1:03 pm
matter. sarcasm and arrogance towards the new zone people the u.s. is preparing a military invasion of an independent state transport and american special forces to puerto rico landing u.s. forces in colombia all the facts indicate that the pentagon is strengthening its troops in the region to oust legally elected president. people understand this world reaction their refusal to accept the goods from the aggressor country and support the president while the secretary also added that the u.s. has offered to hold a meeting on the situation and as well aware the russian side and moscow agreed however these two meeting never took place and it was rescheduled using different reasons for several times so while russia's security council as well as one as well a warning of a possible u.s. military intervention washington as well as self nominated candidate one. dog
1:04 pm
have never ruled out of that particular possibility moreover of why dog recently said that it is time to take action and the other day he also tweeted that it's time to make a decision and proposed to the international community to keep all options open the warnings from russia come shortly after president went to cold out the u.s. for preparing to wage a war over venice when his vast over sources he blames washington for stirring discontent in his country the united states wants venezuela's oil and they're willing to go to war for about oil they are trying to fabricate a crisis justify political escalation and a military intervention in venezuela. meanwhile the so-called lima group gathered in colombia with opposition leader to discuss the crisis the bloc of fourteen countries is sending an appeal to the international criminal court demanding it consider the humanitarian situation in venezuela with an eye on what they call materials criminal violence against his own people the vast majority of the lima
1:05 pm
group a back to the u.s. vice president was also among the attendees to pledge additional funding for those who side with washington today also it's my privilege to announce that the united states will provide an additional thirty 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 oppression of the dual regime it's good people of venezuela should your freedom we will go with you. hugo would grow. pens has also had a message for the self-proclaimed interim president that the u.s. is one hundred percent behind him he also called on the venezuelan military to accept an offer of amnesty or face being held accountable for the weekend's border violence as the lima group held discussions around two hundred protesters gathered
1:06 pm
outside the colombian ministry of foreign affairs they denounced both the prospect of foreign intervention and because of colluding with washington to attack. as political and civil tensions over venezuela ramp up political analyst chris bambery shared with this is thoughts on the country's future. well the americans are trying to do is put pressure on the military in venezuela to shift the doura so far that hasn't happened the weakness of the duras position is is that unlike his predecessor hugo chavez face of the coup twenty years ago which of those who call a mass movement that was brutal insurrection in caracas received to save them. no. one 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 so the thousand of those in one job all question is is what attitude of venezuela will take is he going to continue
1:07 pm
support would do and if that's the case the potential for civil war personally i'm cynical about the americans intervening directly because i believe the stomach for it in the united states of america pushed the right course to libya and also the sight of american troops in any white american country brings back memories of america's record on that continent. trey's may has told m.p.'s they'll get a say on whether to rule out or no deal breaks it and cross out of time or to delay britain's departure the vote will be triggered if the commons rejects the prime minister's brags that plan next month her offer was met with yet more skepticism from m.p.'s. i've lost count of the number of times the prime minister has come to this house to explain a further delay voted to end on certain g.i. bucking the deal the government. here and the prime minister can surely not be unaware of the fear out there in the country about what no deal means my
1:08 pm
sole focus throughout all of this has been on getting a deal that enables us to leave the european union on the twenty ninth of march with a deal this is a shameful moment nothing has changed from the fact that some of us who used to sit over there are now sitting over here it is the prime minister's obstinacy that is blocking a resolution and it is the right honorable gentleman who has kept no deal on the table by refusing to agree. i will not sit one more day and listen to her crow about employment going up where where our lives employment is for living and get used bro you can only be described as grotesquely reckless yeah the world of politics is a fickle cycle place take a listen to all the times to reason may insisted that it was her way or the highway
1:09 pm
the choice before us is clear this deal all leave with no deal all the or no bricks it we can choose to leave with no deal we could risk no bricks it at all or we can choose to unite and support the best deal that can be negotiated this deal for as long as we fail to agree a deal the risk of an accidental no deal increases the deal we've negotiated is a deal that almost a referendum on as a result of the referendum and it's the best deal if it indeed is the only deal available any delay is a delay it doesn't address the issue it doesn't. resolve the issue i think there is the opportunity to leave with the deal on the twenty ninth of march and that's what we're going to be working on well that was the gist of her message up until as late as last night when she gave a press conference in sharm el sheikh but today following a cabinet meeting where is it is she ended up with her back against the wall to
1:10 pm
reason may has an ounce that she will be holding a second meaningful vote might choose day the twelfth of march at the latest then if she loses that vote the government she says will hold another parliamentary vote on whether or not the house supports a no deal departure from the e.u. and if we end up in a situation where both to reason may's deal and a no deal scenario have been rejected by politicians in parliament then on the fourteenth of march the government will start the parliamentary process that will approve what to reason may be referred to as a short and necessary delay to britain's departure from the e.u. a delay of around about two months to resume a said and some politicians started saying immediately that this delay such
1:11 pm
a short delay would simply prolong the kind of chaos that we're seeing now and put all of the prospect of a cliff edge no deal bragg's it by simply just a couple of months to resume a's argument is that we can't possibly the u.k. can't be members of the e.u. by the end of june when there will be e.u. parliamentary elections that just isn't an option the u.k. shouldn't be taking part in those if it wants to leave the e.u. to resume a was under intense pressure from some of her own cabinet ministers who were threatening to resign if to reason they didn't accept this option oh. of a delay to break is it and jeremy corbin the leader of the opposition labor party he's come out with his own brags that announcement and that's that the labor party won't support to resume maze of botched plan as jeremy corbyn calls it so for all those thinking that this brags it ride would be over either way after the twenty
1:12 pm
ninth of march well now it could be suspended up in the air until the end of may or if labor gets its way there could be another public vote to potentially cancel the entire thing just another day in the land of bragg's it. a series of facebook news pages linked to r.t. are back online after the firm producing them agreed to the social media giants new demands facebook had blocked the popular pages for ten days the four sites including in the now were restored after details about the project's owner were made clear they're produced by the german registered company matic media which is largely owned by r.t.s. video news agency ruptly moffitt media insists is editorially independent of r.t. c.e.o. and he said now it says facebook's demands are unprecedented after ten days down all my pages including in the now a backup we have to put an unprecedented disclaimer in our part section no channel
1:13 pm
has ever been required to do that let's hope this policy will be rolled out and be required of all channels not just ones that see things some people don't like facebook took the pages down only after it was contacted by u.s. news network c.n.n. but it was five days after that when the social platform finally contacted the pages producers facebook doesn't currently have a formal policy in place requiring state backed outlets to disclose their funding but a spokesperson revealed that it's seeking to exhibit potentially misleading behavior with the move to be announced journalist and political commentator martin somers things the social networks should show more respect for their uses. facebook is donating the potential is going to do it commercially if it doesn't time for the respect of the people who use it and that's that that's the dilemma they're in governments are putting the pressure to do certain things but their audiences on put him under pressure to do the opposite to make their money which side of the fence they're on you know all of these big mick media companies are actually under
1:14 pm
scrutiny about what they actually do and you know how they actually operate and what they allow what they don't allow in how they're funded and so on i think the idea of this is to do with misleading information is a red herring it's nothing to do with a general thing about this information and i'm afraid that's the space that's developing knows that people won't accept genuine opinions which they they disagree with it just won't try and suppress them because they're involved in psychological warfare. angrily refuting india's claim that it's killed hundreds of militants in kashmir as the rivals ramp up the threats the latest reaction after this break. the liberals in america they consider themselves to be living in pedestals.
1:15 pm
masses and they're never wrong and they have the moral high ground and occasionally when their policies are exposed as frauds. and they're don't want to deal with their unmasking they bring in a max or william kristol to beat people up there. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have crazy confrontation let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic developments only really exist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit. tom.
1:16 pm
welcome back to the program india claims it's had a training camp belonging to a kashmir based terror group killing three hundred fighters according to government sources the indian foreign secretary says the air strike targeted the josh a mohammad group which was responsible for the death of the lead police officers earlier this month. india has been repeatedly urging pakistan to be action against a gesture mama to prevent jihad these from being trained and armed inside pakistan . but because the un has no concrete action to dismantle the infrastructure of terrorism on its soil in the face of. a preemptive strike became absolutely misses. the strike so the first across the defacto border since a war between the two countries broke out in one nine hundred seventy one pakistan condemned the incursion while the military rejected india's claims saying that no infrastructure was hit no casualties were reported and pakistani jets forced the
1:17 pm
engine planes back to their own territory. the pakistani military also shared images of the alleged aftermath of the instant the foreign minister insists his country will respond. to. all. of it. here's what experts in both india and pakistan have been telling us. argue sunny's going to be nigh. succeeded militarily because that would be a huge blow to dear christy especially of the military establishment. in fact they denied that we succeeded in two thousand and sixteen as well when prime minister narendra modi ordered. surgical strike or special operations mission inside the senate territory on both cases the middle class and terrorism will not
1:18 pm
go unanswered and that's why if you want to see these contrasting accounts i think the situation is very clear. all the scene where this. inherited it was empty land it was in august because of the shift of the four bombs that did go up there was a nearby mud the rolling and i think that the guts of a good. person was injured and that is all what has happened there are more funerals the other lot dead bodies but there is all but there is a third there did is a little box on solvent and pakistan has made it clear that they are going to get it back but in what manner that is a question that is a guess by anybody. to american states have back to law that seeks to overturn the way people choose their president in the u.s. currently it comes down to primarily how many states and won by a candidate as opposed to
1:19 pm
a one person one vote basis calls for change in grain says dollar terms victory in twenty sixteen eke out of place at that. america a place that writes abates backwards has a really weird voting system and uses around four times more water than europe to flush their number ones and twos and if you think i'm going to talk about flushing here i totally will except not in the sense you were perhaps expecting the us voting system so far has been centered around the concept of an. electoral college but there's a growing movement in america to send it down the drain and see what i did there the states of new mexico and colorado have backed a law that seeks to decide who wins the presidency based on how the majority of people vote making sure that people no matter where they happen to live. have an equal vote we or last i checked the legislature and we do under the united states
1:20 pm
constitution have an authority to determine whatever manner we would like to appoint our electors if you're confused at this point you have every right to be in the us it's not about how many people vote for each candidate like in most democracies it is about how many states each candidate wins. every four years the people of america elect a president well they don't not directly they are electing the electors and the electors vote for the president that happens in every us state the more people that live in a state the more electors they have so you just have to choose the elected pledged the candidate you like best if a majority in your state vote for the electors supporting a different candidate that will mean your state supports him or her to become president so it's not a popular vote which determines the president to get into the white house candidates need the electors to support them with at least half is enough mass two hundred seventy people to the future president doesn't really need
1:21 pm
a popular majority in fact the candidate could even lose the popular vote but still win with enough electors in the bag. this is how gore lost to bush in year two thousand despite getting half a million more people's votes and more recently that's how hillary clinton lost to trump so no wonder she's been one of the most vocal advocates to tear down the electoral college do you think the electoral college should be able i said that in two thousand i think it needs to be eliminated i'd like to see us move beyond it yes ironically for this to happen just like with electing the president laws like in colorado and new mexico have to be passed in states comprising the minimum of the same two hundred and seventy votes with eleven states in on this already there are more than halfway there a recent poll shows that the majority of america. also want to see the shift to the popular vote but the republicans are saying that this initiative will leave the
1:22 pm
flyovers states voiceless it is an attack on the constitution that will forever change our representative form of government it is your votes and your choices are no longer your own we are going to tie your representation. to what the other forty nine states choose us societies split along many lines and now the fates ovi more than two centuries old the concept of how generations of americans have been choosing a leader is being added to the list. in arms capital is playing host to a second summit between the u.s. president and the north korean leader. one touched on a couple of hours ago while. a little earlier on tuesday video agency produced. for us. and enthusiasm in hopefulness with second summit with kim john on the
1:23 pm
horizon trump feels like is on top of the world i hope that very positive things are going to happen i think that it will be a very exciting couple of days what are the feelings mutual well north korea seems to be excited and no wonder after all historic opportunity is all that's able some media reports even claim north korean leader kim said this to us top diplomat mike pompei oh i'm a father and husband and i have children and i don't want my children to carry the nuclear weapon on their back their whole life still considering criticism donald trump faces over the summit from opposition at home north korea through its own state media war in the skeptics to not let this is sturrock opportunity be shattered but the summit does not only concern just washington in pyongyang so how do the other regional neighbors feeling about it. despite the fact japan's also over north korean test missiles flying over it was the concern over the outcome of
1:24 pm
the talks after all if a deal is struck it's unclear whether japan's concerns will be addressed what made the situation worse with the allegations that japanese prime minister abby officially requested for trump to be nominated for the nobel peace price in fact i think i can say this prime minister robbie of japan gave me the most beautiful. copy of a letter that he sent to the people who give out a thing called the nobel price he said i have nominated you or we specially on behalf of japan. i am asking them to give you the nobel peace prize that that not colver well what the opposition especially after prime minister's office refused to comment on the allegations abduction new quinn sought to mid range missile issues not resolved at all i'm concerned that it would give the wrong message to north korea and the international community if we accept that the current situation deserves the nobel peace prize. south korean president whom just like us in
1:25 pm
washington has also said that he's expecting great things coming out of this meeting. i expect it to be a turning point that advances complete to denuclearization of the korean peninsula new u.s. north korean relations and a peace regime on the korean peninsula president move might come out of this as the biggest winner of these talks and in a way it seems that he is risking more than anyone else if these talks lead to a dead end after all this country that will be among the prime targets for the nuclear capable north korean missiles south korean foreign minister said his country is looking forward to a quote tangible and substantial results with all the hopes skepticism and fears involved coming to a specific results might turn out to be a very tough challenge for everyone involved in the situation but considering that the idea of i.q. west north korean summit started absolutely impossible just two years ago maybe there is still a chance for a happy go collusion. a controversial katina tennis star serena williams having
1:26 pm
a temp attention that was branded racist at seven cortez has been cleared by australian watchdog has won two peoples are. i think i look so subtle that this was because their adult children on their own derogatory it's a very sort of stereotypical old school racist features that he's done using up essentially racist tropes to depict serina williams.
1:27 pm
the council considers that the code to use this exaggeration and absurdity to make its point but except the publishers claim that it does not to be mrs williams as a knight rather showing her as speaking of the dummy and non-racist caricature community or to most australian media such as. the finding by those trained in the press council that the race is good too does not reach media standards proves that the council has utterly no anti-racism standards of tool did they even look at it as trying to impress councillors me that serena williams called soon is not racist here it's shit and members looks about white we don't need confirmation from the ng the serene williams katsumi was here a serious player as best as up next here a lot international so do stay with us.
