if they do anything they will suffer greatly we'll see what happens with a rock the u.s. president fires another warning shot at stop complying with some of its obligations under the 25th the new clear deal that with donald trump secretary of state currently on his way to russia on a mission to thrash out a solution to the escalating crisis also to come venezuela brands a u.s. police raid on its embassy in washington d.c. a violation of international law remaining activists in the compound say they are trying to prevent an illegal takeover and a u.s. military school publishes a decades long history of washington's interventions in the affairs of other countries. as a coup guy plus. he founded by protests in various european ports fighting to

take up an arms delivery that activists say could be used to kill civilians in. the morning just gone 10 o'clock here in moscow you're watching international the u.s. president donald trump has issued another warning to iran warning it of serious consequences if it restarts its nuclear program. we'll see what happens 9 with iran if they do anything it will be a very bad mistake if they do anything i'm hearing little stories about iran if they do anything they will suffer greatly we'll see what happens with the us. when it does come amid media reports claiming the trump of ministration has drawn up plans to send 120000 troops to the middle east in case iran attacks american forces

or starts working on nuclear weapons in a few hours time u.s. secretary of state is meeting his russian counterpart sergey lavrov in russia's black sea resort of sochi and the 2 will discuss the crisis surrounding iran amid fears washington and tehran i read towards war let's get more now from what i guess here in sochi for it's good afternoon she. so is any progress than expected from these talks. well they're certainly hoping for progress but you do things that people are looking at things realistically the situation is incredibly dangerous it is rife for an escalation an entire carrier battle group with all these sort of warships sent to the center the persian gulf to iran's doorstep the europeans warning that you know they fear that their skill ation could come despite neither side really wanting at the situation is so teds

and the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov yesterday told us during a press briefing that he's going to have a very honest conversation with his american counterpart. when he will produce notes or real ask mike compare how the u.s. is going to deal with the crisis that was made by washington's unilateral decisions iran has the right to partly suspend the implementation of the nuclear deal if other parties don't keep their commitments are you worth noting here is that mike pump a 0 canceled the moscow poor. of his visit to russia at the last moment instead diverting to brussels where the europeans foreign heads of the european union were holding a session on the situation in iran on the crisis there and their fears of an escalation apparently according to mr lavrov the secretary of state of the united states was going to apply tremendous pressure on the europeans to pull out of the

uranium deal to leave the uranium afloat by all appearances he failed to do so because the europeans came out with a statement urging for calm urging for deescalation and expressing hope the this deal would survive that the iranian deal would survive and that cooler heads would prevail. we are living in a crucial delicate moment where. the most relevant. attitude to take the most responsible attitude to take is clearly should be and that of maximum maximum restraint avoiding any escalation on a military site. worth noting here is that iran itself has expressed great hope that the deal could survive that the remaining parties of the iranian

nuclear deal will do what they promise to do will abide by their commitments and that is to shield the iranian economy its financial industry its all experts from exports from sanctions the united states would have pulled out almost a year ago today when it pulled out of the iranian nuclear deal it reinstated sanctions came into force in november that greatly hurt the arena and economy greatly hurt the iranian economy the europeans in writing promise to protect the arrangements from that so far there hasn't been any protection according to the text of the agreement between the u.n. security council plus europe and iran the iranian nuclear deal the europeans have to have to establish a mechanism to protect the iranians and hasn't happened iran is now threatening to pull out of the treaty altogether it is said that it is already suspended a number of points for example that is it will continue to enrich uranium to levels beyond what it is bound to by the treaty itself that it will stop selling excess

uranium that it will. stop selling heavy water. it's an escalation anyway you look at u.s. warships in the persian gulf the radiance threatening to pull out of the treaty so there's a lot riding on what happens today on wall on the talks today between mike compared to me and putin of whether they come to any sort of agreement and whether as i said cooler heads will prevail. ok thank you and that was more a ghastly of their for several porting from such a. remark middle east analyst convey a frosty abi does believe iran nuclear deal can still be rescued. iran has given 60 days to europe to clean up its act and live up to its commitments and we are not starting to see a renewed effort on the part of europe to do exactly that and hopefully the meeting

. as a fresh reminder to the american as that the course of policy toward europe is failing and europe is determined to side with the deal just as russia and china are so i'm cautiously optimistic about the lifespan of j.c. . the ability of the other signatories to join forces and preserve the deal in the interest of regional and global peace and americans need to make a u.-turn on their own u.s. policy come back to the table negotiate with. iran is not here any country washington is trying to bend to its will walk in looks back now at some of the governments that have been on the receiving end of u.s. special operations. naam ukraine yugoslavia libya one of these countries have in common well you guessed it uncle sam has been involved the u.s. central command recently published a study that's now being dubbed the pentagon's scholars guide to overthrowing

governments the joint special operations university published its study they looked into research of special forces operations of the us military across the planet from 1941 to 2003 now the joint special operations university is an entire academic institution dedicated to studying the art of war here's what their research found that the report divines u.s. special ops into 3 categories disruption coersion and regime change 68 percent of the operations were disruptive only non-disruptive cases took up 32 percent they were divided between coersion and regime change you're the highlighted cases of the 3 categories.

the. $47.00 instances where study disruptive actions failed just less than half the time and attempts to strong arm foreign governments were more successful working in 3 fourths of the instances when it comes to overthrowing governments u.s. special ops or batting it $23.00 out of $47.00 attempted overthrows now the only overthrow conducted during war time was successful that's the war in afghanistan in 2001 but is success really the right way to describe the conditions. singles countries the united states by entering the war against the taliban. post $911.00 resulted in the us seeing a reversal of all of the strategic gains and friendship. been achieved in central

asia they lost also credibility in afghanistan they they destroyed the credibility of u.s. strategic forces and u.s. prestige that the most shocking statements come at the end of the report where the authors say that these kind of operations will probably never stop these clandestine interventions of range from support to civil resistance movements to convert paramilitary operations to large unconventional warfare efforts in support of conventional military campaigns even presidents who prides their election looked upon such activity with disfavor found themselves compelled to use it after taking office president trump certainly inherited a an untenable situation because of the initially because of the influence of president george w. bush and then by the activities by president obama who actively with the turkish saudi and utter government supported radical islamic jihadist groups and

particularly in a bold of the creation and rise of isis diet the islamic state and the us and the world in that region is paying the price for that today. and the last american country venezuela does appear to be another possible candidate for a u.s. intervention the person venezuela's opposition leader has appointed as his ambassador to the u.s. has sent a letter to the american southern command requesting a meeting for strategic and operational planning caracas has branded the move as an invitation to plot a military intervention in venezuela where the venezuelan government has also condemned the police raid on its embassy in washington d.c. is a violation of international law offices try to expel activists who claim they are defending the mission from illegal seizure police arrived at the compound and issued innovation order to the activists most of the activists left after that all the most stayed inside arguing that officers had failed to present and the official

arrest was. only. a little rest more. general to. say they will probably try to get the protesters to spend more than a month at the embassy in a bid to prevent you staff from moving in the u.s. who are serving in this interest government to leave the site is it recognizes opposition leader who is venezuela's legitimate president has now sent his own ambassador to the u.s. to take up residence there is before the police raid the authorities cut them off at the embassy in an attempt to make the protesters leave why don't you support and save you the pies are the ones violating the law well before handing protestors and of action notice in person police posted one on the embassy stores it stated that the u.s. recognizes why those staff is official venezuelan representatives and that the activists must leave the embassy investigative journalist max blumenthal things

u.s. authorities are being overly aggressive. well there are 4 embassy protectors still inside they refused to leave after 3 others left today a notice was placed on the door written in verdad font signed by no one which claimed that one carlos vecchio were the legitimate representatives of the venezuelan embassy but it wasn't clear this was posted by any federal authorities secret service entered the embassy everyone thought they were going to arrest those inside and instead they left closed the door behind them and those 4 embassy protectors are still there so there could be an embassy protection agreement between venezuela's government and a friendly country which would allow that country to move in as a custodian for the embassy and allow switzerland to take over the u.s. embassy in caracas and this would mean a deescalation of the conflict and the possible nail in the coffin to for go i go i don't know if that's going to take place i know there are negotiations underway but

it's very telling that the embassy protectors were allowed to stay inside for the federal authorities to enter venezuelans embassy is a violation of the vienna conventions our article $22.00 and it is it could be considered an act of war. now that we can a giant monsanto has improved in a previously scandal for french media that plane that the company is gathering information on influential anti pesticide activists with that that consent french authorities have now started to probe into that complaint by the newspaper. there's a lot to this something to be learned that secret files being kept on hundreds of people there's graphic it's from 26 these mapping now because the actors and the debate on the life of france were distributed according to. the french papers claim the so-called one santé file dates back to 2016 it contains names of

$200.00 people they do include journalists lawmakers and politicians who have been critical of the company's practices among the ledges the list was drawn up to sway the views of those against the use of life a state based pesticides monsanto was bought by the chemical giant by a last year and a $63000000000.00 deal by itself has apologized for the incident and has now opened its own probe into the case that in the at an environmentalist from the future generations group was one of those on the list. yes official in direct recession of the doors here contains information on our going to zation and its head we're concerned about that it also has private information obtained by monsanto in any case it is known that these procedures are illegal there is no law that allows collection and storage of private data on people our organization will file

a lawsuit to at least shed light on whether they have any other and published data we're also concerned about the fact that the list mentions private persons politicians journalists who are pressured to support the company to secure its place in the market of compounds which by the way are considered to be carcinogenic in fact today the company has a quite negative image which is fair weather was bad press 2 for buy on tuesday after a california court ruling it ordered monsanto to pay $2000000000.00 in damages to a couple who claim monsanto a weed killer called roundup gave them cancer it is the biggest claim against monsanto so far the weed killer contains a chemical called life aside when used on plants in crops it can end up in food in the air and also drinking water and several studies have shown that it can cause cancer however by air and monsanto insist the roundup with killer is safe but those who brought the cancer case against them disagree. really let it be

the one song to sunday morning and then the skies are made to attention the 1st. song on its. head and there's a. little. bit into this economy has been doing corporate malfeasance for 45 years and it's about time they got held to account and this was a clear statement to every single person in the world they are monsanto have to cut it out and do right by people like the way it's you're watching international back with more nice. we've got an amazing situation developing here in america one of our politicians

has it openly admitted to congress that the u.s. dollar is that threat from. after the previous stage of my career was over everyone wondered what i was going to do next about different groups on one hand it is logical to go from fields where everything is familiar on the other i wanted a new challenge and a fresh perspective i'm used to surprising. you. i'm going to talk about football not for you or else you can think i was going to do it. by the way what is the flooding here.

in our society ship sent to pick up weapons and europe has been hounded by protests along its journey and fronts activists succeeded in preventing it from collecting its cargo. could be used against civilians in yemen our french flag has been projected on to the vessel in spain however madrid claims that the ship left port carrying material that will not be used in a combat capacity countries are under increasing pressure over their arms sales to saudi arabia as shell had been reports. well understood international has lost it several european union states saying they have failed to poll their obligations in regards to the on. trade treaty because they're selling weapons to saudi arabia

live with them that will likely be used in the war in yemen the bar has been bouncing off european ports like a pinball this is a serious test of the country's resolve to uphold the obligations on the arms trade treaty and you common position on arms exports several states have food this test in the space of just a few days now the concern is that some of these weapons could be being used on the front line in the war in yemen and could be being used against civilians now that yemen conflicts being ongoing out since 2014 around 10000 people have lost their lives in the conflict and millions have been pushed to the brink of starvation it's been described by the united nations as being the world's worst humanitarian disaster and the concern from amnesty international is that if it is possible that the weapons being sold by e.u. member states to saudi arabia are being used in any way to perpetuate war crimes or

to violate international law they're not means that they have broken the obligation when it comes to the arms trade treaty the voyage reminds us that they prefer to allow lucrative global arms trade to continue to operate behind a veil of secrecy well amnesty points out that is saudi cargo ship has been making the rounds at several poor european states for the last week or so we know that it was able to dock it and twerp in belgium and it was able to receive a supply of missions there and since then it's tried and failed to visit several other european ports and now we do know that the belgian foreign minister has acknowledged that there are concerns that these sales and this is what he had to say going to be you know you would be good to suspend on the deal. ruth to saudi arabia if it was shown that had been used on going conflict such as in yemen which

case the regional government must make that decision with mobile missile now here in france we had confirmation from the defense minister that's flawless poly that that saudi cargo ship was also due to dock in the port of laughter in northern france and was due to receive a shipment of arms from france as part of the sales to saudi arabia and now this is what she had to say last week in regards to babs. arms delivery according to greenman 2 issues made a few years ago well that news was met with protests at the port of of when it was announced last week that's because there was a leaked investigation in the last month a show which alleges that the french government has been made aware by secretive military notes that weapons sold by france society arabia could have been used on the front line in yemen and could have been used against civilians and that

provoked lots of anger from people who wanted to stop that shipment from going ahead now president michael also spoke about this last week saying that he had received confirmation from riyadh that any arms france sold to saudi arabia wouldn't be used in this way but despite that because of the processed those on's were not able to be loaded on the ship and then it moved on its way attempting to visit ports in spain and now on its way to italy but the controversy continues and many human rights organizations are unhappy that any of these sales are taking place in the 1st place what they've called on is for european union states to now halt those sales to saudi arabia off their arms. there were earlier the french defense minister did say there was no conclusive. evidence that french weapons were killing civilians in yemen saudi arabia itself denies targeting civilians

deliberately claiming that its focus is fighting who the rebels who sees yemenis capital in 2040. 4th street has suffered the biggest selloff since the beginning of the year amid america's ongoing trade war with china after beijing imposed import taxes on u.s. goods worth $60000000000.00 in response to fresh terrorist from washington well on friday washington high tariffs on $200000000000.00 of chinese goods that's the latest tit for tat exchange between these in countries came after trade talks failed to produce a deal china has already imposed levies on imports from the u.s. worth $110000000000.00 the latest measure targets $5000.00 goods ranging from coffee beef beer and also television sets president trump said that despite china's retaliation the u.s. is in a strong position. i love the position we're in so our farmers will be very happy

our manufacturers will be very happy and our government is very happy because we take it in tens of billions of dollars i think it's working out very well again we do much less business with china than they do with us doesn't says that america is actually benefiting from the trade war with china by cashing in on import taxes although his chief economic advisor seem to disagree but in and says china doesn't china it pays the terrorists they may suffer consequences but it's u.s. businesses and u.s. consumers who pay correct yes to some extent and you know i don't disagree with that again both sides all sides will suffer and there's. economics peter earl did tell us that this dispute with china could do he damage to the u.s. economy. i think trump has has staked a claim in the mind of his supporters to be this great negotiator and and they you

know i don't i think he believes on some level that he can win a trade war when the fact is that in almost every historical instance that i can think of trade wars tend to result in very be reasoned losing but no winning the u.s. and china have the largest g.d.p. is no world there are 2 of the biggest traders so i can't think of a country in the world and probably not a consumer or very few at least who won't be affected adversely by this trade war the way to resolve this would be for both of the nations to get other way and that each individual firm and consumer firm an individual who is trading whether it's between the u.s. china or any other country pursue their individual interests i mean that's what this is about it's an individual assessment whether or not you'd be taking advantage and trying to be like to say that the u.s. is a trade deficit next to and that's a tremendous mis. representation as a matter of fact the u.s. does have a trade deficit with china claims of goods but it has a massive trade surplus in-service unfortunately there's

a lot more often this that can become can come out of this it's going to have and in the morning here in moscow thanks for watching out he was back again at the top of. what politicians do listen to them. put themselves on the line they get accepted over checked. so if you want to be president. i want to be. to do i think the press is like them before 3 of them can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters in that. area. it's up to us to see on his attorney one name for you. and one close the loop to.

know. which of. those are real you. guys to know people who supposed to have scrimmage we could see that it was true. that the thought of you. if you had left the finish that you give. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy to let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic development only mostly i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk.

this is a kaiser report where on the floor of the magical crypt conference here in new york city the 1st annual. conference with fluffy pony well. no charlie that said these guys rock and they're rocking new york city this week now we've got an amazing situation developing air america one of our politicians has it openly admitted in congress that the u.s. dollar is that threat. i do want to again point out you'll hear some peeping in the background that's because they're like setting up lights in the whole venue so we're like so exclusive here the kaiser report we're allowed in before everybody else gets here by brad sherman he's

a congressman from california who represents los angeles and i have a little clip of him here i look for colleagues to join with me in introducing a bill to outlaw cryptocurrency. purchases by americans so that we nip this in the bud in part because. of our international power comes from the fact that the dollars the standard unit. of international finance in transactions clearing through the new york fed is critical for major oil and other transactions and it is the announced purpose of the supporters of crypto currency to take that power away from us to put us in a position where the most significant say sions we have on iran for example would become.
