it's hole full. time in syria this is. my last for the whole fuck around mr hate that for jim and then for hope that are fairly in your court. in the tit for tat response russia says it's suspending participation in a key nuclear treaty have to the u.s. made the same announcement on friday. you'll have us protesters clashed with police in paris is demonstrators that gather

for a twelve week end in a row. so as the venezuela crisis escalates thousands take to the streets of the capital to back so proclaim president one guy does pro-government demonstrators reply with their own mass rally. great to have you with us this hour this is r.t. international. in is announced that moscow is suspending its participation in a king u.k. treaty the president called it a mere response after the same thing from washington on friday. 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 their doors open for dialogue but also not

to initiate any talks on the issue. well today washington officially suspends its participation in the i.n.f. treaty and it's just one episode throughout many years of dead end talks with the united states about disarmament and now russia has decided the time for empty talks has come to a close russian president vladimir putin has said that the u.s. is refusal to heed previous russian calls for disarmament is leading to an in danger moment of international security and so a mere response would mean not just the holding off of participation on russia's and in diana but also taking up of research with regard to staying on par with the united states however he also said that this does not mean russia's going to embroil itself in a costly on the arms race with the west now russian foreign minister sergei lavrov also said that the u.s.

has been violating this treaty since one thousand nine hundred ninety nine specifically with its use of unmanned military drones and he also took a couple jabs at the united states m.k. forty one vertical missile launch system used by the u.s. navy now this has been in service since one thousand nine hundred eighty six and it has a ninety nine percent success rate with twenty four team the u.s. is deployed in europe is a full two one missile launches which is suitable for american tomahawk missiles which is a direct violation of the treaty these missile launches are based in rumania and already to be constructed in poland russia's defense ministry released a statement talking about washington's long time violations of the treaty two years ago before the public unsubstantiated accusations against russia and suppose that violation of the on the treaty washington has already not only made the decision but to do then started preparing to manufacture medium and shorter range missiles

banned by the treaty and the statement read specifically up. about a u.s. military industrial corporation called raytheon located in tucson arizona it says programs were launched back in june twenty seventh teen for the expansion and production of missiles banned by the i.n.f. treaty and that's led a lot of people in the russian government to suggest more than just political mirror reactions to what the united states is doing russia's defense minister said that some changes need to be made to the russian three m. fifty four caliber cruise missiles right now they can only be launched from the sea but some plans are in the works to change that. we said just doesn't work on adopting russia's caliber missile launch systems from maritime to land based ones we also suggest beginning to work on a new land base hypervelocity ballistic missile of short to medium range now of course these are only suspensions of participation in the i.n.f.

treaty but with diplomatic solutions looking less and less likely it's very likely that we'll be seeing serious developments in this story in the coming days. so the first time russia has spoken of the need to boost its military capabilities amid difficult relations with the us so they may appear to not stay number of key improvements to the country's awesome. russia says it was forced to come up with a weapon capable of bypassing missile defenses in order to restore nuclear parity the can job exergy one can launch hypersonic missiles that can travel that more than ten times the speed of sound thanks to that and unpredictable trajectory they are unstoppable the oven god hypersonic vehicle can fly it up to twenty times the speed of sound an i.c.b.m. will take it to an altitude of several dozen kilometers from where we can dive head first back to earth a top speed with a crop like maneuverability dodging any missile defenses. in contrast when other

existing ballistic missiles were. into the atmosphere they fly at a pre-set trajectory making the midi targets for a.b.m. system sama might seem like an ordinary i.c.b.m. but its range is much longer the legendary topple and missiles can take the shortest route maybe end systems some and can travel via the north or the south pole where there's no missile shield and it will still hit its target but most importantly summit is a heavy missile capable of carrying more than twenty warheads that's five times more than the previous generation missiles a bit of a sneak nuclear powered cruise missile is a unique weapon it's basically the same as an american tomahawk whereas the whole claim is limited to two and a half thousand kilometers because of fuel constraints russia's new missile can fly indefinitely it can take any power to avoid missile defenses. just like the side and on the water drugs similar to the regular drones are used to

except these a submarine launched and pavel at incredible speed said targets under the sea they run so deep that no equipment can track them even if detected that high speed prevents them from being intercepted the new weapons commute work together to neutralize any existing missile defense systems in joke and destroy ground based a.b.m. systems because sidon drones take care of those at sea then the sum of haven't gotten cruise missiles can be norms towards that target bypassing any remaining barriers on top of that there's also a combat laser complex pettus of it which is unique because it almost instantly delivers an energy to a target and has an unlimited battle reserve of developing new weapons is not a belligerent move rather a move to restore parity perhaps this time the call for a balance of folds and fair treatment all round will be heard when you actually mean you should we can dream up that there would be simply severe shrill thing in nashik maybe she just came over here to the museum she wouldn't go look when you're

webster fletcher if you genius he could speak you know for both of you only see would you that's that shit. america's been threatening for some time to withdraw from the i.n.f. treaty alleging as we've heard that russia is in violation of moscow denies this and invited the us to come and see for itself and it is don of looks at how the u.s. has been ramping up the pressure. the trumpet ministration is said to go down in history as the deal killer its approaches as time tested as it is straightforward 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 enough 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 as the response russia has long violated the treaty of

trudy and 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 the key new russian made cruise missile is not very fire ball enough for nato we have to be. 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 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 our part the german foreign minister and i will do everything to pave the way for talks within the six month period apart from that nato 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 that 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 the deal destroyed completely he says he wants a better one i hope that we're able to. get everybody at a very big and beautiful room and do a new treaty that would be much better yet he's maimed to so many deals the u.s. has sworn to stay committed to one might wonder why anyone would be unaware enough to trust the states again all we know is 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. police have fired tear

gas and water cannon of protesters in paris during clashes on a twelve weekend of yellow vests protests. was. to. you. more than twenty demonstrators have reportedly been detained by police officers have been injured across the country this time around participants on just calling for social reform those rallies dedicated to those injured by police the previous march is to say more than three thousand people have been injured since november seventeenth our sister channel r.t. france spoke to some protesters. would you like to do during your two on november

twenty fourth hurricane with friends to paris to peacefully participate in a demonstration express my concerns with the usual slogans michael resign at sixteen thirty one of the riot police called rooms and tank the moving crowd and the full time grenade hit my legs and exploded on one side. the injured twenty five to thirty people injured and maimed and mostly. those who were wounded the thaw the socket from the same weapons that are suffering so united artists once it was obvious no difference. this is important because they became part of a new family the family of the wounded i'm not the only one wounded like this i became part of a larger group who were injured there are many seventeen hundred people i'm the twentieth a person whose i was injured still it was important to come today in order to at least support the speaker. we will press the marker and surprise many with his

claim that he is also a yellow vest under certain conditions. if where you live this means being for higher paid work and a more efficient parliament than i am a year of this. you are political analysts nicol american fish told us president matter and they stay appear to be out of touch with the people of france. i think this is extremely important because sometimes people don't realize how tough the police are in france how they how violent they have been this past twelve weeks i have seen personally an innocent man being shot in the face just fifty centimeters away from me for doing nothing nothing at all i think macro for the people in his entourage just don't understand what's going on there so much distin netted with what the french are leaving on a daily basis that they have they don't know what type of answer to bring macro cannot come back he is over as the french president he can only give back his image he is hated by more than half the population today and i think you dislike of

people disapprove of some of his actions i'm talking about hatred. president nicolas maduro has made a surprise announcement today calling for new elections in venezuela details after the break. you know world big partisan movie lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the back and 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.

make this manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. in the final merry go round listen to the one percent. we can all middle of the room sick. welcome back the standoff in venezuela continues to escalate in a speech at a mass pro-government rally and the competent president maduro announced plans for fresh elections to the national assembly the legislature controlled by the

opposition meanwhile opposition leader won by dos trying to gather public support for opening humanitarian aid sent us some nothing to do you on the agenda the constituent assembly has a coup situation or historical and political evaluation to call for early polling elections. very gritty with this. poem the religious mothers buy the country a move towards free elections may the people decide on a new national assembly do you agree or agree and i stand by that this is. columbia that's where the first center of humanitarian aid gathering will be and there will be two more we will announce their whereabouts in the following days but i ain't is a page that one will be in brazil and the other will be on an island in the caribbean. and there are also reiterated calls for dialogue with the opposition the u.s. backed refusing talks and is counter rally on saturday quite over again called on military forces to join the opposition thousands of bio supporters hit the streets

local journalists of course reports from the capital where the biggest rallies we're seeing. people are gathered here to protest against an equal last majeure and to demand free elections the sky was made by one white oh in other parts of the city there's also protests to support me call last maduro as president and also to celebrate the twenty years of their revolutionary socialism but yesterday there were so strong words from the u.s. threatening new class maturer and wishing him an early retirement let's see what bolton had to say about this situation i wish him a long quiet retirement on a pretty beach far from venezuela and the sooner he takes advantage of that the center is likely to have a nice quiet retirement on a pretty beach rather than being in some other beach area like i want out of now also my parents had something to say about nikko last month during also saying that it would be good for madura not to test the us resolve to solve the venezuelan

situation let's see what mike pence had to say there's no time for dialogue this is time for. all options are on the table i. nicolas maduro would do well not to test the resolve of the united states. do you feel that already tense political climate in the country a military of high rank today a general also back and one way to go as president and said that nicolas maduro had to leave as reportedly from the national and local press meanwhile dinosaur bones are divided among those who support nicolas maduro and those who support wire wedo . it's not just the opposition leader who's calling for venezuela's military to join him and us national security advisor john bolton also insisted the armed forces need to stand as he put it quote on the side of the venezuelan people i'm back why don't the secretary of state. declared support for the reconstruction of.

the response the country's president nicolas maduro as denounce them including the u.s. vice president as war. the elusive awfully to you mr donald trump they lied to you totally lie john bolton mike pence among the three weeks obsessed with. the e.u. actions are should be condemned by everyone in europe wedo does not have the support of the people of europe but rather that governments in europe these governments are acting as proxies for united states power in latin america let's not forget the united states did exactly the same thing when it failed to use peaceful means to overthrow a targeted government that would be the libyan government in two thousand and eleven or the iraqi government in two thousand and three the united states is in

a bar right now and it's clearly right now for military action against venezuela the u.s. effort to demonize the venezuelan government to declare it to be a dictatorship is nothing other than a propaganda pretext for regime change. has put a boy because look at the situation in venezuela in the latest episode of in case you missed it. in case you missed it venezuela is going through a sponsor of political tabulates but do not worry because the good samaritans in the west are going to sort it out yeah i know. it's all a bit of a job or in venezuela there are food shortages play shows out of control the president's massage is out of control and the country doesn't want to miss wall title in over a decade and now there is a potential civil war must arise and it's pretty nightmarish leader nicolas maduro has been don't think he's celso on t.v. and posing with the army take it from me down saying. not a good sign after

a position leader guy joe declared himself acting president and demanded new elections earlier this month madeira called it a coup but in other more chrissy there is only one vote that counts and god has it america's that's where i swear my eyes analysis of venezuela's domestic politics and i certainly want to do what's actually going on over there but this is one of those select few countries which gets almost no attention day to day in the wider world until suddenly for a brief news cycle everyone has an opinion on the u.s. and its european buddies are among voters are formed an opinion and they're now in the mood for a spring poll of political interference not the bad kind like sending tweets and making new t. facebook groups the good guys for any military action imposing sanctions fermenting simple. reasons and good western samaritans cared deeply about the venezuelan in a way in which they don't care about the yemenis now even going by we are going to

let us cut them slack that a south american producer like presidential libraries every self respecting us we used to have at least one 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 less to go take to. out within eight days passes and who's going to hear it's got some powerful friends russia and china psyche to name but a few but if anyone thinks that being caught in the middle of this law is going to be good for the lives of ordinary venezuelans history's got a different s. and p's guys you know and military may sometimes wish that they'd so it has this one out amongst themselves. which are not international things thing with this do stick around my colleagues on whole consider you right up to date at the top of them.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. and. i think he has a big achiles. election. if they have the election people are suffering from many things they're. sick you think. take that. to make it to bed to become secure stable

country so i think he has a big thing the people they've got ninety per cent of the people they'd be happy if the perception is that when that action. i've been saying the numbers mean something the matter you have to deal with one trillion dollars in debt more than ten dollars more in tamping each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you want to be rich the point six percent market shocks thirty percent of your home with four hundred to five hundred three per circuit for sure and bitcoin rose to twenty thousand dollars. china is building a two point one billion dollar a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelms. the only numbers you need to remember one doesn't show you for two minutes one can only.

get. time after time she we're going underground as the trumpet ministration and washington suspends controls on nuclear weapons that could kill seven and a half billion people every human on earth coming up in the show as the masses again today rise up against their leaders risking their lives against french security forces we'll ask a mathematical physicist about the chances of another french revolution and with six people dying every day last year while attempting to flee an arguably major destroyed libya we'll ask the world health organization about the immigration detention centers in britain to the un the refused entry to well as a refugee in

a commonwealth guantanamo style prison camp wins australia's top literary prize in the past twenty four hours as we speak to the former british soldier who blew the whistle on possible crimes against humanity all this more coming up in today's going underground a first on wednesday's show we talked to jeremy corbyn ally and form a shadow you came urgencies minister chris williamson about the bank of england's withholding of gold deposits made by the government of venezuela the bank run by former goldman sachs executive mark coney has since got back to us about the alleged stolen one point two billion dollars of gold they said the bank of england provides banking services including gold custody services to a large number of customers the bank does not comment on any of those relationships which are subject to customer confidentiality in all its operations the bank observes the highest standards of risk management and abides by all relevant legislation including a political financial sanctions war in venezuela in

a minute but even by the standards of u.k. media how could this week's chaotic breaks of parliamentary proceedings be described as a triumph for a minority government leader to raise a may as mainstream media prata long about an irish backstop pm q. fell on the anniversary of the bloody sunday mass ago when british troops opened fire on civilians but the leader of the formerly paramilitary linked party keeping main power for a billion pounds appeared to prefer to actually talk of war in recent days we have heard the irish prime minister talk of quite bringing his troops up to the border in the event of a no david we've heard the irish deputy foreign minister talk of people jumping out of windows isn't this highly raccoon talk extremely dangerous in the present circumstances that as a group claiming to be the ira warned that future bombs in britain would come with no warning to resume said she would be talking to the irish t. shock but ahead of being told no nine known by twenty seven nations of the e.u.

she did arguably hit the nail on the head with u.k. labor leader german corben just corben about so-called e.u. state aid rules they could prevent a radical corben government from bringing britain's health care banking water energy telecommunications and transport systems under democratic control it talks about a strong single market relationship with the european union in the future i want to know whether that means he wants to accept all e.u. states rules for example because in the past he subject it to state rules well of course this is a prime minister's questions so corgan replied as he might as leader of her majesty's opposition last time i looked at the order paper it said prime minister's question time is right of course it is a time for questions for the pm not him at least for now but the fact corbin gets away with not answering questions of detail about labor plans to reverse decades of facts right near liberalism is arguably down to a failure of mainstream journalism all the more ironic then that there is a may have just celebrated journalism celebrate.
