stressing the importance to the american economy deals with riyadh saudi arabia for the really great ally they've been one of the biggest investors maybe the biggest investor in the country. they are doing hundreds of billions of dollars worth of investments. ecuador now says it will no longer negotiate with you over the fate of wiki leaks founder julian assange. former president no tells all t. he feels his country is obliged to protect him. now. i know that. so he's not just. now. but i welcome sauti live from moscow with me. thanks for joining us this let's go

first off to that breaking news story the series of bomb scares against the leading political figures in the united states suspicious devices have been sent to the homes of former presidents barack obama and bill clinton along with his wife hillary packages have even been sent to the c.n.n. office in new york that something that was caught on c.c.t.v. footage. explosive devices have to have projectiles and that's an. excuse me that sounds like a fire alarm here we'll keep you posted on that they didn't tell. me and back you laid it but might not and as we got out you know i hear you and even. at that you wait you know that the secret service intercepted two postals sent explosives one was sent to the home of former us president barack obama in washington d.c. the other was sent to the home of bill and hillary clinton former u.s. president former democratic party presidential candidate in west chester new york

now both of those bombs were discovered by normal post office screening procedures we also now know that there has been a explosive device sent to cnn's headquarters in new york city this is located in columbus circle in the time warner building and a device a suspicious package containing a explosive device was sent to c.n.n. headquarters was directed to john brennan the former cia director it said john brennan care of c.n.n. john brennan actually does not work at c.n.n. he works at m s n b c but regardless the time warner building in manhattan has been evacuated so we're hearing different reports are reports that debbie wasserman schultz former chair of the democratic national committee that her office has been evacuated as well now there were rumors circulating that the white house had faced a similar attack that there had been a similar bomb scare sent to the white house however we now have the secret service coming forward and confirming that is not the case there has been no suspicious

package sent to the u.s. white house now on monday there was a suspicious package sent to george soros the wealthy billionaire who donates to democratic party linked activism he was targeted with an explosive device that was preemptively exploded by a bomb squad when he was far from his residence but we now have one huckabee sanders. the white house press secretary coming forward and condemning these attacks and saying that those who carry them out will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law we condemn the attempted violent attacks recently made against president obama president clinton secretary clinton and other public figures the sarah ricing acts are despicable and anyone responsible will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law now there has been an escalation of political violence in the united states in recent months in addition to days bomb scares there's been quite a few threats leveled against politicians there's increasingly been a lot of political confrontations in the united states now many politicians both

republicans and democrats are receiving very hostile threats from people who oppose them this is actually the wife of u.s. senator rand paul of kentucky and she describes how in response to threats that they've received she is actually forced to take an interesting security measure this is the wife of rand paul you know we've updated all of our security system that we put a loaded gun by my bad you know and when i'm home alone a lobbyist playing with so we understand that here in manhattan at this point there are you know anti-terrorism squads that are on the scene the situation is on standby people are nervous the c.n.n. building seems to be evacuated and at this point many suspect that because these devices are all very similar they all seem to be pipe bomb like explosives sent through the mail many suspect that they have the same origin though we're yet to hear from law enforcement about specifics about that they have not named any

suspects or anything to that effect was security forces on the universe the geisha no into you might be behind these packers you can go live now to new york city were officials all giving a press conference reassuring citizens and asking them to remain calm and take a listen a lot of you know the device. being sued tomorrow. has been identified and is be handled as we speak. was. was terrorism related right terrorism is an attempt to strike terror and attempt to strike fear. obviously these devices are an attempt to strike fear and terrorism they can mess that by the international these are all questions that would have to be handled by the investigation but yes it was

a terrorist attempt it was a terrorist attack. and as you said what's the intent to strike fear and when they strike fear they when that's when they are effective who controls that we control that we control that this is not the first time we have been through this we have been through this many many times literally as i mentioned before it goes back twenty five years to the first world trade center bombing this is new york it is part of who we are and part of our profile. so we refuse. to be intimidated we refuse to allow them to. make us afraid of going through our daily life we have the best law enforcement agencies were all working together we're all here

and we're going to go about their lives enjoying this beautiful city and state. and we're not going to let them win period kate you had a question of what you guys if there was anything. to come of the new york governor giving a press conference just off to build a plan. mehr of new york city also came out reassuring the public that efforts were underway to find out who's behind this and reassuring them to remain calm and vigilant as well all the man many have accused of orchestrating the murder of the saudi dissident journalist jamal khashoggi has made his first public comments on the issue the country's crown prince claimed it was a crime with no justification. crime was really painful to all saudis. and i believe it is painful to every human in the world it is a heinous crime that cannot be justified well turkey insists the journalist was

viciously murdered in a pre-planned operation european powers that are refusing to cancel multi-billion dollar arms sales to saudi arabia with the exception of germany which wants other countries to follow its example the french president however when asked about his intentions refused to answer the question. and i don't have to react to every single statement so i won't answer that question. if you are interested in the issues related to this event. but this is not suppressed. it's not a press conference of german chancellor. all that has nothing to do with this event nothing. nothing so i want let's get some context on that front is one of the biggest sellers of defense and on this equipment in the world and saudi arabia is one of its biggest clients despite the fact the president has tried to play down the trade relations between the two countries the figure is

don't lie between two thousand and eight and two thousand and seventeen deals with more than twelve billion dollars was struck between the two countries but it seems . to have a discussion about that nor a discussion about suspending possible deals between the two countries and that seems to be a similar thing that we're hearing in spain where they have said that they will not deal with saudi arabia with two billion dollars. by the previous government which correspond to the demands of international and national laws especially considering the un resolution and the head of the government now. legal security not permission to comply with international obligations and it may be well it seems that that's a similar view that's being taken by the canadians now they have deals with saudi arabia that are worth almost twelve billion dollars and the prime minister there

just said that he's more concerned about the cancellation fee which is around one billion dollars if they decide not to go ahead with that contract then role that the holding saudi arabia to account for the killing of that journalist it is only acceptable in thinkable that someone could have murdered a journalist on foreign soil like this i do not want to leave canadians holding a billion dollar bill because we're trying to move forward on doing the right thing seems not much also coming from beginning to that which is the second biggest supplier of arms to saudi arabia just behind me us with heels worth around fifteen billion dollars now the idea of sanctions it was a muted by the foreign secretary jeremy hunt but no clear indication of what those sanctions could be over whether they'll be applied when the prime minister to

resign may was questioned about the. prime minister's questions when she said she would speak to the king of saudi arabia the new concrete information whether they would be sanctions against the country it seems that they were germany is the only country it's going alone and putting its neck out in suspending and canceling these contracts this is. an opportunity for the western powers to make a change to do something that could actually beneficially politics and what the rest of the world's leaders are saying it's very bad where it's happening. barely mentioned by the way but this is all about. saying. what the regime is doing really we're not going to do anything about it and this is a time when the attacks on him and the war the saudis conducting is risking creating the biggest humanitarian crisis anywhere in the world since the second

world war and yet despite that donald trump treason. the french government the spanish government they're all prepared to continue and as a rule prepared to continue these arms it's really. despicable the saudis conducting this war they're not going to make a big deal about it i mean that's the harsh geo political reality of the situation the u.s. meanwhile remains the biggest exporter of arms to saudi arabia while condemning the cover up of murder donald trump stressed the economic importance of continued weapon sales to riyadh cover up was one of the worst in the history of coverups. saudi arabia is a bit of a really great ally they had one of the biggest investors maybe the biggest investor in our country. they are doing hundreds of billions of dollars worth of investments and you know so many jobs so many jobs thousands and thousands of jobs

they've been funding a lot of things. they could or says it will no longer negotiates with the u.k. over judean of songs who is currently holed up in its embassy in london it marks a sea change in ecuador's position when it comes to that we collect chief. ecuador has no responsibility to take any further steps we are not mr songes lawyers nor really representatives of the british government this is a matter to be resolved between science and great britain songes relations with the country have soured since the change of government last year the australian national assuming it could all for allegedly violating his human rights after the embassy imposed house rules for the whistleblower as a condition for partial access to the internet for my code or and president rafael correa has called his country's hireling of the case shameful. we gave asylum to. is. only asian but i don't overread.

you have to remember that no. science has. citizenship so it's not just this a look now. these rules are really a shame you know they try to him sound and they are human late so. my point because. these rules are really against human rights and they are trying to isolate. sanch and to push him to abandon our embassy songs has been holed up inside the embassy in london since twenty twelve when he was granted political asylum or if you leave the building he'll face arrest for breaking his bail conditions he was lower though fears he then be extradited to the united states in a letter to work always current leader in moreno lawmakers in washington demanded a song's behind it over to u.s.

authorities or face possible diplomatic fallout. we are very concerned we join a sanchez continued presence at your embassy in london and he's receipt of it could during citizenship last year it is clear the mr assad remains a dangerous criminal and a threat to global security and he should be brought to justice. we feel that it's very difficult for the united states to advance our bilateral relationship until mr assad has handed over to the proper earth or east they go to me he has to protect us according to our constitution but unfortunately because of the behavior of this government. absolutely cemented some methods to the american government that will be very difficult i think they want to turn over such an american government and they go to see this story now so. positive. of.

equality and justice also you don't have to move to forget that he has a very important. united nations. tell him who are meant to protect the ass is mandatory they have to protect us i wish. so you know back with more news right out of a short break here on earth international. player . 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 you long for the rich eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and one rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars ai industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember one one doesn't show you can't afford to miss the one and only. swat international letting a person has warned that the entire structure of international arms control is

being destroyed his comments come in response to u.s. plans to quit a key cold war era nuclear weapons treaty. in those days but. what we're concerned over the dissolution of the antiballistic missile treaty now the same thing can happen to the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty and the fate of the strategic goal. reduction treaty is also not clear if all of those destroyed nothing will remain in that area nothing will remain except an arms race. let's go live now to central moscow or to a correspond to you go figure it out some of that's caused quite a mix of reactions as in what else did president putin have to say about the treaties well done the russian president has somewhat confirmed what military experts have been warning for quite a while for now since the u.s. president warned that he wanted to leave the i.n.f. treaty because right now this document is viewed as a cornerstone of global stability i should say pretty much all over the world and

the united states do not see that way they believe at least according to trump's national security adviser john bolton just yesterday here in moscow he said well according to the united states the treaty is expendable they accused russia of violating it and they say that a lot more countries like for example china should be part of this right now a bilateral agreement between russia and the united states but according to gladden important this is something that europe has to rely on when it comes to security and this is has been echoed by many european countries to have a listen to how the russian president formulated it. so you will when it comes to europe the main question is if the us pulls out of the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty what will they do with these missiles if they bring them to europe we will have to have tip for tat measures and european countries should understand that they expose their territories to risk. just for those of you who missed out on

this story the end of treaties basically the document that was signed by by the united states and by you back then the soviet union and which basically applies a ban on all shorts and mid range and nuclear missiles and so those were the missiles that the soviet union used to intimidate europe so no wonder right now a lot of reaction has been pouring pouring out of the u. and overwhelmingly the bloc sees this treaty as key to its stability and according to russia's president vladimir putin russia will have to mirror anything the united states do were so if they pull out then world russia's obviously not a part of the truth to you anyway and if they begin bolstering their military might russia will have to respond and so that's why europe is feeling uneasy really and also according to russia's president there isn't much apparently that can be done

to stop the united states from abandoning the agreement apparently according to some documents according to the military to the u.s. military budget the united states have already budgeted in their withdrawal from the treaty by funding various research and everything that will allow them to increase their military might but still russia's president remains optimistic and he hopes to discuss this. with his american counterpart donald trump in november in paris indeed certainly a serious escalation at a time of already some tense relations goes down off there reporting from central moscow. that historic treaty as you go was just saying was signed back in one thousand nine hundred seventy between the then soviet union and the u.s. under the agreement all short and mid range nuclear and conventional missiles were eliminated that's apart from those launch that see we spoke earlier with the director of the stockholm international peace research into shoot down smith he

warns that the foundations of international arms controls will now have to be rebuilt. i think that what we're seeing is that an architecture of arms control that was put together around the end of the cold war that consisted of the i.n.f. treaty the conventional forces in europe treaty from capping numbers of heavy weapons non-nuclear weapons on both sides the presidential nuclear initiatives and the strategic arms reduction treaty building on foundations of the a.b.m. treaty that was an architecture which has given us peace and security on an unexpected mixture of all time for the last nearly three decades the a.b.m. treaty was abrogated by the us in two thousand and two russia effectively pulled out of the c.f.c. the conventional sources treaty in twenty six again now the u.s. is pulling out of the i.n.f. treaty and the strategic arms reduction treaty only last until twenty twenty one

and currently there are no talks to prolong it so the architecture as a whole is in serious difficulty and that's where we should be directing attention towards rebuilding those achievements so when you hear the u.s. say it will increase its nuclear capacity unless quote other countries come to their senses. to say that sort of is a double edged sword of threat but also say a sort of come on let's talk about this. i think it may be meant that way but i do think that only some of the countries in which that star acted will sir civil see the threatening side rather than they kind of the more the more peaceful side to it a number of countries across the world have already condemned the u.s. move including germany austria and france who spoke to former italian foreign minister franco frattini he warns that trumps the sit in poses a real danger. italy should be really concerned about the

possible to seizure and to be taken by president try on i.m.f. debt could be a decision their dream going instability and so service of a concert i hope that our prime minister will come third to president putin the italia concert about such as does he anyway there would be less that security there would be more instability there would be a vicious circle two wars more slowly for a show that seems no wardo today is already threatened by asking magic threats what exactly we don't need to have i would say that back. probably for a show common strategy that would be a step back very doubters not only italy should but also korea france

germany that this press obviously their concerns and they would say negative opinion about the possibility dead america will really think about ins and the same with us here and auti see you next hour for the latest global news updates. on this unique edition of crosstalk we review a new in very important book john mearsheimer the great delusion liberal dreams and international realities it's a real challenge. zia says harlan kentucky. voices
