11:00 am
i. mean a little. disputed kashmir. that's the nuclear armed rivals of violence as. coming up in the program. is the way the u.s. and north korean leaders try to make headway. ending the decades long. sources tell the washington post that the u.s.
11:01 am
military disrupted internet access in russia to prevent alleged election meddling during the turks. are international news center here in moscow this is r.t. my names you know. your company our top story this hour there's been a dramatic escalation in tensions between india and pakistan india is the mounting the return of a fighter pilots arrested by make using it of violating the geneva convention by harming him pakistan earlier released video of the pilot with blood and bruises to his face the pilot was captured after. an indian war plane the video which we cannot independently verify is said to show a donde indian made twenty one fire. it. claims it shot down to earth craft in its
11:02 am
airspace over kashmir it arrest the two pilots india says it's one plane the single pilot. later closed its please earlier article to me the discrepancy between the two sides claiming. what we have absolutely so we're seeing now is the culmination of tensions that have been building with more regularity in recent years and essentially things have now come to a head to the importance and consequence of how things play out from here is very significant not just because these are two very powerful countries but because they are a nuclear arms anime is so a whole well it's pakistan is claiming claiming to have shot down two indian ass force jets and captured two pilots and says that the jets have launched air strikes in the indian territory a move that they claimed was in self-defense. pakistan is a responsible country and we don't want to endanger lives of massa's we have you know retaliated to india all being done is just what irresponsible country does for
11:03 am
its defense our message is peace and not the war now india however claims that these those pakistani jets had been pushed back. because it was to do. and of course this border isn't. in the. words of the. order to do. this is. going to go. by that is missing in action. because. he is in their custody this comes just one day after india claims it hit a militant training camp and killed a very large number of fighters from the militant group jayashri mohammed which took responsibility for that suicide bombing earlier this month which killed forty indian troops now in
11:04 am
a bizarre twist pakistan rejected india's claim saying that indian fighters were confronted before they conducted those strikes on the training camp and actually just dropped four or five bombs in an empty field and then fled back across the border so what's making this situation all the more hard to follow is how the two sides have these conflicting media campaigns both sides are pushing their own narrative and so a single source of contradictory information online and in the news but at the core of it what is very clear is what we're seeing is the first of the first aerial attacks across that line of control across that delicate kashmir border since the two countries were at war in one thousand nine hundred seventy one now speaking in the past hour the pakistani prime minister imran khan has called for a responsible approach he said noting how both of them are nuclear powers they really couldn't afford a miscalculation. and there are so while you understand what i want to ask a question of the indian government that considering the nature of the weapons that
11:05 am
both of us have is can we afford any miscalculation should we not think at this moment that if the situation escalates then where will it go it will not be in my control or narendra modi's control i'm going to get and tell you that a better sense should prevail now and we should resolve our issues by sitting together and through talks. with them are those days get a lot of spikes in tensions have a kashmir they have been up and down over the years and a fresh wave of violence really took hold in the summer of twenty sixteen but custom has always been contested territory even before india and pakistan won their independence from britain and nine hundred forty seven.
11:06 am
well there is now a multinational appeal for both sides to show restraint to conduct talks we have been getting reaction from experts on both sides of the divide here some of what they told us. i'm from the box and i have false but i would like to see peace in the region because both india and pakistan are mutually have weapons equipped and we do not want this to escalate to a mutually assured destruction because that is what will happen it is not remain in effect for five action if then and definitely escalate into a full scale of all we had it would be norms barred but you see india took an action yesterday and box than going to action today and retaliation and shutdown of
11:07 am
the aircraft i'm hoping that we let it go our back and have you sit down and talk to each other and if india has actionable intelligence ah prime minister as a cure or even take different action i don't know where there will be no response from india because there was a response and this is like a counter response which is a was part of the pakistani body see that if there is an attack on their tertiary day it will have to respond and since to order a nuclear powers country and leaders no distinct sort of any high and the we just can't afford a full fledged gone truly so the hope is that things for the not spin out of control and most of science was sort of kind of dead loss of to say and decided. let's murray distractor i'm going to look forward to some other means being of doing the war my own means maybe to a diplomat and you could create economic and on because. there are no winners and
11:08 am
the military don't know who are as we have seen so far. as you've been hearing so many layers to this story let's delve deeper into some of them with military analyst joins us live on the program good to see you pakistan and india as we're hearing very different claims about what happened your thoughts on the scrap and see it seems almost as much as an information war is a militarized. show absolutely i'm in the world we live in the now everything has to be questioned and looked into with evidence but on the face of it the pakistanis have provided the evidence of god a pilot in captivity which can only mean one thing the planes have been shot down the indians have not been able to release any video footage that verify their claims so i think this was in full was go be evidence of the in the way points to the pakistani military having the record right if you think there's
11:09 am
a chance that the the rhetoric the violence even could be dialed down at this stage does india in particular how of the patience for talks particularly after about a terror attack which killed more than forty of their police officers earlier in the month. i think both sides would like to deescalate very soon because things could go out of control there could be unintended consequences or even a mistake because things are extremely tense in the border it's a very long border but the pakistani prime minister has made it very clear that pakistan wants to talk i think the indians and pakistanis are already having back chalons to talk to each other and also regionally if you look at china saying that the evidence that the indians provided doesn't quite yet match up to what they're saying so i think pressure is on india for talks because the pakistanis are willing to talk having said that the indians also have a legitimate claim think diplomacy is something that can be carried out at the
11:10 am
moment do you think india should have expected a response as pakistan sees that it's a response was violent. on more than one occasion. yes i think india know the miscalculated in a grave way because when you violate someone's airspace and serenity there is going to be an answer pakistan have a strong air force and it's a nuclear military power so the indians violating the airspace once can happen because elements of surprise but if you do it twice you're going to get in trouble because any air force that has a good. capability is able to show. signs of this school beyond ted for tuck we know that there's a general election approaching to render modi is op again of course. could it be used to rally indian voters something like this kashmir is something close to their heart. absolutely modi has lost the local elections
11:11 am
a few months ago he lost the three biggest states in india he has a corruption inquiry or an aircraft deal and there's definitely a lot of analysts out there saying that he needed something to galvanize and one of his big focuses always has been an anti pakistan rhetoric and also their local demographics you know the lynchings and. local muslim roy movie has always played on those fears and i'm sure he's going to use this to his full advantage but so far it hasn't quite worked for him what you stated delis claiming that pakistan will target militants stop go after their own government within pakistan but turn a blind eye essentially to attacks externally we're talking essentially kashmir and india. you know i think india and pakistan have a very long history of supporting each other's groups just like india have claims against pakistan the pakistanis old claims against india especially by involvement
11:12 am
in baluchistan west of pakistan so these claims for both countries my village to me at the end of the day they are at war. if it not might not be convention lords and intelligence will and it's. both sides have claims that whether you verify them or not. well thank you for your time this are a story you are sure to be delving further into over the next couple of days military more meetings being taking place between the u.s. president on the north korean leader in the vietnamese capital the two made an appearance number of hours ago with the body language coming in from both for some scrutiny.
11:13 am
tomorrow but with more on what is to come are what is to be expected as best we know tease of success. this is president trump second attempt at making peace with north korea the two leaders met briefly for the cameras and are now having close discussions behind closed doors the talks are made up of two rounds one formal dinner and one on one talks but before coming to vietnam prison trip was under severe pressure to make a deal at the summit that came after criticism from opposition back home that said not enough was made through the last summit between the two leaders in singapore but the first summit was a great success and i think this one hopefully will be equal or greater than the first we made a lot of progress and i think the biggest progress was our relationship is really
11:14 am
a good one i think that your country has tremendous economic potential unbelievable unlimited and i think that you will have a familiar future your country a great leader and i look forward to watching it happen and helping it to happen and we will help with that trumper to read it in a tweet that a potential for a deal is quote awesome both countries to sign a piece the collaboration to symbolically end the korean war the conflict ended in the arms this not actually a peace treaty back in one nine hundred fifty three which means the war is technically still ongoing north korea would agree to return more the remains of troops who died in the korean war also the u.s. is considering to opening up a diplomatic office in north korea. could show the relations between washington are actually getting warmer north korea will agree to stop producing nuclear materials one facility and perhaps up the other ones as well in exchange the u.s. will push to lift some of the sanctions on pyongyang and will pursue
11:15 am
a joint economic project with south korea but again it's not clear what the deal exactly we can expect from this meeting but the summit does not actually only concern washington in pyongyang so let's actually have a little look and see what are the other regional neighbors feeling about it. despite the fact japan's also over a north korean test missiles flying over it 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 copy of the letter that he sent to the people who give out a thing called a nobel price he said i have nominated you or respectfully in behalf of japan.
11:16 am
i am asking them to give you the nobel peace prize that did not go over well for the opposition especially after prime minister's office refused to comment on the allegations abduction to mid range missile issues. i'm concerned that it would give the wrong message to north korea and the international community that the current situation deserves the nobel peace prize. south korean president name just like his ally in washington has also said that he is expecting great things coming out of the summit. 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 moonlight come out as the biggest winner of these talks and in a way it seems that he's 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
11:17 am
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 this 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 conclusion. a leaders' meeting was held behind closed doors with very few journalists allowed to attend that dinner donald trump reportedly joked that journalists would pay any price to hear his one on one meeting with the north korean leader or to america scottie hughes she traveled to hanoi with the presidential term list. this is been an interesting experience for the american press but obviously starting out with being here for several days and kicked out of their pull. to came into town and having to move to international press center but currently right now yes there is very limited press the press access that was given tonight was not actually open there was not an open sendai. to all of us that are
11:18 am
part of our house press pool is very select in the fact that there was only one planted that was allowed and a lot of this has to do not only with president trump i believe worried about questions being shouted out especially with the events going on with michael cohen back at home but also kim jong un himself is not necessarily used to having a free president so i think of us it's beneficial of both sides but they are saying yesterday as president tom pointed out in the conference today that he is hoping for something to morrow that hopefully will be open to the press seeing the backlash that the american president is getting for the limited poll that he did not. moving on the u.s. military has carried out its first offensive cyber operation against russia sources told the washington post that u.s. cyber command blocked internet access overseas to what they called a russian truly factory during the twenty eight thousand midterm elections. of course the story. what we basically have is and washington post oh it's
11:19 am
a coke claiming that the u.s. military managed to blow internet access to one russian group known as internet research agency on the day of the country's meat turns november last year some in america believe that this group might be in for the alleged aim to fear reigns in the country's presidential elections by scholz all of whom spoke to the paper on the condition of anonymous has also added in the article that that attack in two thousand and eighteen was just the beginning of what is supposed to be a massive cyber campaign against russia the first muscle flexing where u.s. cyber command with intelligence from the national security agency under new authorities it was granted by president trump and congress last year to bolster offensive capabilities if it was true it simply shows how insecurity cyber wise russia can be interesting and off they snooze came at the time when this. topic is
11:20 am
highly debated here in russia on all levels earlier in february russia's state duma adopted the first trading of a draft law requiring all russia's i p's to ensure it can operate in the situation when russia's unplugged by foreign companies by foreign forces from the global network many refer to this document as internet isolation and there are critics of course saying that this is just the government's attempt to put some control on online life but have a russian authorities keep saying that this is a measure to protect the country's security. so i think this will bring huge damage to the u.s. so not only economic but also political damage but it is also bad for the special services sitting there gathering all the information about you but don't be afraid i suppose they will think a hundred times before doing something theoretically anything is possible so we should create such segments that would be dependent on anybody on wednesday
11:21 am
following the washington post article claiming that russia's darkest fear is and concerns over internet security may already be a reality we asked russia's president spokesperson demetrius cough to comment further on which you management of the world's internet is defacto carried out by several companies that potential threat led is to consider a sovereign internet it's not linked to the isolation or closure of a country it's connected to protection against illegal actions. a british police force has been found guilty of discrimination after it rejected an applicant who is a white heterosexual meal that's the decision reached by an employment tribunal in north west england cheshire police were in the middle of a diversity drawing when they turned down twenty five year old matthew furlong who 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
11:22 am
bisexual for instance there's a strong possibility i would be working for cheshire police now based on a lie well cheshire police say they are aware of the tribunals decision and have agreed to review their results matthews lawyer says it is the first discrimination case of its kind in the united kingdom we put the issue of for debates with political and social commentator morons are stephen morris from the initial democrats party what they're doing they are blatantly discriminating against people so any people have in the police is going to be gone you know how can you trust them 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 aids and prison simply are 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
11:23 am
so positive action is about redressing a balance about saying that when things that him oh no no no no positive is racially sort that let me off in order to discrimination no no no sorry steve stephen i'm sorry i'll correct you in a matter of fact and a matter of law having taken race discrimination cases all 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 race relations cases on the. do no employment role as a trade union. but i don't use racism to positive about it 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 faction that's just annoyed with a blatant racism and 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
11:24 am
society and absolutely you are right and the employment troubling 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 that i was in question he was saying if he was here well let's see i mean appeals and things happen but at the minute the filing we have is that but for the fact of his race and if it been bisexual he had been he had been more likely to have got a job i agree we cannot discriminate even against which is wrong because i mean i should heterosexual men it's all about freedom of choice if people do not want to go to 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. love is our lot for naught but our documentary crisis childhood a sobering look at filipino children being sold for a job a purposes is next this is r t international.
