11:01 am
this is an uncomfortable day for killing. you're watching our changing national coming to you live from the russian capital where it's just turned 6 pm welcome to the program. it's the 2nd day of the u.s. president's state visit to the u.k. donald trump and prime minister theresa may spoke at a press conference highlighting the issues they discussed in a meeting earlier those included trade iran huawei and of course. reports. it was in a very grand sassing the foreign and commonwealth office and we saw donald trump and to resume a war king bed together and they both praised the special relationship between the u.k. and the u.s. and they also spoke about the post trade deal that they hope will be calm down
11:02 am
between the 2 countries really talking it up donald trump referred to it as a phenomenal trade deal that it would increase the value of the trade between the 2 countries by at least $33.00 times he said donald trump was asked about greg's it and he certainly weighed in and gave the journalists his opinion on how that's going really predicted what was going to happen so move you remember that prediction was a strong prediction made a certain location and developed and we were opening the day before it happened and i thought it was going to happen because of immigration more than anything else but probably it happens for a lot of reasons but i would say yeah i would think that it will happen and it probably should happen he did praise to reason may's negotiating skills he said that she does the withdrawal agreement for the next leader and it did seem like his praise actually of the prime minister was quite heartfelt i will also questions to
11:03 am
donald trump of course about the london city con they've had quite a high profile spot because of a stone cold loser on twitter because the deep end and comparing policies to fascist ones and in this press conference he said he doesn't think the column's been a very good man he said he hasn't done very well on crime in the british capital also dropped a bit of a bunch of when it comes to. he said that the leader of the opposition had to ask for a meeting with the u.s. president and his team but that donald trump had refused and speaking of the protests when donald trump was asked about that his response was the. protests far as the protests so i have to tell you because i commented on it yesterday we left the prime minister the queen the royal family there were thousands of people in the streets cheering and even coming over today there were
11:04 am
thousands of people cheering and then i heard that there were protests i said where are the protests i don't see any protests i did see a small protest today when i came 1st ball so a lot of it is fake news i hate to say quite astounding really i can tell you i've been on the ground talking to the protest is take a listen to what some of them had to say his quote of the problem has to do with both feet and he's supporting those making the situation more to the house playing baseball during this from these protests show that certainly is just crazy day one day to be. a day without we in the debilitated place is pretty good but he says that he will. get the child has a. point to make do. the. things that he did it is awfully embarrassing for this country and i feel ashamed
11:05 am
to mason my friend fighting. donald trump at the press conference also weighed in on the way the chinese telecoms that the u.k. government has so far refused to rule out of its 5 g. network it still considering using them but don't there was sort of some anticipation beforehand that he might threaten this intelligence sharing relationship with the u.k. and the u.s. had. full victim if the u.k. goes a different way to the u.s. but you didn't issue any threats of any kind he said that he's confident that the u.k. and the u.s. will end up on the same page when it comes to walk away overall despite. the couple of sound bite that we've heard this was the u.s. president really really on his best behavior while on this trip and one gets a sense that this is a trip that he was rather delighted to be on to morrow he's off to the d.-day
11:06 am
commemorations in portsmouth with the queen which reason may with prince charles will be will photo opportunities but i expect to reason may will be breathing a sigh of relief this afternoon because the boss bulk of this visit is now done and dusted of course there's always donald trump's tweets and maybe some interviews that you might be giving behind the scenes to. race based genocide is how a canadian government report has been in decades of violence against the country's indigenous population the study was released on monday at a ceremony and prime minister justin trudeau who was present accepted mistakes have been made but his failure to use the word genocide so the pm buckled he really needed the kids. indigenous women and girls across canada have disappeared suffered violence or been killed. and our justice system has failed.
11:07 am
this is an uncomfortable day for canada. titled reclaiming power and place the report took almost 3 years to write the inquiry heard more than 2000 witness testimonies and claims the canadian justice system is based on the values of a stellar colonial society failing to include indigenous concepts of justice now the probe states the dust or disappearance of thousands of women have likely gone on record and it myth that no one knows an exact number although estimates put the figure out around 4000 the report includes multiple accounts of victims and their relatives here's one of their stories i was he checking and this was literally just a month and a half before my sister loretta was murdered she was texting me she was like what are you doing delilah this is not just one abrasion
11:08 am
a woman or girl this is being considered a national epidemic. we heard from the chair of indigenous governance at canada's ryerson university she says the state has done nothing to address the problem. there's a whole bunch of really you know problematic criminal activity as regards to indigenous women and girls and it's been unaddressed for all of these decades until this inquiry on a light on it i am calling on all canadians and in fact other countries around the world to put political pressure on both our federal government and all of our provincial governments to to do something and to actually investigate state actors who are complicit or directly involved in the murders exploitations and disappearances of indigenous women and girls this state has done nothing about it so they've been very complicit in the ongoing sexualized violence and murders of
11:09 am
indigenous women and girls but canadians haven't been able to put all of those pieces together until now. the russian foreign ministry has denied donald trump tweeted claim that moscow had informed the u.s. it was pulling its military advisors out of venezuela the words of trump about russia pulling out its people from venezuela raises questions about the quality of his advisors we have notified anyone this is fake the wall street journal had earlier reported that russian personnel had been withdrawn something awful strongly denied by moscow but all the details here's an interrogator. well this is gone from an accusation of article from the dismissal of that accusation all article to a little bit of confusion thrown in on sunday the wall street journal they published an article saying that russian military and technical personnel had left on my ass from venezuela reducing the numbers from a 1000 to just a few dozen and the reason they came for the gave up the exodus was that there were
11:10 am
a lack of contracts and that moscow it apparently found out that there was a lack of funds to pay a russian high tech military hardware corporation called rostik now have come out and dismissed the article completely this is what they said the figures provided in the piece by the wall street journal have been exaggerated tens of times the numbers of our staff there has remained for the same for many years now someone else's decided to join in us present on track during his state visit to the u.k. he's tweeted his favorite medium this is what he said russia has informed us that they have removed most of their people from venezuela so as you can see he seemed pretty confident that those personnel had left venezuela well the kremlin has come out and spoke and they've said that there were no official statements about the withdrawal there were never any plans about the withdrawal the staff is still working there so how could there possibly be a statement about withdrawal here's what press corps said. from the russians
11:11 am
regarding the withdrawal of russian specialists from venezuela and there could never have been any it seems this information was taken from the media and the kremlin is assuming the trams tweets are based on newspaper sources but as far as the russians are concerned this matter is now closed. we go back to our top story donald trump's state visit to the u.k. today he met with outgoing prime minister theresa may along with business leaders for ally reaction we go to american foreign policy expert at the university of liverpool dr michael hopkins now during his meeting which recently and business leaders trump spoke of a fear insubstantial deal with the u.k. after a break said but given his track record when it comes to trade is that a promise he can live up to. i think it's highly unlikely that a very quick trade there will be achieved there are all kinds of problems we've seen in the course of the conversations the press conference today one of the big
11:12 am
issues is whether or not the british will agree to an opening the health care market allowing american health care producers to have access to the british market and i don't think at this stage the british are willing to concede that which would be an obstacle to a daylight hug. now on the issue of drugs that do you think those comments will give fuel to a more hardline approach to brecht's it from whoever ends up coming after me. i don't tell you the surprising thing about the press conference is trump always in press conferences speaks fairly warmly about his hosts and he spoke very warmly about trees in may and even about her attempts to get a break deal on the basis of that you might even think he was willing to go along with some kind of variation on the existing deal he's also been very cagey about not being too close to any of the what you might call. zealots in the cabinet who
11:13 am
are trying to become conservative leader so i don't think there's any indication from this visit that there's going to going to be encouragement for a heart of bricks that well at the same time trump did say that he thought boris johnson would make for a good pm what do you make of that comment coming from him and what does that mean for boris johnson himself. well the interesting thing is that in the press conference he repeated how he thought he'd be a good prime minister but he also then listed 2 other people who we thought would would probably be a appropriate he mentioned jeremy hunt who was in the audience at the time and he also said spoke about michael govan made a joke about it asking jeremy hunt whether he thought michael gove might make a good prime minister and on the case of boris johnson boris johnson had the opportunity to meet trump on a one to one and didn't do so he decided that he needed to go to hustings to try and persuade conservative m.p.'s to vote for him as the future leader so i think
11:14 am
both sides are being a little cagey about overcommitting themselves what do you make of trump's thing that jeremy corbin had actually requested a meeting with him but that he denied doing that. well my understanding is that jeremy corbin's office have conceded that they did indeed make a request for the meeting but the trump turned him down and it's not really surprising if you're the leader of the opposition you refused to attend a banquet with the president and then you join some protest movements against the president and afterwards then say dear mr president could i come and speak to you it's not surprising that trump said i don't want to see him he may well in the future need to speak to called him but i understand why the attitude was adopted by trump in this instance what do you think that this visit means for that special relationship that us charmed and theresa may i mentioned during the press
11:15 am
conference. one of the problems with this term special relationship is it was an invention of winston churchill in the 2nd world war to persuade the americans to how the british and it became special in a number of. areas that aren't really noticed by the public particularly in intelligence and defense matters but most people think of it in terms of relationship between president and prime minister churchill and roosevelt candidate millon reagan and thatcher are now and may and i don't think they have a particularly close relationship i think they get on well together but it is special still at the intelligence level although there are issues that could cause trouble with. american foreign policy expert at the university of liverpool liverpool dr michael hopkins thank you for joining us on the program today. we go to germany next where people have decided to work it doesn't fall dirty with the

jewish community amid rising anti-semitism that's after this short break. seems wrong. to me. to shape out. active. and engaged equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race is spearing dramatic development only closely i'm going to resist i
11:17 am
don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. have you noticed. that building up everywhere is true or not. it's actually happening. welcome back news website the daily breeze has named and shamed a man it claims is behind a video mocking u.s. house speaker nancy pelosi making her look intoxicated. and i tell this to the room when he came in and made that statement that he walked in and i tell this to the room when he came in and made that statement that he walked out i went looking for
11:18 am
the russian troll behind the drunk palosi viral video hoax turns out he's an eye tenor and forklift operator from the bronx who's been secretly running hard right news outlets across social media for years also not russian. however the man in question denies making the video and the daily beast has come under fire for outing him the previously anonymous labor of the daily beast maliciously exposed as punishment for having bad politics denies he even committed the thought crime of making the pelosi mocking video insisting he just posted it who cares his politics are wrong ruin his life when journalists engage in ducks enough everyone whose politics they dislike is a good for democracy daily beast editorial meeting whatever each citizen can we docs to ruin their life because they lean conservative well there is this guy who drives a forklift during the day and makes means
11:19 am
a night now liberal media outlets to have some form when it comes to outing people on the right side of the political spectrum as scale up and explain. it was not a vast foreign conspiracy to undermine nancy pelosi is reputation after all it was just a guy from the bronx and the fact that mainstream media gave this so much attention just one person with video and software tricking people i'm seeing a lot of people on twitter saying you already are responsible for outing 1st of all i think you're out of them self you know by attaching his name to several fake news sites but then push the video wait a 2nd doesn't c.n.n. have a bit of a record when it comes to outing the sources of memes and putting them in modern day stocks the video shared by president trump was apparently 1st posted by a writ user who goes by this online name c.n.n. is not publishing house. name because he's a private citizen who has issued an extensive statement of an apology showed his
11:20 am
remorse in addition he said he statements could serve as an example to all of us not to do the same sin and reserves the right to publish his identity should any of that change it sounds a little bit like a mafia shakedown we sure hate for something to happen to you if you make the wrong move and who can forget c.n.n. i tracked down from supporter those were russians not russians i don't go with the russian that on me was russian i have nothing to do with the russians well that apparently you know you now yes these investigators are quite proud of themselves for tracking down average americans who engage in cyber activism and distort facts however you would think they'd be a little more outraged when actual news organizations do this kind of thing right like when a local seattle news station distorted footage of president trump or like want to statement from president trump was taken out of context to give the impression that he was calling all immigrants animals these are people. these are animals in
11:21 am
reality he was pretty obviously referring only to the members of criminal gangs at this point mainstream media is not going after its colleagues who engage in biased reporting or distort. instead it's got its eyes on average americans who make the wrong move online what we're seeing this is not journalism these are hit pieces these are people who have taken it personally they're not a part of the journalistic desire to find the truth to investigate to talk to people to have multiple sources now no no no this is about going after people who may dare to be either supportive of trump may be considered raises drawer or whatever it is it's become personal it's become lynch mobs it's become inciting a riot anybody out there this is for you a lesson if you think it's funny if you want to put up some that dared now amee mcgann's trump please we will help you we will promoted we will be tweet you all

day long. with anti-semitism on the rise in germany berlin has tried to show solidarity with the jewish community by urging people to wear it traditional orthodox skullcap but the move has not been welcomed by all jews as artie's maria finish not explains. to wear or not to wear that is the question now surrounding the jewish. for george gabriel porges from the berlin also doc synagogue the answer is clear everybody took the side of us in the in the feeling that the word couldn't find the debate began when germany's commission on anti semitism to get a warning to jews i cannot advise jews to wear the qip are everywhere all the time in germany that advise prompted a few reus reaction from some jews and politicians the president of israel described it as a capitulation to end to semitism mystic line then did a u. turn i call on all citizens of berlin and across germany to wear the kippur next

saturday if there are new intolerable attacks targeting israel and jews on the occasion of day in berlin bridge by. their cunts day is an annual event marked globally and unites those who dispute israel's claim to jerusalem also known as cunts in arabic. on the other side of the street those who support israel it looked like the perfect occasion to sporty could pass with pride on not at least 85 percent haven't even war of. the people i notice and i have seen that one for nobody here because. you know yesterday that the people who were there they are not religious don't forget it was shot by after all his controversial statements we caught up with mr
11:24 am
klein with my statement i want to start in on this if a is about the situation we have in germany. is a very good provoke symbol for that because many people in germany and in your opening that the keep something exotic or not are not in the area but i would say i'm here to show our solidarity. we could do is going to be intimidated but why and it worked though the attention was mixed for me it's like what i said it's like a disney led show i don't need you and you were to where we keep our that i do know that you are with me you know i am not wearing a cross but you would think that i'm with the oh i with you if you need be or if you are friends and i don't show it i don't need it it's in my heart long as a skin says it's easy to show your solidarity on a single occasion when you know you're protected by the police but that is not enough i mean it's nice but it's not more if i'm doing good one day for an hour
11:25 am
it's a show off or it's a nice show off we also talked to the head of germany's real friendship association not a jew across a stand he agreed with it's a matter of solidarity which is it is not just for show it is a sign of. it's the same sorry. for instance a solution to. this is it covers their heads and so on so whoever wants to bury keeper should do it days after the germany whereas keep our event it's still unclear whether jews should wear it to power if it's safe everywhere all the time just like the official said perhaps the idea was not to get an answer but simply raise a question great russian r.t. reporting from really. the target of a news update for this hour but don't forget you can always head to our website r.t. dot com for the details on all the stories and many more. this

prouty imax does are this is the ca's report have you noticed a lot more trash garbage building up everywhere it's true you're not paranoid it's actually happening yes yes and i want to put this into the context of this global kind of you know there's a certain class of people that know how everybody else in the world should live better on a nation state level and then on the individual level and again i return to the trump election. the european votes where you're seeing over and over is the rise up of people rejecting this condescending social justice warrior ng better than you sort of thing especially when it turns out that they aren't better than anybody else so in the case of look at canada canada everybody agrees is one of the most progressive nations on earth all sorts of you know social welfare programs for most
11:30 am
people there could be some issues with indigenous populations that arise every once in a while but on a global scale they are considered very progressive and a nice sweet polite nation trash wars do terrorists orders tons of garbage shipped back to canada or dumped in territorial waters outspoken philippines president rudra go to terror today has ordered that containers carrying trash from canada should be shipped back to the country it is the latest chapter in a disagreement over more than 100 containers of trash that were shipped to the philippines between 20132014 illegally by a canadian company so canada had said they were going to take it back but they haven't taken a back so the philippines is saying we're going to dump it all in your coastal waters if you don't take this back right.
