trump's impeachment the u.s. president is hit with a slew of allegations of wrongdoing but he says he's not going anywhere. you can. impeach somebody that you're in the great job that's the way i view it. and italy's interior minister head south of france accusing the country of harboring dozens of dangerous fugitives and demanding their extradition. a very warm welcome you watching the weekly here on r.t. international all the latest headlines and around the pub the stories that shapes the week but first the u.k. was thrust deeper into political turmoil this week the two reason mays proposed the e.u. divorce deal was dealt a crushing defeat in paula months the following day though the prime minister saw off a no confidence vote called by the leader of the opposition leading the country no

closer to a breakthrough on bragg's it has a quick recap of the drama. that photo would. you know what i'm doing with. the country and up here and this old me to find cool i'll little cult wouldn't step five hundred years from now we got a result of these question reject this deal reject this deal because of the hobbit could do. the eyes of the right two hundred into the now used to the last four hundred and thirty two shows the new savvy the no use having it is clear that the house does not support this deal.

they would have resolved i mean the country would be able to choose the government that they want. i still write three hundred and see the names to the letter three hundred twenty five i'm pleased that this house has expressed its confidence in the government say are that. really you know how they where they will come. in the wake of those votes that was further control of the sea on thursday this time of the publication of the leaked government documents the paper explores the possibility of holding a second referendum and estimates that the whole process could take up to a year well that includes seven months to lay the legal groundwork and a further three months at least for testing the question well that leak came as a surprise to many as to reason why has remained adamant that she will deliver on

bragg says well downing street confirms that the paper is genuine it didn't. i do the government has been actively planning for a second vote it says the paper is purely for illustrative purposes and has reiterated the prime minister's position that britain will leave the e.u. meanwhile the leader of the opposition labor party has set out the conditions under which he would support a second vote blue options are on the 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. even before the referendum i remember talking to some of the people organizing the leave campaign and i had imagined that they would have a whole should draw 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 of to go further if they wanted to and so this is what we're for against it it took three years we've begin to make that process and that's partly because the conservative

party is very divided on what to do your position is very divided so we have all these divisions and they cut across parties and they cut across the country to a very simple those found that if a second referendum was to be held a majority of voters would now choose to remain in the e.u. it shows the biggest surge in support for remains since the twenty sixteen brigs it folks and those poly boyko explains a rerun of the referendum wouldn't be without precedent. the people may have voted but the british parliament is in political turmoil over what the u.k.'s departure from the e.u. should look like and if some politicians get their way whether it should happen at all to this issue but to the electorate what else can we possibly do. to the british public to get back. to reconsider this brics it is a cause for deception but most of those people that promise to help you know why we

bothering to leave and. still subject to all the rules over on the continent these slighted politicians will be hoping that perhaps the imperfect but stable relationship between brussels and london could be heading towards their union if a deal is impossible and no one wants no deal then who will finally have the courage to say he was the only positive solution is so if you think the people have voted then think again governments have been known to ignore a referendum result or to. ireland learned this the hard way twice in two thousand and one after a smallish campaign irish voters rejected expanding the bloc east island effectively put a spoke in the e.u.'s wheels when it was keen to invite nations like romania and

bulgaria into the club so the e.u. irish government invested in a big yes campaign and a year later the vote was rerun. the majority of votes against the proposal. was the irish decision on the use defacto constitution the lisbon treaty suffered the same fate majority in favor of the proposal. that i see dear sold as a sign of confidence for the irish people in european union as a sign of their desire to be all hearted members of dupion union. before the break that shambles it was the greek debt crisis keeping e.u. officials put night. in twenty fifteen the new greek prime

minister staged a referendum in which greek citizens overwhelmingly rejected the e.u.'s austerity policies but brussels imposed them anyway those living in the birthplace of democracy well pleased with what they saw as an undemocratic process. and this one may not be related to the e.u. but it is related to britain in twenty twelve voters in the city of manchester rejected having elected mayor but a couple of years later david cameron's westminster government imposed them on the region anyway late last year the e.u. is top court ruled that the u.k. can unilaterally stop gregg's it stressing that the twenty sixteen referendum here wasn't legally binding so technically in terms of the law the u.k. government is free to do whatever it chooses be it plowing ahead with leaving or

nothing into river shore stopping brags it would be a failure to deliver on the will of the people but after two and a half years of political turmoil here in the u.k. public opinion has shifted the latest polls now show that some fifty six percent of u.k. voters would say no to bragg's it and given the circumstances there are now plenty of politicians he can break the bread as it promises and sell it as the noble thing to do well this calls for that second referendum continue to grow to reason may well be back in parliament on monday to present a revised version of a brics a plan to end piece. critics of donald trump hit the president with a barge of new misconduct claims this week they range from obstructing justice to lying to holding the u.s. hostage over his controversial plan for a five billion dollar border war and for his opponents there is only one solution

of the ever ports. from dirty filthy dossiers to sexual misconduct allegations illicit business deals on and on you name it chances are trump was accused of it weekly this week it's the seat president donald trump directed his longtime attorney michael cohen to lie to congress according to two federal law enforcement officials involved in an investigation of the matter and even as trump told the public he had no business deals with russia the sources said trump and his children if donald trump jr received regular detailed updates about the real estate development from cohen whom they put in charge of the project specifically to alleged law enforcement officials anonymous of course as is tradition claim to have seen documents regarding the proposed construction of

a trump tower in moscow markedly one of the original authors couldn't clearly state whether he is even seen the documents is our answer would put any lawyer to shame i don't think we've said that we haven't remember but i will america and your colleague said on c.n.n. this morning that you were briefed on these document i'll just say that we we've seen documents we've been briefed and we're very confident in our report you can imagine how embarrassing it must have been for buzz feed when robert mueller by no means a fan of trump and the guy investigating the us president came out and dismissed these reports buzz feed's description of specific statements and characterization of documents and testimony and not accurate yet still the pundits call it a bombshell why is anyone's guess the other recent bombshell came from the

washington post which claim. in that trump tried to see details of one of his meetings with putin according to current and former officials anonymous as is tradition the constraints that trump impose the part of a broader person by the presidents of shielding his communications with putin from public scrutiny and preventing even high ranking officials if he's been destruction from fully knowing what he has told one of the united states marine adversaries the bombshell kind of fizzled out in the twenty fourth paragraph where the washington post admits that trump allows most of his contact with putin to be monitored like his meeting in hamburg where then secretary of state rex tillerson was present trump of course this misses it all as fake news attacks against him defamation never work for russia you know that is are better than anybody i've ever worked for

russia not only did i never work for russia i think it's a disgrace that you even asked that question because it's all big fat hoax it's just dark but the democrats being democrats now want to raise hell over this they want the interpreter from the helsinki meeting between trump and putin to spill the beans they hope anything to get a trump but if i had a choice i'd rather not do that with the with the interpreters but we may have no choice we'll have to see down down the road what happens but we want to get to the truth impeachment they cry impeachment impeachment impeachment almost fetish of theirs at this point the trump seems particularly concerned you can't impeach somebody that's doing a great job that's the way i view it. the italian interior minister selvi me has

called on emanuel necron to hand over tens a fugitive terrorist suspects believed to be sheltering in france with the story. after decades on the run one of italy's most new tourist criminals finally stepped back on to home soil says operatives steve charged with four murders was part of the so-called red brigades that terrorized the country back in the seventy's. cuny is into a prison sentence but tiste escaped to france now under the so-called to me to hold on doctoring by which foreign terrorists were given safe haven if they had to

announce their pos crimes fraunces welcome to him with open arms for decades he enjoyed something of a celebrity status becoming an author he mingled with the literary elite and 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 italy the fugitives that should not be drinking champagne under the eiffel tower who should be rotting in jail in italy it's only 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. i think that of the forty years we could find a solution to this story as has already been done in the history of the world in civilized countries it's time to turn the page but i've never done what they accuse me of i am absolutely innocent 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 a big but french officials have said extradition conte to be pursued in most of the cases as the statute of limitations here would quash the proceedings with ten shoes 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 the president has any intention of allowing salvini to claim a home run show that even ski altie should let certain law principles still to calming toting travels bring for venezuela's president of the us backed opposition clamor for regime change as among the stories after the break. what else should seem wrong. but. just don't call. me. yet to seep out just the attic. and in detroit was betrayed. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

you want to make sure that the quality is not just a slogan of misery but it also is associated with the rise of the start of the believe how can you have a right at the start. by having people who are rich or saving investing. roldan in increasing the size of the national park so that you can distribute pull to every. welcome back we need fighting this week in the libyan capital tripoli left thirteen

people dead and fifty two others wounded according to the country's health ministry sadly a journalist who had worked with the associated press and artie's video news agency reps lee was among those killed mohamed ben khalifa had been contributing to roughly since twenty sixteen and had produced around thirty stories for the agency his colleagues have described him as a courageous and talented journalist he survived by his wife and seven month old daughter here are some of the last images he captured during his reporting along with a recap of recent events in tripoli. what

it looked. like what. it was a miserable ruptly was saddened to learn of the death of journalist mohamed bin khalifa who lost his life during clashes in tripoli over the past three years he worked with us to deliver high quality reports in difficult circumstances we send our deepest condolences to his family. but as well as embattled president is facing fresh challenges to his own thora tay as he begins his second term in office on wednesday a group of exiled military officers called for nicolas maduro overthrow saying the army must reject his leadership in the wake of last may's disputed election they voiced their support for the opposition leader one kwaito he also has more shinton sperm backing and says his party is ready to form a government with more on the growing crisis his kellett more pay. one boy who has

declared himself to be the interim president of venezuela he's choosing not to recognize the inauguration of nicolas maduro the president who was just sworn in no election took place to select one who 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 us government loves him this is what was said by us vice president mike pence. is a dictator with no legitimate claim to power who is the precise the venezuelan people who for. 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 planning to recognize the unelected leader grade zero 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 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 men to 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 venezuelan government. a regime that frankly could be toppled very quickly by the military as the military decides to do that now the washington post in the new york times two top newspapers in the usa have both published op ads 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 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 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 then 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 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 its 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. another day ping scandal has ranks the wildest sports this time it's one of its small gentle disciplines that's being affected and in a rather unlikely way. we were away and how the ladies lawlessly they went to the bathroom for ten minutes and came back with a huge audience everything runs well for them they go to the toilet and them don't throw another bad ball when they come back.

because i woke up the dutch certainly lost against the belgians and found an excuse i've never heard of could kind of competitions. took a look at it again no i stick to your own pasties but. if you're in the olympic sport you get money and then we console a possible problem with cocaine. and if you have something you'd like to say would love to herit so do get in touch by following us on social media and moving our comments that were back in about thirty minutes with the latest see that. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy on sunday shouldn't let it be an arms race is on often spearing dramatic development only

personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president injury. or something want to watch. it. right to be close it's like that before three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of. the city. because you know provision out of my pocket i want to. get. there so you'll know i lost his bus because i just got the. resources

you know. of any of those in person but that's almost i didn't that this video. showing us you know what i was you know. you know just i mean what i'm already but i was just going to go eat and eat i remember the lord. has been up and i must admit that he feels i just will get us on the same list but those were the ost. those people are going to respond on one of this but i was just this for this part of this i'm with. my family fussy you could all credible but you just but that's already yes equestrian he thought of getting up there calling with you you're seeing him in ticket yeah my thought aloud to me just got to go you.

know and welcome to all of them are situated between russia and china then the goalie is the world's most landlocked country and yet according to my guest today isn't a strategic weakness but rather a competitive advantage how has one goal they managed to overcome its geographical limit. patients and can if used as experienced to punch above its weight in the geopolitical brain of to discuss that i'm now joined by them dean sold but tarrant uncle is minister of foreign affairs and this is good to talk to you thank you very much for its time thank you for the nutrition now we are recording this interview on the sidelines of the valdai forum and many of the discussions here today are about q. crane and how it's being sandwiched between russia and the west like to a conflict mongolia also finds itself within two great powers russia and china and

yet from what i understand it is a source of development rather than discord how do you explain that well. we're developing the. ballast relationship with our neighbors and it's our priority. with russia and china we have strategic partnership and really it is a trust beasts confidence relationship the most important thing is really the fact that you give priority to this relationship you because you're the relationship on your strengths of course we're different countries that means we have differences of business that we do not have differences but it's very important to menage those differences and to capitalize on your strengths but from what i understand it took you sometime to arrive at that perspective because you said in one of the interviews that before mongolian used to view its landlocked status as an imitation.
