u.s. president donald trump vows to punish saudi arabia for its alleged involvement in the disappearance of a dissident journalist but with business brains on in washington trump spent his stall on protecting the billions of dollars at stake when it comes to brianna as to whether or not we should stop one hundred ten billion dollars from being spent in this country knowing that they have two or five alternatives two very good alternatives that would not be acceptable to good. historic results could be about to shake the german state of bavaria and residents prepared to take to the polls on sunday with the alternative for germany party on the verge of breaking new ground in the country. and a recent study finds

a third of young americans are too unfair to serve in the army as a battle against obesity commences in the ranks of the u.s. military to promote a healthier lifestyle. a very warm welcome you watching r.t. international with me the key hour and our top story this hour the u.s. is treading carefully are the reports that riyadh is behind the disappearance of a dissident saudi journalist in turkey president instead donald trump has promised to punish saudi officials if their involvement is proven but stressed his desire to protect america's multi-billion dollar business with the gulf kingdom terrible the disgusting about that if that were the case so we're going to have to see we're going to get to the bottom of it and there will be severe punishment we don't like it we don't like it even a little bit. but as to whether or not we should stop one hundred ten billion

dollars from being spent in this country knowing they have four of five alternatives two very good alternatives that would not be acceptable to break. jamal khashoggi was last seen entering the saudi consulate in istanbul on october the second no one's heard from him since turkey has not officially accused riyadh of being involved but most of all reports claim its intelligence services have evidence that not only was he kidnapped but also tortured and killed now saudi arabia is still strongly denying any involvement despite the mounting pressure on it several reports have emerged that the u.s. reportedly knew of an alleged saudi plan to capture a news outlet citing intelligence intercepts are claiming the saudi crown prince all did an operation to lure and detain him some u.s. senators are calling to investigate his disappearance and a warning of consequences for ria if the reports are true but donald trump is

adamant he won't break the strong economic relations between washington and saudi arabia artie's callup more pronounceable. if you thought that the disappearance of a saudi journalist in turkey would hurt ties between riyadh and washington wrong military and diplomatic ties are closer than ever and donald trump recently spoke up about why that is i don't like the concept of stopping an investment of one hundred ten billion dollars into the united states. because you don't think it is they're going to take that money and spend it in russia or china or someplace else the media was pretty shaken by his honesty if the saudis are responsible and this is the bully that everyone elected to push around the world leaders said it would not be a good thing at all look at the messages he sent we don't mind dictatorship we have no interest in human rights in your country saudi has been

a client of the united states close relationship for a long time the administration and saudi arabia figure that they were so comfortable in their relationship with donald trump that they can give the green light time seems to be admitting that u.s. policy in the middle east is not really about some moral impulse to spread freedom or humanitarian concerns he seems to be admitting that it's about money and selling military hardware the human rights record of saudi arabia has remained the same for decades but that's never stopped u.s. presidents from swooning over the saudi royal family.

has a way of launching into truth tantrums unloading unspoken realities about international relations for example this is his take on the u.s. invasion of iraq old expression to the victor belong the spoils you remember. he always used to say keep the oil if we kept you and you probably wouldn't have isis because that's where they made the money in the first place so we should keep the oil but ok trump recently acknowledge that south korea is not completely sovereign in its actions like when south korea mulled over the possibility of easing relations with the north well they won't do it without or. they do nothing without a roof so to be clear donald trump is not changing u.s. foreign policy he loves the saudis he loves bossing south korea around and he is not talking about cutting the huge military budget however he's getting rid of a lot of the smoke and mirrors and telling things as they actually are caleb mop and r.t. new york we spoke to a political science professor in turkey who thinks the economic relations between

washington and riyadh won't change. trump is told to love you or he you know he's out to this as business when i think it affects a little bit the relationship between the united states and the golf club doesn't affect where well because the problem is that now americans want to do something against russia and iran and turkey in the middle east and they need. to be on the gulf countries and do you need some money despite i think it you know doesn't change anything just a little bit you know some serious. after that after a while but the repetition of saudi arabia because they you know americans are now those there said that the. moment you know. he tries to do something with you about this repetition or this in which will be destroyed totally if it's

a problem. american rapper kanye west has been showing his love for donald trump during talks in the oval office but west's closure of the actual comments and so-called lack of respect haven't sat well with many across america. and he's been a friend of mine for a long time it was something that i was how you made your life superbly made of superman our favorite superhero this guy we're going to discuss. i love this guy right here. ok i'm doing this for everybody who's watching us who turn their volume down you can pull it back up again that one if you think you. tell us is what happens when negroes don't read. and we have this now it's kind of a west is hardly a political philosopher and i've always believed an entertainer should. first

entertaining keep their politics separate from their hours. of before the white house did you also did smoke it up a little bit in the bathroom when you were there i was trying to get to you to say are you. sure so that's what the to think i. think. voters in germany's largest states will elect their next government

on sunday the polls are predicting that the right wing nationalist also does have a germany policy will answer the various parliaments for the first time and the issues that the has the details time is ticking away in the key german states of their various states election campaigns come to a close even the polls say it's time for him to take the system party tangling medical c.d.u. c.s.u. looks set to lose the dominance it held in bavaria since the second world war even taste and tradition is apparently losing its appeal. now the c.s.u. use launched major rallies in a desperate and final attempt to attract those. votes to swing out of the anglo-american compassionate micra stance is expected to various took in the second time as number of asylum seekers house and sixteen regions in the country at the

height of the migrant crisis. twenty thousand arrived at meaning. not everyone was happy about. it. yet leaving now the alternative to germany party or the f.d.a. is on the page of entering their very own parliament for the first time they even claiming that the ruling vivarium party is stealing the campaign thinking this is very well known among the journalists and also among the people to see is who is kind of copying our program but is losing massive losing the people we got the big part of like to write it this is the case then the count me high of those who are more conservative believing towards the end of day however those put off by the rhetoric leading towards the left will agree they're expected to come second with

twenty percent of the votes. c.s.u. will be history whatever the outcome one thing's for sure the vote in germany's most influential regional government could have implications in national politics and miracles of election many people. are specialists so this is going to be the end of the coalition and. we heard this already several times. and what we see is that everybody in the government is sticking on its chair and especially on the american saw i am not so sure. that the coalition fell apart. and they will try to stay on power as long as possible. and they released survey suggests that most europeans have major doubts about how well the e.u. is working really two thirds of the eleven thousand respondents said they weren't

sure that life would be worse. without the block the brussels based think tank behind the survey also found that forty nine percent consider the european union's irrelevant transparency is also an issue for citizens according to the research as well as frustration at leaders for not focusing on the issues people really care about that's not quite how the power brokers in brussels see it though the foreign policy chief said recently that the world wouldn't survive without the twenty eight day to union close your eyes and imagine for one moment the european union disappears from the global scene right now let us say for a month or week even for a few days the world will simply collapse the world is not in a good shape true but result the european union it will be in a much worse situation. brussels based journalist lucrative a think there's a noticeable divide between the leadership and its citizens the last story of

europeans with europe is coming to an end the people still feel europeans fine but it's second rates not very important and they don't realize that all directors all their own legislation in their own country comes from brussels through the direct is produced by the european commission and approved by the european parliament so it is a strange situation into which europe is very important for european citizens but they don't perceive it you know and they don't they prefer the national identity they keep their nationality day now want the borders back because they see that european borders don't function after four years of problems so that's the situation now and mrs morgan any can say whatever she she wants to say but she's not a hero for the europeans. america's most expensive fighter jets have been grounded after one of the aircraft crashed in south carolina apparently because of faulty fuel tubes the trillion dollar f. thirty five program which was almost two decades in the making has already been

heavily criticized for its huge cost and wage of flaws. the f. thirty five spent a dream to fly it's wonderful. the u.s. services and international partners have temporarily suspended after thirty five flight operations. the

enterprise conducts a fleet wide inspection of the fuel to within the engine it's known good fuel two are already installed in those aircraft will be returned to flight status. i am not. they say you are what you eat but the u.s. military is looking to change that the among the stories coming up after this very short break stay with us. except someone for who they are not what you want them to be this is the advice a therapist might give to a couple in a relationship crisis hit apply this wisdom to geopolitics and you'll see that trying to change the weakness of the other is the norm and geopolitical act. and

learn to fully accept each other. you cannot operate as united nations this is not just one run but un d.p. world health organization and in fact other international organizations like the international committee of the red cross you cannot work in a place like gaza with pragmatic cooperation with the locals or to switch on hamas in this case or has been for most of the last few years.

welcome back on the recruitment commercials give you an insight into the discipline loyalty and fitness required to make it in the u.s. army. but a recent studies found that standards are slipping in their recruitment poll around one third of american use wouldn't be accepted into the military because of obesity and unhealthy lifestyles the army is now warning anyone who wants to enlist to get fit in the u.s. army is pushing some fundamental changes marines that have already seen a rebound to meal times with healthier food being served up over the next two years the army has pledged to raise its fitness standards and make tests tougher in order to get recruits physically fit before hand it's promoting fitness education in schools and even starting programs to provide poor families with healthy food u.s.

defense on a list of lands gave us some suggestions about what else might help. in the united states of course the military is just a very small portion of the population and the president the government can't tell people what to eat so the army can sponsor health programs or whatever but i'm not sure that that's really going to help that much i think you probably need to work on the society itself as far as you know getting more exercise eating healthier foods etc and it's very difficult because there is so much fun stuff to eat that's not very good for you here in the united states. those ace failed launch of us through a spacecraft has exposed busy trying to find out what went wrong with the booster rocket meant to carry it into orbit but you're masochists a poll of the two astronauts on board has had space industry experts thinking the praises of the technology that propel them to safety. each and every soyuz

spacecraft is equipped with an emergency escape system that is designed to enable the creature safe escape in case of an emergency on board during blast off and the ascension phase the system has an evacuation capsule and powerful engines attached to it the engines are active fifteen minutes before launch if the flight gets out of control they propel the capsule away from the main body of the rocket that enables the troops to reach a safe distance in about four seconds parachutes then open to slow the capsules descent and ensure a safe landing this is the only system of its kind to this so deeply integrated in both the spacecraft and the launch vehicle the emergency system has been deployed eight times over the history of soyuz launch is three of them were manned missions and the crew survived every time. i get most difficult of course i want to thank the rescue was from those who designed this cape system thanks to them came back to earth i don't think it was a miracle i think it's professionalism i think it's optional technology test

crew and we're. many many years and also the actual human just looks the the emergency crews as you heard the if there would be to get there in time and i'm sure what was happening in the council was was very professional the soyuz is. you know the ground all round it it's been around forever here it has proven it so repeatedly. and i think it's probably wonder if not the safest human spacecraft in the world the head of the european space agency says if astronauts will continue to he's thought as well cause i think that the agency is ready to help in the ongoing investigation. there is no change of plans so we are looking forwards to not only using so use for the next us amounts but also for some of our economics so we do not see that there is

a change in plan for the most important thing is now to find out who caused it and i hope that this can be done quickly and then we go just on the current. parts to us course months that ego is ready to participate in the investigation because of course we're interested in getting all the information next time be you want to have another european astronaut at the middle of next year . things like scientists have been warning of the threat of climate change for ages but is anyone really listening in case you missed it with artie's polly boyko has some rather unique ideas on how to draw more attention to the problem. or the total . cost. of the u.k. it's a right the un are saying that they'll be a caster for something isn't done to keep global warming to below one point five

degrees they're saying unprecedented changes are needed now we're facing drought floods extreme heat poverty for hundreds of millions. but it's still carrying people constantly using evidence and a lifetime of expertise based on exhausted been there the results gathered in a decade and something so destruction of our planet was my mom's me here on the movie who began to sound a bit preaching to me are the wrong using about him as a mascot that was a good try but i see one in real life maybe like three times when i missed the moon and i would miss really tendons no one would. when we land warnings of a one point five degree rise against hans it takes a variously people in cold countries a thinking great global the keys i'm going to limit clients think it's roasting anyway what's the difference and then the other thing is well the scientists seem

really worried the politicians don't know and i know who i trust. the experts have told world leaders that they have a new rule and. again what kind of strategy is that appealing to the moral sense of politicians if you want people to actually give everything and everyone we know love and hold their will suffocate or drown you need to get creative problem one is that environmental only get it could hinder out of the deliveries and the ability to charge i don't want people that their great grandchildren mostafa will be called actions great grandchildren will suffer better yet tell the world that that peach tree of knowledge climate change maybe a little of us old by the weekend. whatever dante we love to hear your thoughts on all of all stories they do get in touch by following us on social media and leaving

all your comments that we'll be back in thirty minutes with the latest see them. on the you know more of the world. on the world. tour. oh good. luck. all your money go to. the move for your. just manufactured to sentenced him to public will. when the room in clusters protect them so. when the final merry go round

lifts only one person. we can all middle of the room six moves. is. the way to the united states is dangerous for most of the illegal immigrants. who are grandmothers just as they would a simple i want to be gotten lost and i want to ask some just about what if many of them look for refuge in the so-called sentry sides of the refuse to share information about undocumented migrants with federal authorities best person asked bank of mom. policy to morrow i'll tell her that person i get i'm in a lot of class and i want that. to happen they have water they all choose to stay in the country with donald trump in the white house all over for the travels of

both of you what is the who beat up to the. affairs the struggles of many couples won't. kill the chance of putting food impulse fumbles for a few doubtful to a few the hope of the. this is a report i really miss madonna. just a child of the eighty's. so. yes she was big in the whole new york scene when you were. like post-punk and we were entering into the morbid disco era. keep standards pretty high you know low with donna summer in case you never told you before he was a go go dancer at around that time i know cindy lauper was a performer. was

a performer there i did some go go dancing on the bar. and i still have great legs you know never come to like this crypto springs and palm springs is predominately women they check out my legs i feel their stare thinking in their heads i wish i had legs like that you know and it's been said here here on international financial news and that's kind of in the headlines not you in particular but the financial media in general and we're still here at springs conference in palm springs the best crypto conference in the world and it's now official it's not just me that many people say that finance the media and a catastrophic breakdown in trust so this is the last article that john authors wrote for the financial times where he's gone and i think it's another publication now but he talked about. what it was like to be at the financial times in the during the financial crisis so. there was big backlash to it and this is

response to the backlash because in his original article where he revealed actually what happened and he was talking about the fact that he had a couple hundred thousand dollars in the bank when lehman brothers collapsed and he had all that cash because he had just sold his house in london and sold this property and he had a lot of cat. deposited in his bank account so that he as a financial journalist was very concerned because he was hearing a lot of the actual stories of what was going on but he waited ten years to tell this story when during the financial crisis he did not tell the story so he told the story of going to a local citibank in new york city where his his funds were deposited and they had across the street a chase bank and he was going to transfer one hundred thousand to the chase bank because just to have another because member at that time the deposit insurance was one hundred thousand dollars so you wrote we were in midtown manhattan surrounded by investment banking offices at citi i found

a long queue all well dressed wall streeters they were doing the same as me. pulling his cash next door chase was also full of anxious looking bankers once i reached a relationship officer who was great she told me that she and her opposite number at chase across the street had agreed a plan of action i need to open an account at another bank using below point she asked if i was married and had children and she opened an account for each of my children and trust in a joint account with me and my wife in just a few minutes i had quadrupled my deposit insurance coverage i was now exposed to uncle sam not citibank with a smile she told me she had been doing this all morning and that she and her friend across the street at chase had never ever experienced this until that week so here he was telling a story that ten years later i was at midtown manhattan where all that's were actually wall street is these days all i saw all these bankers who would who would know the true case they were also withdrawing hundreds of thousands of dollars from

banks in order to be protected we got attacked on twitter when you mention this because people are saying well why didn't you report this because this is a salient point this is the eyewitness to what was happening to the crisis and that the crisis was maybe more. dangerous than it was being recorded. his comeback is that well you know i didn't want to cause a panic and this is where journalism has completely failed in many regards because journalism had a fundamental break the seventy's we transition to gonzo journalism with hunter s. thompson in the new schools the new journalists and they rightly identified journalism as really immersive and there's more subjectivity then we were led to believe in the strict definition as presented by journalist journalism schools and that you need to let the audience you need to let people decide what is the irrelevant to them you don't need to filter he self censoring so john authors censor himself he believes he knew better he believes you do.
