good evening and welcome this is r.t. international. president is a learned skill has spoken with the u.s. secretary of state by phone with mike pompei offering america's support in the investigation into the crash of ukrainian passenger plane in iran on wednesday. had a phone call with secretary pump am grateful for the condolences of the american people and valuable support of the u.s. in investigating the causes of the plane crash information obtained from the us will assist in the investigation earlier washington passed quote important data relating to the instant to ukraine's leader the us canada and u.k. all say that they have evidence suggesting a rocket from iran itself brought down the ukrainian international airline jet killing all one $176.00 on board around denies any missiles involved and has invited international experts to monitor and suggest occasion. this immediate

family will out the we can see the french the canadians and the swedish to come here and see how we investigate this crash special is bodies in canada and america that investigate crashes we trust those bodies what we can say with absolute certainty is that no missile has had the splay these are the latest pictures from the crash site all passengers belongs can be made out in then there is reportedly no longer cordoned off and investigators are no longer present earlier around said that the craft wreckage parts are being collected and transferred to a safe location. the plane's black box is recovered from the crash site and shown by iran's state media to iran says the claim the jet was down by a missile or illogical and impossible although the nato chief begs to differ. beyond all reason to. believe the reports we have seen from different nato allied capitals have expressed concern about. information indicating

that. plane may have been downed by iranian air defenses systems. and he says get a look at our speculations been mounting even before any probe is being carried out . nothing instills confidence in international leaders more than my love of precise language. we have intelligence from multiple sources including around lies and our own intelligence. the evidence indicates that the plane was shot down by an array near the surface to air missile and it was flying in a pretty rough neighborhood and somebody could have made a mistake some people say was be can it go i personally don't think that's. even a question there is now a body of information that the fly was shot down by an iranian surface to air missile which may well have been unintentional we are working closely with canada and our international partners and they now need to be a full transparent investigation on specific intelligence unnamed allies multiple

mysterious sources hardly the right one expects a at that level of diplomacy and b. when discussing the tragedy that's left 176 dead but it's on surprising that iran has batted off this latest slew of unfounded allegations about the crash of ukrainian airlines flight $75.00 to a nudge for calm and not check to prevail scientifically it is impossible that a missile hit the ukrainian plane and such room is illogical it's not an unreasonable request the investigation into the events of wednesday morning which saw the boeing 737 crash just minutes after takeoff has only just begun final report into aviation disasters take months if not years to be published they require coordination between numerous government organizations which is why iran has invited multiple investigators including from boeing to visit the crash site in
11:05 am
the meantime all there is a series with nothing but unnamed sources to back it all up which is why amid all the confusion and contradictions the ukrainian president who lost 11 on. his citizens that morning as they returned home also called for an end to all the chatter and noise he ever asking everyone to refrain from speculation conspiracy theories hasty conclusions and unverified versions and it's not a topic for hype but the spiraling tensions between tehran and washington especially in the past week have triggered an unprecedented level of scrutiny on the region and people don't seem willing to heed calls for calm especially when they feel the tide might be turning in a favored direction iraq could strike possible missile system is among the main working theories since there was information on the internet about elements of the russian missile being found near the site of the crash it didn't take long for the
11:06 am
mainstream media to jump on that bandwagon c.n.n. has never been one to turn down an unverified source especially when russia is involved pointed the finger at a bomb or missile new evidence indicates iran shot down ukrainian flight 752 with 2 surface to air missiles made by russia and the undeniable evidence they offered a photo from twitter posted on the count that was later suspended maybe it breached the company's fake news guidelines but nonetheless even all the way across the pond the hysteria continued for the 1st one is the possibility that that plane was hit by a russian missile just after takeoff independent also published an article citing something called the o.p.'s group an independent organization which has little to recommend itself other than it provides information and aviation professionals and fox's
11:07 am
that's according to its twitter page nevertheless it felt confident enough to recommend people just assume the plane was shot down until evidence to the contrary emerges guilty until proven innocent it's a new name of the game in today's political landscape. it's been claimed a new video shows a missile streaking into the night sky of tehran an exploding is it not ject c.n.n. suggests it was taken approximately at the time the crimean plane took its doomed flight we asked independent journalist martin summers what he thinks about the role the media plays as investigators as you know there's a whole question a struggle goes on all the time for what might be called legitimacy to speak and of course what we've got in the modern world is in the english language is a massive variety of sources of all collines with varying competing narratives now it's a bit confusing but in many ways it's liberating as long as people recognize that we shouldn't believe everything you hear and that if you've actually got to make your own do your own work and sort through what you what you're being presented

with a new and to trust some places it was more reliable than others many in many cases they've been shown in the past have been lying and to be been knowingly manipulated by western intelligence sources they can do that if they like but of course if they get caught out doing it then they lose their credibility that's the game you can lie if you like but if you get caught then you're a liar and therefore they've got to think very carefully whether they're going to blog with stories like that. your sounds of representatives has passed a resolution aimed at limiting president terms ability to use military force against iran however the bill may not pass the republican controlled senate the white house condemned the bill as an obstacle to preventing terrorism in the morgan has details. trump is imposing new sanctions on the islamic republic of iran saying that they will stay in place until america's bidding is done they're losing a tremendous amount they getting heard very badly by the sanctions can in very
11:09 am
quickly but as to whether or not they want that's up to them not up to me it's totally up to them it's classic trump said an ultimatum and wait for a surrender but it's a little bit risky given that it's a ron which has boasted that its latest attacks on u.s. bases are just a hint of its retaliatory capabilities however it's a different kind of retaliation that's facing trump at the moment the trumpet ministration is now on the defensive about their decision to kill iran stop general qassam solid money without congressional approval their excuse they say qassam solomonic he was planning to carry out new attacks against america and swift action was absolutely necessary. was actively planning new attacks and here is looking very seriously at our embassies and not just the embassy in baghdad but we stopped him and we stopped him quickly and we stopped him. there is no doubt that there were a series of imminent attacks that were being plotted by qassam so the money we
11:10 am
don't know precisely when and we don't know precisely where but it was real however members of congress both democrats and republicans who saw the classified intelligence briefing say that the information in the report to back up those claims is wanting his the unclassified version of what trump sent congress after the hits on some the money from all we've seen including the redacted parts here and the briefing the facts do not show an imminent threat there just avoid the nation. so little money for claiming that he was planning imminent attacks and yet they produce no evidence that would just avoid this claim not even in a classified setting i wanted to hear the intel. 1st what i hear was less than satisfying i can tell you as a united states senator coming out of a classified briefing they did not show us that they were dealing with an imminent threat i saw no evidence of that whatsoever that was insulting that was demeaning
11:11 am
to the process ordained by the constitution and i find it completely unacceptable the white house says it is not obligated to share all the information with members of congress and that doing so might me risky mike pence says that at this point congress shouldn't expect anything further and they should trust the president when it comes to intelligence we have to protect sources and methods and so there's only a certain amount that we can share with every member of congress i can assure that those of us that have seen all the evidence that saw the evidence in real time know that president trump made the right decision now this isn't the 1st time that the house and senate have been left in the dark claims about russia hacking the d.n.c. or china spying on the whole world and followed roughly the same playbook there doesn't seem to be any real evidence that iran was planning to attack america that friend in washington d.c.
11:12 am
seems to be that the executive branch is out on its own collecting information and engaging in military actions congress is just supposed to take their word for it and trust them and while that may be the steady trend for decades it seems like in the year a 2020 elected representatives from both parties are now saying they're not ok with it i think there is a lot of. american public. concern about the assassination and the fact that it pulls young people think that it made americans less safe and so what was the point and i don't think people are buying troops explanation that he gave that it was because of an imminent attack on the u.s. embassy. you know and i mean i think that. you can't close the door and not absolutely and it will also merely support the we're perish in the ocean thankful rex caretaker prime minister has demanded that the u.s.

begin preparations for troop pullout and a phone call abdel mahdi asked u.s. secretary of state mike pompei or to send a delegation to to iraq to work out a withdrawal mechanism u.s. department of state has responded hailing american troops as quote a force for good in the middle east statement goes on to say that any delegation sent to iraq would discuss america's right to have a presence in the middle east as opposed to troop withdrawal writer and political analyst flay told us both politicians and the general public in iraq are tired of a foreign military presence so far 2003 american iraqi relation. went through different stages but now it seems very critical point after the military action in. iraq we have seen the bag that the story the many protest. calling not only for reform or me under

policeman 2 of the government but also for clearing you the country of all foreign forces so this is a. very strong means to dream whether in the public level or political level. french governments pension reform plans have been whipping up fury for over a month a draft bill of the projects that would present the bill be presented to the council of ministers in 2 weeks time is being revealed the main bone of contention increase in pension age although according to the text it's not something that would apply to 2022 unless in a turn it is suggested it has more. will you still need to me will you still feed me when i'm 64 or so goes the chorus to that song sung by the beatles now back in the 1960 s. when it was recorded average life spans were far shorter than they are today in france it was around 70 years old the idea of being 64 suggested you were probably
11:15 am
close to you wrote expiration. in france they consider that the us too healthy at the age of 63 so for us if unacceptable to diet work in bad health. it is very possible to die at work at this age. people are tired of that age they can't continue working as phones enters into it 6 week of strikes over proposed changes to the pension system the one element that's really seems to be roiling people is the up being over the age that you can retire at with a full pension to yes you guessed it $64.00 polls show that 2 thirds of respondents find this to be on palatable while some unions if even demanded that all references to retirement at $64.00 be removed from the law. this new age is unfair because it will be no lies those who started working young economists agree that it's unnecessary and people are against it despite the opposition this seems to be
11:16 am
a sticking point for the government. i think our citizens know that everywhere in europe in countries like ours across europe people work a little longer because life expectancy is going up. well he's right life expectancy has increased significantly in the last 50 years in fact in france the median lifespan is now 83 years old meaning the average person were toys at 64 would be dipping into the pension system to some 19 years and even if the government refuses to budge all not retirement age compared. other countries in the e.u. some might say that the french have it pretty good in countries like sweden denmark portugal germany and many more the age of retirement is already higher than the current age of retirement funds at 62 and it would still be higher than the new threshold at 64 in addition the life expectancy in these countries is lower than
11:17 am
the fronts meaning that people who work longer to retire on average in those countries and are more likely to access their pension for shorter periods of toil so why are the french making such a song and dance about this. it is not about comparing countries it's about social regression it's about pensions and we don't know what will be next why not sit generally lower the retirement age to $60.00 to $60.00 we should do the opposite and not race to the bottom that's the issue for the european union as a whole only seem to believe that france's current retirement system is economically viable so as long as we support retirement funds we do not need to slash workers' rights. the main problem for us is not the retirement age the main problem is 0 hour contracts for this this signifies the complete breakdown of the
11:18 am
social system. it seems for the french regardless of what they european neighbors might be doing when they turn 64 they want to already be enjoying their retirement and this is no indication jollity been skiing all see paris. and the pharmaceutical giant sabai a has a new chief of public and government affairs to bids to make its image more environmentally friendly will break down one of everyone's buying but after a short break. you know world a big part of the law and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we

any unnecessary limitations on the work of foreign journalists or media. it was last year the studio began an aggressive campaign against news they began threatening journalists most of whom are sunni and citizens working for sporting news with jailed with criminal liability with prosecution merely for working for the organization the justification that they're using here is that the head of the parent company that owns news under european sanctions he's personally and the european sanctions so not do you organization that he heads and he was placed there back in 2014 a student he is now saying you know after all these years that because he's sanctioned by the european union individual sanctions that everything he heads is also under sanctions that essentially new european organizational citizen can work with them and there's still one year is the only country in the european union that

monsanto has never had any respect for the environment in any of its work it's not honorable to all of a sudden pick out one thing and claim that they're going to be for sustainable environment it's what we call green washing when a company over a sudden jumps on something sustainable and claims that they're doing the right thing while it is a common trend because they realize that young people have different ideas than their parents and grandparents so they are trying to reach these young people and make them favorable to their companies and their products. ok and that wraps it up for this i appreciate staying with ati updates coming your way at the top of it .
