And a dizzying display our correspondent takes to the skies with russias elite Robotics Team before the search. At the back. But what. About. The back. With the top stories from the past 7 days on right up to the moment developments as well this is the weekly an R T International a little welcome ok lets start with our breaking news out of the g. 7 a plane with an iranian delegation on board has been confirmed to have landed in the french city of berates where the summit is taking place around all of course being one of the main focus points for World Leaders during their talks this sunday well joining me now in the studio as our senior correspondent. What can we make from this on expected twists to the talks today well there is this much more to it than is being said because this i would say and some commentators are repeating this sort of snub to would strum because. Obviously the europeans japan a very interested in preserving maintaining some sort of deal with with Iran Nuclear Deal which was to paedo do all but dismantled when the United States withdrew unilaterally last year and now were in a situation where. The entire jet with a delegation from iran including the foreign minister arrive to the g. 7 summit for talks with various european other World Leaders and you have donald trump who when asked what he thought about this said no comment so obviously none too pleased about this the europeans by the way maintain that they want to continue trading with iran something that is becoming impossible because of american sanctions trump and his team on the other hand are saying that they insist on what theyre doing now maximum pressure sanctions military pressure on iran to get them to submit and sign the new deal that trump wants them to sign but nevertheless the radiance of confirm that delegation is there and theyre saying that theyre hoping to hold talks with various leaders see what they can come up with whether they can salvage the renia nuclear deal. Mom alleges that no member of the g 7 once around to develop a nuclear bomb also the g 7 deeply want stability and peace in the region and therefore do not want to take actions that could affect it in this context we discussed our various initiatives. Has taken initiatives towards iran i have taken several initiatives and we have reported on them the g 7 is an Informal Club there is no formal mandate given within the g 7. Own trumpet said the 31 wants to talk to iran. France that theyre free to do so but at the same dial is given no indication that the United States is willing to change its pressure approach on iran or whether its willing to compromise. What was going to be an interesting 48 hours it turned into a very interesting 48 hours in spirit rather than years. Well staying in the region capitals protests are getting underway for a 2nd day in southwest france as World Leaders are meeting as we say for the g. 7 summit at least 9000 demonstrators turned out in a nearby city on sunday calling for urgent action to tackle poverty inequality and environmental concerns. I. Used tear gas and Water Cannons to disperse the some of whom threw stones at officers it was also another protest all along the border between france and spain which passed off peacefully the demonstrators say about with the world focused on the g. 7 they hope their calls for Economic Justice will be. Much better and were here to fight against this capitalist system that leads to so much destruction in so many levels. But only time she had to fight against this capitalist rule the world to say weve had enough of the situation thats leading us to total destruction as a species as a culture and to the destruction of human rights because. I came here to protest against the g 7 and the policies of those countries leaders its ridiculous for the heads of 7 of the richest countries to claim inequality is the main theme of this for well at the same time we see how their own policies bring about inequality the company must make going to 7 of the most powerful countries in the world have gathered only to divide the worlds wealth between themselves they talk about the fight against inequality but i think this is nonsense as always for the past 45 years i have been going to this rally and i could tell you that none of this summits have ever done anything good for ordinary people or the International Aid organization alex farmers also accuse the g. 7 nations of failing to address growing inequality in a new report it say is that in the u. S. The poorest 50 percent of the population own one percent of the countrys wealth germany the u. K. As well or far behind earlier jack in food a spoke to date from head of Government Relations about his organizations findings. Why do you think the g. 7 dont work properly what are the main problems more widespread as well. So we think one of the kind of Major Barriers is how wealth is distributed between people across the world and in g 7 countries so that the 7 biggest economies in the g 7 hold nearly half the worlds wealth and actually if g 7 leaders implemented a new tax a new wealth tax where they to tax the top one percent of richest people in g 7 countries an additional not point 5 percent on their wealth then it could raise over 200000000000. 00 pounds a year now thats a huge sum of money thats enough to educate the 262000000. 00 children across the world who are currently not in school and also you to have enough money left over to put money into health care and to fund. Enough health care to save a life or 2000000 people. The russian president has ordered the countrys military super purchased symmetrical response to the United States testing of a previously banned mistrial last weekend that were putin stressed however that moscow will not be drawn into a destructive new arms race with washington or the nickel ups of the i. M. F. Arms control treaty. I ordered the ministry of defense the ministry of Foreign Affairs and other cool offices to analyze the threat level created by the activities of the United States and to undertake comprehensive measures to prepare a symmetrical response besides russia is still open to an equal and constructive dialogue with the United States to recover trust and to reinforce International Security and the pentagons test of a modified tomahawk Cruise Missile just 2 weeks after the u. S. The son to kill off the longstanding intermediate range Nuclear Forces agreement the projectile test would have violated the law to accord which bound the production of certain land based short and mid range missiles. Well Americas Development of new weapons appears to be part of a broader attempt to counter a rising china just this month the u. S. Defense chief said he wants to see missiles deployed in the Asia Pacific Region drawing the ire of both beijing and all of them scope with a look at the growing tensions between. That was quick only last month this ground law inched smoking toy was illegal. Its already wiping out makeshift targets off the coast of california just like that and the intermediate range Nuclear Forces treaty is now part of history so soon be ready to see those in different parts of the world the pentagon boss was even quick to say they want to start with the asia pacific but russia is already worried about a different part of the world to Eastern Europe right near the russian borders as you can see american officials have said theyre launching systems in romania and poland are different from the m. K. 41 used in California Well the russian governments not buying it. But the american Still Believes rejected this claiming that the ground based and kate fools who will no inching system was allegedly unable to launch tomahawk Cruise Missiles now the fact of the violation is evident it is impossible to dispute it they themselves spoke about it and of course the question arises how can we now understand what will be located in remaining poland with the Missile Defense systems or missile strike systems sufficiently long range so why was the i. M. F. Treaty signed by the u. S. And russian leaders more than 30 years ago so crucial to make sure that europe where nowadays americas nato allies and russia actually share a border doesnt turn into a vulnerable danger zone dotted with launch pads when following the test in california the u. N. Security council convened this week the russian representative threw a question in european diplomats are you actually ready to find yourself in between 2 rivaling Cruise Missile arsenals. Are you going to avoid responsibility for what is happening to future generations forgive you for this. Russias present actions are in line with a pattern of aggression the represents a clear threat to International Peace and security the Russian Federation bears the sole responsibility for the reason demise of the treaty because it will be reminded me do you not understand that by your responses to the americans you are returning the historical situation when mr knowles will target european cities from different sites. Well so far most european states have a grade with the us line d. C. Kept blaming russia for violating the i never deal and that was exactly how they explained their own pull out theres nothing that russia can say osho to change the fact that russia has already tested the 979 Cruise Missile to ranges beyond 500 kilometers in violation of the i. M. F. Treaty moscows message has remained the same all claims that they were breaking the rules are a lot and on friday Vladimir Putin had a real go at the u. S. Government for whats seen in russia as completely twisting their reality in favor of uncle sams ambitions. Is pretty instead of fixing and unacceptable situation and returning back to compliance with the treaty the americans have orchestrated a Propaganda Campaign alleging violations by russia as is now clear this was just a smokescreen to hide washingtons own breach of the treaty and its intention to leave it but this will leave 0 doubt about americas real intentions have incorporated the existing limits is now free to deploy previously forbidden missiles anywhere in the world as i said earlier though in the 1st place washingtons thinking over a bold chess move in the asia pacific not that brush is far from that area either but its clear want countries on the mind of strategists and the seen in the 1st place people in the trump administration. Yell that. They need to push back on beijing and a hard way they feel that there are running out of time feeling that china is getting stronger and they need to act to provoke china into some kind of military conflict all the things that involve china right now is really just a bigger is just a piece of the Bigger Picture of political tensions between us and china whether its a trade war whether its taiwan whether its hong kong protests.
