until joining us from moscow thanks very inside and thank you. one effect of the sanctions against russia is a noticeable decline in food standards across the country that's after moscow's food import bans on the e.u. and american companies in response to the sanctions russian companies rushed to fill the vacuum but quality is often not at the top of their agenda. since the story. this is one happy cow she's allowed to go out regularly farmers. make sure of that there are five cows in his ban about seventy kilometers north of moscow in the coming weeks they will be more. and more this milk is very high quality because we only give the cow natural feed no chemicals no additives you know anybody. cultivates a total of ten thousand square metres of land which he bought fourteen years ago he and his wife produce curt's sour cream and cheese but also sausage they sell their products directly from the farm many customers come extra from moscow they appreciate the quality and they distrust their own commercial food industry a wise choice consumer advoca

you can hear me sandra farmer in the studio in moscow we hear that moscow has issued its response what now. well russian president vladimir putin's mer response means that not only will there be a temporary were suspension of russia's part in the i.n.f. treaty but also that research will be carried out to achieve parity with the u.s. efforts now president putin said that the us the us is lack of support for russian suggestions of disarmament on the world stage is actually causing a danger to international security however he also said that russia will not embroil itself in a costly and drawn out arms race with the west now russian foreign minister sergei lavrov also said that the us has been violating this treaty since one thousand nine hundred since one thousand nine hundred nine with their usage of unmanned drones for military purposes all around the world also had some harsh words for the us as m.k. forty one vertical launching system missile launching system used by the us navy now this system has been in service with the us navy since one thousand nine hundred eighty six and it's

is the one of the reactions you're seeing there today in moscow well it seems that moscow's very much bracing for the u.s. exit from this treaty which which they basically say at this point is unavoidable we heard from the deputy foreign minister today that he thinks it's basically a done deal and russia all along as well as today has been condemning the u.s. exit from this treaty today the foreign ministry again said that this is a huge blow to international arms control and of course from russia as well we've heard recently and all along denials that moscow is actually violating this treaty you just mentioned that kind of show and tell session that we had just over a week ago where russia again said look does not violate the i.m.f. treaty in fact it only flies four hundred eighty kilometers and not the five hundred kilometers that would mean that it is under that treaty so we were seeing a kind of condon condemnation of the u.s. very strongly and also again these these denials from moscow we've also seen moscow saying that the u.s. has been negotiating in bad faith what does that me

she had played a key role in organizing that nra trip to moscow in 2015. so her boyfriend, erickson, sends this e-mail to a member of the delegation just before that trip departs. reporter betsy woodruff at "the daily beast" has quotes from his mia e-mail in a new piece that "the beast" just published today. the former nra president who was leading the delegation to moscow was angling on the trip to get a private interview with russian president vladimir putin. he said that the russian official organizing the trip had, quote, dangled the possibility of such an interview and therefore the nra delegation really needed to impress their russian hosts. quote, high stakes all around. erickson also appears to spell out in this e-mail that the trip to moscow was much more than a gun rights networking event. he wrote this to a member of the nra delegation who was about to head to moscow, quote, as we discussed over lunch in iowa, russia believes that high-level contacts with the nra might be the best means of neutral introduction to the next american president. thi

but for some reason trump has got a fixation on moscow, and this man seems to know about it. and he also might have some knowledge of things that occurred that might have been less than welcome to the public eye from trump's perspective. >> michael cohen, no relation to you, congressman, is going to testify before the house oversight committee next week. when you're listening to michael cohen, what are you going to be listening for? >> i'm going to listen to obstruction of justice and an abuse of process, but mostly obstruction of justice. the campaign finance laws were before trump became president, but it's pretty clear his payoffs to ms. mcdougall and stormy daniels were to violate the campaign finance laws, to hush them up to help him win the election. i think michael cohen will testify to that. he'll also let us know about his russian investments and his ability to get the trump deal and the election. he will say it goes beyond what trump said to congress and it went right up to election day. it's such a fascination that he has with moscow and continues to have, because

but we've also been speaking to military experts here in moscow and many of them are quite skeptical but the eye enough in general they're saying it doesn't take into account chinese military power you have to remember moscow is very concerned about the expansion of chinese military power on the international stage and they see if there's any real hope of achieving meaningful arms control in the world stage it's going to have to be between beijing moscow and the united states working together that would be an entirely new treaty so terry coming back to you if this existing eye enough isn't saved is there any indication how the u.s. would respond to russian i n f violations in the future not yet the u.s. says it's of bided by the treaty so it hasn't fully explored its options and what europeans have been most interested in hearing so far is what the u.s. won't to do and that's something that was emphasized in my interview with u.s. ambassador to nato key bailey hutchison we don't intend to put something new in europe and most certainly we're not even even considering nuclear so i thin

earlier i asked our moscow correspondent erin tilton what was likely to be top of the agenda for this economic conference in berlin well that's certainly going to be the north stream two pipeline which is currently be constructed between russia and northern germany and if you remember that's of course a pipeline designed to transit russian national gas to the federal public of germany of course germany needs that if it's going to see its climate goals through its pivot away from coal and also run the russian side and gas of course its most major adam exports to its only real product that has actually had some success on the world market so of course it's going to be of critical importance for both countries. there what has been worse for the russian economy is that the sanctions or is it the low oil prices. it's certainly been some of the chaos we've been seeing in commodity markets in the most recent years i mean you have to remember russia is and for all intents and purposes a petrol state fifty nine percent of its economy is actually the federal budget i mean is based upon the sale

now earlier we spoke to russia analyst constantine eggert and we asked him how moscow sees this move from the u.s. if they're happy with the freedom to do as they please or worried about the threat of a new cold war. it is clear that in some respects russia will be happy it will be a bit able to keep the end s.s.e. eight missiles that it has already produced as if they a secular state saying it will also be able to deployed were it was that i think it was one of the suites and that john bolton the national security advisor to president drum brought to moscow last autumn when he said ok yes we're leaving the treaty we're seconds out of you but you can deploy them for example against china which is one of the sort of it's a big white elephant in the room here because this is what america is also interested in deploying these missiles against the chinese only adamant that if president putin wants to start a new arms race for the united states we'll know what the result is going to be is going to be exactly the one that happened in the in one thousand eight hundred namely russia rules th

treaty just last week parts of the system are on your public display near moscow u.s. president donald trump has been threatening to pull out of the pact since the end of last year. russia has not heard orchard way out of the agreement so we're going to terminate agree but we're going to pull out the u.s. lead on his control negotiate a has told g.w. that the government is using the move to force russia's hand and we will suspend it and then a six month clock runs if you will during that time russia still can get back into compliance but it frees our obligations under the treaty so we suspend our obligations with the intent to withdraw if we don't get back in compliance but we have provided by the treaty for the entire time and by suspending their obligations that we'll be able to do the research and development of similar systems that russia now has fully fueled and in the field. which russian president vladimir putin has tonight breaking the agreement and wouldn't budge. it wasn't a historic moment when in one thousand nine hundred eighty seven russian president mikh

in moscow the u.s. secretary of state has just said that russia has six months to return to compliance with the i.n.f. treaty do you think there's likely to be any movement from the russian side on that neither the united states nor russia seem to have the political will or the desire to maintain their so that means basically. but both sides are very active right now in pushing the book for the demise of the i and therefore in each other. and that's mostly what they're going to do in the next six months this in the pushing of from the demise of the earth so what can we expect now is there likely to be a new arms race between russia and the us then well there will be no immediate ponza race russia has the missiles that can be poor and now we go eat well not now in six months we do it when the treaty is gone and it makes perfect sense for russia to do that it's basically more or less the same cruise missiles that russia has developed for its surface ships and submarines so it makes perfect sense for russi
