knows for sure the israeli prime minister can continue to log about thinly veiled threats that would give a geiger counter a seizure while standing in front of his nuclear weapons in a bar or research center. human whoever threatens us with destruction puts themselves in similar danger and in any case will not achieve his goal. is an absence of a sad and tragic absence of any movement toward a middle east peace process. and mr nathaniel instead of coming to the u.n.
7:12 am
and that this scene this media each should that he is responsible for more than anybody else in the world he just zeroes in and focuses on iran demonizes iran and that's not watching it with anyone in the world community today and we saw that there was a very muted reaction to all the good reasons. a senate vote on total terms controversial pick for the supreme court's been postponed once again after the judiciary committee decided to give the f.b.i. one week now to investigate the accusations of sexual assault leveled against brett kavanaugh a charge he strongly denies the president himself has ordered an investigation into the claims it's yet another delay that in one of the most divisive confirmation hearings in american political history. feels like alice in wonderland around here rather than working with us my democratic colleagues chose not to participate in this process and yet again and again their refrain has been the same delay delay delay i'm very disappointed that we are here today voting on this nomination this
7:13 am
supposed to be an independent equal branch of government we're no longer that we are in a very we are of a trump white house it's the beginning. of a process. that will tear this country apart the u.s. senate judiciary committee has been conducting confirmation hearings for brett kavanaugh nominated to be a supreme court justice by donald trump they took a vote to take the nomination of brett kavanaugh to the floor of the u.s. senate now as the vote was preparing we saw kind of a last minute proposal from republican senator jeff flake he proposed essentially that a final vote on the floor of the senate wouldn't take place until the f.b.i. had been able to do an investigation i do think that we can. have
7:14 am
a short pause and make sure that the f.b.i. can investigate that i understand it is that some of us would have to and i'm prepared to do it make a request to the white house to ask the f.b.i. to do that investigation it would be short. and limited in scope to the current allegations that have been made i would like to support the motion for that investigation i've explained many times the mother investigation is not necessary the nomination of brett kavanaugh has certainly divided the united states of america both sides very fired up about it and it appears that next week we will have a final vote in the u.s. senate regarding his confirmation as a supreme court justice in the united states the highest court in the land but it has been quite contentious protests all around capitol hill lots of accusations on
7:15 am
both sides lots of anger. the scandal surrounding judge confidence triggered a severe partisan feud known in the u.s. the republican senator lindsey graham's comments in front of the senate judiciary committee hearing on thursday captured the current level of animosity right now in washington in a bid to as it turned the accuse the democrats of a cynical attempt to derail covered his nomination put you want to do is destroy this guy's life hold this seat open this is demote an ethical. share. since i've been in politics if you really wanted to know the truth you sure as hell would have done what you've done to this guy senator graham storage defense of brett kavanaugh has drawn criticism as well american comedienne chelsea handler even claimed that graham is being blackmailed by moscow despite the fact the grahams were known for his anti russia's stance in the senate they're trying to break the backs of democracies they're doing worse things in other countries they're trying to get us to fight among ourselves and here's what we should do we
7:16 am
should tell the russians in no uncertain terms you interfered in our elections we don't care why we're going to hit you and hits you hard in russia. is not a normal country. media and legal analyst lionel told us the russian claim against senator graham's nothing but absurd. the idea is so specious. they're suggesting that that the russians had this man through blackmail they blackmailed senator graham one of the most staunch heretofore in some cases and the russian senator to speak on behalf of the president trumps nominee who is a republican as he is this this is not the way blackmail works as easy as blackmail imagine me blackmailing you to say something or do something if you're going to do anyway it doesn't make any sense this is an example of how
7:17 am
people in our country here the so-called elite the intelligentsia the the shanty hollyweird the the i guess the liberal if you well at your tame and arm of american entertainment factions all of a sudden they feel impelled and compelled and able to comment on issues they know nothing about. right after that a rough through for us to silicon valley's tears were also facebook because both took joy in seeing huge drop in shares over not telling all about it so. unfortunate ukrainian government destroys that country i don't know maybe they
7:18 am
don't understand this but they destroyed the country yeah they lost not only crimea but they lost their own people in two regions ukraine u.s. and russia they really have historically very deep roots and to cuts these roads and to try just to show yourself that you are absolutely separate and different. from russia this is absolutely stupid the way this is the way to nowhere. that a petition. god to the life of the civilians and by all means and being all part of it even you know it all and. committing crime was this it is a national all the same a lot of the. human and also a lot of value. i
7:19 am
guess this is at international thanks to more than three hundred eighty people have died after that powerful earthquake triggered a tsunami in indonesia on friday it's left hundreds of others injured to its according to the country's disaster agency which they said expect the numbers to rise as well thousands of homes along the hospitals along with all spittle rather and along the coast of collapsed hotels and gone as well up to three meters high waves were at times it's in palawan so the way where beach first falls on the way the earthquake also caused a major power cut that some put communication for rescue teams. facebook is facing a lawsuit over its apparent inability to keep its users personal information secure it comes in response to what was potentially the company's worst ever security breach fifty million accounts may have been compromised. our engineering team
7:20 am
discovered a security issue affecting almost fifty million accounts is clear the attack is exploited a vulnerability in facebook's code does allow them to take over people's accounts facebook admitting on tuesday that their platform was breached fifty million accounts affected a further. forty million also having their passwords changed so that's nineteen million people in total and facebook releasing a statement saying that those accounts could have been used by people with the ferias tensions and that at this early stage of their investigation they don't know who these people are or where they're based who carried out this attack and naturally that's led to anger being expressed on other social media platforms oh my god someone besides through facebook was willing to sell your info to me have you in food herbal times i knew something was up last night when i signed there has
7:21 am
occurred in line at clicked on to now logged out of my accountant and country mental my passport time to change it again if they refused to protect those dimona ties consumers clients should quit in possibly the should be put out of business now it's been a tough year for facebook earlier this year they teamed up with the atlantic council the american think tank to combat what they said was fake news but that's led to accusations by many that they only cracking down on certain types of facebook pages and that that is an infringement of free speech also earlier this year facebook coming under attack and under heavy criticism for their links with cambridge the little millions of facebook users data was accessed and used for political purposes by the company and that led to the founder of the company mark zuckerberg releasing a statement conceded that the company must do better we have
7:22 am
a responsibility to protect your data and if we can't and we don't deserve to serve you so it's been a tough year for facebook and what comes next is important if mr zuckerberg and his team want to rebuild trust in the social media giant. if facebook's fixed the issue but the company shares fell of its c.e.o. mark zuckerberg net worth plunged by two billion dollars security research we spoke to thinks that could have to be much worse though and that facebook must keep working on bolstering its security. as an awful lot of infrastructure an awful lot of users to protect and watch the fifty million users impacted by this pos the additional forty million they've taken extra measures to protect us still only a few percent of facebook's how it all user base was this is a very large breach and it could have been a lot worse i think that any effort that they can point to bettering their stance on security is always good in terms of how effective that will be we can only really wait and see what the outcome is as we progress into the future.
7:23 am
meantime more bad news for another tech giant tesla lost one of the hov billion dollars overnight after found elon musk was ques to fraud by the u.s. securities and exchange commission the federal agencies also seeking his removal from the role of c.e.o. and chairman of the company clearly made a mistake is obviously one of the great entrepreneurs of our generation who may call themselves wildly successful but they've never made a profit without even any sort of real knowledge the port backs of what's probably should be a lot more sleep probably should be a lot more careful before he tweets i'm just saying this rolling the dice nothing wrong with the automobiles that are foreign but the business is. mitigated disaster well the tweet that cause most of this trouble now was dated from august the seventh most commands that he was considering taking tesla private proposed a price of four hundred twenty dollars per share adding that he had secured
7:24 am
sufficient funding to do so he also expressed high hopes for all existing shareholders to endorse his idea the f.c.c. though picked up on an unexpected and surprising link. we ledge that must could have arrived at the price of four hundred twenty dollars by assuming a twenty percent premium of tesla's then existing share price and then rounding up to four hundred twenty because of the significance of that number in marijuana culture and his belief that his girlfriend would be amused by it as the stocks proved falling since early august when musk posted is to eat shares were three hundred eighty dollars but on thursday the company's stock closed more than one hundred dollars down after the f.c.c. accused of fraud. if the odds are probably in your favor you should make as many decisions as possible within the bounds of what is executable this is like being in the house in vegas probability is the most powerful force in the universe which is why the house always wins be the house. stock exchange commission is going to
7:25 am
actually look at whether this was within the rules and regulations around reporting market sensitive information which is strictly not the way it should be done but also i think they're going to be most horrified at their lack of clarity and possibly accuracy because sometime later it was found that they weren't going to be going private so he's got a lot of questions to answer here in the case of mr musk he is obviously a very well known charismatic personality but there is a some concern that he's a little bit erratic and some of the announcements that he's made either in relation to the firm or a recent tweet that he made about a cave diver. somewhat erratic and not what you would expect from the sort of stable management that most companies require. well our top stories so far oh so much more few course on our main site r.t. dot com or to work around the clock to bring you the news as it happens along with first class and system features are up make sure you never miss any breaking of ads
7:26 am
to see if you haven't already here in moscow those so far this saturday is kevin thanks for watching r.t. and have a great weekend. thanks guys it's my that'll survival guide. when customers go by you're just. to know well read you something. that's undercutting but what's good for food markets is not good for the global economy. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guests of the world of politics this list i'm showbusiness i'll see that.
7:27 am
worth. a few. times. congress yeah june ninth a comedy show where americans in america covering american news are called foreign agents. tonight i bring you the latest cover up by our corporate media this one is down in florida you may have heard about the red tide going on down there it's a type of micro scopic algae that kills most everything and a half florida's gulf coast waters are currently covered in it and therefore also covered in dead fish and marine life and nothing says you know bring the kids on down for some fun in the sun like tons of rotting fish filled with neurotoxins on the coast of a state. but. florida. it's tromso to overstate how horrible the red tide has been for florida marine life is
7:28 am
dead businesses can't pay bills people are getting sick and even the face eaters have had to pick their victims far more carefully. than they used to so when the state government is trying to both warn people about red tide and yet play it down at the same time hi i'm rhonda watkins i'm with you county pollution control i bet you have the same questions that i had. so hopefully i can answer some of those for you maybe dispel some of the mist that you keep hearing about red tide so does that mean if there's red tide you can't go to the beach no because you have to have three things happen for you to feel the red tide at the beach you have to have a high enough red tide level you have to have wave action and the wind has to be blowing in your direction. no. good order to get sick from red tide there has to be red tide and then there have to be waves and wind at the big. where does that happen if the fish was acting normal when you caught it that means
7:29 am
you didn't see this big group or someone at the top and acting weird and you just invented it and colin actually you caught it by hook and line in and put up a good fight and it looks healthy eating that muscle tissue is fine if it put up a good fight. whether i ingested neuro toxin comes down to whether my fish had a good left jab or not out of it and if it was acting weird what then i don't know i think but what if you go i saw him buy and hot dogs are not hot dog buns is weird . you would believe this ten pound bass i caught it was just sitting in a one chair smoking is there no. right of this video as well as the florida fish and wildlife conservation commission says that swimming is safe for most people however the red tide can cause some people to suffer skin irritation and burning eyes gray may cause a rash and burning on dime on into let's see what happens. this isn't the only
7:30 am
activity i treat like that is sex ok but. nothing else. funny they're not really mentioning that according to the national library of medicine in humans a significant increase in self reported respiratory symptoms has been described as a recreational an occupational exposures to flow. or to read type aerosols as in a are ok so rash is burning eyes respiratory symptoms all due to the noro toxins that are invading your body but now some women you know you might want to send your dog in first to see if he washes onto the shore with a leg sticking up if you have a dog in those red tide it's not a good idea this take your dog to the beach never bar and do not bring to the door are going to write anything grieving will die a horrible death except you and your kids are your all or all five of the
