in costs of a problem. i am sure that you already know. that. serbia considered to be one of its key partners in all question especially in the most important question such as the cost of a problem as you know probably. has a huge ground around it now they have been gathering since morning. seventy thousand people as far as i know and just like the president. all these people have come here to see you to reach here. and maybe to hear a few words from you some words of support and friendship. what would you tell them about the cost of a problem. you know. which is. i wasn't planning to participate in any all the. rallies and what you
11:01 am
said was surprising and i don't think i will be able to say anything there especially without an end without an interpreter but. should people like you pre we we are we've been you mind you very much like this so it's on the. testimonies to our friendship. as for our relations which all i can say is. that relations between russia and serbia. have existed for centuries they didn't appear they didn't start yesterday. we have strong roots. russian and serbian people have always been side together with this historic ties and there's a saying. in serbia it's basically go this when we're together
11:02 am
what will inevitably achieve victory and this is the idea i would like to. translate basically to the people who are there in the in the streets who gathered. you know you know you've heard our estimation of the situation in kosovo in serbia we know that. there's been violations of international law of international security council resolution twelve forty four and we're going to work with our partners. with the goal of. preserving international law and respecting international law and we see what's happening in the region sometimes it may seem that the decisions taking years ago were taken and you know one of them was to basically divide the serbian people.
11:03 am
into two parts. and any decisions taken will not be long term they will not be viable unless they're just unless they're fair and which. has been working for a long time to achieve a fair solution and if we want to achieve stability in the region we need to be able to find compromises and once we have found a compromise we need to be able to stick to it. and it's going on but i would like to say that. was my product your whole staff your noble cause. and i want. to direct all the questions to president putin only because we are a little bit behind this kid deal on the storm and maybe people who would like to
11:04 am
feel a moral person listening now consists of he is the guests on there and everyone wants to hear. from me. was what i doing here and i would like to say that serbia is super proud of the fact that it is an independent sovereign state look we have military trial and sea and international integrity and we are free to make decisions based on the will of its people but not any other government so part is you know no other nation such as great britain or any other. opportunity to decide anything for us because only these people of serbia can do that and that's for all the media. you know as we will is no mounted when they mean what who thinks what different took out
11:05 am
serbia is not going to change its politics political track and no one can influence . the sonata the most of the. political side of you and we all have a right to that maybe some other party wells when and to change that political track that serbia is going along but as long as i am president this is what is going to serbia will remain in the state thank you very much. we toss announced this meeting over. all right we're just watching the presidents of serbia and russia just eggs. stage there after having a short question answer session with journalists from the two nations as well a lot of topics being discussed there our correspondent is in serbia we'll be
11:06 am
hearing from him shortly just wrapping up the main points of that it seems to be just from my notes one of the big aspects costs of oh of course the russian president saying the moscow stands first the bullet in the region but that is being tested by authorities currently. authorities because of the establishment of an illegal army also talking about energy that was a big big aspect as well saying that there's a twenty percent increase enough to liveries to serbia that is expected to rise even further in twenty twenty two and just finally you are watching alexander. serbian president there wearing his alexander nevsky award on his chest that was given to him by the russian leader a very big honor especially for foreigners in russia so we'll be going through maybe the man aspects of the hours and coach here on r t international that meeting between the two presidents happening in belgrade one day visit by vladimir putin.
11:07 am
all right moving on to more of the big news today as i'm sure you're aware it's been a turbulent week for the u.k. prime minister after her proposed breaks a deal was overwhelmingly rejected by lawmakers trees i'm a mom to survive a no confidence motion on wins they by a margin of just nine votes the victory which saw her deeply divided conservative party rally or run her follow. the wide ranging debate in the hearts of commons on the country's future. it is to the right hundred and three the nose to the left or right three hundred twenty five so the nose i mean god knows i mean. thank god i'm pleased that this house has expressed its confidence in the government and i am right mr speaker the right honorable lady will.
11:08 am
be knows as the nothing has changed prime minister and we will also continue to work to deliver on the solemn promise we made to the people of this country to deliver on the results of the referendum and. the government must remove must remove clearly once and for all the prospect of the catastrophe of a no deal breaker for me and all the chaos that would come as a result of that i do not take this responsibility likely in my government will continue its work to increase our prosperity the opposition or should we cut by and smell the coffee right was. last forty eight hours helping there in westminster we got the latest a little bit earlier from london with our teas to see a trick and i. what we have going on right now is these political games are figuring out exactly what brooks it is going to look like and who is going to end
11:09 am
up getting what they want really continuing in full swing and it's really clear that there is going to be a bunch of people that are going to end up to with rights it looking like something that they didn't expect because of so many different are opposing views on how exactly it should shape up but indeed a very busy difficult time for the british prime minister she has massively field it with the deal that she has been pushing forward through the house of commons for her country to accept that didn't work out she ran to just survive by a very narrow slim majority of just nineteen votes a vote of no confidence that took place here and now the question is what happens next indeed what we've seen as theresa may need really after surviving a vote of no confidence called for an opposition party leader jeremy corbyn who initiated that vote of no confidence to get together for talks and start moving forward with figuring out what to do next here however declined that meeting and he
11:10 am
says no talks will be taking place until a new deal drugs it is completely off the table this is what he said earlier today the process of the last two months has been one of threatening people by saying well if you don't vote for this to them is no deal and it's going to be the crisis of no deal i just said quite simply i'm happy to put forward our views on it but you've got to take no deal of the table first thought well that theresa may taking no deal off the table seems extremely unlikely at this point although again with so many things having happened anything could happen but for now we have jeremy corbyn there say that she has survived as he put it for now hinting that a more motions of no confidence could in fact follow depending how events unraveled . he said that this is a government only in name as he put it and he's called again for another general election to take place because according to the labor party leader that is the only
11:11 am
way out of the deadlock and he's said that the reason is offered to discuss this. process of moving forward as a stunt and he does believe that if the government keeps pushing forward with keeping the idea of a new deal drugs that on the table anything is possible and including a second referendum but also said it might be very clear that all the options are on the table including the public through talks which we make clear in our conference motion which was i've just remind you unanimously agreed by our conference last september eleventh. however the difficulty there is when pushed for details in terms of what labor's position would be on this whether to leave or remain what kind of specifics they would put forward if there were a general election that's where the things become extremely vague and that's the problem there is specially given there's only just weeks to go before bracks it.
11:12 am
kicks in so he's also written a letter to theresa me earlier today urging her if she if you want to deal rule out the possibility of no deal but meanwhile we have the british prime minister the ever surviving theresa may her clock is ticking because now she has to come up with a plan b. which is going to be voted on at the house of commons as soon as tuesday january twenty ninth and so not only does she have to come up with this plan b. which she didn't have certainly up until the vote that took place earlier but she also has to make sure it's going to be much more popular than whatever she had come up with in the first place especially given that she's unlikely to get away with it if she really does not pull something together that is going to work for the majority which is extremely difficult given how split the country is on the issue of broad. yes so much happening let's just recap what nasty was going through the possibility and what's ahead in the next few months. is soon expected in brussels
11:13 am
for a crisis talks on break to hoping to win concessions from e.u. officials on the changes to the current deal then bring that back. to parliament on monday m.p.'s will debate and vote on whether a few days after that the twenty ninth of january that is two months exactly before the u.k. is scheduled to leave the e.u. as things stand it may leave with no deal at all on world trade organization terms well gerrard botton the leader of the you can dependents party and mark of the crisis research institute gave us their thoughts on the impasse in parliament on what it means for the country. the establishment remind us of being counter-attacking for the last two and a half years with the assistance of mrs my with the assistance of the commission to get to this position where we are now not really leaving this whole two and a half year political sure rod has been conducted on the false premise that you
11:14 am
can't leave without a deal of course you ended up with a deal that nobody wants even before the referendum i remember talking to some of the people who were going to leave and i had imagined they would have a whole shed to. legislation they had to go up to par so they can live with them so they come out of the traps. and so this is what three year. process and that's partly because. he's very divided to want to do. is very divided so we have all these divisions and they come from cross parties and they cut across the country to. ok let's leave all things moved to venice where where the nation's embattled president is facing fresh challenges to his authority as he begins a second term in office on wednesday a group of exiled military officers call for a nickel duros overthrow saying the army must reject his leadership in the wake of last year's disputed election now their voice their support for the opposition
11:15 am
leader. also has washington's for. his party is ready to form a government open talks us through it all. while has declared himself to be the interim president of venezuela is choosing not to recognize the inauguration of nicolas maduro the president who was just sworn in no election took place to select one was the head of the national assembly at this point he is granting no legitimacy to the venezuelan state and it's worth noting that the u.s. government loves him this is what was said by u.s. vice president mike pence is a dictator with. the power who is. the villas wailin people to the united states strongly supports the courageous decision by. the president of the national assembly to invoke constitutional protections and to clear the country's presidency vacancy now at this point rumors are circulating that donald trump is
11:16 am
planning to recognize the unelected leader good wedo as venezuela's head of state marco rubio the u.s. senator is trumpeting the call from the u.s. his perspective since we recognize the legitimate presidency of the national assembly president pending a new election i think that the time has come to expel them a girl appointed ambassador and allowed the new constitutional president to appoint replacements the washington post even gave a platform to publishing an op ed that he wrote now doesn't that sound a lot like foreign meddling the usa has been pretty open about choosing to side with the opposition against venezuela's government back when she was in office this is what nikki haley said at the united nations the systematic oppression of the venezuelan people has become an active threat to the entire region for the safety and the security of all people in latin america it is time for to go back in september the white house would not deny that it had met with people that were
11:17 am
plotting a coup to overthrow the venezuelan government when asked about the issue it simply gave a vague statement about democracy and since then we've actually heard donald trump calling for the violent overthrow that is wayland government it's a regime that frankly could be toppled very quickly by the military or the military . now the washington post in the new york times two top newspapers in the usa have both published op eds calling for the military to overthrow the elected government in venezuela now u.s. leaders say this is simply out of humanitarian concerns they only want to intervene to rescue those poor oppressed venezuelans or socialism. has bankrupted the oil rich nation. and driven its people into abject. poverty as we've seen the completion of venezuela's collapse into dictatorship we have many options for venezuela including a possible military option there is no greater chose today than the full scale
11:18 am
dismantling of democracy and the heartbreaking humanitarian disaster and get us well but how exactly can u.s. leaders claim that they know what average venezuelans want venezuela is facing a deepening economic political and social crisis but we can't possibly understand this crisis or see a way out of the crisis without understanding u.s. intervention the head of the us has been trying to topple this government since the year two thousand two thousand and ten and one and so i mean the us is not promoting democracy in venezuela the u.s. is stepping up in intervention in a moment in which it sees that it now has an actual possibility of all with growing the government the u.s. particularly is threatening to recognize this opposition as the legitimate government and it is threatening to impose heightened oil sanctions so that it would not only import bennis well than oil and we find it in the united states the purpose is not to bring democracy the u.s.
11:19 am
doesn't intervene in other countries in order to bring democracy to those countries that it intervenes in order to secure its own interests so it if it bolsters recognizes and props up dictatorships when it's in its in the u.s. interest to do so and a choice to bring about regime change through elections in which it intervenes in those actions so the usa says that it wants democracy in venezuela well nothing sounds more democratic than having the military roll into the capital and overthrow the elected leaders caleb mop and martini new york the news continues after the short as a break here on our teachers. you
11:20 am
know world of big partisan movies lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the bath and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic development that only. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. to sit down and talk.
11:21 am
twenty minutes into the program welcome back the u.s. has said it is set to withdraw from a key cold war era arms control agreement with russia at the beginning of next month it comes after american and russian officials met in geneva for talks on the u.s. concluded that moscow is in breach of the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty a position long held by washington. so with the terminator everybody we're going to . the russians and they're not going to see the treaty they've been violated here for many years and it is russia's position that they're not buying place russia has to have been developing the stabilizing weapon systems for more than a decade so one has to ask how do you convince russia back into. that obligation they don't think. that a lot of these facts the united states today just clears it is from russia in the breach of the treaty. would you let them violate
11:22 am
a nuclear agreement take you out of the west is not allowed to do was. not allowed to. say is it invited us inspectors to examine the missiles which washington claims violate the treaty but to no avail russia's deputy foreign minister claimed on wednesday that responsibility for the failure of the agreement lie squarely with america which he ses has been unwilling to negotiate in good faith the. administration change its mind about the pact russia is ready to hold. the curation of the intention to withdraw from the i.n.f. treaty has become just another step in a sequence of similar actions it's obvious that such a course will have the greatest consequences despite the united states declared intention to withdraw from the i.n.f. treaty we are open to further dialogue on ways of preserving the treaty while washington is decision to tear up the agreement has also drawn criticism from many european officials who appear unsettled by the move. we regret the
11:23 am
withdrawal announced by the us we see this treaty as a very important controlled instrument and something that also serves european interests and their full. interests the announcement by the us that is going to withdraw from the i.m.f. accord is regrettable the i.n.f. agreement has been important pillar of our european security architecture for thirty years for us in europe it's of great importance we call on the us to consider the possible consequences if u.s. and russia need to remain engaged in constructive dialogue to preserve the treaty and to ensure. to ensure its cool and verifiable implementation which of course is crucial for europe's and global security while the i.n.f. treaty was signed in one thousand nine hundred eighty seven by ronald reagan and
11:24 am
gorbachev and took effect a year later it's stipulated that both the us and the soviet union destroy all grown based missiles with ranges between five hundred and fifty five hundred kilometers under the agreement neither side how the right to test producer deploying such missiles in the future will investigative journalist rick sterling believes that tearing up the arms control treaty could have catastrophic consequences there are elements in the administration who just want to withdraw they want to escalate the arms race they want to their goal is quote unquote to achieve regain nuclear suprema see this is actually hugely important it'll be very dangerous not just for the united states and russia but for the entire world if we see that continuation of this decline in arms control and a resumption of a full fledged arms race and so people say well there are other nuclear powers such
11:25 am
as china and other countries. but rather than tearing up the i.n.f. treaty what should be done is to expand it to include other other countries that would be a logical way to proceed tearing up the treaty is going to be a very it's going to be a milestone that has potentially disastrous consequences very dangerous. two leading democratic senators in the us are turning up the heat on donald trump requesting access to the interpreters who were present at his meetings but. we believe it to be in the national security interests of the united states that any record of these conversations be preserved and immediately provided to congress we insist that the interpreters for these interactions especially the individual who interpreted for your meeting with president putin in helsinki be made immediately available for interviews with the relevant committees in congress he had a letter follows an article published by the washington post on sunday it claimed
11:26 am
that trump deliberately conceal details of his meetings with law the mirror putin including talks in helsinki last year other democrats have also joined menendez reid in calling on the interpreters to testify do you intend to try to subpoena the interpreter or get the notes we do want to pursue this we certainly could subpoena the interpreter would say subpoena interprets notes the question is on what basis will they refuse because they will refuse and what is our chance of success on that well donald trump has responded to the allegations by lashing out at what he called a fake news media he sees there becoming crazier every day political scientists calling cavil told us that if the interpreters are interviewed anything they say will be taken by the democrats as evidence of wrongdoing on the president's part. i think president obama will try to prevent that and say that the president's record says he doesn't turn over records until he leaves office however if the
11:27 am
reason they are able to. then interview with an interpreter and then of course will make all sorts of claims about whatever communication is provided by the. it is obvious but the democrats want to dismiss as fake and false as anything the president. and does not matter what the interpreter is they're going to make charges and so that amounts to. eight tough look out a tough part of milwaukee next door to international our documentary blood on the doorstep starts in moment stay with us.
11:28 am
