2:01 pm
silent journalist and we debate whether it comes to mind. we can scream and yell and be offended about everything what's being called complaining is actually political discourse you should i don't know but what the fill in the brain the way he put in jail i just call him for it in her sleep. it's nine o'clock here in moscow and you're watching all t international live from a studio with me. welcome to the program. u.s. iran it relations have suffered another downturn after donald trump and the renewal of also options against iran were lifted as part of the twenty fifteen nuclear deal to run his response it responded with claims that washington's past punitive measures made the islamic republic more self-sufficient on saturday iran announced
2:02 pm
it's making its own fighter jets for the first time the country's state media say they are one hundred percent iranian made and will be used for short support missions. after loud saying that sanctions would be reimposed starters twitter messages to resemble the tagline from game of thrones however this apparently didn't sit well with the network behind the hit series h.b.o. says it would rather its trademark wasn't a quote mis appropriated for political purposes the sanctions that will come back into force in just two days ecology reports what will happen on monday everything that was achieved under twenty fifteen iran nuclear deal will be no more piling on top of penalties imposed additionally by the trumpet ministration there were nineteen rounds of those these new sanctions will accelerate the highly successful effects of our sanctions that have already occurred the maximum pressure we imposed has caused the reality to drop dramatically ronnie's cabin is in disarray and the
2:03 pm
iranian people are raising their voices even louder against a corrupt and hypocritical regime a lot of diplomatic achievement has been torn down by this back in twenty fifty the so-called five plus one bloc of countries agreed to open global oil markets for iran's crude in exchange for to iran scrapping its nuclear program even though we run complied with all terms of the deal trump called a disastrous and pulled out unilaterally now with the final push the american leader has delivered while iran keeps abiding by all the demands of the twenty fifteen deal makes still. shipping finance banking you name it really the u.s. hopes to put a damper on all key sectors of iran's economy in total more than seven hundred entities including both individuals companies and even ships and their craft will be banned from doing any business with iran dr few exemptions here and there like
2:04 pm
the food or pharmaceutical industries but the list is not very long to be frank speaking of exemptions by the way the u.s. also seemed very concerned with the economic well being of its allies we want to achieve maximum pressure but we don't want to harm friends and allies you might assume bolton is talking about europe after all it likes to think of itself as america's biggest ally but apparently that's just not the case and trumps advised there was referring to asian and middle eastern countries we do know that the total of eight states will be exempt from having to cut their businesses their business ties with iran and reportedly there's not a single european country on that list instead it's allegedly india iraq and other nations from those parts of the world another concern washington wants to allay a collapse of oil markets amid fears that prices will just skyrocket if iran's oil pipe runs dry iran's oil exports have already fallen by some eight hundred thousand
2:05 pm
barrels per day while america has enjoyed a comparable increase in its crude exports so according to the u.s. not to worry they're happy to fill in the gap putting out additional oil there and exchange for an extra buck they harmed the u.a.e. in the have always been there for the for the libyan farming the uranium nation all along position that's why. there are on this nation's like russia. all against this move especially because this new round of sanctions by one. washington it doesn't have the u.n. support it doesn't have the support of even the united states' close allies like the europeans that have stated their opposition in defiance china turkey or russia and many others have defied the u.s. sanctions against iran and many are warry than washington that this could make
2:06 pm
these sharp tool or weapon blunt and make it you know take it off the menu even for future u.s. administrations if it goes ineffective. it seems that washington's european allies haven't fully supported its latest move is the described transmitters as regrettable brussels is vowing to support companies doing business with iran. it's not just iran feeling the pressure from u.s. restrictions fresh sanctions have been announced by america's national security adviser against cuba and venezuela john bolton said the two latin american states along with nicaragua constitute a troika of terrenate and does not cast off a pause stop line is just the latest in a time honored tradition of phrases designed to turn up the heat. the us government loves catch phrases short catchy and even easier to push through the
2:07 pm
press and to give them credit they aren't half bad were ignored makes a bomb of care the war on drugs the war on christmas alternative facts and this is huge and this new one is maybe even better this troika of tyranny this triangle of chair stretching from havana to caracas to managua is the cause of immense human suffering so here's the rub make triple coober nicaragua venezuela all three left leaning socialist states with anti american sentiment what a surprise by the way i reworded true tyranny into to radek triple so if i hear the state department stealing my phrase is going to be trouble but the home topic washington has a history of packaging nations into bite size so lurkers who can forget the axis of evil states like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil
2:08 pm
arming to threaten the peace of the world back then the bad guys were iran iraq and north korea and the term was so good that marketing genius john bull. than me the sequel that same year beyond the axis of evil there are other rogue states intent on acquiring weapons of mass destruction particularly biological weapons that included libya syria and cuba again congratulations for making it both into the axis of evil and the troika of tyranny and lots to look forward to more sanctions invasion maybe there are still spots open in the fall faction the villainess few and the atrocious assembly hugo of anna well they all have sort of socialist government stayed out also hugh the us line in latin america but this is
2:09 pm
still a stretch i mean they're not they're all poor countries relative to the united states and even if they were scheming in some sort of an alliance but it's nothing that would threaten the united states f.y.r. i.v. original axis of evil and beyond the axis of evil nominees were libya syria and iraq and all were either invaded by the us or torn apart and civil war with american troops coming in later but that's by the by what i can tell you is it isn't easy to come up with and market these little slogans for everyone you don't like which is why they have a generic term as a placeholder regimes the syrian regime aside and putin regimes kim jong il in is terror regime the regime of nicolas maduro and iran's regime so china russia iran and others regimes and everyone else that doesn't do is the us says on the other hand saudi arabia and duress and other family run and the prizes
2:10 pm
a governments government atari's governments saudi arabia and the u.a.e. their governments government under is government of qatar i mean nothing personal it's just politics you do is. the u.s. send you a good and you get a clean slate and a blind eye to what have a shenanigans you're up to but if you don't you're in trouble mr less case he had saddled with a dumb nickname conjured up by a board with access to a thesaurus and too much free time and even worse case scenario and they did so in case you were a put nomination make sure to look up for any parachuting u.s. troops primarily to sell these regimes as evil but it's a real oh it's a real problem we demonize other countries because then pressure builds well why aren't you doing something about it and so i mean we go down this road you could
2:11 pm
possibly have some military action against one or more of these countries simply because the rhetoric gets inflamed when you put labels on you know clever marketing way opposed to one countries together let's just lump all the evil in the world in one slogan and that's again what we're doing i think they're taking the pattern of the george w. bush administration. and using it again. meanwhile the un has voted overwhelmingly in support of lifting the us economic and finance currently placed on cuba it's the twenty seventh time the assembly has issued a call to end the restrictions america's envoy to the u.n. lashed out at the global body for adopting the resolution. once again we were reminded why so many people believe that faith in the united nations is often misplaced the brutal winds of the castro dictatorship denial of freedom and the
2:12 pm
denial of the most basic human rights for the cuban people the people of cuba are our neighbors and our friends and they are fellow children of god if we use this all the time as the word bandied around but these are democratically elected people as you've known it really struck flies in the face of a country that just demands having voter suppression whether it's immunize these these are popular governments with with participation voter participation percentage is that far outstrip the united states if you only have about a little over fifty percent now after a bottle bomb of the foot of the electorate that disappeared before the good citizen denies the speeding of elections in cuba it's like eighty percent of these banks are completely against the spirit of the foundation of the united nations charter they are via violations of the sovereignty of nations none of these countries have posed any threat whatsoever to the united states or to any other
2:13 pm

2:14 pm
to underestimate how susceptible you are. so you can make sure that you don't pull victim here is i see my my hand these guide on how to stop the russian influence campaign only if you need to russian any russian you've been tampered with it's pointless to even vote saying that search all media is the main battleground for russian influence for example if your attention is captured by a bright and mildly funny online video about politics presented by a girl with from toxic gas always find out who is signing the paychecks is. attention to detail if she does that anything positive you buy russians. i cannot stress this enough the influence can be subliminal voting republican will make you more attractive expert speculation suggests that russian interference on
2:15 pm
twitter that is actually really easy to spot if you come across extreme views questionable means old badly thought out opinions there probably from some within twenty fifteen and twenty seventeen an overwhelming one out of every twenty three thousand pieces of content it's just a taste just as it exists in russian trolls lom this is why vigilance is key. blink and you'll miss their own role models who can help to show the way like hillary clinton she could find russian interference in the slightest something one way also might leave we will only know how much russian interference has been once the results are announced if the democrats do well demo russia had no influence whatsoever but if the republicans do well well then break out the board because you're basically living in the united states of russia so as you prepare to vote in the more scary midterms they. want to get them quite

2:21 pm
i just choose to be offended by actual actions by things that actually matter things that actually do hurt people where there's real violence or real threat in a political environment like the one that we have no that is very violent characterized by tragedies by violence by racism xenophobia and what we are seeing in this outrage is that people find it unacceptable and are demanding a higher standard for how we should come together and represent ourselves as a culture i don't see the hate in all the more video that your other guest happens to see and i'm not saying that it doesn't exist out there in pockets certainly it doesn't certainly we should fight that but let's do it effectively and not worry about how people dress up we have to understand that politics comes in a range of forms it comes in elections and voting obviously comes in through the economy and who holds power of service to sions and it certainly comes in the culture as well what are you going to do are you going to pass
