Hello youre watching r. T. International im rosana la quinta thank you for joining us. Now irans envoy to the un has said the country is not planning any more attacks against the u. S. As long as washington refrained from further aggression he also said to rons revenge for the death of its top general has been fulfilled after last months miss all strikes on 2 u. S. Bases in iraq president earlier responded to the strikes by promising new sanctions. As we continue to evaluate options in response to a rain in aggression the United States will immediately impose additional punishing economic sanctions on the iranian regime. These powerful saying shoes will remain until are and changes its behavior. The reigning operation was carried out in revenge for the u. S. Drone strike that killed Major General salim on the last week. On trumps address to the nation. Its quite a different tone than weve heard from trump in the last few days folks will remember the tweet where he threatened to destroy not only sites in iran but also cultural historical sites as well as other infrastructure and such in iran if iran dared to respond so quite a different tone we heard from donald trump whats also quite interesting is trump he seems to have talked about continuing the sanctions against iran didnt specify however that the usa intended any retaliatory strikes for irans recent move and he also brought up the issue of Irans Nuclear capacity and allegations of Irans Nuclear proliferation the Iran Nuclear Deal which didnt seem to be related to the current controversy lets take a listen as long as im president of the United States iran will never be allowed to have a nuclear weapon. Good morning the time has come for the United Kingdom germany france russia and china to recognize this reality. They must now break away from the remnants of the urine do you who are j c p o way trump emphasized his opposition to the j c. P. O. A nuclear deal and was calling for different parties around the world to withdraw from it he saw it as a bad deal but he also seemed to indicate that he would be open to some kind of new nuclear conclusion or Nuclear Negotiation regarding the Islamic Republic and its Nuclear Energy program furthermore trump didnt shy away from praising u. S. Military equipment and weapons and he spoke of them in rather glowing terms lets take a listen to that our missiles are big powerful accurate lethal and fast under construction or many hypersonic missiles the fact that we have this great military equipment however does not mean we have to use it we do not want to use it and now many observers have commented on trumps demeanor and how he seemed to be lacking a lot of the boldness and bluster for which is supporters like him for and have praised him for and its also noting interesting that trump mentioned that isis and the defeat of isis was a good thing for iran and left an opening for the u. S. And iran to cooperate against the i still terrorist so quite an interesting change in tone many people wondering if this will in fact lead to a further deescalation of events but at the moment things have been known to change rather quickly all eyes are still on iran and on washington to see what the next move will be well the speech comes off the tensions in the middle east sorted in the past week lets look back quickly at how things escalated. Oh mom mom dad. You. Know. The u. S. House of representatives is jus to vote on thursday on whether to limit trumps ability to use military force against iran and we also former u. S. Congressman ron paul and middle east analyst Ahmed Rushdie about the risks of an all out conflict. Its not totally unlike trump you know to make a lot of noise and then i get people all excited and stir things up and then then back off a bit because i think basically im hoping anyway that he doesnt enjoy killing people and perp right provoking wars but we still have our problems because he still has too many neo cons to run them to try to aggravate things and make things work but i wish we could be reassured that peace has broken out because theres too many problems there and i just think that the solution is something i suggested before it started it is dont go in and says weve been and i say come home and iraqis ask us to leave and i think we should leave but as long as we have this monstrosity of an embassy and in. Iraq its just going to print be provoking you know people to attack us so i it claims that he went in there and killed killed the later because he wanted to stop a war and of course i lean toward a fact acting like that is more likely to start a war which i would like to make sure that we dont get into a real hot war but what prism trump said it looks like that he is actually deescalating the tone about threatening iran because he said previously is that america will bomb by about 52. 00 sites 52. 00 locations was 51. 00 locations that its supposed to be inside iran if anythings happened to any kind of americans in the whole world so this time he looks more calm he actually focus on some sort of more sanctions more economical sanctions. He talks also about he talked also about the nuclear deal and making new nuclear deal sure that trump is actually pushing for a new. Negotiations between iran and the u. S. And also between iran and the allies of us. Well just hours after iran more shows missile strikes ukrainian passenger jet crashed in tehran killing all 176 people on board the moment it burst into flames was captured on video. The ukrainian president vladimir selenski has cut short a visit to a man to return to kiev on his Facebook Page he expressed his condolences to the relatives of the victims people are mourning the dead and waiting for further information about the disaster with the cause is still to be established but here is what is known so far i. Thanked. Him of and well the right side of the airplane and one end of it were completely on fire and i think the pilot made a greater not to hold president ial houses the plane crash landed in largely park and destroyed the fence before then it took off again and exploded and was completely incinerated when you know the donkey was watching the news of the rainy and hitting us bases with missiles on t. V. 10 minutes i heard a massive explosion and all the houses started to shake there was fire everywhere but 1st i thought the americans have struck here with missiles and i went into the basement to take that off through while i went out and saw a plane had crashed over their body parts were lying around everywhere. Is that just to just to see if theres 167. 00 messengers to all ukrainian citizens on the person jews are citizens of canada germany sweden and afghanistan. Seemed so simple really my oldest son is the steward my daughter called me from the us she told me that the ukrainian aircraft crashed just wary go through our states its a run and i sold a video of the plane crash. Otherwise otherwise Vladimir Putin and his texas count have officially endorsed the turks stream natural gas pipeline well have more on that and other stories after this short break. 6 tries are financial survival. When customers go by youre just a place. In elf well reduce a flower. Thats undercutting but whats good for market is not good for the global economy. Shows seemed wrong when all quotes just dont call. Me lol but yet to shape out this day become educated and in gains from it because of the trail. When so many find themselves worlds apart. Just to look for common ground. It is physics physics is nothing but the harmony you can create on vibrating strings but its chemistry chemistry is the melody and melodies you can play on strings what is the universe the universe is a symphony of strings. Not im a person and his turkish counterpart president won have officially endorsed the turks stream and that show gas pipeline the project will supply the turkish and e. U. Markets with russian gas. I guess it is time to say happy new stream because the project has been a launch the official ceremony i was there for and i heard a massive round of applause and it was actually done by the leaders of 4 countries russia parky belgariad and serbia and just how well things seem to be go and with the turkish frame which is going through the waters of the black sea i guess it is fair to say that its kind of a compensation for all the trouble with a different project which is called nord string 2. There was a thorny path now because of the latest round of american sanctions there was a pause and its construction but i can tell you that washington was keen to rail turkey a stream as well however because of personal commitment by Vladimir Putin and thai period 2 on this commitment did show that when 2 major leaders team up to somehow oppose u. S. Pressure that could lead to real Success Stories and this is exactly what mr putin talked about during the opening ceremony. The relations between russia and to a clear developing in practically sphere is just going to be a difficult situation in the world and efforts by some exertional players to prevent the expansion of mutually beneficial cooperation between our countries. Well let me just give you some of the specific details about the pipeline itself turkey stream consists of 2 lines one is intended for consumers in turkey the other one goes to Southern Europe it could be extended to as far as austria or italy but the 1st countries to receive russian nat. Gas through the turkish tree will be buggy area serbia and then like i said extensions are possible so the sea distance of that pipeline is some 900 kilometers and whats really important here and really impressive is the capacity because both of these slides will be able to deliver more than 30000000000 cubic meters of natural gas again directly from the russian port city of a knob to the shores of turkey and then further on to europe where we discuss the significance of the launch with key players novelists. Already was initially starting from the late ninetys was to have diverse nation of troops not resources as you guys. Know just supply security because its important for turkey as we are not just producers so this is to extreme replace the western pipeline. It will pump more than we have received so far from the west and by by what the us or towards use waited to clear it on various occasions that they were they they were not happy about the establishment of the church the white north to the americans would like also to sell their own guys in the form of identity that they have a huge capacities of identity. And they would like to say that if you turn from now this isnt the 1st time turkeys been threatened with sanctions by the United States as we know with the Russian Air Defense system that turkey purchased america threatened the turks with katzs sanctions but turkey went ahead with the deal and now its going to be operational in april according to the chairman of the turkish the bents industries show so the turks have showed that theyre willing to stick to their guns when it comes to matters of National Security it looks like the turks will go ahead with this despite any type of sanction threats coming out of the United StatesEnergy Security is an important part of the National Security portfolio and what this project gives turkey is a solid procurement for the foreseeable future while also during the meeting the ages of russia and turkey called for an end to hostilities in libya the warring sides to reach a cease fire by general 12 libyas u. N. Bad government has welcomed the statement from the 2 president s we cool on all parties to declare a sustainable cease fire supported by the necessary measures to be taken for stabilizing the situation on the ground and normalizing daily life in tripoli and other cities. The country has been torn apart by conflict and instability since the overthrow of Moammar Gadhafi back in 2011 most of libya is now controlled by general holly for half to arm the Libyan National army while turkey has stood behind the un backed government which is in charge of a small part of the war torn pelfrey last month they requested military aid from ankara to counter the generals forces and the deployment was approved last thursday by the turkish government political analyst Chris Bambery says that a ceasefire will be hard to enforce. I think russia and turkey have some sway i think crew or the government in tripoli turkey or no really the only backers but its also important to see that egypt and behind them so do rebel are also Major Players in this supporting the other side and i dont know how much control. How much attention there will be to a deal brokered between russia and tolkien given the antagonism exists particularly with so. Theres another complicating factor in here is the u. N. By government is no essentially only hiding all in a coastal strip of the country has very little control it has the capital yes tripoli but very little else is just lost the major city of sirte sort i dont see the other side. Appearing to be the age of victory backing off necessarily here but on the other hand we desperately need peace and the people of libya deserve peace so lets hope that this deal can be pulled off to give the long suffering people of libya piece. Now act is looking to bag britains highest movie award this year may find it difficult if theyre not white the British Academy of film and Television Arts has been slammed for its picks with all of its acting nominations going to white performer as butter has admitted the lack of diversity book called on the industry to change. I would like to see more diverse nominations and we will work harder in pushing your stream more but that shouldnt take away from those who were nominated this year but his nominations are joke not nominating a single woman for directing or best film no Antonio Banderas no look at the norcross phina. View with the most nominations yikes an all white slate of acting nominees in this of all years bafta this is not good enough he would go again laura says in this the time for sexist and racist nominations its not ok incidents its systematic well we put this up for debate with legal and media analyst lionel and political commentator mo and saw me just tell you something if if if studios maybe one exists lidl where we let only one of the reverse racism studios if studios. If studios made money having nothing but diverse women or whatever was they would do it believe me theyre not going to do something just because of some ulterior motive lets be quite clear the world in which my kids and hopefully their kids are going to have a few tough challenges and some bumps in the road on the way hes going to want to be increasing diversity increasing pluralism and secularism and these arguments about i dont want to one of society yeah stop the well let me off its not going to happen ok were going to have increasing diversity you have more basic needs more muslims more immigrants more much everything sex you want to feel shiny and better phones and better no no to me i dont know where that you launch. But just the idea of taking governmental regulations quote his. Head of heterogeneity diversity and applying it to movies and films i mean do you have people right now are going to want to watching this and laughing hysterically at what were even promo. Look at this and listen i want to see this was discovered a lot lot of you know they are. Absolutely whiter richer less diverse then you find in society im after years and years and years when gene wounding about trying to get better levels of representation across the board surprise surprise weve seen it so i dont want wash you want to go to theaters based upon the diversity of the people on the screen if thats if thats truly what you want not the quality of the film not the story but just the participants then you who are a member of the smallest minority of people because nobody really believes this they claim they do and also one more thing bafta wants to be in the same category as the Golden Globes because everybodys talking about the Golden Globes not because of Ricky Gervais bad has got to make money being numb. One because its so many different award shows that this is their latest entry maybe this will put them on the map its numbers for ratings thats it. And in other news this hour the us democrats have been accused of being too broad a church by one of their own congresswoman Alexandra Cortez who represents the younger progressive wing of the democrats expressed uneasiness about being in the same party as president ial hopeful joe biden. Oh god in any other country joe biden and i would not be in the same party but in america we are well her remarks come amid a growing rift between progressive and moderate forces within the party she was previously skeptical about joe biden and his approach to Climate Change issues biden though says a cousin of cortez and other young representatives lika only make up a small if lively faction among the democrats. And i already know shes brilliant and the other 3 women were talking about are really smart but they are the exception rather than the rule if you listen to the guys and women in your business they say thats the majority of people grab elected we need that kind of energy but thats not the majority of democrats who got like the last president ial candidate for the Libertarian Party often vora believes the problems for the democrats is that theyre on every side of every issue. Most people who are democrats for the last several decades are not socialists theyre not willing to become socialists are not persuadable to become socialists so so cortezs exact position is is not something that most democrats can really identify with so in a large sense shes right the the party that shes in dark should not be the same party that biden is and they do have different positions to what b
