all right broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow this is r.t. international i'm sean thomas we are glad to have you with us we start with breaking news this hour the u.s. is pulling out of a nuclear missile pact with russia the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty requires both countries to eliminate in their short and medium range atomic missiles president trump accused moscow of violating the deal. russia has violated the agreement they've been violating here for many years and i don't know why president obama didn't negotiate or pull out. and we're not going to let them violate a nuclear agreement and go out and do weapons and we're not allowed to we're the ones that have stayed in the agreement and we bonded the agreement but russia has not hung fortunately onto the agreement so we're going to terminate the agreement

we're going to pull out we're not only hearing donald trump say that the usa will hole out of the i.n.f. treaty but we're also hearing that there is plans to begin production of missiles that are not allowed now donald trump did say however if it is a green it can be reached they will scrap those plans for production let's review his additional comments unless russia comes to us and china comes to us and they all come to us and they say let's really get smart and let's none of us develop those weapons but if russia is doing it and of china's doing it and we're adhering to the agreement that some acceptable so we have a tremendous amount of money to play with the raw military seven hundred billion plus seven hundred sixteen billion this refers to the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty was signed in one thousand nine hundred eighty seven and it was viewed as a key moment it deescalating essentially ending the cold war the now the treaty essentially outlaws any nuclear missiles between the range of one thousand

kilometers and five thousand kilometers now repeatedly russia has been accused of violating the i.n.f. treaty now we have heard a response to russia's president vladimir putin says that if the usa does indeed up withdraw from the treaty and begin production it would be a very frank response from the russian of the fleet look at what putin is said he says and united see it with israel and if our american partners x. the agreement will give an immediate and reciprocal response we've complied with the agreement and will continue to do so as long as upon his do the same. now fifteen the united states scraps the treaty this will be paid for. the right standard operating procedure it was exhilarating to meet russia you think they did with the state department did you know that. i we're now joined live by u.s. politician and middle east analyst paul a hero to discuss this further paul thanks for being with us here on our team

international enduring the sound check we talked about how it's such an interesting night for news i mean the i.n.f. treaty was such an important step to ending the cold war arms race and now more than thirty years later the u.s. is pulling out how significant is this really well this is very significant this is just the latest in the trees that the president united states has been withdrawing from we had the paris climate accord we have the iran deal with china conference saying agreement. we had the trans-pacific partnership and now this it's hard to say whether or not president trump has some longer range negotiating strategy or if this is just his latest bit of impulsiveness it's really difficult to predict with this president so we have a lot of he said he said here in fact trump says russia has been violating the treaty and moscow has repeatedly accused the u.s. of failing to meet its obligations so who's really to blame here. well that's hard

to say after the iraq invasion of two thousand and three when the united states said that iraq was in violation of various un security council resolutions about having weapons of mass destruction in their country turns out that wasn't true of the united states unfortunately has lost a lot of credibility now if there is some type of evidence that russia has you know been violating the pact the treaty then the united states should produce that evidence on equivocally likewise russia should also produce the evidence that the united states is violating it what both should be doing is talking to each other unfortunately when you have someone willing to john bolton's national security adviser he's pushing us away from a lot of these actions treaty so it really is a complicated situation a lot of moving parts you bring up a good point john bolton is the hockey of hawks there if that's even a term but so president putin. recently gave his views on the risk of

a nuclear strike against russia let's take a listen to what he had to say the lesson is these beautician really ation is inevitable he will be destroyed and we victims of aggression we like will go to heaven and they will just drop dead all right clearly not being entirely serious there even though sometimes things can be lost in translation do you think that's a good sign that there's at least some joviality to this. hopefully cooler heads will prevail the evil russian president has said that he will not use anyone to clean weapons as a first rate capability and i would like to believe the united states you know the president would be talked out of doing such a thing even though during the campaign he said why can't we just use the new nuclear weapons eat didn't really fully grasp the consequence of such an action so hopefully as i said cooler heads will prevail. that trump has is famous for saying

one thing doing another and not really knowing a lot about any of it i would guess but trump he now says he wants a new version of the medium range missile treaty which would include china do you see that happening getting that third party involved. that's a tough one you know the president also said he wanted to renegotiate your audio he said he wanted to work on north korea changing its behavior these things haven't happened there's a lot of bluster coming out of this president and it's really hard to know what is truth and what is not true so the new york times has reported that he is wide or told mistruths since taking office in the thousands upon thousands of times so it's really difficult to say what is really something easy able to achieve or if he's just talking to top the president has been in recent days in recent weeks on the campaign trail and a lot of his rhetoric on the campaign trail is just aimed at energizing his base to

make sure they come out and vote for either a public and so they can maintain either house of the senate but that is not that it's not a very good way to speak when you have these high profile situations going on internationally so those have been watching trump have kind of seen a pattern here pulling out of treaties seems to be vets ongoing theme of the trump presidency should we expect more of the same. i would say so i'd say the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior and the past behavior trump has got away with a lot of these withdrawals from these various treaties from the trans-pacific partnership so paris time to court which joint conference of plan would remove the iran deal and now the. intermediate nuclear range missiles you the tree from eighty seven that's another one and i would expect that the president will continue to pull out of these this is the scary thing is he hasn't been putting

anything in their place that is very concerning because the united states is supposed to be taking the lead on a lot of these issues that affect the entire world and right now we're not we're not showing any leadership at all it is very concerning for a lot of us here united states all right paul one thing i you said i really do hope you're right that cooler heads will prevail thanks for helping us get our minds around this one must politician and middle east analyst appreciate it. gears now turkey has pledged to reveal the full details of a journalist's death inside the saudi consulate in istanbul ancora says jamal khashoggi it was murdered in early october but saudi arabia claims that he died in a fistfight and jack levin takes a closer look at the case and the global shock waves. for two weeks we were told to have left the saudi consulate unharmed only accusations and reports in turkey said otherwise but increased international pressure and around the clock media coverage

and riyadh change its narrative on friday saudi officials confirmed in part what the world already knew the journalist died on october the second and the consulate but the kingdom and namely the crown prince are innocent in all of this riyadh says the death was accidental the result of a quarrel between and quote suspects that escalated to a fist fight now those suspects then apparently work to cover up the murder and dispose of the body eight hundred saudi nationals have been arrested including two hiring king members in the gulf states and of course the investigation continues now this version of events fits rather nicely with a prediction donald trump made days ago sounds to me like this is. the explanation that those responsible acted without riyadh's knowledge or approval seems good enough for trump it's a very very serious i do do i think it's

a very important first step and it happened sooner than people thought it would happen his comments really shouldn't come as a surprise given the fact that trump has been extremely reluctant from the get go to squarely blame saudi arabia he also repeated a number of times that even if involvement was proven he wouldn't wish to sacrifice the billions of dollars worth of weapons sales to punish them saudi arabia has been a great ally but i would prefer that we don't you. can see the one hundred ten billion dollars worth of work they are ordering military equipment everybody in the world one of that order we got it and we got all of it every bit of it i don't like stopping massive amounts of money that's being poured into our country spending one hundred ten billion dollars on military what i don't think in this day create jobs like jobs and other. for this country as of yet no evidence has been released to support the saudi's version of events and much of the world isn't buying the new

narrative it's god it doesn't we're talking about the terrible events in saudi arabia was still nothing been clarified and where of course we demand to know what happened to be a good deal with it today we are calling the whole world on duty we want justice for jim all we want your balls murderers to be punished however we want punishment not only for the eighteen men but also for the authority that gave the orders the middle eastern actor of campaigns at amnesty international slammed the saudi story as untrustworthy all reporters without borders have called for constant and powerful pressure on riyadh to establish the truth and australia has now joined others and no longer attending an investment summit set for later this month in saudi arabia saying it wouldn't be appropriate given the circumstances even some u.s. lawmakers are making their skepticism of the report known in dissonance with the president stands now it's possible that without the massive international pressure campaign we've seen over the past two weeks the saudis would have stuck to their

original story now riyadh it will be hoping that it's then admission will be enough to appease the world and we all move on not sending a representative to the conference in saudi arabia is one thing it's symbolic it sends a message but actually cutting off arms sales and actually imposing tough sanctions and cutting off regulations that takes it to a higher level and i don't think you're going to see that you know you'll see some sanctions against individuals from the united states but you're not going to see complete shutdown of relations with the saudis. the series of bombings have killed at least twenty people at polling stations across afghanistan marking the country's parliamentary election journalist assault on the phase even as the details in kabul. it was quite tense day for afghan security because of provinces. they were

highly attacked and there have been. one thousand eight hundred security threats many of them have been prevented by afghan security forces two hundred and ninety two attacks carried out by militants across the country that killed dozens of people including civilians and police forces also afghan national army members the deadliest was in kabul as well as in north and battle on province in kabul a suicide bomber targeted at polling center in north part of the city and killed over a dozen people including police forces and more stuff the attacks were actually not very very big they were magnetic vom planted explosives especially a gate or nearby the polling stations and taliban did claim responsibility saying

that they have carried out all their four hundred attacks across the country and they have been saying that the afghan government is not an illegitimate government so they do not recognize the afghan government as a legitimate government that's why they claim that this is a puppet government and people should not. justify to empower the process that is according to the taleban is an american or a western process we still have to wait and see what will happen next because the election process has been extended by the independent election commission for the next day which is tomorrow people were hopeful. and they had a very big turnout early in the morning became an hour before the election started to but later after a couple of hours when there was

a delay there were several technically shows and the present self the. election. stuff were not visible. many hours and many polling stations dot's why. do you know during the large time we witnessed that many people actually went home. crimea is still trying to come to terms with a deadly mass shooting at a college the story and watch more after a short break you're watching our international. the grim reaper of the bond market has appeared. with the sky looking at the global

bond market he's got all. this up on apocalypse it's a tsunami that paper and it's. going to be the greatest collapse ever loved. i did the war planning for the principle force provider command in the united states military or for years i've worked on this region for years i do not understand this saudi arabia is the greatest state sponsor of terrorism in the world still today and yet we all here on that we lie when we say that we right blatantly lie when we say that moreover we. i know where the.

crimea is grieving for the twenty victims of a bombing and mass shooting at a technical college in the city of carriage but amid the pain stories have emerged of heroic quick thinking actions which prevented more deaths. courage is a quiet place a small seaside town kind of place where the neighborhoods everyone knows everyone it is one of the last places in the world where you would expect a school or college shooting or thought they did but some hatreds evidently buried too deep because i stalk you it's so common music very common tragedy our town is really small everyone knows each other the blast and the following rampage with catastrophic injury and killing dozens upon dozens.

of people sparking panic and histeria as teenagers and stuff fled for their lives. in that chaos heroes when they just just my friend manning feen was there he helped his friend corner who was injured in the blast he covered him to shield him from the bullets they're both in hospital now one has a shopping wound and winning team is paralyzed nobody knows whether he will be able to walk again but from the horrors of this massacre some good has emerged selflessness sacrifice courage and bravery teenagers barely older than children acted as few adults ever cool but it got the better of course if you're going to they were first he is students when this happened these guys were thrown rocks a good sign they were trying to distract him because behind his back there was

a group of kids mostly girls trying to escape so the boys decided to divert the suit is to turn some to help the girls these four boys are dead now which are. sitting. i sir girl i knew him on the wounded i tried to save her i carried her to the ambulance i left her there and went to help the others i saw a lot of people bleeding land on benches it was awful. about. immutability mines i saw a guy being attacked i try to help him but it was too late then i saw my friend something goes wrong with his locks you couldn't walk so i dragged him all the way to the fans as i knew. the shias now you will never know every accept heroism and kindness that took place last now in the confusion the adrenaline the modesty and in death but it wasn't just the students it was also bystanders volunteers and good samaritans. who said

i work nearby when i heard what happened i came here to help anyone i could see there were people without limbs just lying on the street everyone tried to help more so. to get more of. when the wounded began to overwhelm local clinics the medical students jumped in to help. them but when it happened we were at our medical college we were in class when a teacher stormed in and said they need people to help with the injured so we rushed to the hospital we had no time to even put our lab coats on we started to take people out of the ambulances for emergency help people just kept on coming for several hours it's fair to say that when the killer struck the staff the students were utterly unprepared it's also fair to say that no amount of readiness in the

world would prepare any sort of school for an explosion that size in the cafeteria or mania blitzing through the car doors but even stalled. confusion panic fear that with those set aside self-preservation in order to help others risking life and leave. once again even in acts of overwhelming evil there is space for good. syria is urging the u.n. to investigate u.s. led coalition airstrikes in that country reportedly killed dozens of civilians two bombing raids have hit villages in the province since thursday syrian media says sixty two people were killed and on wednesday u.s. jets reportedly hit an allied kurdish unit killing six fighters u.s.
