well i was. at the u.n. general assembly russia's foreign minister bails against the political blackmail economic pressure and brute force he says the government used to maintain global dominance. protests take over barcelona as police use force against pro independence demonstrators in catalonia just two days before the first anniversary of the region's independence referendum. and

after an emotionally charged committee hearing donald trump orders an f.b.i. investigation into claims of sexual assault leveled at his supremes pick. their saturday evening an ace here in moscow money welcome to news this september twenty ninth russia's foreign minister wrapping up his participation of the un general assembly on friday with an attack on western foreign policy so good of rob condemned what he called the parochial self-serving ambitions of a small group of countries and said those states are undermining the organization and its principles trying to reports from new york. it's a seeking to preserve the status of the global leaders and prevent

a natural transition to a multi-polar world order to that means including political blackmail economic pressure and brute force so objectivity is lead to devaluation of international law surrogate saved all here in russia i have 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paid dearly for the self-serving ambitions of these countries diplomacy a culture of negotiation and compromise have been replaced by unilateral restrictions like un security council approval such actions are not just illegal but also just ineffective like that long serious statement the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 of the land express creation in south africa that that they're implementing as 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 asked to assure you from that sure that was the president. so the question is not. what do you think of the future of the united nations. why. 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 rant but the rest of the world didn't fall for it and even america's allies in 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 took president twelve months to make a complete u. turn and what 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 country it

was mentioned as the world's hugest problem and the evil was the world which was used to describe the country and now yeah and now i think the you heard mr. 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 change 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. in new york but we asked a former u.s. diplomat jim truss what he thought about the russian foreign minister's remarks but he noticed. mr lover of tends to be very diplomatic very polite to. gentlemanly in his expression but i did notice a certain level of impatience today that he i think his patience has been tried

one time too many yes we are talking about whether or not we will we will continue down this road of the united states seeking. in a very sterile way in 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 we had from our correspondent a little earlier it was the u.s. presidents who grabbed most of the attention at this year's event general assembly here's how donald trump's appearance went down with diplomats.

in less than two years my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country. america's so true. 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. honest and it's not diplomatic and they find it funny. they weren't laughing at me they were laughing with me we had fun. while rival rig night at the un general assembly to off to the israeli prime minister announced that he had knowledge of a secret iranian atomic warehouse to iran last out saying rather that it was israel which was the only country in the middle east with undeclared nuclear weapons has all senior correspondent what i guess. the general assembly is never dull the drama threats ultimatums and i q's ations but few relationships are as heartfelt or as emotional as radioactive as the one between israel and iran and dicks disclosing

for the first time that iran has another secret facility in tehran a secret atomic warehouse for storing massive amounts of equipment and material. from iran secret nuclear weapons program with this now traditional back and forth you will never have to wait long for a sponsor you know arts and crafts show will ever obfuscates that israel is the only regime in a region with a secret an undeclared nuclear weapons program including an actual atomic 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 joint to do so and so we haven't 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 hof a century ago well you know they've got one nuclear weapon and 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 years in jail eleven of them in solitary confinement israel wasn't happy. not very well after everyone already said i have two hundred. 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 lab 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 missed in it and you know instead of coming to the un and had listened. in this media each year that he is responsible for more than anybody else in the world he jersey are always seen and focuses on iran demonizes iran and that's not watching it with anyone in the world community today and beside that there was a very muted reaction to him and for all the good reasons. apollonius one year anniversary of its independence vote is looming and clashes have erupted in barcelona as a pro independence protests turned violent this saturday lunchtime at least twenty four people have been injured and six others detained.

all right police it's all there to feed using force to push back crowds as protesters responded by throwing paint powder demonstrators started gathering on friday night to counter protest another group marching in support of the security forces monday marks one year since the separatist regions controversial referendum on independence day sparked the worst political crisis in decades led to play madrid declared the vote illegal and the national police and civil guard were heavily criticized for a violent crackdown on catalonia in twenty seventeen talked to madrid based journalist martin robert i believe tensions have been fated one iraq. and push came to shove last year pro independence politicians in the parliament unilaterally declared independence the international community either rejected the us or ignored it completely so that's one thing you have the legacy of the last

that the unilateral reuss last year did not work it looks so unlikely to work again in the near future and that has divided the independence movement the main be no clear road map for the independence movements at the moment but tensions are still running high they were running high last year memories are still very fresh at the castle and society is still very divided and the wounds haven't been healed yes. the u.s. president has ordered an f.b.i. investigation into accusations of sexual assault leveled against his supremes court nominee brett kavanaugh a judiciary committee meetings put the brakes on the vote through proposing a one week delay before confirming the next judge but the divide was evident among the committee members during the heated hearing. 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 be the senate is supposed to be an independent equal branch of government we're no longer that we are an arm and a very weak arm of the trump white house is 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 we can. have

a short pause and make sure that the f.b.i. can investigate and 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 with mother if the 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 both sides lots of anger still ahead this saturday the latest from indonesia struck

well that is what has come in for some extra attention from donald trump over the past week as he announced sanctions against the president's inner circle over corruption allegations because madeira is accused of driving up hyperinflation as well as human rights violations trump said millions of people have been turned into refugees and washington could use its military to oust madeira if need be it's over even the trade link could be toppled very quickly by the military or the military is said to do that i just want to see you that is where the great yeah sure you are the only. ones and the less than strong every out there you know. that israel is a mess and it's got to be cleaned up and people have to be taken care of the united states has the longest the longest history of any country in the entire globe meddling with other people's. spirits and when and when the u.s. i'm being picky here only talks about camp loops and trump talks about socialism it's very hypocritical we're suppose long held out her in this well before with

little chavez now with manure oh and it has a lot to do with the fact that it's an independent socialist state and you know united states is hyper capitalist they've had no problem with they have no problem with gators around the world especially those that that embrace capitalism that grace us carol isn't and you know function is there you know quasi allies the u.s. will resort to any alliance they know that they will play upon that your political ignorance of a vast amount many united states citizens and will do these things to try to to try to foment you know some kind of made up scenario to instigate a war. european union is warning italy over its new draft budget as experts fear the new populist government could be on a path to financial collapse but in italian economy minister hailed the plan as a budget for the people of italy.

there. the budget plan opens the door to a people's budget elimination policy means there are many citizens entrepreneurs and people who work below the poverty line who will pay less tax. besides cutting taxes the plan will look to lower the retirement age boost welfare and invest in key infrastructure the target is two point four percent of gross domestic product over the next three years that's three times higher than the last administration the e.u. deficit ceiling is three percent so it won't be in violation of the box financial rules but it's spreading fear that italy could face a similar economic crisis as greece did with rome's debt to brussels set to increase the budgets are plans will not resume poorman but will cause trouble to the savings of the terrel its this budget is not for the people it is it is the people. financial expert charlie boyle says the goalposts change when it comes to countries in the financial services in europe but considering the eighty year it's . a lot especially early in our financial services sector one rule one another rule

for another and if you look at the great crisis where the greek bailout was really their instrument banks total hypocrisy by the way services countries which were all were against three countries that go into debt sort of go into debt and the primary reason they include debt was because of the banking sector in the first place so there's a real problem when it's not the source of little or against the financial services sector and unless that happens the problems that we continue to face i'm not going to be a resort. tech giant tesla lost one of the half billion dollars overnight after found musk was accused of fraud by the u.s. securities and exchange commission a recent report said that musk was offered a deal to settle out of court but the client at the last minute tesla's board of directors also supported that decision saying they're fully confident in their with the c.e.o. of strong march hillary's board which you're ready come on let's go. the u.s.
