this is again not our choice unfortunately the united states of america believe that. there is a historic chance for them to a grant the existence of a union union paulo brought the situation has changed after the speech of mr putin all previous arrangements like. developing the anti missile system in europe like trying to broaden the of the borders of the. disarmament treaties which reach are unfortunately being somehow violated by the american side all these attempts in my mind now has to pass to the to the to the past to the public but pastimes because of the situation is definitely changed russia is strong enough in order to protect its own national interests and russia is self-sufficient enough in order to be a good partner in all future possible constructions of our calculation and we are ready for this cooperation definitely constancy cousin joe thank you very much russian senator but we will be gathering more opinions more more interviews with people who were invited here the ruling class the policy makers here in russia to talk about vladimir putin's food vote

the united states of america. there are two components to our presence in yemen which should not be confused. one is where we are directly involved against forces associated with al qaeda. this debate is not about that. the administration contends and we do not dispute today whether or not that is covered by the 2001 authorization for the use of military force. i think there are many of us that feel that initial 2001 aumf authorization for the use of military force has been stretched beyond recognition. that is a debate for a different day. this argument is directly about our support of saudi arabia in bombing the houthi in yemen. that is the central question. and for us to understand why this is so important, one, it's the integrity of the constitution. if we do not hold the executive accountable, the constitution of the united states of america, then we are essentially taking that key, critical clause that gave us responsibility for when military force is used by the united states. out of the constitution and de

, a massive foreign diplomatic triumph for the united states of america. and we are -- we are mineful of the role of successive administrations. we wish america always to be constructive. and i believe that's the intention of this administration as with others. but i guess we're asking people at this stage now to step up and to demonstrate that by way of deed. so there is talk of a special envoy being appointed. i very much hope that that happens. i heard george mitchell speak so eloquently last evening in the library of congress, so movingly, so passion knitly about the process of building peace. >> he knows it probably better than anybody except for you in that country having been the key negotiator. but i wonder you just said you met at the state department. and we've been talking about the changing of the guard there. did you actually meet with rex tillerson? is he still on the job? >> no. no. indeed we didn't. and we were -- we were busily examining issues that for me are domestic matters. i have to say, though, you conhelp but feel that there was a c

bonds from the united states of america. this is critically important, because of all of the arguments about trade wars. could you see a buyer strike? could it come from china? the irony is china owns the most bonds in seven years. that is what you saw on the back end of last year. would you do with the proceeds, you put it into treasuries. they are the holders of these bonds. that is where the risk lies. j.p.estingly, you have morgan going 5% underweight bonds versus 0% on the prior month. j.p. morgan asset a location is shifting. the foreign central banks love them. geopolitics and play. treasury demand something we are watching. we will bring you some interesting voices on a range of topics today. conversation with john mcdonnell. we talked about brexit. bring you our interview with the saudi oil minister. you heard him talking about the timing of the aramco ipo. let's get a bloomberg first word news update. juliette: the bank of japan has its monetary stimulus with corona's final policy meeting before his new term begins

in the history of the united states of america. here in the senate, my democratic colleagues' predictions were equally dire. my friend, the democratic leader, offered this assessment. quote, there's nothing about this bill that suits the needs of the american worker. tax reform used to be a shared bipartisan priority. apparently not any more. now our democratic friends seem fully committed to the notion there's no problem washington, d.c. can't solve by raising taxes and imposing more regulations. just last week my friend, the democratic leader, made this clear. he announced he wants to claw back tax reform and have americans send more money to the i.r.s. here is his rationale. there are much better ways to use this money. much better ways to use this money. than for people to keep more of their own money apparently. the unspoken assumption is unmistakable. democratic leaders know how to spend that money better than the citizens and employers. the government knows best. of course just a few months in we're getting a clear picture o

as donald trump is trying to do with the united states of america. but we are supporting vladimir putin exactly for this reason. and if you attack the russian president vladimir putin and demonise him, we will support him more. because we understand very well and you are criticising mr putin and russian authorities exactly for the things that we like about them. i want to repeat again, sergei skripal needs a real investigation. police control the intelligence services. you are british citizens. you are not controlling your intelligence services. look what happened with ukraine. look at what happened in syria, when your spies cooperated with terrorists. we will leave it there. democracy, come back to great britain. don't leave it to terrorists to do what they are doing without controlling the british people. sergei markov, thank you forjoining us. that was sergei markov speaking earlier from minsk. now, good news if you work in a certain aircraft factory in lancashire — not so good maybe if you live in yemen. as saudi arabia's crown prince, mohammed
