the headlines this hour the u.s. president fires one of the most hawkish members of his white house team john bolton he becomes the 3rd national security adviser to be booted out by donald trump. pulp fiction branded a c.n.n. report that claims the u.s. secret service is extracted to high level spy for more in 2017 and he seeks to israeli voters by promising to annex large parts of the west bank sparking outrage in the arab world i'm warning from the u.s. .

good morning just here in moscow you're watching international now the u.s. president as. national security adviser citing multiple disagreements john bolton himself says he had offered his resignation 1st but it's not just donald trump who has had issues with the notorious hawk in the white house. i know everyone's talked about this for an awfully long time there were definite places at best and i told them i had different views about how we should proceed like sydney and maybe something down the line is it me and powerful or if you're. going forward with the rand paul who comes out of the same group of advisors that led us into war in iraq and here have caused america to put our troops in harm's way for far too often too little bit of that while john bolton is known for his aggressive approach

to foreign policy in support of the us intervention in syria and the against these in pressure on north korea he also adopted a tough stance to the one iran and bank scrapping the nuclear deal that hawkins takes a closer look at his record scandals resignations and dismissals are part and parcel of trump's presidency a few policy disagreements a swift tweet from the presidents and another administration official bites the dust it was clear from the outset that trump on his national security advisor would have disagreements i'm the one that tempers him but that's ok i have different sides i mean i have john bolton and i have other people that are a little more dovish than him and ultimately i make that decision we can speculate on which exact squabble led to bolton's exit the failed talks on afghanistan the question of russia's role perhaps iran but it seems the animosity lasted until his final day in office i offered to resign last night and president trump said let's

talk about it tomorrow i informed john bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the white house i disagreed strongly with many of his suggestions as did others in the administration and therefore i asked john for his resignation which was given to me this morning i think john very much for his service i will be naming a new national security advisor next week to try. views himself as a skilled dealmaker who talks tough when needed for bolton but wasn't enough he needed to walk the walk and actively consistently show strength on all fronts the middle east russia north korea latin america you name it he held out on compromising stance on sanctions military action and regime change. bolton was one of the key advocates of toppling the moderate government using any means necessary all options on the table ready to go this troika of tyranny this

triangle of chairs stretching from havana to caracas to managua is the cause of immense human suffering this is a time for action and we need men as well ruled by the people of venezuela and not by external forces. trump showed he was willing to meet to negotiate with even the greatest perceived u.s. adverse stories even if it meant just symbolic photo op the right intentions seems to be there bet it will make it clear that they won't go like sanctions because in his country i think they want to make peace i think it's time for bolton though this was unacceptable so it could be a long and unproductive meeting or it could be a short and unproductive meeting we have very much in mind the libyan model from 20032004 while bolton boiled that north korea had violated u.n. sanctions off the missile test and may trump downplayed the incident saying he wasn't spooked north korea fired off some small weapons which disturbed some of my

people and others but not me. taking on iran was perhaps bolton's priority number one within a month of his appointment in april 28th teen the u.s. had pulled out of the iran nuclear deal and advocate of preemptive strikes he pushed for military action against iran after a u.s. drone was brought down as ever his thinly veiled threats. centered around regime change we hope that these new measures directed at the iranian dictatorship will compel the government to re-evaluate its pursuit of terror at the expense of its people well i think he is on the verge of making a mistake i think his advisors are pushing him in the wrong direction ironically just as bolton prepared to depart speculations been rife on possible talks between trump and the rain in president through army it would have thought that possible after so much hostile rhetoric perhaps the final straw was trumps planned to wind

down the longest war in u.s. history including hosting talks with taliban leaders at camp david it speculated that bolton this was in comprehensible so what's next for u.s. foreign policy will troops words often have little correlation with his actions and the u.s. secretary of state reassures us not too much will change. leave to the present to talk about the reasons he made the decision but i would say this the president's intitled to the staff that he wants it at any moment as a staff person who works directly for the president states and he should have people he trusted values and whose efforts and judgments benefit him and delivering american foreign policy seems that with or without bolton's presence u.s. foreign policy may have more surprises in store during trump's 1st. hawkins' there when we discuss bolton's dismiss the with the former u.s. naval intelligence officer stephen roach is nor so the former u.s. congressman ron paul. john bolton was rather more hawkish than any national

security advisor that i've seen least my wife time he was opposed to the president taking steps to sit with foreign leaders across the table look when president trump suggested that lattimer putin be invited to the g. 7 summit was opposed to that the president recently want the taliban to come to camp david and talk and so it seemed to be a situation where the national security adviser john bolton was not respecting the wishes of the present united states the president is the duly elected representative of this country and mr bolton had an obligation to support the president's policies. also i had a lot of disagreement with secretary of state might pompei oh and as a result we now see what this culminated in today every time i think it is making progress bold you know but in any room is

a so i think the timing is just too late i mean not to late bed later than it should be a long time ago. a lot of people here didn't even want his appointment because he's the only was able to take a position that didn't require senate approval so he had this position which is very very important but he's been a monkey wrench in donald trump's policies of trying to back away from some of these conflicts around the world and it's led to a lot of frustration. now the russian government has described to c.n.n. reports as pope fiction after the news channel and claims about the cia had been trolling a high level spy. sizing anonymous sources c.n.n. reported that quote a source inside the russian government will successfully extract it in 27 say no evidence about the way don't move from pond build classified intelligence by the white heist in the cia say the story is incorrect. it's been delving deep.

secret missions exfiltration of spies top level intelligence it sounds like the makings of a thriller and in a way it is because this is an elaborate tale recently had by c.n.n. multiple trump administration officials tell me that these are officials with direct knowledge that in a previously undisclosed to secret mission in 2017 the u.s. successfully extracted from russia one of its highest level sources covert sources inside the russian government the c.n.n. report claims a man at the highest level of the kremlin was secretly feeding theeye information for a decade that he was so ensconced within the kremlin wall so friendly with and trusted by president putin's inner circle but he even managed to photograph documents on the russian leaders desk u.s. intelligence officials had already expressed concerns about the safety of this by

other russian assets given the length of their cooperation with the u.s. this according to a former senior intelligence official the report is peppered with vague mentions of secret sources mysterious interviews and skips a bit on the facts facts make a thriller indeed the c.n.n. report doesn't even given in playing of the identity of the informant but the russian media was willing to give it a chance and landed on one smiling cough it's been reported that he previously worked at the russian embassy in washington before becoming up to stay counselor at the presidential administration not really the pinnacle of influence which is true that smiling cough worked in the president's administration but several years ago he was fired his position wasn't that of a top official all the discussion in the u.s. media about someone urgently extracting someone and saving someone it cetera it is part of as you know a sort of pope fiction genre but c.n.n.

probably felt it had a bombshell report on its hands it found yet another. unverified crump's just it was the russians not the american public who elected trump and then showing that washington had fix us fully outwitted moscow by sneaking a legit spy out but what could make this revelation more delicious how about trump also being shown to be an unreliable slip president now that would be called a person directly involved in these discussions said that the removal of the russian was driven in part by concerns that president trump in his administration repeatedly mishandled classified intelligence and that that could contribute to exposing the covert source as aspiring so just to clarify the cia gave up its most important source on the off chance that trump might spill the beans a source that's been cultivated for over 10 years in the country is readily says it's almost impossible to infiltrate i could even buy into that if the cia gave me

something to what quits i mean they aren't exactly trump's cheerleaders their response that must have come as a bitter blow at c.n.n. h.q. misguided speculation that the president's handling of our nation's most sensitive intelligence which he has access to each and every day driven alleged exfiltration operation is inaccurate i love a good story but anonymous sources classified information which is impossible to verify trampas incapable of dealing with the discreet demands of office and washington being a step ahead of everyone well it just fits all too neatly. in other news this morning the u.n. has issued a stark warning to benjamin netanyahu over his newly announced plans for the west bank the israeli prime minister is up for reelection next week and he's promised an explicit parts of it if he wins. i'm a super. we are on the eve of elections president trump said that after the

elections he would present his deal of the century for a permanent agreement for israel's and the palestinians this offers us a great challenge and a great historic once in a lifetime opportunity to apply israel sovereignty over our settlements in judea and samaria and also other areas of significance for our security our heritage and our future any. israeli decision to impose its laws jurisdiction administration in the occupied west bank is without any international legal effect i think such a such a prospect would be devastating to the potential of reviving negotiations regional peace and the very essence of a 2 state solution well the area is home to some 3000000 palestinians with major international organizations labeling it as occupied territory increasing numbers of israelis have settled there i've recently a's and this concern to you than

a 1000000 by israel to seize the part known as the jordan valley will mark an end to a 2 state solution in the historic conflict is ready prime minister's promised us come just a few days before israel snap election that was treated after he failed to form a governing coalition early this year we spoke to a political analyst see things netanyahu is night spent is a political stunt to win votes. think it's a cynical use of policy it's a cynical use of a very serious issue it's a serious use of a contentious issue internationally although most israelis would agree that the bekaa valley belongs to israel and will remain an israeli hands for many many generations but to use it now i think a lot of people think it's a political stunt and it's a political stunt that may work and whereas it is a contentious issue there are people that think that maybe these territories are occupied there are a lot of people that think that they're not and right now the united states is in the corner of the and again this is

a lot of electioneering. that the wiki leaks founder has been in in london prison since april and his legal fight against extradition has fallen that the headlines but some high profile combine is looking to change that and shadi edward stashed reports. campaign as in solidarity with your innocence continue to up the ante and keep him in the public eye as every single day marks another step closer to his extradition to the united states now i'm here at the belmarsh prison where journalists on to us held since april of this year after he was sensationally dragged from london's embassy where he had been holed up since 2012 he's now serving a 50 week sentence at this belmarsh prison for skipping bell back in 2012 but activists here says that sentence is grossly unfair for a preacher you get 50 weeks this is a routine for friends in this country people are on the streets to preach bail

should not be happening this is a political stunt by the british government nothing more well because yes it could be genetic and what you've done is is completely illegal with a few you know the press is a man and they're being murdered literally and people and so you know i mean look i wish all the other people you know if you wish was in there today there are people trying to help him now you're innocent continues to live in limbo of course the united states has indicted him for 17 counts one of them to face trial for spying and publishing classified documents relating to the war in iraq and afghanistan many campaign as an activist including vivienne westwood and leading british fashion designer believes if he were to be extradited he would not face a fair trial took me a month to get to go to to vanish to see him during the time he's been in solitary confinement is now gone but to some of them. what they want to get him for is telling the truth a nice

a freedom fighter democracy is in crisis at the moment but i think that what is happening nevertheless is that the population people are beginning to get the same sort of their own responsibility that they. to get involved because of the publication not to get in the public interest at all at the moment and so i just really think that the public of going to make the old would be in support to julian which i was the most not be extradited but why i couldn't place to ski thinking there why the 5th track team all the time you know just to save him up i mean they remove league with that with this world conspiracy so well journalist song just battle continues his supporters outside bellmawr say he's a i mean campaigner and should be applauded rather than pass a cue to the seeking justice and delivering truth shouted stash they are to u.k.

london still ahead for you this diplomatic turbulence between china and germany sperling gives a high level welcome to one of the leaders of the hong kong protests well have a look at the details on my person of the stories today just off the road. what you showed me that. they put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and you. want to be rich. but you'd like to be 1st this is what before 3 of the people get. interested in the water. they should.

seem wrong. just don't call. me. yet to shape out just they become educated and indeed from an equal betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. welcome back now china is his heritage germany after one of the figureheads of the hong kong protest movement was given a high level reception in berlin joshua one was met by the german foreign minister something beijing said was disrespectful. china is

extremely unhappy at germany for hosting hong kong separatists so they can undertake anti china's separatist activities and a german foreign minister publicly meeting such people it is disrespectful of china's sovereignty and interference in its internal affairs. don't quarter reports now from berlin looking at what message the hong kong activists had for the west. berlin recently rolled out the red carpet for hong kong opposition leader inviting the 22 year old to a human rights event at the boom to stop once there jumped at the opportunity to call hong kong's political situation part of a new cold war we are in the new cold war hall. we earlier you were just standing there with resisting the probably age it was time for wong to turn on the charm for germany's big wigs and foreign minister heiko mosse was one of the 1st to be won over after hearing that one was detained in

china for breaking bail and then released just a day before the event moss was overjoyed. we will come to the fact that. he's free. and what could make a boon to stock conference even better a photo shoot wong was pictured with the leader of the white helmets an organization often praised by western leaders and just as often accused by critics of staging chemical attacks and supporting terrorist groups by now was probably an expert at posing in pictures because just last month he was caught on camera meeting with an employee of the u.s. consulates political division in hong kong and although wong has been hustling hard for that western support he's also been very critical of the west and the fact that they haven't done enough. i want the conflicts to be resolved without violence and anything else would be desirous to join the law is the house but it's a country with 2 systems and this is i'm in hong kong gives people more civil

rights than does the chinese. i thank chancellor merkel for speaking to hong kong in beijing but was far less clear than the hong kong people wanted germany's business interest should not override the universal value we believe in if the chancellor wants to do something then she must help urge president xi to respond to the call for free elections of course china has even more against western officials stoking the flames of opposition in hong kong they've already labelled meetings with western officials as meddling and the root cause of violence in hong kong but based on this most recent rendezvous it seems the west is not listening the topics of the protests address to the hong kong government has moved in the direction that they have asked for the bill has not just been declared dead it has been bridger on an independent police commission framework already exists and it is in the process of putting together an inquiry on with regard to police activities so there really

isn't that much to protest about but they have now escalated their demands and these sort of when meeting mr wong and the congress u.s. congress getting in the act it just provides that much more oxygen for the movement to keep going on even though their protests have been met which is in dibley then drifting towards violence ok let's look at quickly at some other world news now starting in buenos aires where thousands to the streets there to vent their anger at the country's economic situation people are demanding better wages and food aid elections are coming up at the end of october and under the current administration argentina took out the largest lovin i.m.f. history which is seen the country's economic crisis only worse. in iraq a religious holiday turned to a tragedy when a worshiper fell over during a mass ritual starting a stampede that killed 31 people over 100 others were injured witnesses say the man's fall led to

a domino effect of people tripping over each other offices say the stan paid half. and when i walk way collapsed in the european space agency says the amazon rain forest fires have led to a huge jump in pollution levels in brazil the flames rage on despite the country's president banning land clearance fries for 60 days officials say the number of fires in the amazon is the highest since 28. so that brings you up to date that's how all the news is looking so far today here in our see we're back again at the top of the. the same as the 1920 s. and you know there were no laws really on wall street and the abuses were huge and

the market ones are quiet and people began to look at the stock market as the proxy for the economy people are getting wealthy because their stocks are going up and they do they quit their jobs they just become speculators and so this is what happened now people are saying look the economy the real economy is terrible no jobs they've been shipped overseas and i'm nothing left of day trading and the market goes up therefore i'm being productive but it's a piece. with manufactured sentenced to public will. when the remain close to some project. with the crime of your own lives. we can all middle of the room signals. from the real news is.

i saw the jolly roger sighing all have piqued my interest so i went. to ask somebody what is this is a very convenient and they tell me this is season for a day 5 believe in waiting a little fishing oh my god. will and that's kind of interesting.

kyra. well you know the pirate thing we've kind of adopted because we were called pirates for so long but. really. the world is changing our tactics such and things and now we're looking to look to give them the government needs to tie for them to wait like i'm sure they've all seen what's happened in europe i'll go fish is gonna be at and t. the call to call abstemiousness and i think cabs and now the european need to see the east africa it's already in a very bad state like then they got told us they have been there there's still a lot of his name being the ocean so if you look at the situation in somalia the pirates can be argued that they used to be fishermen and then foreign told us came took the fish they have no income so i think it's just common sense that the

country is so waking up. to. the. simple minded. and you must you see them do not count constitutional costs in the name of goodness to amount to consume i'm not good. men married you would never think you know if you. it should be nice to let this beast not exactly

nothing and even give you time to look down in this instance we turn. to. the same song. yes you. know that so yeah but it isn't the money. it's real so he probably. liked it 3.

who think it could actually instruments. you ought. to feel well give up. because well. i guess. this. will sell well i think it's a comic. even cut. completely clueless and muslims coming to you i don't think. it's because of my. own. possible. rocks. but.
