not going to let them violate the nuclear agreement so we're going to terminate the agreement we're going to pull out president pledges to scrap a nuclear missile treaty with russia accusing it of violating the pact moscow says the move would harm security. in the stories that shaped the week friends and relatives say their final goodbyes for the twenty fifth to colleges shooting and bomb attack in crimea one of the worst such massacres and russia's history. plus saudi arabia claims a missing journalist died in a fistfight inside the country's consulate in istanbul turkey says it has proved it
11:01 pm
was murder. or broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow this is our team international john thomas and good to have you with us as we recap the week's top stories. all right donald trump's pledge to pull out of a nuclear missile bank between the u.s. and russia has drawn condemnation from germany foreign minister urge washington to reconsider the move. the announcement by the u.s. that is going to withdraw from the code is regrettable the agreement has been important pillar of our european security architecture for thirty years for us in europe it's of great importance we call on the u.s. to consider the possible consequences. he was referring to the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty which requires the u.s. and russia to eliminate their mid range ground based nuclear missiles russia has
11:02 pm
responded to trump statement of warning that pulling out of the deal could lead to retaliatory measures we condemn the attempts to get concessions from moscow by using blackmail especially over an issue that has value for both international and nuclear security as well as for maintaining world stability the nuclear arms treaty will be discussed in moscow on monday when u.s. national security advisor john bolton meets with russia's foreign minister appeared tranquil and kevin owen discussed what america's withdrawal could mean for the. mr bolton isn't the only critic of the deal america's doing it right and russia is not living up to the end of the bargain that's how christ and donald trump mr bolton's boss explained why he's saying the so-called i.m.f. treaty russia has violated the agreement they've been violating it for many years that i don't know why but you know let them violate the nuclear agreement and go out and do weapons and we're not allowed to wear that one set up state in the
11:03 pm
agreement and we bonded it but russia is not. the agreement so we're going to terminate the agreement we're going to although donald trump didn't specify what exactly russia was violating but in the previous years washington blamed russia for deploying what they called an illegal type of cruise missile and in general there are attempts to upgrade its nuclear arsenal now going back to the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty it was signed some thirty years ago and kevin that was the end of the cold war so that's why this particular agreement is closely associated with the relief everyone around the planet had when these things were happening and it pretty much outlawed nuclear and conventional missiles with ranges between five hundred kilometers and five thousand five hundred kilometers now this is why how much it's vital for the international community cannot be underestimated
11:04 pm
so it would seem to be a must have thirty years ago was changed today should there will be worried now this thing looks like is being scrapped kevin the concern is obvious a potential new round the arms race if you don't think that serious enough donald trump was already hinting that he's ready to kick start the production of such missiles something else that you might be worried about is the language that both sides have been using when talking about this the arms race is getting out of your . we did not snip this turn of events as you know it was not we just pulled out of the antiballistic missile treaty russia has developed been developing a stabilizing weapon systems for more than a decade in direct violation of its treaty obligations which was good because we respond to the threats that confronted us were moving forward to modernize our nuclear arsenal and ensure their capabilities were mean and we will never allow
11:05 pm
anybody to have anything even close to what we have used it for american people and the next. we will give an immediate and reciprocal response. well donald trump isn't really a stranger to saying no to these kind of international agreements you can remember the one climate change the iran nuclear deal but it's been widely thought that the reason donald trump is doing this in many cases this is just his own agenda or simply because these kind of arrangements were made by his predecessors so let's take a look at some of the comments donald trump made before about other deals i am announcing today that the united states will withdraw from the iran nuclear deal the transpacific partnership from the paris. climate accord with grow all the withdraw withdraw i am fighting every day for the great people
11:06 pm
of this country so as you were saying. to moscow tonight but all the important discussions with the senior russian officials are happening on monday. the u.k. has said it backs trump's decision to withdraw with of the british defense secretary claiming russia has breached the treaty former u.s. diplomat ted se believes europe needs to rethink its entire defense strategy. the security architecture of the european. writ large space is a very important thing and the problem is that security architecture is broken there shouldn't be a western front for russian security there shouldn't be an eastern front for european nato these things shouldn't exist at this point in the twenty first century we don't need this class of weapons why don't we just do away with it and find other ways to get along better that don't involve voluntarily you know
11:07 pm
eliminating classes of weapons. the leaders of the u.s. and turkey have spoken by phone about the death of a saudi journalist in istanbul presidents trump and. agreed on the urgent needed to get to the bottom of the case that was after the turkish leader promised to reveal proof that jamal khashoggi was murdered. what we are looking for justice here and this will be revealed in all its naked truth not through some ordinary steps but in all its naked truth. that saudi arabia claims that the journalist died in a fistfight in early october at the saudi consulate in istanbul but many countries have expressed doubt over that claim and the german chancellor angela merkel has said on sports to saudi arabia should be stopped at fault firstly we are outraged by this case we made it clear yesterday secondly there is no need for details and those responsible are still not being held accountable thirdly i agree with all
11:08 pm
those who say that experts which are already limited must not take place in the consequence times and fourthly further reactions should be internationally coordinated. along with it germany the governments of the u.k. and france have released a joint statement condemning the killing in the strongest possible terms they called for the investigation to be carried out thoroughly until responsibilities are clearly established and they stressed that no nation is outside international law meanwhile the saudi king and crown prince have expressed their condolences to the family of jamal khashoggi according to saudi state media both royals spoke to the late journalist son in a private phone call or to invoke it takes a closer look at how the case unfold. for two weeks we were told to malkuth had 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
11:09 pm
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 high ranking 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 rove. and 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
11:10 pm
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 equipment and or things that create jobs like jobs others. for this country in the stand the president except see it and that's the power of an the loaf one hundred ten billion dollars one hundred ten
11:11 pm
billion dollars can buy any troops can sell any lie you heard the radio that some of these team will be part of the fifteen people a thousand people will be punished by these saudi arabi i had made just to say i'm sure the president trump would just pull out to the sky and go for punishment and this kind of justice as of yet no evidence has been released to support the saudis version of events and much of the world isn't buying the new narrative it's god it was we're talking about the terrible events in saudi arabia where still nothing has been clarified and where of course we demand to know what happened. the emerging circumstances of his death a deeply troubling that for the european union like its partners insists on the need for continued thora credible and transparent investigation shutting proper clarity on the circumstance of the killing and ensuring full accountability of all those responsible for it the middle eastern actor of campaigns at amnesty
11:12 pm
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's stance i feel certain that the crown prince was involved or that he directed this and that's why i think we cannot continue to have relations with him i would cut off arms sales it's the only thing the saudis will listen to he's now crossed the line and there has to be a punishment and a price paid for that and we've got to suspend military sales we have to suspend certain security assistance and we ought to impose sanctions on any of those that were directly involved in this murder 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
11:13 pm
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'll see some sanctions against individuals from the united states but you're not going to see complete shutdown of relations with the saudis. this week abroad tragedy to crimea and southern. russia twenty people were killed and dozens more injured when a student at a college set off a homemade bomb and opened fire our correspondent but i've got to have has more on how the atrocity unfolds.
11:14 pm
it's 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. dressed in black and carrying a bag of ammo ladislav of the suspected shooter began to turn his plan for mass murder into reality. but the. first he detonated an improvised explosive device that almost. of our style of the neighborhood you filling up the community here is a deception so close. the book on the sit down one. on the pitch.

11:17 pm

to a country where jihadism is more accepted but not here strong place for him it's been said to me that the student in this country the reported cost of the security operation to have him be out of jail is said to be at a whopping two million pounds a year compared to the fifteen thousand pounds a year it would have cost to keep him in jail reaction to this was also very swift to follow it's crazy to put the public in danger and spend two million pounds a year monitoring extremist anjem choudary we could be following australia's lead to keep him locked up the extensive list of constraints on un jim choudhry is welcome that said the fact that he's being released at all and that's imposing these constraints will cost the taxpayer two million pounds per annum is a bore and those argue mother wise are almost as dangerous as here's the release of anjem choudary who claims some of those citizens are foreign it's in their own home is a threat to our security is betraying all of us and we need to defend all communities
