another turbulent week for venezuela both russian and u.s. resolutions to resolve the country's crisis failed at the u.n. security council while washington's economic pressure comes caracas to transfer the european h.q. of its main oil firm to moscow. france sees a sixteenth weekend of universe movement unrest with police resorting to tear gas and water cannons against protests. u.s. and north korean leaders hold their second some of it failed to reach a deal on denuclearization accusing each other of unreasonable demands.

good evening and welcome this is r.t. international. the u.s. has formed a coalition to hand over power in venezuela from the current leader nicolas maduro to the self-proclaimed president. this is according to the u.s. security advisor john bolton who says that the plan is for a peaceful transition of power. so i'd like to see as broad a coalition as we can put together to replace to replace the whole corrupt regime block in this administration we're not afraid to use the phrase munroe doctor and spin the objective of american presidents going back to ronald reagan to have a completely democratic hemisphere. well the dr mention there was unveiled by president james monroe in the nineteenth century it attempts to stop any european interference on the american continent the declaration that any such action would be seen as unfriendly towards the us many interpret the doctrine as being an

assertion of complete us hegemony over the entire western hemisphere where the loop korea cobra associate professor at george mason university says such nineteenth century principles have no place in the modern world they're barely in the final banter. but the foundations of the markets the without and so to negotiation baby international community the model of doubt mean was in a period where there were some international. and europe was agreeing with america for the americans leaving the united states dealing with the issues of the western hemisphere today we're talking about a multi parlor world and i don't really know why it would i mean what would that mean even if america can be only for americans when you're talking about a world that's more globalized when other countries also have interest in the americas economic interests very important economic interests. on the border

between venezuela and colombia witness for the violence this week because tensions over american aid deliveries intensified venezuelan president nicolas maduro has blocked the shipments from entering claiming they could be carrying weapons and international efforts in the crisis have stalled with the u.n. security council rejecting draft resolutions both from russia and the united states . by voting against this resolution some members of this council continue to shield woodrow and his cronies and prolong the suffering of the venezuelan people the time for a peaceful transition to democracy is now they're going to use them with us finally we have reached the culmination of the american orchestrated double standards show over venezuela washington and london have both again robbed an entire nation of billions of dollars in the same time are pushing them to accept a pittance due to regime change as they say you first of all create great humanitarian problems and then you call upon the whole world to solve them we look

forward to genuinely free and fair elections. and to a government that reflects the will and aspirations of the venezuelan people. today's vote is an excellent example of where the veto rule is necessary for protecting the peace and people's right to determine their future both the russian and the u.s. resolutions didn't pass the voting in the un security council the russian one got less votes in favor that against four in favor and seven against the us draft was vetoed by russia and china the russian ambassador said that if the u.s. resolution had passed it would be the first case in history that the united nations security council to posed a legitimate leader and imposed another one to a sovereign country the venezuelan representative spoke as well calling to stop interfering in the matters of his country the power to this will has to do with having a swollen sovereignty and of an assault on people they behave like colonial east they are planning a planned this kind of peroration against it is sort of right out of the same kind

of took it out of force at the same time they are just feeding out of money this is something outrageous indeed so the diplomatic community in the crossroads again the u.n. as thieves members who spoke after the voting called it to all of their colleagues to put their differences aside to resolve the venezuelan crisis reporting in new york treated each other as r.t. . meanwhile hundreds of activists of rallied in the spanish capital madrid in support of president with demonstrators that way towns of venezuela banners and denounce what they see is an attempt by the u.s. to intervene in another country's internal affairs of a desire visited venezuela as a un report in twenty seventeen days that washington is likely to escalate the situation. quite clear to me that the united states is waging war on international law now that trump does that does not surprise me question is what will the. international crises in pristina be for the united

states. the united states take the risk of a flagrant aggression against them as well there is a danger of violence and it should be the function of the united nations to prevent that. it is that washington has its sights firmly set on venezuela's oil reserves the world's largest u.s. sanctions have already blocked seven billion dollars with the state owned assets so in a proactive move venezuela's ordered the oil companies european h.q. to be relocated to moscow as president does have a very old is more. it over there in fact the americans are pursuing a predatory policy appropriating venezuela's assets and therefore violating the legitimate interests of our country they violated all existing international investment rules asked for europe where venezuela's accounts were frozen we have

already begun to take specific legal steps we hired lawyers to protect our interests primarily with regard to our gold which is now illegally withheld by the bank of england we also began to take measures for of in israel's legal protection we're talking about the theft of the israel and assets which was organized by the united states and venezuela has the right to protect its legitimate interests asked for the transfer of the v.s.e. office from europe to moscow this is connected with the expansion of the corporation of the russian company in the field of energy and the feel of oil and gas together with the european office of. other branches of the company will also move to moscow. or the u.s. is also canceled visas of fourteen influential venezuelans aligned with president durham says anyone who steals from the venezuelan people or undermines democracy is not welcome francisco domingo said of latin american studies at middlesex university believes that the u.s. is doing everything in its power to achieve its goal of venezuela. people in

venezuela particularly the million. dollars drum and the pressure from the united states in particular almost exclusively on the military literally. three years again and again through was coercion on. may you name it got those words where's it going on be only seeing it's us all foreign the goal almost nothing listen to me lo these raises the specter or something. which can be organizing irregular forces and train and organize but the united states and mr avram see exactly that. is a look at that so this is just concerned there will that confirms not only won't always be fitted by the most is going to school something much more dramatic. for the sixteenth weekend in a row yellow vests marches have been held in cities across france clashes erupted

at some of the demonstrations on saturday with police deploying tear gas and water cannon. forty thousand were said to taken part in those marshes nationwide four thousand of them in paris alone on friday president back home again appealed for calm and urged people to refrain from the sort of violence that's been seen in recent weeks police made several arrests today while the yellow vests began as a grassroots rally that was over feel taxes in a sense broadened into why their anger at the president's handling of the economy.

that they should at least meet one of our demands to show they are listening to us that we are not doing this for nothing fuel prices are rising and they were supposed to be frozen all traces are increasing in the supermarket to ten percent on products it's the opposite of what we want. we want them to give purchasing power back to the people lower fat on essential products and grant us the citizens initiative referendum those are the two essential demands as long as they don't give us that we won't stop. this that people in difficult times people who have a hot time surviving on the wrist i think constant and i haven't the courage to call masses and masses against police violence i have many different messages.

was. on tuesday in. carried out an airstrike on what it said was a terrorist camp in pakistan increasing phase of a military confrontation between two nuclear neighbors. south asian politics on security expert melinda mr a believes that there may be

a foreign power behind the conflict and what we are seeing at the moment is the low intensity conflict on the ground and this is going to go on what you need to remember here is that although the pakistani prime minister region the indian captured pilot has ecclesiastes there's a lot of history at the high end that i found out how to do with the press he's personally coming from the united states side the united i mean it's kind of forced pakistan to take the point you said that it took neither of these parties want to go down the path to peace and in pakistan the army has the state so there is a military establishment is there a walk on india we haven't lost the least in divided his own party which is craving for some kind of confrontation at foxconn which would give it to claxon under my list in the forthcoming election. but trump is dedicated much of

a two hour unscripted speech to explain after the break. back skies are one for my guide to financial survival this is. a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right. not accountable. to the. global economy you need to protect yourself and get in for. lost its moral compass and maybe if to put more values into the system my true. multinational institutions are living in the dark ruled it's like.

having always. come to action so we need to put back to the system and we need stronger leadership and better leadership. trump a north korean leader kim jong un along with their retinues and thousands of journalists descended on the capital of vietnam for a bilateral summit the much hyped talks failed to produce any deal on north korea's denuclearization or the lifting of u.s. sanctions against pyongyang trump and kim just unable it seems to agree on but despite little had. washington and pyongyang did say that the dialogue will

continue and as an apparent goodwill gesture the u.s. and south korea suspending their annual joint military exercises the pentagon says that's to reduce tension and to advance denuclearization on the peninsula but the drills have not in fact being counseled rather replaced by another set of exercises to scale him open take stock of the second trump summit. the talks in hanoi between trump and cam were complete failure or well bob trump says the talks failed because of what he says were unreasonable demands they wanted the sanctions lifted. in their entirety and we couldn't do that but that is not how north korea remembers the meeting what we proposed wasn't the removal of all sanctions but they were partial removal we proposed to the united states articles of sanctions that impede the symbol of economy and the law of our people so with conflicting information about what actually took place at the meeting between the two leaders we've now got

the u.s. state department issuing an explanation of the explanation after the talks flopped in hanoi trump jumped on a plane to alaska it was certainly not singing the song of peace as he praised the troops america does not seek conflict but if we are forced to defend ourselves we will fight and we will win in an overwhelming fashion you are a powerful warning to the world to never strike american soil you are a warning that everybody knows about and nobody wants to play with you would think that with the utter trainwreck that was the talks with pyongyang that donald trump would be cruising for a bruising when he got back to the united states however that doesn't seem to be the case the epic failure seems to have been met with pretty broad approval both democrats and republicans seemed rather chipper about it it's good that the trend isn't good not getting many things was a little bit that he was proposing the north koreans walk away thinking you know

they've got they've won and gradually they will see they were sanctions regime begin to erode then they've won and frankly that would be unfortunate i was smart to expose the north korean delegation to the god of our economic prosperity that could be possible it's a good thing that he walked away rather than agreeing to something that was badly flawed democratic presidential candidate toasting gabbert seem to stand alone invoicing disappointment kim jong un has clearly stated that he is holding on to these nuclear weapons as his only deterrent against the united states coming. and waging a regime change war in north korea so you know i'm deeply concerned about the fact that this summit yesterday ended without an agreement it's not surprising because of this policy this regime change our policy my pompei all laid out the washington consensus with rather sharp terminology america has a responsibility to protect itself by pushing back against those evil nations and

those evil leaders who intend to do real harm to the world yes much like george w. bush with his rhetoric about evil doers donald trump is not setting himself up to winning nobel peace prize any time soon but most of the political establishment that normally hates donald trump seems to think that that's a ok mop and artsy new york. political expose told is the trump ministrations who. owns approaching north korea's trust in white house promises. it was not no deal versus bad deal it was a missed opportunity and the real question remains whether what was it that caused president or chairman kim for that matter to stand up and walk away hour and a half early i think there's a crisis in confidence between north korea in the us you know kim knows what's going on in the world and he looks around and he sees unfortunately and

depressingly the united states simply doesn't keep its word around the world trump is going trying to show success he and that i think was one of the considerations in the discussions in in vietnam over over north korea missiles the reality is is a trump is looking to make a deal and to show international success and to so that he can have something to come back to and to offset the turmoil the inter the political turmoil he's facing back home but if we've taken over isis in syria then the question remains what about the troops u.s. troops who are there in syria what will happen with them those are questions of remain unanswered back at home varying off script stunning trumps given a two hour speech at the conservative political action conference but it seems that there's been little change to the topics with the russia probe dominating.

america is winning again. america is respected again. say something like russia please if you can get us hillary clinton's e-mails. so everybody's having a good time mom laughing we're all having fun and then that fake c.n.n. and others. russia to go good. moral collusion with russia the collusion delusion. had a nasty business transaction with robert muller a number of years ago i said why isn't that mention he wanted the job as f.b.i.

director i mean these are things that are out there. it was in america first in many cases it was america last we are reversing decades of blunders and betrayals you know i'm totally off script right now. and this is how i got elected by being off script. but this hand was apparently also found with putin accused of being the man behind the speech. how many pieces parts of president putin's to do less was president trying trying to accomplish today he was also saying things that really look like lattimer putin scripted his speech these people some of them millionaires billionaires the best the brightest squad made up giving you the best and they actually said that nobody came in with a hawk nobody no white coat came in and sedated them and say would you lads when

you were at least wait let the russian thing go home now i'm not trying to tell people what to do but one could argue that there are some things that president drop has said that might be care isapi can't controversial you're my one to go there this is trump arrangement but there is a trump hifi and putin hyphen russia during syndrome this is a preoccupation a pavlovian obeys and it's this weird kind of a connection it's an obsession an obsessive compulsive. reaction that they can not let go. while the u.s. media continues to hunt for a link between the president of the team and putin donald trump's describes former lawyer michael cohen first provide any evidence of collusion with russia when he

testified before congress on wednesday members of the house accused him of being a liar cohen a previously pleaded guilty to lying to congress about term suppose connections to moscow but this time he pulled no punches when talking about his former boss. today i am here to tell the truth about. he is a racist. is a con man. and he is a cheat mr trump knew of and directed the trump moscow negotiations throughout the campaign and lied about it and i have never asked for nor would i accept a pardon from president trump ladies and gentlemen how on earth is this witness credible he's a fake witness his presence here is a travesty and you have a history of lying over and over and over again he said we were in search of the truth i don't believe that michael coleman is capable of telling the truth he lied

to congress through false statements and written statements he lied to congress through his testimony even able to fight his false statements by releasing him refuting his lies to the public with it. because it. was a trump comfort zone for more than a decade after his moment in the spotlight he'll begin a three year prison sentence in the spring the tanks and banking fraud as well as lying to congress we discussed his testimony with former us republican congressman michael patrick flanagan. as we call it in the united states when election season comes near we call it the silly season and in the silly season silly things happen this is a little early. something that you'd see in the silly season cohen is willing to use the word racist and criminal and liar and anyone who's willing to speak in that absolute in that strongest terms in washington will always have an audience on one side or the other there was just an angry man who wanted to be chief of staff who

didn't get to be chief of staff who is furious he could make a ton of money off the trump name after trump was elected president has decided after all that he needs to get even in a vicious new york stupid sort of way and so he's going to come to congress and lie some more he's been disbarred for lying to the state of new york despite of the polls his law license because he's a liar a man who took their promise who took that oath and then took another oath in front of congress and has lied constantly can't be trusted ever to tell the truth even if he is telling the truth it will require cooperation substantiation and some backup and none of that was provided i say without say it was appreciated here on vent with the dice and often are. play. play.

i've been saying the numbers mean something they've mattered the u.s. has over one trillion dollars in debt more than ten white collar crime families each day. eighty five percent of global wealth he longs to be ultra rich eight point six percent and little market goes thirty percent some with four hundred to five hundred three per second per second and fifth when he rose to twenty thousand dollars. china's building two point one billion dollars a i industrial park but don't let the numbers overwhelm. the only number you need to remember in one one

business show you know for the mid one and only boom but. what i see images and hear things but their voice. i see people who are afraid not see these young men and some women i mean white supremacists and i see those i see really scared. scared they lose it. all they have the whole on that is the color of their skin that's all they have going for themselves to their whites good . mom.

hello and welcome to worlds apart adam smith the four father of modern economics the one sad death resentment is the safeguard of justice and the security of innocence the latest wave of resentment that produced cracks it and don't trump is open discounted as populism or russia's plotting but isn't it and then they have a terrible and authentically western response to the injustices and abuses of globalization while to discuss that i'm now joined by frank you're going to retire founder and chairman of harasses the global visions community mr richter's good to talk to you thank you very much for the time music for having me now i know that you worked for a number of european multinationals in china you saw globalization up close and personal and you usually speak very favorably about it but i wonder if that's not their vantage point bias if you happen to observe with let's say from the american

midwest wouldn't your views be a little bit different. me currently experiencing a crisis of globalization the deep seated resentment of globalization is spoiling over old white create portion of the rule is perceiving to itself a school work station loses this resentment is excited to fight by the movement in france but also by the rise of donald trump and i guess most of those who voted for donald trump globalization to those one of the things that we usually hear about globalization is that it lifted millions of people out of poverty and that is undeniable nobody argues but if you happen to be had of a multinational company it would have also benefited your bank account in very very generous ways whereas if you are a blue collar worker who saw his factory closed and a shopping mall opened in its place what did bad fits of globalization be just as apparent well globalization is here to stay there's no doubt about it but i think

we have to redefine globalization and maybe catalyze the benefits of globalization you put it right. the anglo-saxon model of capitalism and the globalization eastern crisis even so we have seen an economy crowe's over the last few would take it's not everybody is spending fitting from globalization we see a shrinking of the middle class in america and in europe and even saw on the surf ace a lot of economic success the middle class are shrinking and less people who can really benefit from globalization well let's talk about why that happened as asian clearly has benefited export oriented economies like china or germany much more and much more evenly than imports oriented economies including the united states is it really surprising that that the pushback against globalization or the current form of globalization with the region eight in america wasn't of balun to.
