between the united states and russia i am right it's. let's take a short break right now i will be back with ambassador. talat discussing the camera lens disappeared and whether it's going to resettled any time soon stay with us. perfect there's someone else living inside of me like controlling my body. the by product of that drug because like some of your. because it will we need him into a zombie it's crazy. you know we don't have to do anything it's not our fault the shoes clay z. and all that. piers traumatic. of. us veterans who come back from war often tell the same stories. were going on for the people who were killing civilians they were not interested in the wellbeing of their own soldiers either they're already several generations of them so i just got this memo from the search that says we're going to destroy the government in seven countries in five years americans pay for the wars with them money others. lives if we were willing to go into harm's way and willing to risk being killed for a war surely we can risk some discomfo

so for what happened between the taliban and the u.s. set unfortunately is that going to what's likely cynthia so i think. do afghans believe these was an improvement i mean right talks between the u.s. and the taliban it is said to achieve that unfortunately the afghans voice was not on the table. and there are any and i voiced that as on let me just bring in a muscled from a bit of news of gun department and most of the you probably heard what ehsaan is saying and you've also written a lot about these talks of your voting to inform of the situation in afghanistan as well as a long time does it look likely that the interests of the afghan people really be addressed in any possible deal between the u.s. and the taliban. son was very right to point point out that indy's talks and people who are not represented we have to remember that the current round of talks is between the americans and they're both trying to get something for not full of coniston the taliban continue to refuse to talk to the afghan government which will represent afgh

scenes of the structure of the relationship between the united states. i'm sure you can observe the. recent explosion of sort of standing. right where you can we i mean it has made the last the success. of space and this just an awesome standing and this is a long term very rich would be supported by those of these people in the know and. maybe. who'd be in prison you have to think through media do you think it's a let me think it's going do you think i shared tears of option off the carroll's islands would work for japan a deal where a japanese companies get a special legal status on a russian low one operating on the islands or explore resources jointly with the russians and its formal sovereignty over the islands and matter of principle for japan and the prime minister. in getting to the final solution raise and i suspect that aspect of summer and then it will come to d.c. will. we silence these it is a very delicate issue and besides we don't go seeking but reach there via the resolution on florida. there will be you know it's a new situation in whic

you know you between each other i am sure i am sure that for me just. because i may. say this peace treaty with russia has vitally important for the nation and this would create further trust between the ponderosa. oh it will improve. then of the. northeast we will ultimately pretty somebody i'm so. be able to bring somebody from the primary from overseas. and the parents reese right you know in this. complex. they go see. this stuff and we'll find an appropriate. when did the russian japanese rapper put takei in a position to act as a middleman with one last call in washington i don't see you don't expect something . immediate but in the long run in the long. run will be able to create real relations so for the trust i am strong message we. know this is. more carefree i'm sure the start of the visit. and it's only going to so in the long run well. we may look right well ok so. we'll be able. to roll in all not. because of the united states and russia i am right. let's take a short break right now and we'll be back but i'm back center. discussing the ca

holding the relations between the two countries of the consultations between both come for his. and i don't feel the. work of both conflict is preparing for talks with which to. framework they follow and the first ministers in both countries and their meetings are the dialogue a question to both of you what's the most important topics to be discussed by this mechanism and what is their effect of this election between both come through as also the meeting will be held during this year have you had any agreement about this mechanism in this meeting but tekla days in norway with about the relations between the two countries for show and this is a teacher collation so many mechanisms for which these relations are being dealt with through summit meetings no ministerial meetings or the strategic dialogue or even that two plus two from work and mechanism these all are aimed at supporting the lives between the two countries and discover a new domains of the operations this is not the usual dialogue is big economic military technical. whether in the field because of. our education or dev

has to do with the peace treaty between japan and russia a government. simply. new round of talks and as we start as you look at what was started on the basis in the. name to. finally put our relations on to a whole new level that cheating was meant to be supported by didn't you mon peoples of the two countries i don't this ten and japan doesn't understand it but if you put it really prerequisites the preconditions for you to put forward japan from the first and foremost. you agree to all the outcomes sort of the second world war including the russia's right to the. territories it is in the. ultimatum. that we want which you always. you say that chip pan. should capitulate basically. you cannot understand the logic behind these but you will discuss. these islands belong to you and if we put that matter to rest there will be no problems then we can have peace treaty what will be the talks about that can you clarify this please to move was also to push well i already commented on the sushi immediately after my talks with my counterpart but i can repeat. you know w

that were going to the channel between kissinger. other examples where did not work so well and there were some nasty surprises, they handle the strategic arms limitation and the official negotiating team meeting with the soviets on a regular basis. they were kept in the dark. soviets.enterprising he was aware he was getting information about he brought that in two strategic arms imitation talks. not the best way to run things. other findings, back channel diplomacy appeals to u.s. and soviet leaders. that's one of the reasons why was effective. takes two to check -- two to tangle. secrecy and compartmentalization are ways to avoid -- they can lead to things like paranoia and distrust. there's a flip side to every corner. the back channel can be a safety .hannel i mentioned the cuban missile crisis. i'll get into that in terms of development. as anhannels can be used accelerator and a break. a seemingly link unrelated areas to foreign policy to each other. he wants better trade with us. work on agreement with our military so we can w

a new round of talks between the u.s. envoy to afghanistan and the taliban will be held in the next month. and kabul now to brief the government on negotiations to end the seventeen year war secretary of state to my palm peo says the u.s. government is serious about pursuing peace and bringing america's armed forces home . reports. afghans to learn about the peace talks between the u.s. and the taliban. government leaders are not commenting they have complained about not being involved in the latest round of talks in qatar's capital . as we spoke to the talks in doha. the war while others are skeptical so what has been the we are very hopeful all the afghans are tired of four explosions suicide attack in this country they are hoping for a brighter future and i am very hopeful that these talks will bring a bright future for us and for the future. afghanistan. we afghans don't trust groups affiliated with foreign intelligence agencies the u.s. must talk with the afghan people because we are the ones who suffer this is not p

well at this point we're seeing an escalation of the disagreement between u.s. president donald trump and the mainstream us media this is what trump recently said in a speech to journalists i've ever worked for right you know that is are better than anybody i've ever worked for russia not only did i never work for russia i think it's a disgrace that you even asked that question because it's a whole big fat hole it's just. now this is after a number of us media outlets published some rather extreme anti trump claims that we have one outlet basically speculating that donald trump might be a russian asset and so much of a russian asset that the f.b.i. wouldn't be able to deal with it we've also had newspapers reporting that trump had concealed a translation of his meeting with russian president vladimir putin now besides all of this we are seeing media outlets are reporting on the previously unreported f.b.i. investigation into donald trump and it's also surface that there was a strong disagreement between us president donald trump and james komi and apparently don

it will be the fourth summit between the two leaders.tions are underway to decide where his next summit with kimjong un should be held. well, summits between north korean and chinese leaders used to be a very rare thing indeed. president xi jinping and kimjong—un hadn't met at all during the first five or six yea rs of at all during the first five or six years of kim jong—un‘s time at all during the first five or six years of kimjong—un‘s time in power but suddenly over the past few months, we've had a flurry of diplomatic activity and as you mentioned in the introduction, this is your fourth visit over the past year or is your fourth visit over the past year 01’ so. is your fourth visit over the past year or so. a lot of speculation of course astor whether this is meant to the idea that they may be another us north korean summit in the near future. it was pretty tightlipped in terms of coverage. nothing really beyond the official confirmation that this visit is under way. its kind to last for four days. even thatis kind to last for four

. >> i never said there was no collusion between the campaign or between people in the campaign. >> yes, you have. >> i have not. i said the president of the united states. there is not a single bit of evidence that the president of the united states committed the only crime you could commit here, conspired with the russians to hack the dnc. >> so giuliani claims he never said the campaign didn't collude with russians. a couple problems though. one, his client has said otherwise repeatedly. >> there was no collusion between the trump campaign and the russian people. there was no collusion whatsoever. there never has been. the last thing i want is help from russia on a campaign. there has been no collusion between the trump campaign and russians. >> second problem, giuliani himself has unambiguously denied the top campaign officials colluded. >> is it still the position of you and your client that there was no collusion with the russians whatsoever on behalf of the trump campaign? >> correct. when i say the trump campaign, i mean the upper levels of the trump campaign. i have no reason t

you know you between each other i am sure i am sure that firm just. because i may. say this peace treaty with russia has vitally important for the nation and this would create further trust between the ponderosa. oh. who. then of the best in the. northeast we will ultimately pretty somebody i'm saw. be able to bring somebody from the primary from overseas. and. details reese right you know in this. complex. they go see. this stuff and we find on the road before. why didn't the russian japanese rapprochement put takei in a position to act as a middleman with one last call in washington i don't see you don't expect something most of these started. immediately but in the long run in the long run if the. rest will be able to create real relations so for trust each other i am sure the message. to the americans know this is this i suspect. you will listen more carefully i am sure the start of music will become more credit for me. so in the long run. we may not be the right location. will be able to. useful role in all not. because of the united states and r

we had conversations about very contentions historical issues between japan and korea. beee that it is going to like a very long, strenuous journey in terms of dealing with historical memories between all three countries, but i do have conferencesdent such as these that we are willing to have conversations in a very subtle way, and to understand each other's perspective, and to share what is happening and find a way to get past these problems. i am very hopeful. mr. yeo: i think we are over time now, so very briefly? mr. sawamura: just briefly on the historical issues, i think of the role of traditional media is so important in terms of how to think about history. there are lots of new and since and context -- nuances and context. set up a history thatin 2015 after anniversary of the end of world war ii. we were trying to show the history to the audiences. also, the other question about hardifference between power and soft power -- it is an interesting phenomenon, in japan. we already have the manga, ani me, and with japanese sake. .he same thing happen in france people

maybe less solid case on all these e-mails between him and corsi, between the summer and fall of 2016t fall into the intelligence. >> democrats, they have no confidence in the acting attorney general. do you think they have more confidence in bill barr, who is about to be confirmed in the coming days before the senate to become the attorney general? >> i don't flknow if anybody wod admit this. but i think they do have more confidence. whether it's along party lines or mostly republicans with the sprinkling of democrats or not, i think they do. because of the history that he has, never mind the memo he wrote, but just the long history he has of never mind being attorney general but even in and around that following the rule of law. i think they do have confidence in him. >> was it appropriate for whitaker to say he has been briefed by t eed about the muel? >> it was an off the cuff remark. it goes against the policy about the fbi and doj policy of not commenting oni ongoing investigations. the acting attorney general says something. everybody says, well, is he telling truth? did he mea

well there's just been a real escalation of heated words between us president donald trump and the media in a recent speech donald trump blasted the media for their recent reports alleging russia collusion and such this is the us president talking about the press i never worked for russia and you know that answer better than anybody i never worked for russia not only did i never work for russia i think it's a disgrace that you even asked that question because it's a whole big fat home exists now there's been an avalanche of anti trump claims in the press over the past few days that we've seen allegations that trump was possibly a an agent of the kremlin and so much of a kremlin agent of the f.b.i. couldn't even deal with him we've seen allegations that trump has concealed the record of his meeting with russian president vladimir putin and prevented that record from being out there we've seen a guy do his impeachment a kind of a roadmap for removing him from office that's been published in addition to all of that we have seen the revelation of a previously unreported f.b.i. investigation

american trade delegation is trying to find a solution to the ongoing trade war being waged currently between washington and beijing here's where we're talking about the peristyle islands which is claimed by china but also by vietnam and the taiwan a longstanding u.s. ally a spokeswoman for the u.s. pacific fleet says the move wasn't about making a political statement however china's reacted with fury calling it a provocation and stressing it was in violation of international law last month the world's two largest economies agreed a ninety day truce in their trade war which so far has seen more losers than winners and now explains well the next round of the us china trade battle and both sides appear to be quite enthusiastic just had a very good call were president xi of china deal is moving along very well if made it will be very comprehensive covering all subjects areas and points of dispute big progress being made. u.s. trade negotiators will optimistically and constructively communicate with the chinese delegation on the important agreements achieved by the two leaders during the meeting

the difference between the dems is like this, the difference between the dems and the republicans is like that, republicans are still attempting to repeal the affordable care act, either by vote or administration sabotage. democrats want to preserve the affordable care act. we all voted to protect it, democrats want to dramatically expand healthcare coverage. are there different ideas who are to you to do it, sure there are, but i think the differences between dems are not that great. i would say the same thing, mike, about the campaign between dems as i would say about our committee. get the ideas on the table, let's be the deliberative body that the senate is supposed to be. republican ideas, too, we're going to need them all on the table and we will need the stakeholders, insurers, hospitals, docs, the american cancer society, patients, we are going to need everybody looking at the big proposals and saying, well, with he like this and we don't like that and then we can find a path forward to the next big step forward that will increase options, reduce costs and cover more people.

renewal also a fury up not only of the franco german friendship because the value of this friendship between france and germany is also a friendship because other europeans you allow other europeans to share in this friendship without franco german friendship we will not be able to fulfill our mission and to rebuild the mission that history has given us namely to keep europe together in peace and freedom bring your object either in peace and freedom respecting all of the different colors all of the different sensitivities of europe all of the different realities of europe and pushing it in the same direction. in the franco german history quite often there have been well. conflicts this irritation. was one of the neighbors of the french and the german particularly the smaller ones suffer it a lot. but the prospect that this will never happen again gives the necessary karma. and rest from the continent for it to flourish and so on franco german french it is the guarantor of the peaceful future of europe and when the french and the germans share this friendship as they do with that. as long liv

in the intervening years between incursion into cambodia and laos between 1970 and 1971, congress has now prohibited the use of american ground combat troops outside of south vietnamese borders. since for the first time 1965, the south vietnamese army is going to be fighting without the direct assistance of u.s. combat units. operation is called lamps on 719 and it kicks off on the eighth of february, 1971. as kissinger recalls, in one of my favorite quotations of the war, the operation conceived in ambivalence and assailed by skepticism proceeded in confusion. the north vietnamese army suffered high casualties, so to the south amy's army. in fact, the operation revealed several shortcomings with the south amy's armed forces. brigadier general is once dispatched that once again dispatched to saigon. he reports back in harsh terms. listen to his report. was cleart there, it the operation was not receiving andkind of leadership management from the american force structure that it should have." kissinger's top military aid is reporting back that general abrams is failing in terms of lead

if you thought relations between the media really couldn't get much worse well the president's now accuse some of them of going completely mad follows outlets rounding on the president over his alleged collusion with russia even produced an impeachment guide. the fake news gets crazier and more dishonest every single day amazing to watch as certain people covering me and the tremendous success of this administration have truly gone mad the fake reporting creates anger and disunity take two weeks off and come back rested cio. comes meetings with putin on the sidelines of the g twenty gathering along with the health summit they also came into the spotlight and now the president's interpreters who were one of the meetings they could reportedly be made to testify before congress in the morgan has details. well there's just been a real escalation of heated words between us president donald trump and the media in a recent speech donald trump blasted the media for their recent reports alleging russia collusion and such this is the us president talking about the press i never worked for russia an

the one that worked was between a mutual ally between the u.s. and china, pakistan led by a dictator. active inhannel went march-april of 1971, there was a message saying, we had messages from the u.s. from different sources. this is the first time a toposal has come from a head a head. nixon the one head, sending it through pakistan to mao zedong. back channels are useful. uncover whenmazing announcedkissinger kissinger had visited china and they agreed to set up a summit in 1972 and the u.s. was pursuing a normalization of relations with china. that is a use of back channels. is more current, although less relevant. a conference of plan of action, the iran deal. president trump pulled the u.s. out of it. relevant. but it is a recent example. the u.s. and itron do not have didomenico rations. they have not had them -- the u.s. and iran have not had diplomatic relations. how can you have an agreement if there is not a o-matic agreement in place? -- a diplomatic agreement in place? this was set up by a prime minister and the foreign minister who w

relations between canada and the u.s. appear to be cooling the canadian envoy to washington said that his country's citizens are paying the price for the u.s. planning an extradition request for an executive from the chinese electronics while way we don't like that it is our citizens who are being punished the americans are the one seeking to have the full force of american law brought against men one joe and yet we are the ones who are paying the price while ways chief financial officer was detained in december in vancouver at the request of washington or they're released on bail she is accused of violating u.s. sanctions against iran. the arrest caused a diplomatic rift between canada and china with beijing detaining two canadian citizens and recently sentencing a third to death for drug smuggling in china both canada and the u.s. to correct their mistakes and free messmate. now much anyone with normal judgment can see that canada has made a serious mistake on this issue from the very beginning we urge the canadian side

varying estimates put the cost of the war between nine hundred thirty two billion us dollars and two trillion dollars more than thirty eight thousand civilians have been killed there are other statistics as well they mostly speak of death but is the u.s. close to ending all that at least for itself in talks with the taliban it appears a so-called agreement in principle has been reached between both sides they. will not be used as a platform for international terrorism and a commitment that u.s. forces will pull out of the country but it's the afghans that are missing at the talks table the taliban refuses to speak to them still the president of afghanistan made his position. our commitment is to provide peace and to prevent any possible disaster but there are values that are not disputable such as national unity national sovereignty territorial integrity and a strong central government yet. the. i call on the taliban not to be a part of the evil plans of foreigners. to accept the demands of afghans. and to stop the talks seriously with the afghan government and afghanistan so will th

so far has not been reached trade relations between turkey and pakistan have gained for mentum in recent years with agreements reached on the weapon sales worth billions of dollars this meeting between add-on and hung comes just weeks after pakistan handed management of schools associated with the turkish businessman that's a look given to turkey's mari foundation tricky because this killer who's been in the united states since one thousand nine hundred ninety off a massive mining it failed coup attempt in two thousand and sixteen and his supporters of attempting to overthrow or john's government failed to. we've expressed our satisfaction with the decision of the supreme court of pakistan regarding the terrorist organization the fact that the supreme court of pakistan has declared facto a terrorist organization and the transfer of girl in those schools to the armory foundation are welcome barriers trick you want school and extradited from the us i request that has so far been turned down straining relations between washington and ancora but us president donald trump has promised to stud

the one that did work was between a mutual ally between the u.s. and communist china, dictator.led by a inn this channel went active --ch and april of 1970 81, have had a message, we messages from different sources from the united states in the past but this is the first time a proposal has come from ahead, to a head, through a head. nixon sending it through the dictator to mao zedong. back channels were useful. uncover, ifamazing you want to call it that, when andn announced to the world kissinger announced in 1971 the kissinger had visited china and they agreed to set up a summit meeting for the coming year, and in february 1972, the united states was pursuing a normalization of relations with communist china. that is one use of back channels. here is another one. this is more current although less relevant. the comprehensive plan of action, the iran deal. you have heard about the iran deal at president trump pulled the u.s. out of it in the last year. but it is aant, recent example. the united states and iran don't relations.atic they haven't ha

there is extensive trade between japan and south korea. a lessern and to degree, south korea, have been engaged in is the phenomenon of security networking that we have seen take off for the last five years in the region, where countries are doing more joint exercises in military exchanges and sharing information and things like that with none other countries ranging from india to philippines, the and interested in the phenomenon, the south is much more focused on security in the peninsula. and frankly, south korea needs -- if therey ever was a military operation on the peninsula, as it during the korean war. u.s. troops would come from bases there are logistics designated in a japan for military use on the peninsula. so there is a lot of -- whether it is the values, the threat, interest,egic there is a lot of underlying logic for trilateral cooperation among the three. and the question is, why don't we see more of it if that logic is so strong? if you focus on this for even five minutes, you know some of the obstacles. there are so-called

and what also continued are the negotiations between the u.s. and china now the u.s. says china has promised to buy a substantial amount of american goods it follows two days of trade talks between the two nations investors are celebrating the news as they hope for signs of a deal to prevent further tariffs the u.s. statement mentioned only that the chinese were set to buy more from the agricultural energy and manufacturing sectors it's unclear if there's been any agreement on intellectual property that. this of course raises a lot of questions we're going to discuss these talks with our financial correspondent on wall street possibly out of joining us now good evening to you jose luis now we've seen the reaction in the markets but is this really is such a big deal what do investors really make of this. it seems that the u.s. and china have some scope for compromise and that's why investors are increasingly all say that the current through the negotiations will continue beyond march with no fodder targets collation these will be making sense in society increasing thei

marijuana does cross between ports of entry. migrant smugglers focus between ports of entry as well. so different smuggling routes. we have different routes. we were just there for the inauguration. it's a chance to restart our bilateral agenda on organized crime, but also look at strategic options for managing migration flows in different ways. we have heard mexico is going through a moment where interests are converging with ours in different ways were true before. mexico was no longer a sender of unauthorized migrants. most that come come through legal paths. as of november, we heard this yesterday from the commissioner, as of november there were more guatemalaens. apprehended than mexicans. the number of mexicans keeps going down. mexico is a receiving country for mite grants. and increasing a transit country. because of that, they begin to have similar questions that they are asking about the migration system. not the same. we shouldn't confuse it by thinking they want to do the same things we do, but beginning to have simi

diplomatic ties between. venezuela and the united states from what we understand the venezuelan embassy in the united states in washington d.c. has closed and at this point the usa is bringing back some of its diplomats from venezuela was an opposition figure he's part of the national assembly and in front of a crowd of his supporters he recently took an oath and declared himself to be the interim president of venezuela saying that nicolas been during the elected president who was just recently re inaugurated that he is not legitimate now he's gotten support from brazil argentina and chile and all of them basically following the lead of u.s. president donald trump trump declared that wand wedo was indeed the interim president of venezuela even though no election took place in order to get him that title now more recently in the aftermath of trump's recognition of wedo we heard some rather fiery words from u.s. secretary of state mike pompei oh the time for debate is done. the regime former president nicolas m
