Protests rocked the georgian capital tbilisi. A very warm welcome youre watching r. T. International with me nicky aaron our top story this hour the u. S. President has spoken out on a wrong shooting down of an american drone over the strait of hormuz on thursday saying 2 wrong has made a major miscalculation meanwhile the Iranian State t. V. Is out a video that allegedly captures the moments of the u. S. Drone was shot down. You know i made a big mistake. This drone was in International Waters clearly we have it all documented its documented scientifically not just words and it made it very bad mistake because i didnt read it i mean youll find out and you can maybe youll find out youll find. Obviously obviously you know were not going to be talking too much about it youre going to find out they made a very big mistake weve heard trump indicating that not only did iran make a mistake but also hinting that this could have been some kind of human error we had him saying i would imagine it was a general or somebody that made a mistake in shooting that drone down now at this point weve got iranian officials saying that they intend to take this to the United Nations to show that indeed this drone did violate their territory and the southern part of their country it violated their airspace and it was not in International Waters the u. S. Wages economic terrorism on iran has conducted covert action against those and now encroaches on our territory we dont seek war we zealously defend our sky land and water has we take this new aggression to the u. N. And show you that the u. S. Is lying about International Waters now at this point weve got the u. N. Secretary general Antonio Gutierrez saying that hes calling for all parties to exercise maximum restraint now many observers have noticed that it seems like the white house is policy toward iran has zigzagged and been rather inconsistent lets review some of what has been said from the Trump White House toward the Islamic Republic of iran if american citizens who are facilities are threatened or attacked that there will be a very strong response taking all the appropriate actions both from a security perspective and well as. Our ability to make sure that the present has a wide range of options in. It made this up the should actually take place they should call and if they do were open to talk to we have no secrets and they could be very very strong financially they have Great Potential now tensions between washington and tehran have been rising over the last few months we saw the United States sending a 1000 more troops to the middle east region citing a supposed threat from iran is the reason for escalating their military presence 6 weve also seen the United States blame iran for the attacks on 2 oil tankers that recently took place now we have iranian officials coming forward saying that they absolutely did not attack those oil tankers and that in fact it was iranian ships that rescued the sailors and was able to get them medical assistance and relief but at this point people are watching the situation to see what will happen next trump says there will be some kind of response did not indicate what it would be saying essentially wait and see and that iran made a mistake we got a ryan official saying that this drone did indeed violate their territory in their airspace and that they intend to prove this at the International Body of the United Nations so all eyes on this situation weve got eyes on washington seeing what might come next from them weve got our eyes on iran and their response weve got our eyes on the United Nations to see how this plays out in the International Arena many many questions about what could come next as this situation develops meanwhile europe has stepped up efforts to preserve the 2050 new raney a nuclear deal the u. K. France and germany are looking to unite in a diplomatic push to persuade iran to pull out of the what is sleep. Well there such thing as an effort by these European Countries to try and salvage what they can in terms of the 2015 new kid deal that the United States withdrew from last year that also stepping up efforts to try and beat escalate the recent tensions that weve witnessed in the gulf region the japanese Prime Minister was in the rain in capital recently for talks as was the German Foreign minister and frances announce that it is staging a high level delegation it wants them off committed to on the one hand trying to preserve the deal but on the other hand also trying to reach as the european leaders have said some kind of peaceful solution to prevent the situation in the gulf region from complete deescalating we want to unify all efforts so a process of deescalation starts theres still time and we hope all the actors will show more restraint theres still time but only little time before youll be the most important mediator for the jews like. You are trying to do what we come to diffuse tensions open channels of communication to make sure the snow and its completion is avoidance but the fact is that time is running out and one cannot discount the possibility of breaking out a political scientist on former advisors who wrongs Nuclear Negotiation team cuz i. So as washingtons positions would say ron is failing to gain traction. It has failed to build any kind of International Coalition against iran and all is you know a spate of accusations against iran have been unconvincing to the International Community saw busy i think the world has wised up and is a smarter now and is not going to adopt at face value various wild allegations leveled iran gooding geisha and rallied around was holstein the historic visit of Japanese Foreign ministry when an attack the japanese cargo ships and anyone familiar with irans culture of hospitality alone would know that thats an impossibility and its another false flag operation in that blaming iran and paving the way to an eventual war which hopefully will not happen and the International Community will stand up to the us and its war mongering led by those hawks that very clear record are pushing for and this is the wars of choice instead of necessity. Of course embarrassing ruled on thursday that the u. K. Government broken nor by authorizing weapon sales to saudi arabia the judgment comes in response to a legal challenge by Peace Campaign is who claim that the arms supplied to riyadh have been used against civilians again and british governments are suspended new arms export licenses but says it intends to appeal the decision whether on the story has solid events. Well a significant victory for cats here at the kuta the field after its ruled the u. K. All the sales to saudi arabia could be used in the war in yemen a move for lot follows the quashing no. Previous decision by the High Court Back in 2017 but the sales would move for the court of appeal specifically the one element where it said that the u. P. A. Government with romney in them in a significant way and the judgment went on to say that thats because the u. K. Government made it move concluded assessment of whether the saudis that coalition had committed violations of International Humanitarian rule in yemen in the past and had made no attempts to do so this was the reaction following that judgment this goes to the very top of the conservative party we now need a judicial review in the whole licensing system parliament has been shown to be totally broken we had 4 years to sort this out and the committee failed to meet the 2 years we now need a Public Inquiry on this matter the government should not waste time in appealing this judgment the government should fix our system all im saying to saudi arabia by the u. K. Government are significant amounting to around 4700000000 pounds since 2015 and the u. K. Is the 2nd biggest exporter of all to riyadh south to the United States exports for nates poems and missiles well weve been speaking to cat 2 brought this case against the government and also to its solicitor whos told us that they will review now not just the u. K. Government steals but also all the seals to saudi arabia from other countries this has been a brutal call damnation of u. K. Foreign policy business been a very strong judgment against it we were. And to see action from the government the court has done its job its time for the government to do its job the decisions that took in relation to existing licenses and make the decisions they took to continue to grant licenses those decisions are unlawful and they have to go back and reconsider well in regards to the war in yemen its estimated that the death toll direct deaths attributed to the war is now closing in on the 100000 people meanwhile half of the countrys 22000000 strong population is said to be in Food Insecurity lets have a look now at the conflict of the last few years and the impact its having on the crowds. Well in the coalmines following that who decision we heard from the secretary of state for International Trade liam fox who has said that the government will now review its licenses to sell all of this to saudi arabia but the u. K. Secretary of trade did also decide to federal government previous decision to award those arms contracts not about whether the government has made the right or wrong decisions about granting export licenses but concerns the rationality of the process used to reach decisions as i said earlier we disagree with the judgment and the secret mission to appeal this judgement wont immediately stop the holds the export of sales to saudi arabia but it is a landmark case for fact its a big. Day ella big result and they say that they will continue the fight to stop at least for the arms sales to saudi arabia. Over 50 people have been injured during an antigovernment protest in the georgian capital of tbilisi the capital of tbilisi rubber bullets and Water Cannons were used by police against a massive crowd. Process is attempted to storm the georgian a Parliament Building in the countrys capital tbilisi and estimated 5000. 00 demonstrators have rallied to oppose the participation of a russian delegation to parliamentary session promoting ofa docs cristiana say during the event one of the visiting deputies sat in the chair at the speaker of the Georgian Parliament for the ongoing protest is georgian authorities are called on the demonstrations to refrain from illegal acts and deployed ly a place several protesters were reportedly detained by journalists working for our video agency erupting with hit with a weapon bullets were nearly of my colleagues and they were too disposed to our correspondent rym on cause a rift about the unrest. Seared gas and rubber bullets have been used against the protesters on the street so its been easy right outside the parliament of the country. The police riot police when the once they use that to push the crowd back and ive got to warn you the video that were about to show you some of the pictures may be disturbing c. Really i dont know yet on the. List. Was only. One night we have sources on the ground who let us know that one said the situation calmed down just a little bit police started to give the people water they started trying to help them out and we have the ministry of health of georgia there saying that more than 50 people have been taken to hospitals on thursday night most of those people are from a Law Enforcement everyones alive as far as we know but to get back to what had actually happened there was. Provocation even before the russian delegate came to this assembly for those countries local opposition is Opposition Forces they claimed that he poured in a local conflict with a posse at that sign and what it did happen and theyre saying that he killed georgians all this lee the russian delegates he said that this is absolutely fake news he had never taken part in any conflict like that and actually we have already an apology from one of the deputies of the georgian Political Party one of the organizers of the event who admitted that this particular event should have been take should have taken place in a different setting but the opposition a radical position as we had seen they stormed the building they had sacked the russian delegation with the water they tried to take away their documents and basically shouting obscenities at them in russian and asking them to leave the country soon as possible so the obviously the event was destructed and the president so the chairman of the event he was from greece he could not continue so that by the way there were 20 that again sions from a Different Countries present at the time russians are on the way back meanwhile we see the pictures in georgia all the protests are told about those people who were injured injured already but at the moment it seems like there are only hundreds near the parliaments and the police pushed people back where the tear gas and rubber are rubber bullets and then they tended to those people who were hurt and we have a people working on the ground and there are same people covering their faces with basque or with anything they can protect themselves against syria gas and once again it all began once the Russian Deputy not willingly but he sat in the. Place of the speaker of the parliament and nobody paid any attention to that except for activists from the opposition and this is where it all began at the moment whats driving them very asking for the Prime Ministers to step down theyre asking for the interior Ministry Minister to step down and the servicer said if that nice to be done to keep the peace hes willing to do that but it looks like the situation is resolved by itself a moment of hope for the situation would have come down by the time this morning we spoke to a former acting president of georgia and you know you not think she believes the government in tbilisi has been fomenting anti russian phantom and. The russian border relations are really very difficult and sensitive for you against a site and most of the population now receive the same message the russian m. P. In the chair of door again speaker is this something which is just creating a problem what stability of the country or something which is the just touching independence and sovereignty of that country and it was easy to predict from the side of the government but excellently unbelievable how im competent is the government and its absolute issue reform for me the government did not fully implement offer russia and georgia relations during the last few years so there was no any kind of positive in this the direction. Of political parties. Themselves as a pro western and that right now 2 years they seem. To say sincere pain upset people in their Political Goals and to just strengthen the russian really exists in a serious part of the organ population. The russian president has finished his marathon q. And a with the general public after 4 hours but the mere presence of questions on various subjects including relations between the u. S. And iran. Would like to say straight away that a military conflict between the u. S. And iran would be a disaster at least for the region it would be an outburst of violence with terrible consequences its very hard to predict what would happen in the case of military force being used. The president didnt stop there as he then met with russian journalists r. T. Cause died of course at the. Most like answering questions for hours here in this hole behind me was not enough for him but well one of the 1st things he was asked as he will showed up for a Media Conference was the 17 and the question was whether or not russia is ready to accept responsibility to bear the brunt of the blame for the tragedy that happened in 2014 well the question and this response came a day after the joint Investigation Team of the International Dutch led investigation presented their new report naming the 4 suspects for the 1st time giving names and photographs of people they believe responsible for giving the order to down the malaysian boeing heres what Vladimir Putin had to say about that everything weve seen presented as evidence that russia is responsible for everything doesnt suit us we think its insufficient evidence it doesnt say anything weve presented our version of the events but unfortunately no one wants to hear it until there is proper dialogue here we wont find any answers to the questions about the plane crash and the deaths of the people on board which remain open really people from all sides of the societal spectrum of view of the broad of the of russia have had a chance to ask their questions weve heard questions from ordinary people from journalists from celebrities from bloggers from influences and while the focus was mostly on the internal affairs of russia which is quite expected Something Like russias relation with the United States people couldnt help but mention it heres how glad im a putin commented on the current state of relations between moscow and washington when these but if the american side shows interest we are always ready for dialogue we see what is happening in us domestic politics. The president will always look back on the race hes in right now some in the american establishment are speculating about our countrys relationship trying to find problems and telling lies. Well when it comes to other instances other subjects it wasnt all. Heavy hearted there were more like nolde still with there were some jokes a bit of humor for instance there was a question as to whether or not Vladimir Putin was an alien to which he said no and that was one of the one of the final questions in that q. And a now this was one of the major one of the 3 major president ial level events here on par with putins address to the federal assembly and the annual also q. And a with journalists that happens late in the air so i mean were still early in this race and there were still there are still plenty of time and there will be plenty of opportunity to ask more questions to Vladimir Putin what i get from the prison putin is a desire for the International System to function as its supposed to a desire for dialogue primarily with his American Partners as he calls them a dialogue for things to function according to rules of the world busy order as theyve been established for a considerable period i also detect a slight disappointment that actually a lot of that is not happening precisely because of the attitude of his u. S. Partners in washington who seem to prefer who seem to view agreements between contracting parties as matters of inconvenience to be abandoned as soon as another plan comes along and foster instability in the global order as a result so i detect a slight pessimism about the chances of these things changing anytime soon certainly on the basis of the current crises in the world which mostly seem to be being created by the unwillingness of these American Partners to engage in dialogue. Its quite realistic to suppose that instability is the new stability in. U. S. Government documents have raised questions about the f. B. I. s conclusion that russia was behind the alleged attack at the Democratic Party service in 26 c. The. Didnt the never received a final report from private Cyber Security Company Crown strike which was hired by the party to investigate the hack reports was the core evidence for the russian hacking investigation with more on the story heres mark go see if. Faith is a remarkable thing it can move mountains if you believe something hard enough heart and soul it doesnt actually matter if its real it ought faith in god in family or in Russian Hackers russia also who now after having hacked into the d. N. C. Russia hacked into the pillar of our democracy is hacking and hammering gas currently and we did not mention exactly that did occur nobody is debating that that did or did not happen it did happen faith no need for evidence proof friends ex or facts but as with every religion there are the tracks is doubtless one of them is roger stone a former advisor to the troubled campaign now indicted for alleged witness tampering and making false statements all related to wiki leaks as part of his defense he has requested evidence that russia was behind the d. N. C. Hacks of 2016 so the government gave them all they had a redacted draft report from a Cyber Security company it is clear that the government has relied on the assumptions made by a source outside of the Us Intelligence community that the russian state was involved in the hacking and that the data taken from the various servers were given to wiki leaks the government does not have the evidence and it knew it did not have the evidence when applied for these search warrants crowd strike the d. N. C. Cyber security contractors what is amazing is that the draft report was redacted by crowd strike itself they gave the f. B. I. A rough document with parts blacked out the government does not possess the information the defendant seeks and thats all they gave them neither the f. B. I. Nor the government gordon and redacted version. Why for the security of the d. N. C. Of course cant have the f. B. I. Knowing everything at the time of the voluntary production counsel for the Democratic National Committee Told the government that the returns of material concern steps taken to remediate the its hard in the d. N. C. And Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee systems against future attacks so heres how it is a private Security Company that was hired by the d. N. C. Writes a draft report never getting around to finishing the final one crosses out and read that a bunch of stuff because theyre worried that letting the f. B. I. Know things might for some unexplainable reason hurt their security and this is the chief evidence of russias role and the hack of course dallas has might ask why on earth a private Security Company was carrying out the investigation in the 1st place why it wasnt the f. B. I. Our friends expose would always prefer to get access to the original device or server thats involved so its the its the best evidence were you given access to do the forensics on those servers we were not we were very highly respected private company eventually got access and shared with us what they saw their remarkable faith really can move mountains transform believes politics countries you dont need prophets and miracles all you need is a private Cyber Security company to blame russia the new democrat testament russia did it of course that is will be doubtless and beulah may be one of those heretics you need 26165 g. Or you officers appear to have still in thousands of emails and attachments which were later released by weaker weeks in july 26th seen now odd hate to be accused of blasphemy but perhaps a little more investigating would be helpful alternatively russia did it so it is written blessid be the word of crowd strike men. Former cia officer ray mcgovern told us he believes the d. N. C. Invented the russia hacking story as a distraction to the wiki leaks revelations theres not actual basis for the russian akki you know to the d. N. C. Computer and now we know that the f. B. I. Went out went along with very serious evidence evidence with no chain of custody evidence incompleted redacted big game rules this so assume as the democrats realized that julian signage had these messages they composed a cover story which Julian Assange released those emails went to the press the press was a willing a car pools and they said look the russians the russians did it and so the headlines were not close in steeles nomination from suitors but rather the russians hacked one of the russians say why this is an act of war it worked like a charm i call it a magnificent distraction. Facebooks plans to launch a new crypto currency next year to be causing growing unease in washington the u. S. Senates Banking Committee has announced it will hold hearings next month in an attempt to understand how libor will work and the potential risks it poses the social media giant says it hopes the Digital Currency which will be backed by assets will offer an efficient means of payments with low transaction Fees Initiative will also target millions globally who currently dont have access to Bank Accounts critics are already insisting that it must be heavily regulated as facebooks 1st array into the crypto space could allow what allow it unprecedented access to use as private information arties chief financial commentator max kaiser gave us his thoughts on why the project is causing so much concern and its implications for the monetary system. Competes with a central bank and it competes with banks on wall street as a as a fee out currency and it will do a better job than the u. S. Dollar the u. S. Dollar is challenged by libra jamie diamond at j. P. Morgan will be challenged by a libra Jerome Powell at the Federal Reserve bank will be challenged by labor those are the guys who are put on notice if you notice the reaction in the Financial Press was immediate the finance ministers in france and the folks in washington immediately came out and said we need to hold hearings were afraid about this were not so sure about this because they know instinctively that theyre going to be disinterred mediated out of existence because you can create a much better free out currency thats accessible all over the world as a medium of exchange with 0 transaction fees so it puts the u. S. Dollar as World Reserve germany out of business which is great for a bit coin. Chasing on the international this hour went by confetti minutes with all the late. Just driving the trump administrations around policy is confusing contradictory and even incoherent would be an understatement as members of his administration beat the drums of war
