you got 2 eyes and 2 ears and one mouth. so you should be seeing and hear and a whole lot more than you're saying if you don't take that advice, usually going to date yourself a whole top headlines here on the us media lashes offered joe biden, after the geneva summit saying he gave vitamin putin. what he wanted and made america look week, although the russian leader takes a very different view, fight and is a professional. and you've got to be very careful with him in order not to miss anything. he doesn't miss anything. i can assure you. first us russia summit of the bite and president he did deliver the mixed results with both sides pointing to t, but unresolved issues, but also agreeing to reinstate there is a region of central italy gives the green light to tourists to have received russia. sputnik,
11:01 am
very short, despite a lack of approval so far from the european medicines agency, one regional counselor spoke to us here at austin. we will know sputnik works and therefore it is probably a continuation of the european union's policy towards the russian federation. ah, i went off to 6 pm here on thursday. this is our t into national line from moscow is a busy day for your worldwide news. let's get straight into it for you. let me putin has described his summit in geneva with joe biden as constructive and without hostility, while those us counterpart called it positive, it was their 1st face to face meeting as presidents and last had roughly 3 and a half hours the who's
11:02 am
now, despite the generally positive tone from both presidents, the american media is not happy. in the past 24 hours, that's been an outpouring of negative coverage, accusing joe biden of simply not being tough enough. let's get some more details. not, not the new york caleb often joining us here on the program. can you take us through some of the negative reaction? i guess we could say from the us media. sure, in the lead up to the summit, we saw us media playing up. the question would joe biden be tough enough against russian president vladimir putin seemed like that was the focus, the fact that the 2 countries are trying to get out of diplomatic deadlock. the arms control treaties that we're going to be discuss really didn't seem to be a priority in the us media. the focus was rather on being confrontational and
11:03 am
judging from today's headlines. it appears in the assessment of most of american media biden has failed to live up to their expectations. they are saying that he gave putin the world stage that he craved. we've also got some that are saying he quote, gave a gift to a killer other outlets are lamenting how biden they allege made the united states look weaker. some of the alleged, he was tougher on his cnn, cnn journalist who asked him questions and he was on his russian counterpart. and we even have articles from the hill saying that that biden lost to putin simply because he showed up. there's another article in the hill that says that biden, that basically marks biden's inability to speak without a teleprompter. now, this seems to be something that most fox news and cnn agree on. it seems like there's universal disappointment with biden in the u. s. press for how the summit
11:04 am
went. let's review. it's obviously a test and president might fail. this is a guy who prides himself on president putin's on wrestling bears riding tigers. last sewing the moon. i mean he's, he's got this image that's bigger than now and he wants that and that, and president fun help perpetuate some of that. today. it was bad. we didn't get anything. we gave a very big stage to russia and we got nothing. we gave up something that was unbelievably valuable. i think it was a good day for russia. i don't see what we got out of it. i don't see that bite and got anything from potent. so they just gave great advantage to mr. newton calling him a great power, a worthy adversary, bright and tough, all of those flattery words to get him to respect. those were all this summer really in terms of whether it gets results as a gamble for joe biden. he doesn't know if his gamble of actually inviting the
11:05 am
summit is going to pay off. now it's hard to tell the town of the meeting face to face as that took place in the villa behind closed doors. however, from the pressure that took place afterwards, it seems pretty clear that biden was not hesitant to bring up thorny issues when he spoke with the russian president. they were respectful, but it's pretty clear their conversation was indeed quite tense. now, russian president vladimir putin himself, has warned against, portraying biden as weak as, as weak or incapable. and in his assessment biden is neither of those things was meant if it's just, you know, i'd like to say that the image of prison by which the press in russia and even in america during, has nothing to do with reality. he'd been on a long journey flying across the atlantic that we're talking about just like, you know, even when i fly in through his meal violence a little. and yet he looked alert. i took his face to face in 2 hours or maybe
11:06 am
a little more than that, completely in the loop. he did look into his notes from time to time, but we will do that. and that's the image that's being thrown by the media kind of know you and so full since security. but there's no reason for that whatsoever, because fighting is a professional and you've got to be very careful with him in order not to miss anything. he doesn't miss anything, i can assure you. now it's long been said that u. s. media thrives on controversy and confrontation and it seems right now we're hearing the press lament the fact that they did not get the confrontation they were hoping for. i'll kill him off and i live in new york. thank you. i thought i may put his news conference in geneva. he was bombarded with questions from international journalists. they were particularly interested in the treatment of the russian opposition. did you commit to stopping your crank down against the opposition groups inside russia? dead by election of ownership, electing of on him?
11:07 am
why the, why are young people not allowed to protest in russia? what the but way press court does as i pointed out, they never challenge a u. s. leader from the left. so they'll never ask him about julian assange. they will only ask about navarro ne and a this. bloomberg white house reporter jennifer jacobs. man, both on twitter about she heckling putin and fantasizes about bite and smiling at her, which says everything you need to know about these denial gophers. they're not holding power to account in their own capital. their heckling the designated enemies of america and hoping to get the approval of their president. while the mentality of these journalists is a mentality of the east coast establishment and they operate from a place of american exceptionalism and american innocence, they cannot fathom that the u. s. could possibly be literally paying opposition, figures, managing opposition, figures. and so when these reporters were badgering,
11:08 am
recruiting about nevada, the they were unable to accept his response, which was that we don't want to see something like what you saw on january 6 with a movement of insurrection is. and contrast putin's conference. no russian report is we're even allowed into biden's post stomach briefing. although the us lead felt the heat at one point from an american reporter before letter apologizing for losing his time. the behavior has not changed and after sitting down for several hours denied cyber attack. so how does that help to a constructing frame painted behavior, mr. president, the the
11:09 am
i will have the rest of the i'm not just are that's a look at the outcomes of the summit. so far. biden approved and agreed to hold consultations on the strategic stability and discuss issues of a nuclear arms control. they also talked about the possibility of a prisoner exchange as well. and they agreed to return their respective ambassadors to their official posts. now there was unfortunately no breakthrough on the issue of cyber security though they agreed to start regular consultations on that issue. now as for stumbling blocks, for example, proved none bite and both race concerns about human rights in each other's countries. they also fail to come up with any concrete action plan for ukraine. so ortiz motor guys, the of he was actually at the russian president's media conference after the meeting. however, listen to this report. among the difficult questions that vladimir putin
11:10 am
faced, that which joe barton had the good fortune to escape, what questions about the opposition that we have pointed out, the li, protested, arrested following the events and capitol hill that they faced as much as 25 years in jail. for 5 years in jail, for a political protest, the, the 2 barges said that there's no comparison to the criminal but a leg saying the bowman who was convicted in serving a 2 year sentence for the violation of his early release. so he was convicted by russian court and vladimir putin. he says that, you know, americans are comparing with what happens on capitol hill to the treatment of election yvonne and saying there's nothing in common before the nation. you just, you know, you regarding on non systemic opposition and the citizen you've mentioned this person knew full well that he was violating russian law. and he knew full well that
11:11 am
there was a warrant for his arrest. nevertheless, he came back to russia and he deliberately wanted to be arrested. so he did what he wanted to do. what else can we say hill? one of the things both leaders agreed on is to borrow jo buttons, words. they need to be rules of the world, so that as a rule to how both countries should behave in case they come into this agreement over something that the dispute will outright conflict. have to resolve them as a civilized part. i would say fred, the far too early, but they need a framework of how to behave. and so that to happen, both countries need to be held equally accountable. it wouldn't do a foreign country gets away with doing something and the other doesn't feel bad. the phrase, the, who's the slightest stub on live and he said, how would the united states feel if it was she by the rest of the world as meddling in for an election,
11:12 am
which much of the world. she's the united states as do it. but in this rate that met with us, russia is accused of being predictable by the what. how is russia plan in to james vladimir smart, you know that when you shit out, he's given your name. you said the whiskey leaves the russian foreign policy is unpredictable. well, let me send the park back to you, the u. s. leaving the abm treaty in 2002 with absolutely unpredictable. what are they doing it for that undermine the basis of international stability in the area of strategic security. then withdrew from the i n f treaty in 20. 19, there's nothing stable about that. the open sky treaty withdrawal, there's nothing stable about it and almost nothing left. thank god, in the field of strategic stability. mr. biden has taken a completely adequate decision to prolong the new start treaty for 5 years. if you
11:13 am
take the situation with ukraine with crimea, that's where this all starts, right? what stable about endorsing the coup d'etat? when the ex president, the coven, agreed to all the demands of the opposition, he was basically ready to abandon power, declared new elections in about 3 months. no. the blood filled the crew was needed . that led to known consequences, the southeast of the country than crimea. and you think it's of who i am? predictably, no, i don't think so. how do we do it? at the end of the day, what happened here in geneva? this entire summit was basically a trust building exercise. very few specifics with agreed upon, if any they agreed to talk about many things to work on, many things, but ultimately it is a trust exercise. it is about laying a foundation on which russia the united states can rebuild relations. i wouldn't say build on relations because there aren't much left to speak off there, there in taxes, whether it was bought and says,
11:14 am
we'll find out within the year whether let's see results from the, from all the top from all the agreements and for the criticism that both sides had for each other, but the message is the preliminary. it was successful. ahead of the summit, us politicians and media outlets were urging biden to take a tough line saying that he should show putin, quote, the new sheriff in town. they were apparently left rather underwhelmed by the american leaders performance in geneva, the new berlin, latino. when the country meeting was very constructive. there wasn't any, any strident action taken our views before or many issues or we disagree. i disagree, stated where it was, where he disagreed, he stated,
11:15 am
but i believe both sides have shown a willingness to understand each other, but it was not done in a hyperbolic atmosphere. i have no illusions following the meeting and he's an old nor knew there can be any illusions at all. you can define what time you're going to way or your advisor can tell you where a time that's going to be a message. but it, you can't hide v a grimace. you can't hide an expression on your face. you can try sometime back when, when putin and donald trump mit, that was very interesting. in that donald trump was the unseasoned politician. so he was much more fun to read because at that stage it was early on in his presidency. he wasn't well, not that he became very refined, but he was a lot less refined in that he even became. and you could see a lot more going on there. and the contrast between the 2 pizza, who's, who's been around a long time and very sees. and in this regard, you could see this contrast here. both are very,
11:16 am
very well trained in this regard. biden's been around from before god probably add that you know, and he knows the stuff he might not be doing very well. i think on the international stage that he does know it is harder to read and we've got to look at those clues, a lot, a lot more closely. a team in switzerland talk to one journalist who back in 1985 actually worked at the geneva summit though this time between gorbachev and reagan . explain the significance of that meeting and how things have changed. it was the day off my, i'm sorry, knowing and i 29th anniversary. so i remember when, you know, do expect ations at the time was much bigger than nowadays because it was the 1st meeting in the mid 80 between to the president of the to so pop our, mr. like reagan and mr. go back. and there was a lot of expectation,
11:17 am
including the people with the population who participated to the summit, who was curious to know this is go much serve off. and how is mister, go by chance, because nobody knew about much about you. so today was much lower expectations, but i think not the bad result because this period of the meeting was as good as it was in a defined relation, a continuation of agreeing to speak further in the future. in my opinion, because there are very good spirit between reagan and god by chaffey. now it's historical fact. but as far we can feel about the meeting today, there was also some good spirit present, put in as also recognize it. and he said that it's a constructive meeting,
11:18 am
and president by then don't say the opposite, which is a good we can see from his side was a good flight. so i am part of the day mistake, you know, big break. so that's something for the div has been engaged. the who's this is on the international a region of central italy is now allowing tours to receive the russians splitting it v coverage shot to visit the mark k problems is only the government to follow suit and open up the entire country to such travelers. we heard from a local counselor who actually came up with the initiative most everyone knows the effectiveness of sputnik neighboring san marino was vaccinated with sputnik and
11:19 am
what we should not even allow citizens of san marino to enter the now all region intends to open up to continue welcoming russians. we want to maintain relations with russia. we are friends with russian, and we want to continue business in the tourism sex. russian citizens, tourists, even if they are vaccinated, cannot come to italy. and this is caused tremendous economic loss because italy attracts a lot of russian tourists each year. this comes a week after the european parliament gave final approval to the new digital certificate scheme for covert. it includes data on p. c. r tests antibodies on vaccination, but only with shots approved by the european medicines agency. so father regulate as approved for vaccines for those do not include the russian chinese or indian ones. america counselor joe coma, rossi again says it's become a highly politicized issue. much he sure no they, in my opinion, this decision is based on g, a political reasons and rest the phobia. these are not medical reasons because we
11:20 am
all know sputnik work and therefore it is probably a continuation of the european union's policy towards the russian federation. i have absolutely no fear that we are protecting the interest of ma shake it is he you that too often protect interest that conflict with the interests of european citizens. not only we are european citizens, but we are primarily residents of marcia. and so we serve our interest, especially in such absurd situations like the one we are talking about. are it online for you right now at auto dot com? a petition has been signed to stop amazon boss jeff bezos from returning to us. both out, some people have signed it, claim me the vessel says in fact, lex luther, the villain from the superman series. and now that he's going on a test flight to space in july, they don't want him to come back home to read about that. and many other hot hitting stories right now on our website, our daughter part, some more news from italy now where there's been a dramatic influx of migrants on the tiny island of lam producer. on tuesday alone,
11:21 am
more than 700 people made the crossing from north africa in small boats. the local mayo says the situation is way out of control. it seems to me there have been many minor into rivals on our island. more than 1300 people. while our center has a max capacity of 250, in the next few hours, some 200 migrants should be moved to the quarantine ship. the situation is evolving . if something goes wrong, things might get dangerous, because locals are very unhappy. the tourist season has just started. this island relies on tourism and if the health situation deteriorates, even just among the migrant things could get serious for us. the real problem is that the migrant crisis is not being addressed by the politicians. so many criminals, such as smugglers take advantage of us. they help them cross the mediterranean for money and put their lives in danger. it is a significant spike in newcomers for lumber dues,
11:22 am
where refugees shelters only have capacity for roughly $250.00 people. so far this year, more than $16000.00 migrants have made the crossing to italy, and that is 3 times the total of 2020. the mail of the producer acute has brussels, of basically ignoring the situation. this initial mission, your opinion is doing absolutely nothing about economic migrants. europe talks about refugees, but economic migrants arrival and producer and italy. and for this class of migrants, the use doing absolutely nothing. it's not helping us to tool se should do more, fewer slogans and more action. you should make these proposals in parliament, not in the newspapers. it's easy to talk and do nothing. this is just propaganda. there are no concrete facts solving talks and can't do anything else. speaks in the newspapers. we should do more from a political point of view. algeria has banned the tv network,

of fairness and legally with what opinion said, disagree with a company. you have to remember from is a nation that invaded north west africa that people want to. now it's not, i don't say, well, there's a reality of channels. not enough to say that these channels, well god. and the question is, if a nation people decide china is telling information, would you information? well, we're saying that the jury government for the entire people around the area and this is not true. this is not solution with only 30 percent of the people voting in the last election. the government share of it has gone so much down, but right now they've got less than fewer than 20 percent of the people actually who to for them helping a balance for them. and 2nd history is history. but politics today, something entirely different. all right around the world, free for you. protests in berlin through projectiles at police on said barricades

11:27 am
useful in identifying the shooter and such publication could be harmful in perpetuating stereotypes. we spoke with paul white, who was executive director of the human rights defense center. he says, the paper violated the very basic standards of journalism. most of the other media outlets that reported on it all described the suspect as, as i recall, being a skinny black man with dreadlocks from the also journal stays there. i mean, there are very well respected newspaper, but even the not perpetuating stereotypes seems kind of problematic. that's a critical thing. i don't think the journals should be in the business of withholding information from the public basics of journalism or reporting who what, when, where, and if you know what, why. i think that to the extent that the police rely on cooperation help from the public and solving crimes or, you know, finding stuff specs. i think there withholding information i think definitely slows on slows that down at thanks for joining us for the program for this hour here on
