of course today is not an easy day for the c.s.u. we didn't get a good result it was somewhat painful day for the german chancellor angela merkel's conservative allies in bavaria who are set to lose their majority in regional elections that is the right wing and the greens make historic gains also to come this hour now it's a donald trump's trade war appears to be backfiring with china's trade with us reaching a record high despite a repeated measures and a deadline for terror groups to withdraw from the demilitarized zone around series last rebel stronghold expires with jadis fighters staying put and france is facing a legal challenge over almost two hundred nuclear tests conducted in his overseas terror polynesia the archipelagos former president branding them crimes against

humanity. so that it's decided to go down really far away from frost. do it. why. why. are they welcome it's just going to pm here in moscow he watching r.t. international voters in the german state at the very have inflicted a heavy blow on chancellor merkel's key ally handing the christian social union its worst election result for decades the party is set to lose its absolute majority in the region's parliament meaning it will need a coalition partner with reports suggesting two this will likely be the third place for voters party meanwhile the greens almost doubled their share. and to parliament

for the first time following a hard fought campaign. of course today is not an easy day for the c.e.o. we didn't get a good result it was somewhat pain. and with that i could from the very his r.t. correspondent mr sethi. it was a bruising result in sunday's election with the angle

a medical system policy the c.s.u. who lost their absolute majority in terry a minister who heads up this e.s.e.a. and he's known for criticizing nichols open door policy which he thought would translate into votes of the c.s.u. some is suggesting he should resign but since the results he said that there are two sides to the coin is this it is not a good day for us christian social union this is a result we cannot be satisfied with true but it's also true that very in voters have given us a clear mandate to build a new complement for bavaria and we were three b.c. applied by his homeland today to a different war pre-war protracted trade war belaboring of china as the enemy trade war continues game on here a trade war between the united states and china is here it's real china is accusing the white house of launching the largest trade war in history from slops vicious

restrictions on beijing get its sales just grow so the biggest trade surplus with the. and ever in other words beijing has never sold so much stuff to the states while buying so relatively little in return america way tolls on china in january next month beijing only sells the more same off the fresh us fees in july august and september now panic after this month's record sales by beijing to america is transplant working or is he just talking the talk of china's market distortions. and the way they deal. cannot be tolerated china has been attempting to interfere in our upcoming twenty eight. election i've done a lot of business which china china china seas route china china from beijing also hold a nuclear option up the sleeve it owns over a trillion dollars of u.s. debt because that cash in something washington has a problem there are talks for

a g. trump summit next month where u.s. way out the chinese finger trap can be hammered out to then who'd a thunk it trump would make china great again. so what this means is that of course china has basically won the trade war in this in the first round and shows that of course the american consumers are the ones that are going to be are paying the highest prices for this and start hiring china certainly the u.s. has no position of strength going into these talks but china has done is continued interest size its exports to the u.s. american importers are rushing in very very fast the last two four years to get as much product and as possible before the tariffs. and china is pursuing other trade relationships to continue to cause or economy to grow so this is what this shows is

that the u.s. has completely failed. our deadline for terror groups to pull out of a buffer zone around syria's last rebel held stronghold his past with jihadist fighters staying put for more details now we're joined in the studio by goes down of eagle with this deadline now gone what are the chances that these jihadists moving well actually this is the biggest intrigue about this whole deal because today is the second deadline and today was the day when. all rebel factions who are in the northern province of idlib today they were supposed to make the biggest concessions of all they were supposed to withdraw troops from the twenty kilometer or still buffer zone in the province now one thing to understand about. it is a mess in a sense that there are so many groups that are controlling various pockets of the province and it is indeed one hell of a task to control and to see through their withdrawal of their compliance with the

deal what's not making things easier because for example the front of the most formidable force in the syrian province hours before the deadline here is what they had to say. we have not abandoned our choice of jihad and fighting towards implementing our blessed revolution. deal publicly like a couple of other groups more radical groups have done but like when you look at their statement it doesn't the look that they are ready to continue the fighting is that they are willing to keep on fighting the assad army and so it doesn't really look like compliance with the deal now this deadline was only one of the things wasn't agreed on by turkey and russia what with the other key points well the when other key point was to for the rebels for all the factions in libya to withdraw heavy arms from the buffer zone that was this was like a first step of silver and it was supposed to happen on the tenth so five days ago

and largely from what we've seen so far we haven't seen too many reports of violations of that so largely even despite some even despite groups denouncing the deal so far so good it seems that they're complying but one thing is to withdraw having weapons and another thing is to withdraw your own fighters essentially moving front lines closer to what they see as their home was their last stronghold and for turkey it is a defacto a gun to war of. the guarantor of the rebels complying with the deal it is again a very difficult task because not only there is a lot of groups to control it to see them complying with the deal but also sometimes groups say one thing and then do another and but so far russia has been saying that while turkey is doing its best to see the deal succeed it could lose two of the agreements are being fulfilled without turkish partners having the main

road they're actively fighting to get all groups to cooperate so ultimately today and the next following days will be key to understanding if the deal is on the way to being successful or whether of the groups all those various factions in adlib whether they will continue fighting. ok you go thanks for the update that she goes down if there. france is facing a lawsuit over three decades of nuclear tests conducted in the country's overseas territory of polynesia the island's former president says that the tests caused irreversible damage to locals branding them crimes against humanity however paris does deny the nearly two hundred atomic tests had any harmful impact on the archipelagos environment.

my friends. saw. started to. the skin coming off. they were sent. by plane by the army sent back thirty in the coffin. g.'s third murder in a society conscious that has led to the specter of sanctions sending the kingdom stock market plunging the us is also among the countries issuing warnings to the saudis striking a very different what was being said last year. we so i just direct agreements with the kingdom that will invest almost four hundred billion dollars. in our two

countries this landmark agreement includes the announcement of a one hundred ten billion dollars saudi funded defense purchase. i believe it's a largest order ever made it's four hundred fifty thousand jobs it's the best equipment in the world but if they don't buy it from us they're going to buy it from russia or they're going to buy it from china or they're going to buy it from other countries and i think that would be very foolish for country but there are other things we can do it will be very severe. was last seen entering the saudi consulate in istanbul on october the second no one there was heard from him since turkey is not officially a keys riyadh being involved with some reports declaring its intelligence services do you have evidence a soldier was tortured and killed saudi arabia strongly denies those accusations

though and its offer to help in the investigation let's get the thoughts now saudi analyst. he joins us he very welcome thanks for coming on if saudi involvement is really established do you think the u.s. will follow through on its threats of severe punishment. i really don't think. the great thing which is amazing the power of media that they miss in incident actually greater than september eleventh it's amazing but anyway what's happening now in the states and we have local sources over there and we have friends and politicians and ex governors nobody really cares about the saudi nationals missing in turkey what they care about is the pastor who came back from turkey and this is like one of the biggest victories out of this whole complication that happened that turkey has actually won and actually trump and the cabinet the congressman the governor has now opposite sides in this issue with this criminal

issue to gain some popularity and voices in the midterm election so really it's only framed in the media and the local american they're really occur less about who is jamal khashoggi a saudi citizen who's missing somewhere what they care about the pastor this is what's making the news in america we see this and presenting criticism from from the international community the sensitive leader has no problem negotiating with everybody talking about many issues like human rights or any viable issue that could benefit the world but what's are the idea can not take and the saudi people is actually somebody from the east or the west actually tell them what to do or give a false information of what's happening to what's happening right now we have two entities saudi arabia and turkey g twenty countries they know how to investigate let the investigation take its time take a space let's see what's the results let's benefit you know what saudi arabia wants whereas your mouth kushal gauges and those else will come and based on that the

world can go and do their speculation but what's happening is as a criminal case they publicize it and they're taking action so everybody knows about the f.i.a. which is the desert doll goes on in the desert like few companies actually pulled out but i don't understand how a company would pull out from a kid. that the criminal hasn't been convicted of the criminal was no i take it under investigation is the news that he will on american you know and so on american. hypothetically if sanctions are taken or action is taken against saudi arabia saudi arabia has said it will hit back what. you think it could potentially do that. one saudi arabia has many many many many cards to play many cards but the oil is not one of those cards because saudi arabia has believed that oil supplies and oil change and this is what the world want to hear this is all for the benefit of the whole for whole world and the whole economies and the people so those people that they have it's not connection to what their government actual oil

is out of the question but there's so many cards and there are so many contracts we could give to other countries there is so many political way that we put to other countries remember saudi arabia is the face of one point eight billion muslims it has a very strong islamic and arabic influence saudi arabia has the biggest reserve. so when any country with with with try to say you know what we're going to protect saudi arabia it's not about the protection of saudi arabia we know that since nixon and king faisal we know everybody wants to protect the oil there and saudi arabia since fifty years ago they know these scenarios and we have plans for this and that is how to counter back but definitely saudi arabia has a game and has cards that's great can play and i don't think really a sanction would be put on saudi arabia if nobody wants to sell us weapon the market to you great and more advance probably if we get. for example weapons from russia it will be more advanced than the one that actually is released

by the congress to be all what they allow so it's not for any benefit i think everybody should calm down not to politicize the this issue and let's get the investigation going this afternoon the the saudi government allowed the turkish investigators to go into the consulate and to check those talks about. and we're going to see this coming on the northern no one and let's solve the issue is this not anymore about jamal it's basically people are taking revenge and i hope turkey doesn't get by hijacked by the little tiny tiny country because the preparation of. that they know or something that we everybody doesn't know ok and just finally we did see the saudi stock market react and plunge on this nice to think there's any long lasting damage they think the it will bounce back. well if you look at it a week before the plunging of the stock market the american stock market took three or four hits then on last friday actually the stock market went up

a little bit this is a collection of both it's about the political news and this is a normal stock market that gets affected by what's political in the world and what affects how do you via and the performance of the down jones in the united states so yes it's a mix of both big businessmen actually they fear the politics behind it but i think it's going to recover and it's going to come back we have got time for just one more question just let's just press you on the saudi turkish relationship you said earlier you thought the two countries could see this one three you don't see any long lasting damage there either. what i think if there is anything out there. from the outcome of the turkish side of the relationship it's actually going to get stronger as nothing to do the benefit of turkey or to the benefit of saudi arabia actually to basically put have you had yeah we see two three different i do i on some of the issues but again the base of the corporation the people they can to me they should stick together so at least we're going to have

a better relation than probably a month ago there is more talks between the government there are going to be more cooperative regarding many issues but probably they wouldn't see eye to eye on many other issues until maybe something happens that we don't know ok we really appreciate your time softening thanks for coming on to r.t. that was our alley but i hate society amistad life from riyadh thank you. imus and has been repeatedly criticized by for poor working conditions at its warehouses with some employees now claiming their physical health has been seriously impacted as a result. i'm living out of my car thank you thank you amazon it's a broken me it's its i mean mentally and physically it's it's approaching me .
