in all middle of the room. united states could potentially be smuggling tons of weapons and ammunition to militants in syria according to documents obtained by a bug area journalist. the hosts key leaders from asia on the 2nd day of the eastern economic forum in. the iran nuclear deal and arms race high on the agenda. the un report highlights the role of the united states britain and france in alleged human rights violations committed. there are certain states who are. to be supplying weapons that includes united states. kingdom. france to name but 3.

welcomes from your headline news this hour with a. first for you a trove of leaks documents have seemingly expose the united states as a major supplier of illegal weapons about gary and journalist claims america has been buying millions of serbian munitions which have ended up in terrorist hands across the middle east washington allegedly purchased weapons from 2 serbian state owned companies apparently for the police in afghanistan but those arms would then seen an islamic state propaganda video showing militants in yemen you can watch all report on that in full on you tube channel. and these photos shows some of the serbia made weapons and ammunition produced by the same companies that we mentioned this time though in syria and the 2nd part of the report claims that the weapons procured by washington have also been ending up in the hands of rebels and terrorists there too as the accusations. of takes

a closer look at the evidence. from the start of the war in syria anti-government factions have been enjoying well a gun before all inclusive some pieces fell into their hands as spoils of war where the others came from nobody knew it seemed until now because apart from me de blowing hatred towards assad all these rebels i saw and self-governing jihadists they could have another thing in common a big wealthy arms dealer lurking in the shadows. able gary an investigative journalist has claimed to have exposed an elaborate network of private american companies which have been buying weapons from serbian manufacturers and shipping them to the middle east the journalist managed to get through a labyrinth full of fake trails and dead ends designed specifically to cover the

tracks to the network's command center the pentagon. in one instance an american company 04 industries used a british broker as its middleman to buy mortar shells from serbian manufacture acoustic and this e-mail says a learner is a direct proof of that and it was business as usual up until the moment one crew sic was about to get paid because none of the companies that dealt with wanted to wire the money instead they wanted to finish the transaction and through a nother 3rd party british company and this raised all sorts of red flags. bearing in mind that the payment will be affected by the company that is not the buyer according to our law and foreign exchange operations we will need the consent of the serbian government i.e. the ministry of finance in order to be able to apply at the ministry of finance we

necessarily need a tripartite agreement verified and signed by the buyer sierra 4 industries the seller holding corp crew sick and the legal entity that will affect the payment charles kendall and partners limited. it was so suspicious the serbs even questioned if the final destination for the armaments would indeed be the pre-agreed location which was no not the middle east but harmless innocent romania. the draft in jesus is to pick it states the following place of delivery. to china and a base rumania according to the above it should be clearly mentioned that the goods will be used in romania including the purpose of use and the goods will be shipped to romania they weren't used in romania it seems once the money was finally wired of washington's memory was clean instead the ammunition was flown to qatar

and ended up in syria according to the journalist that they have gone so far there are private american companies or your company is the military or to you from bikini if they use you know are they still think. these are military like you like. using different places after the website it's like this that people are like you problem finding information because they are all using the things like numbers anyway this game is using different routes and you might like their berthing their weapons buy up their proud. nation with syria or react to americans these 2 they even visited

crusade to troubleshoot any potential insurgence on behalf of the seller i also can't buy for that you are and that her mother was some of the united states the european that are in what they got on the shelf and are proud that their this is the serbia back in the or the letter box and. and laying around. organizing their ship much less than a year on the same 2 men were awarded for. arming rebels in syria. the little affair with the serbs was far from a one night stand type of deal for the u.s. they shipped tens of thousands of munitions into syria drowning the country in arms for years we've worked to stop the civil war in syria and all the leave for human suffering we wanted to reach out to syria for industries remember the american

company that initiated the deal with the serbs and imagine our surprise when we found out that the company barely even exists it has no listed phone number no email and just 5 yes 12345 employees not exactly a shock. apart from the company the eagle just mentioned we contacted the pentagon and the crew said company for comment we'll bring you those when they come in meantime former british army officer charles shubert says there's no reason to doubt the authenticity of those leaked documents. it's an impressive piece of journalism by any standards i think to produce what share the traveler she's produced and apparently convincing evidence if these documents are genuine and so far at least there's been no indication whatsoever despite the opportunity to given to people so far to show them as not genuine if the chair near in these documents are indeed as dion herself suggests they are indeed explosive in their revelations

really what it shows is that long after we all know of course or many of us know about this operation timber sycamore busy that was launched by the us was run by many years by them a covert arming and training project for syria's rebels supposedly moderate rebels . but of course invariably many of these weapons ended up in the hands of what even the us deems terrorists in syria that was all supposedly ended in 2017 when it was finally disclosed that it's actually publicly acknowledged that it existed and so now we've got evidence quite clear evidence if the documentation is true and again there's nothing to indicate that it's not that actually this program in another form has continued. russia's far east next there where 5 key leaders took to the stage earlier in blood of all stock on day 2 of the eastern economic forum but he made putin would join for discussions by the indian japanese malaysian and

mongolian leaders on how to move forward on trade technology the environment and avoiding global military escalations correspondent in a culture of i went through the line up in key moments with me a little earlier. well some of the biggest players from asia are present at the forum now i'm talking about the had japan which is actually a long known ally of the u.s. then fast developing and malaysia now they've taking on some of the world's most pressing sticking points and especially the possibility of another arms race now that has become rather sounds as if after the u.s. quite abruptly withdrew from the i.m.f. treaty now the russian president said that after his recent talks with donald trump the u.s. has so far shown no interest and solving this matter if you're watching in the. serious challenges facing humanity imagine if the someone maybe a nuclear bomb. over our heads i'm but this could drastically change the security

situation across the globe are all american partners keep silent when we suggest continuing to negotiate disarmament there's nothing new in that. well the u.s. continues to justify its military build up with the fact that russia has modern weaponry and here the russian president during his talks with his counterparts suggested a solution. but i still don't know do you want us to sell you those weapons they are saying they will soon produce the room that might be so but then why would they spend the money if we have already spent it wouldn't breach of security but would help to create balance. also our discussion was the fate of iran's nuclear deal now japanese prime minister shinzo abbé said that he actually feels sorie that the situation remains and dad logon actually quite recently it has

asked now he spoke of his recent visit to iran and called to normalize the situation but he sees it only via negotiations so what. we have long told the us we have our concern in iran and the nuclear deal i wish it would be resolved through negotiations i talked to the supreme leader and he said that iran isn't going to produce or use nuclear weapons he said it very clearly now on a lie they know what the mood at the forum was rather pleasant the indian prime minister narendra modi referenced a well known russian author left all story now he said that both gandhi untold story left quite a heritage so he is now hopeful that both countries will leave even a better impact on the future of japanese prime minister actions are being followed the example set by indian counterpart he quoted famous russian point and later he also took a page out of russian literature using

a proverb to describe his relationship with the russian president. the audience might not know that the summit meeting we've just had was our 27th meeting ladies and. it's important for you to know that president putin and i have had so many meals together time and time again that one might say we even keel lives of soul together so from the outside it's been quite a fruitful 4 ohm for the leaders as they look to tackle global stand ups and really bring relationships closer together. on the sidelines of that economic forum in blood of all stock the malaysian prime minister's again criticized the ongoing investigation into the downing of flight m.h. 70 saying the probe will remain biased unless more countries are involved all 298 people on board died when their plane crashed in eastern ukraine in 2014 it was bound for malaysia from the netherlands when it was shot down. the 1st free. internet to lead the nation of. a.d.'s heavily we did on

the side of the people who. who. we cause of this. so their views may not be. fair and neutral we need to have a neutral to the investigate we shouldn't get experts from many countries who him. for them to decide. what really happened but when you have the countries that suffered because of the. bound to be a little beat bias the dark side joint investigation team blamed russian backed rebels in eastern ukraine a preliminary report claims the rebels used the russian made book missile system moscow those repeatedly said that the particular system in question was left in

ukraine after the breakup of the soviet union and a separate experiment looking at how the plane was shot down russian and defense company concluded that the missile could not have been fired from the region alleged in the report those results were ignored by the joint investigation to. the malaysian p.m.'s expressed his anger before over his country not being fully included in the investigation he now says he cannot accept the claims the brush fire the missile because the evidence is simply not right. i'm not. truthfulness but. this set than things that they're da claim is difficult for us to accept but the lead i didn't think kitchen other people who actually. and. monday. finding it's me did not sound to me and many people as being

quite right. i had ot see us democratic presidential hopefuls look fit on the ground in the 3rd round of debates with antiwar candidates who criticized military spending dropped among all stories when we come back. to. put themselves on the line big get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and. want to it's. actually going to be close this is what it looks like 3 of them all can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of how. things should. seem wrong. but i. just don't hold. me. to shape

out to stay active. engagement equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. hello again more of our headline news now in the united nations has once again raised concerns over the humanitarian crisis in yemen where the conflicts been raging for 5 years the organization called out the international community for its inaction branding the situation in yemen a collective failure please be one of the video we're about to show you does contain distressing scenes the u.n.

says that the civil war has left tens of thousands of people dead and many more injured over 700 children have died from landmines alone since 201324 1000000 yemenis are in urgent need of assistance to survive as the country struggles with famine and numerous outbreaks of cholera a crew from our sister channel r.t. arabic visited an orphanage in the capital sanaa. how the legacy i was playing while our she work raising i heard of mom exponents or shrapnel flying in all directions some towards me and then stumbling i ran for home only to find out that my family had been killed my mother and father my brothers and sisters they were all.

with us now because of the war the number of all friends has risen so much that the orphanages can't house them it's bleak for this children many of whom have to live rough from the streets. but there are countries which the u.n. sees as specifically responsible for the crisis in yemen in a new report it pointedly mentions the united states britain and france for supplying arms to parties involved in the conflict and it is them to stop the sales . there are certain states who are well known to be supplying weapons that includes the united states it includes united kingdom it includes france to name but 3 the group of experts has recommended that 3rd states prohibit the authorization about arms transfers and refrain from providing arms to parties to the conflict this is because of the prevailing risk that such arms will be used by parties to commit or facilitate serious violations of international humanitarian and human rights law the united states is by far the main arms supplier to saudi

arabia followed by britain and france between 20152018 washington sold weapons worth around $10000000000.00 to the saudis the u.k. and france trailed far behind with $2100000000.00 and $500000000.00 respectively one of the authors of the latest u.n. report or you saw their child's garraway told me the continuing flow of arms into gehman is perpetuating the war. this is a collective failure of the international community as a whole and it is the responsibility of the international community as a whole and inevitably those people who supply arms have a greater influence on the parties and therefore have a perhaps a greater responsibility to take action to try to prevent violations there is no doubt that it is the continuation of the supply of alms to yemen that is prolonging the conflict. of the un report also calls into question the findings of saudi arabia's joint incidents assessment team the body claims to investigate violations

by the coalition in yemen with transparency and impartiality but charles garroway told me that the group's analysis is superficial. the trouble is the coalition has not been cooperating with us and therefore we have very little information apart from what is in the public to many of the press releases of the joint incident an assessment team could use comparatively bland and so far as we can see they do sufficient legal analysis what is needed is an independent and impartial system so that's what we have tried to do but the difficulty with examining conduct the 1st instance is it's easy to look upwards from the result but the result will tell you very little would even tell you what the intended target was and what we need. is access to the targeting persons so that we can find out what is good because something clearly is. democratic candidates adjusting for nomination ahead of the

u.s. presidential election next year but it seems of the party is thin on the ground ahead of a 3rd round debate with only 3 hopefuls set to take the stage of the some speculation over the lack of numbers with 2 antiwar candidates marianne williamson until she got removed from the debate light up after they criticized the pentagon's budget is kind of open. among the 2020 candidates vying for the democratic nomination is self-help guru marianne williamson she's one of the most googled candidates and known for her oddly spiritual approach i'm going to harness a false god this dark psychic force she's certainly trying to grab the attention of certain voters but it may surprise you that she actually has a strong appeal among a broad selection of rank and file liberals we don't have a health care system in the united we have a sickness care system in the united states this is part of the dark underbelly.

now she has criticized us foreign policy and particularly the pentagon with nearly $740000000000.00 military budget but only for. a $1000000000.00 proposed for the state department budget our outsize commitment to brute force and never would have been commitment to so forces of this well no limelight for her she has been pushed off the stage of the upcoming debates along with antiwar candidate tulsa gabbert all thanks to the new rules of the d.n.c. there is a well strategized effort to smear me there is no doubt about that there are some very powerful forces that want to make sure i'm not in the 3rd debate so i must be doing something right if they work so hard to create that in this crowded campaign the antiwar democratic candidates seem to stand out however it's those centrist pro-war hawkish democrats that get all the spotlight take a recent poll from amman and a plus pollster in the united states now the results from this polling agency actually showed bernie sanders in the leaves ahead of joe biden but inconvenient

poll results like that just end up getting shunned he's clear that the moment university poll published on mondays and i understood when we released top poll the picture it paints a diversion from us and the media has a role in helping the d.n.c. to they target those who don't fit in with the establishment narrative they pull out the label god marianne williamson well she's a faith healer who doesn't believe in vaccines tells you gabbert she's a pal of bashar al assad bernie sanders well he's just a silly old man who can't really be taken seriously he took on the bag but the bag clobbered him isn't that not a good message i think that would be a not a good method to and i've never given that method when you see false pretenses though u.s. officials determined that assad didn't use these chemical weapons against his own people used to inform me here that about iraq unwritten rules are becoming ever more clear for the democrats step outside of that pro-war box and you're labeled

a crank no matter how much the public likes you. are seeing new york. news for now much and stays here in paris next with your latest kaiser report. sessions tries to make sure that the british and the bill of voted out that it will . stop pressure was to your street dentist that these traditions have destroyed bush costello. which we don't have time and i know what you mean in response to trickle in there for sure and. want to talk to you sort of your my it's your bonus for to be. there

mr ellsworth supporters are still with them for the spirit of this interview for you both these to teach history to actually the 1st person to be vocal or should step up and speak. expressed sure. there's things. we do here to. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guests of

the world of politics sport this list i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. pain years in the process started 10 years and i think it's time to shake things up maybe change the branding maybe the format here is what i've been thinking about next season related episodes filmed on an island 10 experts fight it out for a trophy what do you think ok a more affordable option $25.00 text birds. and one red rose another suggestion. jeopardy parody no political cookout where we will literally wrote the elites. late night show it's a rare form of these days and it's cheap all you need is an old microphone in a printed banner. to leave me with one of my goals i can do this campbell after politics gone wild like music. ok crosstalk is not about hype

it's about meaning 10 years of talk and still going strong. peter if you want to change something why don't we get rid of the gotye no that is too much. i am asked as are this is the kaiser report where interest you know so many people referenced the marie antoinette quote let them eat cake and then you know historians have gone back and they said you know it's actually not cake it's brioche brioche you know that so i brought in actual oh my god what a mess we brought in actual brioche this is a brioche as for the sliced there at the patisserie and so this is what she

suggested that the peasants the should be eating because they had run out of pan you say this is a brioche is a slice of the nicer version of pan there's a few in a cupboard let's throw that to the peasants and maybe that'll shut them up but. i believe there had been a wheat disaster because of the. volcano in in iceland had blown and caused bad weather yeah that we learned about that in iceland and that's what they claim they like to claim responsibility for the way we are the 29th same in this year lazio is barricading at the gates once again and folks are rising up for good reason what have you got in your little notes there because we haven't actually evolved since then because remember during the french revolution you made a film about this with gold money dot com and about john law and acid not because acid not was a basic opportunity that they had seized from the catholic church is

a derivative it was a derivative and nowadays i realized it dawned on me with all these negative interest rates all of these crazy economic policies emanating from our governments but at particular from the central banks is because we actually do have globally and ask not because most people think that banks lend to businesses and that's what they're doing and everybody. looking at the e.c.b. to cut rates that they can lend to businesses and grow the economy but actually over 85 percent of all bank lending is for properties and property bubbles so we're stuck with that right i mean that's a transfer payment and they use derivatives these modern channels of banking and conduits to collateralize the property in the modern cars the french government the time simply seized it via the catholic church their property securitized it and sold their currency back as such but here in the 21000 era they did they do it

using reverse collateralized mortgage obligations and fancy wall street products but as you point out so so well there this is a replay of all the elements that led to the french revolution using financial engineering and securitization and derivatives to debase the currency and the currency is being debased well you reach an end point of how much the value of the property can go up and with the asset not the french people demanded they print more of these awesome knots so that the property prices can continue to rise because they didn't want them to go down so we have that global situation right now it did it was able and possible because we went off the gold standard in $9071.00 at the same time it wouldn't have worked.
