9:02 pm
elections and insensitive political hundred that's what medical care in jail expands in essex have been left fuming ofter a pro trump republican candidate for the senate for the state of illinois used a photograph of j. wick sands on his social media feed as an anti advertisement so the caption next to the photograph read only you can stop this from becoming a reality but the problem is the picture wasn't quite reality the image of jay wick sounds that he used was taken several years ago and since then the local authorities have made quite a few improvements to the local area so the miracles they're all rather cross country to try to pocket america are and then you come to a cover of i'm walking by and you see the different plane. when it is in america we don't need him or for there right now i was iraq and everything america are we here is just let's say we could arrive a bit when come in use an old farmer of africa somewhere and say look your town's
9:03 pm
going to look like this is the bad news sells good news it doesn't. and that's not only should we used our values are going to put a good picture on it we got a bit of hostility with the camera down there is it kind of is it is do you guys feel a bit kind of burned by the negative press attention that you guys have had yes because it's a really show that happened way before yeah now when you want to come study would say become a sticks in people's faces yes just you know we would you know people don't like it they don't like it or the offending advice has. now been removed and dr nick stella's spokesperson has issued an apology or call for an apology our intent was never to smear to town and to photo known to us as j. week sands in essex we never used a name for us it was an example of a town overburdened by poor governance which is exactly what we in our district are seeking to provide at every level back in two thousand and ten and two thousand and
9:04 pm
fifteen the government named the area as the most deprived in england in fact i was here to report on it at the time the time was thought up as a holiday resort for city dwellers back in the one nine hundred twenty s. these are all meant to be summer houses but because rents were so cheap people started living here all year round some parts of the town like tarmac roads street lighting or even pavements lost to shops that we have been boarded up unemployment is rife in the town in fact sixty two percent of the people that live head to pend on welfare payments. on the town isn't exactly a luxury seaside resort it is still a deprived area and even the local authorities have been keen to stress that they have invested in new roads and new drainage systems it could use more money
9:05 pm
there is some hesitation when you talk to the locals as well they don't want to talk to the cameras they've been burned before by bad press and they're keen to turn the image of the town around some concede that they could definitely use more investment but it's not up to politicians in america to judge their hometown one interesting suggestion came from the director of a documentary about jay which she said that dr nick stella should come over here and she could show him around the town and so he can see for himself all the improvements that have been made i do. in the sense that the locals there would have one would say things to say to him. russia's space agency says a damaged sensor was responsible for responsible for an aborted soyuz rocket launch three weeks ago the two man crew was forced to eject and both the american and russian onboard were unharmed the agency released a video from an onboard camera which shows the rocket failure just two minutes into
9:06 pm
the flight. the crew on their way to the international space station artie's my financial has more on the aborted space flight. it was an absolutely shocking news back then the first failure of this kind in the last thirty five years shortly after the incident a special high rent in commission was formed to investigate what went wrong with the c u's launch last month and today we're heard there burdick a sensor that is supposed to detect there a separation of the rocket stages a metal detail that big is to blame for the incident pictures were also released today showing that this detail was visibly deformed and it may sound like
9:07 pm
a technical failure but the commission concluded that the different nation happened of the time when the rocket was assembled and as we know it is done always manually so as one of the members of the commission told me answering my question this tragedy has a name and a last name is us free from its law enforcement agencies are investigating the matter i would prefer not to discuss that here we are investigating the technical aspect of the mouth function but of course someone is always responsible for the different mission of the center caused the peroration issues and eventually the rockets stagers bumped into each other and it's crippled the rocket and this is when they merge into system reacted automatically by suppurating the crew capsule this is a short to be doing is showing what exactly happened. a
9:08 pm
russian cosmonaut and an american astronaut the crew members of that flight came back safely to earth in that capsule and they are in good condition and their
9:09 pm
health was going to fact and as we hear from russia's space agency was also missed their flight is shaping for next spring so approximately next march they will fly to the international space station but even before that there will be another manned flight from baikonur that is shed yule for december third. funerals have been held in gaza for three boys are killed in an israeli bombing raid the children between the ages of twelve and fourteen were hit by an airstrike last sunday in southwest gaza relatives of the victims say the boys were setting nets to catch birds when they were killed but the israeli army says the youngsters had approached the border security fence and appeared to be placing bombs. troops spotted a squad of three suspects approaching the border under the cover of dong this in a crouched and suspicious manner the three operates in a way that was identical to previous incidents in which terror operatives had
9:10 pm
placed explosive devices in the same location. we've got reaction from different sides on this latest incident in gaza to take three young boys who unfortunately were killed but they were clearly approaching an open fire zone that had been established by hamas six months ago families and close associates of those victims the children victims of two media outlets that there were children were doing a routine work over a teen activity simply putting traps for bait for bears so if i was a parent i wouldn't let my child anywhere near that border fence and the only reason that they were near that hostile border fence is to either cut the fence or plant explosives or kill or kidnap israelis it's the only reason there is no other logical reason for them to be there the israelis always declaimed the. targets he really ns well in fact many cv indians have been victims for israeli army actions
9:11 pm
throughout the region the i.d.f. the israel defense force is the only army in the middle east and i would argue one of the only our music the only army in the world that has multiple layers of confirmation before it issues open fire orders on anybody the latest incident in which a three policy that children were killed in the. was part of the of this repeated this story by the israeli army terms of the buffer zone israel has been electing the buffalos on this comes actually against the well of the people who lead in this these areas especially the farming community. western sports officials and athletes have criticised the world anti-doping agencies decision to reinstate russia earlier this year they made some emotional pleas to the organization during a meeting in the white house parties like so you know show has a story. not every day you would see tears shed inside the white house but that was the case with the emergency summit of several national anti-doping agencies which
9:12 pm
actually look like a on the ground meeting of rogue revolutionaries in this case the u.s. anti-doping agency the u.k. anti-doping agency a bunch of very famous athletes convene at the white house to discuss why does the recent decision to reinstate the russian anti-doping agency in its rights and to talk about the future of clean sport interestingly enough but the world anti-doping agency claims it was not even invited to that meeting if water president athletes or others that were supportive of the decision had been invited they would have been able to bring perspective to the debate to explain why the decision to reinstate rosado was the right one for a clean sport the head of usada travis tygart denounced those accusations said that in fact the vice president of water was there but the overall language he was at that summit can give you a very clear idea of how toxic and political the fight against doping has become while his leadership along with the i.o.c. are increasingly isolated with athletes and public opinion they need to wake up and
9:13 pm
smell the coffee step out from their ivory tower because athletes are demanding change and change is coming the president of water sir craig reedie was having a symposium of it's own in london and he was asked the question whether there was any rift among the anti-doping watchdogs worldwide and he gave a very indefinite answer to that one government voted against the recommendation one. and one abstained. the people we hear from most often on a pretty selective group not of government of the pretty selective group of national and you tube and organisations and those receiving i didn't reach. now what does this select group have any leverage on the situation of course you would expect the head of the u.s. anti-doping agency to use trump's method some may say it's blackmail in this situation that's exactly what he did speaking about the budget u.s. contributes the biggest amount of money to what is annual budget more than two
9:14 pm
million dollars the u.k. about nine hundred thousand dollars and travis tygart hinted that this budget may be pulled so it's about three million dollars of thirty four annual money that water has in its possession now you may ask yourself what's the bone of contention here obviously the world anti-doping agency's decision to reinstate. its full rights as part of the world anti-doping family on september twentieth the headlines were vicious and there still are vicious some media are in total frenzy about that decision but the president of water craig really of the recipient of biggest criticism following that decision spoke about that about his decision in london today. how can you describe. do you find right publicly to the russian authorities i copied not lectured to all of my committee cian given shot just two conditions. resulting compliant and then we get a letter from russia. and the executive committee.
9:15 pm
commented on it and a member fifteenth water will gather for a big executive meeting in and they are there by johnny capital of baku and that's where we're expecting the fists will be flying high with sports and politics coming very close down the finish line. r.t. reporting from moscow. u.s. national security adviser john bolton has announced a new wave of sanctions against cuba nicaragua and venezuela during a speech in miami he described the three countries left wing governments as tyrannies. the troika of tyranny in this hemisphere cuba venezuela and nicaragua has finally met its match the press of regimes and ideologies forces of oppression to tallaght tarion ism and domination they worship a false we know their day of reckoning awaits a nicaraguan regime like venezuela and cuba will feel the full weight of america's
9:16 pm
robust sanctions regime we will no longer appease dictators and despots your are sure. during that speech john bolton went on to accuse the three south american countries of violating human rights then and described them as a cradle of communism sanctions have become a central foreign policy tool of the trumpet ministration earlier this week both and called for new tougher sanctions against china and iran from the u.s. it diplomat jim johnson believes the strategy could backfire on washington. i think sometimes people in washington especially in congress think of sanctions as something we can do that short of an act of war and i favor the position of former congressman ron paul who believes that sanctions are an act of war and they're all hostile actions the damage another country hurt their people sometimes result in the deaths of their people and it's morally legally politically wrong we're in the process of sanctioning almost everybody in the world that we don't like include the
9:17 pm
russians and the chinese and the venezuelans and the iranians and the syrians and so forth this is the way we deal with other countries and we're even threatening to sanction our own allies if they do business with russia for example cooperated with the building of nord stream to or if they buy energy from iran this is not a way to increase americans america's standing in the world and i think it will come it will come back to bite us so i think this will end up burning a lot of bridges not only with countries that we have problems with but even with our closest friends all right more news after a short break international. cut . i've been saying the numbers mean something they
9:18 pm
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 if you want to the ultra 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 bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar ai industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only numbers you need to remember is one one doesn't show you can't afford to miss the one and only. the talk of impending war around the world is on the increase the great powers speak openly on the need to prepare for a conflict what does this tell us if anything it appears to be a sign the global order they came into being optimists and the cold war has come to
9:19 pm
an end what is replacing it. the us secretary of state has voiced concern over turkey's increasingly closer relationship with russia speaking on a radio show might pump a zero cast doubt over whether turkey can continue as a member of nato after almost sixty seven years in the alliance. does there come a moment where turkey's future is in a donation as an ally comes into question. it would be unfortunate for nato it be unfortunate for the united states and i think even more unfortunate for the people of turkey if if that were to become the case we are hopeful that turkey and president will come to understand the u.s. is a better partner than iran and the direction that the president would want to go is
9:20 pm
to support deeper relationships with the united states and with europe and with nato. turkey's relationship with the u.s. and the rest of nato has been strained by a series of disputes they include u.s. support for kurdish forces in syria who are considered by turkey to be terrorists meanwhile turkey's recent efforts to coordinate with iran and russia in syria have angered washington u.s. still refuses to hand over dissident cleric. who turkey blames for an attempted coup in two thousand and sixteen and nato has been urging turkey to scrap the purchase of a russian anti-missile system. for more on this let's cross live to alice andro bruno who's a senior analyst at the lombardi thank you very much for being with us here on r.t. international. thank you for having me so let's get right to this my pump a zero he says it would be unfortunate if turkey were to leave nato so does that
9:21 pm
sound like it's even a real possibility. well it is a possibility because countries do have the option to leave. nevertheless i think that everyone is a very smooth player and very much of alien and he won't leave. because he can probably have more leverage over the united states by staying in nato that said he probably will also make it seem like turkey is ready to leave or test the united states because he knows better than anyone that it's much more important for turkey to be in nato than otherwise so the one who would lose the most unlike what mr bayle said is not the people of turkey rather it is the united states they would lose.
9:22 pm
the most fundamental country right now certainly terms of i think. certainly in terms of location turkey is right there in the middle of it all. about pumping his words i mean the kind of seem to have come out of nowhere do you think that they may have been intended as a bit of a warning for turkey to kind of hop in line. well that's certainly what it seems like and then again i don't think mr pope. really believes his own words there he knows more better than anyone right now that turkey has plenty of incentive to lead nato. and. if anything the warning is better placed to american authorities and it should be worded in such that americans are understand the turkey
9:23 pm
left. a lot. not only would they lose an hour like near the black sea and near the mediterranean but they would also imagine. iraq. with turkey. or rather. could pressure. turkey's position very clear. so. much. so we should be clear that president i don't want has never said that he was intending on leaving nato but let's kind of go down the rabbit hole if as it were if turkey were to leave the organization how would that affect the united states' influence
9:24 pm
in the middle east. well i mentioned already the kurdish problem. but number two i think. it was. even more. who is in some ways this model in others it's not because after mark from muslim brotherhood. but sort of reestablishing turkish middle east which means all the countries that are oriented towards. turkey will probably try to pull in its own. sphere of influence. recreate for. turkey. over the arabian peninsula which is after all in its geographic spear and it would also become very important for the. public's former soviet republics such as. georgia whether.
9:25 pm
it was simply it would be. number two number one number two it was also the reason for. over. turkey's membership it made a lot to do with its decision to buy. weapons. many other countries in nato even including power. with united states for leading it. fortunately i'm going to have to because we are running out of time. this is a subject i think that you and i could talk about for quite a long time as it is very important sounder bruno senior analyst at lombardi a lot of thanks for being on the scene r.t. international. thank you. recent decision to pull out of a nuclear missile treaty with russia has sparked
9:26 pm
a concern in europe last month the u.s. scrapped the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty with russia which had been in force for more than thirty years required both countries to eliminate their stockpiles of mid range ground based nuclear missiles meters across the european union condemned the move but political analyst mark macaulay believes europe has very little leverage over washington when it comes to defense. the european powers weak position. because the americans from your point of view. the european. to spend two percent or more. willing to do that. to do this because of their weak economic position. situation which is. just ability of the european union and many countries in europe so that. the european countries will increase defense spending which will cause americans
9:27 pm
and they would keep insisting that europe. and america. spend money just to defend. europe and eastern europe to the europeans to spend more and once they do that then the americans can come into some agreement. stay with us. the global economy. and through the. lot of money. look like something was going on there but now the transfusions of cash. start ticking up so now that. people are going to. elling out of stocks technology stocks housing stocks. semiconductor stocks yeah right they just like
9:28 pm
sell sell sell sell sell sell sell and then of course you could have market down twenty thirty forty fifty sixty percent. given the way in which the last terrorist attacks were proclaimed structured using european logistics you can see there's a certain desire to change the way of life change to society and for this. in twenty forty you know bloody revolution to the demonstrations going from being relatively peaceful political protests to be creasing the violent revolution is always spontaneous or is it you know lloyd i mean you know liz. schooling needle the former ukrainian president recalls the events of twenty four. those who took part in this today over five billion dollars to assist ukraine in these and other goals that will ensure a secure and prosperous and democratic. this
