12:01 pm
a resolution this point it would encourage to put these sort of curse the israelis this is what the decision is all about on the floor of the united states a split to merge as in washington over the u.s. saudi arabia with the senate calling for hope and support from war if again while the other side of the white house stands firm on its support. and the yellow vests protesters in france plan another series of rallies against president microns fuel tax increase for french police demands and they be given more support so. the situation on the ground might be very different but according to the information we have here everything is correct and the problems happen when management does not understand the risks we are taking on location because they're sitting in.

good evening out international news central moscow is kevin i'm with you for this half hour news update thanks for watching not to talk about tonight first that we start with breaking news coming out of washington in the last twenty minutes or so don't want from saying that he won't be meeting with president putin on the sidelines of the g. twenty summit in argentina was due to start this friday the u.s. president cited the recent escalation between russia and ukraine which resulted in those naval clashes in the hours of c. last sunday now it's been unclear whether or not the leaders would meet as kind of on off on off right up until the penultimate day before the g twenty summit trouble said he is that waiting on u.s. security services valuating the clashes in the as of c. that saw russia seize those three ukrainian navy vessels over a border violation the american president though says he is looking forward nonetheless to meeting putin when quote the situation is resolved as for dmitri peskov the kremlin spokes person he said that russia has not received any official notification about what we're talking about at the moment the kremlin reporting
12:03 pm
that the meeting was on but according to president trump a t.v. room at least it's off the stand at the moment let's get the thoughts of this on off meeting go to washington former u.s. diplomat jim jatra says where they say the german yeah i suppose maybe it has to be expected there was always uncertainty about this trumps held the door open to see he will have a meeting with putin some where down the line but of course you can't help thinking that barky ahead here as far as drums concerned there's been this big story today the ongoing war investigation michael cohen except could it be a bit of a headline diversion they're going or what you think is going on behind the scenes . i think it's more than a headline diversion i don't think this has to do with character all i think it has to do with exactly that with the michael cohen appearance in federal court today and the news that all the all the antitrust people are chattering about today that apparently discussions about a trump tower in moscow were ongoing and were much further along than might have been admitted and i think that's the atmosphere of the reason why he feels he needs
12:04 pm
to cancel his meeting now look maybe maybe we'll go ahead and have a very informal kind of handshake sidebar thing that isn't described as a formal meeting but i think this is a really a terrible development but taking it over face value politically why couldn't he have had a meeting with putin over this if he was concerned about with the rules really concerned about what happened in the eyes of sea as he's saying publicly here why couldn't he may try and thrust this out well exactly right and in fact many other very anti russia people are saying yes trump should have the meeting and he should go and talk to putin read him the riot act and tell him how bad he is and all this other sort of thing look i got a piece in the washington times today with my fred angeles urging of the trump who'd meeting also want to bring in mr xi of china mr modi out of india look at the big picture here we've got to do something to pull back from these rising tensions in the black sea and the south china sea we've got to start thinking statesman like
12:05 pm
here instead we've got these these petty little political problems domestically here that are designed simply to undermine trump's presidency and i'm sorry to say he's dancing like a monkey on a string this is what he does he want to be if you think about these late system michael cohen revelations than. i think he is i think that he is afraid because i look i disagree with a lot of people saying that if he was impeached he won't be removed from office i believe years impeached by the house he will be removed and they will find any kind of dirt they can in his business life to justify articles of impeachment all right well that we can leave it for there i think jim thank you very much for your thoughts will come budget later that's a breaking news to say that looks like. donald trump is concerned the forthcoming meeting in argentina with present a different approach on the sidelines of the g. twenty is often over you never know might change of the coming hours ahead jim thanks for now. thank you. but we time russia is moving to ramp up its defenses in

crimea following naval clashes with ukraine by deploying a new s four hundred anti aircraft missile system last sunday russian border patrol seized three ukrainian ships in potential backstory here says for violating territorial waters our senior correspondent talks as for the latest developments on it. the s four hundred triumph as it's called is in essence a defensive weapon. that can shoot down aircraft that can shoot down cruise missiles as well as ballistic missiles up to four hundred kilometers away and at heights of up to thirty kilometers so it's a defensive weapon this is the fourth detachment of four hundred missiles to be stationed in crimea over the last several years and no surprise really given that what's happening on the other side of the border on the other side of the crimean border that the ukrainian military mobilized that isn't
12:07 pm
a state of high alert and anything the russians believe could be expected especially after what they call this provocative act that happened on sunday where three ukrainian naval vessels went to the russian territorial waters without filing any notification something that they had done previously the russians believe this was ordered by the government in ukraine for political reasons because of elections that are just four months away since then martial law has been established in many regions of ukraine and while some ukrainians approve others. happy about it the my sister was a martyr you are getting complacent. mr johnson. you know you could use the word if you. were beautiful. beautiful but you got all the.
12:08 pm
we don't usually see you supposedly where you want to. be good but you could are you going to hold off from the rubble to which there's a particular problem for us. is that you don't know how to get. much as you are. going to. nevertheless this deployment of four hundred missiles is a serious move it is babson message to the ukrainians that russia is willing and able to defend its territory irregardless of what incidents may come up next well as for the korean side of it worth repeating care of claims it warned russia it says about the presence of its vessels in the area further it's called the seizure of its ships an act of aggression ukraine's demanding the immediate release of those twenty four crew members who are serving a two month pretrial detention here in russia.

the u.s. senate and white house of log homes over america's ongoing support for saudi arabia senators are demanding the government end military aid to the saudi led efforts in . the war there while the u.s. secretary of state as a different opinion. they're considering building a resolution on the senate floor which we think is just poorly timed this is what the decision is all about on the floor of the united states senate passing a resolution this point that would have heard the who these would encourage the iranians will no longer be part of their destructive military adventurism hopefully get a cease fire in yemen something that we have diplomatically been striving for for months and we think we're right on the cusp of that we were fueling the bombers that the saudis sent in to yemen. the vote comes amid own going on over the killing of jamal khashoggi the distant journalist murdered last month inside the saudi consulate in istanbul. as more of the divisions in washington over the saudi yemen
12:10 pm
conflict. u.s. senate versus the white house twenty ninth of november twenty eighth the motion should the u.s. support the war in yemen to any human being the logical answer would surely be no never mind waging a war on a country that has according to the u.n. claimed over six thousand eight hundred lives so far with many organizations putting that number far higher it seems that support for this conflict in the very country supplying a huge volume of arms to the saudis the u.s. of course is becoming increasingly split but the trouble administration continues to defend its involvement in the yemen the suffering in yemen grieves me but if the united states of america was not involved in yemen it would be a hell of a lot worse let's remind ourselves of what is going on on the ground in yemen before we continue thousands of deaths including children and that's not to mention the worst ever cholera outbreak and millions of people under the risk of starvation
12:11 pm
saudi's reasoning is that they're only targeting the rebels which they view to be terrorists but what about the collateral damage and the dire humanitarian situation on the ground in yemen has been steadily worsening since the war began three years ago so what has prompted the senate to vote first such a resolution just now well part of the reason is obviously the scandal and innocent journalists critical of the saudi crown prince being killed in a society embassy in turkey followed by weeks of denial numerous versions of what might have happened and finally a lucid admission that premeditated murder was indeed at play we know. that he. was involved not. any one of you know all smoking do you believe i've read every piece of intelligence about him in the last few hours i think i read it all there is no direct reporting. connecting the ground

hundred ten billion dollars on military what the. things that create. jobs. for this country trauma's message is loud and clear on the matter but the american economy is a priority so in other words what's all the fuss about. r.t. . journalist the middle east's a commentator addle darwish told us he thinks the trumpet ministrations focus is on the contracts it holds with saudi arabia we have the president of the united states of america coming out when he was asked about iran whereas abuse asked about. a way to stall a civil war going on in yemen and he just said i'm not going to sacrifice it been billion and exactly fifty billion that one would look. rock which is unusual because it is not a usual politician because he is a businessman then you have the business. we go vote for the pressure they don't

want to do this contra i think we have to be seeing that within the internal struggle inside that medical mystery genre rather it is alignment that i just meant of american foreign policy i don't think foreign policy will change i don't think they're going to cancel the contracts. to france so-called yellow vests protesters have announced plans for more rallies against the president's fuel tax increase and many microns digging in though and is refusing to change course despite angering nationwide protests over the past fortnight. thank you. last saturday's demonstrations lead to

a rest between protesters and police according to reports there are one hundred thirty arrests more than half of those happening in paris five officers were injured including one who suffered burns and the mayor of paris joined one of france's police unions to expressing worries over the safety of officers the unions general secretary told r.t. france are said to channel their superiors don't understand the conditions police face during those rallies. but said i started on what is your university the police that overseen from the operation room at the headquarters they give orders saying do that go there the situation on the ground might be very different but according to the information we have here everything is correct and the problems happen when management does not understand the risks we are taking on location because they're sitting in their office. i was told an interesting story one location workers were laying paving slabs and no one from
12:16 pm
management has told us to close off the area to prevent the protesters from pulling up those slabs and using them. those protesters are hooligans and criminals the people who don't want to abide by the law the inside conflict they're ready to commit crimes in the question of who they really are i would say they are against society the use of the protest movement is a pretext i can tell you see we heard from a spokesperson for the yellow vests it was a representative for the protesters during talks with the french government. we think we are forced to pay taxes saying that this is necessary for this and that better the same time we do not see what is actually being done here and so does this seem to think all the issues i think they put all the problems together and today we see the results of this it does not surprise me there's so many people signed the petition because not everything is good and everyone understands this the problem is how to get across it and the petition has become

you're producing a lot of oil and gas now or energy. as big as the russia and saudi arabia but as you're making there is that they're actually losing money. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic looking only. very critical. to sit down in.

the case maria a russian student now accused of being a kremlin spied america as seen her request to be moved from solitary confinement rejected by u.s. court still struggling to prove her innocence though i lottie's done you a whole can spoke exclusively to maria bruton is father but the efforts to free her and the condition she's being held. how much do we know right now about the conditions that maria is being held in detention in the united states. all the time being she's being held in federal prison in alexandria in poor conditions she's in solitary confinement and alone so it's a tough regime our family our lawyers and russia's foreign ministry believe she isn't deserving of it. what do you think could be behind decision to keep on mainly in those conditions. the version being reported in the media is that she passed her lawyers find number two another inmate. but i believe that's just an attempt to
12:21 pm
pressure her into it a forced admission of guilt according to some of the latest reports maria may enter some sort of plea bargain with the court before the trial starts all these reports are accurate and if they are do you think the condition she is being held in has influenced her decision to enter that bargain. i can't say it's true i don't have any details to make any conclusions but i can say that her lawyers are well qualified people for a long time they've been trying to prove her innocence and i'm sure they will what measures are currently being taken by the russian side to ensure maria's release and return to russia and what more do you think could be done by the russian authorities. different measures are being taken from russia's foreign ministry in the embassy in washington to try and solve these questions human rights groups are also doing everything possible so that maria is treated fairly but if you could
12:22 pm
send a message to the media to be a thorough tease to the courts involved in this case what would your message be you know. i want to pay my huge respect to the american people maria has never done anything wrong in the country her goal was to study and she did so very well and i hope that not only the court but all people who she was going on will come to the right conclusion but i hope they'll be assured that maria is not guilty that she isn't guilty of any wrongdoing or crime she didn't do any harm to the state she respected that much and still respects it. most of this is something you'd normally hope to see at a football match but does have to take over from flares and of petrel ball game in the greek capital on wednesday. hosting in the champions league but the game build up to. violence seems artie's a lecturer at the story for you tonight. yet another night of senseless football
12:23 pm
related violence in europe when the famed dutch club from amsterdam went to the greek capital of eight and to play a local side in the champions league now we've seen violence in the football stands before but this was something on the next level when part of the fans broke onto the pitch and threw molotov cocktail into the way stand i. the police when went into that stand and handed out some beating to the travelling fans resulting in injuries to some of them and all that after a night of craziness in the streets of athens with the two sets of fans fighting each other and now the u.a.e. the european governing football body said that it will punish those fans involved but here is one problem in such cases usually usa for hands in a find for the club and
12:24 pm
a disqualification for the travelling fans for the very next game in this case next game is on december twelfth in lisbon portugal and the disciplinary committee of you a fee will review this case on december thirteenth essentially meaning that the very same fans who threw molotov cocktails in the stadium will have a chance to do it again in lisbon and in this case we're seeing bizarre double standards from you a for let's go back to september twenty seventeen when spartak moscow travel to slovenia as a matter of war flair was thrown on the pitch some scuffles outside the stadium not not really many injured in this case yet immediate ban for the net. away game for spartak the same story with the serbian side sort of as well as the red stuff from belgrade bitch invaded in austria during the champions league qualifier a ban for two games consecutive games away for the fans of red star belgrade but there are cases when these punishments are not applied equally. the club from the

tally and capital first they travel to liverpool in april sending one fan into a coma which he still hasn't recovered from later no punishment at all and guess what does it again in october they play c.s.k. moscow at home clashes outside the stadium with one fan reportedly being stabbed again no no sanctions no fire no fan no bans no fines no anything so it all begs for a question why are the standards so different if you a fire has this so-called zero tolerance policy towards food related violence should be applied to all sides involved and now we have to wait and see where the athens will behave in lisbon in two weeks time. reporting from moscow. the former head of britain's armed forces says the country needs to rediscover the mentality that helped win the cold war and deal effectively with emerging threats like russia and iran because people into an eighteen in london for their reaction
