work to increase our prosperity and the opposition should we come up and smell the coffee ok. with the latest on what's happening in westminster his i was to see a choker what we have going on right now is these political games are figuring out exactly what broke that is going to look like and who is going to end 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 did sixty badges because of so many different views on how exactly it should shape up and indeed a very busy difficult time for the british prime minister she has massively failed 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 managed to survive by a very narrow slim majority of just nineteen votes
12:04 pm
a vote of no confidence that took place here and now. well the question is what happens next indeed and what we've seen as recent may need to be really after surviving sort of you know conference call this an opposition party leader jerzy kervyn who misuse of that vote of no confidence to get together for talks and start moving forward with securing out what to do next he however declined that meeting and he says new talks will be taking place until a new deal brags that 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. 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
12:05 pm
for now we heard 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 unravel 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 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 the keeping the idea of a no deal drugs that on the table anything is possible and including a second referendum but also said made it very clear that all the options are on the table including the public vote option which we made clear in our conference motion which was i have to remind you unanimously agreed by our conference last
12:06 pm
september eleventh. however the difficulty there is one point. 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. kicks in so he's also written a letter to theresa me earlier today urging her if she if you want to deal with 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
12:07 pm
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 bricks it. just a recap on the possible scenarios and what's ahead in the next couple of months to resume is soon expected in brussels to crisis talks and brags that she'll be hoping to win concessions from e.u. officials in negotiations as to the current deal ismay will then present a plan b. to parliament on monday and peace will debate and vote on it on the twenty ninth of january currently the u.k. shuttle to leave on the twenty ninth of march and as things stand it may leave with no deal a toll on the world trade organization terms. of the independence party and mark almond of the oxford crisis research institute gave us their thoughts on the impossible parliament and what it means for the country. the establishment remind us of being counter-attacking for the last two and
12:08 pm
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 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 to have a whole show. to go. with them so they come out of the traps. so this is what we. process and that's partly because. your position is very divided so we have these divisions. and they cut across the country. and israel is embattled president is facing fresh challenges to his authority as he
12:09 pm
begins his second term in office on wednesday a group of exiled is called. saying the army must reject his leadership in the wake of last year's disputed election they support for the opposition. he also has washington's backing his party is ready to form a government with more on the crisis his. one 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 warning in no election took place just like one was the head of the national assembly at this point 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 legitimate claims of power who is a pristine villa's wailin people who form. the united states strongly supports the
12:10 pm
courageous decision by. the president of the national assembly to invoke constitutional protections i'm declare the country's presidency vacant now at this point rumors are circulating that donald trump is 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 president of the national assembly president pending a new election i think that the time has come to expel them a dural appointed embassadors and allow 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
12:11 pm
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 many to go back in september the white house would not deny that it had met with people that were 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 actually heard donald trump calling for the violent overthrow of the bettas weyland government it's a regime that frankly could be toppled very quickly by the military of the military . now the washington post in the new york times two top newspapers in the usa have both published an 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 socialism has bankrupted the oil rich nation. and driven its people. into abject. poverty
12:12 pm
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 dismantling of democracy and the heartbreaking humanitarian disaster in venezuela but how exactly can u.s. leaders claim that they know what havre to 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 end the us has been trying to topple this government since the year two thousand two thousand 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 overthrowing the government the u.s. particularly is threatening to recognize this opposition as the legitimate
12:13 pm
government and it is threatening to impose heightened oil sanctions so that it would not only import bennis well than oil and refine it in the united states the purpose is not to bring democracy the u.s. 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 role in the capital and overthrow the elected leaders caleb mop and marty new york. minister. has accused fonts of whomping fugitive terrorist suspects than his calling on and money on town level with the story his charlatan penske. off to decades on the run

12:15 pm
politicians now the success in bringing him to justice has led to italy to call on other countries including france to stop hall bring terrorists. to the french president to return to the fugitives that should not be drinking champagne under the eiffel tower who should be rotting in jail eats it silly walls france to hand over more than thirty over these champagne terrorists. the list includes nisus coachmen n.-t. who said to live in this house south of paris.
12:16 pm
i think that over the forty years we could find a solution to this story as has already been done in the history of the world in civilised countries it's time to turn the page but i've never done what they accuse me of i am absolutely a warrant from an n.t.'s extradition is currently being looked at and it's likely that he won't be alone in wondering if onse is about to give him up but there is big but french officials have said extradition can't be pursued in most of the cases as the statute of limitations here would quash the proceedings with tensions between the two countries already at a tipping point over migrants the forthcoming elections and italy support for the movement they seems to be no sign that president has any intention of allowing salvini to claim a home run. r.t.
12:17 pm
show let. the u.s. could exit a cold war arms control deal in the coming weeks unless certain conditions are met by russia more or less story after this break. you know world big partisan movies a 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 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.
12:18 pm
make this manufacture consent to the public wealth. when the ruling class is protect themselves. when the final merry go round lifts only the one percent. nor middle of the room sick. in the real news room. welcome back to the program whether to follow the path of the cost of an issue and the exchange of an honorary award with a scottish dog president putin's official visit has brought about a number of new deals and seemingly some historical ties for more on the talks and
12:19 pm
it has shot down off. certainly a very symbolic visit by vladimir putin to belgrade after being somewhat divided right now in the geopolitical sense a means it has taken cool some building up close a time. he's with the european union but also wants to stay close friend of russia as well a thing that could prove indeed challenging to other states while serving is certainly trying to play this card more than twenty documents have been signed here in belgrade today looting deals in the energy and transport sectors we've got to realize that words we are ready to lengthen the turkish stream to european countries and to european consumers we have more than enough resources for that we are dealing with serbia on this issue this is also true for infrastructure development and also if a transitional infrastructure development on serbian territory we are ready to invest in it and these investments will be about one point four billion dollars but
12:20 pm
speaking of the divisions i should say they're quite visible in the streets like on wednesday for example thousands of people marched through central belgrade in opposition rallies chanting slogans against the incumbent government today something of response again thousands of people marched through the serbian capital this time a pro-government rally also welcoming the russian president in serbia but staying on the positive note we also know that here the vladimir putin has been gifted a copy of a dog a certain type of shepherd we've been told so if my memory serves me right it will be the fourth dog to be home by vladimir putin so he will be probably leaving the country on a positive note. the u.s. has said it's sad to withdraw from a cult or arms control agreement with russia at the beginning of next month comes after american and russian officials met in geneva for talks on the u.s.
12:21 pm
side tilted at that moscow is in the intermediate range and u.k. forces position long held by washington so we're going to terminate everybody we're going to pull out and that's that's important to the russians and they're not going to see the traditional they've been violated here for many years and. it is russia's position that they're not but what russia has developed been developing into destabilizing weapon systems for more than a decade so one has to ask how do you convince the russians to come back and to put up with geishas they don't think. that a lot of these facts the united states today declares it is from russia in material breach of the treaty. would not to let them violate the nuclear agreement to go out if it was. not allowed to do whatever it was not allowed to ask says it's invited us inspectors to examine the missiles which washington times violate the treaty but to no avail russia's deputy foreign minister claimed on wednesday that responsibility for the failure of the agreement lies squarely with america which he
12:22 pm
says has been unwilling to negotiate in good faith despite that the timid pigeon has said that should they try to administration change its mind about the pact russia is ready to hold talks the victory over the intention to withdraw from the island of treaty has become just another step in a sequence of similar actions it's obvious that such a course will have the greatest consequence is this what 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. washington's decision to tear up the agreement is also joint criticism from many european officials who appear and settled by the move. we regret the withdrawal announced by the us we see this treaty as a very important arms control instrument and something that also serves european interests and therefore also interest the announcement by the us that it's going to withdraw from the i.m.f. accord is regrettable the i.n.f.
12:23 pm
agreement has been an 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. it to ensure its cool and verifiable implementation which of course is crucial for europe's and global security the i.n.f. treaty was signed in one thousand and seven by ronald reagan to mikhail gorbachev and took effect a year later it stipulated that both the us and the soviet union destroy all ground based missiles with ranges between five hundred and fifty five hundred kilometers under the agreement neither side had the right to test produce or deploy any such missiles in the future. investigative journalist rick sterling believes that
12:24 pm
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 supremacies 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 it. and a resumption of a full fledged arms race and some people say well there are other nuclear powers such 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.
12:25 pm
two leading democratic senators in the us a turning up the hey tom tom chimed requesting access to the entire protests who were present at his meetings with vladimir putin 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 the democrats led to follows an article published by the washington post on sunday it claimed that trump deliberately concealed details of his meetings with vladimir putin including talks in helsinki last year the democrats have also joined menendez and 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
12:26 pm
on what basis will they refuse because they will refuse and what is our chance of success on that downtime has responded to the allegations by lashing out at what he calls the fake news media he says that becoming crazier every day political scientists calling cavell told us that if they interpret is interviewed anything they say will be taken by the democrats as evidence of wrongdoing on the president's policy. i think president will try to prevent that and say that the president records act says he doesn't have to turn over records until he leaves office however if cited some reason layer able to get an interview with an interpreter then daily of course will make all sorts of claims about whatever communication is provided by the target or. it is obvious by now that the democrats want to dismiss as
12:27 pm
fake and false as anything the president trumps and so it does not matter what the interpreter says they're going to make charges and say it amounts to collusion. that's on news from now i'll be back in around twenty minutes time with more updates but first on international it's watching the hoax. there's albeit a whole costs going on in america for profit and the drug companies are killing millions of americans for profit and if no politician does anything about it i mean i look around the world and i see this relational and the frats protests and i see
