it's fun to meet. old we all know and you guessed that easy and very pretty well from the mountains of moist only grow higher. the headlines this hour donald trump says it was a great honor meeting kim jong un face to face in north korea adding there's a lot of progress was made although u.s. sanctions against pyongyang remain. in germany 3 men are charged in connection with the sexual abuse of more than 40 children pleading guilty a lawyer for one of the victims tells us the authorities failed the children. it is simply unacceptable for a department to react in this manner and then try to cover up his own negligence and his pride month concludes competing l g p t rallies in new york highlight divisions within the community that is a new poll reveals young americans are becoming less accepting of gay and lesbian

people. hello good morning it's 9 o'clock here in moscow you're watching r.t. international now making history donald trump has become the 1st u.s. president to enter north korea after crossing the demarcation line between the 2 careers with his counterpart kim jong un trump said a lot of progress had been made during their talks but sanctions against pyongyang do remain in place our senior correspondent explains now whether the symbolic meeting could affect the almost total economic blockade of north korea. for all the buzz hype and the coverage denuclearization was going nowhere it had stalled again despite all the summits and all the handshakes perhaps what it needed was something crazy something radical.

the 1st sitting u.s. president to visit north korea who would have thought the world's most militarized border to boot and they shook hands again and talked german and trump trying to revive denuclearization efforts that were clinically dead made some progress so we had to start small form teams to find common ground little things that could lead to bigger ones and spoiling everything and as is tradition now those sanctions this thing on memory are some point look i'm looking forward to taking well i don't like sanctions bring on this country i'm looking forward but the sanctions remain

useful but at some point during the negotiation things can happen and that's what we'll be talking about promises promises it was sanctions the torpedoed the last summit and the state says trump until this verified d.m.u. clear eyes ation progress however long that takes and that's what bugs north korea how can 2 sides have meaningful honest discussions when one of them is on its knees being strangled by the this is a manifestation of the most extreme hostile acts by the united states all of you speak clearly to the fact that the world dream of the united states to bring us to our knees. and means of sanctions and pressure has not changed at all but grows even more undisguised now factor in those thousands of u.s. troops stationed in south korea with guns trained in the north and you'll understand why trust is well it isn't their feeling young knows it's history

too many nations that have gone through denuclearization with then invaded obama by the us i doubt kim jong un wants to join that club america fears north korea is just needing the month to get out from under those sanctions they cade's of talks in the games have stuck by the nukes we don't expect chairman kim to tell the truth that's where we're going to verify any denuclearization that takes place that's why we will ensure that we see actual on the ground on the ground outcomes we're not going to take anyone's word for it it's not all doom and gloom though this is an ancient conflict by modern standards and it was never going to be solved overnight they need to talk and that's what they're doing and they seem to get it now that you start small and build up that big and hopefully sometime soon the world's most militarized dangerous board that will well i bet on become any less tense but at

least they'll be no nuclear standoff to worry about the style of negotiations that the u.s. is trying to impart here on these on these talks is that they want full compliance from pyongyang before they will consider lifting sanctions if this isn't just about the denuclearization of the korean peninsula i believe that what washington is attempting to do here is build a template of negotiations that they hope will be successful and that they will then be able to transfer a similar sort of arrangement with regards to iran and that is the u.s. wants full access to all facilities. military facilities in d p r k and they've already made remarks that it's a precondition for any kind of a deal with iran in other words to get them back on board with the j c p a way they want full access to all iranian facilities and they're not going to get

that iran will not sort of compromise its national security to u.s. intelligence to that degree specifically with all the threats that have been going on. to germany now where 3 men have been charged in connection with the sexual abuse of more than 40 children aged between 3 and 14 years old 2 of the suspects have pleaded guilty the abuse reportedly took place over a number of used at a campsite in the small german town of lubed between them the men are accused of some 450 cases of child abuse the local authorities have come under fire for failing to act.

the majority of the abuse was perpetrated by a single suspect identified only as andrea speaking he's accused of almost 300 sex crimes against 23 children the offenses a believed to have been committed in 1908 in them between 282018 the police are accused of inaction in the face of mounting evidence of abuse over the years the authorities are also claim to let evidence disappear back in february for example they did me losing almost a terabyte of evidence one of the children's representative says the way they were questioned see was inappropriate for their age and the authorities themselves acknowledged there was a police failure calling the situation at a bar called the region's interior minister says that this was worse than negligence and should never happen again we spoke to one of the victim's lawyers about mistakes that were made. if you look we have seen numerous flaws the most

terrifying is the disappearance of $155.00 c.d.'s from a secure police station we're talking about the c.d.'s which were found at the campsite in the main suspects trailer it turned out that the people with prior convictions for possession of child pornography were working at that police station and still are as for the interrogation of the children they were questioned at the police station but this is not what should have happened there are specific ways in which children can be questioned and it involves support from social services and the establishment of a trusting relationship it should not happen as an interviewer to police station it my opinion matters were allowed to escalate because of the careless approach to information on child pornography and paedophilia and the department's employees lack of awareness it is simply unacceptable for a department to react in this manner and then tried to cover up its own negligence . now sweden's liberal party has elected a new leader it was a rising political star who could change the party's fortunes on cosa boonie has

however shocked many with her views on the quarter as more for some. might have seemed perfect to lead sweden's liberal party she's black she's an immigrant but actually she's pretty inconvenient at least for a number of her colleagues who are leaving in protest. now that i thought ditto were i'm leaving the liberal stuff to 52 years as a member i've always been a social liberal and will remain so but with a new direction there is no place for me it is with great sadness that the fundamental social liberal values that have been so important to me in my political career for many years and now it's risk of being a voted in favor of a credit down invest e.g. policy criminal care and perhaps even in social policy areas it's all because sunni is just a little too far to the right sure she's been to gay pride parades even served as sweden's minister for gender equality but when it comes to multiculturalism she said she wants to quote bury it in 2006 the swedish m.p.

proposed job ban for girls under 15 and exams to stop female genital mutilation the book she authored shines a spotlight on the threat on our violence poses to women and now so one has even taken to criticizing sweden's handling of migration it has been shown that about half of those who applied for asylum in sweden in recent years do not have the right criteria for asylum the finances that should be located abroad remain in sweden because young migrants aris coming here thinking that they can probably stay anyway despite her controversial views on migration you'd think protecting females both young and old would be a platform anyone could get behind especially when the party's unity is so fragile sydney's prime opponent even threw in the towel just to keep the peace. my aim was always to unite the party but in a situation where many seem to want a different political orientation than the one i was seeking he would be receiving a split if i'd continue my candidacy and while his decision may have saved the

party in the short term its supporters on the internet are not convinced. i can't stand her i must not tolerate what she's saying she's the worst traces in sweden despite her skin color. i've always thought the neon cusa boonies too far to the right to be liberal now she is showing it openly this cannot be the way forward. because problem is that she wants to open the door for racists so they can form more is really a right wing government so really my tick all the boxes when it comes to the liberal party's commitment to tolerance but for some people there's just no pleasing them. now the german government has promised to shut down all its nuclear reactors by 2022 sparking a debate about the energy future of the country amid frequent environmental protests germany is currently using a record amount of renewable energy with alternative sources covering almost half of electricity consumption this year but critics do say switching to renewable

energy while phasing out nuclear power is too ambitious peter all of reports. germany has set some targets when it comes to cutting emissions from energy production the federal government is committed to a 55 percent reduction in 1990 levels of greenhouse gases by 2030 when it comes to the climate in energy in germany things are heating up just this weekend hundreds of protesters broke through a police line to demonstrate against the mining a brown coal in the west of the country. i. knew i did. since german chancellor angela merkel said she would shut down the country's nuclear power plants by 2022 in the wake of the fukushima nuclear disaster in japan the idea is that renewables like wind and solar power would take up the slack but when you phase out nuclear and the wind doesn't blow the sun doesn't shine you have

to replace not energy in the grid not is meant more coal activists who favor of nuclear say the energy source is suffering from a bad reputation and the decision to phase out nuclear energy is actually counterproductive to emission goals and that the decision was made for political not scientific reasons people are misinformed about nokia and i think it's extremely risky but just the opposite is true the reason for phasing out nuclear clearly politically only science says if you want to go carbon free you have to use carbon free power sources and nuclear is the most effective carbon for you paula sauce along with nuclear waste safety is one of the major concerns of nuclear critics the huge recent popularity of h.b.o.'s dramatize ation as the chernobyl disaster as against the safety issues brought up that is that this was

clearly the most dramatic and serious nuclear accident. but. representative for modern nuclear energy it is not that accident which happened more than 30 years ago does not mean anything. to modern reactor technology it's not just activists that want to see the nuclear phase out next huge names from the german automobile industry have said they would like to see the use of nuclear power extended also key figures in german business saying that it would benefit both consumers and industry financially and even members of angler merkel's own party have said they would rather see coal powered binde while nuclear remains however those that are in favor of nuclear power say it would be worth it in the short term to pay more for energy for in the long to receiving clean energy sources

that will bill's short term effects of course leads to increasing prices but these . increases are still affordable in the long term we would expect especially from tucson and showed you could expect. this saying level of prices that we had in 2010 that means in the long run we have a comparative advantage nuclear power could set to be phased out here in germany in the next couple of years even if renewable energy isn't at the stage to take up the slack one of the reasons for this is the power companies here if they could back significantly or cut back altogether when it comes to research and development in the nucleus sector also once the decommissioning process has begun well many sites simply can't be used again that means that once nuclear is gone it's gone for good without having to build brand new prohibitively expensive infrastructure and what

that means is well germany would have to import more energy from its neighbors some of that energy of course. generated by you guessed it nuclear power peter all of germany. still ahead this is it game over leading computer console makers have signed a joint letter against the trump administration's new proposed tariffs on goods from china that's among the stories to come just after the break. max kaiser one more of my guide to financial survival this is. a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right these hedge funds are simply not accountable and we're just. totally destabilize the global economy you

need to protect yourself and get informed as. manufactured. to public wealth. when the ruling class is the project. of the final larry. king or middle of the room.

welcome back i was quite a month does wrap up around the world the community in the u.s. does seem to be divided with competing rallies being held there made claims the main event has become too commercialized the reclaim pride coalition held a separate march in new york with quote no corporate and no police says the official event no longer addresses the political struggles of the community under the trumpet ministration meanwhile a new report suggests a sharp decline in acceptance of gay and lesbian people among young americans according to the 2018 fewer people aged 18 to 34 felt comfortable interact. with elegy bt people compared with the year before while the number feeling uncomfortable with a relative coming out or so growth rose more young americans also didn't like the idea of gay issues being taught in school and on the other hand the exceptions rate among people age 72 and over was higher than the previous year while the number of

hate crimes against bt people is also on the increase sharply in recent years too according to the f.b.i. there was a 17 percent spike in 2017 while the rights group reports that 26 members of the transgender community were murdered last year we've got reaction to the decline in tolerance from a community representative and from the author of the study on acceptance the least munisteri experiencing could be leading to this aversion it's a new nose that takes time for people to understand our job is to educate about nonconformity we count of the merits of young people are more progressive intolerant these numbers are very alarming and signal a looming social crisis in discrimination what we took to the streets to get more reaction. but humanity it's about love it's about acceptance. until we accept force is going to be opposers and of course is going to be you know

different trends that occur but i think overall it's actually positive they just so strongly believe in that and as long as they're not hurting anybody our lives are not going acid homophobia and the white supremacy and phobia are becoming more and more accepted like nationally in our entire government so probably young people are seeing that and thinking that it's ok our community has been overtaken by a very sort of extremist. political faction that has tried to essentially politicize everything under the umbrella of. there is sort of this more extremist progressive faction that has really overreached i think they've made a lot of people uncomfortable i think in a lot of people in the tea community. once it is put out into the internet and to be at most fear that you are a racist or bigot or

a hate group or whatever it lives on the internet and so then other people in the future will use that against you to say well you can't come here and here we want to live here because there's always those already been in the southwest. now they're leading make use of compete against. microsoft to join forces against the trumpet ministrations. on goods from china. the video game console supply chain has developed in china over many years of investments by our companies and our partners it would cause significant supply chain disruption to shift sourcing entirely to the united states' referred country and it would increase costs even beyond the cost of the proposed tariffs on products that are already manufactured under tight margin conditions where 96 percent of game console sold in the u.s.

are actually made in china and console makers things say 25 percent tariff could harm the industry they warn that prices would have to be height which would lead to a fall in sales worth an estimated $350000000.00 every year game and technology expert auto. louis told us that donald trump under estimates how bad his terrorists would be for the u.s. if we. president trump card on the stand oh i don't know 60 percent of adult population us i would be a game players gamers community originated on these situations and we'll push a lot of pressure to mr trump and obviously the huge companies microsoft sony game go play in everything we shall love the good leak out a lot of influence for your $3400000000.00 industry around the world so i think very bad decision from mr trump.

meanwhile russia and china have agreed to increase trade in their own national currencies reducing their reliance on the u.s. dollar currently only 10 percent of trade between the 2 countries is conducted in roubles and u.n. but under the new deal that figure will rise to 50 percent the russian president's raised the issue with a meeting between the 5 brics nations during the g 20 summit. the joint work between the brics countries and shifting to trade using their own national currencies is moving along world well to cut their use of global currencies like the dollar and euro russia and china will have to avoid swift which is the world's largest payment system it is used 511000 financial institutions in $200.00 countries and is heavily reliant on the dollar the organization organization does claim to uphold political neutrality but has repeatedly blocked access to russian and chinese banks to to u.s.

sanctions russia and china already have their own alternative payment systems and they are working on developing ruble a new one financial instruments and in a similar development to the e.u. has created a settlement platform called in stakes to allow firms to continue trading with iran bypassing u.s. sanctions the u.s. has expressed its concern though over the move well professor of political economy from st mary's college jack told us that this initiative might go further if the u.s. continues its sanctions policy. well it's only at the very beginning and we're talking only about 2 countries they're fairly large countries it could be a significant amount of the trade in non-dollar currencies or in crime you know are still the global currency but i think it will be a fight with the brics whether the us won't stand by and do nothing if the brics are joined in the china russia payment system they won't be using to do it the u.s.

is not going to stand by and let this the centerpiece of its global economic empire . slip from its fingers it will take counter actions overtly and covertly here to discourage it you know the use of sanctions is a short term weapon and game here for the united states in trouble loves it but you know long term it may come back and bite the u.s. if it pushes too hard i think and if the u.s. continues with strong arming with sanctions whenever it wants something from another country then other countries are going to move further in that direction what is the news from here or not hey we're back with more at the top of the hour. what politicians do. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected

. so when you want to be president and you. want to. have to go right to due process it's like when the full story in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters in that. place should all. you know world of big partisan movies lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig 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. and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. exists is a stake for the water bottle thrown in the stomach of the fish the brand is spawns

of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers there are the bad ones there the litter bugs are throwing this away industry should be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. as soon as. the new ones at national projects funding me. on i knew that that is the end of it for the teeth of fun now the mountains of waste only grow heigho.

time after time say we're going underground 51 years to the day the us deep state established the phoenix program targeting civilians with rape torture and murder to prevent the unification of vietnam coming up in the show after president trump endorsed good friend boris johnson we speak to former foreign policy advisor to donald trump george papadopoulos who says the former foreign secretary and frontrunner to be next week 8 pm was partying with alleged russian agents during the miller investigation and in full the 1st interview given by britain's shadow fire and emergencies minister since his reinstatement in germany corbin's labor party chris williamson about how he wants to work with the board of deputies of british jews in a labor government after boris johnson or jeremy hunt is defeated at the ballot bowl all the smoke coming up in today's going underground the 1st today marks 73 years since the usa did this.

go. on the topic bomb have been. today the legacy of u.s. detonation of nuclear weapons in the south pacific is threatening yet more life thanks to the climate emergency but unlike harry truman president trump is arguably more concerned about human life he claimed he saved 150 lives by not bombing iran not bombing a country is arguably not what could have been expected from a hillary clinton white house nevertheless for those who supported the democrats hawk trump was elected not by the people but by the kremlin this is session fanned by mainstream media led to the jailing of a member of donald trump's foreign policy advisory panel is a name is george papadopoulos his new book deep state. it's how i got caught in the cross has of the plot to bring down president trump details how he did time for deleting his facebook account he joins me now from los angeles george welcome to going on the ground if any before any of our view is think that you work with the

russians mainstream media talking about that fee is just to say always in the book you make it clear you consider yourself an american patriots i'm going to begin. at the beginning of the book is it would but with boris johnson who's tipped to be the next prime minister here in britain how on earth did you get into a situation where you were asking an f.b.i. agent whether they had contacted boris johnson that's that's a great point and thank you very much for having me what you're referring to is a meeting i had with the moeller team in december of 20172 months after my name one public regarding my guilty plea and i was in discussions with team basically trying to actually understand what was happening in my case because at that point i started to have contacts by various reporters who were telling me that my story wasn't adding up the way that my status of a.
