3:01 pm
hello and welcome this is r.t. international broadcasting to you live from moscow and the care and. now europe and russia should return to a normal relationship without sanctions that's the joint message from the news conference of blind amir putin and just the picante talking about the harm to the economy by those restrictions that italy's premier even added an emotional touch. the time the sanctions could be lifted or extended always because so much could be achieved and the situation could be so much. for joining me live now is the labor trying to go from rome in the apprentice to console was very expressive about sanctions wasn't hey but will they stay or will they go.
3:02 pm
well it looks like they're going to stay for now anyway because the voice that's coming out of rome surely for now doesn't represent the entire spectrum of voices from brussels but it is no secret that the. the euro skeptic government that is now in charge here in the capital of italy is no big fan of the anti-abortion sanctions to say the least however house you've heard. from the prime minister. conte his message is becoming more loud and bore clear especially when he's standing shoulder to shoulder with the russian leader once again reminded about all the cash that both russia and europe could have received if it wasn't for the sanctions. we had to train to an overall $400.00. $50000000000.00 we had that before the sanctions now it's $200.00 now it's
3:03 pm
$270000000000.00 to try to do over with europe where all of those over $150000000000.00 of these are in the money and this is the income of the european countries could not receive because of the sanctions. several times during the press conference we heard the words such as i absolutely agree with my colleague which is definitely a rare thing when vladimir who meets western leaders however the putin is definitely an exception and this was also the case when the leaders were taking questions about such a troubling and important issue for italy as libya and vladimir putin began with pointing the finger at nato. it's also important to cool how it all started. do you remember. destroyed.
3:04 pm
libya as a state. is one of the few countries that assist and for the situation a military decision could not lead to libya's unification on the contrary today we're witnessing a dramatic situation where. the final question at this press conference was about the stalemate in venezuela the journalist wondered if the leaders discuss that and whether the situation has now taken a new twist given the fact that we're not getting many news from so we're not getting. much many updates from that south american country at this point. had a metaphorical way to express what he believes is important for them as well right
3:05 pm
now. so mr came to the streets looked into the sky and. now i am president he basically talks to god but we haven't received any response from god saying that he agrees with mr why does assessments of his presidency potential presidency so i think that we. are taken into the into account we need to. consider our. laws and procedures and use elections to decide who's going to become president and the same goes of course for. the russian president earlier he had quite an eventful day a very full day didn't he also meeting with the italian president and then even the pope earlier today how did that. where you have a lot of i heard and also paid
3:06 pm
a visit to the vatican and where he spent a couple of hours this wasn't the 1st. meeting with the head of the roman catholic church for the russian meter however as usual it was a real display of warmth respects and politeness one of the highlights was the moment when mr putin and francis were has to pass through a doorway they just were really standing out there and telling each other to go through 1st so that was a moment for journalists to watch out for and definitely we took that plus there were gifts as usual mr putin gave the pope a an old orthodox and also a cd with a russian movie and return for that he got a drawing from the 18th century and also
3:07 pm
a special message for the young people in russia so. a busy day. here in rome and the vatican technically that was to state visits at the same time within the timeframe of just a few hours. and david thanks for keeping across the events in rome for us. a mass public backlash of spawn's against one of the people in line to become britain's prime minister current foreign secretary jeremy hunt after he tied opposition labor party to jeremy corbyn to atrocities in nazi concentration camp auschwitz thousands have already signed a petition demanding that hung apologize. explains the. petition calling on the foreign secretary to apologize to the leader of the opposition jeremy colvin has amassed a the 16000 signatures is because a lot of people are angry over these comments that really boil down to jeremy hunt
3:08 pm
making a link between the leader of the labor policy and the. the atrocities perpetrated by hitler and the nazis take a listen to what the foreign secretary had to say about the leader of the opposition jeremy corbyn in an interview with the jewish newspaper a little bit earlier on this week you know it's rather complacently said to myself thank goodness we don't have to worry about that kind of thing happening in 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 have managed to offend even those people that all natural corbin supporters take
3:09 pm
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 used it as complaining material to insult his political opponents because that's the truth isn't it jeremy the whole cause then might win here a few votes using school cheap political points just to be one of the most despicable things i've ever seen even from a turi 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 as a way of deflecting from the roué over alleged islam a phobia within jeremy hunt own conservative party and also the chances of
3:10 pm
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 apparently trying to out brags that each other by pledging to both leave. 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 we vote is we look to labor as some sort of alternative to all of this and so there is a genuine fear right now i think in conservative circles of the prospect of all been government and we've even seen stories leaks from the civil service which is supposed to be the power again of impartiality here in the u.k. suggesting that jeremy corbyn isn't fit to be prime minister and so. jeremy corbyn they will see these latest comments by jeremy hunt as sort of just
3:11 pm
another installment of this plot to discredit the labor leader. kadar senior research associate a think tank the big inside out center for strategic studies warns nothing is more dangerous than minimizing the holocaust for political point scoring. believed that this competition. might be in such a high level that whatever it is against corbin who might be the next prime minister would use any any means in order to gain some more votes this is very dangerous because when you try to minimize the magnitude of the holocaust to something which can be used. for political issues it is something which makes the holocaust happen again because if it was not such a big think that we can use it into the glue that we can use it here and there will
3:12 pm
be like. that again. germany is in the grip of a heat wave at the moment and it seems to be driving people a bit crazy leading to everything from public nudity to mass violence this would mean poles hate all of our ports the heat wave that's been roasting parts of europe or seen some here in germany fall foul of the law take a small paid rider brandenburg for example he received a caution from the police after his attempts to feel the breeze saw him decide to write his scooter with no clothes on but the behavior of some in germany's public swimming pools has been far more concerning at outdoor pool and sold off so hundreds involved in a must brawl last weekend it started when a group of young men became embroiled in an argument with a family police to be called deployed pepper spray a witness described the scene there was a huge crowd of teenagers who were causing trouble around here they made those men
3:13 pm
with children cry police to escort the family away from the scene and authorities ordered that the pool be closed and said they didn't know too much about the identities of those behind the violence their colleagues described the group as north african looking for the. didn't and dissolute office fall from the only one to have taken place in germany in the last month here in lynn franco broke out at the entry to a public swimming pool the place to be called there over in munich 150 teenagers rioted in the bavarian capital in western germany from a french fry stand saw a row 20 people involved in a brawl in which chairs and trust cans were used as weapons whilst against a 23 year old man he required emergency surgery after being stopped following a dispute that began in
3:14 pm
a swimming pool in stuttgart pepper spray was again deployed after another bus brawl in many of the incidents police and witnesses reported that those involved were from a migrant background leading to questions about integration that's nothing to do with us says the federal office for migration and refugees we have the wrong contact in relation to the facts below it is not the task of the federal office to comment on the situation in german outdoor swimming pools with the warm weather set to continue for a little while yet police on pool security will be hoping that while the mercury rises tempus stay cool peter all of. the head of the u.s. air force has assured americans that the country's ready for nuclear war were failing to 3 light that would flash on his red office phone and the country he chose for his armageddon scenario was russia. should war with
3:15 pm
a nuclear power happen and i'm going to primarily used russia as my example today as the most dangerous nuclear threat we face i fully expect 3 lights to lights up on my read switch phone in the office the 1st step in the nightmare scheme would be to team up with nate. which he called 1st and foremost a nuclear alliance to send bombers next would be to order the north american aerospace defense command to intercept incoming missiles and finally deployed nuclear submarines for a massive 2nd strike journalist martin somers says it's all just sales pitch for more pentagon money you've got to remember the military industrial complex in the west is is a money making machine primarily. as they know that russia has upgraded its nuclear arsenal because it had to really because of basically the. no short range nuclear weapon straight in their face if you imagine if the russians were caught supports a similar weapons into cuba we know what happened in london 6263 when that happened
3:16 pm
. so that they are basically wanting to spend more money on more nuclear weapons so they're basically this is a basically a sales pitch the real threat of nuclear war is definitely there but talking about it like this is more for public consumption than anything else it's supposed to reassure people but if you read between the lines it's not very reassuring it's all it's going to suggesting that it's come before these wars can be fought and won a lot would realize years ago that's that's impossible. it's been 4 years now since saudi arabia started a war on yemeni hoofy rebels who react claims on tuesday launched a drone attack on a saudi airport injuring 9 the alleged cross border strike comes amid a was an inhuman a tarion crisis in yemen with starvation becoming ever more widespread in the region to warn you there are some disturbing images and according to the u.n.
3:17 pm
sponsored world food program 20000000 yemenis are food insecure or and half of them are on the brink of famine but despite the appalling situation last month it partially suspended sending food to areas controlled by the who these. the decision was taken as a last resort after a lengthy negotiation stalled on an agreement to introduce controls to prevent the diversion of food away from some of the most vulnerable people in yemen the un's decision sparks outrage in yemen and accusations of corruption but he thinks allege the food program is being used to achieve political aims the world food program is no longer carrying out a humanitarian operation in yemen but it's sixty's have rather become purely political it is advanced in the genders of the u.s. saudi arabia and the u.s. a key who the concern is that main donors to the food program are states fighting them or supplying the antihero the coalition with weapons they also worry about the
3:18 pm
collection of biometric data on yemeni citizens which is a condition of the aid supposedly to prevent theft but who are these one this information can be exploited by the saudi led coalition when we spoke to antiwar campaigner jonathan shafi about the allegations. there's a great problem here which is that the war in yemen just like war through history is making money for a small number of people those who run the arms companies and so on when it comes to the question of yemen when it comes the question of how we bring a bit peace the 1st thing that we have to do is to stop the sale of weapons is to open up the channels to deliver food and other aid to the starved people of davis stated yemen and to bring about a peaceful solution and so of course there is a need a dire need for food aid to get through and it seems to me that what's happening is that the request for by magick and from ation on 13000000 individuals yemenis
3:19 pm
including military officers soldiers and so on that the fear is that handing that information over to the world food program let me end up in the hands of the so ticklish and the funding that goes to the world food program because of it coming from 7 of the sody coalition and because of the deeply complex picture that that they in pain about with such passion all information may end up and about how that information may be used in a military fashion. around has broken out between china and the u.k. over the former british colony of hong kong the territory has seen large protests against beijing resulting in a rests and injuries london support for the demonstrations there has infuriated china artie's evangelise at last report. the massive protests taking place in hong kong these past few weeks over in the upper post extradition bill house now spilled
3:20 pm
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 agreements 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 a credit future of the hong kong people was openly and widely supported by the u.k.
3:21 pm
media as well london sense of how much an ism over its former colonial power was openly and supported and more encouraged when the hong kong colonial flake appeared in the legislative building which was smashed 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 off they are accusing london of supporting the lawbreakers in the city. showing them that you know the british won the freedom of hong kong residents is a shameless statement and there's a whole i would like to ask mr hans what democracy hong kong had during british colonial you're going to come won't you the people of her. did not even have the right to march on the streets. that comments of course that not sit well with the
3:22 pm
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 point of 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 called might indeed be fighting for its right spots it's not the former colonial power which should be 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
3:23 pm
normal want to will power did not it still hold elections when they were in hong kong they're really not in your position criticized i think that's strictly speaking true 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. saudi arabia's latest efforts and more liberal at pace to have backfired at a top us hip hop star line for her provoke us if style will be the key acts in a major concert in the kingdom but that so many.
3:24 pm
oh well if human knowledge is going to perform in saudi arabia. imagine waking up from a 3 year comma and the 1st thing you hate sneaking menasha opening an empty musical festival in saudi arabia i don't think i woke up in some parallel universe. she's going to go and shake her all her songs are indecent about sex and shaking and then you tell me to where they are by and why the hell 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 restroom
3:25 pm
world hey we are an open minded country. was. the crown prince how much insulin man has actually been trying to use kind of these stunts or these very superficial changes that are not organic to saudi arabia 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 includes relates the problem with the rule of the crown prince of example a decision mission of hypotheses somebody who has made absolutely. no real changes during the entire time that he has been really cool or saudi arabia at the same

magic mushrooms news down to contacts used in the wrong way kerry carried potential arms like any any psychoactive substances. but used in the right way they seem to have quite a. profound therapy to potential and quite a good safety life all this while. because or this is the guys report we are going to maintain their san francisco great event put on by a big client magazine a lot of great speakers lot of great talk about going to fully embracing a new leg of its bull market very exciting election season yes well you know we're in our whole summer solutions' beginning of that happening we're in summer we're
3:28 pm
into la it's all like happening and we have this remarkable tweet here and it's from another big player because you know this big move that we've seen a big client and it's still very volatile and you know you do your own research of course when whenever buying restacking sat's as they call it and never invest more than you can afford to lose but here is the latest movement in decline which is quite apparent and has been discussed at this point conference is that it's mostly institutional money this time around and 2017 it was all retail money it was the ordinary person out there like with a $100.00 or a $1000.00 to their name this is like the big institutions coming in and you can see that through the google trends you can see that there's very very few searches happening on how to buy that point nor anything to do with big plan so it's really an institutional money and here we have a tweet from d.c. which provides a little link to a segment with invesco chief global market strategist christina hooper is the

ultimate safe haven trade she says that might not be too far fetched well certainly there are a lot of safe haven trades and i've heard some strategists argue in fact that bitcoin is a safe haven trade or perhaps an indicator that we're very close. i think that coin might be a sign of fears about recession but certainly it makes sense in this environment that we see investors looking for safe havens but i do think it's a mistake. with the fed signaling its willingness to be a lot more dovish right well the main idea of becoming a safe haven 1st talked about on this show a few years ago as being the ultimate safe haven better than gold to be a safe haven and that a lot of money moving into because it was the result of safe haven funds risk off money when the risk in stocks and bonds gets too high there's a risk off feeling in the markets and institutional money starts looking for
3:30 pm
a safe havens becomes a safe haven this this idea makes gold bugs puke they can't believe it they're disgusted that they never saw this coming every single gold bug if they followed cars reported closely they would all be retired by now on their $1000000000.00 private islands and wouldn't hear from them at all but they were failed to take the intellectual leap into understanding what's going on here it's open source money big coin is just what linux was to unix ok that's all you need so now if you don't understand i just said then get out of money business stop managing money stop talking about money because you don't know what you talking about and the fact is it is a safe haven play and as $100.00 trillion dollars worth i don't cash sitting in family office accounts corporate accounts various manage money accounts is over 100 trillion just sitting there looking for.
