with paris france the violence in the north african nation intensifies with hundreds of the past few weeks. here in moscow and you're watching on t.v. international live from last week it with meaning to welcome to the program. after a two year investigation and almost nonstop media coverage of the so-called russia gate scandal the heavily redacted men of reporters finally sorted it out the document reveals there was no cooperation between donald trump and the american with the 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
1:02 pm
election interference activities and donald trump isn't off the hook in the eyes of the democrats and media the u.s. house judiciary committee has issued a subpoena for the unredacted report as the focus now shifts to the possible obstruction of the investigation more on that from our senior correspondent mark after. 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 after redacted page censored into illegibility obviously some of this stuff could pass for modern art and as with art everyone interprets this report how they
1:03 pm
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 that president trapping gauged in obstruction of justice and all of his kind of confused so was mueller trump may have been cleared of collusion but obstruction of justice scalia and 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 constitutional system of checks and balance. says and the principle that no person is above the law specifically you have found eleven instances where trump potentially tried to obstruct justice and democrats have
1:04 pm
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 it was 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 trump 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
1:05 pm
the democrats smell blood they have trumped up and like blood hounds 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 no question 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're 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 those who hated trump hated him more and vice versa if anything this report is going to america and americans further apart but they got to tell you at
1:06 pm
least incapacity a fracture is a happy. as expected lots of reaction to the release including russia with the kremlin saying the report provides no evidence of so-called interference and calling it a case of internal us political fighting has some of the views guests and experts shared with us about the two years in the making the report. they still can't get to a point where the president clued in with russia in fact they see quite categorically it did not happen so then why would the president knowing he is innocent obs struct put that in as a matter of pure politics as 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
1:07 pm
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 happen 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 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 end we're going to continue to see one thing after another with trump but they went immediately from russia collusion to trying to access trying financial statements and william bars 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
1:08 pm
that turns the conversation from what's inside of this investigation to what prompted what was the impetus who paid for this. best of the rule of the united states the constitutional law is 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 themselves more time the democrats do spend on this the more they're damaging their own party going into elections. if you expect to get election debates to be a little dry and then it's time to take a look at what's happening right now in ukraine a packed stadium in camp or watching the most unlikely pairing a slug it out ahead of sunday's presidential election runoff incumbent a petro poroshenko is up against comic actor volodymyr as a landscape who played a president on t.v. and now is hotly tipped to take the job let's bring in our t.v. . expect. i mean we've been following this
1:09 pm
a little bit the expectations for this debate were high do you think it's living up to the hype i was waiting for these debates to happen for weeks and weeks this is politics in ukraine the result there always unpredictable extraordinary and the debates were extraordinary from the very beginning i mean just the fact that they're happening on a stadium you've seen it it was a packed but still loads of people tens of thousands people definitely some of the seats behind the stage were empty you know there were actually two stages but there was also something quite extraordinary rather but let me just start explaining this from the very beginning. after the first round petro poroshenko was losing almost fifteen percent to boredom or selenski. rather unexpectedly the comedian won more than thirty percent of the vote and petro poroshenko the current president scored sixteen and it was clear that debates could be the
1:10 pm
tool for the leader to somehow change the situation. but then this was a proper attack by misters and in ski. you could see that people who are his advisors or something they were eager to step in with that kind of moves he said let's do it on a stadium petro poroshenko. didn't respond for several hours but then when it was well into the night it was already early morning i remember seeing a tweet from petro poroshenko had about three thirty in the morning he came up with a video saying let's make it happen on a stadium and then it happened on a stadium to be honest with you i expected more people to call me and i expected more viewing more reaction from the audience even though there was a great deal reaction but again just because it's ukrainian just because everything's unpredictable i don't know maybe it's maybe some other kind of
1:11 pm
exchanges that didn't happen but the exchanges between the debaters were quite tough and at some point mr zelinsky said this let's have a listen. which first of all i would like to see that i'm not your opponent i'm your judge. yeah i mean what's interesting if we look at the former i have to mention it because it's probably a bit alien to a lot of western countries fall into the conflict and start of the not insert start with the concert i'll just go back to what mr zanti said a bit later but then if you look at how the debates were organized a patrol or senko said he was ok with having the debates there on the stadium but then he rammed into his studio of a t.v. channel where the lenski shows are wrong and he asked mr zanti to come in and have
1:12 pm
a debate with him immediately that was five days before friday but selenski was already in france having a conversation with emanuel macron but mr poroshenko the president forced the people from that channel to call mr zelinsky and there was actually a live phone conversation on their mr he said no i won't call. later i'll see you have to state that you know the debate and the debates are meant to happen in a proper t.v. studio and it wasn't clear from the very end whether the were going to happen but they did happen although they were having discussions in arguments about the rules that's how the two stages of and that's where you saw the different singers and bands performing those who are supporting or shango on one stage those who are supporting selenski on a different stage and for me it was unclear how it's going to happen because one man needs to go to another stage or vice versa and surprise surprise the current
1:13 pm
president walked all the way over to the different end of the stadium and he stood up to talk to mr zilinskas yeah i mean obvious. if you look positively it's encouraging the youth to get involved with politics there was a lot of young people in that stadium yeah and obviously that constant probably helped that situation i mean if we look at the characters involved we obviously. let's talk about him a little bit he. plays a president and t.v. here's this still going out on netflix do you think there's been a significant impact on the fact that he plays this role. in what's happening now in the country politically people first looked at it and they thought it was a joke to be fair because nobody expected him to do that but i can tell you what really drove really encouraged people to go and vote for him was all
1:14 pm
that emotion they felt and you know they watch his t.v. show and the whole t.v. show where he plays the president was about a history teacher at school who suddenly becomes sick of everything that's happening in the country and eventually becomes president and for many people when they realize that he was running it was a dream come true and when we just played a little part of what didn't he said when he said that this was actually meant that he wants to prosecute all the people from the older political elite who were criminals according to the opposition so to say. they might become government very soon this was what his words were all about at the same time petro poroshenko was trying to trade with dimmers alinsky as a russian puppet as a puppet of a different all of our who all means the channel where zelinsky shows are wrong and to be to be fair most of the debates were about that them throwing accusations at
1:15 pm
each other of being puppets of various sides and being puppets of the rich elites but you should remember that portion it was an oligarchy himself he's a billionaire. the chocolate factory that's how it why he's called the chocolate king and one of the things he's accused of is not giving up his business during his term he promised to do that but he couldn't do that in five years as to whether these debates will affect the actual results i can tell you that opinion polls are putting zelinsky strongly in favor some of them are saying he's going to win with sixty percent of the votes some are pushing it even higher and it looks like it will be very difficult for petro poroshenko even though his speeches were very emotional is that a lot of things during the debate to really somehow change that situation and well we will see on sunday you know we have to go to see because obviously we're going to expect them to like each other off as it were and accuse each other of being puppets is really quite interesting isn't it but the situation at the moment what
1:16 pm
will happen if the length she does when. well. he again he is promising that he will completely change the political lay it all the country he wants all the people in government to be newcomers people who we haven't seen on the political stage before so that's what he's promising he's polishing changes and everything and in fact i believe last night he was. actually trying to somehow show what is team was he went on a t.v. show and he brought all his experts and people who are meant to be in his future government if he wins and there were only two familiar faces the others weren't there so it really will be something new for ukraine if he becomes president and if the all the opinion pre-vote opinion polls are correct yeah well we'll have to see
1:17 pm
if this t.v. debate has significant impact on sunday but i'm sure we'll keep across this. on the way why gazing up the heavens could pop up in the future. join me every first week on the alex simon shore and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sports business i'm sure i'll see you then. what is it coy and. magic in a. new type of digital currency decentralized digital scarcity chancellor i'm bringing a second bailout for banks called the genesis blog for reason they're calling it. a
1:18 pm
source of optimism because i can control my own financial destiny it's just a new way of coming to consensus it's a game changer it is human history this is columbus discovering a new world this paradigm shifting knowledge that transforms economics and finally get a hard. landing on to the max and stacey. welcome back to the program libya's un backed government has ended cooperation with france accusing the country of supporting rebel forces. all relations between the interior ministry and the french side have been halted because of the french government
1:19 pm
support of the criminal. maybe as currently smith between the un backed government of national accord and rival general khalifa haftar the libyan national army a fortnight ago the general launched an offensive in its plans to facilitate a general election. his troops are advancing from a broken the east toward u.n. backed government in the capital tripoli in the west hundreds have been killed over the past two weeks added to this of the militant groups active across the country but mainly in the south. reports now on the route between the u.n. and france over the north african nation. the un backed government in tripoli making some pretty stark allegations against the french government saying they're actually supporting the other side that france is categorically deny 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
1:20 pm
person the president might go on is 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 it's really has made this it would be very serious difference for economic or commercial reasons i brought an e.u. initiative to bring peace to libya and would support a party that is fighting as minister of the interior or will not stand by and watch what we've seen in recent weeks is an increased escalation since the beginning now the statistics say that more than two hundred people have been killed including civilians and more than nine hundred people have been injured just it's 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
1:21 pm
staged an intervention well mark gadhafi has lost legitimacy to lead and you must leave. you. we came we saw our he died but. the world you would get rid of it is my job and you would choose freedom we've. got three. hundred thirty. five years yet i could have gone very likely to feel. well one of the big three things that libya faces is the fact that the international community just cold to agree on a way forward and what we've heard again all warnings from the un backed governments that if the international community called heal those divisions and
1:22 pm
decide the way forward then history courage 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. the russian start up company is to launch a mini satellites into the night sky to project advertisements egos adama looks into whether we can for the stars in such a start up idea. from over cars to steampunk style cyborgs the futuristic new are of side fighters still peers have imagined scores of disturbing new only 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 old shined by the glow of billboards flashing with ads
1:23 pm
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 books or the display itself consists of two hundred small 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 sat back 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
1:24 pm
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 this is not my. romans and gazing at a constellation of bronze but start rockets says that they are the new stars as. the ancient greeks constellations several thousand years ago and based their myths on the stars and 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 back to 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 reason marketing their
1:25 pm
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 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 obnoxious advertise but first something and i object to it 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
1:26 pm
the first real star wars episode will see will be the battle of the brands. news of the now i'll be back at the top of the hour with more updates but to stay with us now for a documentary called i want my sexy back that's next here on r.t. international. best's drugs were her cocaine as were four bucks for the under fifty it's a good job everybody use cocaine crack cocaine you can smoke it this is worth fifteen thirty. twenty. two this is about a fifteen dollar big people smoke this one figures a sweetie you can find these drugs in any city in the united states that you want
