feel. as if violence flares out the colombia venezuela border the un security council meeting called to discuss the crisis turns into a war of words. that others join us in sanctioning those who've been involved in the violence over the last weekend instead of a hypocritical attempt to introduce assistance for twenty million dollars it is necessary to lift the blocking of accounts of venezuelan state owned enterprises in american banks which totals eleven billion dollars. cornered in the commons the british prime minister says m.p.'s will get a vote on a no deal bragg's it or to delay britain's departure if they reject teresa mayes

11:02 pm
ah ah ah. ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah the turmoil in venezuela is being heightened by a debate over whether to allow u.s. aid into the country truckloads of supplies have been amassed on the borders with colombia and brazil over the weekend president maduro has blocked the deliveries fearing the vehicles could be carrying weapons clashes at checkpoints between opposition supporters and people loyal to madeira left at least four people dead over the weekend. the u.n. security council has met in new york to discuss the situation in venezuela u.s. envoy for venezuela elliott abrams called for more sanctions on caracas in response russian representative the ceiling a ban zia raised in the u.s. history of military interventions and called other countries naive for supporting the u.s. position more dural and his cronies and some in this body claim that delivering
11:03 pm
humanitarian assistance is a political show as to what took place on saturday was reminiscent not of help but by what the u.s. calls force feeding which apparently having trained on guantanamo prisoners the american authorities decided to force feed the whole country we ask that others join us in sanctioning those who've been involved in the violence over the last weekend and stead of a hypocritical attempt to introduce assistance for twenty million dollars it is necessary to lift the blocking of accounts of venezuelan state owned enterprises in american banks which totals eleven billion dollars what about venezuelan gold in great britain washington and london just recently stole thirty billion dollars from the venezuelan people in oil and bank assets a lot of money is owed. to russia. and you are no doubt worrying whether that money is going to be repaid i am addressing the countries that have supported the self-proclaimed president. are you so naive that you think you have
11:04 pm
immunity from things like this do you think that you will not be next in line i reject from top to bottom accusations of military intervention from a country that is occupying the territory of georgia and ukraine in so upset you know because you're in crimea against the background of what you were doing in venezuela your accusations just sound ridiculous while as you just heard it was a rather tense atmosphere as we heard from the fifteen members of the u.n. security council addressing the meeting on venezuela now it's important to know that the representative of the united states who took the floor on behalf of the united states as you just saw was elliot abrams and elliott abrams has quite a history in latin america south of the us border and he apparently was convicted for misrepresenting and essentially lying to congress regarding his that work and support for organizations in nicaragua that engaged in violent terrorism with the
11:05 pm
intention of overthrowing the sandinista government during the one nine hundred eighty s. elliott abrams was also apparently involved in the shipping in of weapons into nicaragua under the guise of humanitarian aid now the foreign minister of venezuela spoke and he pointed out that these humanitarian aid convoys seem to have some rather suspicious content here is what he said. in here we also have trucks and let me tell you that when the truck was inspected there wasn't just food and medicine in the truck there was a quick one for barricades there was nails. this is what was in the truck nails wire when security forces inspected this is what they found we have information from friendly countries like cuba and russia and the weapons are being bought in eastern europe to be given to the opposite. with the aim of seizing an armed intervention in venezuela so he was going over the fact that it appears that these trucks supposedly containing humanitarian aid had other content within them content
11:06 pm
that could have been used for violence and destabilization in venezuela he also brought photographs before the un security council showing and seeming to indicate that essentially these aid trucks that were caught on fire were lit by an anti venezuelan government activists he also showed photographs of the various cocktails you know flaming bottles that were brought to the event for the purpose of lighting a fire and causing unrest he essentially argued that this was a provoked situation and that israel was being provoked on its borders now there were clear divisions in the international community among different countries that addressed the meeting some countries were recognizing the dura as the legitimate president of venezuela as a result of the fact that he was elected over other countries seem to be lending their support to one grade zero and the opposition one way to is now in colombia and he's getting the support the united states and proclaiming himself to be the
11:07 pm
leader we discussed of the meeting in the u.n. security council and what was said there with gabriel hetland professor of latin american studies he told us that the u.s. offering relief supplies while at the same time imposing sanctions is hypocritical . the u.s. is engaged in oil sanctions against venezuela which is life far and away the main source of revenue for the entire country that's going to cost the government billions and billions of dollars and could easily lead to assam and so then turning around and offering suppose a humanitarian aid is the essence of hypocrisy on the part of the us obviously i think the us has a history of using humanitarian aid for and its various purposes so that can't be discounted and more than that i mean we don't need to sort of parse tea leaves to know that the us is openly calling for regime change in venezuela and that humanitarian aid is clearly and very openly explicitly designed to bring him out of town so it's not a secret that the us is not primarily interested in helping the management people
11:08 pm
but rather in removing the government of nicolas maduro. theresa may has told members of parliament they will 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 triggered if the commons rejects the prime minister's break the 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. 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 with a deal this is a shameful moment nothing has changed from the fact that some of us who used to sit
11:09 pm
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 growing 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 the choice before us is clear this deal all leave with no deal all the or no bricks it at all we can choose to leave with no deal we could risk no breaks it all
11:10 pm
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 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 reason may has an ounce that she will be holding a second meaningful vote i choose day the twelfth of march at the latest then if she loses that vote the government she says will hold another parliamentary vote
11:11 pm
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 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 a short delay would simply prolong the kind of chaos that we're seeing now and put off the prospect of a cliff edge no deal gregg's it by simply just a couple of months to resume a's argument is that we can't possibly the u.k.
11:12 pm
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 oh. of a delay to break states and jeremy corbin the leader of the all position labor party he's come out with his own brags that announcement and that is that the labor party won't support series of maze of boat plan as jeremy called been calls it so fruitless thinking that this briggs it ride would be either way off to 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 council the entire thing just another day in the land of bragg's it.
11:13 pm
indian media has reported a heavy exchange of fire between india and pakistan in disputed kashmir leaving at least five soldiers wounded al-jazeera says additionally that four civilians were killed including two children while seven people have been injured reports of multiple violations of the cease fire line in kashmir came in on tuesday following an airstrike by india new delhi said it hit a training camp of belonging to a kashmir based terror organization killing three hundred fighters india's foreign secretary says the air strike targeted the group mohammad which struck a police convoy earlier this month killing at least forty officers there. india has been repeatedly urging pakistan to take action against the gesture mohammad to prevent jihad these from being trained and armed inside pakistan. but has taken no concrete action to dismantle the infrastructure of terrorism on its soil in the
11:14 pm
face of. a preemptive strike became absolutely mississippi the strikes are the first across the defacto border since a war between the two countries broke out nine hundred seventy one pakistan condemned the incursion while the military rejected india's claims saying that no infrastructure was hit no casualties reported in pakistani jets forced the indian planes back to their own territory. pakistani military also shared images of the alleged aftermath of the incident the foreign minister insists his country will respond. to. all. reform. and leave the producer. all right there here is what experts on both india and pakistan have been telling us. argue sunny's going to be nigh that. succeeded militarily because that would be
11:15 pm
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 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 it comments that i think the situation is very committed to defer to your illiberal of the scene where this indian plane had hit it was empty land it was in august because of the shift of the four bombs that did drop there was a nearby mud to rolling and i think that the gods have a good one person was injured and that is all what has happened there are no funerals dead bodies but there is all but there is a fact that did it is
11:16 pm
a breach of pox on solving anything 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. here nobbs capital is playing host to a second summit between the us president and the north korean leader both donald trump and kim jong un on a ride to to hanoi on tuesday it is hoped that they can reach a compromise a leading to the denuclearization of the korean peninsula as well as the lifting of crippling sanctions imposing imposed on yet roughly video agency producer vangelis the press is in hanoi for us. and that was the main hopefulness with second summit with kim john own on the horizon trump feels like is on top of the world i do 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 a wonder after all historic by supporting it is all that's able to some media
11:17 pm
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 that back to home life still considering criticism 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 in pyongyang so how do the other regional neighbors feeling about it. despite the fact japan's will sever north korean missiles flying over it was the concern over the outcome of 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
11:18 pm
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 price that that not colver well what 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 whom just like his ally in washington has also said that he's expecting great things coming out of this meeting. i expect it to be a turning point for the advances completed 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
11:19 pm
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 point 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 by trail to be a very tough challenge for everyone involved in the situation but considering that the idea of like you west north korean summit saturday absolutely impossible just two years ago maybe there is still a chance for a happy go collusion. the former u.s. envoy to the u.n. nikki haley has found a new job she has been nominated for a seat on the board of directors of boeing corporation this according to the company's c.e.o. really is the perfect fit. and that's the haywood brings to boeing in outstanding records of the chief mint and government industry partnership and successfully draw the new responded to communities in america and around the world booming will
11:20 pm
benefit greatly from who brought perspectives and combine diplomat to government and business experience to help achieve the aspiration to be the best in aerospace and the global industrial chantant to caylee was donald trump's ambassador to the u.n. until last december she stood out as a diplomat by promoting american foreign policy positions around the globe notably on syria they will formally join the board of boeing in late april political commentator lou rockwell says that her government contacts should come in handy. well i did maybe that she's going to. introduce them introduce the boeing lobbyist the people in the trouble ministration and my guess is that she wants to set up a new partner with my pump a oh let's say the neo con i'm sure she could get the appointment so that you know that kind of thing she can do i guess maybe they feel that's worth their pay or is a good deal of money as a board member and i guess that's what she'll do so i think she has nothing except
11:21 pm
i guess she can bring money to the military industrial complex i go so maybe she's got enough connections now three that she can bring more and more contracts human rights boeing which is already immensely rich from killing people and destroying cities and civilizations and maybe she's going to help them do more of that but aren't it seems to me it may be just a p.c. they are part of a thing i don't believe that she's actually going to be an effective even effective at bringing the more contracts so that's a good thing. the british police force has been found guilty of discrimination after it rejected an applicant who is a white heterosexual male cheshire police were in the middle of a diversity drive when it turned down twenty five year old matthew furlong wanted to follow his father into the force. it is my confidence in the police force recruitment system how do i do my interview form and said i was bisexual for
11:22 pm
instance there's a strong possibility i would be working for cheshire police now based on the lie so sure police say that there are aware of the tribunals decision to have agreed to review the results for a long lawyers say it is the first discrimination case of its kind in the u.k. we put the issue up for debate with stephen morris from the english democrats party and political and social commentator monsour the police have always s'posed to be seen to be fair seem to be treat people without fear or favor thus their rules now what they're doing they are blatantly discriminating against people so any trust people have in the police is going to be gone you know how can you trust them when you know full well that they are not looking to recruit the best people for the job they are just recruited based on ticking a box so in fact what we see steven and the others who might think like him is that discrimination and treating people less favorably but for their race or their
11:23 pm
protective characteristics has been going on for decades and pretty. sad to say by white heterosexual men and they have had the jobs they've had the lion's share of income even though we monitor equal pay they will still have the lion's share and so positive action is about redressing a balance about saying that when things are in the no positive is racially sort that let me off it was discrimination no no no sorry steve stephen i'm sorry i'll correct you on a matter of fact and a matter of law having taken race discrimination cases although to the royal courts of justice no offense to stephen but this is now i do it well i'm not sure tribune official i do with racial relations cases on a daily basis and as a try to your employment role as a trade union. but i don't use racism legal causative olive discriminate you discriminate against. gays racism we've seen racism in the police force now racism is wrong it should be done on nothing else right now if you're saying positive
11:24 pm
faction that's just annoyed with related immigration even steven when we look at positive action we're talking about underrepresented minorities whether they are black whether they're muslim jewish gay bisexual transgender all the people we need policies which are fair in society and absolutely you are right and the trouble potentially is right and it's finding if they have treated him less badly but for his sex nor to doing this to actually say it was right in their eyes in question he was saying if he was he well let's see i mean appeal to things happened but at the minute the finding we have is that but for the fact of his race and if it being bisexual he had been he had been more likely to have got a job i agree we cannot discriminate even against which is wrong be sure you know should heterosexual men it's all about freedom of choice if people do not want to go join the police then fine but find out the reasons why it's not purely down to the recruitment process that. people from the pain groups or the gay groups.
