that is the end of it for the city but for now the mountains of moist only grow higher. here on earth. a lot. of us are back with the patience to work. breaking news this hour moscow announces it is also suspending its participation in a cage nuclear treaty is simply a response to washington's decision to pull out of the agreement for six months

also if you come from yellow best protest gathering across the country the twelve consecutive weekend these are live pictures from paris this time around there they are dedicating their marches to demonstrate his injured by the police. and activists in britain are raising the alarm over a form of child abuse designed to stop breast developing in young girls they speak to victims of the groups and practice. pools. was paid to do. not look at me. hello welcome just on three pm here in moscow you're watching international now we start with breaking news because the russian president vladimir putin has announced that moscow is also suspending its participation in a case nuclear treaty he's calling it a mirror response to washington's decision to pull out of the i.m.f. agreement for six months over alleged. by russia commenting on the prospect of

dialogue with the us putin said washington showed little enthusiasm. for many years we have proposed disarmament talks but our initiatives have not found the support of our partners in fact they always find a pretext for dismantling the global security system that's why i've asked our foreign and defense ministries to keep the doors open for dialogue but also not to initiate any talks on the issue. ok let's get more details now on the court he's covering the story for us good afternoon to you don moscow is issued its response then what's next. well andy after years of fruitless talks about the possible the possibility of u.s. disarmament russia has decided the time for empty talks is now over russian president vladimir putin said that the u.s. is lack of support for russia's suggestions and proposals for u.s.

disarmament is under is undermining international security and so this mere response is not only the suspension of the russia's participation in the treaty but it's also about to continue research to stay on par with the united states however russian president vladimir putin also said that this will not mean that russia will embroil itself in a costly and drawn out arms race with the west now russian foreign minister sergei lavrov said that the us has been violating this treaty since one thousand nine hundred ninety nine specifically with their usage of unmanned drones for military purposes he also took some jabs at the american a forty one vertical launching system used to launch missiles and it's used by the u.s. navy it's been in service since the one nine hundred eighty six and has right now a success rate of ninety nine percent and now russia's saying that that's actually

against the treaty as well. since twenty four teams the u.s. has deployed in europe it's in q four two one missile launchers we trust you to before american tomahawk missiles which is the direct violation of the. launchers are based in romania and directed to be constructed in poland. now some in the russian government are also saying that political mere responses are not exactly enough either the russian ministry of defense said russia needs to take under to undertake some recalibration of their own. three three m. fifty four caliber missiles right now they have an eight hundred thousand kilometer radius for maritime targets and a seven million kilometer radius for land targets but now they can only be launched from the ocean so the ministry of defense is talking about recalibrating it for land launches. just doesn't work on and up and

russia's caliber missile launch systems from maritime to land based ones we also suggest beginning to work on a new land based ballistic missile short to medium range. of course the treaty itself hasn't yet been scrapped its only participation has only been suspended but with these diplomatic solutions looking less and less likely we're definitely going to see some serious developments of this story in the in the near future in the coming days sure ok thanks don't know so don't quarter for us there in the center of moscow where we can discuss this a bit further with. he's director of the center for international business ethics he's based in beijing be good to get the china perspective on all of this good afternoon what has been the chinese reaction to this over the i.m.f. agreement and the fact that russia and the u.s. have decided to suspend their involvement. well it's there disappointing

a lot has been a our own to bear have the peace time particularly after the scraps up there to walk on the coat. to really you know was really destructive in for people to earn their prosperity by the arms race between the superpowers a sector so the earned peace is really at stake being this meant told by the u.s. action and the by that connor actions of other superpowers of russia so. i would like to see that. this piece kind of really be maintained by gauging dialogue by buildings and thirty and by building trust of course china is there also very firm to defend its national security so. therefore the. china would urge the world community to watch very closely

what is happening and that the new type of balance that is in provoked by the united states is really a very dangerous sign so the sort of possible in circle moment over a china's economic and military might. be just really watched and to see what could really do afterwards trump is always say. he recently he's been saying that he would be open to a new treaty with china be open to joining a new change the perhaps between america russia and itself. well it is always the principle of china. china will never aggress over other territories over other nations' national security and china will a lot of peace because of the four decades of open door and reform the chinese

people earned through their hard work and also through their close perception of what really peace means for people's life so china would like to see world peace on the regional peace. so i think chinese government is. getting a very much involved. defending the chinese national interest by bringing the the patient from the escalation so i think china is proposing a friendly and sincere dialogue so i think china's position is rather open as how to maintain the peace and stability of the world and particularly on the asian continent ok so you just to summarize you think perhaps potentially china could be open to you talking at least potentially back to new agreement that would involve

will involve all three simple powerless. that's right i think of course you know this is really a matter of complications theory which means the reaction is followed by conner action so if there is a sincere no steps that can really move forward by engaging each other very viable the promises to deescalate this type of the arms race china china's arms are really open for engagement just briefly to see much chance of any solution to this problem russia has invited international to moscow to look at this this weapon is cool so much consternation but america's just refused to come. well well the. the the trial has given the world

a lot of surprises by you know isolating itself from the world engagement so china is really prepared on both sides so china has its almight and its own well the truth on its own national interest and national security but. the china would really keep their fingers crossed. the ocean could really happen but in the mean time time is when it to. engage in dialogue. interesting thank you very much feet on the south and i'm going to have to leave it at i was making the director of the center for international business ethics based in beijing thank you america has long been threatening to throw from the i.n.f. treaty alleging as we've heard that russia is in violation of it moscow denies they say and as i said did invite the u.s. to come and see for itself with more his usual she done. the trumpet ministration is said to go down in history as the deal killer its approaches as time tested as

it is straightforward and you start with the big and blunt accuse ation for years russia has violated the terms of the intermediate range nuclear forces really without remorse any intelligence clear and coherent facts of the presumed violation no need to bother with those for all you know they can be totally utterly nonexistent because if you repeat an allegation off times there's a good chance it will become a given russia has violated russia's violation russia shamelessly violates it the russians are a violation of the agreement the russians have been violated they have documented is being violated by the russians let the charge sink in for a while and it's time to switch to threats here comes the pinnacle of the scheme and ultimatum if russia does not return to fall in verifiable compliance with the

treaty within the six month period by verifiably destroying its violating missiles there launchers associated equipment the treaty will terminate other side of the story easy just stay deaf to any counter-argument and build on the empty accusations white house officials have named to the weapon they believe violates the treaty russia in turn invited to the u.s. to come and examine it personally but since the u.s. ignores russia's attempts at corp those offers are apparently worthless for washington's allies as well and the response russia has long violated the treaty of today is no longer contributes to global and regional security totally agree with the u.s. decision u.k. and allies are clear that russia alone is responsible for the demise of the i.n.f. treaty yeah apparently more schools eagerness to. void open access to something

as sensitive as a key new russian made cruise missile is not very fire ball enough for nato we have to be or it's an alarming development and we see that we are stepping back. behind. the cold war era at the end of europe on the other hand to seize the iron of deal as one of the few documents preventing it from being blown get it right into the middle of a new arms race between the us and russia yet while the e.u. has been very consistent pleading for the treaty to stay now it is torn between obligations to its transatlantic big brother and well instinct of self-preservation so we must prepare for a world without the un if. i want to we definitely don't want to see our continent million back to being a battlefield or a place where. other superpowers confront themselves there is

a need for dialogue with russia for all part of the german foreign minister and i will do everything to pave the way for talks within the six month period apart from that made to will ferrell is sas what the u.s. withdrawal would mean it is important to keep the window for dialogue open and in fact washington doesn't mind admitting whose interests it's putting first make no mistake about president transmissions at present transmissions that is to make sure that any agreement that we entered into has america's best interest we will move forward with developing our own military response options and will work with nato and other allies and partners to deny russia any military advantage from its unlawful conduct but trump doesn't want to see the concept of the end of a deal destroyed completely he says he wants a better one i hope that we're able to. get everybody had a very big and beautiful room through

a new treaty that would be much better yet he's maimed to so many deals the u.s. has warned to stay committed to one might wonder why anyone would be unaware enough to trust the states again while we now have six months time to step up international pressure on the trump regime to change course because what we have seen not only with the i.n.f. treaty but also with other treaty obligations is that this u.s. government is unwilling to fulfill its obligations and the international community can no longer just stand by and watch. venezuela is also currently feeling america's heat washington says the president nicolas maduro shouldn't test its patients and should make way for the u.s. backed opposition leader. this is no time for dialogue this is time for.

the girls. to test the resolve of the united states. but with pressure mounts even as why the claimed interim leader. people to choose the right side of history government protests are planned later today. of attempting to stage a coup with washington's hope his supporters are also expected to take to the streets like to see day when his party boy with an alternative take on the situation in venezuela and her latest episode off in case you missed it in case you missed it venezuela is going through a spot of political tabular but do not worry because because the marches in the west are going to sort it out yeah i know. it's all a bit of. venezuela there are food shortages places out of control the president is out of control and the country doesn't want to miss title in over

a decade and now there is a potential civil war on the horizon it's pretty nightmarish leader nicolas maduro has been don't think he's on t.v. and posing with me take it from me saying. not a good sign after a position leader. himself acting president and demanded new elections earlier this month madeira called it a coup but in other well kristie there is only one account and that america is that. of venezuela's domestic politics i don't know what i did was actually going on over there but this is one of those select few countries which gets almost no attention day to day and why don't weld until suddenly for a news cycle everyone has an unpaid. leave the u.s. . it's european buddies are among the disco formed an opinion and they're now in the mood for a spring poll of political interference not the bad kind like sending gnostic

tweets and making new t. facebook groups the good guys and their threatening military action imposing sanctions fermenting civil war cry to some reason that good western samaritans cared deeply about the venezuelan in a way which they don't care about the yemenis and then by we're going to let's cut them slack that south american crews are like presidential libraries every self respecting us we need to have at least one bad name but the likes of britain and france taking a break from failing to sort out their own political turmoil to tell them is way left to sort it out within eight days fascism to the material girl some powerful friends russia and china to name but a few but if anyone thinks they're being caught in the middle of this law is going to be good for the lives of ordinary venezuelans history's got a different message for you guys oh and my dear i may come to wish that they'd so it is this one out amongst themselves.

pretty boy could bear you watching us international still plenty more to come we're going to take a quick break we're back to. max kaiser one more of my guide to financial survival this. is a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right these are

straws are simply not accountable and we're just getting more and more to the. holy destabilize the global economy you need to protect yourself and get informed as we . welcome back now yellow vest protests are underway across france for a twelfth weekend in a row we have a look at some live pictures now i think from paris this time around demonstrators there they won't just calling for social reforms the rallies are being dedicated to those who were injured by police the previous march is the say that over two thousand people have been hurt since november the seventeenth comes after president macron recently launched a so-called national dialogue in

a bid to find common ground with the protesters and to the surprise of some to he's also expressed his solidarity with the movement. for you love this means being for higher paid work and a more efficient parliament than i. we spoke to the publisher and writer america movil he says that mccrone is out of touch with the french people. he thinks he's like you'll yell of their city's living like your yellow vest maybe with a little bigger salary he doesn't see that he's living in a very very different world and you could see all the broken traces of these people who cannot feed their children and well not to fret risking losing another you know during a demonstration during this demonstration straps because there are some traps speaking about working for a better salary mr mccraw or another financial risk to crash wants to increase. his

salary everyone understands and crouched in france that it's big news more for him and less for the french because i think it's just so on me a bad joke and that mr mccloy is just underlining the yawning gap between him and the french one more than one hundred best a geisha is have been opened against french police over their controversial use of right guns in recent months in rights organizations in the country want a complete ban on the use of the weapon as fire rubber bullets the size of golf balls are the spoke to a witness of the alleged use of excessive force has been in demonstrations they said and they're going to show you that the people in the sense that. yes first of the police and they don't do it and all this is it didn't do it occasion this was started and it's not at all tool that they use it on the s. and this is it in fact you see some towns in the provinces where there was an association of the best and the police there's nothing till the days before the end

of the they slow a lot. of the end of this i think this is a this which is where they were discovered one. form of child abuse known as breast ironing is reportedly on the rise in the u.k. reports suggest that dozens even hundreds of young british girls have been subjected to it the practice aims to delay breast formation in pre-teen girls by painfully massaging skin. with hot wooden sticks and also stones until the tissue ruptures is intended to discourage male attention and prevent rape united nations though describes it as a as one of five under reported crimes globally relating to gender based violence we spoke to two women who experienced this in their childhood they say typically the perpetrators of this kind of abuse of parents where i was you as well was being younger my mom say me to my auntie my bris was just come out he was to see you know she has to be again she needs. me she take the

route put a fair thing to put a i was carrying she slapped me about maybe all's well maybe i was trying to do it so that i should. look at me. just saw you know a bit off you are you know is also. nice but we also spoke to the co-founder of the children's rights group geraldine young who is sure the problem is bigger than is being reported it thousands of girls have been victims all they've been affected. by breast i me and this is because most of them migrated to the u.k. already the problem of breast ironing where doctors do warn the practice is severe health implications breast dining can increase the risk of cancer and also lead to complications with breast feeding later in life the procedure can also lead to

infections and result in physical and psychological damage u.k. government has vowed to criminalize the practice where it has been accused of being slow to respond during in we're again told us about the consequences of breast on. most of them have got sagging breast because you know the skin has been strange because first of all they use those stones and those who are used and and the pieces to suppress the growth of the breast and this is make sure and where once the breast tries to force itself out what happens and this affects your whole life long conditions in the sense that they are emotionally disturbed they even frankly if you call to even open up to people or even on press in front of the afraid even almost in front of the hospital she's coming up to half past three here mostly watching out a good abby company we're back again the headlines more stories at the top of the.

backstabbers financial survival guide. housing. oh you mean there's a downside to artificial mortgage dr carried away that's cause report. but rather. hear from us and. move on what has. i know that i know are rather true but there are rather you know stuff about the force for medicare that. i will use that i let them but i don't question that you can keep an eye on what i

have to lose each other for profit is not good and it. was. in their own mind that lend themselves well the hatefulness a little. relief. because the toll from bush i knew you didn't pay on time and terry has said. that she ought to have a civil. law for them after the whole fucked around with respect to for jim and lawyer for hope that are fairly mature for. the money. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confront cation let it be an arms race based on often spearing dramatic developments only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very

critical time time to sit down and talk. at last. come. back to deny this is the comedy show where americans in america covering american news are called foreign agents so let's take a second to go over the big three the big three things that seem to really cause the united states to want to own. overthrow or bring down a foreign government if you have one of these three things the us might screw with you if you have two of these things for us yeah finitely screw with you if you have three of these things then look behind you right now because the us is currently growing. number one the being

a socialist country that's right if you don't have the same economic system as us hope and we will cut your mother. number to dropping the us dollar iraq drop the dollar a run drop the dollar libya drop the dollar pakistan drop the dollar in trade with china and the following day we added them to the list of countries violating religious freedom. not kidding we do not take kindly to dropping the dollar but that doesn't apply to them as well sanest well i have never heard. that as well has two out of the big three but the number three reason we try to bring down other countries is because they have oil or other resources in venezuela does. the world's a leader in oil reserves. it's only the world of.

jupiter's moon europa has more. in case anyone was wondering and that is why the us is trying to create a coup in venezuela right now. this. was government and our government is doing it with the support of every mainstream media channel you know merica from m.m.m. it's n.b.c. to fox news to n.p.r. bill maher all right every single one let's break down a recent c.n.n. propaganda segment take a look for us into venezuela's amending design stuff the world's worst grow. if you g. crisis is it. you think maybe syria or yemen might be more dire straits you know the other awful humanitarian crises we've helped create and foster our government treats humanitarian crises like baby birds were like ok come on come on
