a hong kong protest leader as he urges the e.u. to use human rights as a bargaining chip in trade talks with beijing. a very warm welcome to the program from all of us here at our in moscow thanks for joining us this hour. the u.s. president has sacked his 3rd security adviser citing multiple disagreements john bolton's policies were seen by many as controversial and attractive plenty of criticism. i know everyone's talked about this for an awfully long time there were definite places that best and i told them i had different views about how we should proceed quickly and i simply put down the. survey and policy for. your young friend bolton comes out of the same group of advisors that led us into war in iraq and have caused america to put our troops in harm's way for far too

often too little benefits bolton is well known for his aggressive hawkish approach to foreign policy he supported the u.s. intervention in syria and was staunchly against using pressure on north korea he also adopted a tough stance on iran and backed scrapping the nuclear deal done hawkins has been taking 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 and his national security advisor would have their disagreements i'm the one that tempers him but that's ok i have different sides i mean i have john gottman ever the people that are a little more dovish than him and ultimately i make that decision we can speculate on which exact what will lead to bolton's exit the failed talks on afghanistan the question of rush hour or perhaps a run 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 of 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 trump views himself as a skilled dealmaker who talked 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 madeira government using any means necessary all options on the table ready to go this troika of tyranny this triangle of chair stretching from havana to caracas to managua is the cause of

immense human suffering this is a time for action. trump showed he was willing to meet to negotiate with even the greatest perceived u.s. adversities even if it meant just a symbolic photo op the right intentions seems to be their bet it will make it clear that they won't go like sanctions because. this 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 non productive meeting we have very much in mind the libyan model from 20032004 while bolton boiled that north korea had violated u.n. sanctions offer a 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 seen the u.s. have 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 and as ever his thinly veiled threats centered around regime change we hope that these new measures directed at the arabian 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 any it would have thought possible after so much hostile rhetoric perhaps the final straw was trump's plan to wind down the longest war in u.s. history including hosting talks with touted by leaders at camp david it's speculated that bolton this was in comprehensible so what's next for u.s.

foreign policy will trumps 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 steps that he wants that at any moment this. staff person who works directly for the president states and he should have people he trusted values and whose efforts and judgments benefit him in delivering american foreign policy and seems that way though without bolton's presence u.s. foreign policy might have more surprises in store during trump's. we discuss bolton's dismissal with former u.s. naval intelligence officer steven rogers and former u.s. congressman ron paul. john bolton was rather more hawkish than any national security advisor that i've seen least in my lifetime 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 advisor john bolton was not respecting the wishes of the present united states the president is the duly elected representative in 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 trump is making progress bold you know but in any room is this so i think the timing is just too late i mean not to lay bad later than it should be as you'd been 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. say marks 18 years since the $911.00 terror attacks in the united states and memorial services are being held across the country and around the world and the thousands killed and injured. despite inquiries and investigations many facts still remain unclear with survivors and relatives launching lawsuits against the saudi government claiming it aided

some of the masterminds behind the attacks parts of the legal action also demand the us government discloses names redacted and one of the f.b.i.'s documents on the issue some survivors say the role of saudi arabia has been downplayed at the highest levels and allege a senior intelligence official contributed to the cover up at the time of the attacks the man in charge of the f.b.i. was robert mueller of the russia collusion probe fame he oversaw the agency's not 11 and best a geisha and later testified he wasn't aware of any saudi links with more details has killed more than. the 911 attacks that shocked the world took place 18 years ago on wednesday the cost in terms of human life was massive in response to 911 the f.b.i. launched a massive investigation and who headed up that investigation robert muller and that's the same robert mueller who recently led the probe into allegations of trumped russia collusion now the media portrayed robert mueller as a relentless crusader he was standing up to trumpet and digging for truth but when it came to investigating foreign influence into 911 he looked

a little bit soft riyadh was an obvious target for an investigation into the 911 attacks the possible complicity of saudi arabia was brought up from the beginning osama bin laden himself a saudi as are 15 of the 19 hijackers now saudi arabia of course denies any wrongdoing but now a victim of 911 is speaking up and saying that robert mueller appeared to be covering for saudi arabia in his investigation the saudi arabia was from the very beginning involved through the whole process and they didn't want to see information go wow that's a matter of fact even the obama administration the one. formation to be revealed the wanted to preserve. the geopolitical region 1st the. needs of the families and the family members survivors that were directly affected by the event so in that way it was. a way to digest the level of

incompetence that we had in the government regarding to the 911 investigation i believe that all up to now we still don't know everything that happened on that day that the f.b.i. agents who did begin to look into saudi arabia actually collected all kinds of data but they weren't allowed to share any of it diplomatic and intelligence person know of saudi arabia knowingly provided material support to the 2 hijackers and facilitated the $911.00 plot another former f.b.i. agent says that prince bandar who was. at that point the saudi ambassador should have been a suspect he should be treated as a terrorist suspect as should other members of the saudi elite class who the u.s. government knows are currently funding the global jihad but the f.b.i. didn't question bandar instead $1.00 was assigned to a sport a whole slew of saudi officials and at least one member of the bin laden family on a plane out of the country for any arab the joint terrorism task force says that he was investigating

a saudi cleric for his possible role in the $911.00 attacks he says that his warrant for this cleric was cancelled and the cleric also got a special flight out of the country. lucky was a very high value target everybody wanted to wrap him up get him in a chair and see what he knew about the money then we got the word that they just wanted to rescind the warrant and everybody's like what do you want to do that for the justice department was afraid to be embarrassed by the entire lucky episode not only did robert mueller seem to have the back of the saudis when it came to his work at the f.b.i. but he also objected to the senate intel committee looking into a possible role in 911 by the saudis as well investigates and michael jacobson came across a stray reference to a bureau informant in san diego who had known one of the hijackers bob graham the former chairman of the senate intelligence committee said that robert mueller made the strongest objections to jacobson and his colleagues visiting san diego 18 years

on many americans have lots of questions about 911 what forces could have conspired along with the hijackers and it seems like a lot of these very legitimate questions have not been answered. r.t. new york we spoke to a former f.b.i. agent who was active during investigations into 911 he says failures in the process led to policy decisions that have only cause more suffering. if they had gone through the truth about how the 911 attacks had occurred and how all these failures to share information to even read information if they had done that within a couple of months and i'm sure most of the agents would have told the truth of the the war in iraq for instance would not have been launched there probably would have been no guantanamo no torture no rounding up of innocent people in new york city robert muller did play a role he followed orders and he did not he did not allow for instance the joint

intelligence committee to look into the. the 2 hijackers who were coming to california who were actually staying with an f.b.i. informant he required that he would not allow that f.b.i. source to be interviewed robert muller along with condi rice along with the bush administration were saying that they had no advance warning that the 911 attacks would occur and this was of course completely opposite of the truth there were many many intelligence warnings in memos that came from a number of different intelligence agencies. we've approached the f.b.i. although it's refused to give us a comment on the story we've also sent a request to robert mueller himself we'll bring you his response as soon as we get it. the u.n. has issued a stark warning to benjamin netanyahu over his new plans for the west bank israeli prime minister is up for reelection next week and as promised annex large parts of

the territory if he wins. in the sudan for most a whole year we are on the eve of elections president trump said that after the elections he would present he's deal of the century for a permanent agreement for israel 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 with 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. of the council is considering this announcement a series developments and a new israeli aggression through its intention to violate international law the un

charter and the concerned resolutions of the international legitimacy the area is home to some 3000000 palestinians but increasing numbers of israelis have settled there in recent years with major international organizations labeling it occupied territory and there's concern any move by israel to seize the jordan valley will mark an end to a 2 state solution to the historic conflict were. meanwhile one of netanyahu is challengers in the upcoming election benny gantz who himself was a former f.b.i. d.f. chief has suggested palestinians love living under occupation. the best place to be

the release is right and the 2nd best place to be with this is the place. we spoke to jamal juma head of the national movement against the border wall in the west bank he draws parallels between netanyahu statement and the argument south african politicians used to justify their apartheid regime in the eighty's. unfortunately this is just like the destruction of any possibility in the future for any peace with this people it's just remind me of the south african apartheid regime when he was telling the african the south african people you are living but other than any of that african countries people in other countries this is very very racist and that you didn't he go just like this this is show us what kind of mentality that we are leading with in this is the unity that should from that and young to many guts to all of this put it this is that they are showing as much as they can on photo the get the legitimacy how much of the audit humiliating put us to unions how much the art of taking the bus team is and taking the palestinian and

confiscating them eliminating that but i've seen an identity this is their main issue is that going did it and it meant program in order to be elected by those that i dislike. still to come in the program diplomatic turbulence between china and germany as berlin gives a high level welcome to one of the leaders of the hong kong protest movement we've got the details on that and more after the break. what politicians do you should. put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. some want to be. actually going to be approached this is like before 3 of the people. i'm interested in the why is it that. this should.

seem wrong. why don't we all just don't call. me. yet to see. this day become educated and in detroit equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. she says to look for common ground. welcome back the protests in hong kong are to remain as passionate as ever even though the authorities have withdrawn a controversial extradition law which sparked the rallies that's the message from one of the protest movements figureheads joshua long during

a media conference and berlin the activists also called on europe to put economic pressure on beijing withdrawal of the feel is far from enough the protests in whole call i'm not likely to stop because we are still fighting for our fundamental rights and democracy what i hope is apart from each statement to show his support on hong kong's democratization we strongly hope. in the future european union when they need to make trade negotiation with china they could at human right cause related to hong kong protests addressing the media wasn't all joshua wang was in town for earlier on tuesday he was given a high level reception in berlin our german foreign minister hickam us and response the chinese foreign ministry summoned the german ambassador and protests at the reception chinese officials described the meet and greet as disrespectful. to either china is extremely unhappy at germany for hosting hong kong separatists so

they can undertake anti china separatist activities and a german foreign minister publicly admitting such people it is disrespectful of china's sovereignty interference in its internal affairs. artie's done a quarter reports 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 busy to a human rights event at the buddhist stock once there jumped at the opportunity to call hong kong's political situation part of a new cold war we are in a new cobol halt. we heard every word to say. it is resisting the price rise it was time for wong to turn on the charm for germany's big wigs and foreign minister heiko moss was $1.00 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 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 wong's 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 wang 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 of the food devolve i want the conflicts to be resolved without violence and anything else would be a disaster and joining the law is a 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 think 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 president she responds to the cool for free elections of course china is even more against. western officials stoking the flames of opposition in hong kong they've already labeled 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 addressed the hong kong government has moved in the direction that they have asked for the bill has not just been declared dead has been drawn and independence police commission through my work already exists and it is in the process of putting together an inquiry on with regard to police to a t s so there really isn't that much to protest about but they have no escalated

to the demands and these sort of meeting mr wong and the congress u.s. congress could do and it just provides that much more oxygen for the movement to keep going on even though their protests are being met which is in drifting towards violence. in moscow court has deferred the embezzlement case of a prominent russian theater director back to the prosecutor's office 2 years after his arrest signing inconsistency and controversy around the official charges we go live now to media questioning for the details we do know there's been quite a bit of attention around this case how significant is this decision well it is quite a significant decision as the court has decided to lift the travel restriction for russian film and theater director said he will see the opinion of now moreover the court has also decided to defer this really controversial embezzlement keith's back to the prosecutor's office and this is how the judge explained her decision. the

court has decided to hand the case back to the prosecutor's office due to contradictions that hamper the investigation and judgment well this case has been dragging on for almost 2 years. was arrested back in september 2017 the investigators were. accusing him. around $2000000.00 allocated by the state for the development of morton and russia while he denied charges and now he is the restroom a lot of international attention was the main high profile figures in the world of culture offering their support now is to be able to think of who is a winner of the price of the cannes film festival was placed under house arrest back in october 2017 and then earlier this april april this year of the court

changed at this measure to travel restrictions preventing him from leaving moscow and now this twist this latest twist in this long drone out. latest thank you. that's a global news wrap up for now but i'll be back at the top of the hour with the latest thanks for tuning in. to the mostly the 1920 s. and you know there were no laws really on wall street and the abuses were huge and the market won quite 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 to be on the job 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 obviously. join me every thursday on the alex i'm unsure when i'll be speaking to get us out of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. i saw the jolly roger flying all have piqued my interest so i went.

to. my ask somebody what is this is a very convenient ticket and they tell me this is season for and they. i believe in waiting to go fishing oh my god i'm told that's kind of interesting. well you know the fire they were kind of adopted because we were called pirates for so long but. really. the world is changing our tactics such a endings and now we're looking to look to get everything government needs to tie for them to wait like i'm sure they've all seen what's happened in europe i'll go

fishing on the at and t. they're called to call abstemiousness and i think cabbage and now the european need to see. 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 emptying the ocean so if you look at the situation in somalia the pirates can be argued they used to be fishermen and then foreign told us they looked at fish they have no income so i think it's just common sense that the country is so waking up.

to. simple mind. and you must use your own homestead a few times to learn and good ones to consume i'm not good news. look to memetics him down wouldn't it make good on you could you keep it to show the minutes to the leftist p.c. not exactly nothing but even if you have to. look down to the simpsons to turn him in. there. if. it's about.
