ah ah. ah. ah ah. another round of clashes take place at the venezuela colombia border between

opposition supporters and police no victims are reported. the lemo group of the countries has sent a request to the international criminal court to look at the humanitarian situation in venezuela that comes as the us vice president pledges an additional fifty six million dollars to support the opposition. iran's foreign minister mohammad zarif announces his resignation he made the statement on social media on monday the reason for the resignation remains unclear so far. and as donald trump prepares for his second meeting with north korean leader kim jong un we look at how the host nation vietnam is getting ready for the summit. by broadcasting live direct from our studios moscow this is our team international

on sometimes really glad. that we start with the latest pictures from the simon boulevard bridge on the venezuelan colombian border clashes have erupted there between police and protesters after hundreds arrived to support a humanitarian aid convoy that failed to enter from a sweat. protesters also denounced president nicolas maduro you can see people rocks towards the officers there's also some gray smoke which might have been tear gassed as it has previously been used at the border before. then cohen reports. i'm at the t.n.t. just bridge crossing on the colombian side of the border with venezuela behind me you can see ten trucks carrying six hundred tons of what the u.s. government says is humanitarian aid to be delivered to venezuela and the venezuelan

government is refusing it saying this is actually not humanitarian aid the red cross and other major international humanitarian organizations are refusing to participate in this saying also it is not humanitarian aid. going to morning of the twenty third why don't himself appeared on the colombian side of the t. and deep this bridge crossing urging his supporters to ensure they got across we will very soon this unity bridge will work to bring all of the venezuelan people together the humanitarian aid is definitely on its way to venezuela in a non threatening and peaceful way to save lives at this moment in venezuela now there are about three or four hundred protesters at the entrance to this area about a kilometer away who are pretty rowdy and seem ready to march across the bridge and accompany this humanitarian aide. hundreds of protesters outside the bridge crossing demanded the elected president of venezuela he called us from

a duro be overthrown and the humanitarian aid passed through its border well that's all right my little flip them with my door down with the door nobody likes you and or get up while marching to let the humanitarian aid and the duros not letting him into the country this is the closest point we can get to on the t. and d. to bridge crossing directly behind me or the shipping containers and tanker that are separating venezuela and colombia a colombian police here under orders to not let anyone through until they receive the order from colombian president uganda a k to allow these ten trucks of so-called humanitarian aid to pass through at which point they say protesters hundreds of protesters. may accompany them it has all the ingredients for a potential clash venezuelan authorities and protesters are on the other side if you listen carefully you can hear the music coming from the other side. remain calm the demonstrators rode the aid trucks to other bridge crossings where they clashed

with the venezuelan national guard typical of. the deadly riots that plagued venezuela in twenty seventeen and twenty fourteen and led to hundreds of deaths. a presbyterian minister who works with the colombian government to give spiritual guidance to defecting venezuelan soldiers said the aid isn't about human rights we're promoting democracy instead he says it's meant to start a revolt against the venezuelan government. this is really a pedagogue. in what we really want is for the population to rise up and when the tiny bit of humanitarian aid interest in the way the political death of the president than is well nicolas maduro happens a number of western hemisphere countries are sending an appeal to the international criminal court asking it to consider the humanitarian situation in venezuela known as the lima group it consists of fourteen countries including peru argentina brazil chile colombia and mexico all of them except to mexico have recognized opposition

leader as venezuela's president and has. the lima group is asking for the international criminal court to make an assessment of the situation in venezuela as to whether or not international law was violated with the burning of the aid convoy whether or not venezuelan leaders are in violation of international law they are asking the international criminal court to make that assessment now this comes on the heels of a speech we just heard from mike pence the vice president of united states who addressed the lima group earlier and in his remarks he gave one hundred percent backing on behalf of donald trump and the u.s. government to juan guede oh the individual who calls himself the president of venezuela he calls himself the interim president after taking an oath and self proclaiming himself to be the venezuelan president furthermore mike pence made an appeal to venezuela's military saying it would offer amnesty to forces that switch

sides and began supporting wedo and furthermore my friends offered a kind of a financial incentive for countries throughout the region to join with washington's efforts to topple the venezuelan government this is some of what we heard from mike pence speaking to the lima group today also it's my privilege to announce that the united states will provide an additional fifty six million dollars to support our partners in the region as you come to the aid of the venezuelan people fleeing from the deprivation and oprah should of them to the regime it's good people of venezuela she cure freedom we will go with you you go would go. to you. now the turmoil in venezuela recently asked later around the issue of u.s. aid the united states has attempted to send aid over the border from brazil and the border from colombia there have been clashes at the border the venezuelans are

concerned that aid could contain weapons as elliott abrams currently the u.s. special representative for venezuela has a history of in places like nicaragua using humanitarian aid as a cover to send weapons into the country and at this point venezuela is not interested in taking this aid now opposition activists who oppose material and supporters of have been clashing near the border we understand at this point four people are dead hundreds have been injured and when an aid truck did catch on fire in the aftermath of that we saw a kind of a diplomatic war of words with different parties blaming each other for the incident let's take a listen. we denounce my refusal to let humanitarian assistance reach venezuela what kind of a sick tyrant stops food from getting to hungry people the images of burning trucks filled with sickening. sekret the ripple specialist in full fire go permissions believe he fools the world with a truck burnt in colombia by his own agents now u.s.

media and western media seem to be echoing and repeating that it was. responsible for this aid truck catching on fire they blame it squarely on maduro and say he let these trucks on fire his supporters went out and burned an aid convoy however video has surfaced seeming to show another another interpretation of that we've got video at this point that seems to indicate that it was opposition activists who burned the aid envoy they took you know flaming objects threw them at the convoy catching it on fire let's look at some of this video that has surfaced that seems to tell a different story than what american media say.

and it is not just the aide campaign that is putting pressure on the venezuelan leader u.s. senator marco rubio has tweeted images of the late libyan leader moammar gadhafi as he was about to be brutally murdered the tweet is not caption bond with president maduro a favorite theme for rubio's recent messages many are interpret ing it as a warning to mature. because nothing says human rights like gloating over a human being getting sodomized to death with a buy and that marco rubio just posted photos of gadhafi being lynched in an open death threat to madeira libya is now a slave state thanks to us you mark or you had the range piece of who should immediately resign marco rubio is freed has become like a manic paranoid regime change demanding boss account would probably be investigated for suspicious activity by the twitter authorities if he was not a u.s. senator of the reaction to the post has not been limited to twitter alone of there

is now a petition demanding the senators resignation with accusations rubio is promoting violence against a head of state he spoke to some experts to get their views on the situation. well i think it's all part of a strategy of tension as the americans are building up what the americans are trying to do is put pressure on the military in venezuela to shift to the doura so far that hasn't happened the weakness in the durance position is is that unlike his predecessor hugo chavez face of the coupe twenty years ago which as you call a mass movement that was virtual insurrection in crackers which saved to save them . no more do is grow on almost entirely on the army and the reason that kind of thus far we haven't seen this kind of mass movement coming to his aid you can't point to us intervention which is ended well in libya as a great notable case where they went into the most prosperous country in africa now

turn it into the least prosperous country that they know they need for this to work out the way they want they are just trying to provoke violence on the border to justify intervention they need a certain amount of deaths too with actually what they're trying to do here with the regime change they don't care how many people die they don't care about them and split on. iran's foreign minister mohammad zarif has unexpectedly announced he is stepping down zarif said register resignation has been confirmed by iran's state run news agency but no reason for the move was disclosed artie's correspondent past there as more. well how much of that is our if announced his resignation on instagram he was very vague saying that he apologized for any kind of shortcomings during his tenure as foreign minister he hasn't as of yet given any reason as to why he was signed we know that this

resignation needs to be accepted by president rouhani but certainly it will be a blow to the president because the foreign minister was a close ally particularly in his dealings with the west he became zarif the foreign minister back in august two thousand and thirteen he is a career diplomat he's well known for being a good orator for being fluent in english and he has over the years held a significant number of diplomatic and cabinet posts including being iran's permanent representative to the united nations two years after he was appointed foreign minister in two thousand and fifteen he led the iranian the go shooting team for the landmark nuclear deal and when he spoke to journalists in vienna he was clearly emotional was the. outlook. is not very large number. right now.

the fact that the americans later with withdrew from the deal the fact that american president donald trump we impose sanctions the fact that the economy in iran is struggling a lot of that is being blamed both on him and on the president in recent months he has appeared visibly strained and he's normally collected composure has been noticed by observers to be a little bit visibly flustered and not so smooth a politician as we've come to expect him to be but as i say as of yet no reason given as to his resignation we're waiting to hear we spoke to a political science professor cohen who thinks zorra is a casual is casually casual to excuse me of the failure of negotiations with the u.s. . with foreign minister zarif resigning that this particular time what's going on well we've seen president trump pull out of the joint comprehensive plan

of action back in may of last year and this was an agreement between iran and other western powers that they agreed not to develop nuclear weapons and to have some sort of understanding with the west with president trump pulling out of that agreement and threatening directly threatening iran foreign minister zarif was considered part of the moderate camp and president rouhani. attempt to have some sort of office standing with the wells and all that to develop their economy in the next few weeks you will see a change in personnel and a change in tactics at different levels of the iranian economy but make no doubt this is coal's. president trump pulling out of this international

agreement that many european powers and also agreed to with iran in puns donald trump a north korean leader kim jong un are gearing up for a second summit in vietnam this week our correspondent is on the ground coming up after a short break stay with us. the liberals in america they consider themselves to be living in

a pedestal. classes and they're never wrong and they have the moral high ground and occasionally when there are policies are exposed as fraudulent. and they are don't want to deal with their mascot they bring in a max or william kristol to beat people up there. this is arch international so the u.s. and north korean leaders donald trump and kim jong un are meeting in vietnam this week commenting on the upcoming summit of russia's foreign minister expressed cautious optimism saying he hopes for

a breakthrough regarding denuclearization but sergey lavrov also warned that ultimatums would not work so much we are certain that u.s. ultimatums will lead to the u.s. demands that north korea completely eliminate everything related to nuclear weapons and only then we're going to discuss lifting sanctions almost what they're bringing what will be a trump and kim's second summit last summer they met in singapore in a recent tweet donald trump promised economic prosperity to north korea if pyongyang abandons its nuclear program and added kim will make a wise decision trump also maintained that he would not lift sanctions on must be young and denuclearize and he's going to try to reports now from vietnam. perhaps it's still a bit too early to see a kim get together in washington or pyongyang so once again the organizers opted for somewhere neutral.

just by looking at the flag of communist vietnam it's immediately clear why chairman kim would certainly feel at home here. as we know the americans have their own special connection to this country but the leaders got installed with the vietnamese authorities before they even arrived or rather their almost famous look alike. anyway with the hot i wrote spinning spruced up for the big event the real kim has already hit the road he chose to get to vietnam via train and his people looked thrilled to see him no wonder kim has given himself a nice long head start crossing all of china takes time when the leaders met for

the first time just saying this. was enough to make the summit a real bombshell but no written or signed agreements came out of it how's that for a preemptive social media trick to break the stalemate chairman kim realizes perhaps better than anyone else that without nuclear weapons his country could fast become one of the greatest economic power was anywhere in the world because of its location and people and him it has more potential for rapid growth than any other nation making the second summit work is a matter of procedure for donald trump but will it work the mega man might have to . give something up to could that mean less pentagon involvement in south korea mr kim knows how to play on family guy trumps emotions too it's just been revealed he once said this to america's top diplomat mike pumpin i'm a father and

a houseman's and i have children and i don't want my children to care with a nuclear weapon on their back their whole life this week it's time for donald trump and cam john to do a bit more than just pose for the cameras or send each other romantic letters i've received two letters from chairman camp what personal correspondence magnificent very strong letter form incredible letters said syme to agree on and cement something real which makes the vietnam chapter of the kim trump relationship even more unpredictable than when they first insert or. look alike that ilya mentioned in his report has been deported from vietnam impersonator said noid did not have a sense of humor doppelganger has been allowed to stay and it is not only officials who are busy preparing for the summit a bar in one noise has rolled out a new content featuring a mix of american and korean spirits and is said to represent the fiery character

of the two leaders is called rocket man apparently a play on one of the insults trump a director that can not so long ago meanwhile a barber's shop is offering haircuts mimicking those of trump and kim jong the service is being provided free of charge a way of promoting the piece on a more serious note we spoke with eric's roque in the founder of lawyers for demilitarization and peace in korea he told us the choice of host country for the talks is telling. well i think it's really interesting that they're meeting in vietnam a country that we killed millions of people and had a horrific more after the korean war and a country in which we have formal diplomatic relations now a lot of trade and that the u.s. president is comfortable going there for a summit that vietnam i think was something very perhaps symbolic to the

koreans it would provide a certain level to kim jong un to travel there to fuel more comfortable there it's an odd choice if we're not going to make a deal because i mean it took hundreds of meetings to have a deal in the end the vietnam war and people met and they met they met again in paris over and over and over again until the paris accords finally ended that war but you know so it is an example of a long. durance race that we're facing that vietnam represents or is it really the idea that you can have economic success and be able to make peace with people who've been at least for so long it's a very powerful symbol. primary school children in the u.k. will be taught about gay and transgender relations it is part of a plan by the government to overhaul sex education in the country but he's an

associate you're going to has more. what the department of education has been suggesting is including new compulsory classes on a sex ad for schools across england which would include things such as relationship education for primary school kids which would mean children as young as four years old and a sex and relationship classes for secondary school pupils as well as mental and physical health classes for all the children attending schools in england and this has been causing quite a stir not only is this the first attempt to put in place new regulation as long as twenty years but this is also been a very divisive issue so far in the sense that there's been lots of debate about the role parents play in this with some saying that while the government promises that the parents will be able to withdraw their children from any classes related

to sex until those children reach the age of consent and then make those decisions themselves many parents have been saying that is just not good enough they're describing till they don't want any such topics to be part of a mandatory curriculum and have been saying that it's up to the parents to educate their children on such issues we have grave concerns about the physical or psychological and spiritual implications of teaching children about certain sexual and relational concepts proposed in c. and believe that they have no place within a mandatory school curriculum that's part of an online petition that was signed by over one hundred thousand people which in itself prompted a debate in parliament earlier today here in westminster where we're debating really the extent of this problem with questions about age appropriateness with questions about the school all of this will be taking as well as how it would all end up working in the end of the law. to have the. to the children

of these prophecies those the good was taken the good so that we can for example religious schools i don't blame parents for saying they want to up their kids out because this has become so divisive and so polarizing that they cannot see a way out without any all the transition mechanisms well this a new curriculum is not set to roll out until september twenty twenty but with so many opinions and groups supporting this idea and just as many people being against having these kinds of guidelines in schools across england it's quite clear that this is going to continue to be a very divisive issue here much more to international. countries gone into a nihilistic fever i think and we've got to hit the road and get out to travelling

across america to find what makes america take the show is the genius. of the south american era this is it we've come to a point from which alan would have done something we always are on the bridge or something the gun culture is really important. because. we're starting west with this is going to head east into the swamp we're going into the belly of the beast and i think i want to leave now doesn't get any more ground on the net it may be completely different but the minister. would call make this manufacture consent to stick to the public will. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the final merry go round if suddenly the one percent.

we can all middle of the room sit. really. i mean really in the real world. so when you want to be president and you. have to go to the press before. people. our age.
