another turbulent week for venezuela both russian and american resolutions to resolve the country's crisis fail at the u.n. security council while washington's economic pressure prompts caracas to transfer the european h.q. of its main oil firm to moscow. france sees a sixteenth we can straight of yellow vest on rest with police resorting to tear gas and water cannon. also this hour u.s. president donald trump and north korean leader kim jong un hold their second summit but fail to reach

a deal on denuclearization accusing each other of making unreasonable demands. you watching the weekly here on our to international from all of us here are th q. welcome to the program. this week saw fresh clashes on the border between venezuela and colombia as tensions over american aid deliveries intensify that as well and president nicolas maduro says the shipments could be carrying weapons and this ban them from entering the country and international efforts to end the crisis have stalled with the u.n. security council rejecting both russian and u.s. draft resolutions. by voting against this resolution some members of this council continue to shield woodrow and 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 finally we have

reached the culmination of the american workers created double standards show over venezuela washington and london have both again robs an entire nation out of billions of dollars in the same time 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 representatives spoke as well calling to stop interfering in the matters of his country. has to do with having a swell unsoldering at the end of an assault on people they behave like colonial east they are planning a plan this kind of peroration against it sort of right out of the same kind of. force at the same time they are just feeding out of money. 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. . meanwhile hundreds of activists have rallied in the spanish capital madrid in support of venezuelan president nicolas maduro demonstrators waved banners reading hands off as well and denounce what they see as an attempt by the united states to intervene in another country's internal affairs for desires who visit as well as

a u.n. report or in two thousand and seventeen says the u.s. is likely to escalate the situation. quite clear to me that the united states is waging war on international law now does that does not surprise me question is what will the. international crises in pristine before the. united states will the united states take the risk of a flagrant aggression against his will there is a danger of violence it should be the function of the united nations to prevent that. says washington has its sights set on venezuela's oil reserves the largest in the world u.s. sanctions have already blocked seven billion dollars worth of state on assets and to protect itself and as well ordered the state oil companies european h.q.

to move to moscow vice president dell c. rodriguez told us more about the decision. it all they don't they will in fact the americans are pursuing a predatory policy appropriating venezuela's assets and therefore violating the legitimate interests of our country they violate all existing international investment rules asked for europe where venezuela's accounts were frozen we have already begun to take specific legal steps we hired lawyers to protect our interests primarily with regard to our gold which is now illegally withheld by the bank of england we also began to take measures for venezuela's legal protection we're talking about the theft of the israel and assets which was organized by the united states and then israel has the right to protect its legitimate interests as for the transfer of the d.v.d.'s a office from europe to moscow this is connected with the expansion of the corporation of a russian company in the field of energy and the field of oil and gas together with the european office of p d b s a other branches of the company will also move to

moscow. the u.s. has also cancelled the visas of forty nine but as well representatives aligned with madeira it says that anyone who steals from the bed as well and people or undermines democracy is not welcome in the united states francisco domingo's head of latin american studies at london's middlesex university says the u.s. is pulling out all the stops to achieve its goal and that as well are. really the million. dollars from the pressure from the united states almost exclusively on the military. three years again and again through those shown. through may you name it got those words what is it going on be only seems the farther you go almost nothing. which can be organized regular forces.

it is essential to get these organized so that it's just concerned that confirms not only the way it's always. going to school something much more dramatic. for the sixteenth straight weekend paris and other french cities witnessed yellow vest anti-government marches on saturday clashes erupted at some of the demonstrations but police deploying tear gas and water cannon to disperse protesters.

according to official estimates are around forty thousand people took part in marches nationwide four thousand of them in paris on friday president emanuel again appealed for calm urging people to a frame from engaging and the kind of violence seen in previous weeks police made a number of arrests on saturday it all began as a grassroots rally over fuel prices as sense broadened into a wider anger at the president's handling of the economy. like i said they should at least meet one of our demands to show they are listening to us that we are not doing this for nothing the fuel prices are rising and they were supposed to be frozen we're all traces are increasing in the supermarkets to ten percent on products it's the opposite of what we want. we want them to give the purchasing power back to the people at the lower front on such

a crowd it was the grandest the citizens initiative refer and those are the two essential demands as long as the. it was that we believe. you me. this that people in difficult people who have a hard time smiling and honest i think i'm. just a masochist police have many different message and. this thursday us president donald trump and north korea's leader kim jong un along with their retinues and thousands of journalists descended on vietnam's couple of hundred for the two leaders second summit the much hyped meeting failed to produce any deal on north korea's denuclearization and the lifting of u.s. sanctions against pyongyang but trump and kim unable to agree on the terms despite little headway being made at the summit washington and pyongyang say the dialogue

will continue and as an apparent goodwill gesture the u.s. and south korea have decided to suspend their annual joint military exercises a pentagon statement says it's being done in an effort to reduce tension and advance denuclearization on the korean peninsula though the drills have in fact not been canceled completely but rather replaced by another set of exercises are to scale up and take stock of the second term kim summit the talks in hanoi between trump and kim were complete failure a blow out a bomb trump says the talks failed because of what he says were unreasonable demands they wanted the sanctions lifted. in their entirety and we couldn't do that but that is not how north korea remembers the meeting because the word what we proposed wasn't the removal of all sanctions but their partial removal we proposed to the united states articles of sanctions that impede the cereal and economy and the law of our people so with conflicting information about what actually took

place at the meeting between the two leaders we've now got the u.s. state department issuing an explanation of the explanation after the talks flopped in hanoi jumped on a plane to alaska it was certainly not singing the song of peace as he praised the troops america does not see conflict but if we are forced to defenders we will fight and we will win in an overwhelming fashion you are a powerful warning to the world to never strike american soil you are a warning that everybody knows about in nobody wants to play with you would think that with the utter train wreck that was the talks with pyongyang that donald trump would be cruising for a bruising when he got back to the united states however that doesn't seem to be the case the epic failure seems to have been met with pretty broad approval both democrats and republicans seemed rather chipper about it it's good that the president did not get in anything was

a little bit that he was proposing the north koreans walk away thinking you know they've got they want and gradually they will see they are sanctions regime begin to erode then they've won and frankly that would be unfortunate i was smart to expose the north korean delegation to the god of our economic prosperity that could be possible it's a good thing that he walked away rather than agreeing to something that was badly flawed democratic presidential candidate tossing gabbert seem to stand alone invoicing disappointment kim jong un has clearly stated that he is holding on to these nuclear weapons as his only deterrent against the united states coming. and waging a regime change war in north korea so well you know i'm deeply concerned about the fact that this summit yesterday ended without an agreement it's not surprising because of this policy this regime change war policy might pompei o laid out the washington consensus with rather sharp terminology america has

a responsibility to protect itself by pushing back against those evil nations and those evil leaders who intend to do real harm to the world yes much like george w. bush with his rhetoric about evil doers donald trump is not setting himself up to winning nobel peace prize any time soon but most of the political establishment that normally hates donald trump seems to think that that's a ok mop and artsy new york the experts we spoke to believe the trump administration's hawkish stance elsewhere and separating north korea's trust and whatever promises america is willing to make. it was not no deal versus bad deal it was a missed opportunity and the real question remains whether what was it that caused president or chairman kim for that matter to stand up and walk away hour and a half early i think there's a crisis in confidence between north korea in the us you know kim knows what's

going on in the world and he looks around and he sees unfortunately and depressingly the united states simply doesn't keep its word around the world trump is going to try to show success. he and that i think was one of the considerations in the discussions in. vietnam over over north korean missiles the reality is is a trump is looking to make a deal and to show international success and to so that he can have something to come back to and to offset the turmoil the inter political turmoil he's facing back home but if we've taken over isis in syria then the question remains what about the troops u.s. troops who are there in syria what will happen with them those are questions that remain unanswered pakistani officials say that an indian cross border anti terror

airstrike struck an uninhabited area more on the flared up tensions between the two neighbors and more after this short break. he's gone into a nihilistic. thinking. traveling across america that what makes america the charlottes in. the south america this is a point which i would. johnson we always are on the margins something. called gun culture is really important not on. we're starting last with is to begin to headed east into the swamp the going into the belly of the beast i think i want to leave now doesn't get in morgantown and then he may be completely

different in this to. what i see images and hear things what they're dorie. i see people who are afraid not see these young men and some women in these ways purposes and i see those as really scared. scared they lose it. all they have to hold on it is the color of their skin that's all they have going for themselves their white skin. welcome back india carried out an airstrike on what they say was a terror camp in pakistan increasing fears of a military confrontation between the two neighbors states.

south asian politics and security expert a lend of misrata sees a foreign hand in the conflict. he was saying at the moment he is the. low intensity conflict on the ground and this is going to go on well so what you need to remember here is that all of the pakistani prime minister region the indian captured pilot as ecclesiastes lives a moment of history at the high end that and that has to do with the prez he's personally coming from the united states saudi arabia and united to meet it's kind

of forced pakistan to kick the could use him there to do neither of these parties want to. go down the peace in pakistan the army has destroyed so that is a military establishment which is their whole war on india we have a nationalist. party who choose craving for some kind of content to sneak off from to give it to claxon under my liz in the forthcoming election. dollar terms former lawyer michael cohen failed to provide any evidence of collusion with russia when he testified before congress on wednesday members of congress accuse him of being a liar while cohen pulled now no punches either when talking about his ex boss. today i am here to told the truth about. he is a racist. is a con man. and he is a cheat mr trump knew of and directed the trump moscow negotiations throughout the

campaign and lied about it and i have never asked for nor would i. take part from president trump ladies and gentlemen how on earth is this witness credible he's a fake witness his presence here is a travesty and you have a history of lying over and over and over again that we were in charge of the truth i don't believe that michael cohen is capable of telling the difference he lied to congress through false statements in a written statement he lied to congress through his testimony it is able to fight his false statements by releasing him refuting his lies to the public with. cohen was a term confidant for more than a decade after his moment in the spotlight he will begin a three year prison sentence in the spring for tax and bank fraud as well as for lying to congress we discussed his testimony with former us republican congressman

michael patrick flanagan. as we call it in the united states won election season comes here we call. the silly season and in the silly season silly things happen this is a little early. something that you'd see in the silly season cohen is willing to use the word racist and criminal with a liar and anyone who's willing to speak in that absolute in that strongest terms in washington will always have an audience on one side or the other there was just an angry man who wanted to be chief of staff who didn't get to be chief of staff who was furious he couldn't make a ton of money off the trunk name after trump was elected president has decided after all that he needs to get even in a vicious new york stupid sort of way and so he's going to come to congress and lie some more he's been disbarred for lying that the state of new york despite of the polls his law license because he's a liar a man who took their promise who took that oath and then took another oath in front of congress and has lied constantly can't be trusted ever to tell the truth even if

he is telling the truth it will require cooperation substantiation and some backup and none of that was provided to. facebook has again made available the pages of the magic media group after a ten day suspension the group's c.e.o. and he said now and in the now running a colic struck back at their critics. back off facebook to turn our calls for freedom after selectively censoring us all for the thick speeches including the now were taken down for no reason other than pressure from pro-war think tanks and i'll leave the report from c.n.n. the messages are slick filled with graphics which grab grab. grab. left leaning americans getting news from social media individuals have been viewed of millions of times billions of times thank you with messages like this it's

pretty amazing that the same countries effect two years of screaming about alleged russian election meddling in twenty six and now a lot of. u.s. meddling and venezuela it was definitely your venezuela piece that got us in trouble i should censor you and would love that but not as much as the german marshall fund alliance for securing democracy and that free us government funded think tank that told c.n.n. to launch an investigation to get us censored from facebook in the first place who is the alliance for securing democracy and why would they care about us it's a hawkish project whose advisory council includes people like bill kristol the dude from project for a new american century that sold us the iraq war also mike morrell former acting cia director john podesta former chairman of hillary clinton's presidential campaign jake sullivan former national security adviser to vice president joe biden so in the alliance of neo cons and centrists and former intelligence officials funded by the u.s.

government threw a temper tantrum to get c.n.n. to encourage facebook to censor us that's creepy as maybe my poulton video and these are you gotta stop letting me speak my mind this c.n.n. report was deeply though showing up at the homes of people who work with us contacting contractors we work with to collect dirt classy stuff and their investigation it was a quick google not the pentagon paper if you don't believe i was to be didn't exposé three years ago revealing what was pretty much widely known and again google but c.n.n. still got us i mean as much as i'd like to say we did a ton of digging on this if you were to start googling these pages you could quickly sort of work it back to see so what did we do wrong they violate a rule did facebook say these pages violated a policy in short no did we hide our affiliation with russia they weren't necessarily really hiding there were sure that what you really are doing but they were kind of hard yeah what exactly did i say wrong

a lot of legitimate arguments. it sounds like you liked what you saw great viral videos great design. you know and the content was pretty critical of the u.s. government of us mainstream media but nothing that would be totally out of the ordinary necessarily it sounds like we have a great page and we're following the rules we did have to change our about section to reflect our parent company details it's a new policy apparently that suddenly became a rule after we were taken down without warning a verified page with over two point five billion views many outlets that received some kind of government funding and don't have info about it on their facebook pages let's call this what it is a mass hysteria in the u.s. of anything having to do with russia and exaggerated fear of russian influence by media that thinks a few facebook pages one trump the election again i wouldn't care if we were funded by japan this is the most carthy is through which time they didn't even bother

engaging with our content that donny guy even seem to like we've got editorial control over the videos we make and unlike c.n.n. we get to tell the truth about war and corporations because we don't rely on advertising dollars from weapons companies both even then have to mention their parent company eighty and t. who help the n.s.a.'s warrantless wiretapping of americans remember that look all media is funded by corporations or governments so we're going to talk about funding let's include all media in that conversation let's apply the same standards to everyone not just those affiliated with the country a bunch of neo cons eight we're looking at you facebook in the meantime we're just going to keep doing our thing thanks for the shout out c.n.n. . journalist martin summers believes facebook won't be doing itself any favors if it keeps cracking down on projects that ordinary users like. place bookies don't and

she's going to die. if it turns to the people who says i'm not so that's the dilemma they're in putting the. to do certain things with their audiences i'm putting them to pressure to do the opposite to make them on which side of the fence their own you know one of these big mic media companies are actually on discreetly about what they actually do. you know how they actually operate and what they allow what we don't allow and how that funded and so on i think this is to do with misleading information is a red herring it's nothing to do with the general thing about disinflation and i'm afraid that's the space that's developing you know the people won't accept genuine opinions which they they disagree with or just won't try and suppress them because they're involved in song called. that's our weekly run them for now i'll be back at the top of the hour with more thanks for telling him.

life expectancy in america is plummeting if you look at the chart it's shocking to look at almost every other country it's kind of inching up on one side of the chart and then as an outlier is the united states is the way over here and it's all crashing down from the drugs from having junk food having junk culture having junk politics and fake news it's all fake and fake doesn't sustain life and you see it in the numbers it's clear. they put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and you. want to be. actually going to be pro-choice this is what before three of them all can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of . course.
