oh. god was. donald trump again lashes out of the french president after money. to reduce its dependence on washington also this hour. the b.b.c. sport i do appreciate your city combined with the long term what you do with the mask is a surrender to terrorists so the israeli defense minister resigns just a day after armed groups in gaza and else to cease fire following a deadly escalation of the conflict. this cancer patients in iran struggle to get life saving medication as the u.s.

sanctions take their toll. fly from the russian capital we are watching a international. president emanuel micron has doubled down on course for a combined military force in europe saying france cannot rely on america for defense in an interview he refused to respond to a series of mocking tweets from donald trump this is that. the united states of america is a historic ally and it will continue to be significant to be an ally is not to be a vast and we should not be dependent and therefore with regards the americans. we must do more ourselves and as your. let's take a look at some of those international headlines now the bromance is over this hour in the bromance of the saying that the friendship. but it's come to an end that's

what's being discussed in the international papers here in france if you take a look here this is le parisien it's basically saying that trump is making fun of my corn and that's something that's being discussed across the papers talking about those tweets which attacked french wine which attacked much popularity it's have a look at those tweets that trump made and see exactly what he said but it was germany and world wars one and two how did that work out for france they were starting to learn german in paris before the u.s. came along pay for nato not france makes it very hard for the u.s. to sell its wines into france and charges big tariffs not fair must change the problem is that emanuel suffers from a very low approval rating in france twenty six percent an unemployment rate of almost ten percent make france great again well for so long the two presidents had been having this beautiful romance that started here in paris just around

a year and a half ago hugs and kisses but it's all gone sour as a result of this interview that much corn gave. the that can defend itself without depending only on the united states in the way that exhibits greater sovereignty well it's not the first time that much corn has spoken out against trump's policies and being in stark disagreement with them remember when trump pulled out of the paris climate accord this is what mcconnell had to say back then there's a lot of guys i consider to mistake for the u.s. and its people and a mistake for the future. then of course who could forget the fact that trump pulled out of the year a new clear record something that really riled president. it was a little poser after the nine eleven. it. was

for the most part it seems that trump has let all of those criticisms slide but this one when it comes to the creation of an army well why is that will some experts are suggesting it comes down to one thing and one thing only money the idea that if a new in european army was created that could mean less cash in the pockets of the usa and donald trump as a businessman the idea of losing money is a kin to a capital offense he may also be unhappy that might cause and could incite others to join this revolt already we know that the german chancellor angela merkel has said she is fully behind this idea so this idea of castigating mcallen twitter could be just serving another purpose of trying to keep the troops in order. to oppress colonialist emanuel tamang believes mccrone has been outplayed by trump.

trump before to come to paris was. shocked and angry but the spark of these negotiating tactic. strong statements in order to make it spark nurse took a different position on each works on the following day the stock market just repeats what the average turns once from europe and you say really europeans should be spending more we didn't need to for our security he works for the united states once you've got french president who was not strong enough to keep his own position transatlantic tensions have a shadowing a major editing projects they were s. ambassador to brussels has said washington could block a gas pipeline project making russia to gemini. we have not deployed the full set of tools yet that could significantly undermine if not outright stop the project

addressing the european parliament's chancellor angela merkel said shutting down energy supplies from russia would be impossible with the gas we could see own comes through the north stream also ukraine or the turks stream the source is one of the same says russia and europe almost be able to make itself independent from russian gas but what it can do is diversify that sort of sounds meanwhile the u.s. is trying to expand to share their pain energy markets but financial genest told us american gas supplies uncompetitive. the american guest already a source with the l.a.p.d. liquid natural gas is far and spencer and there is really no need in excuse to the natural gas that we have got out of the natural gas transported here by our pipelines to germany you know you wrote rush up all it could do is they could

postpone it but they could never stop that americans are quite quite charming with this they say well you know of course we support all those who oppose this but you sought to get out of line but if you do it it's your whole you don't have to i mean it's natural that we don't want to do. the u.s. senate a secretary insists that cutting russian gas supplies would help european security he raised the issue on the physics to hungary russian federation. has historically use energy. as a coercive weapon we should no longer allow the kremlin to you enter as a weapon. the solution is a diversity of suppliers but there must be a path for that supply. even with the dependency on russia it is not a problem because russia has never in history not of course so it's it's all

relations it's cooperate so where should it be where should the spirit come from if there's a lot of money it is about business the u.s. . increasing or expanding their a natural gas industry and therefore they want to have. us they have not they don't know where to supply work to where to exploit the gas. israel's defense minister has resigned over the government's decision to accept a truce with militant groups in gaza the deal followed two days of terribly cross border asked trucks and rocket fire door liberman front of the cease fire a surrender. to the cease fire deal reached yesterday combined with the long term agreed with the mass is a surrender to terrorists there's no other word no other meaning but surrender to terrorism. the israelis living there garcia have spoken out against the ceasefire

accusing their governments of caving in to terrorists that's after hundreds of rockets were fired over the border by palestinian militants injuring fifty three israelis israel responded by bombing dozens of targets across gaza. i thought. i was the low. was. israeli affairs analyst mordecai kadar told us the defense minister's resignation could end up being a good career move. what he did because he knows the voices which come from the israeli street usually he withdraws also from the coalition and

this way netanyahu is losing the majority which he has in the knesset and now we are entering a new election liberman in his speech of resignation he mentioned not only what happened yesterday of the ceasefire which he was against he mentioned at least four events connected to other things which he had a dispute with when the time you know this time was the strong. back if if if i can say it and he decided that enough is enough is enough it might actually believe him to a position which he would be better in the elections because people know what he did and people definitely agree with what he did and this actually might play. to to his cards. in the coming elections the u.n.

security council has held an emergency meeting on the conflict and now some highly charged statements from the representatives of israel and palestine. the security council must only condemn hamas but we condemn in the strongest possible terms this aggression by israel there is no such a thing both sides hamas but that's in the fire result of this blockade which is immoral and illegal and it is inhumane and we will continue to take any measure the measure necessary to protect our people that this round of violence was created as a result of a botched bizarrely military operation in the gaza strip it's very interesting for me to hear the israeli ambassador speak about the gaza collation all of the victims except one of this round of escalation where palestinian all of the victims were

inside gaza not outside of the gaza strip israel bombed a t.v. station it bombed residential buildings it leveled them to the ground those are acts that are acts of terror because they did terrorize two million palestinians the latest round of escalation started because of a botched israeli undercover operation three kilometers deep inside gaza that's how the escalation started with the israeli forces killing seven palestinians. the president says they rein in academy of medical sciences a sense in the pale to the un and the u.s. sanctions he said the lives of many patients are in danger the sanctions are preventing truck fems from working in the country we visited one cancer treatment center in tehran. that wasn't a rational thought of my husband as a cancer patient and we're worried about his medication and their costs medications

used to be available before but after the sanctions they have become more expensive and rarer and we are worried about the future and what will happen. only my little this is the second round of my chemotherapy off the sanctions before my chemotherapy used to cost two hundred eleven euro but now with each round i need to pay four hundred and twenty two year old and drugs cannot be found easily like before we have to search them in different pharmacies with every single one of them not having a specific kind of drug. i. know when they impose sanctions on our banks the money cannot be transferred easily to a foreign country in order to buy medication.

we're not allowed to bring in many devices and some of them like components it's obvious that without these parts the devices simply won't work. we're going to do everything we can describe is iran hard as the british say to make to squeeze them until the pips squeak. more to the day here we have nine s. which a full every day i do know this house play takes with a sanctions i just not able to respond to half a million patients. i don't have the u.s. secretary of states my pump says the problems around this now facing are entirely the fault of the country's government. the leadership has to make a decision that they want their people to eat they have to make

a decision that they want to use their wealth to import medicine and not use their wealth to fund islamic extremism pompei later insisted that washington has not put any restrictions on fareed on medicine and trying iran and take a snooze week magazine and spreading fake news when they pick his quotes and a headline. political scientist called and believes washington's ultimate goal is to bring down the iranian government the united states is going to see we iraq until it's free will it allows us of course the arabian people will be harmed with any type of economic blockade the whole by the members of the ministrations the trouble. is that this will cause the iranian people to rise up and overthrow the car in iran so even though john bolton regime. is not with us is thinking there is simply

a euphemism because what he really wants to do is to bring the curve right government with economic pressure and economic sanctions. still to come on our table u.k. has reached a key milestone in the backside process that stories right after the break. hillary clinton is a warmonger and the democrats are easily kaunda to spending trillions of dollars and the defense industry and why they control the house defense stocks went up they mean is there any clearer indication that the democrats are the party of war.

us the better for the tremendously economically through the carter we'll do the world but can be. effectively giving up a power to impose structural adjustment on the countries over that it is a fundamentally doesn't understand how these are these are useful tools of us imperialism of in fact so it's not clear to me what his growth is i think it's true that these institutions are deeply unfair thirds of the u.s. they're on the verge through to the majority world of the global south and that's really the reason we need to reform the. welcome back to. the u.k. prime minister to reason may says she's received a cabinet spec'ing for

a draft with the she gave a statement house side ten downing street to more than five hours of discussion. the choices before us were difficult particularly in relation to the northern ireland backstop but the collective decision of captain it was that the government should agree the draft withdrawal agreement and the outline political declaration this is a decisive step which enables us to move on and finalize the deal in the days ahead . these decisions were not taken lightly but i believe it is a decision that is firmly in the national interest both reason mase been in meetings all day she spent having just addressed the media there previous to that she'd just come out of a meeting last of several hours with her own cabinet and during the course of that meeting they were thrashing out and agreed a collective position on that draft bragg's that deal but it's understood from

reports coming out this evening that ministers the number of ministers within the cabinet express their opposition to that draft deal they include jeremy hunt under lead some gavin williams liam fox estimates vary who particularly were said to be very outspoken and even wanted those members of the cabinet to be able to vote and express their position officially on this deal now they haven't made any resignations from the cabinet yet but. we can look back to when the checkers plan was signed off it took a whole forty eight hours for david davis to stand down as briggs a secretary and seventy two hours for boris johnson to stand down as foreign secretary so we may yet see a number of resignations as a result of that draft deal and it's not just the cabinet either within the backbenchers. own m.p.'s that are thought to be a number of them this evening writing letters of no confidence in the prime

minister in the hope that they can spark a leadership challenge and remove her from her position as leader of the conservative party as prime minister in any case that. draft text has been received pap's a little bit more positively in brussels the news michel barnier is saying that he considers that to be decisive progress to resume is going to address parliament and remains to be seen whether she can muster up enough support within her own party and out with of it in order to get this through parliament historian that unscared believes to resume has failed to get any concessions from the in the fact that negotiations. could see to do everything she said she would fight for with ended up despite her redlines we've ended up probably in the single more in the customs union she's given a separate state is ignored while inches betrayed the scottish fishermen as far as i can see it's almost incredible that he's even born credible of politics

so i expect there may still be resignations i hope for the all of the conservative party that all. hope that the g d p and everyone else victors this poll would. the e.u. parliament has approved tougher rules on arms exports to all start tearing regimes after releasing reports that cites a large number of european made weapons have ended up in the hands of islamic state militants in syria and iraq i'm very glad that our report has been adopted it is a strong signal for stricter e.u. arms export control we need to putin on both the e.u.'s military madness as well advanced scrupulous and lucrative business of deaths by european weapons the documents pens by german and the pace have been a listing expresses shock over the volume of any weaponry going to diane edge far

more to be done to stop export licenses that might be used to supply terrorists adding that more effective methods must be found to stop the transfer. the document also mentioned to us hans tales in the middle east and the need for better controls ten lest my craggy right to be concerned about the spread of american weaponry. i certainly think that the drawing attention to it and mentioning the us as a third party was quite a good idea it's very. subtle it's very subtle but it certainly draws attention to the fact that the us is actually the biggest arms dealer on the planet and donald trump being the president is the biggest number one arms dealer going at the moment so we have to draw attention to that we have to george tensions the fact that without the u.s. supplying arms to saudi arabia and other oppressive regimes in the middle east al-qaeda and isis and affiliates would be struggling to actually wage their walls

of aggression in syria and iran so yes i think that the e.u. policy at least and european parliament members of the of the parliament didn't want to draw people's attention to that but couldn't do it overtly as it were so yeah they say they've been very cruel sure about it and they've actually. brought it to people's attention without specifically attacking the u.s. for its policy. they were hoping to swap the boulevards of paris for the streets of shanghai but its passengers on a flight to china got more than they bargained for when they hopped on the plane. that's.
