e.u. turns it down trees a maze request for a three month break that delay offering the twenty second of may as an absolute deadline with strings attached. president trump says he's ready to recognize israeli sovereignty over the occupied golan heights a disputed area captured from syria in one thousand and sixty seven. western powers questioned italy's willingness to join beijing's a belt and road infrastructure project calling it a tool for chinese in. broadcasting live from our studios moscow this is our international thomas certainly glad to

have you with us i think european union has rejected teresa mayes request for a three month delay to bragg's it after a summit in brussels the e.u. is offering a shorter postponement and only on the condition that the british parliament approves the unpopular withdrawal deal painstakingly negotiated by the british prime minister and the e.u. . and you can cross live now to daniel who is in berlin for us following the story it's been a long one for you. i know you've been sitting across all of the developments interest may just spoke bragg's it has been delayed but not for long could you tell us what happened at something. yeah and it's a good question indeed just how long for how long is a piece of string. at the end of the day and. on so they had the press conference. as long as it takes possibly forever was the boy that moved at the end of those negotiations it was

a very long night of chopping and changing plans draft document they surely though those twenty seven counts are leaders managed to come up with a decision a final offer to to reason may and the u.k. for its bricks plans for spurring that line article fifty until the twenty second of may conditional as you quite rightly said on to resume a passing up plan and parliament of course it's already been rejected twice by big majorities humiliating defeat for the conservative government and it's probably for that reason that the e.u. council added these conditions of the condition that you pass is that through if not they voted the option of a second extension up until the twelfth of april and i was the u.k. chooses to go for that second extension of the reason may fails to put our plan through parliament as is widely expected the u.k. will have to come up with some sort of plan was some sort of offer to continue that

process in which case they will have to agree to participate in the european parliamentary elections to get a if you like an indefinite extension but of course that would be rather silly rather pointless because the u.k. is of course leaving the european union as the reason may stated in her press conference now at the end of that meeting. certainly seemed in a very buoyant mood stating that the atmosphere in the meeting was better than expected that it was positive and that the discussions had been very constructive. how long is a long extension please. for the yes. on to the variant. i think to our poll. and there's still empty and that means the lot of spaces and

i. the reaction of disbelief on social media quite what the journalists the analysts was seeing at that press conference quite quite the subsea real scenes there and donald tusk at the end even managing to mix up the date stating initially the extension had been granted until the twelve of april before correcting it to the right date perhaps showing a sign of some signs of strain and tiredness at the end of such a long night and somebody showing signs of strain was of course the prime minister herself to resume a she came out to give a speech at the end of that conference as well and some questions from journalists really not giving much away there from her previous speech last night which was so badly slated by m.p.'s by pundits by journalists all over stating that the british public had voted for bricks that it was now her job on the job of the house of commons to deliver that and she would be getting on with that job.

i hope we can all agree we are now at the moment of decision and i will make every effort to ensure that we are able to leave with a deal to move our country forward well the deal of leaving with the option rather leaving with no deal of next week seems to be off the table for now to resume my house got her breathing space the first lever though with the four options the deal option of leaving with a deal should parliament accept. planned next week leaving with no deal is that both a reason and all the e.u. politically and economically for the u.k. and for the e.u. getting a longer extension as. long as it takes until the end or revoke article fifteen now getting a longer extension and revoking article fifty something to reserve my has said she will not consider effectively leaving the question of deal or no deal and in the

question in the event of a no deal scenario well it's anyone's guess as to what could happen so really she is now with a rock and a hard place between an e.u. council that has given her this all of branch this final chance a final package as you put it there will be no more offers and going back to a parliament the house of commons which is growing increasingly tired frustrated and hostile and angry towards her even our own m.p.'s turning against her some calling for her resignation even she will have to put that. to vote next next week should that fail she then has two weeks to decide what to do in that time and that's going to be the crucial time period for us to see where things are going to go with bricks and for the u.k. so someone else moves today that were obviously expected the extension with conditions attached what could happen next week of course it's anybody's guess so the saga assuming you does continue right i don't know harkins is in berlin for us

following the story and we know that it's not over yet so you've got some more work to have to be a star to say that made. thanks for it. president trump has weighed in on a fifty two year dispute between israel and syria saying the u.s. is ready to recognize the occupied golan heights as part of israel turkey has condemned that announcement accusing the u.s. of supporting israel's so-called occupation policy or today's market has more. trump support for israel has taken some new heights and that would be the golan heights and it now seems that despite the u.n. and syria and others recognizing this territory as belonging to syria donald trump wants it to be recognized as part of israel let's take a listen to what he tweeted out of the fifty two year time for the united states to fully recognize israel so vincy over the golan heights which is of critical strategic and security importance the state of israel and regional stability now

this announcement on twitter came as mike pompei o the top diplomat of the united states secretary of state was meeting with the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu he expressed a huge amount of gratitude for this gift of recognizing golan heights. and it's time when the run cease to syria as a platform to destroy israel trump boldly recognize israel is sovereignty in the golan heights thank you president trump now in its annual human rights report the usa described palestinian territories not as israeli occupied but rather as israeli controlled and we recently saw mike pump a zero take the unprecedented move as u.s. secretary of state and actually visit the western wall in jerusalem now at this point the world is well aware that benjamin netanyahu is facing an election that will determine whether or not he remains the prime minister of israel and some have

interpreted donald trump's moves as essential trying to help netanyahu showing u.s. support for netanyahu taking unprecedented steps in pro israeli stances by the united states as a whole and people wonder if this could lead to an escalation in the region. and journalist rick sterling who is a member of the serious elderly movement says trump's move could send shock waves across the middle east. what this decision in this book from the trumpet ministration is going to do is instead of increasing regional stability it's going to undermine it it's going to prolong the conflict in syria it's going to teach stabilize the region rather then. then then hoping it basically seems to do take moves that or in line with what benjamin netanyahu wants and in the casino mogul show that enables that war so this is just a continuation where they move the u.s. embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem where they have as the u.s.

to stop funding of the united nations relief works agency where the united states would through unilaterally from the iran agreement and this is continuing a very dangerous trend under not undermining international law and. agreements. the chinese president is in italy to discuss rome's participation in the belt and road initiative it is an ambitious trillion dollar infrastructure project spanning three continents and italy's a wall has drawn criticism from western allies and his many a question over reports the bad boy or the godfather of euro skepticism it's a yes once again taxing relations with the e.u. with rome now pushing to join china's rodin ballot initiative has reportedly setting off alarm bells and process and getting back sap in washington to. italy's a major global economy in great investment destination no need for italian

government to lend legitimacy to china's infrastructure vanity project. and dosing boat initiative lends legitimacy to china's predatory approach to investments a moving no benefits the italian people it's really could become the first member of the so-called group of seven the most powerful nations to join china some bushes plan to boost connectivity between asia europe and africa. local businesses will likely view the project as a positive with major ports being referred to an investment into the millions of dollars it's got the italian press already speculating over a once forgotten port becoming trying as the gateway to europe the pool to treat us

to is returning to the logistical world for europe that had for the old austria-hungary an empire business opportunity as the site of the italian prime minister will be forced to explain his decision. of the belt and rolled memorandum between italy and china is primarily economic does not good our national interests at risk and it is on the same page as european strategy his cabinet alcoves those words saying that the deal would be non-binding and would just represents the initial framework everything to come their european partners who have labeled as beijing a systemic rival especially allies on the other side of the atlantic it's called one bill one road it's global and if you look at the spots where there are who are there there are engaging in you see some geo political and military aspects we will not allow china to develop its so-called one belt one road strategy even trying as cutesy promos have been helped change americans' minds next term.

just trying to explain. why breaking barry clementi just seventeen and. after it's the the chinese leader is planning his next stop in paris but here the expectations of talks going well are not as promising italian historian pollo bernardine believes rome has plenty to gain from strengthening its ties with china while i think peter is going to achieve a lot i mean the new golden initiatives and major initiative affect the large part that we are going to follow me i mean that we need to have a strong go import export relation with china local all the major states and you were happy about that but i think. you know and you know. in the relations that itself we are stocking or now on the well now on the mission we have all

witnessed the chinese but of those in need and i think it's a positive presence and i think that. you and the united states last accepted he didn't feel that the major conklin the war and mosque. itself saying things were. thinking too mobster on the on the walk to. the center got them up and say mourners after a short break starting. what

politicians do you suppose is going to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and she. want to be. considered to be close this is what the three of them will be good. interested always in the water.

now american men are apparently less convinced now that sexual harassment in the workplace is such a big issue as compared to two thousand and seventeen when the me too movement started a survey by gallup found that fifty three percent of men see workplace harassment as a problem that is down from sixty six percent when the me too movement exploded after a series of sexual assault allegations against powerful men however it does appear people today are more aware of the issue gallup suggested that the way the story has been covered in the media may have altered men's out of toots. during that time a torrent of sexual misconduct allegations have been leveled against well known men and widely covered in the media this preponderance of news coverage may have put men on the defensive we asked our guests whether they think the me too movement is proving helpful or has been politically hi jack. what they said in their in their

study was simply that there is a discrepancy between men who are democratic as well as men who are republican and it seems as though that drop is more heavy leaning towards the republican man maybe it has something to do with the hearing on brett kavanaugh i think that a lot of men right now are a little concerned that this situation could happen to them and it's got the woman deep in the cavanagh hearings brought to light how false accusations going back years and years that have zero evidence can actually be used against someone later in their career and i think we've seen so many false accusations that many americans especially constitution loving americans fear rightly so perhaps that due process could be undermined if it's a if it's a she said it and we have to believe it scenario dating back to when women first

entered the workplace the forty two fifty s. and sixty's the seventy's there have been women who have not said a word why because the culture and the temperature in the climate was never an acceptable place and time for them to present their issues and so the old boys club or old boys network was allowed to function in this in this way were four million were able to do what they wanted to do and women weren't respected in the workplace and they were able to take advantage of women the rules have changed and we're not playing that game anymore and that's what's happening men are getting caught and they want to go back to hell things used to be and so they don't want to acknowledge the fact that. sexual harassment is still a very pervasive issue and since twenty seventeen you know i hear it's there when it is our actually the gross platitudes that your guest is using i take i take real exception with categorizing our castigating men as

a one whole massive violent group while casting women as some sort of one whole massive group of victims that is just not true there is a great area that you're not at all where idea really how irrational are things placement if we're going to have if we're going to have a rational conversation you have not read me we're having a contract i'm good or bad and yes some women have made false and yes some because you were going on a yes some women have made false accusations it is an absolute provable fact and so until you're ready to have a conversation like that we're going to be caught up in all the same hypocrisy that many on this side of the me to the movement that has become so radicalized that they think all men are evil and all women are victims my life experience has taught me that when you speak in black and white like that you make a big mistake and it's been it's bigotry frankly to talk that way about men or about what. after weeks of intensive fighting us back to kurdish forces say that they have taken control of islamic states

a final piece of territory in syria. the syrian democratic forces encircled the village of glues in eastern syria earlier in the year and in recent weeks launched a final push to drive out the ice of fighters around thirty seven thousand civilians have reportedly fled the area since early in january. despite i suppose apparent defeat the remaining terrorists are still putting up a fine some of the group's members said to be in hiding along the euphrates river the u.s. president has already declared victory and now for the first time but i guess you have comments. it was only a matter of thailand before isis's lost on klav stronghold was destroyed liberated and it has happened isis has been cleansed from the village of but it's lost costal in syria has crumbled say some others say that that isn't true

and that they're still fighting but what the heck trump says he was on. so what happens is this is all isis now on the bottom that's as of today this is isis there's none the caliphate is gone as of tonight. well what can you say mission accomplished again the strangest thing they keep beating isis destroying its last stronghold again and again and again the coalition to defeat isis has liberated very close to one hundred percent of the territory we're doing a great job with us as we have just absolutely decimated isis we have won against isis we've beaten them and we've beaten him badly the isis caliphate. has been

decimated in another short period of time like hours you'll be hearing hours and days you'll be hearing about the caliphate it will one hundred percent defeated so is this it or are we going to see another epic final battle between the forces of good and isis no one seems to know my gut feeling having been in iraq in syria for so long seen what i've seen of isis is no not even close out in the desert there and holds hiding underground there in baghdad in damascus leaking their wounds but that's just my opinion and a whole lot of other reporters and experts for now though if we believe that the forces of good have finally won what is next in question that america's allies such as france really want a non-citizen. mrs polly france's defense minister went to the us to get answers to

various questions if by chance the american military presence would be maintained what would be the contours of its presence what would the mission be we do not have these answers yet it is on the basis of information that we don't have yet that president macron will determine the possibility of a french contribution on top of everything else the murderers and maniacs that made up isis even if the organization is dead those individuals are not they've apparently gone back to their roots back where they began carpet bombed tens of thousands of civilians dead in the crossfire the isis zealots have apparently gone back to basics extortionists assassins thugs and guns for hire. isis is using the same fourteen style of most threatening people to

pay by sending a message by envelope pay or die they threaten businessmen doctors etc congratulations. you've won you've beaten i says again and bet now on how long do you think it'll be before trouble declares his next last victory over. again he always wants to be he doesn't have. a very good relation with the troof you know he likes to extend the life of the thought he wants he always wants to compare himself with barack obama that he was the one. very short but it hasn't finished and. this is not finished finished. in iraq also. about his reelection. more than ninety people have drowned after

a ferry sank in the river in the iraqi city of mosul most of the victims were women and children according to the iraqi interior ministry the ferry was heading towards a tourist island to celebrate the persian new year fifty five survivors have been pulled from the water and the search is still ongoing because of the tragedy is unclear but the vessel is believed to have been severely overcrowded. what you are to international more news. than the wealthy in america decided playing anymore we're going to just grab as much as we can of the cash out there in the system and put it off shore and that's why there's now twenty two trillion off shore and so there you credit in the system the central bank instead of punishing the banks just flooded the system with more. the fia by and then those who are the paranoid have yachts versus the have nots

decided you know we're going to put that more offshore so they just keep trying to and shipping it off shore and it's completely bypassing the economy and so the economy is getting more starved for credit and the people are getting more rest but playing the numbers mean something they've matter to us with over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime that we did. eighty five percent of global wealth you long to be ultra rich eight point six percent world market rose thirty percent some with four hundred to five hundred three for church at first second and fifth one rover a all you industrial park but don't let the numbers over. the only number you need to remember one one business you know board commit one and only whom. is your officer. to get up off the ground to serve begin to pay him down to be

grown man mislead essentially. really the joy out of his group. the obvious or did they kind of lunge for the weapon once missed and then when it happened on tree swung at constitutions didn't hit them i never saw any contact between the two any kind went back to where they were so the masters is gonna need to turn tree. paddy. he shouted to get up on soldiers that i. got when i got close and that was on bush honestly i'm not going to another good one it wasn't. a novice and it was

just some we did not. know but just making sure there are some motionless on his out by the fact that it. doesn't. one of those allusions to halt this emotional. stuff. just. pushed. down the line political. bullshit don't let on the left it's. just not them so they are going to second guess how i first met him and how much you know comedic passage. was and i'm sure it was never come close to the next. question if you sent us out nothing many matter and they said.

i. i. owe a visit to mom it goes quite a lot of trouble after. the foreigners had left he and his large family had to move to the brother's house to get away from the neighbors' questions. doesn't want anyone to know why the journalist had come to film but appalled by that of self.

she. didn't.
