realize how chaotic and predicaments this makes. the french president emanuel mcraney move to appease a nation in revolt promising tax cuts and wage hikes. economy i am declaring a state of economic and social emergency the palm of my share of responsibility. and an alleged russian agents request to change her plea in the us soft and this really insisting she was not guilty herring will be held on wednesday. a very warm welcome you're watching r.t. international with me. the top story this hour fearing for her future the british prime minister has cancelled a crucial vote on her breaks it deal the house of commons was set to decide on it

this choose day but to raise that may well meets with the e.u. leaders an attempt to rescue the deal seeking assurances over issues like the irish border which has hindered much of the negotiations she admitted that the council votes spared her a major defeat and may faces increasing pressure and westminster. this very carefully to what has been said in this chamber and. i. from listening to those views it is clear that while there is broad support for many of the key aspects of the g. just this house wants to deliver bricks it. i. if she doesn't take on board the fundamental changes required then she must make way for those who can damage across

this house don't want your deal does she not realize how chaotic and when articulates this make you know. this isn't a government in control failing again. isn't her time wasting to like simply reckless what has been the portable pain and uncertainty of the last two years what the heck is going more ah i see she is for eight true but not prime minister is better than a proud prime minister. in the chaotic atmosphere in the house of commons was a pit in my spy one m.p. getting thrown out picked up the parliament ceremonial mace and processed the regime was. the cold mace technically must be present for u.k. parliament to meet and process nos as a symbol of the monarch's all forsake the m.p. claimed it was a symbolic gesture in defiance of the chaos in the chamber. since the break

that referendum back in the summer of twenty sixteen the issue has divided and stirred controversy amongst the british public and politicians r.t. is probably boyko takes a look at how it all started here's the moments the results and confusion began to sink into the british media we can now say the decision taken in one thousand nine hundred seventy five by this country to join the common market has been reversed by this referendum to leave the e.u. this is we are absolutely clear now that there is no way that the remains side can win or can they. it's two and a half years since britain voted to leave the europeans. but the prospect of staying in that club is higher than ever how did it get to this. it how to be rather straightforward to the country advantage this is an historic moment from which there can be no turning back and brussels or mr paine

sean created. but it. can be concluded quickly and then there should the negotiations began and chugged away for a year until they hit a couple of major stumbling blocks the thorny issue of the irish border as well as future trade brought out bluster from one side just to train work for comic corp. and bravado from the other let nobody be in any doubt that as i've always said you know we are preparing for a new deal ministers left may side in the e.u. faced with and to european movements across the continent wasn't just going to roll over so when it deal between london and brussels it was finally struck last month john made it clear if this one you. should just

leave it for months if you should go he she switched back home to reason may's deal any united politicians of all stripes against it faced with losing the vote by a landslide to reason may called it off at the eleventh hour and much to the outrage of politicians failed to set a new date for the whole house voted to debate this we wanted to vote to meet the people expected us to vote. on the government which have gone the wrong way and did it in the toilets this is that ultimately. from the leader of the house here for this prime minister and how we could look the host of the right and try to suggest the pain this is business as usual it's quite extraordinary constituents are watching the sas. in with no idea how this country is being run and we did have a host comes up with new we forward for all of this the message from many including

the hard bags the tears in her own party is that she can't improve a rotten deal which although not exactly in those words also happens to be the message from brussels i have decided to call european council meeting on thursday we will not renegotiate the deal including the backstop but we are ready to discuss how to facilitate u.k. ratification as time is running out we will also discuss a preparedness for a no deal scenario so instead of surviving a historic parliamentary vote to raise a maze had to ensure a historic humiliation and by failing to reschedule the date of the vote she has been accused of running away from democracy and that this is the u.k. moves ever closer to the twenty ninth of march the official date of britain's departure from the e.u. that means that m.p.'s are going to be under even more pressure to approve what perhaps they consider to be a bad deal just to avoid a disastrous no deal scenario that if to resume

a survives as leader and doesn't get ousted by either her own party or through a vote of no confidence which incensed opposition parties say they're now planning that could force a general election and considering the current state of disarray a party promising a second referendum to potentially reverse brags it could win popular support. an emergency debate is still expected to take take place later this tuesday in the house of commons but of course without the votes what we're seeing across all of the breaks the developments as to reason may heads to berlin to meet the dutch and german leaders as she's hoping for some assurances over the irish border issue to help push her deal through we spoke to a member of the northern irish sinn fein policy who claims that no one on either side of the irish border wants private i think we don't want to see any border certainly not on the island of ireland and not in the r.e.c.

area they're the majority here in the north of ireland for it to me and it is absolute democratic discreetness to force us to accept the european union if we accept on the terms that the black city years or the d p s's mayor's race wish then it will mean a return to a hard border it will mean the diminishing undermanning of the good friday agreement which of course is the underpins our peace process will mean that the jobs will be lost investment will be lost we will jeopardize the progress that we have me in terms of our peace progress on in terms of reconciliation we're trying to yourself for all reasons we're against borders and we don't believe that backstop the special status for the north of ireland which is continue and that the agreement we don't believe double lead to a hard border and the are you see the constitutional issue reduced united are and will be decided on another day. the french president trying to quell weeks of

violence by offering an olive branch to his angry nation after four weekends of nationwide processed some money mccrone made a dramatic statement. economy i am declaring a state of economic and social emergency. i accept my share of responsibility and initial attempts to appease the revolt failed the so-called yellow vest protests continued even when the government scrapped ifill tax hike in his first public address since the unrest bowed to other demands like tax concessions and a minimum wage rise. an innocent man given the impression that it wasn't my concern that i had other priorities i also know that my words may have hurt some of you very humble tone of speech from president my corner as he addressed the french nation on monday evening saying that people had legitimate right to protest but

there was no legitimate want for the violence that had been seen over the last the weeks also warned the country was facing a social and economic crisis. because of this crisis i want to reconcile with you salaries will increase by one hundred euros in twenty nineteen at no extra cost to employers over time will not be taxed and i will ask all employees to pay an end of year bonus this will not be taxed and there will be no social payments for pensioners receiving less than two thousand euros the tax increase will be cancelled as we had a plan that many people will be questioning why it took president almost four weeks to address the nation many people saying this address should have come much much before and wondering why it took so much violence before he decided to address the problem directly.

will these measures these offerings be enough well it's difficult to say but one thing that many of the protesters may not be happy with is the fact that much refused to roll back on one of the taxes that they wanted changes these were the reforms that he made to the wealth tax. someone me to go back on the

wealth tax this is been around for forty years it has caused people to leave our country we can't go back we want we need to create jobs it speaks to the nation on monday night described by many as being my bones moment of truth will it be enough to quell the social tensions the people who are unhappy here in france to stop them from taking to the streets once more. i think he's getting scared. that he's lost all credibility and people will go to trust him he must leave get out very nice speech but i don't trust him at all and we need proof in any case we're staying here as long as we don't have a clear science so i could. minute since november seventeenth that's not a lot of minutes compared to the number of days we've been here but there were

a few reassuring elements one big first step here is many more to take. the yellow vest protesters are not the only ones who have demands for mccrone students opposing academic changes are expected to stage a new round of demonstrations later on tuesday and dependent journalist robert thomas believes the concessions president mccrone is offering will not be enough to end the deep civil unrest in france. he's got to solve this problem you can't have a situation every weekend where more good on the shores of new smashing the place up motels. that cannot be allowed to continue if you change your strategy is he really great your view well if you continue with these policies of spending money then he has to change policy regarding your own or really your if you don't care exploding so easy suddenly going to turn it back on your so what the

germans are now. we just have to go our own work i don't know i mean it's it's the implications of what he star masses because it means he's completely turned away from the policies and when he would you go elected. a russian citizen charged with being an illegal foreign agents in the united states has filed a request to change her plea maria burton or was arrested in july this year and is now reportedly expected to plead guilty after her lawyers struck a deal with the u.s. prosecutors to define annmarie ability not by counsel and a government by through its attorney respectfully filed this joint motion to set a change of plea hearing in the above caption matter and request a hearing at the court's earliest convenience maria bit in the allegedly infiltrated groups like the national rifle organization to gain political influence for russia she's been held in solitary confinement since her arrest in

a written statement to r.t. maria's father dismissed the allegations against his daughter and cast doubt on reports of her plea deal with prosecutors. there have been media reports on an upcoming plea deal between maria and us federal prosecutor says i have no such information and any source claims without possession of the case materials and nothing but speculation maria will not falsely admit to violating the law the reports that she is due to get us citizenship appear fantasy or simply lies from the media or elsewhere we are critically short of money for maria boots in his legal defense and we need support during three out of the five months of maria's detention she's been in solitary confinement because in his psychological and physical harm it's hard to tell how long a person can in just such torture moscow says it has no official information about their tonight making a plea deal human labor rights lawyer duncan violate says' the motivation for this case and its timing are clear these charges were always politically motivated i

think they don't have anything on her and that's why they're left with a pretty nice the charge but again i think they press these charges and they pressed him at a time when it was very politically sensitive to frankly bolster the whole russia gate scandal which is frankly gone nowhere but they continue to add you know secondary terror shiri charges to make it look like something's there she's been treated very badly in jail kept isolated she's also been subjected to regular body cavity searches searches which she has claimed amounts of sexual salt lake appear to be. so sick on ukraine's latest controversy posting a photograph of himself on the line with a soldier wearing it nazi style insignia that's coming up after the break.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development only loosely i'm going to exist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. truths seem wrong. but old rules just don't hold. any new world belief yet to shape our disdain to come to educate and engage with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look

for common ground. it. welcome back now a photo of ukrainian president petro poroshenko standing alongside elite troops has caused outrage online highlighted it was one man standing to the rights of the president and if you take a closer look you can see the insignia of a nazi as as did death division on his vest photos were posted on the president's official pages and all still there we lost the presidential administration of ukraine to comment on the photo but so far they've chosen not to respond the division made up part of nazi germany's military during the second world war it was initially formed from concentration camp guards and was believed to be involved in

the mass murder of polish civilians and a massacre of british soldiers during the battle of france and this is not the first case nazi imagery has appeared among the ukrainian forces the hours of battalion which is a ukrainian national guard regiment uses a logo very similar to another nazi german military symbol however officials in kiev have denied there is any connection. because i am. going to. the in the the in the van the still president of the media company your voice america thinks the ukrainian

leader may be pandering to far right movements to gain their support ahead of next year's election. what i was trying to do is curry favor with the folks that he believes are going to support him in his reelection coming in january he's not polling very strongly he's also looking potentially to gain access to armament to defend his position and maintain martial law by reaching out across into nato and while nato allies might think that they are protecting a sovereign nation when in fact they're doing is they are going to eventually fund and arm a nazi coalition that will again repeat history from what we saw in nazi germany if they need to to take a page out of what we do in this country which is we are constantly monitoring for far right activity in our own military forces ukrainians need to do the same thing particularly in this instance as maintain vigilance for that far right movement because we do not want to see a repeat of what happened in world war two the amount of far right movement you're

seeing in the ukraine is so minuscule that it's not going to necessarily create problems today but the problem with that is there's no such thing as a little bit of cancer a little bit of cancer if it's ignored it gets to be a bigger piece of cancer and we saw that back in nazi germany and this is the beginning of what can potentially be another history repeating itself story. ultra-orthodox jews have been taking a stand against proposed conscription reforms in israel twenty eight demonstrators were arrested on monday in a city near tel aviv. police say the protesters disrupted traffic on main transport routes by sitting across roads and chanting police were seen dragging people away the demonstration was organized off to a ruling that deemed students studying will it just seminaries and expression for

military service when they get to choose. the pentagon has acknowledged that millions of dollars in u.s. taxpayers money has been lost to the saudi led campaign in yemen well that's despite recent polls suggesting that americans have a negative view on the military operation the u.s. defense department put the huge loss down to accounting errors it came to light after the magazine obtained information from the defense department caleb moore pin picks up the story. what comes to dealing with america's allies the trumpet ministration has one great fear paying too much money you want to say maybe you can have to pay many nations ovett sums of money from past years and it is very unfair to the united states they're not paying their bills well there is one war in which the united states has been paying well beyond its fair share

according to the department of defense saudi airplanes and airplanes from the united arab emirates have been refueling themselves at the expense of the american taxpayers apparently it's all due to an accounting error u.s. central command recently reviewed its records and found errors in accounting where the department of defense for to charge this sort of. adequately for fuel and refueling services now it's quite an expensive mistake the costs are still being added up but apparently it's in the millions of dollars u.s. aerial refueling assistance was provided to the saudi led coalition for more than three point five use activities that likely cost tens of millions of dollars we must ensure that u.s. taxpayers a fully reimbursed for that support the united states uses k c one thirty five strato tankers and casing ten extenders to refuel planes mid air a mere hour of work with these aircraft costs over ten thousand dollars now these

refueling were stopped in mid november but that was after over two thousand operations had been carried out in which the united states was helping the saudis to wage their war against yemen and that is not a popular war seventy five percent of the u.s. public according to the latest polling doesn't want the country to be involved but u.s. government officials seem to think differently we do believe that the support for the coalition is necessary it sends a wrong message if we discontinue our support but what the u.s. public wants doesn't seem to be of concern in the united. states remains highly involved with the saudi coalition as it wages its widely condemned war against its neighbor caleb mop and r.t.e. new york we spoke to journalist david lindorff who claims that the pentagon is wasteful and that constant risk of for old. the pentagon's accounting is so crazy and so incompetent and also corrupt that. the numbers are

actually frequently being just made up year after year the pentagon has been on the list of high risk of fraud waste and abuse and then his this huge amount of money being spent on fueling these saudi jets spawning yemen and they aren't even i mean spend enough that they're doing it but then they're not charging saudis who have endless money for the u.s. doing all of that air tanker refueling you know in it but it's it's not necessary spending so they've been able to keep jacking their budgets. through these accounting gimmicks thanks for joining us on our international best hour i do get in touch if you have something you'd like to say by following us on social media and join us again at the top of the hour.

what politicians do. they put themselves on the line and they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to be preached. to the right to be press that's like about four three in the morning can't be good . i'm interested always in the waters of the house. question. prosecution will need to become almost. the fault is all to take on where you push us off the threshold finds somebody known to seem to i mean yeah i mean i mean political pressure on that god you've done to him in cold blood to know through security genocide nuns were the new bundled up business models used by american corporations doubts of one thing called police sold all good mental disease has
