washington announces it's backing out of the sixty year old treaty with iran then responds to the un's highest court ruling that the us should drop around sanctions targeting humanitarian aid. british prime minister attempts to dance off mounting pressure to resume a gets a letter of no confidence from her own party members just moments. also this hour donald trump warns the king of saudi arabia that he wouldn't last two weeks without the u.s. military as the u.s. president continues to accuse opec of influencing oil prices. protecting you might not be there for two weeks without us you have to pay for your

military. and also mixing big politics with energy president. take a look at the merits or find out who is responsible for the rise in oil prices. there is one saving grace here in moscow money welcome to world news for a mousy international the u.s. secretary of state has announced that the country is pulling out of the so-called friendship treaty with iran which was struck back in one hundred fifty five is after the un's highest court ordered washington to lift some of its sanctions on tehran a move which my pompei o says as a result of iranian propaganda. decision to cease participation in the iran nuclear deal and to reimpose the sanctions that were lifted as part of that deal. or on his attempt to interfere with the sovereign rights of the united

states to take a lawful actions necessary to protect our national security. iran is abusing the i suggest for political and propaganda purposes well that came after the ruling by the i.c.j. the international court of justice which ruled that the usa must lift some of the sanctions that are imposed on iran this year when it announced its withdrawal from the iranian nuclear accord they include allowing items such as medicines and medical aid as well as equipment needed for the safety of the civil aviation authority in iran that judgment also ruled that that treaty and that was formed by the u.s. and iran back in one thousand nine hundred i had been violated something iran had pressed the i.c.j. to rule on now this is not the first time that the usa has dismissed an international court or an international body and not abided by its ruling back in

june of this year we know that the u.s. withdrew from the human rights council calling it a cesspool of political bias it was also an attack by donald trump in september so last month on the international criminal courts over a possible action that could be taken against americans who are alleged to have committed war crimes in afghanistan as far as america is concerned the i.c.c. has no jurisdiction no legitimacy and no authority. the i.c.c. playing near universal jurisdiction over the citizens of every country. violating all principles of justice fairness and due process whether ron had welcomed that ruling today saying that that ruling showed that the u.s. sanctions were cruel and illegal against the people and the citizens of iran but it doesn't seem like that ruling is going to change the opinion of the united states

we know that they have been planning to announce new sanctions next my. against iran and it seems like that those new sanctions will go ahead despite that ruling by the i.c.j. the question now many people are asking is who will keep the u.s. in check it seems that the i.c.j. simply cannot. political analysts say it must africa's chesham believes that washington's too focused on itself and that affects its attitude to international entreaties the u.s. believes that it's an exceptional state as president obama stated and he believed in that president trump is a real manifestation of this the wrong idea that the u.s. is exceptional all other nations should abide by the rules and regulations except for the united states so therefore the u.s. is adamant to the rule of the law it has proved to be an irresponsible actor and it's been you know this respecting international treaties rules as well as the

remans under president donald trump the situation has been even worse in the mean time sanctions play a pivotal role of the united states current policy against iran to intimidate and pressure iran into negotiations therefore i believe donald trump and his administration with abide by the law. britain's ruling conservative party has wrapped up its annual conference and despite speeches of unity the prime minister's position is under further scrutiny from party members just moments before to resume a was due to give her keynote speech she was dealt yet another blow with a letter of no confidence now that it seems to have dampened her spirit.

all tories amaze quick as she approached the podium seem to be the prime minister responding to those who mocked her dance moves while on a tour of africa in august and going to reports on the conservative party conference certainly a curious political times here in the u.k. as we speak and this annual conservative party conference has wrapped up to quite a. bit of drama despite british prime minister theresa may putting up a show of keeping up appearances including with that quirky dance to dancing queen despite a speech that was really seen as make or break for her because of course much of the speech was dedicated to theresa may trying to show that she has things under control especially when it comes to bracks it having essentially now standing at a point of a potential no deal cracks it having so know lots of division inside the u.k. and of course essentially having created basically a civil war inside her own country may was trying to show that she can still fix

things however before her speech she was dealt quite a shock blow when a letter of no confidence has been sent by a tory m.p. going public with him essentially calling for her to go let's see what that letter said. the comes a point the loyalty is not the right way forward we need a strong leader someone who believes and brags that and some want to do with the electorate voted for the brown minister seems incapable of doing this well fifteen percent of tory m.p.'s or forty people would have to send in similar letters for any such thing to be considered however this still of course added fuel to the fire especially given that earlier we saw to reserve maize a former defiant foreign secretary boris johnson take to the stage as well and essentially trashing her approach to brecht's it's amidst standing ovations and earlier in september a leaked tory party memo had suggested that theresa may would be forced to step

down as soon as made twenty one thousand and even provided a list of possible contenders so what with all of this discontent going on inside her own party at these quite uncertain times about how things will move forward there's a big question of whether or not it's really the time for humorous down says. well in her speech to conference prime minister may insisted that she will see out her so-called checkers plan on breakfast and rebuffed the idea of a second referendum joe so outlined a new strategy for battling cancer and said fuel duty freeze will be part of the government's next budget euro m.p. gerard batten from the u.k. independence party thinks to reason these words won't mean action. or listen to the streets to die and it's what she does best really which is a lot of rhetoric find words which don't really amount to anything certainly don't translate into actions i think she's going to carry on on the same course which is to in effect completely ineffectually negotiate with the she was

a remainer up until the day of the referendum and then after the referendum she gets intrusted with the most important job in british politics you know for the last two generations which is to get us out of the years why would you believe anything she says you can only judge your own results and so far they haven't been any result she talks about seeking respect from the e.u. that's the other thing well why would they respect you if you're not actually telling them what it is that you intend to do and you keep on asking how do we leave can we have this come have a little bit respect somebody like that. donald trump has claimed that the saudi monarch wouldn't last two weeks if it wasn't for the u.s. military the u.s. president's fiery assessment came at a campaign rally in the u.s. state of mississippi but he didn't give any specifics about a conversation that he'd have with the saudi king in which he was referencing. we project saudi arabia would you say the rich. and i love the king solomon but i said . we're protecting you you might not be there for two weeks without us you have to

pay for your village well it seems like he's implicitly calling on saudi arabia to pay its own defense expenses and this isn't even the first time he's done this he's asked the same of japan and south korea both of which are nato allies but between the arms deals and pulling out of the iran deal it's clear that the u.s. considers saudi arabia a major ally and if you remember trying to first foreign trip was to saudi arabia about a year ago but now trumps latest comments show that there could be some growing contention between the two on top of that trump's been trying to get saudi arabia one of the leading opec countries and the rest of opec to lower gas prices and trump's no fan of opec and he made that pretty clear at the u.n. let's quickly check out what he had to say opec. and opec nations are as usual ripping off the rest of the world we defended many of these nations for nothing. and then they take advantage of us by giving us high oil prices

not good. but some have said that this is trump's way of securing his party's control in congress rather than out of genuine concern over gas prices now his intentions have not been yet made clear but i wouldn't hold my breath. sometimes arm twisting and it's possible influence on oil prices it's a topic for president but they may have putin's been addressing this wednesday speaking at a major energy forum in moscow he suggested in no uncertain terms that the american president's got no one but himself to blame for the recent spike in oil prices but it was a good we had a very nice meeting with the american president in helsinki if we had touched on the subject of oil price and influence that i would have told him if you want to find the main culprit for the oil price hike don't you just have to take a look in the mirror it's true geopolitics do play a role in oil price hikes that's a fact well you just heard some direct comments that the president made earlier

today but the global energy market or who is to blame for the current high oil prices or not the only issue is the president was asked to comment on he also gave quite a strong a remark on the script all case the president lambasted the former double agent as trader and also added that the whole case has been blown out of proportion i was saying that the sooner the media noise around the screwball case and the better of the systems regarding the script our case this spy scandal is being artificially kindled have seen some media outlets go as far as calling mr script probably human rights activist in france he's just a spy a traitor. he's scum that's all he is and the whole information campaign has been launched surrounding this case i think it will come to an end one day and i hope so and the sooner the better so while the russian president has been on the move this wednesday after attending an international forum in moscow he is expected here in

st petersburg to hold talks with the also. it's going to be there a horse the meeting in a year both leaders are expected to try to point out pressing international issues including again the our global energy market the situation in syria so we'll see what comes out of this meeting. in a historic move north and south korean soldiers have begun removing landmines from the demilitarized zone which is separate to the two nations for more than half a century the buffer zone runs for two hundred forty eight kilometers and was created at the end of the korean war in one hundred fifty three it's believed these are some of the first pictures we're about to show you now of the operation in action around two million mines are thought to be scott to between the border fences which are guarded by hundreds of thousands of troops the agreement to clear the mines and destroy guard posts was agreed last month after the two leaders met in pyongyang. during that summit north korea agreed to demolish its nuclear

facilities and test sites and accepted international inspections both nations agreed to eliminate so-called war dangerous and set up a peace sign on their shared border the leaders pledged to connect railways and roads between the two countries and how families divided by the korean war to meet once again they also vowed to make a joint bid for the twenty thirty two summer olympics. is reality t.v. affecting the real issues that we face one head teacher in the u.k. says a popular dating show is undermining a major campaign sparked by a hollywood scandal we'll be discussing that live after the break.

what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. wanted. to be close it's like the three in the morning can't be good. interested always in the waters in the. first six.

welcome back first it was the presidential election and that alleged assault on american democracy now russian trolls are up to something even more sinister they've hit a galaxy not so far far away apparently targeting hollywood and the star wars franchise is it a trend with the details. hey america they stole the euro like sion hey britain they stole your dream of a united europe democracy will never be the same because of russian memes trawls bots well surely there is something still sacred in western culture off limits to the russians. oh no the kremlin folks even got their hands on star wars russian trolls weaponized star wars criticism as an instrument of information warfare with the

purpose or to reels in appropriate materials and so for some of the fraudulent activity that we're looking at today those are areas which aren't actually front and center in terms of the right business and therefore there's been less results put into these areas in terms of making the algorithms more sophisticated what we need to see is google and facebook and others stepping up and actually improving those algorithms otherwise they're going to face some fairly draconian regulation. to germany now where the daughter of a right wing politician has been disqualified from a poetry contest after reading out an anti migrant poet has the verse.

what you just heard was part of a poetry competition that was organized in southwest germany by a council as part of an anti racism initiative the entry you heard was by the fourteen year old daughter of a right wing german politician her controversial. entry provoked this reaction in the hall it was a it was well despite that reaction she was disqualified from the competition in fact there were boos when a different winner was announced there has been backlash though her mother the alternative for germany m.p. nicola has said that their house had been dogged in spray painted with nazi slurs this type of reaction to a teenager's poetry isn't surprising in germany right now the political divide in the country hasn't been this prominent in recent times in fact we've seen

a number of right wing demonstrations across the country that were really sparked into existence following the stabbing to death of a thirty five year old german man in the city of came that the two main suspects in custody a two asylum applicants one from iraq and one from syria were was was i was and all of this has played into the hands of the anti migrant alternative for germany party when they entered parliament just over a year ago in twenty seventeen with just less than thirteen percent of the vote they weren't really expected to build on the too much sense that we've just had tectonic shifts and after quake it looks like the c.d.u. will be electing a chance at the last dramatically is it to put a loss no that country it's a break in our democracy for the first time in seventy years we have a nationalistic right wing populist party partially reflecting that see ideology in

parliament it is no surprise that is de has grown stronger the shock for everyone is how much stronger it has become fast forward to now when the polls show that almost one in five germans is on site with alternative for germany the most recent poll showing. they would take over eighteen percent of the vote if an election with held today coming only second to the union of the c.d.u. and c.s.u. headed up by angle of merkel dissatisfaction with angola merkel's government is reasonably high here in germany but what these recent polls show is that if an election was to be held tomorrow well the chancellor wouldn't have enough votes to put together the current coalition government in a considerable minority among the german population has lost its trust into the christian democratic union into the social democratic party end of the established politics and media system voting for that if he is mostly or even completely an

emotionally driven voting those who vote for the a of d. simply want to be clear we have lost trust in the political parties we want to punish them and the most severe punishment for the political establishment is looking for the a.f.p. and this is how the things are going on in germany right now. ok we had hoped to discuss with relationships expert on inequality experts about the comments of a british headmistress turned her fury against a reality dating show saying it's incompatible with trying to support harassment campaigns or anti housman campaigns we can bring into this hour but we're on to it and we will discuss it in the coming hours that's it for now though i'll have you next r.t. world news update in just over thirty minutes so you don't. accept the story. for the whole of the.
