12:00 pm
time i want to follow up on a couple of statements you said 1st for for mr lavrov you mentioned that spike the disagreements with iran that there is a possibility of certain agreements on iran going forward could explain what what you see in common of us in iran where you can go senator if i could ask you about the mysterious incidents in the u.a.e. regarding the oil tankers have you pinpointed responsibility for that and if i can follow up on your statement about the election you said that there are things that russia could do to show that election interference is a thing of the past what are those things what do you what would you like russia to do thank you very much. this is regarding iran and the joint a comprehensive plan of action. to settle the iranian nuclear problem and i hope that reason will prevail and. you know the rumors we've had 28120000 army of u.s.
12:01 pm
troops moving towards iran and things were discussed today i hope that these rumors are groundless because the region as we know it right now is already overstrained with all kinds of conflict situations and also like to say we've also discussed the . palestine israeli conflict and and i hope that when we're talking about searching for a political solution to iran's issues. that we can make it so that it does not degree to a military scenario and this is the task of the diplomats. and i i think i could see that the u.s. the u.s. also wants to do things peacefully. and the situation is very difficult and we believe it is a mistake on part of the us too. withdrawal from the g.c.
12:02 pm
below a and b. measures undertaken by the us and the sanctions and that prohibits any kinds of business with iran buying oil or trading with iran i hope that we use europeans together with our european colleagues and with china which years ago you and other members of the world will be able to stay in contact with the you asked and search continue to search for ways out of the crisis because so far we've been waiting for the down the road on this war. for what's happening and also i would like to make a small comment on the issue you just addressed to mr. russia's suppose that interference in the us elections i've just. handed to mind a copy of an article which you said. that was published in the us in $1807.00
12:03 pm
and it's sad in this article that the soviet union would try to affect or somehow interfere in the upcoming $88.00 us president elections coming up and it was too sad. for you were to do business with. this also this things article even mentions donald trump as a businessman as a promising businessman but speaking of accusations until we see any facts or any evidence we can not have a grown up conversation about this because as we can see there is no facts no one has been ever able to present any kind of evidence and we on our part have proposed that on many occasions to restore contacts on cyber security which is with the help of which we will be able to resort. any kinds of misunderstandings between
12:04 pm
russia and the us and protecting both russian and u.s. . good good services and governments from cyber attacks now as for the. campaign for electoral campaign in the u.s. we had a channel to react with the u.s. to react. to cyber threats we've had this since october 26th seen when the democratic administration in the us who was the 1st to raise this issue this was until january 20th 17 there was. actual conversations actual traffic coming through these channel that we've had and. we have proposed some time ago when we saw these accusations against russia regarding this.
12:05 pm
interference we proposed to. restart this conversation this channel. to action not to actually publish. the results of our conversations and our interactions through this channel and 2016 hours of work but the publication of this data was blocked by the us although we believe that making these things public has. helped alleviate a number of. your groundless accusations we've been hearing hearing against. your heard your work this is just a fact that i would i would like you to note i'd like you to remember. that we. are willing and able to cooperate with our u.s. counterparts regarding cyber issues and cyber security and this has nothing to do
12:06 pm
with any kind of ideology or any subversion and. this has nothing to do with internal domestic u.s. policy. and 11 more thing here excuse me. i also. handed over to mike in an official memorandum sort of question that talks about the british facts. the facts of us interfering in russia's domestic policies local politics including the. the so-called law of. supporting ukraine and it is so. the u.s. state secretary is supposed to support ukraine through russia.
12:07 pm
through organizations and institutions based in russia and as this is an official document in the us it is part of u.s. law that. prescribe the u.s. state secretary to work through russia. to help ukraine russia and we know how difficult it is to work between our 2 to work out the problems between our 2 countries and we both want to resolve many of the issues that we have. and. that we can continue our conversation and our diplomats will be able to work. in an open manner assured on the basis of the vienna accords and those are slow to and we hope that there will be nobody interfering in the in this conversation in this political conversations.
12:08 pm
and i'd like. to remind you how 933 president. roosevelt and. russia's ambassador libyan officials exchange notes where the diplomatic notes where they agreed to. the show that exclude any kind of interference. in domestic affairs of each country and this was actually launched and initiated by the us so i hope that we can proceed in this fashion can see we have some disagreements on this issue i promise not to go back to history from the early thirty's. but i made clear to foreign minister lavrov as we've made clear for the past months that interference in america. elections is unacceptable. the russians were engaged in that in 2028 would put our relationship in an even worse place than it is then and
12:09 pm
encourage them not to do that we would we would not tolerate that. you know we've said this not only about the russians but about other countries as well our elections are important and sacred and they must be kept free and fair and with no outside country interfering in those elections your 1st question was about what we know about the attacks that took place. united arab emirates i don't have any information i can share with you yeah. about the nature of what took place there. i were working diligently to get answers to what caused those. those ships to have the problems that today. but that was just a risk to play games such as france thank you for attending. we've
12:10 pm
just been listening to a press conference between mike compare the u.s. secretary of state and sergei lavrov for his russian counterpart just to give you a little bit of information of what they talked about they had on venezuela syria terrorism the middle east the iran nuclear deal of course and ukraine just going to give you a few of the highlights from what they spoke about when talking about venezuela sergey lavrov said that the people of venezuela should be the ones to decide their future and there should be a responsible dialogue taking place in that discussion now my pump said that when it comes to venezuela there are a number of disagreements between the 2 countries he says that material must go again that that's the united states position and will remain that way and hopes that russia's. support from a daro would actually and is saying that all countries need to get out of
12:11 pm
interfering in the the invent as well as affairs that they need to have free and fair elections not influenced by any other country when talking about iran which was of course the top of the agenda that most people were looking for to to see what they discussed again they said that there were a number of disagreements on that front. that america will continue to put pressure on the country whereas sergey lavrov said that he hopes that they could achieve agreements the 2 countries could achieve agreements when it comes to iran saying that reason hoping that reason will prevail and that rumors of u.s. troops in the region will actually turn out to be false. did say that he feels that he sees the u.s. wants a peaceful resolution to that conflict to the crisis and that was something that was echoed by pompei oh he said that the u.s. fundamentally does not seek a war with the country they also both touched on meddling when it comes to election meddling alleged election meddling and the united states was pumpin saying that
12:12 pm
there are things russia could do to prove that. such actions are a thing of the past that interference in the elections are unacceptable whereas sergei lavrov repeated the saying that evidence has not been put forward no facts have been forward when it comes to russian meddling in the united states elections and hopes that they can reinstate channels that were closed due to those accusations. for more on this we can now go to live in sochi. to talk about the talks now the pair have had plenty to talk about what more can you tell us. well as they said and both of them here that the discussions were very frank and honest something that sergey lavrov said beforehand he hoped they would be and they also spoke about a whole range of issues so many and so little time but early on we heard we heard
12:13 pm
cautious notes of optimism before the discussions started. pretty much most of the external mccarthy we see there are certain suspicions and prejudice from both sides but it's not a win win scenario for us just mutual mistrust u.s. and russian security and causes concern around the globe so it's time for a new and more responsible approach to our relations and mutual perceptions we're ready to do that if my u.s. colleagues show reciprocation towards that i'm here today because president trump is committed to improving this relationship. as as i think you said we have differences we each country will protect its own interests look out for its own interests of its people. but it's not it's not just that we were adversaries on every issue well that turned out to pretty much as they wanted as they expected there are no illusions relations between russia and the united states and frankly
12:14 pm
speaking. most of the channels communication channels be the military financial political they've been shut years now following the allegations of meddling and you know disagreements over almost every issue that there is but now they're talking now the united states has said that it is important to reopen restart relations with russia russia saying that it's open to the same thing that it wants to improve relations with the united states and that the. 2 sides need to find issues that they can work together on and they discuss the almost every major crisis in the world now from venezuela they said outright that their differences enormous that they don't see eye to eye on this issue russia saying that it supports madeira because he is the president of venezuela and nothing has changed the united states saying that. has failed that he should go that he should leave
12:15 pm
but both sides somehow insisting that. themselves should decide he. said that russia and everybody else iran. cuba china everybody in the days when to try to meddle in venezuela should leave russia and said that america isn't going to get democracy establish democracy in venezuela by use of force by threats of regular. military intervention alluding to regime change because that has never succeeded beyond the 2003 invasion of iraq the 2011 invasion of libya look at those countries now said sergey lavrov not exactly. beacons of democracy but both sides said that despite their enormous differences they're going to continue to talk. i suppose you'll agree that is the important part that they will continue to talk rather than do their own thing and busy let
12:16 pm
things come to a head on iran same thing they've agreed that they have huge differences but again agreed to talk russia saying that the best course of action is the nuclear deal of 2015 it provides the framework all that work that went into it all the effort it gives us a system whereby it's verifiable and the international community can verify that iran is abiding by the. diehl the united states saying no that isn't enough the united states saying adding additional additional basically fact is that the iranian nuclear deal it isn't just the nuclear weapons it's also iran's behavior support for groups that the united states doesn't like interferences they said meddling in local affairs in local come conflicts the united states wants that to stop not just to be able to verify that iran is abiding by its nuclear commitments
12:17 pm
but again they've said that they will continue to work the united states stressing that it doesn't want a conflict war with iran regardless of all these rumors about 120000 american soldiers potentially being sent an entire army being sent to the middle east to think against iran they also spoke about north korea both sides much closer here than on the other issue saying that with regards to north korea they remain committed to seeing the peninsula denuclearized they want to see north korea give up its nuclear weapons give up its nuclear ambitions and to be able to verify that that is happening and on that topic they said that. in comparison to everything else they've been able to make solid progress there's been actual work done on that front also in meddling. little change there the united states saying it wants to
12:18 pm
talk to the russians and wants to make sure that meddling is a thing of the past the russian sergey lavrov replying with what russia has said since the onset there has been no meddling no proof you've shown no evidence of any sort of meddling anything that we've done wrong how can there be discussion talks when you telling us what we did in writing in concrete form but again they've agreed here to do. to continue to talk to sort of try to establish common ground and try to improve relations because the meddling issue is really something that has been holding anchoring down relations they haven't been able to get them running since then on this front sergey lavrov said that you know in the aftermath of the release of the mueller report perhaps now the more radical factions that have insisted on collusion and meddling perhaps now they'll be marginalized perhaps
12:19 pm
now relations can be improved. also. on restarting communication between the 2 sides as i said earlier political financial military almost every communication channel has been dollars for a number of years now neither side being willing to talk to each other willing to talk to the other without feeling of there being mutual respect on that front they've agreed that donald trump has the relations to be improved for work to be done the russian president said he's open to it so there's a lot to look forward to but make no mistake there are a lot of hurdles ahead as well later today secretary of state will be having a conversation with vladimir putin who i believe is imminently who has just arrived in sochi so perhaps we'll learn something more after that as well.
12:20 pm
thank you for bringing us the latest on. the son of israel's pm netanyahu has hit out of germany over what he claimed was berlin's funding of anti israel non-governmental organizations that's despite the german foreign minister recently restating the country's support for israel. 70 years ago today on the 11th of may 1949 israel was admitted to the un as a fool member on this occasion the federal government would like to read to raid the german is stance also in the un shoulder to shoulder with israel who security right to exist must never be called into question by anyone knew where continue to support israel's legitimate interests to help strengthen its representation in the un and do our utmost to pose an attempt to isolate or do it. it will be nice if you stop interfering in our internal business and stop funding hundreds of frantically leftwing n.g.o.s in the israel the seek its destruction use the hundreds of
12:21 pm
millions of euros you use for this to from hospitals schools and churches in germany a recent report by israel's strategic affairs ministry claims germany and other european countries are funding a so-called anti-semitic boycott campaign groups these have been linked to terrorist organizations including hamas and the popular front for the liberation of palestine the paper also noted e.u. monies funneled to the palestinian authority or finding their way into pension funds for terrorists the german chancellor is also faced claims of hypocrisy despite her consistent backing of the sovereignty and security of israel. i strongly condemn all the anti jew or anti semitic crimes and acts not least those which were recently shown at the pro palestinian demonstrations masked as criticism of the politics of the state of israel but were in fact the one and only representation of hate against jewish people. it goes with us and i believe that
12:22 pm
the european union and also germany as a state member of the e.u. should try to pursue a realistic approach to the threat which terrorism poses especially for israel. we shot you reject with the rain leadership we stand by our commitment for the security of israel and he said this very clearly and unequivocally to iran at every point in time. to discuss this further let's bring in diplomatic analysts i den ronen we're very welcome to the program now if these accusations are true is germany trying to wear 2 hats here backing israel but also funding anti israeli groups. well the thinking is quite if i would describe it my way then i would put it at the least israel germany relations are quite a big us and the west it's kind of the most hypocritical show in town because even if we go on we just not to back far in time merkel herself recalled herself
12:23 pm
has voted at least 16 times in the un against israel merkel herself defies 7 trump resolution to recognize resulin while trying to convince other eastern european nations not to follow trump miracle herself she's also trying to. defy trump sanctions over iran so that's only merkel ourself and even by the way the. the german ambassador to the german ambassador to the to the un christopher haas didn't do you know what he just stated only previously he made his own supposed moral equivalence is that of hemis rockets which were fire on to our civilian population deliberately a war crime that is just supposed to be compared into israel's ongoing
12:24 pm
construction in the settlements that is a totally different issue we can definitely discuss that but yeah according to your question yeah germany is trying to undermine israel. solving 3 and they think we're a bunch of fools no we're pretty smart we're definitely way smarter than she thinks she thinks we are and what would we expect other than saying resist stand by israel what he respects other than that but reality is pretty much. the other way around how can your netanyahu be so confident in claiming these n.g.o.s are radical left wing. ok ok that's a good point will 1st even though i'm not sure netanyahu is an attorney but we got our eye on sources even regardless of him so check this one out let me talk about they're like there's a serious of so many the most radical. anti
12:25 pm
israel is really shameful shameful or should i admit that n.g.o.s who claim they are for human rights who claim they are for the palestinians but in fact they promote all those bikers against israel and try even some of them even to put it to call for our troops to prosecute is really top officials into the international court of justice now as for the claims that he a year made let me just name 2 very prominent organizations one of which is called that cell and another of which is called breaking the silence and regardless of this question ma'am please let me let me please deliver a point which is i think very very important extremely important for the whole for the whole of the world to be aware of regarding us the jewish people unfortunately we got a dark corner in our 3000 year old resume a bunch of some very few yet very vocal self hating jews they will
12:26 pm
do anything within their capability to basically to undermine israel to hurt israel any way possible this is going all the way back to time immemorial it has started with a jew named joseph was played to use 2000 years ago when he was going to bootlicking to the roman conquerors on the land it went on even in the holocaust did you know that there were some jews cooperating with the nats ease and today would have those sort of jews where we in israel we used to name them although anti semites basically meaning self-hate. consuming sort of jews breaking the silence is one of them. but so is one of them let me i'm very happy to do this p.r. for those 2 organizations not exactly the same the sort of p.r. they thought off hug i remember this name he is but selim c.e.o.
12:27 pm
and he went on that the beyond that to the un to basically to rat on his own country on his own people and accusing his own country of committing war crimes against humanity as for breaking the silence similar accusations were sounded by person named dean. of he sure i'm sorry i'm afraid that we have run out of time to . time i done wrote in diplomatic analyst thank you so much for joining us on the program. that's all for this hour i think you so much for joining us.
12:28 pm
seem wrong. but. just don't. let me. get to shape out the consequences. and in detroit equals betrayal. when something find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. as i see on his attorney for you. or anyone who knows a little. bit more which. is a real you. got to know people it's you posting it's we need to see what's good. that's the time to get. if you have to. finish.
12:29 pm
what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. spearing dramatic to follow through the only really i'm going to resist i don't see that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. more there i didn't. spend saturday night jallow i just got up they had enough
12:30 pm
problems to presume to be a focus of. our story about. me they do not know much. of. anything a way he and that's the way bush another way of thought about it or. a way it was only important isn't. it enough to end it. here in senegal is comfortable death comes to standards of beauty compete against each other while not true beauty is of course a general standard worldwide. bleach plays a big role in the beauty process. their own balls go up and do you post on the phone key i mean by.
