Time of the obama shindig and some of the look were on the sings. How excited are you to have the world called in your home nation its been told travelogue songs when i was a kid all remember being told of plays what the f. B. I. Shared in the great soviet seems of your early sixtys its the realize i should have a dream for many paper in russia true to dreams the first one for our people is that we built from this creates eleven stadiums so and they are the. Standard people standard it means that after the games everything will be for the people for the young generation so im happy about that second of course you know well get new friends and since the football is the most popular game in the world im sure that there will be some kind of a follow up and thats why im so happy how excited or you are as a russian broadcaster for people maybe in england you all russians equivalent of gary lineker how excited are you for the for the year ahead im really very excited and to tell you the truth i dont believe still but when somebody think russia and im an muscovite i was born and i live in moscow and i still cant believe that the biggest event in football worth will is coming to my homeland i had the great opportunity of going in the summer to the Confederations Cup in russia and i have to say my whole idea and ill conception of russia change why was that were all members of a conversation and so correct in that regard exactly you know people saying oh well you know is it is it going to be difficult leave the communications and the transfer going to be difficult and i t sound quite the opposite i was pleasantly surprised i traveled around it was in Moscow St Petersburg sochi khazan and everybody was very welcoming and wonderful cities lots of people obviously want russia to host a very good world cup how important is it for the host nation to do well to to Gain Momentum in that country. I think is very important and i think that one of the most important things that i would like to do is that they start dealing with the race that they have enough countries and you think theyre doing that at all to your satisfaction but im not sure that theyre doing enough. Ive had some players working as quickly to not have some players playing over there and theyve been. Abused. Thats something that they need to deal delighted to join boyer corps and so very little mustache. Yes i just want.

You know missys and shes single handedly you know the rest of the team could be good job or you could track them through all the way complex to come to switzerland very in this tournament was very competitive and this you know if you see the last few tournaments a qualified country next week so its very small country as such to qualify in a row to such a big load is a big thing first of all its a marriage because to do with a pen the means to achieve it is extremely good the world cup when when and on the seventys and these on the seventh kates on no the girl is going to play russia this well oxford roitfeld you have to tell us about it place so they are holding with our distiller the reason were interesting were special we use are ghana kohli cauldron of heritage greens all grain is an ancient writing of grain and its grown in farms around oxford so can you do with my china zero panama and belgium in the very is it a bit of a result in the book belgium last really helps not and you really does help the fact that even though theyre expected to get those points on the board it means that game because obviously thats all facebook dot com and see these companies games in these competitions even the year is hardly pretty easy gaining in the pot and so on is with could you make something up for us very clearly so one thing for making its a cocktail of the moscow if you will of course it would be appropriate should we expect them to go in concrete or greece you know put your head to look sort of and now i just help me look at it compared to me do you know harry and barely out of you have already proved you know you watch talk by real. Betrayed and they can they can match it with the best of us into going to great group of Young Players but aside every woke up on the wheel get disappointed its what you think of swedens chances i mean we showed it we could beat it still in the playoffs and we were in a group with holland and francisco got second so i think they showed it to get an s. I well call together and difficult to beat of course were hopefully going to try to get better for the wall cup as well but im going to be difficult seem to be ginger ginger these poor insert wonderful. The good stuff look at that hes done that before how important is it for russia to contribute britain for the full force and then get out of the very group for the main surprise here you need you need that to happen i mean the russian chain has got to improve an awful lot today you know the last children of both russia were dreadfully tree cooking for the office and it was organic to the beer excellent store. Fronts one of the favorites competent or you live without a good tournament if the big stars turned out called the grease lorries. As if i run the county we should do well for me when i look up say belgium they like almost for me they look like spain just not playing amazing football and they just need one thing and theyve got the team to kind of really kick you out when you look at the plays that got everyone is playing really top top football so that we just promise yet they got always going to be there but i think belgium is the was blessed by one side just needed a little bit luck some way to click to point to the winners of achievers in a writing free full course will bring. Those friends who were friends i think they made a big mistake in the euros and theyre probably nothing can save the final and both the growth of talent and golfing he resorts to see we often see transfers going to win the tournament.

The new Global Economic war is unfolding in the realm of education the right to education is being supplanted by the right to access education low its High Education is becoming just another product that can be born and sold but its not just about education anymore its also about running a business and what you know most of.

You have a winner take all pans out its a lottery mentality in america you know where are your dead and the pharmaceutical companies are the lobbyist going to washington the laws of a possible to peddle all cost in america and nobody cares because it ever learned a lot as a walmart today they said lets do it again. Young children have worked in bolivia for generations almost three quarters of a million are doing so today. This culture led to the development of bolivias new liberal and highly controversial childrens code in two thousand and fourteen which gave children as young as ten the right to work under certain circumstances one doesnt have to miss. These only. Eat one of them with us in the end dont. Need anything from the since years. But there are hundreds of thousands of children in bolivia operating completely out. Signed the local. Mining work is strictly forbidden by the children but its never enforced and that means the school boy minus here continue risking their lives for the money they need to survive. Was. It. Was. The u. S. Defense secretary outlines a new strategy where countering russia and china takes priority over the fight against terrorism. A scandal worse the watergate so plain republican lawmakers about a top secret memo allegedly exposing senior level nor enforcements political bias against donald trump. French Police Fire Tear gas at striking Prison Guards at europes largest jail as a protest against severe working conditions. And a teenager in just six people including a teacher in an axe or tack on a school in eastern siberia the third such incident in russia in less than a week. This is r. T. International coming to you live from moscow im Kate Partridge thank you for joining us. If you decide to challenge americas experiment in democracy its going to be your worst day those were the words of u. S. Defense secretary james mattis as he unveiled americas new Defense Strategy which will now primary focus on deterring russia and china. But we will continue to prosecute the campaign against terror that were engaged in today but Great Power Competition not terrorism is now the primary focus of your Security First and foremost this americas Defense Strategy so to speak is so much on the offensive side of the tracks it almost makes you think that someone copy and pasted the old name into the you know into the headline space so its the First Time Since the cold war American Military is focusing on this great competition of powers so this can really be seen as sort of a that sort of mentality making a comeback what it also means is the infamous war on terror is taking the backseat it is being put on the back burner so to speak instead washington is focusing on russia china iran and north korea but really the pentagon is singling out moscow and beijing have a listen we face growing threat from revisionist powers as different as china and russia or from each other nations that do seek to create a world consistent with their authoritarian models pursuing Veto Authority over and other nations economic Diplomatic Security decision doctrine calls for modernization what what would you expect to see well another word used by the u. S. Defense secretary was fundamental this is how he characterized this modernization that hes been talking about and mostly the pentagon is going to be focusing on space on Cyber Security and on its Nuclear Program so in terms of Cyber Security theyre going to be overhauling the whole thing really we dont know the details yet but obviously big big big changes are coming up especially with all of the russia and china craze in terms of the Nuclear Program theyre seeing it as a reaction you know as sort of a reaction to what russia has been doing in this sphere certainly to outer space and defense position that this is not going to be cheap whats the money being talked about the secretary of defense. Use this opportunity to ask for more money or at least while making a step in the direction saying that budget cuts are arguably delivered to the worst blows to the pentagon and to the us national and National Defense but at the same time you have to remember that its not only about how much money the pentagon gets but also how it chooses to spend it for example hundreds of billions of dollars have been splashed out on the new of thirty five fighter jet and development hasnt been even passed the most basic stages. They executive director of the ron paul institutes Daniel Mcadams say is the change in u. S. Rhetoric as dangerous. Theres a big threat that the u. S. Is going to shift from socalled soft power to hard power and were supposedly seeing a decline in diplomacy in the state department and secretary of state tillerson is supposedly taking on less of a role on the ground its a predictable thing this is essentially a rehash of the old wolfowitz doctrine of nine hundred ninety four there is no new thinking involved the u. S. Must remain the sole superpower on earth we must do anything we can move heaven and nerves spent untold amounts of money to prevent any rivals from coming up to challenge us the u. S. Is essentially guilty of doing all the things that if you cues as russia and china are doing including attempting to have more influence in the South China Sea and in east asia so it really is a superpower that is unfortunately because of its hyper interventionism on the way on the wane in terms of influence in of course it is a very dangerous thing because a cornered animal is more likely to attack. And growing number of us republican congressman demanding the release of a top secret intelligence document they believe it reveals political bias at the highest levels of the f. B. I. And the Justice Department in how they handle the investigation i
