at eleven am from moscow just bluffing russia's foreign minister says he doesn't believe that there's any real appetite in the u.s. for a military intervention in venezuela. commission president downplays concerns that euro skeptic parties are set to make unprecedented gains in the blocks upcoming elections. russia continues to mourn the victims of sunday's plane crash here in moscow that killed forty one including a twelve year old girl. good

morning when i'm kevin i mean this is out international you're watching it on she was day the seventh of may review around the world from spain with this first then russia's foreign minister has said that he doesn't believe there's any real support for u.s. military intervention in crisis stricken venezuela even among top officials in washington he says made those comments following talks with his american counterparts. on the sidelines of the arctic forum in finland. as the story. but. talked to the media he thought it wasn't a good idea to shed light on any of the details pretty much but he did respond to my question about mike barrows statement from this weekend that russia must get out of venezuela and also about the possibility of on call said intervening militarily when you start a loose. consent to do this and we tried not to concentrate on those statements

which are publicly discussed because they are being affected by many factors the don't have anything to do was real politics we concentrated on the real politics in the sense from my contacts with the u.s. american and european colleagues i don't see any suppose us military action immediately after this i asked the russian foreign minister if that included american diplomats and to that he simply answered yes but the real question right now is though whether that is really the case because many times we've heard from the most high ranking officials in america the phrase all options are on the table including the military one and when secretary of state pump ale was heading to europe the journalists were reporting that on the plane he said that nicolas maduro can no longer be in charge of this country the government in venezuela understands

that they could end up having to brace for the worst case scenario just listen to what their foreign minister said when he was in the russian capital on sunday to open it but oh but it won't get us you know we are ready for all scenarios the first includes diplomacy dialogue and peace and i think if the u.s. prefers the military response we're ready to resist to have an army police where our people and we are ready to destroy any army no matter how powerful it is so we said. leave the most influential powers on the opposite side here the government at any cost for door and the self-proclaimed president one quite though are finally in touch on this president donald trump house poke into president florida more potent the top diplomats have met but it is unclear whether that would still lead to a peaceful resolution of this longstanding venezuelan crisis from

a british diplomat william ellison told a c. also doesn't believe the united states would actually launch an intervention to topple president nicolas maduro these are empty threats and there are threats all vanity that threats of of looks like the wounded bear wounded live because law is. going as well in particular with russia and china as support international law i don't see the possibility of an overt u.s. intervention at all because that would be extremely dangerous for the world's ability and cause major problems for the american economy in fact if you look at the economic multiplier effect and other financial factors going on at the moment whereby gold is being bought and the dollar is being turned away from except exception so i think it's empty rhetoric rhetoric frankly. but europe's parliamentary elections now less than three weeks away polls are showing that you

are skeptic parties are poised to make unprecedented gains and while the findings are causing concern in some quarters the e.u. seems more relaxed at the prospect of charlotte do bensky reports. the alarm bells are sounding in brussels across the european union poll after poll showing voters are looking for change and that change isn't music to the east is euro skeptic parties are intent on shaking up the house hearing from a recent poll shows marine le pen's national rally could top the ballots edging slightly ahead of president batons republic march and italy the two euro skeptic governing coalition parties also set to repeal wards in make his vote and to the north the alternative for germany party believes it's about to build on posix acts it's also taking a stance and germany's feature membership of the book demanding reform so saying it will campaign to leave the union really the pen since the revolution is underway.

in this piece of loose economic social demographic and the identity of these two disasters are projects constitutes a revolution is peaceful democratic revolution. of common sense this stoppage god isn't likely to go without a fight but it senses a change in the. standing united makes the stronger the forwards in our country. has to change to push forward the european project without giving any ground to those who want to see it fall back. we must defend against nationalists and the self-centered this is our. anyone taking from the e.u. parliament has only limited powers it doesn't even propose them so it's actually the unelected european commission that comes up with those laws which are then fleshed out by a different structure the european council along with the european parliament so

despite the polls showing the euro skeptic incumbents are about to shake up the e.u. parliament it seems it won't. because they knew many sleepless nights nobody knows this but last time i rejected the can a deceased of six commissioners presented to me by national governments do you remember that governments merely propose commissioners it is the president of the commission who accepts them and allocates their responsibilities what the parliament does have its ability for though is amongst other things resolutions and there are hundreds if not thousands of them for example expected recently to place in the new why didn't paul go on to say as to saudi arabia because of the concern that they are being used in the war in yemen but this vote doesn't actually compel member states to keep the balance and in fact the most powerful some point to a lack of teeth from parliament as being the reason that they don't even bother to vote in its elections and in twenty fourteen voter turnout hit

a record low of forty three percent perhaps of the real question is does it matter who you vote for because in reality even a seismic shake up at any peace level won't have any impact on the commission nor the council where it seems the power base weenie. real engine. was in the commission this is either the end of the. e.u. integration. e.u. policy on for another three years and. certainly. it's one of the most undemocratic situations these people. basically comparable to with you citizens that's why all this wrong inference from the eve of the citizen this is totally disconnected.

that they don't feel part of the debate. russia is mourning the deaths of the forty one who lost their lives after that air flight fly. crash landed here remorse go on sunday the national carriers simply superjet difficulty shortly after taking off and was forced to return the share of metal airport the plane then hit the runway hard after bouncing a few times and burst into flames it was squitti consumed by the fire most of those who died were from moments the northwest and city the flight was bound for. you. if you're in the future ships those which you can print media even if you wish to. use it. if you produce the removes but it's. the rules to come i give these shoot it. for you to see did you teach it was. mostly. shit you.

this is. the. sort of the survivors of the crash of return to moments to be with their families it goes down off as the stories of some of those who weren't so fortunate. this is i'll be now a businesswoman and single mother she was returning from a business trip back to more months back to her ten year old son she was raising on her own somewhere in the same boarding queue with all bina you've gagne and twelve year old sophia the surgeon had been giving his daughter an escape from their gloomy northern home town to enjoy a few days in the warmth of the moscow sun now that tiana welcomed albina oh you've given the sophie and all other passengers on board the flight attendant was getting

ready for yet another take off now three minutes past six in the evening the aircraft lifted into the skies from sheremetyevo airport a few minutes later than the first seventeen minutes of the flight went smoothly passengers in this seats belts fastened the sukhoi superjet ascended approaching a storm and then everything went from ok to bad then then straight to hell literally in. flash to call from the ball to widening the plane and apparently liking strike hits the jet now more than aircraft have safety systems to protect themselves from situations exactly like these but this time the lightning sends all communications systems on board of line the pilots send a distress signal make a u. turn and head back to moscow apparently they go in almost blind with limited

communications they can barely get any aid from the ground they aim for an emergency landing on one of the runways but the aircraft is too heavy minutes ago we've had been filled to the brim and the pilots decided not to dump access fuel there's no definitive answer why but the most likely theory so far is the didn't want to risk circling around a bustling aerial hub with only sporadic contact with the ground so weighty jets wheels slam into the runway and bounce right off it another attempt and the plane crash lands its tail hits the tarmac with such force it ruptures the tanks and all that fuel instantly catches fire and there's the blazing jet slides along the runway passengers helpless.

the jet finally comes to a stop and the evacuation kicks off by that moment the fire had already devoured the back and the middle emergency exits so there's only one way forward from the nose of the jet tianna the flight attendant helps people through and down the chutes those who can walk those who can't and are passed out she literally shut. of his out of the door herself i'm alive only thanks to the stewardesses the girls stood there in the smoke it was dark extremely hot but they pulled people out and helped them get down the chutes now by tiana helped a total of thirty seven people survive the mayhem. you've gainey and sophia were not among them. the bride to be found the.

same year once a happy wife and mother in an instant his widowed and left childless for her tragedy has come calling again she had already lost her niece alina in a school shooting last year and now it's her husband and daughter and tatiana the unconditional hero she may have survived herself but she's still to make it through the day after day after day of survivor's guilt haunted by the forty one she couldn't help. another story the submerged in the wake of the tragedy is that a flight attendant meg same voice say of he's been hailed a hero as he died trying to open the rear exit door in order to evacuate passengers at the back of that plane. to get into the.

ideal a dream which began in our school would last and up until that date. was a very responsible and goal oriented person and she was always ready to take it that's exactly what you showed on that day. she was expected to be at the front of the plane touches switched places with the students perhaps he expected something bad would happen he took the heat inside. his stayed inside the aircraft and pushed the surviving people along the ground was inhaling smoke and then lost consciousness.

from the middle and look at his face he always smiled always he wanted conflict he was the kindest person he is looking out from the photo but he can't say a word and i can't stop looking at him. for the plane's black boxes have been recovered now and the investigation into the crash is ongoing that has been removed from the runway to as we heard its entire section was destroyed in the fire we are station experts state gave his thoughts on what might have gone so badly. i believe the flight control system was working ok but not in the usual mode of operation so it's quite right that the investigation will take some time to look at hell the pilots were trained to land the airplane in that putting. software mode there have been some recent accidents some of them seem to be the malton level all electronics equipment and pilot training associated with that i would say that also

the media are able to pick up and report the accidents much more easily so the accident rate is going up slightly recently but not significantly so we haven't gone back ten or twenty years anything like that let's get a little more evidence from the flight recorders in the cockpit voice recorder interviews of the crew and then let the interstate aviation committee discuss with the russian certification committee what should happen to the airplane. what you got international think should time today coming up donald trump's fired off another twitter salvo china setting the stage for a further trade war escalation just one of the stories ahead. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy foundation let it be an arms race is often spearing dramatic to follow only.

exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk.

again the u.s. presidents threaten to ratchet up tariffs on hundreds of billions of dollars worth of imports from china the latest escalation of the trade war between the world's leading economic powers comes at a week of on level talks scheduled between washington and beijing aimed to try to to end the conflict with more of the story and donald trump's high risk negotiating tactics ongoing is kill him open. we're over two years into the presidency of the great deal maker mr era fired himself donald trump and it seems he's operating with the in my way or the highway strategy these are his latest comments on china. the trade deal with china continues but too slowly as they attempt to renegotiate no trump is threatening a new tariff on over three hundred twenty five billion dollars worth of chinese goods now this all or nothing strategy seems to be a staple of the trumpet ministration at this point we've got mike pompei o saying

that no country will be allowed to import iranian oil any nation or entity interacting with iran should use its diligence and err on the side of caution the risks are simply not going to be worth the benefits if you don't abide by this they'll be sanctions trump has demanded that russia stop supporting the elected government of venezuela with. the russians but no right to get out. i want you next question the u.s. state department has demanded that turkey not by any russian ass four hundred missiles we've also made it clear to turkey that we have very serious concerns with its stated plans to proceed with the acquisition of the russian s four hundred missile defense system trumpets threaten the palestinian authority that money is on the table that money is not going to them unless they sit down and negotiate peace

this will make a difference on how americans look at the un and on how we look at countries who disrespect us in the us and this vote will be remembered this all seems to fit a strategy that trump laid out in his bestseller the art of the deal the worst thing you can possibly do in a deal is seem desperate to make it that makes the other guy smell blood and then you're dead no one can say the united states reeks of desperation however all of this doesn't seem to be resulting in better deals but rather no deals all the bombastic walk away is an rip up severs altered in no progress trump says my way or the highway and people around the world generally take the. hiway countries around the world are still buying iranian oil russia is still supporting venezuela at this point turkey says it still intends to buy s. four hundred missiles from russia and furthermore at the palestinians are sticking to the same firm position that they held before and while he's failing to make new deals trump seems to be breaking

a lot of the old ones the united states will therefore suspend its obligations under the i.m.f. treaty the united states will withdraw. from the paris. climate of court i am announcing today that the united states will withdraw from the iran nuclear deal yeah the tough guy stuff might have worked pretty well when trump was selling real estate on madison avenue but is it going to work in geopolitics let's see what china does next. to me one. time that we. are going to meet with them even though you have an agreement donald trump has given him a lot of. ability to maybe work in the. global there would be

a market in may of trying to be the oil the aid group would be trying to train well who. could. face book's provokes another storm of controversy this time by burning on the straight breast cancer company that it claims was violating its nudity rules. but it is a good. move. those ads feature topless survivors of breast cancer they cover themselves with small cakes become poems launched by the breast cancer network australia together with the bakers delight chain last year it raised more than half a million dollars. is the c.e.o. of breast cancer network australia and said the facebook previously approved the ads for their later so they violated its policy. we were so disappointed to hear that facebook had sounds that now they are

a brave women and men who all had breast cancer we're told that they were probably too real and to confronting to be able to have paid on facebook particularly in that forty plus age group use facebook to tell their friends and family of things that are important to them so facebook has been important we have playing trying to get in contact with facebook and still we have only heard through the made here in fact here in australia that they sent to us we needed to add educational messages this was very new news to us the only thing that we knew is that for all the ads were allowed to happen but then again the day that we launched facebook said these ads were no longer permissible a spokesperson for facebook australia said that while she personally loved the idea of the ads didn't follow the platforms guidelines seemed the policy does a low for the posting of post must check to me photos for ordinary users but for

advertisers the rules are strict it is so twitter users have been reacting to what happened. finally did the plug for you to paula see facebook seriously but this is ok. this is not to route to facebook naked garden indeed takes precedence over a fundraiser for cancer survivors and sufferers. strange the true agenda of the facebook mission statement so when a group use the facebook form for a good cause they jump and it's been shifted down we spoke to human rights attorney jennifer britton she thinks that facebook needs to avoid selectively enforce against rules facebook right now say that it has a consistent policy if you just look at the language of its policy but it is not consistent and how it in forces its policy is targeting in campaigns like this with breast cancer research or awareness but it's also targeting different political groups and certain things so it needs to look at how it targets so that it chooses to enforce its ban under because there are many people who have far more explicit

ads that are not banned we're seeing that america has a silence prominent conservative voices were seen that is they silence other things other ads and they target these people they target those that they want to silence that differ with them politically or socioeconomically and that is not ok we need to have consistency and we need to have platforms that allow the freedom of speech to come out rather than silencing the freedom of speech and using it under the guise of violating policies. that's why things looking so far don't get checked at all t dot com follow stories as they break down throughout the day for now for me kevin o. and whatever you're doing where have you all run the world of good shoes to. what

politicians to do something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president i'm sure. some want to be rich. but you going to be cross it's like the before korean the more can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of the house. first sip. position folks go through a period of sort of. see how the first bloody. good year would begin somebody would believe that it was my job to the to look. to losing is its ability . to get rid of that all you want the solicitor going to the banana at us that it's a liberal still it was god who think you all know paul. enough well it was pretty

but growing less a. kind of what used to which could go on and on with done long ago but i come. here to leave the group you're going to be you know good you'll see a storm in the lead here so i'm i looked up from mood subversion to doing the clue which are coconspirators some are going to. in front of the cameras coca-cola c.e.o. promises a world without waste outside objective. god behind the scenes the american company is doing everything in its power to eschew any alternatives to plastic like the return bottle i think obviously the shelf. after months of negotiations with the american multinational we have

a meeting at the headquarters of coca-cola france for an interview but. it's a message we don't love so well. when i live to see. how polite and when welcome. and affection with want to know if you want to go through the body it seems we have not yet won that trust. question in doing as a short as a political move every thought well wait a minute back up and say i should social john. the vice president of the company michael goldsman has travelled from the united states to on so all questions he has worked for coca-cola for twenty one years he's in charge of global policy and environmental sustainability and he's a french speaker. and they'll see us in a moment was that we knew that i spoke on over we're going to be twenty odd years off are you really so i'll interview is done in french. book i could have.

told is human behavior. i think gets me to what they are. because they perceived that the south. korean economy secular. ac moved. to the l u t's. who. would take. their kid out of the plastic. may. day. deco. fare on a. didn't really. feel me.
