think it's just somebody taking it off to a degree really enough income quite happy with what it is very very hard. for some to then become a non gender specific person. good morning this is not international on sunday the 15th of october live from moscow with me it's the weekly roundup of the big stories that brought you over the last 7 days and 1st one happening right now this weekend u.s. secretary of state payers accused iran of launching a quote president into the world's energy supply saying that iran is behind attacks on saudi arabia's oil production. we call on all nations to publicly and unequivocally condemn iran's attacks the united states will work with our partners and allies to ensure that energy markets remain well supplied and iran is held

accountable for its aggression so as it stands at the moment all production in saudi arabia this morning is now in half as a result of those fires at 2 major state run oil facilities eyewitnesses shared a video on twitter capturing a huge blaze and gunshots in the background earlier yemen's who through rebels claimed responsibility for deploying nearly a dozen drones to attack the all press and processing facility at a major oil field 2 they say the strikes were in response to the saudi led war in yemen and they're demanding an end to riyadh's 4 year long intervention in the country backed by the us or washington's also previously charged around with lending support to the who things to bear in mind the professor of political science at university of to ram believes these latest accusations from the us are most likely baseless. how long my current one has a very long history of making accusations without providing any actual evidence to the who deserve already claimed responsibility for these attacks and although the

scale of these attacks are on precedented we have to remember that the who tees have launched drone attacks deep inside saudi arabia for months now so i think there is no surprise there the us has accused iran of sending weaponry to the who tease but we also have to remember that yemen has been under a very severe military blockade by the saudis with the help actually of the americans for over 4 years now making it very difficult to even send food lead to loan weaponry so i think he's just trying to come up with excuses to charge iran of crimes that iran has actually not committed the iran rhetoric from the u.s. continues even after one of 2 rounds most outspoken critics the national security advisor john bolton was fired by president trump on tuesday but well known for his aggressive hawkish approach to foreign policy because he backed scrapping the iran nuclear deal as well as supporting the idea of regime change into iran he also

supported the u.s. intervention in syria and restored slee against these in pressure on north korea that hawkins takes a closer look at bolton's track 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 bolton and have other 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 of views himself as a skilled dealmaker who talked tough were 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 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 for symbolic photo op the right intentions seems to be their bet it will make it clear that they won't i don't 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 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 off a missile test in 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 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 that possible after so much hostile rhetoric perhaps the final straw was trump's plans of wind down the longest war in u.s. history including hosting talks with taliban 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. staff person who works directly for the president that states and he should have people he trusted values and whose efforts and judgments benefit him and delivering american foreign policy it seems that with all without bolton's presence u.s. foreign policy may have more surprises in store during trump's 1st. house when the weekly the un the e.u. and some arab countries condemned campaign promise by the israeli prime minister to an exam large parts of the occupied west bank but pledge head of a snap election jew this choose day and he hinted that washington are to prove his plan to. 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 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 the area's home to 3000000 palestinians but increasing numbers of israelis have settled there of reason is with major international organizations labeling it occupied territory and there's concern too that a move by israel now to seize the area known as the jordan valley would mark an end to a 2 state solution in this historic conflict. meantime

the trumpet ministrations long delayed peace plan for the israeli palestinian conflict is set for publication of those elections in israel tuesday but adding to the doubts about the deal is the resignation of the u.s. special envoy for middle east peace and the palestinian leaderships already rejected the proposal to say it's clearly biased towards israel previously details highlighted some key areas like an expansion of israel's territory to include west bank settlements while palestinians could get part of the gaza strip for infrastructure but couldn't actually live that the leaks also suggested that the palestinians would be forbidden from having an army of guests thrash the plans 1st of all let's agree that the there and there might be a plan that the us administration is working on but that peace is not part of it and the palestinians are not part of it then that's why the palestinians have taken

the very logical approach in forming the international committee that so long as this administration does not recognize palestine the end rights for international law there's really not much to talk about if the palestinians are going to simply boycott mr green blood boycott mr trump boycott the saudis boycott anything before they even seen the play and then there's no opportunity for engagement this is the time for engagement not for boycotts and when you start to boycott the arab world and the united states you're going down a very slippery slide and i got to be arab or else or miss. no but is well i can tell the audience have with palestine is an integral part of the arab world mr greenblatt is someone who has is not only committed ideologically to the settler movement he is a contributor to the entrancement of the supplement regime which is illegal under international law in the heart of the occupied west bank so there was never. a

moment where this administration even made a slight effort to give the impression that it has any inclination or any interest in being balanced in being objective it's the palestinian authority that have got to get with the program they live in the middle east that they essentially believe they are the center of the middle east and they're really they've really become a footnote and they're about to throw the throw themselves excuse me into the waste basket of history of unless they begin to engage with the greatest superpower on earth which is the troubled ministration who truly wants the best for the palestinian people and is trying yet again after 25 years of failures to help the palestinian people and their israeli neighbors come to a diplomatic political and economic solution and the palestinians throughout the past years with successive american administrations have bent over backwards to try

and reach a solution that would guarantee a real 2 state formula now if you're talking about formulas that were presented that would give the palestinians far less than a state then naturally the palestinian leadership which is accountable to the palestinian people cannot accept something that is not acceptable less than a palestinian state it's time for the palestinian authority to pony up and get with the program so that they can achieve the type of independence that israel can have the type of the rights and security that the jewish people so much deserve in this part of the world so it's a win win recognizing israel's illegal annexation of tourists. has been rejected worldwide recognizing israel's illegal annexation of the syrian golan has been rejected worldwide when when situation in the middle east is quite simple and it starts by putting the occupation in the historic waste bin. so if you create next there

a cartoon fireman's big criticize for failing to keep up with modern equality standards the classic children's t.v. code has been axed from his job as a mascot for a local brigade after bosses the said you could discourage women from joining. his friends needed more than an. hour. from the phone to the rescue team managed to save the day well fireman 1st aired in 1987 as another mation the boat fire fighters in a small welsh village was welsh like me since there has been widely used to promote fire safety and services across the u.k. but now it seems the time is up in some parts at least as artie's only boy or explains. generations of kids may have grown up with him but legendary children's t.v. show character fine i am and sam needs to get with the times that's according to the lincolnshire fire and rescue service for

that in mind lincolnshire fire and rescue service have come up with 3 original new characters to help attract more diverse recruits that anthropomorphise sized fire extinguishes freddy filled but and penelope. so the current in more the big news of the last 7 days brought us to you donald trump drops a brokered peace deal with the taliban just as it's about to be finalized we'll tell you why when we come back. you know world big part of the lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than

ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. the world is driven by a dream shaped by our own personal there is. no day or thinks. we dare to ask.

again good morning the afghan taliban is urging donald trump to return to the negotiating table in the exclusive interview with a they were here in moscow as part of regular talks with russian officials this week trump shut down the year long peace process with a militant group that could have seen an end hold most 2 decades of the u.s. war in afghanistan the taliban negotiators were supposed to go to the united states before signing an agreement deal was to include america withdrawing troops in exchange for a commitment from the militants not to sheltered terrorists trump justified end the negotiations citing an islamist attack in the afghan capital results in the death of an american soldier. the taliban how to expects trump to negotiate with them when they're killing his troops. the next day when mr tucker cancelled this item. negotiation he and mr buffett were his father is that he says he admitted

that he had good $1000.00 well so if big dollars off us why we could not get one out of there were 2 other daughters imposed on us. american soldiers there and i want to stop it's not i'll admit it the soldiers are going to be in washington they are never there was a lot of us but still we. proposed and riyadh keen to bring peace and i want some through that was hisham but unfortunately i need to add which we reached some sort of finality when it was canceled by the american side cites if the if the american side is not really negotiation and did not want peace on the table so all that we would be compared to defend ourselves i would never produce $500.00 he is. i don't know that that is i'm behind it maybe you can ask them what happened but if we are still committed to the negotiations we said that to her i would stand our

policy from this time we committed her by this time is that there's no solution for the one conflict except it was she sions and accepted peace on the table so here we are if i realize that we hope that mr tung he didn't fit his. announcement in he come back to where we were and we just signed a draft after that and practically be able to recover the ground. the taliban which now holds more territory than before the us invaded afghanistan in 2001 is frequently responsible for terrorist attacks across the country. you know.
