Transcripts For RT In Question 20240712

And israel put pressure to extend irans weapons embargo all right its time to secure news i q. Latvia a member of the e. U. And among the poorest 5 of that union made a dramatic move to ban our t. V. And the various languages it broadcast under from their airwaves the n. National Electronic Mass Media Council of latvia claims that r t was led by a person being sanctioned by the union one mr Dimitri Kissel of and now just moments ago that any p. L. P. Just realized their mistake as r. T. Is headed by a woman named Margarita Simonyan and she issued this statement about the mix up she said quote. Latvian intelligence believes that r. T. D. Is headed by Dimitri Castle yet of american intelligence believes that a program i hosted in 2011 on a local russian channel influenced the u. S. Election for addition teligent believes the script polls were poisoned by and petro so thats good news she went on to say that with such Intelligence Services russia has little to worry about so here to weigh in on the european front former u. K. M. P. George galloway so george i did not originally intend for this to be a comical segment between us but as life would have it it has become a comedy its a farce this dimitry can still have guy whom they claimed was effectively my boss and mind you i have worked with our party for over 6 years now i had never heard of this guy before today i had to google him so i guess my question to you is george why did it be any p. L. P. Do the same thing theyd have discovered that he runs another Russian Media outlet. Well in the words of oscar wilde youd have to have a heart of stone not to laugh a little a lot via flexing its muscles trying to lead the European Union on our merry down soft censorship and media repression has dropped the stone on its own feet it is quite well known not actually in media circles the r. T. Is run by a woman not just a woman but a young woman whos given birth several times whilst running this Massive Media empire one of the hottest Media Properties in the whole world but lot didnt appear to know that like you i had to google this individual he runs apparently an entirely separate Russian Television Network Nothing whatsoever to do with us and yet this was printed in aid of the dining not just the english language not just the russian language all the other languages are of expounder shah and so on im not sure how many of those were being watched in a lot the annuity but this was clearly an attempt to get a ball rolling d and other more significant european now and countries might follow it a lot lot for your viewers who dont know a lot is it is as you said one of the poorest tiniest members of the European Union its hard to believe that it came up with this entirely on its own bat with george and that the sad or perhaps scary thing here georges is that perhaps this wasnt a mistake at all i mean our team is obviously as you mentioned a very successful and well received network all around the world could there have been a chance that they attempted to play this as a. Folk pov but in reality they were hoping to get other states to join in on this ban on r t using the mix up as sort of a guy. Well it may be the following my thesis often expressed our countries are run by james barnes but by austin powers by mr beams they may have been counting on the fact that nobody would notice this rather gigantic elephant in the corner of the room but they have named the wrong guy. I think it will now be a laughingstock. How they really are i just because of the worst the European Union the European Union claims to be the. Norm free speech and Free Expression and democracy and all of that. Just goes to show thats all lipstick when the d when the lipsticks rubbed off its a rather play in our face while George Romney does this speak to the broader attempts than by by countries all across the west to effectively quassia alternative Media Outlets who do not tell the narratives of each respective nation that they seem to compel. Yes its not just that we are doing very well its the amongst their own people their own mosques media is doing very poorly here in britain people under the age of 30 maybe even 35 getting on for it virtually enough for war any Television News they get all of the news from other alternative platforms and a huge proportion certainly in britain adult of its different in the United States dont believe the news our own broadcasters are pumping out their long ago decided. After the iraq war actually. The news was not dependable in western countries and thus the market for r. T. And others are coming on stream chinese and other broadcasters are getting a bigger and bigger audience opponents dont know which way to turn they dont know whether to slander us. On limbaugh mouth piece of the president. Or to one of the above a huge number growing every day of their own people are seeking out r t for an alternative point of view. Theyre stuck between these 2 stools and then be able place to be all right well leave it right there is the last word George Galloway always appreciate your insight thank you. And china has approved a contentious National Security law for hong kong setting the stage for a big changes on the semi autonomous territory that move comes on the 23rd anniversary of hong kong return to Mainland China from british rule and while the Chinese Government insists the legislation is needed to deal with foreign interference and separatists other say its a direct attack on the people of hong kong and the u. S. Being one of those biggest critics arties alex mileage has that story as criticism pours in from half the world away what the government of china is doing in hong kong is unacceptable they are taking away the rights of the people in Hong Kong China is not veering from its path as the highest organ of state power in china the National Peoples congress has to constitutional and the duty to enact National Security legislation for the hong kong as they are. Asked year protests have played hong kong to demonstrations initially started after hong kongs government introduced a bill that would have allowed the extradition of criminal suspects in fugitives to be low in china. Within a week the government gave in to the protesters appeals and the bill was cost but the demonstrations continued with new demands put on the table after a year of unruliness massive protests and episodes of violence china has had enough during disparate groups advocating hong kong independence and selfdetermination incite a protest its very often radicalized young people to desecrate and burn the National Flag vandalized electional emblem and storm the central Governments Office in hong kong no Central Government could turn a blind eye to such straits to suffer and to National Security as well as christophes of the ship of state policy while protests against. Ended support of the new law continue in hong kong. Some would say foreign powers such as the United States are continuing to meddle the us federal government has begun to eliminate Hong Kong Special status under u. S. Law into stopping defense exports to the region as well as restricting Technology Access meanwhile citing foreign interference china has announced that it will impose visa restrictions on americans who have behaved agree just li on Hong Kong Related issues. China is now a scared kid on the u. S. Attempt of blocking the legislation of the security law for hong kong by imposing sanctions will never succeed in response to the wrong behaviors of the u. S. Side china will take necessary countermeasures in order to defend its own National Interest while many of the specifics of the new law are still on known provisions a clue that it will supersede existing hong kong legislation and that chinas top Parliamentary Committee will hold interpretation powers chinas insisting that the move will not undermine hong kongs high level of autonomy while increasing National Security a priority most nations share. All those countries which have pointed the finger is a china have their own National Security legislation in place we could think of no valid reason why china should be inhibited from acting National Security legislation to protect every corner of this territory and all of its nationals. This coming on the eve of the 23rd anniversary of hong kong to return to china from british rule for to look smiling. And irans foreign minister addressed the United Nations Security Council today to respond to a report which claims the country failed to uphold its end of the nuclear deal now this comes as both the u. S. And israel are calling for the current arms embargo to be extended indefinitely arties Rachel Blevins has been following the story shes joining us with more details now so rachel what was said at todays hearing well this hearing was in response to a recent report from the u. N. Secretary general which claimed they now have proof that iran has violated the 2013 nuclear deal now if you remember back in september 29000 there was an attack on saudi arabia state Oil Facilities at that time both the United States and saudi arabia immediately came out and placed the blame on iran iran spoke out and said that it had no involvement whatsoever now in this recent report it claims that they have found evidence that the cruise missiles that were used were of iranian origin now is really interesting to watch is hearing play out because a number of representatives who spoke pointed out the fact that they are acting expecting or iran to follow all of the provisions of this nuclear deal however it is become increasingly hard because at the same time the u. S. Has withdrawn from the deal and it is also increasing sanctions against iran as it goes along so that how has iran responded well iran and mediately deny the report calling it false and inaccurate and the testimony from irans foreign minister was a really big part of his hearing and he took to twitter ahead of that hearing where he said specifically quote the u. S. Isnt merely violating. The j c a p o a n bowling others to do so too and has also the dishonor of being the 1st in un history to punish a law abiding countries for not violating a Security Council resolution then during the hearing he said the following the United States along with accomplices in the war crimes in yemen have gone. Into a now infamous campaign of intimidation against International Institutions most recently. Onset of the. Forged documents to produce ought to be on professional report. So he is arguing that the focus continues to be on what iran has done or what it may do to violate this deal however hes saying the un did nothing against washington when it withdrew from the deal and violated it and it also did nothing to the u. S. For its participation in the war in yemen which has created the largest humanitarian crisis in the world and so whats the deal now on the arms embargo well the current u. N. Arms embargo against iran which is supposed to keep the country from buying things like fighter jets tanks warships and other weapons is set to expire in october now secretary of state mike pompei a was also present at this hearing and he called on the u. N. To do Everything Possible to continue that arms embargo take a listen to what he had to say. We have purchased russian fighter jets destroyed 3000 kilometer radius go to cities like riyadh. Rome and warsaw iterative process. Run will be free to upgrade expand its fleet of submarines to further threaten International Shipping and freedom of navigation the strait of hormuz go from your review. Now we also saw a meeting carried out today in jerusalem between the u. S. Envoy to iran and israeli officials and during that meeting the Prime Minister for israel spoke out and he encouraged the u. S. To turn to what he called snap back sanctions which essentially means that the u. S. Would increase sanctions on iran not based on what theyre doing right now but based on what they think that iran may do in the future and its been interesting to watch here because in the past the u. S. Has used sanctions against iran as a way to take those sanctions and those measures away so that they could get around to agree to certain deals or even to an extended arms embargo but now the Trump Administration doesnt appear to be doing anything like that or to be backing off anytime soon.

Welcome to my world to come along for the ride. Its election day at least in kentucky new york and colorado and democrats are hoping that their growing enthusiasm is Strong Enough to replace the leader of the United States later this year but is the loss by a candidate indorsed by a President Trump in North Carolina to a 24 year old of a sign that the president is not as popular as he used to be this plus an update to a story we brought you yesterday regarding a company who analyzed cell phone data of protesters and how they have used that same information in the past to possibly influence the 2016 elections so lots to unpack in this political suitcase lets bring in our friend hughes host of news use hughes our its got a good to see you lets start with the primaries today why could the results of each of these primaries today have an impact on november. 0 manila 1 lets start unpacking i start with kentucky where we can go was the actual primary but because the race was so close to each other they had just now declared amy mcgrath who was the establishment candidate the winner but heres what makes this amazing is it this case with amy mcgrath all along was supposed to be the clear for a democratic senatorial candidate but with the recent protests as well as the shooting and that lugo Briana Taylor you had a tro the booker a mislead grow in popularity to where was such a tight race that they had to go to the absentee ballots to count so that is all about engagement right now in a state like kentucky where senator Mitch Mcconnell will be facing any mcgrath come november lets move to colorado where today is actually the voting day people can drop off their ballot or go to the polls now whats incredible about it colorado is that in 2018 they had a really good number of people turn out for the primary but its being beaten almost by double in 2020 and that by the democrats republicans are still along the same trend but democrats are trending more than 2. 00 to 1. 00 in voters were 23 percent independent still not making their declaration of which candidate they like so that means that independent voter not only in colorado but possibly across the United States has still not made up their mind yet not only are they going to go vote but who theyre going to be voting for colorado can go either way scottie speaking of these primaries on the g. O. P. Side just last week a 24 year old named madison cop born beat the truck and doris candidate for the North Carolina seat vacated by mark meadows after he was named chief of staff to the president says oconnor is a republican does this mean President Trumps popularity is dropping in some of these deep red states like North Carolina and if copper wins the seat mind you scottie he will have just turned 25 and thats going to make him the youngest member of congress that is right now the title held by a o c. Well and Madison Cothren himself is a very strong conserve heres what med is so alarming about this its not about trumps indorsement because truthfully told its the same agenda and mark meadows endorsed both madison as well as his opponent as well as a sort of as rand paul and ted cruz who also got involved in this race behind madison but heres what it shows is the breakdown and the bad sort of advice President Trump is getting and you shouldnt dorsenne the races and the thought might be this might be coming from richard burr and thom tillis the tuesday sitting senators in North Carolina who might be a little intimidated about this fresh new face name madison called for you and so is a Real Estate Investor handicapped and it will tour but in a wheelchair and very well spoken and obviously doing very well in this picture can possibly untie a prostate intimidation might be the reason why they dont want trying to endorse earl he might be a young fresh face for the Republican Party scotty and they needed a much needed a young fresh look and election day is obviously coming you know in november it can be here just like that but were now learning the same company that spied on those 17000 protesters from the Police Brutality marches have also been involved or at least implicated in the 2016 elections targeting a religious group i mean thats a little concerning can anything be done to keep this from happening again this year. Oh manila this was extremely extremely alarming and traded a great job yes theyre breaking down the story but now we hear more to it c. E. O. And meta data a mobile wall actually went on a podcast last year and bragged about playing a key role in the u. S. President ial election in 2016 making millions not only in 20142016 he actually both knew that he was a key arm of one party and he did not say which party that was but you know listen further its easy to decide to talk about the creative segment and evangelicals are obviously means the republicans and track to them that on election day whether or not they came close to election polling place or not if they did his Company Actually sent notices to the ground teams that you need to reach out of there out to these voters and make sure they get to the polls all of this legal but as senator Elizabeth Warren said very alarming because once again theres no restriction to how much this information can be used who can get it and you and i the consumer most often dont even realize that our Cell Phone Companies are taking this information from us i still dont know what mobile wallet actually does so apart than sell your information but i guess not and theyre broken that they basically that when they go in they take all of the information from various companies and maybe get a one cute Little Package and then they sell it to political campaigns here slamming l im very pessimistic that were going to see roll reform because the politicians on both sides of the aisle are very much profiting from this type of data being used by their how are i wont that is good to learn and all the stuff that we just learned scottie now hughes thank you so much for weighing in on that. Thank you and. Now to the latest coded 1000 numbers worldwide cases now topping 10400000 and about 507000 reported deaths the top 3 countries with the most confirmed cases the u. S.
