12:01 pm
and welcome to our. top story after a two year investigation an almost nonstop media coverage of the so-called russia gate scandal heavily redacted reports. the documentary feels there was no cooperation between. any american with russia in the twenty sixth presidential election. the special counsel's report states that his quote
12:02 pm
investigation did not establish that members of the trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the russian government in its election interference activities but donald trump is not off the hook in the eyes of the democrats and their media the u.s. heise judiciary committee has issued a subpoena for the redacted report as the focus now shifts to the possible abstraction of b. in vesting cation talking in biochem reduction or senior correspondent goes dia of out his say. 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 and conspiracy people would get closure what america got was this page off the
12:03 pm
redacted page censored into elegibility obviously some of this stuff could pass for more than ott and as with ott 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 a mole report outlines disturbing evidence. president's trip in gage in obstruction of justice and oh there is kind of confused so was mueller trump may have been cleared of collusion but obstruction of justice. in the air mueller writes that it's so complicated he couldn't decide whether trump tried to 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
12:04 pm
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 prints 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 and 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 this alleged trumped tantrum is only making it so much sweeter. the
12:05 pm
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 trump and like blood hounds still mercilessly dog him for obstruction and anyone that gets in the way the messenger included they ministration has a new face in any math error 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 barr to 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 reports and did nothing
12:06 pm
those who hated trump hate him more and vice versa if anything this report is going to america and americans further apart but hey i got to tell you at least in my view factures a happy. right gusti if well as expected lots of reaction to the release in tooting from russia with the kremlin saying the report provides no evidence of so-called interference and cold in the case of internal us political fighting we'll hear some of the views that guests an expert shared with those about the two years in the making miller report. they still can't get to a point where the president clued in with russia in fact they say quite categorically it did not happen so then why would the president knowing he is innocent obstruct buller put that in as a matter of pure politics as
12:07 pm
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 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 miller 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 with this be after that we're going to start hearing about how the redactions are at a way a way to hide the real truth and it's really never going to and we're going to continue to see one thing after another with trump but they went immediately from russia collusion to try on taxes trying financial statements and william bars
12:08 pm
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. to what prompted what was the impetus who paid for this investigation the rule in the united states the constitutional law is you're in a sense of proving 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 themselves more time the democrats do spend on this the more they're damaging their own party going into elections. libya's u.n. government has ended cooperation with france accusing the country of supporting
12:09 pm
rebel forces. relations between the interior ministry and the french side have been halted because of the french government support of the criminal have to well libya is currently split between the un government of national accord and rival general. tarr who controls the libyan national army now around a fortnight ago the general launched an offensive admits u.n. plans to facilitate a general election his troops heard fronting from to brooke in the east towards the u.n. backed government in the capital tripoli the other side of the country on the old syrian border now hundreds have been killed over the past two years other to god or other militant groups octave across the country in pockets but mainly here in the side hole r.t. charlotte dubin see reports now on the road between the un and fronts over the north african nation. the u.n. backed government in tripoli making some pretty stark allegations against the
12:10 pm
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 housed in a large is the only person the president might cornice 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 difference for economic or commercial reasons had brought an e.u. initiative to bring peace to libya and would support a policy that is fighting as minister of the interior i will not stand by and watch what we've seen in recent weeks is an increased escalation since the beginning of april now the statistics say that more than two hundred people have been killed
12:11 pm
including civilians and more than nine hundred people have been injured those statistics coming from the world 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 the market i think has lost legitimacy to lead and you must leave you to feel. you to. believe. we came we saw our died but you know the world you would get rid of a dictator and you would choose freedom we've. got to do the. let me be. happy yes i could have lived you know to be feeling.
12:12 pm
well one of the big three things that libya face is the fact that the international community just want to carry on the way forward and what we again oh warnings from the u.n. backed government that if the international community can't heal those divisions and decide the way forward then history repeats itself again and libya could find itself back in those dark days of two thousand and eleven when that conflict that simple rule broke out. a russian startup company is to launch a mini sub plights into the night sky to project advertisements where he has been looking into whether reaching for the stars is such a stellar idea. from over cars to steampunk style cyborgs the futuristic new site fight is still
12:13 pm
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 beam of their advertisement from space yes you heard it right space here is how the russians say it will work with. the display itself consists of two hundred small satellites called cube sats which were going to live to an altitude of nearly five hundred kilometers a satellite reflectors use some light directing the earth so the cube sat track like the pixels that we turn on and off when we need to be a tie display moves into orbit showing messages or images of the satellites are equipped with engines which allows us to remove them from whence they've served. time and then it can burn out in the atmosphere as you may well naturally not
12:14 pm
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 an event 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 hacked into billboards to broadcast the not so child friendly content and after all there's not much romans in gazing at a constellation of brands but start rocket says that they are the new stars as. the ancient greeks or constellations several thousand years ago and based their myths on the start of today are myths of brands we live by of course space in the
12:15 pm
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 . ability are endless this is 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 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 is some obnoxious advertisement for something and i object to it
12:16 pm
you 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. ok on the way ducks apparently change donald trump's mind over expelling the russian diplomats and clinton more besides in ninety seconds time. but the number. they matter to us is over one trillion dollars. more than ten white collar crime happens each day. eighty five percent of global wealth he longs to be ultra rich with six percent world market thirty percent

12:18 pm
eighteen minutes into the program you're very welcome the russian north korean leaders are expected to hold their first summit before the end of the a month although they exactly location are yet to be confirmed i spoke earlier to medina she told me what she knew. every bit of information about this meeting is kept top secret details coming from official sources practically zero we know nothing of this date or at least the police where this meeting may happen now as the kremlin spokesman explained safe secrecy by a matter of security and while there is very few official details some media outlets have already started to speculate there are rumors that the current leader of north korea may follow the example set by his father and come to russia using a special train some other media outlets claim the meeting will take place on the
12:19 pm
end of april which is a rather soon in the city of light of our stock in russia's far east before the russian president's official visit to china the agenda of the talks also are known but let me give you the idea of this meeting setting will take place after a rather unsuccessful negotiations between north korea and the u.s. even called for the replacement of the u.s. secretary of state michael impale into talks even in the case of possible resumption of dialogue with the u.s. dollar counterpart would not be but some of the person who is more careful in communicating with us while this came hours after north korea claimed to have tacit a new tactical weapon for the first time after a rather unsuccessful negotiations with donald trump and now this secrecy over the possible meeting with the russian president just leaves everybody wonder what happens next. if you expect election debates to be
12:20 pm
a little dry it is time to tick a look at what is happening today right now in fact in ukraine a perk you. are watching the most likely perving slow get out ahead of sunday's presidential election runoff the incumbent or should it be. up against comic actor zelinsky who played the president on t.v. and now is hotly tipped to take the job so as you can see that debate well on their way in the national stadium in kiev a train car t. correspondent joins me in this. i be enough before i think it's already seventy thousand people feel. right a little bit well i've been looking at pictures there's a lot of interest in what is happening today how did that come because there was a not election before and obviously there was no clear winner but how did it turn
12:21 pm
from not to a debate usually you expect these kind of debates to happen in some sort of proper t.v. studio they're usually well planned and well regulated by the law actually behind your back you can see that it's not a full stadium there are some empty seats behind the stage but just because the actual football field can be filled with people it is expected that some sixty thousand people are attending it is the main stadium of ukraine that's actually the place where the final of the euro twenty twelve happened in our opinion football championships but with these debates according to ukrainian law the candidates are not obliged to take part in it so before the first round there were no debates at all between the main competitors the favorites but after the first round when mr selenski the comedian came out as a winner the current president petro poroshenko realized that definitely he needs
12:22 pm
to do something there needs to be some sort of move to energize his supporters and surprisingly though it was. you who invited petro poroshenko to have these debates but this was where the trick was he said it needs to happen at a stadium people were thinking that given the fact that portion kohl only scored sixty. percent in the first round compared to thirty percent by males and. course it was thought that he might be scared of something. probably some bowling in the stadium he might reject but then i think it was four o'clock in the morning came out in a video and said. agree to the debates but then it was all about the format so a lot of discussion. they couldn't figure out till the very last moment how it's meant to be done there were two stages set up on the stadium what would. go in there were his supporters next to what the other one was done by selenski so to the
12:23 pm
very end it was not clear whether they're going to happen and how they're going to happen but they are happening it was unclear if they were going to shake hands they did and it's well underway just to give the audience a little bit of an idea right before this there was a rock concert going on there was musicians on the stage there were people with fly exe with banners coming in some of them i think actually paid in this well some spectators to go in but let's keep letters lynskey. he wasn't on nolan in political sense so you know he was a knock at the president but to go from zero to being the front runner and he's also odds on to win on sunday i believe against me i know he won the initial. the top of the. polls but knowing that direct runoff he's big favorite and then as well there's not a single unofficial poll there are many of them the results are different there's not a single poll that predicts that porsche and co when white and hoping to say he has
12:24 pm
a big afternoon a big evening in kiev and so it's a little i think it's going but people are saying that there isn't much that he can do you can see his toll is much stronger than that of zelinsky he's trying to scream he put some army veterans on stage right behind him and ukrainian flags perhaps we can show you a bit of that if there's a close up just on. petro poroshenko left we can see men and camo flaws with ukrainian flags so yeah you can see them right there so he's trying all kinds of tricks mr nestor was saying that some of the tricks were dirty but i just want to remind you of the score in the first round so yes people were saying that the polls were showing that is supposed to go first and when this first round but nobody expected him to win more than thirty percent of the vote right. almost two times less than that on the show people were saying he was lucky enough
12:25 pm
to get into the second round because you know too much and it was very close as well but it still was a very bad result for him and now even some of the most optimistic pro president polls are showing that he is not going to win more than forty percent of the vote so it's a very tough one for him and we're going to be watching what's going to be said right there on the just before we let you go do you think a. sizeable proportion if. this today or does it look as if this this is a comic actors linsky knows how to talk to a crowd before shank is the president will it make a big effect whoever wins the debate today well really we cannot predict it's very difficult to predict this many people are saying that. the almost the whole ukrainian population in its entirety have already chosen but besides the fact that mr zanti has a lot of experience in front of audiences he has zero experience in politics and he
12:26 pm
didn't take part in any events like this in the build up to the election so really we have to be watching we have to see what's going on right now he's holding a paper looks like he was writing some stuff down after petro poroshenko yes it's good to see that he's ready to fold up and a lot of things are going to be at the same time at the same time. it is visible you. on his face you can read off his face that he isn't that much experienced so ok i will be watching and i'll tell you all about it in the thing the evening ahead trying to bring us right up to date on not debate between petro poroshenko the incumbent president of ukraine. lenski who played the president on might just be in a couple of days time all right to actually unfortunately i did tease that we've got the story of the cia chief using pictures of ducks to sway donald trump's mind about expelling russian diplomats we will try and get to that story it's one not to be missed the next hour this is our international thanks for joining me today next

what did last week increase the level of chaos across libya even if you wince truthfully that we continue because there will be. very very intensive resistance to him across the country and i think i'm afraid like everybody else that this chaos for a long while is going to attract more extremists from around africa and at least we . came here where did you work before you came here when you live. in many us states capital punishment is still practiced convicted prisoners can spend years waiting for execution but most of the
