maker boeing and mits for the first time that a system failure was a factor in the recent crash that claimed the lives of one hundred fifty seven people. this is our senior national coming to you live from our studio in the russian capital welcome to the program. all eyes are on the ecuadorian embassy in london amid suggestions that wiki leaks founder julian assange will be expelled from the compound he's been holed up inside since being granted asylum six years ago let's now go live to london and see who's outside the embassy for us and this is there much stirring where you are. yes well we can make sense that the ecuadorian embassy in london which is just my shoulder makes the sun in the next hour winds. they are using the corruption scandal as
8:02 am
a pretext now what this is referring to the are in a paper this was a series of phone calls and documents alleging that the ecuadorian president benefited from an offshore account in panama allegations that the president strongly denies and that wiki leaks denies publishing but president my right eye has responded quite harshly to beas allegations let's take a listen to what he said. yes yes because too many times mr sanchez violates the cream and we reach with him and his attorney he can freely talk he can freely express himself pretty cannot lie or hack private accounts or phone we keep leaks and gauges in espionage and hacking snooping on phones even getting photos of my bedroom what i eat and how my wife and daughters and friends dawns. now president merano also because the wiki leaks founder of repeatedly violating the terms of his asylum a song that she had quite
8:03 am
a rocky relationship with ecuadorian officials if you remember his internet was cut off he was denied visitors inside the embassy and so forth but at quick on the other hands haven't issued any official comments on the wiki leaks statement when it was first reported that could or in foreign ministry actually called this a rumor but we've been speaking to activists outside and the embassy and let's have their thoughts. is in trouble for. exposing the truth about crimes and wars the stray was involved in and is a journalist in a publisher and is free speech needs to be defended we hope that ecuador doesn't for its sake violate its own asylum in its own asylum it's against the law he is a political i say lee under the protection of international law it's against the law to be hunted down by back to the people who want it so what they're trying to do here to change is something illegal. in
8:04 am
a very underhanded way. now julian a son she's been holed up in the embassy since two thousand and twelve as the face of being extradited to the united states say the wiki leaks releasing classified u.s. documents now foreign secretary jeremy hunt has also spoken at a press conference and when asked about the situation he said this isn't just free to leave whenever he wants but oversee their officers of his arrest now we will be keeping a close eye on developments right here in london outside the ecuadorian embassy. and bringing us the latest from london thank you so much. commenting on the latest revelations former and present often occur so there's plenty of evidence of guilt. it's a huge case one of the most important serious corruption cases this in history proves we have a lot of proof it really really raises we have been secret out the phrase in secret
8:05 am
counting done by war we have to sit there count we know really. a lot of. days where the more you know the family for instance the government interim and ghost or in. a firm you two are. really me. find. other things but when least account will be open we will be able to see where does the money go the. most protected i repeat there is no choice. in the audience he described he has. this and she saw according to our constitution he cannot be decided to do the next day no order and they go remember most probably the most but that is right but we will see what. it will do. the
8:06 am
u.s. congress has passed a bill against american involvement in saudi arabia's war in yemen both chambers and they still call it war powers act to stop the u.s. from supporting riyadh without congressional approval but the motion has had to dodge some sneaky efforts to block it as it comes down of explains. fine print a few lines of text that can ruin you financially and allow facebook to know more about you than your family and friends ever will and keep the u.s. sponsoring a war that has led to the world's worst humanitarian crisis the us has passed a resolution to stop washington support for the saudi led complain in yemen for a very long time many have been desperately calling for this while the war hawks in congress have been equally desperate to prevent it from passing and the means that they've resorted to to derail any such initiative absolutely spectacular.
8:07 am
when house democrats put forward a resolution like this last time republicans added an amendment to it which condemned anti semitism this tragedy is merely one part of an upset in development that is a merged in recent years a resurgence of anti-semitism now what does anti semitism have to do with the war in yemen you are ask nothing but follow the hands the resolution passed in the house but was eventually refused to vote in the senate because it contained a bit irrelevant to the main subject yemen and that bit was yes the anti semitism amendment which house democrats didn't have the guts to argue to get rid of out of fear as to sounds in a phobic and it's not the only time when humans fate was decided by the small print . last year donald trump signed into law
8:08 am
a bill which he described like this through fires floods and freezing weather we will always stand with the american farmers the farm bill doubles the amount of farmers that they can borrow to expand and improve their farms you sure sounded pleased in this clip yet i have my suspicion that concerns for american farmers have little to do with it because this bill appeared on his table with an attachment blocking the vote on yemen and an identical thing happened the month before that. the house rules committee voted to advance the manage our wolves act that lifted the ban on hunting gray wolves and yes blocked a vote on the u.s. involvement in the yemeni war which is an absolute outrage if you ask me because look in these big puppy eyes how can you allow hunting a creature as beautiful as that but in all seriousness though congress finally
8:09 am
passing the human bill without any cabinets is a major milestone indeed but it is set to appear on donald trump's table next and just take a wild guess what's going to happen if you truly care about your many lives you'd support the saudi led effort to prevent yemen from turning into a puppet state of the corrupt british islamic republic of iran so yeah when you fix all the farmers' misery and manage all your wolves you always have mr president to rely on. riyadh intervened in yemen in two thousand and fifteen after the personality than president was ousted by who the rebels the bill passed by congress has yet to be approved by donald trump and he may veto that decision sara flounders the head of international action center doesn't think trump will sign. the resolution will very much likely go back again they'll be other votes and other efforts president trump has absolutely tied himself to the feudal monarchy. and to
8:10 am
the hollande and solomon so there is a certain level of international embarrassment at the salahi's failure to to crush the movement in yemen and that's what's really behind this vote while the vote was important and at least pushing back the total and overwhelming u.s. support for saudi arabia's criminal war against yemen it's a war that would not one day of it would be possible without u.s. support naval blockade air refueling for years it's been four years of disaster for the people of yemen. nato has agreed on a package of measures to step up its efforts in the black sea and counter russia in the region with more surveillance and exercises promised that's according to the alliance the secretary general speaking at nato seventieth anniversary celebrations . so we are stepping up their efforts. to see we
8:11 am
just agreed with the black sea region we just agreed to package with more surveillance exercises on all the issues which we. strongly believe or relevant for the black sea region and of course also the working with open georgia ukraine they don't has branded russia a global threat with young stoltenberg saying become trees it made the world a more dangerous place your secretary of state my pair expressed a similar attitude. pratima putin harbors dark dreams of imperialism he wants to split our alliance and weaken our democratic result still russian aggression russia's attacks on western democracies and in the context of russian efforts all around the world if russia did not exist it would be necessary to invent russia just to keep nato going that's the impression that you get from the summit and the anniversary celebrations that just took place in washington d.c.
8:12 am
what worries them seems to be russia's presence anywhere russian efforts all around the world whether that's efforts in ukraine. russians continued malign activity in syria talked about it in venezuela talked about what they did in the save as of em's they want them out in each case we are doing our best collectively to respond in the case of venezuela the united states says it's responses being prepared as well and what doesn't worry them is their own presence at russia's borders really why would russia be nervous about such moves nato is adamant to present itself as purely a defensive bloc quickly forgetting the havoc it regularly creates around the world .
8:13 am
but even with nato as number one enemy so clearly pronounced there is still kind of a lack of unity within the block the loudest retort seems to be coming from turkey we do still caution and so eager to join you to join nato his demand for turkey to abandon the deal has already been completed shares disrespect for terrorists over its. that's how nato second biggest members seem to respond to washington's ultimatum turkey must choose. those who want to remain a critical partner the most successful military alliance in the history of the world were doesn't want to risk the security of their partnership. by making reckless decisions that undermine our lines and even mr stoltenberg was somewhat
8:14 am
disconcerted by this us or them rhetoric it is a national decision. for each other to decide on determined capabilities actually from washington's point of view it's not just russia that nato member countries shouldn't be purchasing from china is also dangerous for the risks associated with the installation of chinese technology and systems related to security there is undoubtedly a risk and every sovereign nation that will make its own decision and then the united states will make its decision so it sounds like friends of the united states are free to trade with the united states alone beyond the u.s. not trading or blocking u.s. corporations from trading with other countries is very conscious and energetic account that's carried out by the u.s. by the state department and the treasury department prevent other countries from trading with those countries that have been targeted and we see this in regard to
8:15 am
iran we see sanctions against russia cuba venezuela north korea sanctions against china many many countries in the world are sanctioned to one degree or another in order to block certain kinds of trade and normal economic relationships what are considered today normal economic relationships in again the interest of a strategy of global domination we talked a while he was a former vice head of the zero s. c.e. assembly he says nato undermines global security. when we look on two days yes there are many dangerous situations but the most dangerous situation is cleared to by need to all. the illegal war against the formal federal if i were to go if you were slavia and also was in afghanistan in iraq in seal a guy in libya in mali need to reserve and it's destroying the boat and it

is killing people in the hundreds of solomons and their followers. who comes from no very very strange country in cold wars times should be more quiet when he talks about these things they had of us play maker boeing apologize for two deadly plane crashes admitting that system failure was a contributing factor or and that after a short break. you know world's big partners do things a lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the bats and shouting past each other it's time for critical

8:18 am
system failure was a factor in two recent crashes involving the company's new seven three seven max a model two disasters happened within six months of each other claiming the lives of three hundred and forty six people. with the release of the preliminary report of the key field in airlines flight three zero two accident investigation it's apparent that in both flights the maneuvering characteristics augmentation system known as m. cas activated in response to erroneous angle of attack information it's our responsibility to eliminate this risk we own it and we know how to do it i mean to you.
8:19 am
as a safety feature at the boeing seven three seven max features a new type of anti stalling device and the c.e.o. explained that both tragedies this reacted to incorrect data causing the noses of the planes to be forced down on the pilots were trying to gain altitude. we heard from commercial airplane pilot keith wolfinger he says that pilots should always be able to override commands from my plane's automated systems. the system repeatedly kicked in and the pilots were forced to fight against it that is a as you say a terrifying concept we should always be able to override any electronic system
8:20 am
software system protection system on the airplane that stability augmentation system was from the angle of tax answers the question that i would ask is why was that fee. adding that information to the system is there something wrong with the attack sensors the way they were installed the way they were connected to the aircraft systems was their manufacturing defect i think those sensors were not. manufactured by boeing but perhaps by a third party supplier but i think everybody is focusing on the software that caused the nose down motion what i think the initial question should be why is that giving bad information. france is trying to get tough on fake news with present manual micron pushing through a new law to battle misinformation however it seems some social media giants are confused over just how to implement it challenging pinsky reports. ahead of the

a lot of pressure twitter quickly to it after numerous discussions we have decided to allow an encouraging electoral put suspicion but such burns don't always end on a high note the social media platform is known for banning and suspending accounts often without reason including those it considers russian bought. even movie accounts have been suspended for no obvious reason take the pro-life film on planned off to raking in six million dollars at the box office on opening weekend it found its twitter account was banned though it was reinstated mysteriously around one hundred fifty thousand followers were dropped and it doesn't stop from the left to the right of politics twitter often acts as the judge and the jury so enraged to users that many are leaving the platform altogether the problems become

a speech to us forces which he posted online as well. are you a lot of. the time has come only use your weapons against those who have decided to fight those who have chosen bloodshed but those who lay down their arms must be spared it is your responsibility to protect the citizens institutions and interest of the capital. the country has been torn apart by warring factions since gadhafi was ousted eight years ago since then two rival governments have emerged one backed by the u.n. and based in tripoli and another in the eastern city of tobruk which is controlled by could be for how far his announcement comes days before a u.n. brokered peace conference which is supposed to pave the way for new elections. a joint statement has been issued by the u.s. france italy the u.k. and the u.a.e. they are calling on all sides to avoid military posturing and show restraint and they stress that there is no military solution to the libya conflict independent
