Welcome to the program 1st off then president putin and his turkish counterpart of how talks at the max 2900. 00. The 2 discussed cooperation on the Syrian Crisis and the possible purchase of russian fighter jets by ankara reports. Well we saw it right here once again the president s of russia and turkey are really enjoying talking about what their countries are doing together naming the projects one after another the likes of the turkish stream gas pipeline project that is being completed. In the black sea or a Nuclear Power plant built in turkey by the Russian Atomic Agency also the deployment of the russian made s. 400 air Defense Systems im going to come back to that one a bit later and also all kinds of business that turkey does in this country but they all the want more and more a 5 fold increase and mutual trade and that is the kind of goal the leaders set for themselves on tuesday here because well we shouldnt forget that we are at an air show right so on tuesday we even heard of the possibility that turkey and russia could Start Building aircraft together we heard that from both president s although no specific details followed for now but still i bet on and lot of our putin have also been very good at finding ways out of tricky crisis situation and theyre rizwan still ongoing and syria and now ankara is really concerned about whats going on in syria is it le bron that is the only remaining opposition on klav there we know that moscow and ankara are behind the forces on the different sides of the front line theyre tired peridot on spoke of how the advancements by the Syrian Government forces are causing civilian casualties and an extended flow of refugees to turkey there well Vladimir Putin in his turn pointed at the continuing attacks by the terrorists that still remain in the globe zone but weve already got used to seeing mr putin and mr aired on so energized to Work Together that somehow they managed to overcome these difficulties so once again theyve shown that and theyre really counting on renewed talks in geneva of these socalled. Constitutional committee that will represent most of the sides in the syrian conflict now i just want to go back to the fact that mr aired on came to russia specifically for the max air show now thats an important thing because it follows a decision by america to scrap the deliveries of American Made fighter jets to turkey as a result of a decision by anchor ought to purchase the s 400 missile Defense Systems these are the ones that i mentioned the deployment is well underway well whats there left to want to do roll out his shopping cart here in russia and this is exactly what he did here.

Do. This coming in from japan which. Would be something very. Easily. If. You really want us to do. You know. Its. The most senior guests of left but its by far not all over yet here at the max 2019 air show the Program Continues for the rest of the week. You know. Drug maker johnson and johnson has been found responsible for driving the Opioid Crisis in the us state of oklahoma judge that ordered it to pay a 572000000. 00 fine he said the pharmaceutical giant had run a false and dangerous Marketing Campaign which downplayed the risk of addiction and directly contributed to deaths johnson and johnson says it will appeal the decision with a look at the implications is kate im open. We got a landmark ruling today in oklahoma the drug manufacturer johnson and johnson a giant Big Pharmaceutical Company in the United States has been found guilty and has been ordered to pay 572000000 dollars to the state of oklahoma in order to deal with the ongoing Opioid Epidemic in the United States this is the 1st time that a big pharmaceutical manufacturers corporation has gone to trial in a case alleging responsibility regarding the Opioid Crisis this is the prosecutor in the case stating what the judge ruled to the judge bachmann has affirmed or position that johnson and johnson motivated by greed and avarice is responsible for the ok would ready have prevented. Johnson and johnson will finally be healed accountable for thousands of deaths and addiction caused by their activities now at the trial the prosecution argued that johnson and johnson and its subsidiaries had overstated the effectiveness of their opioid drugs in treating ongoing chronic pain and understated the risk of addiction posed by their products previously the way Big Pharmaceutical Companies have avoided going to trial is by settling out of court and paying out hundreds of millions of dollars or do pharmaceuticals manage to withdraw themselves from the case by paying a 270000000. 00 settlement for them or tell the pharmaceutical industries they withdrew from the case in may by paying an 85000000 dollars settlement so johnson and johnson was the only defendant in the case they were found guilty now they do expect to appeal the decision the defense argues that this will not hold up in a court of appeal they think that they will be exempt and that the the conviction will be overturned however this is a landmark moment because this is the 1st time that a Big Pharmaceutical Company has been found at trial to be responsible for the Opioid Epidemic. Greats of opioid addiction have increased dramatically in the United States over the past 20 years culminating in nationwide epidemic in the late 1990 s. Prescriptions for painkillers were made readily available as pharmaceutical companies or show doctors that patients would not become addicted but it quickly became clear that many people were becoming dependent with deaths from opioid overdoses reaching a record high of 42000 in the year 2016 the following year the government declared a Public Health emergency and it is a problem that is still claiming scores of lives nationwide in the u. S. Currently an estimated 130 americans die every day as a result of opioid medicine abuse the Health Crisis is also placing a huge strain on the u. S. Economy and its also reportedly encouraging higher rates of heroin use addiction specialist analemma told us that both the pharmaceutical industry and doctors have failed their customers and patients. Well doctors certainly bear some responsibility for the opiate epidemic but i think to really understand how this happened in the United States its necessary to realize that a whole generation of physicians was educated to believe that opioids are not addictive as long as youre giving them to a patient in pain and this was a message that was eagerly adopted by produced by johnson and johnson by chance and by t. V. By many other opioid manufacturers why because it helped their bottom line to sell more opioids so certainly doctors have to be reeducated as they are now they have to withhold opioids they have to stop prescribing opioids for ankle sprains for chronic pain conditions we would not want the pendulum to swing in the opposite direction and for people who really need opioids not to be able to get them so finding some kind of middle ground is going to be essential. The u. N. Is calling for maximum restraint between israel and its adverse or is house fears of a new conflict in the middle east grow the play comes off the Israeli Forces carried out an air strike against iranian troops in syria on saturday and what it said was an effort to thwart a planned drone attack lebanon and iraq also accused israel of conducting aerial attacks against a Shiite Militia groups in the territories over the weekend. Continued instability in the middle east and the alleged culprit is not the wests usual fall boy the israeli strikes were similar to a declaration of war and our country has a right to defend itself a series of attacks syria lebanon iraq and people are pointing the finger at israel. At least. They owned up to that last attack and usually accusations that israels attacked another sovereign nation are met with silence from tel aviv but this time Benjamin Netanyahu justified the attack claiming iran was targeting his country with explosive drones according to him the situation was kill or be killed but logan. If someone rises to kill you rise up and kill him 1st in a complicated operation by our Security Forces we determine that irans quds force dispatched a special unit of militants into syria to kill israelis on the Golan Heights with explosive drones i would like to emphasize that this was an initiative of iran under the command of iran at the behest of iran. Netanyahu often harps on about the supposed dangers of iran but when it comes to the facts the Islamic Republic is often on the receiving end of military violence about a year ago israel struck nearly all of irans military structures inside syria it was the countrys biggest assault since the beginning of the civil war back then netanyahu played the very same preemptive strike card whenever we will hit back sevenfold whoever prepares to strike at us we will act to strike at them beforehand this is what we have done and this is what we will continue to do the never ending demonize ation of iran might have made israel its share of enemies in the middle east but in the west its reeled in some powerful allies this is 40 years 40 years of malign behavior so whether it was seizing a british tanker that was in International Waters or shooting down an american u. A. B. That was also in International Airspace or assassination campaigns in europe are trying to kill an ambassador here in the United States has this long history of blind behavior iran had its tankers detained its airspace violated by drones its military installations outright bombed all by the u. S. And israel what other aggressive provocations does iran have up its sleeve well i got a reaction from iranian and israeli analysts to get their assessment of whats developing iran is trying to envelope israel from all of this through his ball which is the fact of li iran through syria through iraq and even through gaza its like a big octopus sending its arms in order to strangle israel the problem you have the israelis like this oil branch of the world. And because no one no one calls it to account its allowed to get away with essentially murtha. Talking to hit 3 separate sovereign countries in the past few days israel has no issue with iran if iran would focus. On its own people and stop trying to destroy israel as it explicitly says it will do and if amending tear around the world we would have no issue with iran however iran has decided to attack israel to build forces and to strangle israel but were not going to wait with Defense Systems you dont win by playing defense you have to preempt and thats what we will do i see no one questioning why israel is doing something or why israel is provoking this situation at the end of the day israel needs to understand that iran has said this time and time again that look youre playing with fire you dont do this dont be silly behave yourself iran has been a real interest in starting a war and iran will not stop the war its a long and i have said it categorically. What iran will do is attacked or its allies within the resistance axis are directly attacked they will retaliate and rightly so because in this case the aggressor the one whos instigating problems whos lying and making up fairy stories because its control and influence within the Mainstream Media is israel and everyone knows israel is a ropes that its a country that is close to 400. 00 Nuclear Weapons targeted at multiple countries and yet no n. P. T. And no questioning no no discussion about to get iran which has a Nuclear Program of Energy Program it constantly gets accused of making Nuclear Weapons and all this stuff which is slightly from the supreme leaders own discreet discourse is forbidden. The french president has hailed it his what an extremely productive g. 7 summit after 3 days of talks wrapped up in berets on monday but by the group. Of attending World Leaders voicing optimism for the future this years meeting produced very few concrete commitments as our Senior Correspondent mara goes the if. It was nice nice stuff the weather was decent and lots of people nice people good conversation and good stuff nice good in you. First of all i would like to thank President Trump and all the heads of state and government present here for the extremely Productive Work and very productive discussions weve had since saturday evening together i want to thank you very much mr president for the credible job you did this is a truly successful g 7 there was tremendous unity it was great unity as i said nice not exactly wonderful or amazing but yeah pretty nice i mean could have been better they could have agreed on something significant the cheveley little more argued the little less and the fee there was a lot of nervousness at the outset a lot of expectations a lot of tensions and we had a lot of conflicts just look at the bright side theres always next year to get something done is not nice to be fair there was a lot of stuff on the agenda a trade war with china the brazilian president s rudeness brecks of shenanigans whether to invite the largest country in the world iran for the millionth time. We all know what trump thinks about iran much as a bit of a cold war between the 2 most of the rest of the world actually wants to go back to the Nuclear Agreement trump ripped up what a conundrum huh so macron invites the foreign minister of iran hoping to break the ice and surprisingly things became a little all could also unsurprisingly trumpet would eat his own tide before admitting it it was coming in and i respected the fact that it was coming in and he met with president mcbroom in iran is a very difficult situation. In the position not a very good position from the standpoint of economics and thats ok because we concluded a very quickly even said hes open to meeting irans president when the time is right perhaps after another few rounds of sanctions once they find something in iran they havent sanctioned yet speaking of sanctions that trade war is still raging. One mans sanctions are another mans tariffs and the United States likes both so much so trump says he regretted not imposing more tariffs on chinese made goods because as trump making companies and consumers the average american pay more for ordinary stuff is great for everyone which didnt go down well with the rest of the summit squad just think. Its a bit of of you for you. To be honest it wasnt trumps greatest performance there they were having a nice dinner all in cincy is smiles and forced laughs and use and brings up the boogie man. Trying joining your mitchell in star red shoe miss stu prepared mommy tackled style while trump talks about inviting russia back apparently he wouldnt shut up about it i think if youre working. With a number of people who would like to see russia back i think it would be and it would be advantageous to. Many things in the world or das it worse some of those present agreed why on earth would you want to invite a country thats a key player in almost every major global issue. Well it would make sense but not off the crimea g. 7 is for friends and friends pretend to be there for each other everyone knows that and putin it seems has Better Things to do. To get a little g 8 doesnt exist anymore how can i return to an organization which doesnt exist today its the g 7 regarding a potential format with 8 Member States we never reject any proposals some time ago it was russias turn to hold a g. 8 meeting but our partners didnt come up but there are other International Organizations which play a significant role in International Affairs take the g 20. All in all as i said nice great as g 708 sco but the total catastrophe was this year trumped even scientists single page unlike last year when he simply stormed out. That wasnt nice. I asked a leading Us Libertarian Party politician whether he thought there were any positives to be drawn from this years summit. The g 7 is to the world at what the Federal Reserve is the United States is a meddling problematic internationally damaging organization whose time has come and gone and we no longer should be having the 7 meetings at all in my view to me it was political theate
