there are cool under which these guys are going through to do it it just needs to. need to be built. on but the v.a. is ours drugs you need to be built. they've really shouldn't be looked at like numbers they should be looked at by people if they go to a veteran center for health should be considered as someone who really needs attention. but. the u.k. is plunged into chaos as m.p.'s overwhelmingly rejects the prime minister's gregg's it deal but gives hope that in a vote of no confidence the following day. polls intensify for donald

trump's impeachment as the us president is hit by the slew of allegations of wrongdoing but he says he's not going anywhere. you can. impeach somebody that sure in your great job that's the way i view. and italy's interior minister head south to trounce accusing the country of harboring dozens of dangerous fugitives and demanding that extradition and. a very warm welcome you watching the weekend here on r.t. international the latest headlines and a roundup of the stories that shaped the week but first the u.k. was thrust deeper into political term all this week a softer to reason may is proposed to devolve steel was dealt a crushing defeat him paul amends the following day though the prime minister's thoughts are no clue. confidence votes called by the nature of the opposition

leaving the country no closer to a breakthrough on breaks it has a quick recap of the drama. i think. that voters who. are you know what i'm doing with. the country end up here and this old me to find cool i'll little cult products that five hundred years from now we got a result of these question reject this deal reject this deal because of the hobbit could do. you know use of the right two hundred into the no use to the last four hundred thirty to show the new savvy the no use having it is clear that the house does not support this deal.

they would have resigned and the country would be able to choose the government the thing wants. i still write three hundred and see the numbers to the left three hundred twenty five i'm pleased that this house has expressed its confidence in the gulf region are there. going to be there any. other way that they will come. in the wake of those votes that was further controversy on thursday this time over the publication of a leaked government document the paper explores the possibility of holding a second referendum and estimates that the whole process would take up to a year that includes seven months to lay the legal ground work and a further three months at least for testing the question well the leak came as a surprise. to many as to reason may has remained adamant that she will deliver on

bragg's it or downing street confirmed that the paper is genuine it denied 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 person will least 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 made 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 the parcel they could quite happily live with them so they would come out of the traps after the referendum if they wanted to and so this is what we're for against it it took three years to even begin to make that process and that's partly because the

conservative party is very divided on what to do but it's also true the opposition is very divided so we have all these divisions and they cut across parties and they cut across the country to a recent poll has found that if a second referendum were to be held the majority of voters would now to use to remain in the e.u. it shows the biggest surge in support for remains since the twenty sixteen braggers it faute this policy boyko explains a rerun of a 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. 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 what the only positive solution is so if you think their 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 and european union as a sign of their desire to be all hearted members of the opinion. before the break that shambles it was the greek debt crisis keeping e.u. officials are 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 men as 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 keen to break the bread as it promised and sell it as the noble thing to do. well as course of that second referendum continue to grow to reason they will be back in parliament on monday to present a revised version of her brags it plan to m.p.'s. critics of donald trump and the president with a bounty 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 reports. 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's even seen the documents his. would put any lawyer to shame i don't think we've said that we haven't remember but i will say that i'm very confident that 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 reporting 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 u.s. 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. 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 pattern 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 dismisses it all as fake news attacks against him defamation never work for russia you know that is serveti never work 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 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. the italian interior minister mattel's salvini

has called on emanuel necron to hand over tens of fugitive terrorist suspects believed to be sheltering in france with the story has shown it to penske. off to decades on the run one of italy's most new tourist criminals finally steps 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. to me 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 past crimes france welcomed 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 to fugitives that should not be drinking champagne under the eiffel tower who should be rotting in jail and it's only it's only world's 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 civilised countries it's time to turn the page but i've never done what they accuse me of 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 a 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. shall let the law. troubles brewing for venezuela's president as the us backed opposition climate for regime change among all stories after the break. what politicians do you suppose meeting. to put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and she. wanted. you to go right to the press it's like before three of the more people. interested always in the why. should.

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 rising to start looking for by having people reach zero savings investing. broadening increasing the size of the national. so that you can stephen hall everything. welcome back when huge 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 on dottie's video news agency ruptly was among those killed mohammad ben khalifa had been contribution to our police since twenty sixteen and the producer. around thirty stories for the agency his colleagues have described him as a courageous and talented journalist he's 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. this . was one.

of them is a 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 i'm battle president is facing fresh challenges to his own authority as he begins his second term in office on wednesday a group of exiled military officers called for nicolas maduro is overthrow saying the army must reject his leadership in the wake of last may's disputed election and i've always test support for the opposition leader one kwaito he also has washington's backing and says his party is ready to form a government with more on the growing crisis his capable. one boito 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

a warning in the election took place just what one way to it was the head of the national assembly at this point granting milage out of a seat to that is whaling state and it's worth noting that the us go. 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 us his perspective since we recognize the legitimate president c. 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've actually heard donald trump calling for the violent overthrow that is wailing government it's a regime that frankly could be toppled very quickly by the military 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 you. yes leaders say this is simply out of humanitarian concerns they only want to intervene to rescue those poor old pressed venezuelans for 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 in the heart breaking 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 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 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 elections 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 marty new york. now the doping scandals rocked the world of sports this time it's one of the more dental disciplines that's been affected and in iraq that unlikely way. i think. we were way ahead and had played flawlessly than they went to the bathroom for ten minutes and came back with huge eyes everything went well for them they go to the toilet and them don't throw another bad ball when they come back. and the dutch certainly last against the belgians and found an excuse i've never

heard of cocaine in its own competitions. ok. kayne no i stick to beer and pasties. if you are in the index fort you get money and then we console the possible problem with cocaine. what about the latest the top of the hour was the of a. whole make its manufacture consent to step into a public wells. when the ruling classes protect themselves. in the final merry go round lift learned that one percent. we can all middle of the room sick. feeling the real news.

when i came back from iraq out there was her was cocaine methamphetamine. anything that's altering trying to get us out of. that bad mindset using the chemical that would be self medicating. i want to be drinking and drinking ino new just killing myself but drinking alcohol links drink to get drunk alcoholics drink to feel normal. that's why it's this way drug addicts do what they do shop while still bringing their. star cool under which these guys are going through to do it it just means to. reduce need to be helped and not good pushed on by the v.a.'s are as drugs go and stuff they need to be

built. and they just really shouldn't be looked at like numbers they should be looked at like people if they go to a veteran center for health issues be considered as someone who really needs attention. or flick there's someone else living inside of me or controlling my body. the byproduct of that drug is the cause like severe depression. because it literally made him into a zombie it's crazy. you know we don't have to do anything it's not our fault since crazy and all that. took years traumatic takes time to get rid of.

you are. not. everyone's story is different are going to half is there for

a young know what's actually going to hit you. like i was pretty comfortable in my life before this happened. earthenware dogs for a. got me into this. you know i was a middle child. contrary he was the day. this is some day he was doing to just you know make sure he can money in his pocket. illicit i had to look out for you can but nothing happened to to the bait. i just hope that people can understand that i was a person who didn't deserve to die who didn't deserve to be shot fourteen times.
