From moscow thanks for joining us and. Welcome to the program. On the 2020 Campaign RallyPresident Donald Trump has been at it again this time heaping praise on protesters in iran i mean theyre now supporting the United States. Have you seen whats happened in around the protests there are shy i was in the crowd think what is to get americans on the street and the already its thousands and thousands of radios were supposed to walk on a trip. That beat the hell out of it every one of them will room with your truck was referring to this the president said every protester avoided walking on the stars and stripes there were of course those who did the u. S. President also seemingly exaggerated the numbers as well now since the accidental downing of a passenger plane in a wrong last week both pro and antigovernment demonstrations have been staged in the capital tehran was back in the administration have been seen burning u. S. Flags claiming the United States should bear some responsibility for stirring up tensions in the region the government itself has also accused washington of exploiting the airliner incidents which left 176. 00 on board dead. On that regional crisis escalated after washington killed a top iranian general and drone strike in the start of the year in a thinly veiled warning the United States secretary of state said russia and china could be next in whats being called a terrence policy. Picks up the story. In u. S. Foreign policy buzz words are everything administrations love to have a single term they can use in order to explain their International Actions so lets review some of the greatest hits showing to be ready for preemptive action a reset in relations between the United States and russia might bomb peo seems to be rolling out a new one when defending the actions of the white house in dealing with international adversaries of the United States mike pompei ohs new favorite word seems to be deterrence reestablishing deterrence real deterrence military deterrence deterrence is hard to establish an easy to loose so according to the white house and its surrogates the killing of top iranian general qassam solomonic was necessary as part of this deterrence strategy but want to lay this out in context of what weve been trying to do theres a bigger strategy a strategy to this we have reestablished deterrence but we know its not everlasting that risk remains we are determined not to lose that deterrence but the iraqi Prime Minister has a different version of events according to the iraqi Prime Minister soleimani was on a Diplomatic Mission he was trying to make peace when he was ruthlessly cut down furthermore reports seem to indicate that somani was not the only official to be targeted reports now show that a different iranian general was also in their sights but the strike was unsuccessful so who else could now be on the list as the United States claims it has the right to assassinate top iranian general extrajudicial lee and explain later well mike pompei o has thrown not only iran but also russia and china into the mix we saw not just in iran but in other places too where american deterrence was weak we watched russias 2014 occupation of the crimea chinas island building too in the South China Sea and its brazen attempts to coerce American Allies undermine to deterrence so if the United States. Dislikes you it can pressure you economically diplomatically isolate you or brutally assassinate your own this is geopolitics in the age of deterrence mask come and ask this idea of supremacy that we we have you know this is you can call it american supremacy that we can do whatever we want and its up to us to decide who is a threat or not this is really really disturbing and very dangerous i think and its not normal 2 year does come in odds with somebody who is running the state department this is extremely disturbing and im very disappointed that the american Political Class is not speaking out against this. Crazy idea that we can go ahead and just kill anyone we dont like it doesnt mean people are not guilty of things but if we take this principle and this. Approach to every nationality to every country we are going to have a really really mess and i want to. Later in the program heres an escalating nuclear deal crisis with germany france and britain launching a socalled peace people mechanism over irans failure to abide to the accord still coming on the program. Its been revealed that the Reuters News Agency received the equivalent of millions of pounds in the sixtys and seventys from British Intelligence services the spread and he saw it propaganda its also come to light the Britains National broadcaster was complicit in the subterfuge you showed it was dashed to lift the lid on the story. The deal with simple funding for avoid to services in the middle east and latin america in exchange for well political influence this groups were sure that the british based news agency could and would provide exactly what had not his government required then you need declassified documents have just been revealed painting the picture right here at the u. K. s National Archives. Governments interest should be well served by the new arrangement this influence would flow at the top level from reuters willingness to consult and to listen to views expressed on the results of its work but how do you fund such a mission if you dont want to do it in the open nor in the public eye well via the independent public broadcaster the b. B. C. Of course and it was easy the b. B. C. Paid by and had subscriptions and then later on 7 the British Government would repay the b. B. C. Via compensation however it didnt come cheap in fact it cost 350000. 00 pounds which in todays money is millions you see britain wanted to be big but not that big because if it was to be too profitable well then the propaganda stories would get lost amongst the others in going for Profitable Service will not be tempted to put in popular items and leave the political material which is what we want we all know about the icing on the cake argument but if only the icing is sold and the cake left purposes are not served the most the minds behind this were a shadow a section of the far enough Information Research department created in 1988. Goal was to create and spread anti soviet material during the cold war but has it damage the News Agencies integrity and reputation well russia is adamant that theres no way it would engage in such activity today and says at the time it was simply the norm and it really wasnt as bad as it seems many news organizations receive some form of state subsidy after world war 2 but the arrangement in 1989 was not in keeping with our trust principles and we would not do this today so you see the truth always comes out and now the National Archives under the instruction of the Foreign Office is gradually releasing Historical Records that expose dirty deeds of the past but it seems like former deals have left a shadow of whats supposed to be those at the forefront of objectivity independence and freedom from bias shouted with daschle ought to london. A codirector of the organization for propaganda studies told us that a clear cold war parallels in todays news media. Government always made in context the major conflicts and cold war what were trying to do is to get the truth to the public trying to ensure that we have truth from asian. Or not reliable way of telling the truth which is one of the reasons why one is strong and. To work out one would be naive to think that very soon work processes that work to do what we see him on syria and iran receive an immense amount going on and when you have the kind of propaganda underway what was alternately. And really. Well in just a couple of hours a lot of putin will deliver his annual address to russian lawmakers in moscow an assessment of where the country is heading both internationally home well bring you that live of course but lets look ahead now with a correspondent for franco whos obviously quite a big event lots of people are going to be tuning in whats that all about this i dont address. Then hi there well indeed i can tell you that. The kremlin in one of moscows all the states of vision holes you can see the actual place where Vladimir Putin will be standing at this point it is someone else but in less than 2 hours the russian president will be here now just to explain to you what is going on i guess if every once in a while at least you follow whats gone on in the american politics the easiest way to describe this would be to compare it with the annual state of the Union Address by the americans. Pretty much. Similar to that mistress who will be standing. In front of all members of both chambers of the Russian Parliament russian cabinet ministers governors judges and so on and so forth and we are expecting a crowd of hundreds of people now the person in the driving seat has done it. Like you said is this is pretty much the outlook of where the country will be go on in the next year the year thats just begun 2020 usually it happens for about an hour or a bit more than that and even though in most cases most of these 60 plus minutes are devoted to domestic economic social welfare issues this is by far not just a domestic event because for instance the similar events from the previous years you could have shown that putin really sends a strong message to the outside world as well for instance last year he was talking about russias most advanced weapons and we know why this is happening is this is because of some of the International Agreements and strategic weapons and also that have to do. That collapsed as a result of the policies of donald trump in the ministration if you will any of these kind of messages be sent out by the russian president this time again. In about one hour 15 minutes. Or go back to you with all the latest updates. Bringing us the latest from the upcoming speech. But now another u. S. Election another russian hiking scandal for security in the United States with ties to the n. S. A. Hes claiming that the Ukrainian Gas Company at the center of Donald Trumps impeachment was a high act by russian intelligence agents it was one of looks at what lies behind the latest allegations. Meeting old friends there are a few things that feel better not any old friends the ones you have barely heard from for years who then turn up at your front door with drinks food and great memories its a joy anyone whos followed americas 2016 election and is following this one can now be a part of the Ukrainian Company barisan russias hack of bridge made Russian Military hackers the russians could be searching for a potential embarrassing material on the bidens the same kind of information that mr trump wanted from ukraine Russian Military hackers successfully targeted race not russia trump his fancy bare election meddling why invent a time machine when you have American Media a new report is suggesting that a bunch of hackers from russia with ties to the government of course got access to the computers of boris a Ukrainian Energy firm what they were after and whether the got anything at all such minor details are emitted in the report as is any evidence the president leaves everything out except for a smattering of graphs and conclusions but why would everyone care so much all of a sudden about some company half the world away well because joe bidens son hunter used to sit on the board of directors there as the company was facing a corruption investigation by ukraines prosecutor general who joe biden eventually had fired donald trump then ask the ukrainian president to look into this so will resume is at the center of the ongoing impeachment scandal in other words. Essentially confessing to the current ethical question meeting that he urged the ukrainians to investigate joe biden is a journey of scandal involving the president President Trump repeated attempts to get ukraine and now trying to interfere in the 2020 alexion by investigating job hunter by the. The allegation that the russians had bras mo comes from a firm called area one a firm with a mission. This is a message to all the houses out there. Is up there there is no place for you in fishing it is Civil Society everyone is the only Silicon Valley company that has been allowed to work with 2020 president ial candidates which it does big time we have a tiered Pricing System with a little to no cost here for nonprofits schools Small Businesses or political candidates and a little more than a year ago some candidates came to us and said we dont want a repeat of 2016 to all of its cofounders have n.

Promotion improbable gay should all of this russia a bad. Image its still its its everywhere so i i say here we go again another russian hack story. So its filed with the 4th of july turkey for the fangs giving and now russia because for the election season because naturally all dogs good with new tricks. All the way here on all t l polls is just so most people in germanys book very reason would oppose having a man whos muslim its almost always still to go to the break. Thats geysers financial Survival Guide liquid those that you can convert music as quite easily. To keep in mind no assets immune to inflation. Or. What politicians do so. They put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. So when you want to be president. Some want to listen. To going to be pros this is what before 3 in the morning cant be good. Im interested in the waters. As the democrats gear up to officially start their 2020 president ial primary it is fitting to assess Donald Trumps performance in office a report card of sorts where is he kept his promises and where has he come up short will any of this really matter. Welcome back to the program irans dismissing moves by germany france and britain to trigger the socalled dispute mechanism over on its failure to abide by the 2050 nuclear deal starts a 30 day period to resolve the problem after which it could be referred to the u. N. Security council to reinstate sanctions. We have therefore been left with no choice given irans actions but to register today our concerns that iran is not meeting its commitments we do this in good faith with the overall kingwood jet of preserving the j c p o a the measure by the 3 European Countries is a passive action taken from a position of weakness iran will respond to any infringement ill will and nonconstructive measures seriously decisively and in an appropriate manner we dont exclude that you conceived actions of the euro trio will lead to a new escalation around the. Overstatement expresses some hope an intent to save the deal little leaders are really concerned the british Prime Minister seems to think theres a viable plan b. If we get rid of it lets replace it and lets replace it with the troop deal ok thats what we need to see and i think that would be a great way for. Of the nuclear deal called the joint comrades a plan of action was signed in 2015 by iran and major world powers they remain low was the center on limit its Nuclear Activities in exchange for the easing of sanctions and washington pulled out of that in 2018 swiftly impose economic penalties iran then began scaling back compliance which accelerated after the us killed to irans most powerful general. Theres a glass door somewhere lee has reservations about the heart for the cord being replaced by a trump deal from plan. Something that he ran in any country you would find unacceptable of course ailment is foreign policy. Abandonment on the part of the iran to act as the Regional Power because of this to me in the persian gulf. And to give up in this. Business the Ballistic Missile program so in other words it wont be able to defend it from attack given that it has already been threatened by attack from the United States and by israel so none of these things that would demand of iran were able to be accepted by any iranian government so its really just childish to Start Talking about a trump plan to replace the j. C. B. A way its dead on arrival. Deep divisions have emerged in the german charts of his Alliance Party in bavaria with the local election approaching a poll is revealed that almost half of all people in the region would be against a muslim or 50 percent of that statistic would be made of the Christian Social Union party voters the scandal has seen a muslim candidate resign from the race true to resistance from his own colleagues preach all over the story. Mehr all elections in the german state of bavaria raising questions about islamophobia in the regional wing of Angela MerkelsRuling Coalition then assad here had been a candidate for the Christian Social Union but the prospect of a muslim heir sore protest from some Party Members so he is decided to drop out of the running when some party member said they dont want to muslim as a man i was initially disappointed theyre not ready yet i have to accept that they should have clarified that in advance there is no tolerance im very sorry indeed to disappointed. This is hugely embarrassing for the c. S. U. And mr psion feeling he couldnt stand as a candidate based on his faith has drawn sharp criticism from party ground days i think it is fundamentally wrong to exclude a candidate because of his beliefs if he was commuted to overuse especially at a time when dialogue between the worlds religions is so urgently needed something about must not happen the news that mr sarin would be pulling out of the race prompted polling across the state of bavaria which showed that almost every other person would have an issue to some degree with the mayor of their city or community being of the islamic faith with over a quarter saying they would definitely have an issue when the polling data was broken down to voter preference on surprisingly supporters of the anti immigration a. F. D. Overwhelmingly were against the muslim air but just a touch and a half of c. S. U. Voters held the same view the Party Faithful putting out a very different message to that on the bavarian interior ministrys website a ministry run by the Christian Social Union we want a culture of togetherness so that people with foreign roots have the desire and the opportunity to get involved both at work and in the local community then assad says he will continue to support the c. S. U. While senior Party Figures have gone out of their way to show him support the attitude of the grass roots in the Christian Social Union shows that in the conservative state of bavaria at least some germans arent ready or not willing to accept people from the islamic faith representing them in politics that is sure to leave more than a few of the upper echelons in the party red faced at the attitudes of their supporters while germany bills itself as open to multiculturalism well if you look at them area then we can say definitively. What has happened thats. Why the government there speaks about multiculturalism and having to friend religions living together it doesnt really work it doesnt really work if the majority of the population doesnt want to we have a long tradition. A specially in bavaria but also in all the other parts of germany one of the biggest parties is called the Christian Party so its right in the name of the party that religion and the christian religion place a specific role for them. I was supposed to Christian Democratic Union member. Whos been nominated him himself for the bundesliga lection you stress the constitution in germany doesnt hold back muslim politicians in the country you need to say that to sit today or look to talk together sit in one table with a different crowns there is nothing saying or constitution there is no one allowed to have a position or in the politics or government if he is that was somewhat wrong was that nothing could have been like this in order to know what constitution we have a budget very bad it studio and we dont want to put it be this history we are knowledgeable about your country and we need to live more together than there is such a site so that by adding more of the book wadia need to think about it on the a need to open a discussion now to it for all the people that are not to make just the 7th day of all just the book we are 11 country but as a part of our country i want to see what is next year if not if someone has a politics with the muslim religion we have a lot of people who are that we have a lot of judgement muslims there are in the Security Service we have a local in the borders we have chickens and we need to be automated events so what is the problem would be the politics we having also local people with a different background from what you only do in this country are they ought to spend on the up and get a great faith. This country we should be we need to know we are.
