that is the libyan people that is why we should carefully slowly gradually. into elections today you have basically 2 parties so everybody laban's the other the way he wants because there is a deep crisis of legitimacy and this crisis of legitimacy cannot be solved by going to be a. u.s. democratic senator slams the trumpet ministration for giving the green light to sharing sensitive nuclear technology with saudi arabia just days after the killing of dissidents saudi journalist jamal khashoggi. the trucker ministration has broken

this precedent they kept it secret i worry that they're trying to hide information or sweetheart deal in this that they don't want the american public to know. the leader of the world's most populous country meets the president of the world's biggest nation russia and china push for improved bilateral ties amid growing pressure from the united states. and journalists warn of a threat to press freedom whistleblowers in australia after police raids on the media over the disclosure of classified data. was told by hubbard that i'm not the target of this investigation it's about the people who were supposed to keep this stuff confidential. no one here in moscow welcome to get news from oxy international 1st for you a u.s. senator is demanding an investigation into the secretive nuclear technology transfers from the united states to saudi arabia senator tim kaine who obtained the

information from the energy department called the news dangerous. i worry that they're trying to hide information that would that would maybe lead us to uncover that there's some you know corruption or or sweetheart deal in this that they don't want the american public to know the current concerns around the timing of the approval and it was signed off a little over 2 weeks after the brutal killing of saudi dissident journalist jamal khashoggi for which several high level saudi officials were blamed the u.s. energy department confirmed the transfers back in march after the 1st reports emerged but haven't responded to the request for comment on the cain statement saudi arabia for its part claims its atomic program is strictly for civil and peaceful uses of the u.s. congress is also disturbed by the level of covertness that surrounded the transfers as they put it no time references been given by the trump administration picks up the story. the fact that the trumpet ministration provided nuclear technical

expertise to the saudi monarchy has got some in congress pretty rattled the trump administration has broken this precedent they kept it secret we found out in march that they had done a number of transfers to saudi arabia it turns out that right after the show he was murdered by the saudis and they were lying about it the administration said fine here here's we'll pass nuclear technology on to you now a quick reminder the killing of the journalist sent shock waves around the world when he was killed in the country's consulate in istanbul now the brutal death apparently sent shock waves throughout the world but it wasn't enough to stop some nuclear deals now it appears that the trump team was rushing perhaps because they thought the fallout from the killing would make it more controversial at a later date and following the shoji case a bipartisan group of legislators did indeed pass a law allowing congressional oversight of any nuclear cooperation agreements with saudi arabia and tom certainly does seem eager to promote nukes how many countries

have it iran is going to happen at some point we have to say you know what we're better off if japan protects itself against this maniac in north korea we're better off frankly if south korea is going to start to protect its saudi arabian you know what in saudi arabia absolutely now let's not forget that saudi arabia is a signatory of the nuclear nonproliferation treaty and they do have a working agreement with the international atomic energy agency however arms control experts raised their eyebrows over the building of a recent nuclear reactor facility do you have to consent to the saudi arabia does not want to acquire any nuclear bomb but without a doubt if iran developed a nuclear bomb we will follow suit as soon as possible now peaceful nuclear energy is certainly permitted and russia has worked with saudi arabia on atomic energy before however russia's agreements with saudi arabia were upfront transparent and they included a signed roadmap on what would and would not be happening with the program the u.s. secrecy is certain. frustrating to the point that with any deal done behind closed

doors you have to wonder what they're trying to hide this is very troubling this is actually a catastrophe to hide such important information in the deal between . is there corruption and what is the nature of these relations why is the president doing these things for saudi arabia the armories so why are they promoting the saudi efforts to obtain a nuclear capabilities maybe a nuclear bomb but this is not good for the middle east the saudis never say the truth is the great fear that this is only a call of large and what the actually mean is to compete with iran in trying to get it locally a bomb under the table top administration looks as if he is helping them to do that and this is increasing the arms race in the region i don't buy anything either the trap administration is saying it i don't buy anything that the saudis are saying

there is a conspiracy here they're trying to hide fact they're not giving the full information and there is no it's parity so i don't i think that we should doubt and i think that we should pursue this issue very closely to see what develops. its state to have a state visit by chinese leader cheating ping to russia talk to president putin i touched on the venezuelan crisis iran and the situation on the korean peninsula also among the agreements signed a deal between chinese tech giant weiwei russian telecom company and ts on developing russia's 5 g. network the 2 countries have also agreed to develop bilateral trade using national currencies the ruble and the one. extra russia and china have common views on the situation in the korean peninsula and follow the joint resolution of the situation the noting that there's no diplomacy for solving existing probably. we'll continue to work with china for the escalation of tensions and strengthening

security in this region we will to continue working for a peaceful resolution in syria and venezuela we remain committed to the iran nuclear deal. we discussed the development of our bilateral relations since their stablish 170 years ago included they've reached an unprecedented level new possibilities have opened for us the world is changing protectionism and unilateralism a raising their heads china and russia as leading world powers will protect the international system based on international law and multilateral trade cheese a 3 day state visit to russia marks 70 years of diplomatic relations international affairs commentator jonathan steele says moscow beijing ties are now better than ever friendship is hardly ever been warmer and stronger than it is at the moment there's almost never sure which you can find disagreement detergent is a $150000000000.00 roughly trade which isn't sounds enormous and it comes at

a time when russian american tensions are high in chinese american tensions even higher because of the trade war that's been imposed by donald trump on china well i think it's kind of warning to the west mild sort of way to say look russia can survive with the united states or can china and in fact they can get together in the cold war there was this russian china american triangle with american china more allied against russia russia has supplies united. around the americas russia and china the chinese later arrived in moscow bearing gifts changing being handed over to giant pandas to moscow there was a part of a conservation program. 2 2

the state visit comes amid growing tensions of course between china and the united states and their trade war will be taking a closer look at that later in the program. next though concerns over press freedom of being raised in australia after police raids on a prominent journalist and then on australia's national broadcaster the a.b.c. of the cases are linked police say the search is a based on the disclosing of classified information the criminalization of crack down on national security journalism is spreading like a virus these sanch president is already having effect journalists must unite and remember that car itch is also contagious this police raid against our partners at a.b.c. is an attack on press freedom which we the b.b.c.

find deeply troubling the australian federal police weight of race serious concerns about freedom of the press they could have a chilling effect on the right of journalists to carry out their chops the scene might be expected in an authoritarian country but not in a democracy. both cases are based on the stories published over a year ago with the help of leaks the a.b.c.'s afghan files were published in 2017 and exposed to possible war crimes by australian special forces in afghanistan based on secret a defense of documents in the home of thirst the political editor of australia's sunday telegraph newspaper was raided in relation to a 28 story based on secret correspondence between ministry she disclosed a government plan to expand its spying on australian citizens and an australian radio host revealed that the government's now also investigating how he obtained an authorised data that boats filled with refugees had tried to reach australia before them said the focus of the problem probe is not him but its source. about an hour

after we shared the information we were told that the department of pays will investigate this disclosure i was told by hubbard phase that i'm not the target of this investigation it's about the people who were supposed to keep this stuff confidential last year australia increased the punishment for leaking classified data and it's now a crime for any public official to share unauthorized information minister scott morrison defended the raid saying that the north protecting australia's national security but australian electro benoit come off thinks it's alarming that the government is more concerned with leakers than the alleged crimes are committed. side individuals who are very dedicated as they were personally see them stopping but this is very dangerous thing this generous and said. this is whether this was before lots this the genocide question won't necessarily go to jail the sources that they are using and people's lives they are very much at risk which is the

agenda and the arrests of these investigations the particular release of the files has been something you know some of the dissolutions and for all those in the. us trained military to sense the revelation this has been also seen to be the graphs fence rather than actually seeing the s.e.'s is that in france the issue has been more than those revealing those crimes and it. really. has been a major political shift in denmark where the liberal party has conceded victory to the social democrats they want to majority in parliament in an election dominated by climate change welfare cuts and immigration issues he said to be the country's youngest of a prime minister has declared a sea change in the country's political direction. i have grown to denmark should have a new majority there denmark should take a new direction tonight we have

a historic victory for their red block in the parliament. center left parties banks a number of anti immigration measures over the years including bans on the burka in the cab being confiscation of valuables from migrants who arrived in the country they also voted in favor of doubling penalties of crimes in so-called migrant ghetto areas push for making daycare mandatory and disadvantaged areas with parents who refused to send their children there losing their social benefit payments the party defended its saying the these are the problems that people wanted to be solved and that immigration has to be controlled we heard from a member of germany's left party who says denmark social democrats are tackling all the issues the wrong voters' minds right now. and with the damage voters have all of what they do want to their government and their track record that is very broad social welfare and that's what most of them and go to college they want to see them break their social welfare system and they want to do that not at the expense of

immigrants but they very much want to see immigrants integrate into damage society they don't want to see women with book us on the streets they don't want to see showed women with males in schools they want to see an integrated society and the social democrats have promised to look at that while at the same time being the social welfare and i think that's the core product of those so for them it's identity that is something that everyone in the denmark believes this coffee to be able to deliver. this is much more to come in the program including as i mentioned a new round of tensions of between the united states and china amid the ongoing trade boy it's up next after the break.

good politicians do something. to put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. wanted. to go right to be close this is what the 3 of the more people. interested always in the waters of.

the u.s. has said china is playing a blame game and accuse the country of walking back on its trade commitments after beijing puts the full responsibility on washington for the stalemate and 11 rounds of negotiations it comes amid a bruising trade war between the world's 2 biggest economies it may donald trump raise tariffs on $200000000000.00 worth of imported goods from china during stall trade talks accusing china of backing out of its commitments beijing retaliated with a levy on $60000000000.00 worth of u.s. imports from swan that he's ready to tax essential all chinese imports. so he's referred to china as quote our enemy a major threat and not a friend of the united states but his trade agenda may jeopardize deep business ties between some u.s. politicians and beijing as he. trenker explains. the man who leads the republican

majority in the senate is very very very proud of the president he's doing so great a bully in china with his trade war tactics greatest problems in the trade. with china and it's been a long frustrating ongoing problem and i think we're all commend the president for taking on that shot is well saying things like that could get mr mcconnell in a bit of trouble with his wife let me tell you something she's the current american secretary of transportation elaine chao and the u.s. journalists who got hold of and looked into this redacted e-mail by an american embassy official believe it shows mrs chalo has a whole lot of business interests in china it turns out allegedly that back in 2017 she was set for an official visit to china and really wanted her family members to

be allowed in the room while she was supposed to talk to her chinese counterparts all of a sudden the trip got called off the transportation department never officially explained why that happened although a version did come up that it all could have been due to an urgent meeting with the president. someone by themselves on take the ground anyway mrs child's family business ties with china aren't that hard to trace. an unfortunate conflict of interest and trade war hunters den if you dig further into the matter though you'll find out there. quite

a few folks in the american elite who'd love a slice of the china cake what if this guy ends up kicking donald trump out of the office would we then have to forget about us china trade wars for 4 years after all joe biden's son runs a company that's partially financed by the state run bank of china and mr biden doesn't appear to treat the mission to challenge beijing's economic might as a priority china is going to eat our lunch come on back to the republicans a former house speaker john boehner was once behind the push to make china favored trade partner with the u.s. the most nations of the world almost all the nations of the world have most favored nation trading status and the fact is what we're looking for is the same status for china mr boehner eventually went to work for a lobbying firm squire patton boggs and this company has

a presence in china to say the least the most ironic case is that of donald purdy jr in his resume you'll probably find out that he's helped draft a policy paper known as the u.s. national strategy to secure cyberspace masterminded the national cyber security division and the department of homeland security while. all that to end up as the chief security officer at technologies usa ties between the us establishment in both parties are very very close to the chinese who look at your girl off a lot of interest in the united states who will say that doing pursuing a certain policy may be bad for america as a country but we don't care about that because it's good for my company to issues divisions within the u.s. policy making apparatus up until trudeau decided to play hardball with charred china on terror and with many other. countries there were no divisions it was it

was a very community relationship trying to use have the advantage be of having a united position and i don't see those divisions being healed at all i see them getting much much worse. it's the 75th anniversary of the d.-day landings in the 2nd world war wednesday was the 1st day of commemoration of events with world leaders gathering a portsmouth naval memorial in southern england president trumpets joined france's president across at the american cemetery in normandy and on the front more than $1000.00 u.s. troops are buried there the day is the military term for the 1st day of the normandy landings the operations believed to be the start of the liberation of nazi occupied western europe it became the largest seaborne invasion in history but the landings were the only turning point in the 2nd world war. the 6th of june 1944 the allies land in normandy is often touted is the key turning point in world war 2.

d.-day can be found across mass culture in books music. films. have smoked famously and hollywood's saving private ryan. day is frequently cited did political speeches here in normandy the rescue began. here the stood and fought against tyranny in a giant undertaking unparalleled in human history but this was a war with more than one turning point when that 2nd front was opened the soviet army had been advancing in multiple directions and had reached bella ruse the battle of stalingrad the 1st major loss for the nazis was already a distant memory to compare numbers about 640000 nazi soldiers took part in the normandy battle. the losses in stalingrad total $1500000.00 losses in

normandy were 226000 4 times less than the soviet soldiers killed in stalingrad in $143.00 us president roosevelt called the battle of stalingrad the crucial moments of the war in the name of the people of the united states of america i presume this scroll to the city of sterling to commemorate our admiration for its gallant defenders the glorious victory stemmed the tide of invasion and marked the turning point in the war of the allied nations against the forces of aggression. but the facts now don't seem that important. the americans come to free of our victory in that war decided not just a century but it will endure for eternity we did ok because we know when. human rights lawyers are planning to sue the european union in connection with migrant deaths they argue thousands of people needlessly lost their lives crossing the

mediterranean they say migrants rights were violated in numerous ways by the e.u. for example by scaling back sea rescues in 2014 and hampering the work of n.g.o.s they also slammed the decision to send 40000 migrants back to dangerous camps in libya and to help the libyan coast guard stop migrant boats the lawyers allege certain statements made by e.u. leaders make it clear that they were aware of the risks we've been speaking to 2 of them. we're talking about one of the most serious situations in terms of tyrion and crimes committed since the beginning of the century 14000 people died and we showed that there was a clear consciousness and willingness to let part of them these people out today intercepted by day in a way to be in close to god and now being detained in detention camps and he told you how is this where they are exposed to these crimes it's not that it's going to investigating the in the forest in congo it's very easy task to go to the

living room and go into the archives and to mine who was the most responsible for those crimes flocks of refugees to the between 2015 to 2017 involve more than one and a half 1000000 people more than 12000 are reported to have died making their way over all that missing so the european countries in particular greece and spain with the main e.q. entry points and e.u. spokes person refused to comment on what they branded nonexistent legal action saying only that it was a priority of the block to protect human lives the lawyers those say the has failed to do that. we really hope for for a huge tried in this sense something that the international criminal court doesn't known for its simple reason there's been very. level of responsibility and we have to very clearly distinguish from those who executive that we did and who created the objectives that triggered this execution and you cannot you have to distinguish

between people like the ministry of interior the commissioner if you see the most and then another lever the director frontex and then another lever the militia leaders vote but what we show is that they are all connected in a common put and which was to systematically and widespread to the. civil population and therefore to commit crimes against humanity. the most responsible doctors which are the agents in the fishers that are orchestrating this policy they designed it and stablish it to achieve their own political goals to immigration to europe ok that's the news for now we're expecting president putin to address the major economic forum underway right now in some petersburg we'll go live to value when it happens time state without. so this research vessel was specially built for the optic am down toxic and now

it's embarking on a very unusual mission. it's heading for latitude 82 degrees known to find a thick ice flow wedge into it and set up a camp nearby. and for about a month simply drift along with the ice. the purpose of the expedition is to carry on research begun by drifting polar stations which have to stop working because of melting arctic ice. it's just you know she's the dark horse was if. you get those who is. very very very.

hot in the arctic for centuries it remained a mystery fear similar and silence for centuries man calling aspired to the north to high latitudes to the pole to the axis of the earth where the weather of the world is born. 70 palos own northern pole s.p. for short is how the polish stations one of. in autumn an expedition landed on an old thick ice floe and people lived and worked there for a whole year slowly drifting across the arctic ocean. before. that there were other fish that. would have done their part.

weather models can't work properly without data from these latitudes and many research scientists see the chance to work in the high arctic as quite a coup the collection of data by drifting stations for ocean ology hydro chemistry hydro physics bottom research and ocean biology continued for many years. until the arctic ice started to melt. serious we're go further with those with the good there will be some who's going to ensnare it's like you ms i'm a designer for the photos and nights in the galley you look at the docs for all salute the social pulls through but i. would do the producer loza role for creating interview with old boss living would do was a doesn't doesn't work look pleasure most of the.

most presidents but always president richard well as president bush so little does but for. a. while an expedition is on routes to its destination bottom geology and ocean high drama research is carried out soil and water samples are taken nicholai from a chip off headed has p 40 the last drifting station. in. the works will was not the amount of work or the short of the will. insidiously. the gene pool. or more the social and i will work.
