meeting is some sort of a dialogue on the an ounce to american pullout from the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty and i think the kremlin also treats that as a given the rather than an equal shading tactic on the part of trump if the russians are not going to try to persuade americans to stay in what is said that russia is after while it's clear that americans would like to withdraw actually like they have claimed that they have all of it was wrong but it's premised to conceive of them being. a very direct them clear line that they want to do it as. a multiple that it's all this technology is very focused on trying out of a member of even though there was a first argument you have this that i should violation claim. it is of course unfortunate development but it wouldn't believe necessarily as a first step to the going to ration of tensions in european speaking about you or more specifically i think moscow was quite relieved to see both the german and their. french concerns expressed over this announced pull out does that mean though that. the deployment of ground launched missiles in europe is o

trump might not need much convincing, last month he threatened to pull out of the intermediate range nuclear forces treaty after charging russia violated the agreement. >> we are not going to let them violate a nuclear agreement and go out and do weapons and we are not allowed to. we are the ones who stayed in the agreement and honor the agreement that russia has not honored the agreement so we will terminate the agreement and pull out. >> that threat to pull out was almost certainly going to come up at the now canceled meeting with vladimir putin. a russian diplomatic source says these two world leaders need to meet, it is important but as of now it is not going to happen at least not right now. >> they are signaling they are trying to get it together but a lot of people praising the president to make this decision after all the criticism. thank you. the migrant caravan, some members openly admitting they will help them get over the border illegally if the president won't let the men and the trump administration sends reinforcement to the border as criticism continues. >> criticize how they behave on the

the intermediate-range nuclear forces treaty is a treaty of several decades long now that prohibits either russia or the united states from developing or deploying a missile that has a range between 500 and 5,500 kilometers. now, this is a treaty that only binds russia and the united states. it doesn't bind china, for example, which does possess these weapons. so both russia and the united states would be at a disadvantage in a conflict with china, for example. we're simply asking that the president consider whether or not russia abides by the treaties that it signs, and in that regard whether it has violated the i.n.f. treaty. well, it's a question that's already been answered. the united states government has already confirmed and others have as well that russia has been in violation of the i.n.f. treaty at least since the year 2008. the on-site inspections regime of the i.n.f. treaty terminated in 2001 so it hasn't been particularly easy to verify this. but the state department's 2014 annual compliance report found that russia was in violation of the i.n.f. treaty, the first thyme that
