germany and france to reach a compromise on a joint russian german pipeline project opposed by washington that despite the us ramping up the pressure. of chinese telecom giant up our way lashes out at the west calling espionage accusations against them selfless for the united states first in firing line for not being e.u. governments to ban the firm also ahead. blue march in great numbers from washington but not everyone going to the white house to deliver more than ten million signatures asking prospective companies are now. stepping up the pressure on the united states rolls out the possibility of talks with venezuela's embattled socialist government and rebels the visas of some of president maduro as a threshold. and the international paralympic committee says it will conditionally reinstate russia twenty nine months after the country was banned over allegations of state sponsored opening.

it's six o'clock here in moscow and you're watching out international line from our studio with me. welcome to the program we start in europe this hour away germany and france have reached a compromise on the joint russian german gas pipeline project nord stream to commenting on this german chancellor angela merkel did franco german cooperation stating it was a good day after previous reports that paris it was seeking to derail it well has got more details now from our reporter and ski in paris charlotte does this mean the project is back on course to meet its latest twenty nine hundred deadline. it does look like it's back on course but there are suggestions it could be slightly delayed as a result of this new e.u. directive but the directive is now

a compromise between prongs between germany which means the project will be still going ahead though it looked like it was set to be derailed off to france announced on thursday that it was actually can just support an e.u. directive that could have complete. this entire pipeline this is a pipeline that would bring gas directly from russia roy the way you through germany even had gone to the point that suggested that there was a diplomatic tensions between the two countries over this project what had caused president might go on to pull out of the munich security conference where he was due to be holding a joint press conference with anglo merkel france had raised concerns about the project saying that it would mean that europe would be thought to dependent on russia when it comes to energy and it could also have a conflict of interest for other countries particularly in eastern europe to countries such as poland and slovakia angle of merkel said this in response. it

wouldn't. come being an odd thing if you would become dependent on russia because of this second gas pipeline i'd say no not if we diversify the same time germany will expand its guest term for liquefies gas this means that under no circumstances do we want to become dependent solely on russia that russia was already a source of gas in the cold war and will remain one with i'll toss fallen into one sided japan and say. well this isn't the first time that this multi-billion euro project has come under attack but particularly over the past year or so it's come under attack from the united states with the united states saying at one point that german companies who continued with the construction of this pipeline could actually face sanctions as a result of doing that and last year when president trump was at a nato conference he made this declaration. so we're protecting germany we're protecting french we're perfect for these crises and numerous of the countries go

out and make a pipeline deal with russia where they're paying billions of dollars into the coffers of russia germany is totally controlled by russia because they were getting from sixty to seventy percent of their energy from russia and a new pipeline. well the united states concern there about the monetary influence of germany paying russia for this energy when in fact the usa would like to be selling its own liquefied gas to europe and being one of the major suppliers of energy to europe in the future not so with this project going ahead there's been even more pressure coming from the u.s. senate on thursday both democrats and republicans came together to put forward a new resolution is going to be discussed over the next few weeks which calls again for the cancellation of this pipeline. checked not only that but u.s.

ambassadors to germany to denmark and to the e.u. are said to have been pushing pressure on nations to actually oppose this project but so far that hasn't worked as we know there's been a compromise and north stream to project will be going ahead it seems like the pressure from the u.s. has resulted in one thing only and that's go. the reporting from paris. chinese telecoms giant huawei has hit back at its critics in the west flatly dismissing claims it's used for beijing's spying purposes. recently who always been under constant attack by some countries and politicians were shocked or sometimes feel amused by those ungrounded and senseless allegations chinese telecom from slam the united states after receiving another blow in the five g. race the feel shocked an amused of how the united states is lobbying the european

governments against the firm the united states envoy to the european union has threatened its western allies that if the huge chinese equipment in their infrastructure projects they will face consequences and they will be in a disadvantage side i'm dealing when dealing with the united states the chinese firm has been receiving a lot of pressure from western regulators and lawmakers its involvement in the next generation network with officials blindly accusing the company of spying someone from the pool of borrowing bajan picks up the phone and says i want to listen in on the following conversation i want to run a certain car over there ought that's on the five g. network and kill the person who's in it. there is nothing that company legally can do today in china to prevent the chinese government from making that request successfully but just last month the united states government filed criminal charges against

a quark we accusing them of stealing trade secrets from timor bille scored in the u.s. on sanctions on iran but again no proof the u.s. response was simply it's actually one party one state and it seems that the u.s. cannot choose in a better time to actually do this european countries are actually looking and weighing in of new introductions of sanctions against companies and countries when it's coming to cyber espionage and gathering intellectual property theft but as all this is happening there's a government officials in germany which are saying that the merkel's government right now is ruling out the ban of germany using chinese equipment supplies for building its five g. network as germany is currently walking into the net and into building actually its five g. network europe is actually second largest market clock we has invested billions and billions and into digital sector they've been working closely with major telecom

companies are on the continent such as the way to telecom orange and bt and many others and as the u.s. is now trying to impose a blanket ban on chinese firms when it comes to the five g. market europe is actually on the horns of a dilemma. venezuelan president nicolas maduro is continuing to resist america's calls to resign and has no wants to petition demanding washington stop meddling in his country's affairs. find a you know no man attack will march in great numbers to washington we will even go to the white house to deliver more than ten million signatures asking for a spectacle in israel and demanding peace i just signed it it says hands off. should be respected. nonetheless the united states is continuing to dilute the pressure on venice when this crisis stricken government washington. officials

working for president went to his administration america's special envoy from venezuela has also repeated calls for the international community to deal with the leader of the opposition instead instead of trying to accommodate the group through come to groups for dialogue we urge countries to recognize one going to always interim president and join us the time for dialogue with the group has long. don't fall into a trap the guru has said many times before where there's a fully dialogue rather than a strong message to him it's time to go now why joe is claiming that he has met with european officials and as we know the united states is very much on his side of the united states has said that all options are on the table regarding their support for and they push for ousting we've also seen countries like russia and china have it in fact and said that he should stay as the president and so on top

of that now the united states is claiming that they are not able to get humanitarian aid into venice and venezuela has also made the claim that they found some cargo that included weapons and ammunition that were made in the usa so there's a lot of different statements going on here but at the end of the day we really have to ask the question about what the people in caracas are actually believe and are actually seeing. the u.s. special envoy for venezuela also suggested that president or are go into exile to allow for a smaller the transition to democracy political analyst and king told us washington's actions a lantern a brazen kill attendant. what we're seeing from abrams is just shameless deplorable on behalf of us interventionism you with imperialism that i mean there's really no debate here it's immoral it's illegal in

the u.s. government in the trumpet ministration is using including humanitarianism humanitarian intervention ready democracy. but you don't have to be a left socialist to understand what you know what us in prior is doing here we saw how we they spread democracy forty five years ago to chile to iraq to afghanistan to panama to grenada the list goes on the venezuelan people have the right to determine their own path be they have the right to make their own mistakes during his highly anticipated state of the union address donald trump outlined some of the threats he believes america's facing among them were illegal immigration terrorism and socialism and with income inequality continuing to grow in the us left ideas do seem to be on the rebound callup will probably takes a look. now those who watch donald trump state of the union address would have a hard time missing one particular moment the topic of socialism america will never

be a socialist country. not mild words at all and it's not the first time the trump has raised the specter of socialism all nations of the world should resist socialism. and the misery that it brings to everyone. but the socialists they say that he's just afraid of their rising popularity i thought it was fabulous because it shows that we've gotten under his skin he has no vision for this country everything is about what he doesn't want everything is about the boogie man and they've got a point after all bernie sanders is one of the most popular politicians in the country but. it's not only republicans that are fearing the rise of socialism you've also got the establishment in the blue corner concerned as now at this point

a majority of democrats say that socialism is the way forward for america where we can say one of the things this is to ensure is that democratic socialism is the say in the for her to be ready now. and that is going to be perhaps but. i do accept any position that the party presented by the republicans trump media going as far as printing guidelines on how to inoculate your children against the rising ideological danger. so we decided to go out to the district here in new york that elected alexandria cacio cortez the rising star of democratic socialism and we decided to see how

people here feel about the ideology that went pretty far in defining the twentieth century and why do you think people here voted for her i think they voted for her because she was pretty she would have her because he's charismatic and i think they also voted for because of the change from the guy that was in it before who's very much like embedded a lot of people are afraid of sharks i mean anything to rear away from what trump is doing i think to fill people feel more confident about what's going on you know trump recently said the usa will never be a socialist country do you agree with him. i guess so yeah i think he's right. i don't see that happening in states being great now we know anything that comes out of his mouth is the complete opposite he's from brazil world so if he says america will never be so it was going through i feel very good nor going to miracle will become a socialist country for you afraid of socialism. will do to some extent year i don't think that would be appropriate for this country i don't know too much bought

it so i don't know if i could be afraid of it though no we also got a chance to speak with journalist dan was there dan can you tell me is socialism no longer a dirty word in american politics well it's a dirty word still in certain quarters but it's more acceptable now in other quarters in a was a few years ago now is to bernie sanders and. alexandria ocasio cortez now do you think it is possible that bernie sanders might run against trump there saying he's the most likely to be trump is it possible that we could get a trump versus sanders ticket in the upcoming election i think it's very possible but i don't want part of the predictions but i think it's very possible yes and is that something the democratic party leadership is afraid of the thing they're out there terrified of that i think that if that happens every democratic politician in the country would running for cover. as a member of sanders is not a democrat just as trump is not really a republican so we'll have to have a non-democratic versus not republican and everyone in between just just hiding

their head in the sand and try to forget your what's going on for a long time it seemed like the s. word was almost profanity and we see the establishment trying to stoke up the same old fears once again however it seems like in twenty nineteen socialism is back on the table for debate came up and r.t. new york. the u.s. democratic party is under fire over his handling of a slew of misconduct claims against top officials in the state of virginia but some on the stories off to this break. seem wrong. just don't. get to shape out. and in. the trail.

when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. most people think just stand out in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the person with the loudest voice of the biggest race. to stand losing you since you just leave the right questions and get the right answers.

welcome back to the part about the international paralympic committee has announced it will reinstate russia's membership more than two years off the country was banned for widespread doping it says though that the lifting comes with conditions . only conditionally lifting the r.b.c. says substantial. by no later than fifteen march the i.p.c.c. will publish. criteria identifying the core how a level requirements are p.c. must continue to meet two month conditional statement of membership of the a.p.c. . discussed the recent announcement by the international paralympic committee and the level of. well i suspect that there's more there yet to say terms of what conditions must be maintained and fulfilled for the full time reinstatement the current reinstatement is conditional they promise to publish it by march fifteenth

as we've just heard the most important thing voiced in germany today by the i.p.c. was that in twenty twenty in tokyo and in twenty twenty two in beijing during the next two lympics the russian paralympians will be able to go out and represent the country and a russian flag and twenty sixteen they missed it completely in rio in twenty. they went athletes representing rush hour or a are essentially not under the country's flag right now it looks like they have a chance to finally compete under the country's flag which is the most important of so many athletes who you know suffer the consequences of the doping scandal and it is of course a recognition of the work that's been done even though there are those conditions there's a recognition that progress has been made in those two years along two years take us back to how all this began it began obviously with the so-called mclaren report published by the world anti-doping agency twenty fifteen the allegations of state sponsored doping system in russia obviously a lot of federations were banned the russian paralympic committee was among those

federations i do remember distinctly that press conference where the previous head of the i.p.c. philip craven was rolled into a wheelchair on the podium and said that the entire russian paralympic team will not be going to the rio games in twenty sixteen a lot of back then because in the in the case of the paralympic team. there was no proof of systematic doping system there i mean these people have suffered enough already and there was a lot of outcry about not letting them go to those games in any case now we have this conditional restatement which is the first major reinstatement of the russian sports body after the russian anti-doping agency was reinstated early last year twenty nine months is a long time for any athlete to be out of international competition paralympians of already missed two big lympics although that we could face going to tokyo next summer what toll has this taken on them well we remember interviewing several of

those paralympians when the whole scandal happened they were obviously in tears nothing can rectify the fact that they missed out on the twenty sixteen games in entirely and we're talking about champions like. a swimmer or. wrestler they've won so many medals and yet they missed out on the chance to go to rio nevertheless and twenty two when they went to be on chang as athletes representing russia not russia per say they want twenty eight medals which was the second highest result in the entire games now all that is gone they will be able to compete under the russian flag but most importantly today's move represents a major step for clean sport as many have already noted and the russian paralympic committee has done a lot over these years sixty nine conditions they fulfilled as far as i know that's a lot to to have that conditional reinstatement now if you go to the website of the russian paralympic committee you can see a tab which says report doping that's something that hadn't existed before the

scandal so let's just hope that moving forward everything will be clean the athletes will be able to represent their country finally and we can only be happy for them. the us democratic party has been plunged into crisis after top three officials in the state of virginia where accused of racism and sexual misconduct and adding to the controversy the party's leadership. facing claims of hypocrisy that will cool to explain. it wasn't so long ago that virginia was a republican party stronghold but these days the democrats are running the show. that's going to be good for democrats but now all three of the men on stage are sinking in scandals in the middle is democratic governor ralph northam out of the blue a picture from his nine hundred eighty four med school yearbook surfaced featuring people in black face and k.k.k. robes first he apologized and confirmed that that was him in the photo and then he

said well now he wasn't it is definitely not me i did participate in a dance. in san antonio in which i darken my face as part of a michael jackson fellow democrats were baying for nor thems resignation and to right the wrong here's the alternative for the job just in fairfax who could become virginia's second black governor in its history except now he's being accused of sexual assault what began as consensual kissing quickly turned into a sexual assault mr fairfax put his hand behind my neck and forcefully pushed my head towards his crotch fairfax's and as willing to apologize as northern is though he says the accusation is a cry for attention is all the political. debate if you like she was completely guilty until proven innocent right well not always how we deal with survivors who

come forward right now is unacceptable we should listen to women. i think we should be focusing on what's right now happening with the governor and this is an epidemic type of behavior is unacceptable to. us and there's you believe that. no. fairfax's accuse. their first went to the washington post in twenty seventeen but the paper didn't run with it due to lack of evidence which didn't stop the post from going headline happy a year later when brett kavanaugh his accuser came forward all the packer see aside though if fairfax resigns there's always democratic attorney general mark herring to take his place surely he's never done anything offensive in one thousand eight when i was a nineteen year old time to graduated from college some friends suggested we had time to party dressed like rappers we dressed up and put in weeks on brown makeup but of course the democratic leadership takes a firm stance against such and moral behavior we must hold everyone from the

highest offices to our own families killing a bill for racist words and beat high standards but if those three are ruled out the next guy in line for the top job in virginia is a republican the democrats like to be the party with a moral high ground when people take notice but when it's their people on the chopping block well that appears to be a different story the moral clarity is not really clear but at the same time it is is not clear as far as it being consistent but it's clear that it going to be inconsistent is clearly going to pretty much say if you're a republican in the conservative or anything like they were going to choose you much worse and which we are so desperate in which we do there are clearly hypocritical they're not clearly fair and i think there's very unfair people who they happen to have different points of view than they do the governor of north them he's on record talk or no ball people being racism being anti racist but you

use doing the exact same thing that he would condemn him so so but his own standards by their own sort they're going to be over with in a it's their fault nobody else's because they set the standards by which they're now being judged. without a scandal snowballing the republicans have a client escaped unscathed i'm the. the republican senate majority leader in virginia tommy moment has been accused of racism too he was the managing editor of the the genea military institute's nine hundred sixty eighty a book it included racial slurs about a student from thailand and contains an image of a man wearing blackface moment has denied however that he was responsible saying he was one of seven people who worked on the on the book. was your news this hour be back around thirty minutes with more but first his crosstalk.

i've been saying the numbers mean something they matter the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crimes happen each day. eighty five percent of global wealth you long for the ultra rich eight point six percent market saw a thirty percent rise last year some with four hundred to five hundred trade per second per second 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 overwhelm. the only numbers you need remember in one one business shows you can afford to miss the one and only. this is a stick from a water bottle found in the stomach of a fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers they're the bad ones

they're the litter bugs are throwing us away and history should be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. that's. their plastic. essential projects funding me. on i knew that dizzy and very funny but fun now the mountains of waste only grow higher. hello and welcome to cross for all things considered i'm peter lavelle donald

trump's second state of the union address was conspicuously light when it came to foreign policy why is this was his aim to avoid disappointing his base while at the same time wishing not to spar with the deep state but are these mixed signals all about is an elaborate strategy or an indication of indecisive. prost talking us foreign policy i'm joined by my guest brian becker in washington he's the director of the answer coalition is well as host of loud and clear a daily new show on radio also in washington we have john city leaders he is a political strategist and trilogy advisors and in auburn recross alou rockwell he is a political analyst at lou rockwell dot com all right john cross talk rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate brian let me go to you first just kind of throw my introduction again trump wasn't really have be.
