one to take the 1st step i am talking about the european union after that russia will be able to repeal its countermeasures it is our hope that common sense will eventually prevail and europe will prioritize its own interests rather than follow instructions given by somebody else so here is an important message that came from the italian prime minister mr conte before that italy is willing to make that 1st step but the taliban leader for now is confident that the lifting of sanctions is very unlikely because the general vision of the european union remains the same unilateral actions within the framework of the current european mechanism would not produce any result even for russia that is why we are working to involve all parties in a constructive dialogue however mr putin in that interview that i mentioned reminded that still economic ties between russia and italy are on the rise it's

the terms of the agreement iran adds that's because other signatories including france germany and the u.k. haven't done enough to keep the deal alive our guesstimated has really been playing with fire. i really think that president. to look him in the mirror and see that he fails to see this let alone defiant that he himself has ignited with is irrational confrontation our policy toward iran mr thompson is wrong is that his hawkish advisors are wrong the u.s. says iran policy is we perform a vice president joe biden the self-inflicted disaster iran violated the c.p.o. way on many occasions and it was only a stopping point on their ultimate desire to to enrich uranium to. develop a nuclear missile program and they continue to do it right after before and right

well if human knowledge is going to perform in saudi arabia. imagine waking up from a 3 year comma and the 1st think. painting an m.t.v. musical festival in saudi arabia i don't think i woke up in some parallel universe . she's going to go and shake her and all her songs are decent about sex and shaking and then you tell me to where they are by our white house hypocrisy while thousands of saudi women can't even get out to get their basic needs thanks to the saudi government the saudi government is bringing him in ash to show the rest of the world hey we are an open minded country. was. the crown prince how much and still man
12:15 pm
has actually been trying to use kind of these stunts or these very superficial changes that are not organic to saudi arabian society at all or to what it means to be a woman in saudi arabia it is kind of a silly image to imagine that the women attending the human r. ce concert are actually fully failed and wearing full length ropes society doesn't really buy it they're not buying into this so-called attempt to modernize sort of society in this way i think that this basically in caps relates the problem with the rule of the crown prince of example a distant mission of hypotheses somebody who has made absolutely. no real changes during the entire time that he has been ruling as a factual or saudi arabia at the same time we all know about the scandal with last year the war in yemen oaklands of human rights abuses these are all continuing that it is attempting to do these very basic ridiculous gestures

12:18 pm
opposition labor party leader jeremy corbin to atrocities in the non-si concentration camp auschwitz parties playboy joins us from london line with more supply what did hunt actually say. well a petition calling on the foreign secretary to apologize to the leader of the opposition jeremy corbyn has amassed almost 16000 or over 16000 signatures in just a couple of days and a lot of people are expressing that anger and the shock at these comments that essentially boiled down to jeremy hunt comparing jeremy corbyn to hitler and suggesting that he's capable of the sorts of atrocities that the nazis perpetrated take a listen to precisely what jeremy hunt had to say about jeremy corbyn in the an interview with the jewish newspaper. rather complacently said to myself thank goodness we don't have to worry about that kind of thing happening in
12:19 pm
the u.k. and no if i myself with the leader of the labor party who has opened the door to anti semitism in a way that is truly frightening to me corbin has been a lifelong campaigner for the rights of palestinians but he's also been accused of failing to root out anti semitism from within the labor party but these comments by jeremy hunt has managed to offend even those people that are naturally all been supportive take a listen to just some of the reaction on twitter. that someone would visit auschwitz and use it as a means to attack the mainstream political party in the. german home 20 auschwitz when he came back he was so humbled by the experience he needed to use that does complaining material to insult his political opponents because that's the truth isn't it jeremy the whole cause then might win you
12:20 pm
a few votes using school cheap political points just to be one of the most despicable things i've ever seen even from a touring. jeremy haun is the 2nd favorite after boris johnson to be the next prime minister here there's a conservative leadership race on at the moment but some say that his desire to reference you know the problem of anti semitism in the labor party is a way of deflecting from the rao over alleged islam a phobia within jeremey hunt conservative party and also the chances of a general election here in the u.k. before the year is out is really creeping up boris johnson and jeremy hunt have been doing the campaign trails and variously trying to out brags that each other by pledging to both leave the e.u. by the end of that deadline even if there is no deal in place and that could lead to an election where gregg's it weary voters could look to labor as some sort of
12:21 pm
alternative to all of this and so there is a genuine fair right now i think in conservative circles of the prospect of a cool been government we've even seen stories leaks from the civil service which is supposed to be the power of of impartiality here in the u.k. suggesting that jeremy corbin isn't fit to be prime minister and so poor it is of labor jeremy corbyn they will see these latest comments by jeremy hunt as sort of just another installment of this plot to discredit the labor. party's thank you for bringing us that report. are all has broken out between china and the u.k. over the former british colony of hong kong territory has seen a large protest against resulting in a rest and injuries one in support for the demonstrators though has infuriated
12:22 pm
china. reports. the massive protests taking place in hong kong these past few weeks over in the upper post extradition bill how from now spilled into an international dispute the u.k. or the formal colonial power of hong kong has openly voice that support for the protesters we should have a sense of all about home comb and we should have a specific sense of our obligations to the individual citizens of hong kong and that means speaking up about what's been happening it's up to the people of hong kong to decide what they think should happen in terms of their own government hong kong is not part of the united kingdom but the u.k. signed an internationally binding legal agreement in 1904 that in shrines the one country 2 systems rule in trying to the basic freedoms of the people of hong kong and we stand foursquare behind that agreements foursquare behind the people of hong kong and there will be serious consequences if that internationally binding legal agreements were not to be on it the sense of obligation towards the team
12:23 pm
a credit 6 future of the hong kong people was openly and widely supported by the u.k. media as well london sense of how trying is an over its former colonial power was openly and supported and more encouraged when the hong kong colonial flake appeared in the legislative building emotional smash on monday some u.k. twitter users even went as far as calling for reagan if they cation or reclaim of their former british colony however though the chinese foreign minister is clearly not happy with the sudden increase of interest of london in hong kong they are accusing london of supporting the law breakers in the city. so i'm going to let the british won the freedom of hong kong residents is a shameless statement yet there's a whole i would like to ask mr hans what democracy hong kong had during british
12:24 pm
colonial you know or can come won't you the people of her. did not even have the right to march on the streets. that comments of course they not sit well with the u.k. government which went far as even to summon the chinese ambassador in response but whatever your view on the hong kong extradition bill is it's hard to take calls from british officials seriously just take for example the last the pointed governor of hong kong he was neither elected nor chinese and just to give you a better understanding on what i'm talking about here are the names of the 5 past governors of hong kong under u.k. rule did you notice the trend moreover up until mighty 97 which was the last year that hong kong was under a rule no one will held under universal suffrage today hong kong might indeed be fighting for its right spots it's not the former colonial power which should be
12:25 pm
weighing in on there's an element of wounded sovereignty with the british criticism but the chinese want to make it clear this is sovereign chinese territory is the normal want to go our not you still hold elections when they were in hong kong they're really not in your position to criticize i think that's strictly speaking to it from the chinese course it's hypocritical i'm sad to say that not only the british but the american and most other western governments you know hypocrisy should be part of their be official title of how they conduct their affairs how they deal with their human rights issues at home and then how they will use any pretext to support things like color revolutions this is perfectly fine from the point of view of this government i think of course there's a huge role on. this friday marks the 76th anniversary of the biggest tank battle in history at curse in southern russia a turning point of the 2nd world war r.t. spoke to the chair of the board of trustees of the national military historical

society sergei ivanov about why moscow had no choice but to enter poland in 1941 and russia's role in the war. i am sure that soviet union did most and bade most set of fisons to. their is fascism from the face of europe and you think poland could have held out long enough to wait to get help from france or from britain had the soviet troops not crossed its eastern border on september the 17th the soviet troops crossed the former. soviet polish border the polish government didn't exist the polish army didn't exist poland unfortunately was destroyed by and that's it germany in 2 weeks and our troops crossed the border to save russians belorussians jews and ukrainians living in the eastern part of germany if
12:27 pm

12:30 pm
it's not surprising that patriotism has become the word of the week but much like slapping old yaddo rims on a broken down 76 buick you can't just call yourself a patriot simply by wrapping yourself in the plague and calling yourself a patriot patriotism is earned not endowed bought or claimed and this week saw the funeral of a man who in every imaginable sets earned the right to be called a patriot i'm speaking of course about 911 1st responder louis alvarez who was laid to rest this week on wednesday june 3rd after a long and heroic battle against the cancer he acquired from spending day after day week after week helping rescue survivors at ground. 0 in new york city in the aftermath of 911 but it wasn't just his selfless work on ground 0 but it's also his tireless efforts to hold the u.s. government accountable to the 1st responders who are suffering and dying from $911.00 ground 0 related illnesses there is alvarez pleading with congress.
