Thanks for joining us this evening. U. S. President called off a strike on iran just 10 minutes before it was due to be launched. Nor a dove with called incense you just want to kill anybody quote unless its absolutely necessary one thing i want to know. How many. Will die i dont want to kill. Friends. Many friends i dont want to kill. Anybody. The councils attack was meant to be in retaliation for to irans downing of a u. S. Military surveillance drone over the gulf region strait of hormuz run said it was ready to quote to its collection of downed drones if washington violates its airspace aunties killer morgan has more. In terms of words he seems to have indicated it could have been a human error he pointed out that it could have been a general or some other official who made the mistake of ordering for the drone to be shot down i find it hard to believe it was intentional if you want to know the truth i think that it could have been somebody who was loose and stupid now iran is said that the drone did indeed enter their airspace and violate their territory and that they intend to go to the United Nations in order to prove this they say that it was in the southern part of their country that this drone entered their airspace and that they shot it down for violating their airspace at this point weve got the Iranian Foreign minister condemning the United States for what he calls economic terrorism the us wages economic terrorism on iran has conducted covert action against those and now encroaches on our territory we dont seek war but was endlessly to fend off sky land and waters will take this new aggression to the u. N. And show you that the u. S. Is lying about International Waters now the u. N. Secretary general antonio gets here as is calling on all parties to remain calm and exercise restraint i strongly hope that. The situation will be contained because as i said and i repeat the world does not really need any measure of confrontation in the gulf russian president Vladimir Putin recently said that an attack on iran would be potentially disastrous which id like to say straight away that a military conflict between the u. S. And iran would be a disaster at least for the region it would be an outburst of violence with terrible consequences its very hard to predict what would happen in the case of military force being used now many observers have noted that it seems that the white house is powerless in toward iran has been rather consistent this is all the United States has approached iran during the trumpet ministration of their neighbors are spread instability or terror everywhere we go in the middle east its a rare. Major destabilize. Implodes in the middle east spread death destruction and chaos weve been trying to do is to get the wrong to behave like a normal mission now the United States recently sent a 1000 new troops to the middle east region in response to a supposed threat from the Islamic Republic of iran now on june 13th when 2 oil tankers were attacked the United States blamed iran for the incident however iranian officials rejected those accusations outright and said that it was actually their ships that were on scene to rescue the sailors who had been hurt and take them for medical assistance so at this point all eyes are on the middle east region all eyes are on the u. N. Where International Bodies will be hearing and taking up this issue and all eyes are on washington as a response from the United States could be very possible. Artsy new york. As the blame game ramps up washington tightening the economic screws on tehran with new sanctions to the Islamic Republic monday caleb asked people in new york if they would support a war against iran. Can you imagine a situation where it would be you would be in support of a war with iran suppose it was the last one was another war and then another war then another you know things other ways. To. Go about things open assassinations and bombing other people and we knew about it you could prove it i think we need real proof that some type of activity is actually happening where people are losing life losing land where some type of injustice is happening at the hands of iran but at this point i dont really know that thats necessarily true of a terrorist attack on you know innocent people you know Something Like 911 happens of course the response is this is necessary and immediate. Is war the answer to that maybe not maybe but i still think personally we should find a different solution besides war weve been to many wars a lot of people have died in doesnt seem to make the issues go with. Iran is having my alliance against the horrors that i think the country maybe can resolve is always use. Other countries interference and i can say is i hope nobody gets hurt i hope for peace. In uranian National Security official says the while tehran hasnt attacked anybody that is ready to retaliate. Or have whose. You can find our troops statements always different for example statements from yesterday and today he also contradicts white house officials such political matter is devoid of logic and common sense we do not take seriously his threats and contradictory statements but in the end it must be noted that the Islamic Republic of iran is not iraq or afghanistan we are a big state and have strong Popular Support both during the present but also pos townships the Islamic Republic has been Standing Firm and never attacked anyone and will not do that if we are attacked the aggressor will regret it at the same. Time we strive for peace and security in our region that is the policy of sanctions and the economic war launched by trump against the iranian people will not yield any results this is a hostile policy that will be defeated as a result. Members of the venezuelan opposition have been implicated in a Corruption Scandal leaked documents appear to reveal officials from wang why does movement have been embezzling aid funds for personal abuse when he was interned of the soldiers who defected and fled to neighboring colombia argue the money. Humanitarian aid it is more a humanitarian robbery that all the money from the famous humanitarian aid fund was stolen of take note washington not only are the opposition liars but they are thieves too thousands of dollars from each other. Thousands of dollars for an aid concert on the colombian border apparently spent on hotels prostitutes and thats records by 2 members of quite as party they were in charge of overseeing the humanitarian aid aunties right guess the reports. Sex drugs and rocknroll arent something youd associate with a humanitarian aid concert wrongly that seems colombian authorities themselves a shocked and barris that what theyve uncovered and to think it all began so innocently we need to try to help those who are not getting medical help help those who are hungry and today hopefully on the back of this concert we can start maybe getting supplies into that to sway those people who are not suffering so much back then the freshly selfproclaimed president of venezuela called in the military to defect join him and top of the corrupt regime. We gladly armed forces welcome to the right side of history welcome to the soldiers who are today following the constitution welcome hundreds of soldiers did defect some with families some of the small children they scared to colombia they were put in hotels and by mid march were living in the streets we are desperate we do not want to stay in colombia we want to return to venezuela but not in the current Living Conditions we do not know. How could this happen out of the 7 hotels that the soldiers were staying in all but 2 were being paid for by the un and the colombian government 2 hotels is all who and why do those representatives had to pay for except they didnt according to the journalists who broke this story why and why do all of this a month ago. We couldnt allow for any bad managing of money to overshadow what has been a big effort on the part of all venezuelans thats why as soon as we had the information about the Ongoing Investigation we decided to send it straight to every impartial of dorothy. The people who did this bear in mind were appointed by why do personally and he only chose to speak with the story already Public Knowledge saying transparent investigation is needed also amazingly managing to somehow imply that the venezuelan government does involve culpable complicit and that guy duo doesnt cover up corruption which he kept covered up for at least a month obviously the actual venezuelan government has questions. This huge drop in corruption poor to divert the money that we could use. Instead of being spent on food and medicine these been used to pay for alcohol prostitutes expensive Shopping Trips and Luxury Hotels as do those allies why is his party which promises to cleanse venezuela of corruption and exercise the demons of the old regime why are these people blowing tens of thousands of dollars in aid money on prostitutes drugs and booze and live a concert that Richard Branson blair along with others in the us. A chance of february 22nd 23rd is a complete failure forces inside of bennett and columbia have been using their money to enrich themselves for luxury in 5 star hotels and therefore theyre really showing what theyre about its about power for personal enrichment the Corruption Scandal is just one small part of what the u. S. Is engaging in in this enormous assault a genocidal assault against the people of venice well its hundreds of millions its tens of billions of dollars that the u. S. Is stealing in the name of one way though stealing money from the venice well people. President of georgia researching russians to continue visiting her country with tbilisi insisting its safe for tourists and foreign journalists and stuff to moscow temporarily banned direct flights to and from georgia Russias Foreign Ministry alleges that georgias rather gloat position is exploiting the visit of a russian delegation to mount protests 240. 00 people have been injured in the demonstrations including 8 to Police Officers and a producer at r. T. The agency. Was. Was. Just not going to the situation got very heated there was respirator and then the crowd geared up for another storm stone sticks and bottles were thrown from the side of the crowd special forces fired rubber bullets and deployed tear gas. In protest erupted after russian and peace i think every love sat in the chair of the Georgian Parliament speaker this happened during the opening session of a multilateral Parliamentary Assembly meant to promote orthodox christianity the georgian opposition prevented people from taking to the podium afterwards we talked to told us that radicals or attempting to disrupt already complicated russian georgia relations. But its good to know you only see it as a president of the assembly i have the right to take this seat in any country where the Assembly Session is held in this case the place was offered by the georgian side the session was invaded by radicals who shouted threats to our lives we tried to continue but more radical activist showed up with cameras and posters with anti russian and insulting slogans we decided to finish the session in the hotel nearby radicals tried to storm the hotel they attacked members of parliament including me when we tried to leave i believe all of this is the racist styria in the wake of protests to take power. That only the georgian president blamed the russian official for what happened saying the protests benefit nobody but the kremlin cut short a visit to berlin to return home due to the antigovernment demonstrations and the kremlin responded to the accusations a quote rissa phobic provocation moscow described the 2 days of large scale rallies in the capital of georgia. Protesters are now demanding the government resign new rallies being held right now in tbilisi so far without incident we spoke to the former acting president of georgia nino budget nancy who believes that the government has been fermenting anti russian sentiment. The russian border in relations are really very difficult and sensitive issue or who are you against aside and most of the population never received the same message the russian m. P. In that year of 2 idea and speaker is this something which is just creating a problem for what stability of the current 3 or something which is they just touching in the past and sense of morality of that country and it was easy to predict from the side of the government dubai had absolutely unbelievable how im competent and the government and. Absolutely sure full nervously and for me the government did not being fully implemented or crushing georgian relations during the last few years so there was no any kind of positivity in this that direction were political cartoonists who were holding them as well as themselves as a pro western and right and right now 2 years they seem. To say sincere brain upset people in their Political Goals and 2 are just strengths in these 2 russian really exists in a serious part of jordan population to only one of her girl could be blamed for are they nice and all should be obstinate and but itll be irresponsible lazed if that is the government and stupidity of the government. Coming out of the u. K. Zome so Society Arabia will come under review after an Appeals Court sides with pisco against the government that story a more than a few bucks. Some time all shores were like the honey part. Everyone believe that it was all unstable and unreliable and russia but they thought that everyone was great over there russian businessmen who wanted to do business in the worst because they feared some could take everything away from them in russia its now its the opposite dave business is outside of russia was snatched less is frozen all blog now the student whine about. The dish arm sells to saudi arabia could be on the line after peace campaigners won a legal challenge over the potential use of the weapons in yemen they claim they lucrative contracts breach International Law and contribute to what the u. N. Calls the worlds worst humanitarian crisis British Appeal Court judges are now demanding a review is what the opponents of the arms sales to the kingdom had to say right after the verdict. This comes from the very top of the conservative party we now need a judicial review in the whole anxiety system parliament has been shown to be totally broke we now need a Public Inquiry on this matter the government should not waste time in appealing this judgement the government should fix our system this has been a brutal condemnation of u. K. Foreign policy vis theres been a very strong judgement against it we want to see action from the government the court has done its job its time for the government to do its job the decisions that took in relation to existing license theft and make the decisions they took to continue to run licenses those decisions are a little full and they have to go back and reconsider. The courts decision might affect the u. K. s largest defense contract to be a systems as riyad represents a significant part of the groups business is the sound of bombardment started in 2015 the u. K. Is license 4700000000 pounds worth of weapons but its the 2nd biggest exporter of arms to the saudis and its the u. K. s Largest Military export contract with no end in sight to the conflict yemen is on the brink of collapse you may find some of the following images disturbing. Since the beginning of the operation the saudi governments been insisting its fighting the booth the rebels are only without targeting civilians anyone in the face of strong criticism at home conservative Party Ministers have been pains to stress that its not the u. K. Which chooses the targets in yemen a former british politician we spoke to says a general election could be a game changer. At a time when most of british attention is focused inevitably on braggs it its really important that we do look at 2 the issues such as arms sales and in particular in this special case because so many people are losing their lives in yemen and really its a difficult situation that has to be resolved and its significant that all of the opposition parties not just the labor party but also the liberal democrats and the scottish nationalists and other smaller parties have agreed really that this is not something that britain or to be supporting its really only the conservatives who have taken this line of strong support for arms sales to saudi arabia and so there probably will need to be a general election for that to change and that is more likely to succeed perhaps than the legal challenge. For. Russian president s annual q. And a session received more than 2000000 questions from the Public Limited in spent some 4 hours on thursday answering more than 80 questions on various subjects including International Issues and watch the session in full on line now there here are some of the key points. Its better if the american side shows interest we are always ready for dialogue or what we see what is happening in us domestic politics the president will always look back on the race hes in right now some in the american establishment are speculating about our countrys relationship with trying to find problems and telling lies if we. Went to paris and said he would not talk to the separatists representatives of these unrecognized republics how will the
