the. first meeting between. north korea. projected from space. to the world this is your r.t. international my name's you know hello welcome. after a two year investigation almost nonstop media coverage of the so named russia gates the heavily redacted muller report has finally sorted out the documentary feels
9:02 am
there was no cooperation between. any american with russians in the twenty sixteen presidential election. the special counsel's report states that his quote investigation did not establish that members of the trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the russian government in its election interference activities but it doesn't let donald trump off the hook in the eyes of democrats on the media the focus has now shifted on the section of the report that investigates possible obstructions to the investigation our senior correspondent goes d. of has been running through it all. two years america waited for this hoped and prayed it would unmake trump all exonerate him that the new report would and this two year long drama about collusion hacking
9:03 am
and conspiracy people would get closure what america got was this page off the redacted page censored into any legibility obviously some of this stuff could pass for more than ott and as with odds everyone interprets this report how they want and they're having a good day i'm having a good day q who's called. no collusion no obstruction even it is incomplete for me to work with him only report outlines disturbing evidence. president's trip in gaijin obstruction of justice and those of his kind of confused so was mueller trump may have been cleared of collusion but obstruction of justice. in the. mueller writes that it's so complicated he couldn't decide whether trump tried to
9:04 am
obstruct justice or not the guilty no innocent the conclusion the congress may apply the obstruction laws to the president's corrupt exercise of the powers of office accords with our constitutional system of checks and balances and the principle that no person is above the law specifically mueller found eleven instances where trump potentially tried to obstruct justice and democrats have jumped on it the miller report brings a disturbing picture of a president who has been weaving new web of deceit lies and improper behavior and acting as if the law doesn't apply to him it's a very interesting a very disturbing read that does not exonerate this president the whole repercussions for the country of having a president who lies to the country who misleads the country you urges others to do so a president to. to my reading of. the report almost certainly obstructed justice certainly intended and attempted to obstruct justice and if true
9:05 am
this alleged trumped tantrum is only making it so much sweeter. the president slumped back in his chair and said oh my god this is terrible this is the end of my presidency i'm. you know this report has trump politically the democrats smell blood they have trumped up and like blood hounds still mercilessly dogged him for obstruction and anyone that gets in the way the messenger included they have ministration has a new face and any messenger and one with a lot more stature he's the country's attorney general he said half a dozen times no collision occlusion no lawyer no legal presentation presenting its conclusion six times the attorney general getting out there and getting his narrative his take on it as vigorously as possible because attorney general barr wants to represent our trouble i think he should resign they are calling for bud to
9:06 am
resign a traitor a sellout they scream and they want mueller himself the darling just a few months ago to be hauled before congress the mueller report and did nothing those who hated trump hated him more and vice versa if anything this report is going to america and americans further apart but they go to tell you at least ninety of fracture has a happy. yet lots of reaction as could be expected to the release of the report here's some of the views that guests experts alike shared about the two years in the making of the report. they still can't get to a point where the president did with russia and in fact they said quite categorically it did not happen so then why would the president knowing he is innocent obs struct dead as a matter of pure politics as
9:07 am
a sop to the democrats who are on the commission twenty five attorneys all of them democrats most of them hillary supporters a large number of them are hillary donors and we had to do something in the report to make them happy why did this investigation even begin i mean was there wrongdoing there was there you know falsification of documents to get pfizer warrants there's a lot of embarrassment here we're talking about millions upon millions of dollars of taxpayer dollars of time wasted if things happened for something that legitimately had no basis in fact and any evidence that might have been presented to start this smaller investigation all last night we had chuck schumer saying that well how dare william barr you know come out and speak before we get the report what kind of report would this be after that we're going to start hearing about how the redactions are the way a way to hide the real truth and it's really never going to end we're going to continue to see one thing after another with trump but they went immediately from russia collusion to trump taxes trying financial statements and william bars
9:08 am
obstruction so i mean the arguments haven't stopped yet they're not going to stop but we do have what seems to be a very conclusive case of absolutely no collusion most of the attorneys i talked to at the beginning of this said when they start investigations like this they always find something on their target it came back that he was squeaky clean and i think that turns the conversation from what's inside of this investigation to what prompted what was the impetus who paid for this investigation the rule of the united states the constitutional law if you're innocent until proven guilty that right actually was not given our president he was absolutely considered guilty by much of the leftist regressive media in the united states and so i don't know exactly how they're going to explain. the more time the democrats do spend on this the more they're damaging their own party going into elections. libya is a un backed government has ended cooperation with france accusing the country of
9:09 am
supporting rebel forces. all relations between the interior ministry and the french side have been halted because of the french government support of the criminal hafta. general after is libya's military strongman a commander of the national army a fortnight ago or so he ordered his forces to advance on the un by government of national accord on the offensive comes amidst un plans to facilitate a general election which was initially meant to happen last year libya is currently split with the united nations recognized in tripoli as the battle in the west on the rival government in to brooke in the east allotted to the militant groups active right across the country yeah a lot to get through let's go live to the charlotte dubin ski who is in part of charlotte front it's the proceed with libya very much in focus today.
9:10 am
yes that's why we've got the u.n. backed government in tripoli making some pretty stark allegations against the french government saying they're actually supporting the all the sides that france has categorically denied that today with an official presidential spokesperson saying no france recognizes the u.n. backed government in tripoli that the president the prime minister. is the only person the president might go on the speaking with including as recently as this monday but of course it's not the first time that france has been accused of putting its own strategic interests in this oil rich country ahead of anything else italy has made this claim. it would be very serious if france for economic or commercial reasons dropped an e.u. initiative to bring peace to libya and would support a party that is fighting as minister of the interior i will not stand by and watch
9:11 am
. but what we've seen in recent weeks is an increased escalation since the beginning over april now the statistics say that more than sue her. hundred people have been killed including civilians earns more than nine hundred people have been injured them statistics coming from the rules health organization but of course this conflict has been raging now for many years going back to two thousand and eleven when countries including france staged an intervention. or margaret i think has lost legitimacy to lead and he must leave. we came we saw that he died there. showing the world you would get rid of any kind and you would choose freedom. thank you as you see really not to be.
9:12 am
happy i have no money being. well one of the big three things that libya faces is the fact that the international community just called to agree on the way forward and what we've heard again all warnings from the u.n. but governments that if the international community called heal those divisions and decide the way forward then history courage to repeat itself again and libya could find itself back in those don't days of two thousand and eleven when not conflict that simple rule broke out. yes thanks for the update charlie toobin ski live from paris. the russian north korean leaders are expected to hold their first summit before the end of the month a low the exact dates the locations are yet to be firm lot of speculation however
9:13 am
let's say try in front of what we know a correspondent medina cauchon of the medina it is many years isn't it since the two countries last actually held. it's all in the fox but we do know what all the well actually we know very few details on this meeting one thing for sure both moscow and are busy getting ready for the official meeting between the russian president and he is a north korean counterpart now again we know very few details concerning this particular meeting very few details are available to public or even to journalists it seems both countries decided to keep every bit of information on it's top secret now there is nothing concerning as that date of this meeting or at least a possible place where it's a might happen now the kremlin spokesman dmitri peskov explained this decision to
9:14 am
keep everything under wraps a matter of security and now this trip to russia will be north korea's leader first visit to the country his father actually came to russia of three times and every time he used a special armor train. and he used the strain while traveling to this country so now many outlets many media outlets speculate that that might be the case as well that the current north korean leader might also come to russia using the special armor train now some other media outlets claim that the meeting might take place and. which is located in russia's far east in the end of april before the russian president's visit to china but again no official information concerning that either already some rumors or speculations now the news of the possible meeting came after and not at all successful negotiations between the u.s.
9:15 am
and north korea and north korea issued quite a damning criticism of u.s. secretary of state. colin for him to be replaced. even in the case of. possible resumption of dialogue with the us i wish our dialogue counterpart would not be prompt but some other person who is more careful mature in communicating with us well north korea made such a statement our claim to have task and you tactical weapon for the first time after unsuccessful negotiations with donald trump so all the details of my give you an idea of a sad thing that this meeting might have. bring us right up to date that meeting which will happen we're not sure where or when or to correspond with. a russian startup company is to launch mini satellites into the night sky to prove
9:16 am
ject advertisements. looks into whether reaching for the stars though is just right yeah. from over cars to steampunk style cyborgs the futuristic new art of sight fight is still peers have imagined scores of disturbing futures and in some cases fiction turns out to be a grim prophecy in a few years' time the shimmer of stars in the night sky might be out shined by the glow of billboards flashing with ads a russian company starts rocket is looking for clients to be move their advertisement from space yes you heard it right space here's how the russians say it will work with the books or the display itself consists of two hundred small
9:17 am
satellites called cube sats which we're going to live to an altitude of nearly five hundred kilometers satellite reflectors you sunlight directing it towards the earth so the cube sats act like pixels that we turn on and off when we need to the entire display moves into orbit showing messages or images all the satellites are equipped with engines which allows us to remove them from orbit once they've served their time and then have them burn out in the atmosphere. well naturally not everyone shares the excitement over such prospects imagine being overwhelmed with ads you can't skip you can't hide with block they're just floored up there and reachable almost like in that episode of the dark side. black mirror when the main character couldn't afford to skip a commercial. another concern what if it's hacked do i have to remind of all those cases when people
9:18 am
hacked into billboards to broadcast the not so child friendly content and after all this is not my. romans and gazing at a constellation of bronze but start rocket says there they are the new stars. the ancient greeks who constellations several thousand years ago and based their myths on the stars of today are myths abrams' we live by them of course space in the near future will become a kind of continuation of our living environment and as humanity goes their brands will go there too it's just a matter of time so will inevitably be followed by other companies to place their ads in space perhaps he's got a point there's not much money to be made from stars but the risen marketing their commercial possibilities are endless boundless it's going to be popular absolutely it'll be so popular and so many people will want to do it it will drive people crazy and they will then be clamoring for it to be removed because it will
9:19 am
be an eyesore people will hate it it will be a product of excess what if it's libelous what if it's scandalous what if it's considered against the religion of an adjoining area of a country can they complain who owns space if i'm somewhere and i look up and there's some noxious advertise but first something and i object to it you know i haven't a right of objection can you imagine war is being started by this and of course start rocket has yet to prove it can deliver its first space but who knows maybe the first real star wars episode will see will be the battle of the brands on the way ducks apparently changed trump's mind over expelling russian diplomats and leading virus software firm gets the all clear over spying claims that's all ahead on itself to break.

9:21 am
join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. i. images of dead ducks on sick children were apparently enough to make donald trump expel russian diplomats from the u.s. last year that's according to the new york times which claims the move followed the poisoning of former russian double agent surrogate and his daughter in the u. k. twelve quarter is across the story for us hi there don and what more does the new york times claim about all this that well you know in that article was actually about donald trump the new cia director and part of it describes
9:22 am
a meeting that allegedly happened between trump and hospital where they spoke about how to punish russia for the alleged poisoning of sergei nearly a script all that happened last year now the times claims that trump wasn't exactly gung ho about punishing russia he said that the script all situation fits within the boundaries of. spies will be spies if you will but it was apparently only after hospitals showed trump pictures from the british government of sick children and dead ducks that he decided he was going to start expelling russian diplomats mrs haskell was not the first to use emotional images to peel to the president but appearing in with her hard nosed realism proved effective. mr trump fixated on the pictures of the sick and children and the dead ducks at the end of the briefing him breeze destroying option. right so that animals and children very much the focus of
9:23 am
what was said to trumbull why he said he took that decision where any harm while the sunday mirror did publish an article shortly after the poisoning it back in march claiming that three children had fed ducks with poisoned bread that was given to them by sergei scripts himself but for now the british british health officials are saying that no docs or children were harmed actually that it was just that they don't have any evidence of that what russia one of the thing well the russian embassy actually said in london sent an official request of the british foreign office to confirm or deny that these pictures were sent to washington in the first place because we don't even know if they actually exist or not now they they said that this information this new information was surprising to say the least. like everyone else we learned of the existence of such photos from the new york times piece the information on hospitalized children and dead ducks is surprising the british authorities and media indeed reported that some members of the public
9:24 am
including children underwent medical checks as a precautionary measure but none had any signs of poisoning similarly it has never been reported that any ducks or other animals were killed as such we assume none of this is true. don't just remind us what did help in salzburg the last year that well basically sergei screwball and his daughter yulia were hospitalized in march twenty eighth and just days later the british pm theresa may started accusing russians of using a chemical weapon called novae chalk and they said that that they were trying to assassinate this cripples now the u.s. took the ukase word for it and shortly after rolled out sanctions against russia and expelled sixty russian diplomats from the united states lattimer putin called sergei screwball a traitor but he but the kremlin does deny allegations that russia had any hand in the legit attempted assassination of the strip malls and it's been over a year now and we haven't seen any actual concrete evidence to suggest that the
9:25 am
kremlin was responsible another thing is that nobody is described as its developers as one of the most potent chemical weapons in existence right now and neither of the script halls were killed in the exposure actually they ended up vanishing into obscurity afterwards we don't know exactly where they are right now so when it comes to concrete answers in this whole situation be far fetched to say that the docs are all in a row all right well thanks for bringing us up to date all not double quarter. tens of thousands of turned in sudan's capital to pressure the ruling military council into speeding up the transition of power to a civilian government it follows the military's arrest of former president omar al bashir is two brothers on corruption charges the sudanese military us that the long time leader last week after four months of street protests his thirty year rule was

spurn huawei and its technology the british were very quickly on the front foot sort of doing their own research and australia new zealand have been very outspoken that they will make their own decisions. the same is now happening with kaspersky and to always say the european union has come forward with a report that essentially finds no evidence whatsoever against because a lot of things are now being pointed at the u.s. to try and get more information for them but why they being so damning in kaspersky of russian companies why they be so dummy against while away a chinese company is this truly a fear on their part that they're going to be snooped on in their real security concerns or is this some form of international competition by some of the. focusing on a country on the brink and in the spotlight next in sophie and co libya keep it
