it's. five pm here in moscow this hour with the usa is dropping the landmark nuclear arms treaty with russia president trump's hawkish national security advisor john bolton here in moscow for talks today. saudi arabia admitted just a journalist jamal khashoggi was murdered in the kingdom's consulate in istanbul but his international pressure grows washington nonetheless stopped short of repercussions for now anyway saying any talk of sanctions is mature. bubble toil and trouble is spelled nights in new york as a cover to which is before my head ritual on supreme court judge brett kavanaugh

that events met with protesters condemning the black magic. thing for me kevin thanks for watching out international live from moscow hope you stay with me for next thirty minutes for update and sort of this still trumps national security advisor john bolton is here in moscow for talks with russia's foreign minister his visit here to the russian capital comes after president trump announced he'll be taking the us out of a crucial nuclear arms treaty with russia while also vowing to develop new weapons that treaty was signed back in one thousand nine hundred seven between the then the soviet union and america under the agreement all shorter and mid range nuclear and conventional missiles will be eliminated apart from those that can be launched from the sea without me just couple of hours away now his r.t.c. goes down off with the latest. sergey lavrov russia's top diplomat is expected to

meet john bolton the national security adviser for the u.s. president donald trump but while the big debate is ongoing whether or not the american president is indeed making the right call well russia's top diplomat sergey lavrov at this morning's press conference here stressed that this could be indeed too early for any speculation have a lesson. in usual in regards to the u.s. position on the i.n.f. treaty i have yet to see the decision by the u.s. president i have only heard about his intentions as i have also seen some of the reactions to it that's been mixed some support others have urged the u.s. not to turn down the whole system of arms control both nuclear and conventional you put let's not speculate at this point as that would be counterproductive let's wait for official clarification if john bolton is ready to do so yes we are happy to hear it and we'll make our position clear based on

a clear statement that withdrawal procedure has so far not been activated russia's foreign minister has also stressed that moscow has been committed to the deal and has repeatedly called that it should stay in effect past its current twenty twenty one deadline but he also did add that if trump puts his money where his words are well then russia will respond with counter action and in fact reaction has been pouring from all over the globe the chinese have warned that trumps unilateral withdrawal from the deal will have indeed a multilateral effect and one thing to understand about this treaty is that critics view it as very one sided in favor of the united states just long story short is the russia's ability for quick military buildup impaired greatly under this treaty while washington's concessions well they are insignificant and that's why probably the former american ambassador to moscow has said that the biggest loser. if trump

pulls out of the deal america's european allies and indeed judging by what is coming from europe well they feel threatened the french president a mineral necron has called the i.n.f. treaty key to european stability and he wasn't the only one the announcement by the us that is going to withdraw from the i.m.f. accord is regrettable the i.n.f. agreement has been an important pillar of our european security architecture for thirty years for us in europe it's of great importance we call on the us to consider the possible consequences so indeed right now the only thing to do is to look forward to this meeting between that sergey lavrov and john bolton and whether or not heard john bolton's hawkish stance will stand here in moscow you know the european union the terms concerned that america's polo for the treaty will create more instability worldwide enough thought was echoed to buy russia's foreign affairs committee i spoke direct to constantine costa charges but earlier this afternoon. if the united states drops the agreement and then proceeds

with deploying. medium range missiles let's say in poland or in the baltic states that will definitely mean a completely new military threat towards russia because these missiles will be will have capacity of reaching russian areas far beyond the ural mountains and there is definitely substantial threat towards russian national security or they do not need any longer any agreements in the field of strategic armaments and intermedia missiles and all that stuff because then it would create equal opportunities equal circumstances for each party involved in a certain agreement and this is what they would not like to accept any longer they

are they are seeking the unilateral military advantage they want to be the only power in the world who takes decisions what is good in the waters bit who is guilty and who is innocent to judge and to punish other countries and for their they do not need these type of agreements unfortunately the treaty was signed over thirty years ago but tension surrounding it have been growing for several years already is a recap. just. the arms race is getting out of control. i'm with you we did not initiate this time of events as you know it was not we who pulled out of the antiballistic missile treaty russia has developed been developing stabilizing weapon systems for more than a decade in direct violation of its treaty obligations and look at the shit we are

in response to the threats that confronted us we're moving forward to modernize our nuclear arsenal and ensure their capabilities remain on matched we will never allow anybody to have anything even close to what we have to go with usually if our american partners the agreement will give an immediate and reciprocal response. russia has violated the agreement that they've been violating here for many years that i don't know why president obama didn't negotiate or pull out. that we're not going to let them violate a nuclear agreement they go out of their weapons and we're not allowed to wear the ones that have stayed in the agreement and we bonded to the agreement but russia is not unfortunately on to the agreement so we're going to terminate a break but we're going to pull out. 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 that and find other ways to get along better that don't involve voluntarily you know eliminating classes of weapons truck in the story next and another extraordinary development in the case that sling journalist saudi arabia's foreign minister says the outspoken columnist was murdered by a rogue operation at its consulate in istanbul and cold it a quote tremendous mistake of the washington isn't russia with any repercussions for now at least we did a caution of a brief. after weeks of denying it saudi arabia confirms jamal khashoggi was murdered inside its consul eight and estimable the vigils who did this to outside the scope of their authority obviously was

a tremendous mistake made and what compounded the mistake was the attempt to try to cover up that is unacceptable because from until these things unfortunately happen we want to make sure that those who are responsible are punished they vowed those responsible will be punished but will saudi arabia face anywhere precautions so do your abuse admission is a good first step but not enough it would be premature to comment on sanctions until we get further down the investigation doesn't look like it it's premature you might wonder why am murder a case of such as counting proportions isn't immediately punished remember this creep poisoning well here is the reaction that emerged just hours after the initial reports is highly likely that russia was responsible the two poles russia culpable culpable culpable for the attempted murder is kate is culpable quarrel is with putin is criminal and we think overwhelmingly that you likely that it was his decision and days later the diplomatic fallout was at

a level rarely seen before saying chanst expulsion of russian diplomats and more sanctions should be seen from time to time certain steps are being taken by the u.s. of the russia including sanctions on very contrived reasons without any evidence provided of russia allegedly using chemical weapons so there's no evidence what steps are being taken against russia and now we see a murder and it's you know steps are being taken we need to sort out our single approach to cases like these but washington chimed in so what's stopping them now. they are ordering military equipment everybody. in the world one of that order we got it and we are 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 and what the. thing is that created jobs like jobs and

others for this country while europe and even some american senators who believe arms sales and need to be stopped some of firstly we're outraged by this case we made it clear secondly there is an urgent need for details and those responsible are still not being held accountable and thirdly i agree with all those who say that arms exports which are already limited must not take place in current circumstances and fourthly further reaction should be internationally coronated i feel certain that the crown prince was involved in it 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 but trump is adamant it's a big first step it's only a first step but it's a big first but i would prefer that we don't use retribution cancelling one hundred ten billion dollars worth of work which means six hundred thousand jobs the turkish

president to promise assume reveal all the ugly truth on tuesday. 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 the question is will this finally be enough to trigger a reaction from the white house. political analysts and commentators has told me things are so the river is responsible and gets away with it it sets a dangerous precedent. we're going to see whether it's rogue on not clearly the basket or saudi arabia in turkey knew what was going on which by extension means that the government knew what was going on and the only reason that nothing's happening is because saudi arabia is currently the darling of the united states administration more specifically in the trumpet ministration the british government decided that it was russia that it doesn't is attack on the script policy immediately the fingers of the world are pointing at russia over here there is

actual evidence terrible evidence that there was malice of forethought in the killing of gitmo should be rolled or not rogue but there was malice and it was connected directly to the government and the problem is that this goes against humanity this goes against human rights and it's a very very bad precedent. u.k. prime minister treason may said to have a major update on bret's it late to monday should also expected to respond to strong criticism from m.p.'s a summer westminster have been questioning a future overall as pm it's not only those opposing brecht's it rounding on it but some believe supporters to artie said this is said choke in a report. indeed to mulch was times continue for british prime minister theresa made during what could be seen as the most crucial time off her prim premiership we have seen reports circulating for weeks now of a potential revolt brewing within the conservative party and speculation that she could be soon facing a no confidence vote has been running rampant all of this due to the huge

dissatisfaction with the way to receive me according to those who stand against her has been handling the breadstick negotiations and we do know that for any such no confidence vote to be triggered forty eight letters sent by conservative party members need to be addressed on this matter to the conservative party chairman and again rumors here in westminster have been running high that those who want the prime minister to go are just several letters away from reaching that number. this week the reason why you will find the trees drinking in the last chance saloon and the bad news for her is that the bar is already drawing she's fast running out of route if she cannot come out of the support of her cabinet upon the upon them more fundamental change will inevitably form i cannot continue to support an administration that cannot function in what could be seen as very vigorous damage control we know of course that theresa may published in opened this weekend where she tried to convince the british people that everything is alright and that she's

determined to get her promises delivered and we also know that later today she will be addressing the house of commons in attempts to calm some of those anxieties we'll see how efficient that is going to be and last but not least we have to of course keep in mind that this weekend we saw hundreds of thousands of people spill this anger from sort of behind closed doors including politicians but onto the streets where all of those people had come out to protest and demand a second brags that referendum something that recently has made clear over and over again would not be happening but the big question right now it seems is whether or not. risa me is going to be really around very much longer to continue to be able to make those decisions on behalf of the british people will keep an eye on what she has to say a bit later keep an eye on this to still the u.k. as well environmentalists in britain are up in arms off to fracking gets the green light once again is called lot of trouble for saying just go ahead will tell me if there are other cases of more ninety seconds of.

what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or some want to be rich. what's it like to be cross it's like that before three of them all can't be good. interested always in the waters about how. they should. seem wrong all wrong just don't call. me. just to say proud just to become educated and engaged equals betrayal.

when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. again so the same for the break anti fracking advocates in northwest england have been demonstrating at a site where a controversial gas extraction method fracking is set to resume on monday after a seven year nationwide ban. on. the site in lancashire is the first to be given the green light to restart operations that were suspended twenty eleven environmental cost companies of one of the dangerously they think earthquakes and tremors believed to be caused by the

drilling process involving for last year a number of activists were arrested during a peaceful demonstration we spoke to one of them. spent three weeks in prison for cracking protests we managed to shut down operations this fracking site every day of the month for a whole month of july last year it took me took them over a year to take me to call. for the action i did i did a piece production i climbed on top of a lorry that was it was delivering fracking equipment i stayed up all night nori for eighty four hours three and a half days to get there we stopped a convoy of seven lorries carrying the main training supports for the drilling rig it was a deterrent sentence and they were hoping that by putting activists in prison they would deter future direct action protests against the fracking industry well richard roberts there is one of three companies charge last september with public

nuisance offenses he was sentenced to sixteen months in jail for blocking access to a fracking site the trio were the first environmental activists to be jailed in the u.k. and was ninety years but a court of appeal now was found that the ruling was excessive. and replace the prison terms with conditional charges but there's more of a twist to this long running story meantime the judge who initially decided to jail the trio is facing questions him self over ties to the energy sector several members of his family reportedly work for an oil and gas corporation that prompted calls for the u.k. justice secretary to launch into an investigation into potentially what happened here richard roberts again says the energy lobby's reach goes well beyond this one case to. this state. is clearly facing an industry that nobody wants on communities around the u.k. every planning application that was pretty every local council around this country was rejected sometimes you know honestly always by

a large majority and now we have county councils such as lancashire. who have outright rejected the trucking industry and yet westminster's overturn that decision and impose industry on them bill and that's why when i was standing on top of a lonely so many cars were going past peeping in sopore they were waving out their window they sow to. keep it out me stay up there people stay out there for service you can ride with fifty x. or currently oil and gas executives in u.k. government and they have financial interests it's your gas will be the one it's. no where do we start with this next story well graveyard soil coffin nails in some revenge oil it seems to start with that's what a coven of witches in new york of used to place their hex on the u.s. supreme court judge brett kavanaugh this past weekend he was recently of course pointed to the lifetime position after facing those sexual misconduct allegations the event in turn was met with protesters condemning that sorcery while a catholic priest an exorcist attempted to counter the day by saying

a mass mopin was there to. so we're here in brooklyn where a group of pagan witches have gathered to place a hex on the newly confirmed supreme court justice brett kavanaugh now in the statement for the event ascension they said that black magic is a mechanism for exacting justice by women who have been wronged by men just like him now the ceremony is taking place in this occult book store behind me. now here in liberal brooklyn witchcraft wicca might just be considered be another hobby or fascination but in some parts of the country it's no laughing matter there are schools around the country where the harry potter books are forbidden from the school library because christian parents are offended by the witchcraft content and

there's been cases where satanists and wiccan practitioners have gone to court demanding their religious freedom needless to say tonight ceremony did not sit well with a number of trump supporters it is a scary time right now i mean there's a list of things going on now you've got witches that are placing a head on brett kavanaugh now a catholic priest who's been trained in rome as a bonafide exorcist says he will be conducting a mass to protect brett kavanaugh from the witches he says that witchcraft is not a matter of free speech conjuring up personified evil does not fall under free speech satanic cults often commit crimes they murder and sexually abuse everyone in their cult we decided to talk to some of the people attending the ceremony or gathered outside the bookstore and see how they feel about cursing kavanaugh do you think the ceremony tonight will actually impact brett kavanaugh no one night but it will make everybody feel like they have accomplished something and you know people

need to feel like they've accomplished something possibly could backfire and help brett kavanaugh easily yes i mean he. strategy times three now it's so tempting to be doing the looking well for guys but heck sometimes i'm hopeful. i don't want to die it is why i'm so. be paralyzed the rest of his life so we can talk or something so you're coming out to counter the the witch ceremony it's not an act countering is sincere in the love of god so we just want to say instead of like curses we want to achieve these blessings and we want to show to love of god because we're not about hate because that's what that's about we're showing that we're actually about love i encourage everyone to also go out and register to vote magic is one thing but you know. the polls are another so will brett kavanaugh us ten you're on the u.s. supreme court be impacted by tonight's ceremony or is he going to be protected by that catholic mass conducted by an exorcist or is this all just a bunch of silly superstition it means absolutely nothing well like with most spiritual matters there's no way to be absolutely sure but what we can be sure of

is that americans are increasingly becoming divided kaleb mopp and r.t. new york. martyrs of a nother matter now hindu worshipers in southern india are defying a court order to allow women into a major shrine on sunday a group of women tried to enter a temple in corella but they were blocked by crowds of religious conservatives in the midst of all this code has been a five day long prayer ritual at the site. i . as long as the temple is here we have to follow this tradition.

so we'll ensure that anybody who wants to go to the people will go without any obstruction nor stretchin will be tolerated by me nikko. she splashing out says i'm not a devotee i'm just here to do my job just let me go then she faces stone and that's when she is forced to return back. and give it. back that's going to be got took to the effect that sponsors. crush him or twenty four hours a day this is r.t. international if you want more stories like that check out our site dot com coming

up to twenty six minutes past five o'clock in the evening here in moscow so far this monday for now kevin zero in saying thanks for watching and have a great rest of the monday the review around the world. i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth he longs to the ultra rich eight point six percent market saw thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred trade per second per second and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar

a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need remember in one one business show you can't afford to miss the one and only. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guest on the all the politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. time after time so you want you're going on the run of the eva results from swiss multinational investment bank u.b.s. coming up on the show the woman who knew too much in person u.b.s. whistleblower stephanie gibeau on the lies and corruption of capitalism and do we

really need to be selling arms to the saudis to bomb in yemen we speak to the director of the new film the plant about workers fighting back against me a liberal government policy. plus the new orleans starved documentary and what you're going to do when the world's on fire on the battle scars of social plans and racism and violence from louisiana to london the first ahead of tomorrow's u.b.s. bank results joining me is the b.s. whistleblower stephanie chabot who fought a battle for her life after uncovering a trail of corruption at the investment bank her book whistleblowers the man and is out now stephanie i've got to ask you first of all how you change from being a luxury brand liaise or person at the bank and you turned into someone who was preventing u.b.s. from shredding documents and twenty you know it well high thing then you know you somehow have values and whatever your job might be one day you just decide not

to be come plates of things you discover because if i had known that my job as a p.r. person as a public relations person was to help friends clients to evade tax i would never had taken the position it's because i was asked to delete those documents that i asked. myself what could be wrong and i you know pulled a thread and they made bankers explain to me that indeed i was like you know like a spider in the middle of a big incredible world wide. world would. you make it sound so easy that but in the book you recall the psychological experiment the milgram syndrome so there are other workers maybe watching this who maybe work for blood or the big four ordered to go but as well you raise the subject of the milgram syndrome you might have to explain the experiment because

the violence that i have gone through because of what i have been facing somehow makes me what doctors call survivor i should not be here anymore because what i went through is somehow impossible to find when you are a single individual and namely because all the ones you trusted your colleagues your internal clients your management your company all are against you and obviously they are much more powerful because they are richer. well surrounded and they have the means to press where they can assess in age you psychology clearly so this milgram cinnamon is extremely interesting because it means that when colleagues in a company are being told by their boss to do something they're just too early because they had to do it or many of your friendship and.
