italy's interior minister heads out of france accusing the country of harboring dozens of dangerous fugitives and demanding their extradition. and. this coming to us from the old cock country and defeat from the government on these at this house has expressed its confidence in the government. and the british prime minister narrowly wins a confidence vote in parliament a day after and he's decisively rejected her e.u. divorce deal. are broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow this is our team international and john thomas certainly glad to have you with us right drones the lasers and space sensors donald trump is pushing for the expansion of u.s. missile defense capabilities as the pentagon publishes a review outlining new ways to deal with the. that's facing the country are trying

to takes a closer look at this latest step in a possible new arms race were gardeners of attempts by world's strongest men to dodge questions about a new global arms race well we may have to come to terms with reality in some kind of form it's definitely begun it is not enough to merely keep pace with our adversaries we must outpace them. at every single turn we must pursue the advanced technology and research to guarantee that the united states is always several steps ahead of those who would do us harm who will always be at the forefront of everything with the us withdrawal from the anti-ballistic missile treaty which was the cornerstone in the field of non proliferation of nuclear weapons and deterring an arms race has forced us to respond by creating new weapon systems to overcome these missile defense systems now we hear that russia has an
8:03 pm
advantage yes that's true there is no analogue of this system in the world america's just published the first review of its missile defense program in almost a decade and it besides plans to deploy twenty new ground based interceptors in alaska as well as new radars and sensors besides plans to use laser armed drones and stealthy f. thirty five jets the donald trump administration wants a leap in technological development the president is keen to get a space force space is a new world striding domain. with the space for worse leading the way it's ultimately going to be a very very big part of our defense and obviously. a chance so more than three decades after the ronald reagan and george h.w. bush era the u.s. president is talking about ok maybe not star wars but militarizing space for sure
8:04 pm
the ultimate goal is to be able to take down enemy missiles even before they leave the airspace of what the president calls rogue countries we will ensure that enemy missiles no say on earth or in the skies above it won't happen regardless of the missile type or geographic origins of the attack mr trump did call out north korea and iran but in the program review you'll also find russia and china however when it comes to the whole space force idea a great deal of the tall g.'s yet to be developed so the president wanted to make sure the cash goes that way in a speech but if you thought all of this wasn't about the nearest future we think the best approach is a network of satellites and low orbit we're getting started on that this year among the threats donald trump pointed out specifically were hypersonic missiles a system capable of launching such weapons called was successfully tested by russia
8:05 pm
at the end of december. that. you use the one they have and go system is invulnerable to any current missile defense system of a potential enemy this is a big victory for a country according to the russian side the reason they're ramping up their r. and d. in strategic defenses is america's overblown military budget and everything it's being spent on parity means global security. we spoke to former u.s. congressman ron paul who says this is not just about geopolitics. well i think the biggest issue here is somebody going to make a lot of money on it you know it reminds me of star wars if you hear back that never really develop and people got excited about it and you know i'm all for having defensive weapons if necessary but quite frankly i can't quite see the

danger that they're talking about that we have to now go much further into debt on something that may take many many years and there's questions on how well it would work but we're already running a tree and our debt every year and in this this can't be paid for other than bar and money and i just don't see see the danger that that they're claiming but there's a lot of a lot of support for it especially the people who get to build this is a boondoggle for a lot of people so i think the military industrial complex is very very powerful very very influential and every congressman in the into states here has some type of military operation that is they build weapons so there's an interest in the house and the lobbying is very heavy and frequently it goes along further than most people would guess that it should. there's been

government must remove must remove clearly once and for all the prospect of the catastrophe of it no jail break certainly and all the chaos that would come as a result of do not take this responsibility likely in my government will continue its work to increase our prosperity the opposition should we gods because. i true so may as soon expected in brussels for crisis talks on brags that she will be hoping to win concessions from e.u. officials and to negotiate changes to the current deal that may well then present her plan b. to parliament on monday m.p.'s will debate and vote on it on the twenty ninth of january currently the u.k. is scheduled to leave the e.u. on the twenty ninth of march as things stand it may leave with no deal at all on the world trade organization terms. and meanwhile france has activated its no deal

brokered plan setting aside fifty million euros for any contingency and a german foreign minister. says the berlin is also stepping up preparations for a hard brags it. is that. we are prepared for every scenario we will continue and step up our planning for a chaotic breaks it. throughout her tenure trees a man has promised to deliver on the results of the two thousand and sixteen pregnant referendum but now fulfilling those promises seems to be in doubt artie's ice alley reports. a government document has been leaked outlining how long it will take for legislation to pass that. little rise to the holding of a second referendum the so-called people's vote guarding the u.k.'s decision it's a review of the elite you know this document as dramatic by civil servants and it was handed out to me and police during meetings between downing street officials government officials and goes members of parliament and it's a one hundred page of
8:10 pm
a memo and it says that it would take around seven months for that legislation to be drafted and to pass and then another twelve weeks for the electoral commission who are responsible for organizing elections here in the u.k. it would take them twelve weeks to come up with the question that would be on the ballot paper and the potential question on the potential second referendum is also something that would be hotly contested and hotly debated by the different sides of that debate now that time frame which is around ten months to a year would mean that it would be impossible to hold a second referendum by march twenty ninth and not of course is the date that would that the u.k. is the e.u. so presumably if it is to be an option then there would need to be an extension of article fifty and for the u.k. to continue to remain in the e.u. while they try to sort themselves out now the government they've been asked about
8:11 pm
this document and they say it's merely for all illustrated purposes and that they're not planning on proposing a second referendum it was a short paper setting out factual detail on the number of months that would be required it was produced to inform the discussion we expected this issue to be brought to the meeting it was illustrated only opposition is that a second referendum won't be happening and it's not just the conservatives who are under pressure to hold that second referendum jeremy corbyn he's the leader of the labor party the leader of the opposition here in the u.k. . it is thought that up to a hundred of his own labor m.p.'s would like him to hold and put out the position that labor wants a second referendum but of course with the court it is a little bit hesitant to do so because many labor voters particularly in the north of england also voted to leave the e.u. . but nevertheless laying out his condition for his support for a second referendum also said made it very clear that all the options are on the
8:12 pm
table including the public vote option which we make clear in our conference motion which was i have to remind you unanimously agreed by our conference last september . and all of this comes as a new poll by a u.k. of indicates that if there was to be a second referendum that fifty six percent of respondents indicated that they would now vote to remain in the e.u. while forty four percent said that they would leave now that would be a larger tied around of course fifty two percent of the u.k. voting public voted to leave the e.u. in june of twenty sixteen so that would be a remarkable swing but still would do nothing to get rid of the significant divisions which are risen up as a result of the bags that process. the leader of the u.k. independence party and mark on the end of the oxford crisis research institute gave us their thoughts on the impasse in parliament and what it means for the country.
8:13 pm
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 can't leave without a deal and of course you ended up with a deal that nobody wants even before the referendum i remember talking to some of the people who organize in the leave campaign and i had imagined that they would have a whole shed drew of parts of the european legislation they had to go up or so they could quite happily live with them so they would come out of the traps to go further if they wanted to and so this is what we're offering instead it took the year to begin the process and that's partly because the conservative party is very divided to want to do the opposition is very divided so we have all these divisions and they council cross parties and they cut across the country to. italy's
