3:06 pm
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 oppression of them to the regime its good people of venezuela she just freedom we will go with you you go but go. how do you. pan's has also had a message for the self-proclaimed interim president while quite a 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 outside the colombian ministry of foreign affairs they denounced both the prospect of foreign intervention and work out of colluding with washington to attack venezuela. as political and civil tensions over venezuela violent pup political
3:07 pm
analyst chris bambery shared with us his thoughts on the country's future. while the americans are trying to do is put pressure on the military venezuela to shift to do so for that hasn't happened the weakness of the druze position is is that unlike his predecessor hugo chavez speech of the coup twenty years ago which as you call a mass movement that was brutal insurrection crackers received to save them are no . 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 recede so the thousand that i was in one job all question is is what. will take is it going to continue support will 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
3:08 pm
sight of american troops in any white american country brings back memories of america's record on that continent. trey's a may has told m.p.'s they'll get a say on whether to rule out a no deal bragg's it and crash out of the e.u. in a month's time or to delay britain's departure the vote will be trinket if the commons rejects the prime minister's budget plan next month her offer was met with yet more skepticism from m.p.'s. i've lost. count the number of times the prime minister has come to this house to explain a further delay voted to end on certain g.i. backing the deal the government. here the prime minister can surely not be unaware of the fear out there in the country about what no deal means my 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
3:09 pm
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 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 i live employment is falling 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 the choice before us is clear this deal all leave with no deal all knee or no
3:10 pm
bricks it at all we can choose to leave with no deal we could risk no breaks it all before we can choose to unite and support the best deal that can be negotiated this deal with for so 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's 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 a 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 reason may has an ounce she will be holding a second meaningful vote i choose day the twelfth of march at the latest then
3:11 pm
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 the two reason mase 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 to resume a 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 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
3:12 pm
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 two reason they didn't accept this option of a delay. to bragg's it and jeremy corbin the leader of the opposition labor party he's come out with his own brags that announcement and that is that the labor party won't support a reason maze of botched plan is jeremy corbyn calls it so for all those thinking that this brags it ride would be over either way after the twenty 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
3:13 pm
just another day in the land of bragg's it. in the claims it's head to training camp belonging to a kashmir based terror group killing three hundred fighters according to government sources in foreign secretary says the us try targeted the jai sham hunt which was responsible for the deaths of at least forty police officers earlier this month. india has been repeatedly urging pakistan to be action against a gesture moment to prevent jihad these from being trained and armed in so focused on. but. no concrete action to dismantle the infrastructure of terrorism on its soil in the face of. a preemptive strike became absolutely mississippi. the strikes are the first across the defacto border war between the two countries broke out in one nine hundred seventy one pakistan condemned the
3:14 pm
incursion while the military rejected india's claim saying that no infrastructure was hit no casualties were ported and pakistani jets forced the engine planes back to their own territory. the pakistani military also showed images of the alleged aftermath of the incident the foreign minister insists his country will respond. only. on call for aggression. reform the time and leave her to use it. ok here's what the experts in both india and pakistan have been telling us. argue sunny's going to be nigh that. succeeded militarily because that would be a huge blow to tear out christy especially of the military establishment saw in fact they denied that we succeeded in two thousand and sixteen as well when prime
3:15 pm
minister narendra modi ordered to be. surgical strike or special operations mission inside the senate territory on both cases we made a point that terrorism will not go unanswered and that's why you want to see these contrasting accounts that i think the situation is very good to defer to your illiberal of the scene where this indian blue inherited it was empty land it was a lot east because of the shift of the four bombs that did drop there was a nearby mud to rally and i think that the gods have a good one person was injured and that is all what has happened there are no funerals the i don't know dead bodies but there is all but does affect their dead is a little pox on solving the people 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. a development now. a top story the united states said
3:16 pm
ahead of the u.n. security council session that it's not going to carry out a military operation in venezuela the u.s. envoy also said that his country's presidential palace will be venti this week. the russian said today right here right here and take no attraction intense violence that turns no. while the un's most powerful body discusses the crisis violence is again flaring at the venezuelan border with colombia over the blockade of humanitarian aid venezuelan leaders say it's a preventative measure against intervention. the turmoil in venezuela is heightened by a debate over whether to allow u.s. aid into the country truckloads of supplies are massed on the borders with colombia and brazil over the weekend as a major has blocked the deliveries fearing the lorries could be carrying weapons clashes at checkpoints between opposition supporters and people all tomatoes are left at least two people died over the weekend.

3:19 pm
of my duros corrupt fraudulent and incompetent reign which just this weekend brought instability and violence to the borders of two other member states brazil and colombia. and his cronies and some in this body claim that delivering humanitarian assistance is a political show and a cover for military intervention. but it is very clear only the madeira regime is using violence only the regime has called in both its security forces and armed gangs only the regime has betrayed venezuelan independence and sovereignty by submitting to the influence of cuban officers who permeate the security and intelligence agencies only the regime has a history of using humanitarian aid as both
3:20 pm
a political tool for social control and a source for rampant corruption the girl wants to maintain power in the current crisis and he has can you continue to politicize aid via the clop program providing benefits to his supporters while rejecting the need to based focus assistance must as under secretary general de carlo said must have. any additional time enduros spends in power is additional time he will use to oppress the venezuelan people this has been proven time and again and this weekend was yet another example and when he was brought face to face with the truth the truth that contrary to his false claims this aid was not needed venezuelan children were filmed by only v.c. on combing through garbage to search for food. when he was brought face to face with that truth by only see on what it mr ruggiero do he detained journalists
3:21 pm

3:22 pm
been usurped much like the country itself by maduro we believe that both why dosa porters and can rebuild their country together can construct a newly prosperous and democratic venezuela we are also deeply concerned about the safety. of interim president why dole upon his return to venezuela council members it is our duty to ensure that interim president is able to return home freely and safely. now is the time to strengthen our commitment to the brave venezuelan people we call on the members of the security council to join us in meeting the growing needs in venezuela and the region we call on member states to consider what resources and tools they have to contribute to venezuelan democracy and to pressure the illegitimate madrone regime to peacefully step down we ask that
3:23 pm
others join us in sanctioning those who've been involved in the violence over the last weekend and who are fattened. by the spoils of the manure all regimes corruption we ask of member states contribute to addressing the humanitarian situation venezuela as dozens of nations already have generally have generously done. and we have to recognize the nature of the manure a regime and question question the purpose and likely outcome of so-called dialogue. with someone who would rather block and burn donated medicine and bread then see it in the hands of venezuelan children. jorge ramos who were on about the value of dialogue with nicole laws. the people of venezuela need our solidarity and our help if they are to prevail against a vicious and violent regime emerge into democracy and begin to rebuild their
3:24 pm
country let us resolve to give them that help to give them both solidarity and assistance thank you. yes. thank. you just watching the u.n. security council meeting discussing the venezuelan crisis. now vietnam's capital is playing host to a second summit between the u.s. president and the north korean leader donald trump's air force one touched down a few hours ago a arrived a little earlier on tuesday it's hoped they can reach a compromise. nation of the korean peninsula as well as the lifting of crippling sanctions imposed on. me video agency producer. in hanoi for us. and enthusiasm and hopefulness with second son but with kim john on the horizon
3:25 pm
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 peace opportunity is on the table some media reports even claim north korean leader kim said this to us top diplomat mike. i'm a father and a 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. this is i'm donald trump faces over the summit from opposition at home north korea through its own state media war and the skeptics to not let this is sturrock opportunity be shattered but the summit does not only concern just washington and pyongyang so how do the other regional neighbors feeling about it. despite the fact to pencil several north korean test missiles flying over it is the concern over the outcome of the talks
3:26 pm
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 a nobel price he said i have nominated you or we specially in behalf of japan. i am asking them to give you the nobel peace price that that not cool over well with the opposition especially after prime minister's office refused to comment on the allegations abduction nuclear insult 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 moon just like his ally in washington has also
3:27 pm
said that he's expecting great things coming out of this meeting. i expect it to be a turning point to the advances completed denuclearization of the korean peninsula new u.s. north korean relations and a peace regime on the korean peninsula president moved my 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 white trail 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 series of facebook news pages linked back online
3:28 pm
after the firm producing them agreed to these social media giants new demands facebook could block the popular pages for ten days the four sides including in the now were restored after details about the projects that were made clear they're produced by the german registered company rafiq media which is largely owned by r.t. is video news agency of up lee media and says his editorially independent party sione so now he says facebook is demands are unprecedented. after ten days down all math pages including in the now a backup we had to put an unprecedented disclaimer in our about section no channel 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 say 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 produces facebook doesn't currently have
3:29 pm
a formal policy in place requiring state actor at last to disclose their funding but a spokesperson revealed that is seeking to exhibit potentially misleading behavior with more to be announced journalist and political commentator martin somers since the social networks should show more respect for their users facebook is drawing the attention is going to draw 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 a lot to make them on which side of the fence there on you know all of these big media companies are actually under 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 we argue this is to do with misleading information is a red herring it's nothing to do with the general thing about disintegration and i'm afraid that's the space that's developing those people won't accept genuine opinions which they wish they disagree with or just won't try and suppress them
3:30 pm
because they're involved in psychological warfare. kaiser report is up next so stay with us. after the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going to do next the multiple different clubs on one hand it is logical to sit in the home field where everything is familiar on the other i wanted a new challenge and a fresh perspective i'm used to surprising people and i saw one not if you think. i'm going to talk about football not the or else if you think i was going to go. by the way ways of that slide here.
