theory. our thanks. to the legal. the road for treason made the. steps down as leader of the conservative party. for the. breaking while the u.s. . washington the country's opposition against

so then today this friday u.k. prime minister treason may officially steps down as leader of the conservative party opposed she didn't for 3 years now the scramble to a place is in overdrive nominations for the tory leadership start on monday with 11 candidates vying for the top job takes a look at who's in the running. she's been burned by bragged it and now the woman known as teflon to reason is on the way out after repeatedly failing to push her e.u. withdrawal deal through parliament last month the pm finally announced that she would be stepping down and she did it with a whimper rather than a bang the 2nd female prime minister but certainly not the last. i do so with no ill will but with enormous during gratitude to have had to the opportunity to serve the country i love there is looking at the number of

candidates that have joined the race to replace may as prime minister may find themselves crying to and they're seeing what's going on here they've got no say in what's going on they can see there's 11 people standing up saying they want to you . call me so it's even well this is going to be detrimental the long term of the conservative party sure officially the race only begins on monday but already there are 11 leadership contenders with 2 having already dropped out and the british media is indulging itself pouring over the kaleidoscope of varying degrees of soft and hard brags that candidates like foreign secretary jeremy hunt health secretary match hancock or environment secretary michael gove although there is already one clear favorite.

and he's already got donald trump's seal of approval no worse i like your my i've liked him for a long time he's i think you do a very good job but the tory leadership contest is a complicated process and past experience has shown that the favorite never wins so this is anybody's race each candidate has to have the support of at least 8 members of parliament from that conservative m.p.'s will be asked to vote several times in order to whittle down the crowd of power hungry politicians to just one final head to head battle now that. the decision will be turned over to conservative party members that's grassroots conservatives it could be from down the road or treasure who lives next door and it is they who will ultimately decide

who becomes the next prime minister with such a crowded field of hopefuls this summer britain is bracing itself for a political popularity contest like no other as for 2 reason may the woman that's been forced to leave 10 downing street before securing britain's departure from the e.u. will stay on as a lame duck leader her job now is to keep the chair warm for several more weeks until one of this lot finally takes over the top job richard wellings the producer. says whoever takes a series of moves got a real parliament. well unfortunately she's left behind very very difficult situation for the incoming prime minister i think another vote unlikely in the short because this will be seen as not simply

a trial by those type of votes and leave i mean it kind of undermines the whole idea of democracy if you don't stick to results and then keep repeating the election over and over again until you get the result that the establishment wants so that would really really further undermine trust in politics nevertheless it's going to be very difficult given the vast majority of m.p.'s are probably you're not going to let probably block any real breakthrough deal so if we get said probe prime minister he's really he or she's really going to struggle to get through parliament and could even face a vote of no confidence to prevent the u.k. leaving with no deal which point he or she will probably have to call a general election and that would be hugely risky. the united states continues to ramp up pressure on that as well as nicolas maduro as government announcing new sanctions against the state owned oil company now but it seems though that washington is still unsure said about the future of venezuela in case steps illegal

audio recording suggests u.s. secretary of state might pompei was finding it difficult to unite the fractured venezuelan opposition into one cohesive force caleb maupin explains bike pompei always been caught making some comments about venezuela that were not intended for the primetime viewers apparently he's not sure who would replacement dural if his regime change efforts are successful lerton under which just to keep the opposition as. difficult momentarily. everybody's going to believe the reason that it ended says that ex-president. people. are the rightful heir of. pompei i was pretty clear about the fact that this discussion was not meant for public consumption so we did get a favorable response. this is what america's top diplomat said at the united nations when the lights were on and the cameras were rolling now we have a new leader. in venezuela who has promised to bring elections and constitutional

order back to venezuela and security back to the region we cannot delay this critical conversation which has the world's attention for the sake of venezuela and the region we must support the venezuelan people and do so right now though my comp aoe isn't too concerned about what happens in venezuela after the current leadership is overthrown now let's not forget that the us meddling in the country's internal affairs is motivated purely by selfless humanitarian concerns about the people so after regime change there are 40 plus contenders who will then fight it out for power now does that remind you of any recent events in current history take for example the u.s. invasion of iraq dick cheney said that it would go well my belief is we will in fact be greeted as liberators but there's been nothing but chaos and civil war in iraq since the usa invaded there are 288000 deaths so far and counting and dick

cheney wasn't completely clueless wasn't what he said in 1904 but you got to iraq and took it over and took down saddam hussein's government the money going to put in place for take libya hillary clinton was delighted to hear that gadhafi had been put to the sword we came we saw our died but now even barack obama admits that toppling the libyan government didn't come with a game plan for what happens next what he considers his worst mistake as president probably failing to. plan for. the day after. what i think was the right thing to do in. the intervening. in libya but who needs planning right after all the people of venezuela would probably love to have their homeland go the way of iraq and libya nothing says freedom and liberation like having regime change followed by civil war and thousands of refugees fleeing for their lives it confirms something that we you know long suspected but you know now

you know is out in the open that the opposition is so internally divided washington you know the figures like marco rubio favor a radical regime change scenario which involves no effectively destroying the existing institutional structure that has been built in venice when the you know in the words of john bolton that to open up venezuela's busy oil sector to us and you know to really return but as well to the pre 999 status quo where it was a reliable ally in the region and you know reliable agent of the u.s. opec to maintain a low while prices as the u.s. diplomatic cables themselves acknowledge with a chance to discuss the league with russia's foreign ministry spokeswoman marie is the hound of a. this is interfering into mastic policy that is why it's misstep by just all the media the person.

with whom he has that conversation so this is your 100 percent interfering. to the. domestic policy of a country independent country independent state this is understanding some countries probably washington and probably that it is not that easy nowadays. withdraw official government from independent country and state that it's it's not fair and it's actually in the way how things should be done in the 21st century and so i think the. put themselves on pause and i think we i mean all of the international community should use this time. to insist that this is not the option that this is absolutely not the option it's up to. it's up to the people who are living in this country to choose the government to choose

a president to sheep their own political life and to leave their rule and political life but it's not up to washington to decide. a german who murdered 85 patients has been given a 2nd life sentence or 42 year old said he was endlessly sorry. was that the trial . oldenburg festival hall this is where court proceedings had to be held the regional court hole was simply not able to accommodate all those people who wanted to attend and massive trial huge public attention the case raised many questions but gave a few on cers and one of the biggest questions was what is the exact number of people that mr her girl killed we heard from many including the main geology of the process that it is still unclear this is him entering the room packed with people he's caused so much harm to someone who was supposed to relieve the pain and

prolong life but instead brought death to his patients who received a 2nd life sentence for killing 85 people have to an earlier sentence back in 2015 for 2 murders and 2 attempted murders the slate his conviction his 3rd already out of the 100 murders he was charged with her go admitted killing 43 patients but didn't rule out another 52 murders he was not sure and denied 5 but officials suspect there could be more than 200 deaths investigators have tried hard to skew 130 bodies in germany poland and turkey many more have been cremated burying the truth for good this is where news her girls started playing his german version of a russian roulette oldenburg clinic working as a nurse here for 2 years studying 999 mr hurdle would pick up a patient could be any race so done there any age or health condition or social

background to make an injection that would cause complications so that later mr hurdle could calm and quickly and professionally revive the patient get in everybody's admiration he's calling us at the clinic or so impressed with his skills that they even gave him a flattering nickname resuscitation rambo was out of a knowing that the person they praised so mom. which was in most of the cases behind the patients complications in the 1st place not all of mr her goals victims who are able to survive many of them died. was killed in the 2001 and it was this. weekend when many people has been killed or maybe has been killed we don't know exactly everyone thought of the operation was good everything is fine now but then there was a call at i guess 22 o'clock almost 22 o'clock in the evening and they said we're very sorry about your father is dead and i suspect it may very unexpectedly numbs

you. were not just a good viable route to punch and that's the right word for becoming sparse m l suspected nothing until the statistics came out showing that the number of das in the clinic almost doubled since mr who joined the team but instead of investigating the cases or reporting their fears they simply decided to get rid of the nurse but before they gave him a very good recrimination letter that he brought here to this hospital in the neighboring town of delman horst mr her go got hired here and these deadly game continued for another 3 years until he got caught in 2005 and yet another question many now i ask is how did this all happen and what should be done to prevent this in the future with nor should reporting the turn for the moscow time right ahead this friday morning on out with me kevin i mean president trump's expected back in the u.s.

offer his recent trip to europe but there is trouble brewing at hope we can report u.s. democrats are calling again for his impeachment but with even more for them before we'll break down the case against the president when we come back. this in petersburg international economic forum is a unique event in today's business world. over the last 21 years the forum has become a leading global platform for discussing the key economic issues facing russia emerging markets and the world thousands of business community members attend a forum to address today's and vital issues. watch our special forum coverage on r.t. . china

does not want to fight like that we are opposed to fighting up at the same time we're not afraid of it china is bold and resolute and is able to defend its legitimate rights and interests china is still holding the door open for the us china trade negotiations if the united states she wishes to proceed with them even needs to be more sincere. good morning it's close to 2 months now of course said special counsel robert muller's report said donald trump did not collude with russia to win the presidency but the fires in die down the democrats are still desperately trying to find a way to impeach the president now building their case on obstruction of justice

allegations our senior correspondent takes up the story. there are those who support trouble those who want him impeached and those who really really really want him impeached preferably now and in a painful way take for instance this particularly enthusiastic new york times contributor who has gone and written up actual articles of impeachment to save everyone's time i suppose or maybe just a hobby of his who knows others c.b.s. have impeachment track is literally counting congressmen who are calling for trump to be impeached like kids opening chocolate filled advent calendars 63 now out of 535 senators and representatives just a few 100 to go and trump will hiring just need

a reason you can't impeach for annoying tweets about noxious has styles or know exists and collusion all that's left is obstruction when a subject of an investigation obstructs that investigation or lies to investigators it strikes at the core of the government's effort to find the truth and hold wrongdoers accountable here's a question that's been giving lawyers migraines how or why does one obstruct an investigation an investigation that later proves he was innocent of the crime he was being investigated for the special counsel's report states that his investigation did not establish that members of the trump campaign conspired or coordinated with the russian government in its election interference activities namely any sort of collusion with russia it's almost impossible to have an obstruction of justice no underlying crime what makes trump especially awful obstruction is he voluntarily gave his investigators sometimes and writing material

on how he allegedly tried to. obstruct the investigation like when you reportedly told the then white house counsel to get rid of mueller 5 and then allow that counsel to go and testified to mueller the former new york times wrote a fake piece today implying that because white house counsel don't mcgann was given hours of testimony to the special counsel he must be joined in time but i love him and all others to testify i didn't have to i have nothing to hide in fact trumpeted boasted earlier about what a good boy he was being about how much workload he had provided the investigators the white house had to do over 20000 pages of documents the 2016 campaign 1400000 pages 20 white house employees gave voluntary interviews it's like trump was building an obstruction of justice case against himself and on

top of that he was terrible at it. wasn't fod he investigated for 674 days and only finished when he was done so this is it if you can figure out how to impeach trump for trying to conceal crimes he didn't commit contact your local democrat immediately i expect anytime soon will be offering a reward it is not obstruction of justice in any way again this was the obstruction of justice not for a court proceeding of course this was not a court proceeding this was an informal investigation through an executive agency an executive body and and so because of that the elements are a little bit different it would have to be willful omission or willful concealment or destruction of evidence during an investigation which of course did not happen in this case i don't think in the end there will be any consequences for

obstruction because i don't think obstruction can be proven i do believe that the democrats are still reeling in the democrat. that's want to make sure that they're not seen as having wasted $40000000000.00 of the taxpayer money in order to start our engage in an investigation and a spying campaign based on evidence that wasn't even legitimate so i think the democrats are going to continue to try i think that will be a term that continues to be thrown around just so they can save face because they're looking to retake the white house in 2020. politicians and international decision makers are gathered in russia's northern capitals predisposed to discuss the future of finance and business is take to them of the economic forum and a number of high profile talks are expected later between top diplomats and prime ministers but it seems the still a bit of time for check out what. will be official events day one russian president vladimir putin the chinese kind of xi jinping went for a little cruise on the never referred nice evening for it as well as visiting the symbolic world. where the 1st shot of the 117 revolution came from to kill the

masterpieces of the world renowned state. business but today just last hour i chatted with the c.e.o. of the russian direct investment fund about how the full benefits russia china relations. but working very closely with char you know we created russia china investment fund which is a partnership between russian direct investment fund which and china investment corporation and we made investments all of them generate a very good attractive return and yesterday we announced the formation of a new investment fund with china in technology we also made a deal in venture capital holding which is a major techno park in china and also we closed our investment in russia jointly with awesome megafauna mailboat our you will build the largest platform in russia so lots of great important corporation with china it's really important because it's similar to the last minute thing over the last 10 years president and the

president of china including president xi have been working to improve russia. china relations they're definitely at support right now and we need to do more projects more investment together but it's very important it's not a friendship a game started by the it's a strategic alliance that really makes sense and look at it head to later on today for you more the highlights of the 2nd day of the international coming forward to be dipping into that for the day and you can catch so much more to online from acidity dot com. new york state sponsored medical insurance programs been paying tens of thousands of dollars to treat the erectile dysfunction of convicted sex offenders according to an audit released wednesday medicaid made improper payments of 933594 dollars for drugs procedures and supplies to treat erectile dysfunction of that medicaid paid $63301.00 for $43.00

sex offenders state law prohibits payment of erectile disfunction procedures and supplies for sex offenders where is federal laws do not address erectile disfunction procedures and supplies for sex offenders despite those laws medicaid has been handing out money to treat the condition for 6 years in 2005 medicaid paid for biographer under $98.00 registered sex offenders. and then. at the health department disputed to find it it said that the medication can also be used to treat enlarged prostate and blood pressure in the lungs where people in new york what they thought about their tax dollars and the way they were being spent allegedly. all the money should be out in the needy right now should be supporting those negative stuff to get down to the root cause of why these people are sexual offenders rather than giving them something that will even make them

more of a hazard then they already are now it is not a wise choice i'm concerned i mean yes they should. go look clearly and carefully and our utilize our resources and financial resources and some other resources to support you know not only was it on why use it was morally depraved in my opinion gets like providing guns without ammunition to people who have mass murdered in prison and i think that it wasn't noticed because in the great universe of taxpayer funded expenses it wasn't a big expense it was less than a $1000000.00 but what it did was it served several 100 people with this medication that allows them to continue to have magine themselves in the sexually dominant role that made them weird and wacko in the 1st place transparency public exposure of these behaviors and of these decisions ought to make sure their decisions are

made better to anyone who signed off on this for 6 years ought to be fired for common sense reasons and it should never happen again 1026 the morning or moskos a snapshot of the very many stories we're across today around the world this friday auto come as much in scope so much more if you go up any breaking news as times they will go straight to mobile devices i'm kevin owen when the team have a great day. the swarms of them so moving. to good use who was before. much of those who heard the food you. were going. so could move. move.

this seen this before in the eighty's with the rise of japan and the us had a response they rejiggered the global currency markets that the plaza accord this was reagan and robert rubin the same people they gave us the plunge protection team after the crash of $1000.00 anything so china does seem to be wanting to play that game so they're going to have to come up with some other strategy and have a moment appear on the horizon. you know 2 good 2017 the german newspaper developed published an article claiming that the european union have lost 30000000000 euros as a result of its very anti russian sanctions.

particularly affected eastern europe many polish film as went broke and even committed suicide. sometimes on the camp to come to as i was of on the get on with. will put on the political front on the. on the zip for the young to have to finance my view on the whole saga going against the dolls and on to other kind of unknown home doesn't mean let's see in the moon the pulling. swung the smith. on doesn't dance with all the faults and that's wasn't.
