gone to 5 am in denver 7 pm in manila 2 in the afternoon right here in moscow this money june the 17th a warm welcome to r.t. international. iran has announced it's to boost its production of low level enrich uranium and surpass the stockpile limits set by the 2015 nuclear agreement in the next 10 days. in 10 days time on june the 27th we will exceed the 300 kilogram limit on reached uranium under the nuclear deal after that we will continue to increase the speed of production drastically. well the move comes after tehran stopped complying with some of its commitments under the agreement that was in may and it was in response to the u.s. unilaterally pulling out of the deal. or not make sanctions on the islamic republic a year ago back in may there are also set
7:02 am
a 60 day deadline for all signatories of the nuclear deal to start protecting its economy from u.s. penalties warning that it is ready to start enriching uranium at higher levels. a professor of political communication to run university that we spoke to believes the move may come as a surprise for washington. another says that some people in the white house was that they would be able to push it would be able to do. the sanctions. and you know i wouldn't do much now we know especially after today that. was wrong you don't is not building. fight back this is going to upset the president around but hopefully he will be upset that people like john bolton have given him the advice that iran would continue to follow the moment one so i think
7:03 am
trump is understanding that some of the people who. are not giving good advice and i think that their job is in mind because. it needs to be pointed out that relations between the countries plummeted further recently when washington accused iran of attacking 2 oil tankers that was in the gulf of oman iran vehemently denies all the accusations while the u.s. has once again all options on the table including military action. we are confident that we can take a set of actions that can restore deterrence which is our missions as you say a full range of options does that include a military response force. sometimes even obvious things must be. and does it in his current firm stance against iran's aggression the in the gulf of amman in the persian gulf as well as in the region in general. over the last 2 years the us
7:04 am
has been implementing an aggressive approach violating international law and using its financial and military clout this poses a serious threat to the region and to global security we call upon sober assessments and wait for some credible evidence to be presented so it's ridiculous to cite secret data in this case as we did already in the last days we have called for the maximum restraint the world cannot afford another crisis especially in an area like that well it does raise a lot of questions doesn't it one of them being could washington once again be trying to find a pretext to wage war your heart t.-z. course it all off. donald trump is not a president known for policy consistency but one thing no critic can take away from him is his apparent a burning hatred for iran everywhere we go in the middle east it's a rare and iran iran spread death destruction and chaos behind every problem is iran a very dangerous player very bad player iran's leaders so. death.
7:05 am
and destruction and with guys like might bump aoe and john bolton pushing trying to squeeze that trigger it seems a war could be looming but thank god it can't be just the president's cool thing like this needs congress' approval on paper except that really it doesn't we were absolutely presented with a full formal presentation on how the 2001 might authorize war on iran yes i'm certain i'm sorry sir secretary powell pale said it with his own words he did not say i want to go to iran and i'm going to use 2001 he referenced a relationship. between iran and al qaeda there's a convenient loophole that can help them and it's something called a us a us stands for authorization for use of military force against terrorists a long name but basically it allows the u.s. to attack any country that has ties to al qaida this is already been used in iraq
7:06 am
and afghanistan and if you look hard enough terrorists can be found everywhere in the past few months iran has been turning into a more and more of an al qaeda haven according to washington for 40 years the islamic republic's revolutionary guard corps has actively engaged in terrorism the world's leading state sponsor of terrorists of the really regimes use of terrorism as a tool of statecraft makes it fundamentally different from any other government they're a nation of terror and we will put up with it all aboard the militaristic bandwagon it is the best chance the hoops and capitol hill have had in years up until now would trump has been more or less true to his promise to curb his country's military adventurism being all bark and no bite as a candidate for president. i loudly pledged a new approach. great nations do not fight endless wars.
7:07 am
and while there is literally more verifiable evidence that would allow saudi arabia to be bombed into oblivion and have the saudi other good guys in washington's playbook the of course outright denial such claims over devolvement with extremists their america's greatest ally in the gulf which also happens just like trump to hate iran with a passion starting a war with iran would be unlike any other war that the united states has engaged in before abroad that would be a conflict that in some ways my be worse than vietnam it certainly won't be iraq the problem is that and bolton are in charge of foreign policy i don't think trump really has the details in hand it's like he's a rider on the horse but he doesn't have the reins and of course they will use this
7:08 am
tool the. authorization with the congress based on terrorism because they will present whatever iran does in the persian gulf or elsewhere as an act of terrorism that is the best way these days to get americans behind. and attack we asked people in new york what they thought of the possibility of part 10 chill military action between iran and the u.s. . can you imagine a situation where it would be you would be in support of a war with iran. it was after one was another war and then another war then another you know one thing is another way. to solve. things open assassinations and bombing other people and we knew about it you could prove it i think we need real proof that some type of activity is actually happening where people are losing life losing land where some type of injustice is happening at the hands of iran but at this point i don't really know that that's necessarily
7:09 am
a terrorist attack on you know innocent people you know something like 911 happens of course the response is this is necessary and immediate. is war the answer to that maybe not maybe but i still think personally we should find a different solution besides war we've been through many wars a lot of people have died in doesn't seem to make the issues go with. iran is having majlis against the horrors i think the country maybe can resolve his own issues with other countries' interference i can say is i hope nobody gets hurt i hope for world peace now it seems the u.s. might be opening another front in its international trade war this time with its ally india new delhi is firing back its impose tariffs on a further $28.00 american products some being taxed so a 70 percent it follows donald trump refusal to exempt india from increased the
7:10 am
yuan minium taxes in the u.s. last year back then india threatened to increase its tariffs 220 percent and head off a meeting with his indian counterpart later this month the us president has been accusing new delhi of not giving washington equal access to the indian market so what do poly boy the in case you missed the team think of trade in the modern age. how do you launch a war without needing to fight a war in case you missed it the economy stupid. international access to the u.s. market used to be a bit like dating the rich girl next door when you were a vogue was not easy or cheap but in the end it was worth their time for those u.s. markets are now and 11 and stood in a well lit window access is now expensive and even if it was worth it you know it's going to hurt some people we all know that america has the biggest
7:11 am
military in the world just level the cost of whatever country you're in there's a good chance that there is a u.s. aircraft carrier staring right back at you so now the u.s. is away from raising its economy in order to fight international disputes and dominating the market is i.c.b.m.'s. teetered you saying the intercontinental ballistic something should be ready to be deployed anywhere you need it advantages of the i.c.b.m.'s include causing misery to entire populations in countries you don't like without firing a single shot collapse the economies of your opponents and then blame the attack countries without actually having to deploy a single soldier and then accuse them of aggression and remember once to pull oid i.c.b.m.'s will work for decades with absolutely no effort from you just keep it fueled with a strong dollar you're going to leave the country very. traditional because it was
7:12 am
. sanctions are great to use against the likes of cuba venezuela last korea iran russia you know the bad guys the problem is you can't use them against the good guys which is why i don't know the difference administration has repackaged sanctions he calls. tiris allow you to target friends like mexico europe canada and especially your buddies in beijing because while sanctions are used as punishment tyrants are just a normal part of global trade right the way the us has been using them is no different china has started fighting back though apparently they've started to prevent their release of american films this might all have a hollywood ending after all.
7:13 am
well we spoke to the editorial advisor from india's republic t.v. who believes there's nothing equitable business. it's not a train well it's a john think that's what she does i mean he needs to meet these noises you used you know you need to every country is constantly constantly saying i'm going to do this and we'll do of at the end there's nothing to do in trade no more than that is anything critical in foreign policy the big guys do what they want ok this only stand in the end. the pay platform has never been the target and you cannot compare a country of the american economy size the indian economy or the grain all the countries the need each other trade means changing with each other this is business as usual. i want to turn attention to nother story no 2 sisters from saudi arabia are appealing to the international community for a safe haven after reportedly suffering brutal treatment at the homes of their
7:14 am
father the girls turned to twitter to raise awareness of their plight but the social media platform been suspended their accounts without explanation as well as the account of a human rights activist posting on their behalf all pages it should be pointed out have been restored in one of the videos the appeal for asylum. my father took us. to new t. he is looking for us now we traced it so on rights and given nations to only its activities to help us move to a safe country. the young women described how their parents were religious hardliners who were both physically abusive to the ledge one of them said she even had to be taken to hospital to treat her injuries they're now in turkey having escaped wallah family holiday there a human rights advocate we spoke to say social media was crucial in helping the girls speak arts. it's very important so anyone who's potentially at risk
7:15 am
to publish their case it's going to help them find asylum lucene other instances where girls have just waited too long to get their story out and that's allowed the family to track them down and essentially take them back to saudi against their will we need to be using social media more often it's revolution what lies the way that we can deal with human rights situations like that at the same time it's hugely risky because when we see accounts being suspended by swiss we have to question them and what the protocols are to protect people who are risking the situation obviously they need to install more safeguards put situations yeah right now as we see there in turkey but the spike being outside saudi arabia they're still at risk of being followed by authorities that's due to a smartphone op listen to this created by the saudi government now it can be used for monday in things like renewing passports paying parking fines but it also
7:16 am
allows male family members to truck female relatives and even prevent them from troubling the case of the sisters is not unique every year around a 1000 women attempt to flee the kingdom one successful case was not of one hum alcuin and who tried to flee to astri or via thailand after barricading herself in a hotel room she launched to a twitter campaign then was eventually granted asylum and come to a study diplomat later joked that denying her access to technology might have been a good idea. when she arrived in new twitter account and her followers grew to 45000 in one day it would have been better if they'd confiscated her mobile phone instead of her passport or rather sterling again so use that as the number of cases rise everything must be done to give these women a voice. over the past year we've seen cases such as say the let's see fair we've seen a half mama done we've seen hints from the u.a.e. and we're seeing more and more and i think that as i say each case is quite popular
7:17 am
and in fact muhammad's case was published and grew because inside saudi arabia is a step in itself to sort of promoting those more secure or secular belief system and the fact that it wasn't since it is quite surprising and therefore that it's going to inspire more and more girls who are suffering abuse to really try to escape in and risk their lives to secure the kind of freedom from abuse that of course everybody wants i mean also in these women would like to report the kind of abuse they have suffered to also receives within the country as to the u.a.e. authorities to saudi but they're not taking seriously and in fact it can lead to the increase in mental punishment or even did by way of homage killing. right ahead a little piece of par a dice home to giant toward toys and unique wildlife the u.s. has picked the go up because islands for the side of a new are based but alice we'll hear after the break there's backlash.
7:18 am
in a weld in which there are the americans that the chinese the indians the russians excedrin europeans can only way to be a player at that global top table by standing united and we are already united on the economic front and we increasingly understand that we have to do so also on the defense front. what politicians do. put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. that's. actually going to be close to what the 3 of them if you could get. interested in the war.
7:19 am
this. afternoon and here welcome back to the program to 19 ecuador has granted the united states permission to use one of its famed because islands. are a base but the government in quito is facing a buck plus what critics are calling a violation of the country's constitution taking a closer look for us ortiz. the galapagos islands home to the giant tortoises birthplace of darwin's theory of evolution and it'll when you walk to see
7:20 am
by the sound of lapping waves and the gentle hum of american planes you know as you know i love those i've mentioned that the galapagos is our aircraft carrier it is our natural carry on because it is shores us permanent replenishment deception facilities and it is a 1000 kilometers from our coast united states is going to take charge of improving conditions especially refueling eager about what has might now find some new star spangled species across the sky because ecuador has just agreed to allow the u.s. military to use the u.s. go world heritage site reports claim the pentagon will now keep planes on the historic san cristobal island for operations in the pacific ocean with the primary purpose said to be fighting drug trafficking so far so good that's just a small catch a minor inconvenience really but ecuador in constitution doesn't allow foreign military bases on its soil but now if it says the defense minister it's not a base passaic it's a funny little gathering place going to. the u.s.
7:21 am
to meet for periods of no more than a week and the subjects to the protocol of the preservation of sovereignty those are my concerns gone also on the plus side washington is covering all the costs but perhaps unsurprisingly not everyone is happy about this latest addition galapagos is not an aircraft carrier for gringo use it is an ecuadorian province patrimony of humanity patriotic ground that his vessel soul can reach such a level describes very well the government to represent now ecuador and u.s. relations hit a no no under former president rafael correa he i'm going to washington by closing one of the largest u.s. bases outside the state relations father soured one crank wanted wiki leaks co-founder to be an asylum. asylum and sheltered him from the long arm of the u.s. justice department for years but things have been on the up recently thanks to lenin moran oh who's been in power since 2017 it was miranda who decided that
7:22 am
a son should outstayed his welcome at the embassy in london we all know the fallout from the whistle pro was dragged out by the british police slapped with 18 criminal counts by washington now faces extradition to the u.s. and potentially a 175 years behind bars now coincidentally or not at the same time acquittals bank account got an almighty boost with a $4200000000.00 loan from the i.m.f. the international monetary fund where the u.s. has huge voting rights we all know friendships about give and take so at the end of the day what's a small national treasure when your allies go deep pockets. owes a merc is trade war against china gains momentum. one way continues to face scrutiny over spying allegations everything chinese is being treated with deep suspicion and that's causing some red faces in the west defense industry.
7:23 am
we are celebrating a lot of the for the purchase of many $35.00. dollars by. the way they say by the force of the world they knew that you had your choice. walk away is something that's very dangerous for them to their close ties to the chinese government of the time so when cyber espionage. i think it's bred it's not. bad but it's
7:24 am
a question of how bad is it. we have been completely and about the role of china and it is only now that people are beginning to wake up what people are concerned about and i'm one of those have anything with a chinese connection at least it ought to be noted and the risks need to be assessed to have in the world generation strike croft i think is really a cause for concern. because like all components that are inspected repeatedly each stage of manufacture additionally except for p.c.p. has made his ability or i said any sense to present information and there's limited no refuse to see them in the old program.
7:25 am
to a story working. a close eye on today in japan victims of a 1948 stir lies ation program are appealing a government compensation offer saying it didn't cover the gravity of the harm that victims suffered last month a court rejected their demand for more money because the 20 year statute of limitations of the law which allowed the government to forcibly sterilized disabled people was suspended in 1906 but compensation was only offered any of this year r.t. spoke to a relative of the victim who told us about the torment her sister in law had to go through. so no one of course i know my sister in law was sterilized when she was 15 years old while she was in the 3rd grade of junior high school until the age of 30 show off and suffered from domino pains when i 1st saw her really big scar that was when i knew something was very wrong in the old records i found it was written that
7:26 am
my sister underwent for sterilization due to her other 3 development disability however she had to the intellectual disability because of an overdose over this d. share she received much was a baby i don't believe my mother in law gave consent for their permission because their disability was not imperative she had also wished for her daughter to get married the law was aimed at preventing people with disabilities from having children tens of thousands how to undergo the procedure of which more than half were forced to do it against their will in many cases they didn't get any documentation to prove sterilization even took place in april compensation bill was passed which offered each victim $29000.00 despite rejecting that they did welcome a decision by the court to label the procedures on constitutional miskito a subtle again say she believes the government's measures are not. can you say
7:27 am
who are you can be the chief judge declared that the old eugene explore was unconstitutional he also showed that it was impossible for those who suffered from forced sterilization to demand an apology and compensation from the japanese government i feel as though paul amounts lack of interest in the problem in fact a dollar trial and meant to couldn't get a good result of the 20 victims who filed the lawsuit it's only my sister and one other woman who have managed to obtain official records relating to their sterilization the others don't have them it was a member of the japanese prominent that introduced the legislation that means the government is responsible for the matter i think the japanese government should offer a proper apology to the victims. ok is it a roman's turn to be blame for all of humanity's problems that's what peter guests are weighing up today and you don't have to wait too long to see what's ahead cross talks coming up in.

can. where did you work before you came here when you live well. in many us states capital punishment is still practiced convicted prisoners can spend years waiting for execution but most of the time the victims' families they are very much in favor of the death penalty there are some people because of what they did they have given up their rights as live among us somebody's been proven innocent up to years on death row and how many more exonerations is it going to take before we as a society realize that this is not working and we actually do something about. seemed wrong. just don't call. me. yet to stamp out this they become advocates and engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.
