yanks this is what happens to pensions in britain. world leaders are continuing to. this year is expected to be dominated by trade tensions the global climate and the threat of conflict in the persian gulf. in the run up to the president. threatening china with a further $300000000.00 worth of. complaints to u.s. farmers are bearing the brunt of. the. trade war i think your one of the casualties they are. also ahead iran's foreign minister zarif accuses the.

by challenging traditional values on promoting gender equality reaction. a lot of these women it has been their position and their desire to see a change within their country beyond the commercial simply gives them a platform to add enhance their voice that they've already. putting any women at risk with their commercial and they're a liberal american. just after midday in brasilia. 6 in the evening right here in moscow this thursday june the 27th welcome to our 2 international our top story the leaders of the world's

major powers have started arriving in japan for the g. 20 summit which beacons on friday they're facing a rough the challenges at this year's forum including the. u.s. china trade disputes deteriorating security situation in the persian gulf president putin will be among the heads of state in attendance and is expected to meet with donald trump the sidelines with more from osaka pierce and the potential the us president donald trump made it to japan quicker than his russian counterpart vladimir putin not that it was a race but still the u.s. president's plane touched down at the airport in osaka just before sunset and i'll tell you what the american leader had something to say about the talks even before he left america even before he boarded air force one i'll have a very good conversation with what i said it is none of your business there's a possibility of

a meeting with russia meeting with china meeting with many countries were meeting with many countries now just compare that to donald trump's words 7 months ago compare that to what he said right before he headed to argentina which hosted the g 20 in 2018. based on the fact that the ships and sailors have not been returned to ukraine from russia i have decided it would be best for all parties concerned to cancel my previously scheduled meeting in argentina with president vladimir putin that was mr trump referring to the current strait incident last year when ukrainian vessels were trying to sail through the straits between crimea and mainland russia but in any case how was that for a change in tone last year it was widely thought that president trawled chose not to sit down with president putin because he was allegedly fearing a backlash back home from the media and from quite

a few politicians and there is barely any doubts that they would have destroyed him otherwise for what they call not being able to stand up to everything that the kremlin was up to well some things definitely changed this year the confirmation that the whole get together will happen from both the white house and the kremlin old he came a couple of days ago and we heard from both administrations that the leaders will discuss the usual iran syria ukraine north korea and venezuela and let's hope that nothing will change at the very last moment besides as i can tell you that i've had a chance to talk to one of the members of the russian delegation earlier on thursday she was physically present and the room where the talks are going to happen it's a rather small room with plain white walls the only decorations there will be the

flags that's of course a tradition and also the logo of the summit so nothing lavish there at all so hard that around 20 journalists will be let inside to hear the 1st minute or 2 of these discussions 2 of these. but this short period of time will end up being someone's business regardless of what mr trump thinks. through some of the big issues ahead there let's cross live to beijing and to center for international business ethics director chang aloof for his take you're very welcome to the program yet lots of hugely significant talks ahead is near what do you think will be the primary focus these next 2 days. well. as the typical would you turn to. some ambitious agenda but definitely china

u.s. trade is really closed on the mall. because the whole world has been watching what can really be up to no despite all the hoarding and all the threats. posed by. what is china's stand so the. outcome whether it's a positive or negative is going to impact the whole role they seem sound of both sides are really willing to engage that's unfortunate so i sold the stock market market as a rally but. there is still a lot of on a lot of uncertainty so people do feel very anxious about the are you how confident are you that we may see some progress in the u.s. china trade or as you say you know what point is it going to become too damaging to actually continue pushing ahead with. well i think one good case that i was

set up. over the last 2 g. 20 in argentina where the most of the presidents. really agree to a cease fire put on hold the terror of the haitian but over the last 4 months it seems that the u.s. house really stepping up their efforts and also there are threats against china to push china to have. a state run there by the last moment but i think that's why underestimation of the chinese will and also i asked immersion of the chinese economic resilience that you know he thought that the war is going to be easily went on out and not so he asked to change his attitude and softened his tone and work for something about it can be equalized the voting of

the other instead of creating the terms on trying to we just as you're speaking about chang we're looking at some of the leaders who are arriving hours ago including donald trump now he's gone to a socket essentially with all guns blazing you know criticizing i'm looking at a list here terminate the e.u. japan how do likely are we to see him further eliminating his international partners at this or will he try to be more diplomatic and you know come up with any full power which be seen perhaps as a victory for him. well if you really expect him to change his style you know he need to change to simon and so therefore he's do you know a really big. you know levitch style his bullish type o. style he can really you know bring up something that can be considered various

threatening to seek for the last minute benefit but. again their reality is that you know all the leaders of the they are wise enough they are able to see you know what is really hate going on there he leaves out what are really the weak on so that can only push the leaders of other nations to work closer such as the good of all of the china and russia are working more closely with the vote of the about her own role and to how our closer deal a larger deal on the energy cooperation they said one of the last $11.00 of this proposed meeting at supposed to happen on the sidelines of tween president trump unflawed a mirror what do you think both sides will be looking from not meeting.

despite all of. the not the is a quick learner he learned that a. global flood right we just connection issue there are some of the chang lou just there we can't really hear him but we got a we got the gist of his main points there about the next 2 days in osaka we've been speaking to the center for international business ethics director chang lou the night before jetting off to japan donald trump threatened to hit all remaining imports of chinese goods to the u.s. with target if a trade deal is not struck in osaka. they want to make you feel they want to make you feel more than i do let me put it back like a they want to make a deal i've only done phase one phase one is 25 percent of 250000000000 i haven't done phase 2 years now phase 2 doesn't have to be 25 percent it could be 10 percent which people can absolutely handle well the u.s. has so far imposed some 2 $150000000000.00 worth of chinese imports over what it

sees as unfair trade practices among washington's concerns are beijing subsidies to chinese firms its restrictions on competition and its alleged intellectual property theft china for its part has placed import taxes on $110000000000.00 worth of american goods to the us i grew cultural sector particularly hard that china is its largest export market accounting for some 20 percent of overseas sales in 27 picking up the story at the. one section of the u.s. economy is certainly on edge and that is the agricultural sector farmers have long been upheld as almost sacred in america khana from the writings of thomas jefferson idealizing the yeoman to the iconic speech of paul harvey delivered in 1978 and on the age they looked down on his planet paradise and said i need a caretaker so god made a farmer god sent i need somebody with me to get up before dawn milk cows were told

to go in the fields milk cows again eat supper then go to town and stay fashion that night at a meeting of the school board so god made a farmer now you would think that farmers would be a central focus of drums promise to make america great again after all it was the agricultural states like iowa wisconsin and minnesota where trump won big however at this point as the trade war with china continues farmers aren't winning they're hurting bad. farmer. trade war i think they are one of the casualties they are the trade disruption yes but trump says the farmers should just take it after all it's for their own good in the long term we were going to help out a farmers we will ensure that our farmers get the relief they need and very very quickly. it's a good time to be a farmer this claim doesn't match the actual numbers look at soybeans corn and wheat production at this point the midwestern heartland of the united states is

already suffering from d.m. dust realisation and now it's seeing its agricultural base plummet the income of american farmers has dropped to half of what it was in 2013 and the rate of debt of farmers has reached $427000000000.00 the highest it's been since the farm crisis of the 1980 s. farmers are also defaulting on their loans left and right the highest rate that it has been in 7 years and 3 months a lot of us were forced to take loans to keep our businesses afloat but yet some businesses were so far and the banks wouldn't give them their operating loans for the your the prices for greens and stuff have gone down significantly that we're unable to pay more of our bills and get the banks paid off to get our loans back in check with the banks that they don't threaten to shut us down the mood's a nigger culture community are very stressful it's theirs angers everything else our plaything window of this year has been so long from the wet spring that we've had half the farmers don't even have all their crops they need to feed their animals to make

a livelihood this year in the growing it's very stressful and very irritating now farmers received a $16000000000.00 subsidy in the hopes of making up for what they cannot sell to china but it was only a drop in the bucket the bread basket at the center of the american economy seems to now be on the chopping block as trump plays his art of the deal game with the 2nd largest economy on earth a lot of voices have to be asking how much longer. r.t. new york the g 20 summit will also be overshadowed to some extent by the crisis in the persian gulf iran's foreign minister zarif sharply criticized double trouble when say over the u.s. presidents threats to annihilate its country. president trump should remember that we don't live in the 18th century is the united nations tried to force you to go and when asked again in the past 24 hours about the possibility of a war with iran mr trump boasted it would be

a quick affair but stressed he doesn't want a conflict. something should happen where diverse strong position it wouldn't last very long i can tell you that it would not last very long and i'm not talking boots on the ground i'm not talking we're going to send millions old use it but i'm just saying if something would happen wouldn't last very long. by the american leaders numerous warnings that iran could be heading for oh bless her ration the u.s. secretary of state might pump it was since he believes tehran is only responsible for the current crisis america's done everything it can to deescalate if there is a conflict if there is war if there is a kinetic activity it will be because the iranians made that choice america's pressure campaign against iran includes crippling sanctions on the deployment of additional troops and military resources to the middle east another is an important point because the president of iraq is just the latest high level figure in the region to comment on the situation he warns that the u.s.

will not be given permission to use his country to launch any kind of military action against neighboring countries including iran. the american troops the coalition troops in iraq again at the invitation of the iraqi government for the specific exclusive mission of fighting isis we do not want to be a staging post foot any hostile action against any of on neighbors including iran well it perhaps should be pointed out here the tensions really escalated between tehran and washington last year that was when the us abandoned the 2015 year clear deal a hard fought agreement out that here's the view of a notable iranian journalist on relations between the 2. the pressure or the approach that the americans or their allies have had toward iran has impact that this behavior iran now we are in this collection more than the region as a result of the united states withdrawal from the nuclear deal and then followed by

maximum pressure against tehran on the one side we're seeing the americans talking about negotiation on the other hand they're using militant threats as well as economic war against the country this shows inconsistency as well as i think i'm bigoted in their policies because i think donald trump is enjoying advisers who have conflict viewpoints towards iran and other international issues and this has caused this broad chaos to the white house in relation and is of iran the solution in the region needs cooperation and talks and diplomacy between different sides in the region this is the argument of iran. still to come this hour not for it by an american consumer giant has pushed the boundaries of tradition in pakistan we take a look at and plenty more besides including the reaction in moments. what

politicians do you should. put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected . so when you want to be president. some want to be. actually going to be right which is what would. really be good. interested in the washington. friendship. to shoot on between was. into ron there is no regional ally to restrain the us is worst tendencies with barbs traded and sanctions imposed what can stop the us from sliding into yet another middle east war.

we're going to st petersburg international economic forum and the topic of our panel is are we witnessing a paradigm shift in the global economic order answer of course is yes it's a matter of degree. history now that's got quite a lot of people talking a washing powder triggered a gender equality in pakistan the brand owned by american multinational procter and gamble opted to show women taking on traditionally meal role it's.

well those images have drummed up plenty of reaction on social media with some people even calling for the authorities to take against the print. boycotts burial where muslim and we love our culture or religion and no rituals the government should take strict action against ariel brand i miss my request to all my dear pakistanis that please boycott ariel the soonest possible because religion comes 1st and this is our responsibility to protect our religion boycott's ariel prime minister of pakistan we want ariel cloth washing detergents banned in pakistan immediately for driving and spreading anti islamic campaigns through media but we are some media commentators whether they detergent odd was right to push the boundaries of social norms in pakistan. i don't think it's a big u.s. companies job to insert themselves into pakistani culture or if it was women

speaking up against their own culture that would be one thing but i feel that it's very wrong for a western company to come in and insert themselves in a culture that maybe isn't adapted the same way that american culture has and a lot of these women it has been their position and their desire to see a change within their country their desire has been for women to have more rights to you know education to financial stability financial empowerment that's come from within the culture so for these women to be on the commercial simply gives them a platform to add enhanced their voice that they've already been using this kirshner may set back that agenda this commercial may set back that initiative for these women this commercial may create children are you married at the age of would it be a gallon can it be i understand how much but we're not sure brady and peyton are going to have marilyn company in jail getting them said are willing to you know why

why you came saying how i see any women i think they're really pushing the envelope when they're dealing with sharia law and just like i don't want sharia law to come here to america and take over my western american values i don't necessarily think i think it's very confrontational to go into a country that does have shari'a and insert western values there has never in the history i'm just as if you're going to acknowledge that i'm type of knowledge that without women in america who are willing to speak you're not going to acknowledge if we were in america in the 1920 if it were not about women sitting up it was not america up against not america if we were in america at its peak you would tell that it is and not to marilyn to speak up against play very because it would put people at risk of being lynched well companies of challenge them at times overlooked staunchly conservative values and all that good. coca-cola came under fire for a video showing a woman driving in saudi arabia critics described it as smoothing over the

oppression women faced in the kingdom but another telling specialist told us that something the nature of the industry. brands need to find a way to cook through the muscle humiliation. and or sell by one way of doing that is to be controversial and that means not objective if they don't cook through if they don't have impact they can't succeed in getting consumers to make choices and . they will offend a number of people going to doing so but it's very serious reaching a group that's marketing and potentially increasing sales which. when you get down to it that's there and then runs on that robots why they exist and they have to make profits that so we consume and. invite them into their. amounts what we're doing very creatively. for the u.s. national security agency has reportedly been on must in yet another case of illegal

surveillance a new report has claimed the n.s.a. has been collecting the phone data of citizens without proper authorization these documents only confirm that the surveillance program is beyond redemption and should be shut down for good the n.s.a.'s collection of americans call records is too sweeping the compliance problems too many and evidence of the program has value all but nonexistent there is no justification for leaving the surveillance power in the n.s.a.'s hands. well according to the american civil liberties union n.s.a. data collection picked last october with the agency using an all name mobile company to gather the information now the scale of the over collection the specifics of the data that was swept off it's pretty much on clear at this point this comes on the back of a very similar incident that took place in 2015 buck then data on hundreds of millions of phone calls was picked up including time duration on it was later

claimed that all the information had been deleted the n.s.a. has declined to comment on the latest case but called the entire situation on the intentional mistake while n.s.a. lawfully so data pertaining to foreign power engage in international terrorism to provide to produce an accurate data and data beyond which and i say so frankly i wouldn't trust anything they're telling you koblick lee because if you notice if you look back through that time and look at all the testimony in the public record . in congress the vast majority of it's been lies from the intelligence community i mean you know from clapper through alexander all of them they don't own up to what they're really doing under the upstream program they're collecting all the e-mails all the chatter on everything on the fiber optic network as well as the you know all the phone calls which means they get the metal data as well as the content of the phone calls as well there is no oversight of the other program none whatsoever

because even the f.b.i. and the da and the cia access that data directly they don't they don't have any oversight of what they're doing with it no country in the world can trust their intelligence agencies once they once they close those secret doors they don't really know they only know what the secret intelligence agencies will tell them they don't know any more than that and they can't really verify anything that those agencies are doing. it is our law for now but next it's a $1000000000.00 industry but just what is in the food our pets are charging to and on and is that actually what it say's on the tin our documentary pet food starts in moments. i don't want to talk to a news agency forgive me you'll have to find someone to. take

me. going to. see into that where.

i think. it's a. move towards we are the. people. we are. you know world big partisan of the movies a lot of things and conspiracy it's time to wait to be deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need

to stop slamming the door on the shouting past each other it's hard for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. the f.t.'s primary role is in regulation of what the label says is and there is actually in the us the f.d.a. is not regulating quality production sourcing any of those things they're regulating that what you say is on the label is actually on the label the most shocking thing about the pet food industry that that has remained since basically i started doing this work is the f.d.a. compliance policy i still cannot understand how and industry is provided by a federal tax supported organization loopholes to avoid federal law

if you go to the f.d.a. website and just type in compliance policies and then scroll down the page to hand feed and and there's one after another they allow contamination by pesticides contamination by industrial chemicals contamination by natural toxins contamination filth micro biological contamination over tolerance for permanent drug residues. it's incredible. the law says that can be but the compliance policy says don't worry go ahead we won't enforce. for all practical purposes there's nobody looking out for the average guy in 2006 the mystery illness began to sicken thousands of pets across the united states and canada thrusting the industry into the spotlight like never before.
