venezuela moves to protect its ordering the states or oil companies european. made sure. the country. it is very clear was going on. in order to. undermine. creates tension situations that might trigger. an explosion. to justify military. prime minister. after

his former attorney general say she was pressured to corruption case. also ahead on the program distaste. for using the image of. targets. which you are. which is encouraging. women. to. just. follow even the evening right here in moscow on this the first day of march welcome to international our top story the president of crisis stricken venice with us ordered the european headquarters of the country state oil company to relocate to. moscow the concern is over securing national assets after

key figures in europe sided with the u.s. in blocking self-proclaimed interim leader one blind to who they want to run a major oil exporter other news briefing with the russian foreign minister the venice will and vice president said her country does not trust u.s. allies in europe. the relocation of p.d. b.s.t. from europe all say there's been a part of our plans in terms of deepening relations with russian companies like gross math and gas prom europe has not given us enough for sure and says that it will respect our assets look at the bank of england which is we holding venezuelan gold there has been an arm the robbery. and we want to ensure our relationship with russia. right is reason and as well as vice president has become yet another one in a series of meetings between high ranking officials from russia and this like an american country here in the russian capital meetings to show solidarity and ensure

support venezuela has world's largest oil reserves and this is a very huge company of tourists but it is right now one to have these sanctions from their west had to be more precise seven billion dollar is currently in assets blocked by the u.s. sanctions foreign minister lavrov has said today that cynical pain aimed at overthrowing the treatment of color to use of venezuela using women's rights including one of the military intervention in his throat says social knowing the approach of the current us administration i wouldn't be surprised if it takes action that violates any reasonable standards of international law especially when the u.s. special envoy in venezuela at the u.n. elliot abrams makes no secret that his functions don't include looking for the peaceful settlement he only creates tensions and situations that might trigger as the u.s. wants an explosion and bloodbath in venezuela to justify military interference

needless to say a lot has been said about the possibility of military intervention of course that's especially after america's president don't know trump is claiming that all the options are on the table i mean in eluding military operation a thorough when i'm on your way to keep it there is a concerted effort there are six. to justify an international intervention in venezuela had by do you hear us and their regime change doctrine this is nothing new we've seen these tactics and see where and now the countries that the person in charge of action against venice while is known for their is the first to back to it and it taps into foreign states and that's mr abrams it is very clear was going on the seeking to arm terrorist groups and rebels in order to destabilize in undermine our peace. it's no coincidence that we had venezuela is not the only goals cuba nicaragua on the horizon and if the us doesn't like someone else tomorrow if they say the election results in any country don't meet democratic standards. and

answering question as well as the vice president has added also that she believes venezuela will not become second syria because the people of venezuela and the country's army are as united as never before in fighting for their future and peace. well the u.n. security council is convened on thursday to discuss the crisis in venice we are russia and the us proposed their draft resolutions both were rejected. by voting against this resolution some members of this council continue to shield his cronies and prolong the suffering of the venezuelan people the time for a peaceful transition to democracy is now the can use them with us and finally we have reached the culmination of the american workers treated double standards show

over venezuela washington and london have both again robbed an entire nation of billions of dollars and at the same time are pushing them to accept a pittance due to regime change as they say you first of all create great humanitarian problems and then you call upon the whole world to solve them we look forward to genuinely free and fair elections. and to a government that reflects the will and aspirations of the venezuelan people. you have to do is vote is an excellent example of one of the veto rule is necessary for protecting the peace and people's right to determine their future both the russian and the u.s. resolutions didn't pass the voting in the un security council the russian one got less votes in favor that against four in favor and seven against the us draft was vetoed by russia and china the russian ambassador said that if the u.s. resolution had passed it would be the first case in history that the united nations security council deposed a legitimate leader and imposed another one to a sovereign country the venezuelan representative spoke as well calling to stop

interfering into the matters of his country the power to this will has to do with having a swell on slaughtering at the end of an assault on people they behave like colonial east they are planning a clandestine operation against it it's what i write out the same kind of took it up to force at the same time they are just feeding out of money you see something outrageous indeed so the diplomatic community in the crossroads again the u.n. as thieves members who spoke after the voting called it to all of their colleagues to put their differences aside to resolve the venezuelan crisis reporting in new york treated each other as r.t. i also got the chance today to speak to former un human rights committee secretary alfred the zionists who was also the first u.n. repertoire to visit venice will he thinks the u.s. is waging war on international. perforations have been already since years and the southern command has had the plans already

prepared but the question is what will the. international price and prestige before the united states will the united states take the risk of a flagrant aggression against them as well as well the united states did so in two thousand and three when the coalition of the willing. bombarded iraq a war which. kofi annan on repeated occasions declared to have been an illegal war so the united states if. i would especially with a president like trump is capable of doing there is a danger of violence and it should be the function of the united nations to prevent that on the other hand i listened last night to the debate in the security council

on venezuela which i consider to be so realistic i mean it is quite clear to me that the united states is waging war on international law now that trump does that does not surprise me. just want to bring this to your attention as well a new poll is suggesting that the global approval rating of the u.s. leadership has fallen behind china or russian's position has increased significantly as well let's take a look at the figures washington's approval rating is dropping to thirty one percent in this gallup survey china has leapt ahead to thirty four percent russia's rating has risen notably as we said it is now just one percentage point behind the u.s. a leading member of china you care innovation expert group told us he believes u.s. intervention his policies are to blame for the fall interest. you ass is already becoming one the more weak because you start to lose so many wars and political war

or. trade war so basically people lose lose confidence towards us because it expects the china to actually be there weren't and to use some of the. us so this way i see. the world to really want to see. there are actually. two repository of what you can act . it's i think of. europe. will be easier china and russia who. are of all us you may be next. for lead her yeah so i've seen. good opportunities out there and to be china russia we are probably you more you can point to the rule of. the

pressures on canadian prime minister federal elections are just months away out of this process or to me but just introduced it's facing growing calls to quit over a corruption scandal engulfing his government let's go through what we know here a former justice. mr attorney general says she was pushed not to prosecute one of the country's biggest engineering and construction firms which is accused of large scale bribery in an emotional testimony to the justice committee jody wilson raybold said the pressure on her included veiled threats if she went ahead with prosecuting s. and c. laughlin. i experienced a consistent and sustained effort by many people within the government to seek to politically interfere in an inappropriate effort to secure a deferred prosecution agreement with s. and c. level and the prime minister asked me to help out to find a solution here for s n c but who all they will accompany is one of the world's

largest engineering and construction firms and twenty fifteen it was charged with bribery and fraud over the payment of nearly one hundred million dollars in kick bucks to libyan officials the dealings allegedly involved family members all former leader moammar gadhafi they were meant to secure come trucks in the lucrative irrigation project mr trudeau denies any inappropriate behavior insisting he was just trying to save jobs. i and my staff always acted appropriately and professionally we of course had discussions about the potential loss of nine thousand jobs in communities across the country including the possible impact on pensions well speaking of jobs the whistleblowing former justice minister resigned over the a furrow prime minister trudeau's principal secretary also left his position and made reports that more officials are ready to quit the administration for the kill unless i was something of bruno explains why the case could cost trudeau his chop.

it shows that the politics and interests do mix in canada as well as other places and this is the problem it's the image that the prime minister has built around himself for some people call it the brand of a feminist alter a liberal ultra legal transparent leader who is completely tripping over his own ideals in ten months there will be an election in canada so no matter where this goes constitutional crisis the political crisis there will be a problem in the election and just into those leadership is definitely in question now the idea was that if since eleven and we face prosecution. it might have to move headquarters away from canada so and also.

since eleven is in writing where trudeau is directly involved the more writings you win the more chances you haven't been in an election it must have been very important for trudeau to have taken such really. amateur measures and he thought he could he could pressure his justice minister. ok to a developing story now. an indian fighter pilot who was captured by pakistan after his jet was shot done has been hunted over to the indian high commission in pakistan he is expected across the border and the moment of this convoy in fact transporting the pilot was seen earlier coming up to the pakistan indian border the pakistani prime minister described the move as a peace gesture as tensions between the two nuclear countries escalated in recent weeks well let's go live now to the drama he is that near the

pakistani indian border forest. the hope is that this will restore some some semblance of come in this region will it. this is a question. just give us the latest on the border we are what's happening there. well they had to go it was certainly was expected to happen at least for the outback but it is not happening the reason being wall that wanted to do it in a public ceremony usually a public ceremony happens every day at the border book i'm pleased to have. been led to flex that's a sort of summary which happens every day but today you have considered it. well defended being. kept your child is being held little in the in the public sort of

money with five years on people who would have been clipping so because of these. website at least in birth since the decision has already been made by the principal focus on it just simply not for five when these when three hundred or will be the same there is a little bit deliver is because all of what india has. been sending routine. and learning certainly at the border because of which there is a delay but given you the government you had in part that that this is just general on the part of this one of the time when war can please what would you all want to starting you're going to war because the incursions on the ball sites and pakistan had it on the indian side of the border in the just. many indian soldiers were killed many most were destroyed and pakistan also had also shot don't do it again fighter jets so and that going to mean what it means when brought this on or find their pocket so decided to give

a piece of. all right we seem to have just lost connection there with a journalist's job of the drama in la or he was just explaining that we are awaiting the captured indian a fighter pilot said to be hundred box from pakistan over the border to india will be keeping a close eye all not throughout the day ok time for a short break here on r.t. international with us.

much was expected from the noise summit there may have been goodwill on both sides but in the end neither the united states nor north korea could agree on the path forward the two sides failed to reach a common understanding of what their desired endgame for denuclearization actually . join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. welcome back to the program a shooting range in the u.k. being branded distasteful for allowing pictures of bride shamima begum to be used

as target practice the teenager earned notoriety after an interview in which she showed no remorse or indeed regrets about fleeing to join the terrorist group in syria one of her images used that the range covered in bullet holes has been widely shared online reactions been mixed. in a society where hate and violence against muslims particularly muslim women is most prevalent on the rise it's deeply concerning that people requested an image of a real person as a shooting target it's clearly wrong to use photos of people as targets in a shooting they should stop why you're so worried about a traitor they're just plain again with her poster her i says friends tossed three real human hands of beheaded victims like a football and she wasn't fazed remember that shamima beggar was born in britain but took her sister's purse border and fled to syria to join isel when she

was fifteen she knows say she'd like to return to the u.k. but britain's move to revoke her citizenship here is why the shooting range according to fit and chose to our bedrooms image to their roster the targets provide some fantastic reactions and conversations and allow people to have some lighthearted fun and bring out the inner child in us all the targets we provide do not necessarily always reflect our personal opinions after watching footage of big i'm being interviewed and the lack of remorse and empathy she shows we chose to go ahead and run the targets but is such an act appropriate we asked our guests. issue is how it's going to actually impacts on muslims in this country and muslim women in particular and the fact that we need to recognize that she whether we like it or not because she is a muslim woman she is going to inevitably represent something that the people who are going to range people are saying this is something that is going to be

targeting muslim women in the second what is more what is more offensive to muslim women the fact that should be pagans picture was i think shooting bags almost nobody is going to go to all the fact that somebody is appearing on international television to say that should mean begum is a vet present state of muslim women in britain that is not what i said that is a caricature of precisely what i've actually precisely what you said that night if you have knowledge of the need to actually think about why do you allow me to finish why don't you allow me to finish what i'm talking about plane that is being made is that a racist environment this is a racist environment which you are a part of which is encouraging the targeting of muslim women she is a terrorist and their law abiding citizens and frankly you should take that back you should apologize to muslim women in this country for suggesting that she is like them this is a process of desensitization of children from a very early age and this is problematic because it is saying that it's ok to shoot

and kill women in her job because that's exactly what is being suggested in this to call it harmless fun i think it's important that we recover the child advocates on the t.v. channels that we should take military action to get the child but it's u.k. who after all is an innocent victim she can take a hike i don't care about. the release idea if she also says it's not true and b. so fed was there to reason that there. is a terrorist threat as an irish group can be placed in a way that would be taken away but for a white person that would not be an option. their citizenship would be taken away he said oh no other than the law and recognize that there's a structure outside all racism that exists through everything that you are actually say citizens of what you would define i think should mean i would i say to you your bring her back defending. and try her and that's the issue there is an environment of hate that exists i think what we have to think first of all who all the real

victims here should be the page he's a terrorist she supported a brutal terrorist regime the disgraceful idea in the media that we should be seeing her as the fake said i think it's sad and pathetic that it would not be the role of the british state to tell british people what they can and call they just cause one or two people are offended by if we lived our lives bombing everything that some one person found offensive nothing would exist in the world thank god i live in a country where we're never going to do that. american news network c.n.n. is being accused of stocking the odds against veteran politician and presidential hopeful once again bernie sanders of a televised q. and a where some of the audience were suspiciously very clued up on politics.

how could a voter like me. feel confident in your ability to represent the party especially given that your response to sexual harassment allegations during your campaign is that you were quote a little bit busy running around the country trying to make the case to be elected as president. good evening. there's a lot of misinformation regarding your plan for universal health care would you please provide a brief overview of your plan and how it differs from that of other candidates.

if you become president. will you support efforts to offer high quality optional publicly funded preschool for all americans . i'm a student at the george washington university. which tells impressive seventy three thousand sticker costs as president how will you work to alleviate this issue. this is a law in a long running to caesar than the u.s. political system untruths are used to try to undermine opposing parties and no notion of opposing parties is just fundamentally destroying every country people just attacking each other from opposing sides that really decides what's really

true is that this might be showing a symptom of something that it just has to do it out of the cereal dialogue and progress through competition or progress through conflicts so i think that c.n.n. has their systemic issues just because again they have to have yours which is sort of sad that i find that that to be par for the course with that our media operates is hard to find media that is doesn't have an agenda i would not be surprised if c.n.n. wanted to have a certain kind of public experience of this political figure. a former israeli domestic. intil chief is the guest on today's sophie and co and he doesn't hold back today with r.t. international it's next.

after the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going to do next the pope the ball 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 the fresh perspective i'm used to surprising people by salt or not if you think. i'm going to talk about football narvi or else you can think i was going to go. by the way ways of the flying here. in the need. for my dough for one hour sixteen level months on a city denoted. by the.

just far and up dollar our former isis fighters and no boarding a philippine naval ship. but not for me ned sandeen ninety dollars. just aren't up to those still don't know what's waiting for them. their faces will . be near their family electricians. but how can i get out of. the man i'm nobody. and the. most people think to stand out in this business you need to be the first one on top of the story or the

person with the loudest voice or the biggest raid in truth to stand out of the booze business you just need as the right questions and demand the right answer. questions there. in our last program with. the palestinian perspective.

so are the. today i ask. the former had israel's domestic security service. the result of a palestine is hosting israel's position on the international stage and. threatening jewish communities all over the world with palestinian. and israeli voters a. real progress towards peace will any israeli politician be bold enough to start a decades of hatred and contention before they blow up once again. former head of israel's scene backed security service on commander in chief. welcome to the show it is great to have you with us admiral.
