of us claims the actions of the sounded coalition in yemen are justified as riyadh's tried to limits the number of civilian casualties in its campaign against the rebel. people are on. the for what it's worth i've been a very long time hillary supporter it was a shock to to all of us the results of your work. and the leaked video google's top executives reveal their true thoughts on donald trump's twenty sixteen election win raising questions over political bias. a warm welcome and a very good morning to you you're watching r.t. international with me nikki arran. murderers having a holiday from hell and makes the case against them even stronger well that's just a taste of the reaction is greeted the interview to r.t. of the two russians accused of carrying out the nerve agent poisoning in the u.k. city of souls bree the pair came forward and spoke to r.t.s. editor in chief margarita simonyan early on thursday but it's only intensified the media's finger pointing at russia. look the russians say this is all been made up by the british but you know this alibi which is very flimsy indee

so that's where we are at this point with fifteen minutes to go how is everyone else in washington riyadh. well mike pence perhaps put their public in perspective very clearly when he was speaking to a conference of so-called values voters in the last couple of hours they are right wing conservatives people who would be right behind the idea of brett kavanaugh being on the supreme court and he says he has no doubt that the republicans on the committee are going to get this job done and brett kavanaugh will be confirmed as the next justice of the supreme court but honestly the way some democrats have conducted themselves during this process is a disgrace the president are confident that senate republicans will manage this confirmation properly with the ut most respect for all concerned and i believe the judge brett kavanaugh will soon be justice brett kavanaugh and take his seat. of the united states. allen why the and forgive my phrasing here why the obsession with brett kavanaugh out there are on show plenty of other conservative nominee or potential nominees out there who could possibly

state department has praised the saudi arabia's actions to reduce violence in yemen saying riyadh is doing what it can to minimize civilian casualties that. we see them taking steps is it perfect no absolutely not do we see them doing what they can to mitigate civilian casualties absolutely we deal those comments came after the us secretary of state certified to congress and the save led coalition is undertaking demonstrable actions and that certification allows washington to continue providing aid to riyadh in its war against rebels and al-qaeda terrorists in yemen the saudi led bombing campaign against the rebels which they deemed to be terrorist started back in twenty fifteen with substantial support from the us government militant groups like al qaida which washington has been fighting against for nearly two decades have taken advantage of the of the crisis capturing aries in the south of yemen r.t. as you go down of looks into how the us approach in fighting al qaeda does differ depending on the region or the motive. al qaeda a whole generation of americans grew up with these tw

do from muscat in oman he intends to travel to sana'a the rebel capital and then on from there to riyadh in saudi arabia to try to get some level of cooperation that calming the fighting down he has warned over and over again that the last thing anyone needs right now is for yemen to see the supply line cut between exactly what i've been talking about the supply line cut from between the data and sana'a the capital because it isn't just a supply line for the military it's an absolute lifeline for humanitarian supplies food medicine supplies every type of shelter you could need in this crippling some that people face on the bombardment from above from the u.n. a saudi led coalition that is so forceful in its nature really a critical situation i'm reporting on once again laura and i understand and support him and thanks sanjay. flights have been diverted from the only functioning airport in libya's capital tripoli after a rocket attack the no immediate reports of casualties attack comes less than a week after the u.n. brokered a fragile truce amongst rival groups fighting for control of tr

since the riyadh summit back in may two thousand and seventeen where the whole alliance you know was forged between the trump administration saudi arabia u.a.e. and to a large extent israel the center of this alliance was iran and how to counter iran and how to put an end to the iranians influence an expression of this here in the region so if you are full of the u.s. policy from that moment until now with that it's the cancellation of the nuclear deal with that. it is the. harsh sanctions that were imposed recently on iran so this one just one additional step in that overall policy in order to increase the pressure on iran to single out iran is that because it's keep in mind on the issue of iran here because here we're talking about two different definitions with that is terrorism as ice a lot of guy there on or something was by but the united states what it's for fit into here is in terms of. relationship support. as well or. as well ok hamad. i mean to some of the reports particularly comes to iran it talks about. two things about the new global reach of iran basically iran as a d

what's russia's role in all of this i mean over the past few years relationship between moscow and riyadh have gone grown closer days talk at maybe these two countries together trying to fill the gap that will be left because of the iran sanctions. well russia's role is very specific basically when the russia agreed to decrease production it was against the benchmark of tolbert when to sixty and when the rest of the oil production peaked for some domestic reason and after that it fell down to their regular level. again and i saluted naturally the russian minister over there just said it was carrying out the promise it gave to opec basically russian oil companies are producing at the maximum of their capacity and they're out prepared to increase production to accommodate to the wishes of saudi arabia or president romp or anyone else in the essentially next year or maybe a year from no rational production is going to start to decline and it has already peaked the decline will be caused by the deterioration over oil reserves which the majority of oil which remains is still in russia the seve

and in riyadh and therefore what we're seeing now is that the u.n. special envoy is now in the region to try to coax all the parties so that these talks can take place and the united states is clearly using that as leverage at the same time the relationship between the united states and its partners and to go for a strategic even though there are significant differences with deadly toll that the war has taken on civilians across the country and and the united states now is signaling that this will no longer be tolerated and i think this message has gotten across to up with the riyadh ok thank you for sharing your views with us a good know about middle east analyst joining us there from washington thank you for your time and the war in yemen and the struggle for survival in pictures on our website more than ten thousand people have been killed in three years of conflict you've seen these photos civilians are struggling to go to cope with the devastating consequences of this three year conflict this is at al jazeera dot com writing a putin has watched

launched from yemen inside of saudi arabia, this is especially when one lands right there in the riyadh airport, this is truly a threat to international peace and security. as i said earlier, imagine if one of those missiles had been aimed at dulles or heathrow. this is very dangerous. very dangerous work they're doing. the proliferation of their missiles, they're essentially trying to rememblebanonize the east. they have the same aspirations in iraq and syria and yemen where they're using them as cut out proxies. iran is very good in the gray zone, and plausible deniability for the missile attractions. we don't make an distinction between the iranian government and the iranian shia militia are around the middle east. with respect to our work with the allies, i'm in regular touch not only with our european partners but met a couple of days ago with the moroccan foreign minister, in regular conversations with countries around the world who are increasingly worried about missile proliferation threat. i think nations are increasingly uncomfortable limiting the scope of the discussion on ir

a 2015 strike close to the international airport in riyadh indicates it was of irani origin. a code that matches the irani company is written on the missile. as u.n. ambassador nikki haley said in response to the attack, imagine if this missile had been launched at dulles airport or jfk or the airports in paris, london or berlin. this is the kind of activity that iran is supporting, and it is continuing to support every day. so what is the united states and its allies doing to address it? for starters, we ended the practice of simply admiring the problem. secretary pompeo launched a multi-pronged pressure campaign that reflects the president's goal of protecting the american people and our allies from this o outlaw regime. first, we are using the fullscope of our sanctions authorities to inflict real cost on iran's ballistic missile program. in march 2017 and april 2018, the u.s. imposed sanctions against a total of 19 foreign entities for transferring equipment to iran's missile program. in july 2017, we designated 18 entities and individuals under executive order 1382 for s

a dramatic impact his foreign minister and defense minister had here in washington after the may riyadh summit when things went so terribly terribly wrong given that basis it's still very much a political decision how washington addresses the ongoing saudi led blockade of author but i think this report gives at least a substantive basis for those in washington to try to continue efforts to bring to bring this more to appeal close rather than just to take the side of the saudis there as was the initial inclination ibrahim ultimately do you think that this is going to be the americans to put in all that political leverage in the region to the apostles you know what you do to set aside your differences because your help is crucial of this promote or do you think it's too late at this this particular moment well first let me agree again with my colleague from washington and i think . from what we've seen in this report i mean this is because of the in my view a breakthrough that the united states is taking such a fit in position a very very clearly stated that cut the husband such and such

depend on intelligence that is than you know from the ground or from command and control center in riyadh to the pilot and then it's all electronic but there are other targets that are targets of opportunity where the violence sees something and may or may not see permission before bombing in this case the bus seemed to be in the clear there was nothing else around that. it could have been mistaken for. so i'm afraid that. you know this sort of thing has happened so many times before and for them to admit a mistake now seems a bit fishy there wasn't even a genuine apology to the families of the victims and to the yemeni people. so i'm afraid it's politically motivated if they incline. a scapegoat or two and sated that person made a mistake maybe they could be demoted they could be sacked from the military something like that. but you know beyond admitting to an error this time and beyond punishing one or two people who were probably just following orders or following standard operating procedures what the arab coalition needs to do is to apologize for three years of pounding the hell out

charges that qatar denies and says relations when the result of those doha makes the changes that riyadh required. has more from new york. the announcement of this started for mr adie dashed hopes for any political way out of the crisis as far as the g.c.c. crisis is concerned he said that it's. qatar's duty to try to sort out its own problems he was saying basically that qatar has a financing extremism that qatar should stop interfering into the internal affairs of different countries accusation which were strongly dismissed by qatar as politically motivated and fabrications and the timing of the statement comes at a crucial moment because on friday u.s. secretary of state my pump a zero is going to meet with just to see ministers of foreign affairs along with the mess as a foreign affairs of jordan.

undertaking demonstrably actions that certificate allows washington to continue providing aid to riyadh and its war against rebels and al-qaeda terrorists in yemen the saudi led bombing campaign against toothy rebels which they deemed terrorists started back in twenty fifteen with substantial support from the us government militant groups like al qaida which washington has been fighting against for nearly two decades has to have taken advantage of the crisis capturing areas in the south of yemen was easy enough now looks into how the u.s. approach in fighting al qaeda differs depending on the region or the motive. al qaeda a whole generation of americans grew up with these two words engraved in their minds since preschool years two words that have seen hundreds of thousands of u.s. troops fanned out all over the globe with an uncompromising objective to defeat terror. for the past few years one battleground yemen some four thousand troops in the country even now and that's enough for the u.s. to turn a blind eye to schools hospitals and homes flattened by saudi bombs the administration'

probably thursday to go there if it's possible and then on from there to riyadh but the timing of this is really difficult for him he had said that he had tried to get to the table he seemed sympathetic in some parts of his announcement last saturday towards who it is in terms of what the difficulties were but no one knows really what the true motivations of either side is in terms of gains or losses it would seem no that the coalition is determined to make a major leap forward as they see it in this conflict and a leap backwards for the human beings involved meanwhile the spanish government has changed its mind and is allowing a shipment of bombs to saudi arabia after all government leaders announced last week that canceled is in the delivery of four hundred laser guided weapons ons control activists say they're disappointed by the u. turn and a government rethink of the dia creators concerned about spanish jobs and the future of and more lucrative contract to supply washington. now the two russians wanted for the attempted murder of a former russian spy have appeared on television pr
