9:00 am
yeah. i. guess. several members of russia's delegation failed to get. in the un general assembly including the chairman of the foreign affairs committee a move. by moscow. the u.k. supreme court ruled. by suspending parliament in a decision by 11 justices it was ruled out. technically. still in my dreams my child and. global attention.
9:01 am
but it seems not everyone is buying into. those behind. me i would have to. child. has had some. seem so fake to me. 247 news live from moscow this is our team international from the team myself you know neal hello and welcome to our top story russia's foreign ministry has said 10 members of its delegation to the u.n. general assembly in new york were denied u.s. visas ahead of this year session criticize the move calling it a provocation on walnut warrants a tough response and join me in the studio with the details. well moscow is
9:02 am
absolutely furious because if you think about it that's a huge thing. constant in russia's prominent politician and the term and all of the foreign affairs committee of the upper term for the russian parliament said he's not going to attend the un general assembly that is open these days in new york because of visa issues and he wasn't actually denied american visa but what basically happened as far as we understand is that his application didn't go through and he was not to fight about that very very last moment and he failed to protect american visa on time it doesn't sound like anything criminal he can still reapply but clearly there is no time enough. so he's going to miss the discussions he were planning to participate in and the thing is that he was not the only one to put in this unpleasant situation we know that at least 8 other members of the russian delegations i mean they arrived this morning in moscow airports with bags with tickets to new york with plans to participate in important debates and they
9:03 am
expected their passports with american visas to be delivered to the airport from the u.s. embassy this is normal procedure but it never happened so this isn't the alchemy aspect of this health situation is that these people were not not to fight about what's going on and the only learned about that very last moment and the u.s. side says talks about some technical problems but constant calls the provocation this is absolutely unprecedented situation. does not have to determine who uses. to participate and who is not to participate in the. united nations. no doubt about it you can see he is very angry it's not exactly clear what marriage is a constant because joe was talking about what we heard from russian president. spokes
9:04 am
person method of discourse also that they will be response from the crowd when there is a furious reaction from the russian foreign ministry as well we know that the us deputy ambassador has been summoned to the foreign ministry here in moscow over some pleasant situation maybe we can expect some clarification later on and we heard from the foreign ministry spokesperson. i mean she described it as an example of huge disrespect from the americans let's take a listen documents that we handed over for process in earlier a couple of months before departure were returned to us with the word they have been handed in early it's an outrageous example of disrespect by the u.s. to u.n. members as well as an example of a failure to fulfill obligation as the host country of the world are going. well good thing is that we hear that. russia's foreign minister who is leading the russian delegation that the u.n. general assembly is going to address this issue at his meeting with. his secretary
9:05 am
of state maybe there will be some explanations. are there any other cases when when foreign delegations have problems entering the u.s. oh yeah of course you have those thoughts for the 1st time and even during the 74th session we heard from teheran that several members of the rat in delegation were north american so we know that the iranian leader mr heinie and the foreign minister mr is going to attend general assembly there delegation is dramatically cut and if you are going to yeah but i mean if you think about it that's a huge thing because the u.n. general assembly is and then you leave and it's a huge platform and if you do a geisha is cut by have i mean of course your work is a factor and your expectations a lawyer and that doesn't sound fair. russian deputy foreign minister. spoken of the problems ordinary citizens are going through while trying to get
9:06 am
visas to the us in an exclusive interview with our 2 which are after this bulletin he also discussed the obstacles moscow and washington are facing in their relations . we have problems in areas that directly affect interests of people from the main street in both places where deprived of our consul a president says for instance at the best coast and we have a long rows before people waiting for interviews at the u.s. consulate missions here this is just an example and it goes across the board from such things further to for instance limitations for normal activities in both places further away cooperation on you know i control a nonproliferation where just stock. let's say delve further into our top story with executive editor of 21st century wired dot com patrick henningsen patrick
9:07 am
welcome back to the show host significant would it be if the u.s. has deliberately prevented russian officials from attending the event general assembly. well past u.s. administrations have had. stranger tenuous relationships with united nations before but this is something on a whole nother level this is the latest sort of maneuvering in a pattern of behavior to undermine the united nations but i think the broader theme people need to look at here is that this administration the trumpet ministration is actively trying to undermine and dismantle multilateral institutions wherever they can find them so they're in in a sense from a wider geo political view you could say that they're trying very hard to dismantle the post world war 2 liberal internationalist led world order that was led by the
9:08 am
united states and in effect trying to transition into something else right now and part of that is by taking a wrecking ball to the united nations and for the host country to do this this is extremely bad. because the united states is hosting the united nations so that calls so much into question at that point so this is just beyond diplomatic games and chess is something else. patrick is the u.s. violated its international obligations as russia is arguing because i know washington would say the u.s. has the right to reject visas for people it believes may pose a threat to its security. well what you can look at this is a type of smart sanctions that the united states is applying to an endless list of people right now going by the u.s. treasury department and so you have unofficial sanctions and official sanctions those people on the lists of course are using that to maybe impede their ability to
9:09 am
travel that includes diplomats take the iranian foreign minister for example the iranian leader for example but the un officially they can do this via bureaucratic red tape and games by using the state department as a kind of political instrument in this way to harass certain countries that the administration believes are perceived as being enemies of the united states but there's a quid pro quo in that they can expect the same treatment on the other end from other countries and then there were united states invariably is going to cry foul and you know throw their hands up in the air and say this is outrageous how could they do such a thing to u.s. officials when in fact the united states is doing it to other countries on its own home field actually so i don't know where the u.s. can go from here when you have moves like this it's the big picture here isn't it because if certain delegations struggle to attend the u.n. general assembly the question is what does that ultimately mean for the you as an organization. sure i mean you can't rule out incompetency by the way because the
9:10 am
united states government is a giant machine the civil service is huge the departments are massive and they are prone to mistakes however these sort of mistakes you don't make generally with high level diplomats and especially in advance of the united nations general assembly which is on the calendar this is something that's expected the visa processes and so forth this is an annual routine as it were for these departments so they anticipated as well yeah and to say that they put their applications into early rather than too late is. quite hard to explain and square basically but this happened to iran as well they threatened to you know keep. a reef and honea from from coming to the to the u.s. this was talked about last week and right at a very crucial time with between saudi arabia iran and we also have the kashmir
9:11 am
crisis going on china and hong kong the i.n.f. treaty being abandoned we have syria right now an impasse and it live but tension is such an important time all diplomats need to be in new york need to be attending all of these important meetings and for the u.s. to do this it really draws into question what the real agenda of this administration is in terms of its relationship with the world just briefly while we have you on the program russia has said it will respond what measures can it take. remains to be seen it's hard to say i mean if russia hosts any major events any international meetings a high level meeting certainly this this could be something to look at also expelling possibly expelling u.s. diplomats limiting the amount of u.s. diplomats allowed in moscow for instance this is been done before between the u.s. and russia this tit for tat diplomatically it's generally not good but you know
9:12 am
normally the united states could expect. a retaliation from russia on this front but at a time and place of moscow's choosing of course project thanks for your time and your thoughts this hour henningsen executive editor of 21st century wired dot com. and later. where the temperature of the. world leaders accusing them of stealing her childhood that's the. big story of the day britain's highest court has dealt an unprecedented legal defeat to the prime minister with judges unanimously ruling that boris johnson's this isn't to suspend parliament earlier this month was a lawful. the prime minister's advice to her majesty was unlawful void of no effect . this means that the order in council to which it led was also
9:13 am
a little full void and of no effect and should be quashed the probation was also void and of no effect parliament has not been. made of discontent from m.p.'s on the public the prime minister suspended parliament a beginning of september for 5 weeks it was widely seen as a move to prevent m.p.'s from scrutinizing his plan to exit the european union on october 31st with or without a deal a scottish court later ruled the move on law full the highest court in the land it means parliament can i said i began the commons speaker says it will resume whedon's stay morning that's tomorrow since nar returning early from the un in new york and intends to plough on with breaks it. this is a vote it did we will respect we respect the judicial process i have to say i strongly disagree with what the justices who and i don't think that.
9:14 am
it's right but the most appalling please we get a little break sit on october 31st of dr mark arnett is a senior politics lecturer at britain's lun kuster university he told the implications really of the supreme court's decision and how he believes mr johnson will react. i think this verdict was extremely strong the wording was very strong nolan void quashed all this kind of thing what the judges of refused to go into the real reasons why mr johnson chose to ask for the queen's preux parliament what they're just said to simply is that it was an unreasonable decision if he takes the same decision again we'll be faced with the same verdicts again and i think that the trouble is with all this is in our own codify the constitution the queen's role is highly sensitive i think that if there were further court cases about this particular issue i just think that this would make the constitutional mess even deeper i think mr johnson has signalled he'll abide by the ruling he will
9:15 am
i think have to do so well i think that he will he one strategy will be to say of course i respect the court's decision i disagree with it but this decision doesn't affect my all thora t. and i'm still going to go ahead negotiate with the e.u. these negotiations are making great progress and so what he could do is just try to cling on until the european summit in the middle of october and try somehow to get a deal i think wherever he looks the only really sensible thing to do would be to resign today but i don't think that he will i think he'll try other avenues 1st. the teenage environmental activists gratitude very deliberate unimpassioned address to the un climate action summit on monday the swedish campaigner rebuked were leaders for feeling as she seated to tackle the destruction of the political
9:16 am
systems and for clinging to quote fairy tales of eternal economic growth. you have stolen my dreams my childhood with your empty words and yet i'm one of the jocks once. people are suffering people are dying entire school systems are collapsing we are in the beginning of a mass extinction and what you can talk about is money and fame or tales of eternal economic growth how did you i 6 also scold our dollar trump when they almost crossed paths but the u.s. president paid 0 attention to the headline grabbing climate activist then left the room a company by security guards as the president arrived at the u.n. headquarters for a separate meeting on religious freedom. when the young activists emotional speech at the u.n. was praised by many people describing her words as inspirational and sympathizing
9:17 am
with her anger against the environmental destruction however the widespread support her has been somewhat soured by a wave of mockery the french education minister had by. all the world leaders saying she shouldn't create a generation of people the press there but climate change member of germany's ruling c.d.u. party also accused the teen of inciting hysteria and colors eki over toneless he believes the 16 year old is being exploited by a money driven management. greater couldn't hurt and this and i was meant warse the big pressure he is a child who has got a very very good management and that is profit oriented and like every figure in the internet or wherever. i would lose much sleep every day he said yes it's a big big. process and of course the profit making process
9:18 am
and so i don't really know what you wrote she says because. if you regard the facts you are the ones that on the on the better side we just stick stick to the facts and we have to make good propositions on how to make the world better and not just making no demonstrations in big kids and way from school or whatever you are. only one making headlines on the climate change plot for french president among all micron has annoyed french climate activists by telling them to move their rallies from parts to poland shall do been to be delved deeper into the. president my corner front has a once again called the planners to help in the fight against climate change speaking at the un climate change emergency summit he said he understood the frustrations of the millions of schoolchildren who had been striking on fridays
9:19 am
next amended to be deployed in one week for months and months now we've heard the young people speaking and i think they've identified an absolute urgency that we have to respond to here but while much corn understands their frustrations his government didn't seem too keen on those climate activists who protested in paris over the weekend with some alleging brute force was used by the police as the violence spiraled out of control. and much corn has made it clear he really wants the protesters to go away well from false at least as what you really really wants is for them to take their anger out on another you country code that yes. every friday to say that the planet is burning that's nice but that is not the problem people should go protest in poland
9:20 am
help me move those i cannot push forward who is upset that poland is refusing to commit to an e.u. target to be carbon neutral by 2050 heads blocking the floor from adopting this is official policy that's not gone down well in poland where the country's deputy foreign minister is accused of the lecturing and it is perhaps difficult to swallow such a lecture when france itself has been accused of calling behind tackling the climate emergency france's mission emissions targets in 3 or 4 big sectors a wise person once said people who live in cost houses. 3 brix advice some may counsel not to take. r.t. us. websites spreading dissin for me generate millions of dollars in

list be without r t but enough about us that see the judges global this information index coalition the governments business and civil society based on neutrality independence and transparency. independence or so who funds them a few non-profits and well there it is the ukase foreign office the one that organized journalists to attack british politicians advocated invading iraq on a false premise and constantly say to people there are decisions that to be made in relation to iraq at all but the reason no doubt that iraq poses a threat in respect of weapons of mass destruction and there is no doubt that this issue is an issue that should be dealt with but state funding aside the advisory panel is a wonder to an apple bomb married to a former polish foreign minister noted for his anti russian stance she herself
9:24 am
prominent peddler of the trump russian collusion story which was all fake in seeking russian support not only to become president but also to make money even as he launched his presidential campaign he hoped to receive a major influx of money from a proposed trump tower in moscow so an independent organization who funded by a foreign ministry the noted peddler of conspiracy theories helping to run it and to think it's these people who are angry that they don't get enough of your money make no mistake once they nail down an algorithm to do the censorship for them you'll never be misinformed again or well hear a different opinion. all right we showed a part of it earlier but no stay close for the full exclusive interview with
9:25 am
russia's deputy foreign minister on the day moscow's delegation at the u.n. were not granted visas in time to attend the general assembly in new york. what politicians do something to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and should. somehow want to be rich. but you want to be close this is what the full story of the whole can't be good. i'm interested always in the waters of the how. things should rule. the world is driven by shaped by one person or those.
9:26 am
who dares thinks. we dare to ask. the guys you live but if she warned you posted by you than i do the dishes at the bottom or those jeans nudist beach and you see me we see you lou true she's. come up on when you guys e.q.'s will be home and it means i mean that is without infringing ball. a lot of you will see as it fights about 2 kids each other both hard. as the middle east. in jail as if archer.
9:27 am
here in chief if you will. find them days doing this is. in english 38 people. in new. england in total. so much for being with us would really appreciate thank you last week here in moscow you had talks with us after in the system secretary of state mr ritter how would you describe the conversation how to doctor was that and what kind of trends did it with vale i'm hopeful that we will move forward we have a very troubling agenda in our relationship which is stuck essentially we were not able to produce any progress nothing to report to her bosses as moral were we have
9:28 am
problems in areas that directly affect interests of people from the main street in both places where deprived of our consular presence is for instance at the best coast and we have long huge rose speed for people waiting for him to use the u.s. consular missions here this is just an example and it goes across the board from such things further to for instance limitations for normal activities of embassies in both places further all were to always konami corp and you know arms control and nonproliferation we're just stuck so the beginning of more an intensified piece of all contacts with the us is quite promising but we should deliver i am hopeful our american colleagues including those you know responsible. this state and the sea and elsewhere will understand that it's not sustainable any more this way as we
9:29 am
saw it in recent years while it what you describe sounds like a little bit like a doomsday how was the conversation did mr ray care understand it the same way as you do well they recognise that something should be done about it and i'm encouraged by the message on his part and on the part of some of his colleagues that we should well this is my interpretation but let me tell you so adopt a doctrine of small step progress this is how we want to move from this current situation and we you know heard some promising you know hints if not signals on the part of the u.s. that it might be possible at least in some areas can we expect any changes in particular due to john bolton's departure from the white house well persons go persons being appointed we need to see what will happen in practice we
9:30 am
should not make the u.s. policy towards russia that personal of course any person has he's or her impact on what is going on eve he or she is at that level and in this position so my expectation would be there would be no abrupt changes since we all recognize there is a what we call here and a russian bipartisan consensus in the u.s. but at least we have a need to do something different and in some cases in some areas like i'm scriptural to do it rapidly otherwise we will not just lose momentum but we will face further troubles are they speaking about other countries some experts talk about a potential shift in u.s. foreign policy in regards to a number of states.
