you know when you. see if. you're. donald trump says it was a great honor meeting kim jong un face to face in north korea adding that a lot of progress was made although u.s. sanctions against pyongyang remain. in germany 3 men it charged in connection with the sexual abuse of more than 40 children with 2 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 tried to cover up its own negligence . and as pride month concludes

a new poll does reveal young americans are becoming less accepting of gay and lesbian people. good morning welcome just gone 10 o'clock here in moscow you're watching international now making history donald trump's become the 1st u.s. president to enter north korea after crossing the demarcation line between the 2 careers with his counterpart came jungmann said a lot of progress had been made during their talks but sanctions against pyongyang do remain in place well our senior correspondent for a gas stove 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

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 they shook hands again and talked him 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 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 his 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 denuclearization 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 by an. 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 they're killing 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 why 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 the big and hopefully sometime soon the world's most

militarized move dangerous board that will well i bet on the 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 the d.p. r. k. and they've already made remarks that that'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 played guilty the abuse reportedly took place over a number of years at a campsite in the small german town of between them the men are accused of some 450 cases of child abuse the local authorities have come under fire for failing to act .

well the majority of the abuse was perpetrated by a single suspect identified only as andrea's feet he's accused of almost 300 sex crimes against 23 children the fences a believed to have been committed in 1000 $998.00 and them between 282018 the police are accused also of inaction in the face of mounting evidence of abuse over the years the authorities are also claims have lost less evidence disappear story for example back in february they admitted losing almost a terabyte of evidence one of the children's representatives says that the way they were questioned was inappropriate for their age well the authorities themselves do acknowledge there was a police failure calling the situation at a bar called the region's interior minister says this was worse than negligence and should never happen again we spoke to one of the victim's lawyers about the

mistakes that were. 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 interview at a police station that my opinion matters are 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 try to cover up its own negligence. 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 protest germany is currently using a record amount of renewable energy where the alternative source is covering almost half of electricity consumption this year but critics do say switching to renewable energy wealth easing out nuclear power is too ambitious as peter oliver 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 and 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 as meant the. coal activists who are in favor of nuclear say the energy source is suffering from a bad reputation and that the decision to phase out nuclear energy is actually counterproductive to a mission goals and that the decision was made for political not scientific reasons people are misinformed about nokia and they think it's extremely risky but just the opposite is true the reason for praising 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 free policy last 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 of the chernobyl disaster as against the nuclear safety issues brought up but is that fair 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 angela merkel's own party have said they

would rather see coal powered binde while nuclear remained 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 and lower bills to 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. the same level of prizes 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 is. is generated by you guessed it nuclear power peter all about r.t. germany. it was pride month wraps up around the world the l g b t community in the u.s. does seem divided with competing rallies being held amid claims the main event has become too commercialized the reclaim pride coalition held a separate march with quote no corporate floats and no police says that the official event no longer addresses the political struggles of the community under the trumpet ministration remodelling you suggest a sharp decline in acceptance of gay and lesbian people among young americans

according to the survey in 2018 fewer people aged 18 to 34 felt comfortable interacting with people compared with the year before while the number feeling uncomfortable with a relative coming out increased more americans to also didn't like the idea of gay issues being taught at school on the other hand the acceptance rate there among people age 72 and over was higher than the previous year now the number of hate crimes against the bt community also rose sharply in recent years according to the f.b.i. there was a 17 percent spike in 2017 while a rights group reports that $26.00 members of the transgender community were murdered last year we got reaction to the decline in tolerance from a community representative and also the author of the study on except it's least munisteri experiencing could be leading to this erosion it's in you know that it

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 l g b t activist brandon trackers says that radicals are turning people against the community. our community has been overtaken by a very sort of extremist very political faction that has tried to essentially politicize everything under the umbrella. 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 a lot of people in the tea community feel uncomfortable once it is put out into the internet and to be the atmosphere that you are a racist or bigot or

a hate group or whatever it lives and on the internet and so then other people in the future will use that against you to say well you can come here we should and here we will slug you because there's always those already been in the south but. still to come this hour is the leading computer. scientists against the trunk ministrations. some goods from china that's among the stories to come. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race off and spearing dramatic developments only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful

very critical time time to sit down and talk. real crisis metaphysic crisis and they sure. as a scale of natural disaster and guns are just like malaysia. and they bring to this. is the. year when japan. for the problem of you say a group of substances which is a rather big saw that governments and international organisations do not cover enough time to change gradually.

that again the leading make is of computer game consoles and intend and microsoft to join forces against the trumpet ministrations new tariffs 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 made in china and console makers say a 25 percent tariff could harm the industry they warned 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 man louis told us that donald trump underestimates how bad his tariffs

would be for the u.s. . every. president trump card on the stand oh i don't know 60 percent of adult population us i'll be your game players gamers community originated on the 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 the feel very bad decision from mr trump and obviously our hard low gave us. 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

raised the issue at a meeting between the 5 brics nations during the g 20 summit. the joint work between the brics countries and shifting to trade using our own national currencies is moving along world well to cut their use of global currencies like the dollar and you are over 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 or swith claims to be politically neutral but has repeatedly blocked access to russian and chinese banks due to u.s. sanctions russia and china already have their own alternative payment systems that they are working to develop in ruble and the rand financial instruments and then in a similar development you you it's created a settlement platform called instead to allow firms to continue trading with iran bypassing u.s. sanctions the u.s.

has expressed its concern over the move or the professor of political economy 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 if 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 u.s. will stand by and do nothing if the brics join the beginning of the china russia payment system 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 counteraction overtly and covertly here to discourage it you know the use of sanctions is a short term weapon end 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 through another country then other countries are going to move further in that direction in years past weekend's liberal policies and that does and you need to build is a rising political star could change the policies for chains. binny has however shocked many with. more his own quarter 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 fiji 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 service 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 or 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 seventies 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 it would be receiving a split if i'd continued 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 races in sweden despite her skin color i've always thought the neon because sunni's too far to the right to be liberal now she is showing it openly this cannot be the way forward. problem is that she wants to open the door for racists so they can form more is really a right wing government somebody might take all the boxes when it comes to the

liberal party's commitment to tolerance but for some people there's just no pleasing them. some news just in a powerful blasts rocked the afghan capital kabul reportedly killing dozens of people the local media say a further 53 people were injured the explosion happened near the u.s. and the u.k. embassies that russia police suspect the blast was caused by a car bomb or no no group as it makes it safe being behind it. watching all say thank you company this morning we'll have the latest on that news from kabul because of the stories too in the headlines at the top of the. politicians do. they put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected.

so if you want to be president. or some want to. have to go right to be for us this is what before 3 of them or 10 people that i'm interested in the wives of. the ship. you know world of big partisan movies a 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 taught critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now. watching closely watching the hawks.

this is a sticker from the water bottle phone in the stomach of the fish the brand is part 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. special projects funded. on. the mountains of waste only grow.

a low in welcome across talk we're all things are considered i'm peter lavelle u.s. china talks are back on track when a 2nd front is opened up the u.s. europe trade is heading into a storm iran is again in the center of the debate also the circus has come to town and it's called the democratic primary. cross talking some real news i'm joined by my guest here in moscow dimitri bobbitt she's a political analyst and editor at you know smee internet media project and. in london we cross to marcus papadopoulos he is the editor of politics 1st magazine our gentleman cross type rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want

and i always appreciate a let's go to markets 1st in london we the resumption of u.s. china trade talks is taking a lot of headlines as it should it's a very important issue on the back of the g. 20 but we have this special purpose vehicle being established is established now in europe to bypass the american swiss system for the europeans to trade with iran i wonder when the donald is back in washington and how he's going to respond to that because i think we all know how he will go ahead marcus the introduction of the instep payment system by the europeans as a way of trying to circumvent the american restrictions on countries wanting to trade with iran and the insects payment system is not only a goodwill gesture by the european institute on it is also the europeans trying to keep it on in the j.c. you know a do you and it is also a way of the europeans retaining access to the iranian markets which after all is

an important market for europe in particular for countries like germany and france but it's paid for the insteps payment system to be sustainable and effective it must apply to oil purchase and because don't trump site sanctions on iran which are all complete the most dangerous that america has has placed iran over the last 40 years ago in 3 wrongs jocular and that juggler is iran's ability to export oil if the european payment system does not apply to the purchases by other countries also it rainin oil and then i do strongly suspect that it ran or will eventually leave the j.c. you know a and also the iranian economy will be in serious trouble because donald trump doesn't.
