with something much more broader than that is a cold war. that pits the united states against china and when i mean cold war i mean all encompassing trade geopolitical and actually the balkanization into a bipolar world that that would be a cold war very different than the one we had to the 2nd world war so the question is is there a new a new cold war just with a new player this time china go ahead fred. well i think you're right that this is a trade war and shots already been fired and right now the negotiations are really about a ceasefire rather than avoiding this happening as far as of coal goes i think yes in some way because this is such a misfit i do think that this time you couldn't is on the u.s. side right on the china side because china is working with many of the part in this all over the world and united states is closing its doors on many of the countries it james said so to say the same question because fred brings up a very interesting point here because if it were going to get into this binary world here there's a lot of controversy in the middle and a lot of these

everything you're doing because it's very important to the hem sphere and to the united states. thank you. eliot: thank you, susan, thank you. >> hello again and good afternoon, everyone. now we come to one of the highlights of the program, a keynote address by the vice president of the united states, the honorable michael pence. through the 49 years of the washington conference, we've hosted on many occasions the highest officials of the united states government. american presidents and vice presidents have addressed this forum to highlight strategic policies for the hemisphere and point out the critical importance of america's neighbors in the region. we're honored to continue this tradition today with vice president pence. it's no secret mike pence is a proud hoosier who hails from the great state of indiana. he was elected to the u.s. congress at the age of 40 and re-elected six times to represent the people of indiana on capitol hill. during his time in congress, he served as chairman of the house republican study committee, and e house republican council maremen. what focused wa

sophie shevardnadze the united states has ordered a military buildup in the middle east rising threat. nations on a bring. out conflict. of the executive director of the center for strategic and diplomatic status at the university of south florida. with a new round of sanctions on iran by the united states the prospect of a working diplomatic solution to the question of iran's nukes is fading with american troops massing in the region tensions between tehran and washington are becoming more dangerous for everyone will try to push the president into an even tougher stance on iran what exactly is the u.s. hoping to achieve with. the islamic republic and can the renewed american pressure really make. most an milani of the executive director of the center for strategic and diplomatic studies at the university of south florida welcome to the show is rate great to have you with us mr maloney now you have been saying that chances of an all out war between united states and iran are very slim now as no side is really interested in an open conflict but recently pentagon has sent the us

united states is now backing is now advancing a process that could very well lead in most to a by international society i mean there already is a bi national state is what i call in my forthcoming book paradigm last a one state reality between the river and the sea is not a solution but it is. the reality there is one and only one state it rules of 30 and a half or 2000000 people but it rules them in different ways in different zones and that's not unusual for non-democratic states which israel has involved to become let me ask you specifically about this one state configuration which you say is already a reality because israel as dr lease controlling all the area between the jordan river and the sea without granting all the people who leave their. basic human rights not even equal we are talking about basic human rights why would israel under its current leadership want to change that what possible motive could it have to. addressing the problem and the suffering of the palestinians well i don't really think the current government does have an incentive to do that although it's t

on the border does nothing but alienate the united states from the region or the region from united states. a policy that cuts off aid and turns are back on anticorruption efforts, that keeps out migrants and refugees and stokes trade wars does not help united states citizens or anyone else, it leaves america standing alone. most important, it leaves the united states hobbled in dealing with some of the most important issues facing the region, whether that is curbing the influence of china or putting our best foot toward a transition in venezuela. i would like to provide my estimate of the state of play in the hemisphere. let me begin by offering some reflections from a recent congressional delegation which i led to columbia, el salvador, and mexico. this is the first delegation i let as chairman of the foreign affairs committee and i felt it was crucial to make our region my first stop to demonstrate congress's commitment to the americas. i will start with my visit to el salvador. our investment in these countries strengthens us as much as it strengthens them. the truth is, no pare

didn't walk out of it the president united states at that time barack obama entered into that agreement. over the objection of a lot of us. it did not have the things in it that it needed to have and it was very weak it did indeed address one issue but i viewed the iran. deal as a deal to try to discipline the bad boy in the classroom that was doing five bad things they addressed one of them but they're trying to take one didn't they dressed one of them a big one they addressed one of them but. when you have to deal with american families whose kids have been killed by devices that were made in iran we consider that a big deal and i can guarantee you the families who have to deal with that loss consider that a very big deal and iran thumb their nose at us at you at the world and say we're going to kill you we're going to consider that u.s. senator europe doesn't see it that way the fact is that as a signatory to the nonproliferation treaty iran has pledged not to develop nuclear weapons ever full stop what's wrong with that well there's nothing wrong with that if they would cl

that a new united nations commission just published by the university of denver states the impact on civilians particularly children is far more serious than previously thought. the report estimates that by the end of 2019 to have taken the lives of some 219,000 people in yemen. including 140,000 children under the age of five. according to this report, every 12 minutes a yemeni child is dying as a result. a magnitude of the sufferingg is unimaginable. we are talking about the possibility of millions of people starving to death. hundreds of thousands of people dying by the end of this year. and the fact is the united states with relatively little media attention has been saudi arabia in this role. we are providing the moms the coalition is using we have been refueling their planes before they dropped the bombs and assisting with intelligence using to kill children. meeting with yemeni activists they had come to urge congress to put a stop to this war and told me clearly when they see made in usa on the bombs that are killing them and tells them the usa is responsible for this war. th

about mexico and the future of our country and the relationship with the united states, canada, and the countries of the hemisphere. mexico is being governed by the left. think that our our program would extend, accelerate ant, increase taxes, or make atmosphere of hostility about businesses, private sector, or non-north american vision about the future. those were thed main picture. that is not the case. the main goals? the first one is about corruption. corruption is the main goal for is a leftist idea. let me explain why it is important to mexico. , these mexico corruption intimate link to the privileged assignedll the systems by privilege. elections, 2000, 2012, and other years. we have different parties govern the country. we have the same privileged system. it is really interesting, mexico we expected in when we have free elections and change between parties that corruption would be reduced in the first years, but that didn't happen. so, corruption is about privilege. reason thatain explains why mexico can have the , it is law that we want the first step to force the economy and a

this limit and by the agreement. has been reconsidered by the fact that the united states introducing a new section sanctions threatening sanctions but we ready in case the opposing party i mean the remaining signatories to the joint plan of action. do comply with all the requirements of the agreement so in case they do that we. are also complying with all the requirements of the agreement of their plan of action that's what we're committed to and we are going to committed to the negotiation process this is our strategic decision and our today's decision is i stated decision. and our ultimate goal is to have the comprehensive plan of action implemented fully by all the parties. in my opinion. the only practical steps which must be taken in order to regulate the situation over the prevent a should of the g. eight very. remaining member to this is roses well of course but mother will do that they should use the implement all their obligations the joint company has a son of ash it is a very sort of complex structure it to create more than the years to build it in this bill and suitable i

markets are algeria and qatar the united states still ranks among others they are l. and g. numbers look higher as most gas to the e.u. is not liquefied at all but rather delivered by a pipeline that we crossed out against carter our financial correspondent in new york now yes this deal to buy more u.s. gas that's obviously not just about the energy trade but this is a concession to avoid further blows in the u.s. trade war do you think it will work. well i mean what europe certainly will try to avoid is higher tariffs on car imports so this is one of the big items on the table when it comes to the trade talks between the united nations and the european union and so that europe is buying more gas from the united states actually could help and smooth those negotiations a bit and then on the other side it also could be to the benefit of europe it can't really hurt if you have more suppliers and you do not actually depend so much on the gas imports from russia and then for the united states was the fracking boom here we see record production amounts of gas and of oil and sold the unite

the country in which you reside in. against the united states what could you define it because nobody in power can define what specifically is going on except there is a lot of hype go ahead mom and i think the same question that people are asking here as well the united states we hear that. there was something a rocket fired at the u.s. embassy and turns out it was like 3 kilometers away and then within hours iran is accused of carrying out. its by the obvious. for anyone and that iran has no motive to do such a thing it doesn't gain anything by doing such a thing and i think the americans you quite well that have nothing to the iran with iran where it's probably some sort of operation carried out by some elements or a cell within isis with so the. the mood in tehran is that. and from the very beginning more or less except for some people was that the chance for military. has always been very low because i think the iranians . have stated to the americans on numerous occasions that if you strike iran we will strike back very hard and the persian gulf region is a very sensitive

california to the united states. rick: ok, scholars. [laughter] rick: this is what we are going to do today. a class called high hopes of mexican california. and this is an important thing. that is personal. for those of us who live in california, especially coastal california, this is our heritage. this is who we are is in part mexican. a lot of our class it is the blending that goes on that create us and stuff like that. as a mexican period in california history, which is really interesting, we will deal with the big picture and also look at individual stories and individual things to think about. but hopefully you will have some ideas to talk about, any issues talk about, but then also, you know, if you -- one of the great things about history is we talk about the big ideas but we also get down to particulars. part of the class is i hope you spend your life driving up highway 101 or driving up highway 5 or driving around los angeles, you will see street names, things, places that remind you of how california history first of all -- how mexican we are, mexican california. that is the goal

immediate hit from washington with another round of sanctions. from the united states with the threat of its own sanctions while other e.u. nations call on iran not to take aggressive steps. also this hour the vote counts under way in south africa in what's being seen as the biggest election there in decades because the incumbent ruling party looks set to hold power we're going to how divided political life in the country is and the possible implications of the election. and the french telecoms giant orange is sued for. the prosecutors arguing the company created intolerable working conditions that led to thirty five suicides and . good morning from now on may the ninth. welcome to news for r.t. international the future of the historic twenty fifteen iranian nuclear agreement is hanging by a thread after a number of twists on wednesday washington's tighten the screws further on iran with a new round of sanctions that's after tehran's partial withdrawal from the pact the reason being it says to protect itself while stressing that the deal should be saved europe's urged iran to avoid ta

[ cheers and applause ] >> hi. hi. thank you. >> thank you very much for doing this. >> thank you. thank you. >> okay. for the television audience who could not see the balcony, that was about an 85% standing ovation. there? some people in the balcony who i guess haven't made up their minds yet. i want to go straight -- >> it's early. >> yeah, it is. let's go straight to the breaking news of the day. >> okay. >> the united states supreme court issues a new decision on abortion. it's a confusing decision for a lot of people. >> yeah. >> they ignored part of an indiana law, left it for a later decision, upheld part of an indiana law. >> right. >> more restriction on abortion. let's get your reaction to that. >> lawrence, look, i think it's very clear that -- and it has not changed that women's ability to have access to reproductive health is under attack in america. it's under a

supreme leader ayatollah khomeini as well as by to president of the united states donald trump recently donald trump has said very clearly very explicitly that he's not interested in getting in gage in another endless war in the middle east. that danger however is a miscalculation by either iran or do u.s. war or an event instigated by some regional players in that iran has to respond and then the u.s. has to respond to iranian response and then this can get out of control and denby might have a limited military confrontation this is why it is very important for iran and the united states to open channels of communication between their top leadership or at least between the military leaderships of the 2 countries so that beacon prevent a miscalculation or a military limited military confrontation between the 2 countries because if there is a military confrontation even if it is a limited on it is not going to be it is not going to serve the interests of the united states interests of iran ward interests of the regional players because it war with iran is not going to be limited to war w

the united states department of justice used it to produce the hollywood blockbuster movie full of wolf street and to buy tens of millions of dollars worth of 8. different life but no one will benefit more. than i did send it in getting. the one who. so you can say that you know that from that also we know that. she's ready for something that seemingly didn't go on no interest by joel. famous for parties private jets under $250000000.00 superyacht. allegedly laundered more than $1000000000.00 of one named money buying luxury real estate famous artworks and jewelry not only for supermodels but also for roles. from. the whereabouts of a pink diamond. worth $27000000.00 which the united states justice department alleges jolo boards for rolls is unknown. but the former prime minister insists it was a gift from the brother of the crown prince of the united arab emirates but your wife met with joel the jeweler she knew it was a gift from him no no no no joy present that this as a kid from sheer month so ok there's a culture in a belief that expensive presents are given he's a master liar

again the testimony of the attorney general of the united states. how sad it is. how sad it is for us to see the top law enforcement officer in our country misrepresenting, withholding the truth from the congress of the united states. i think it's -- as i watched him, i kept saying what could possibly be motivating the attorney general of the united states to disrespect the constitution of the united states, separation of powers, the right of congress to know? what possible motivation could the attorney general of the united states have to dishonor the office that he holds right there for the whole world to see to misrepresent the facts to the congress of the united states? and i began to connect the dots. we have mitch mcconnell doing his fundraising pitches and describes himself as the grim reaper, grim reaper for any legislation that comes over from the house that would go to a senate grave yard. calls himself the grim reaper. mitch mcconnell, donald trump, attorney general barr, there's a connection. there is an ideological anti-governance, anti-science, anti-meeting the needs of

it was in the u.k. it was a very strong in the united states even though the media didn't like the coverage there was a real anti-war movement now speed up to 2019 under the trumpet ministration the we here we here calls for war and violence in invasion of venezuela of the rand we have the united states supplying lethal weapons to ukraine we have the united states going to the south china sea as remarkably in the middle of trade negotiations here we have a hyper aggressive foreign policy but where is the anti-war movement other than places like this and people like yourselves go ahead medea in washington. unfortunately i think people are so consumed by domestic issues and there are so many important issues in the mainstream media in this country is super hyper focused on domestic issues and on partisan issues and there is very little coverage of what's going on in the world i think for the most part people are unaware of all of these global wars that are still going on 2 decades afterwards and the new threats that are happening so we have an educated public and those who are educat

"learning war" was reviewed in "the new york times" rev

withdrawal last year the united states wanted to pull out of the j.c. p.-o. way to make iran withdraw the day after so they could refer the case to the un security council in order to redouble pressure on iran however iran did not fall for this trap it did not play in the united states court our friends including european countries asked us to give them some time and we said yes because we wanted our people to know that we are patient and work in a calculated way we know how important the deal is and scuttling the deal will be costly and detrimental to the region and the world well same drive is life for us in the iranian capital zain just what exactly did rouhani say. well let's go back just a few days to put into context exactly what what he said what that meant now a few days ago we saw an expiration to oil waivers against the united states of giving iran to sell its oil at the same time the united states issued nuclear sanctions and for the first time attacked the framework of the twenty fifteen nuclear deal to join a comprehensive plan of action itself and in that it sai

budget for the united states government for to 20 and -- 2020 and so forth. mr. mcconnell: i send a cloture motion to the desk. the presiding officer: the clerk will report the cloture motion. the clerk: cloture motion, we, the undersigned senators, in accordance with the provisions of rule 22, do hereby bring to a close debate on, s. 1332, to set a budget for the united states fiscal government for 2020 and setting budgetary levels for 2021 through 2029. mr. mcconnell: i ask unanimous consent that the reading of the names be waived. the presiding officer: without objection. mr. mcconnell: i move to proceed to executive session to consider calendar number 157. the presiding officer: the question is on the motion. all in favor say aye. all opposed, no. the ayes appear to have it, the ayes do have it. the motion is agreed to. the clerk report the nomination. the clerk: social security administration, andrew m. saul of new york to be commissioner. mr. mcconnell: i send a cloture motion to the desk. the presiding officer: the clerk will report the motion. the clerk: cloture motion: we,

united states, in eastern virginia, and the generations thereafter. and they helped us understand what it was like to try to stay alive in the fatal disease environment of the american civil war. so all of the people you've heard today have those other stories to tell you, when you get a chance to hear them at other times. but characteristically, they helped us with our purpose. thanks to them as well as the expert historians at the american civil war museum, kathy and john and others, every word in the museum has been held up several times to the light of the very best scholarship, scrutinized, discussed and sometimes politely debated. is that exactly the right verb for that? is that what you would call that, those people? and we're fortunate to have such excellent scholars in virginia. that is one thing to think about. all these folks have come across the commonwealth to richmond to pore over all these documents with us, to share their passion, their dedication, to getting things right. and our friend, gary gallagher, was also part of this team with his clear eyed vision and vas

only to the united states and you spend more and more money every year so if i may i would like to ask you a question in more narrow sense would you say that the arms race is a debtor and against an all out conflict with another major power. well i hope not but. first of all off the cold war we do not have made just threats around the world for example and more than 20 navies come by team piracy the gulf of aden that shows actually there was no major threat from another point of view but a same time we do have a. incumbent in the situation or difficult time in that for example the united states has of taken china and russia as a primary competitor is this was a release the. 2 major documents one is a security strategy another defense strategy so therefore we are i believe we have entered a new situation where people feel more nervous about comparable situation so the shock i call peroration organization is going to hold major anti-terrorism drills this error would that be fair to say that this trail is how to create a russian chinese military or alliance. i don't think so because i

that effective in its way less fatal kompany believes that its subsidy area in the united states citgo which involves billions of dollars so most definitely this strategic the strategy here by the united states is to choke the government of nicola many say that over the fear is that it will affect even more the venezuelan people who are already struggling with a crisis an economic crisis here and not get modo out of office nicolas maduro responded to the united states saying that he trusts completely trusts he's for it he's defense minister and the president of the supreme court and he's also spoke about what happened on april the 30 years during what the government calls a pool by the opposition that's been led by the united states he referred to an intelligence chief who's currently in hiding who's been very very critical of the governmental nicolas maduro and he called him a traitor we also know that one way though is asking venezuelans to take to the streets this saturday in spite of what's been happening here which is basically the government going after some deputies from the nat

when it comes to dealing with iran i think that 1st the united states is split on this particular subject the president keeps talking about an early conversation with the iranians i don't think he takes the statement of the supreme leader last week that talks with the united states are not on that seems to be pretty well ratified across the iranian spectrum even if there are audience who at one point or another thought it might be useful to see whether in fact they could lead anywhere there are 2 reasons for i think iranian concern one is that the united states is pulls out of the nuclear agreement and the 2nd is that the united states as a negotiating proposition has not been able to put forward in a similar relationship with the north koreans any kind of run arrangement which could lead forward to a peaceful resolution of the problem of iranian of north korean nuclear ization the 2 are quite different in many of their details but the substance of those i think is casting a shadow from the far east right into the middle east and into the gulf region and do you think the u.s. is h

he compares the constitutional model of the united states and the uk. please welcome- >> good evening, when the french political writer visited the united states in the 1930s, 1830s, forgive me. one of the things that struck him most forcibly was the space occupied by employers in the public life of the nation. in his classic account of early american democracy they suggest is that lawyers task as exceeded of the old landed aristocracy. they share the habits and above all they shared contempt for popular opinion. the more we reflect on all that occurs in the united states the more we will find that the lawyers as a form the most powerful if not for the democratic element in the constitution. there isn't that something that doesn't resolve itself through a judicial question. there is only one other country that they could think of where it enjoyed a comfortable influence over public affairs and that country was written. a new addition for the day would probably make the same point. the twin scenes of these lectures would be the decline of politics and the rise of law to fill th

members of the united states house of representatives resoundingly have voted in favor of senate joint resolution seven which would remove u.s. armed forces from saudi arabia is war in yemen. this unconstitutional, unjustified, and ultimately immoral war has repeatedly, over the last year. and thankfully america's elected lawmakers in washington have taken a stand against it. now, the president has vetoed our resolution. but today we had the opportunity and i believe we have the absolute constitutional duty to once again take a stand on this important matter. today we have the opportunity to override the veto in pursuit of justice, prudence, and upholding the constitutionally mandated separation of powers. this is one of the most important fundamental features of our constitutional system. congress andes congress alone my declare war. this is in direct contrast to the way our old national government, the one in london worked. remember that system, the chief executive could take the country to war. not in america. not in the u.s. constitution. in fact, it's one of the distinguishing cha

hitting stocks in the united states. a big drops on financial markets here in new york and a big pa rt markets here in new york and a big part of it is that investors had really been pretty confident they we re really been pretty confident they were going to see a trade deal between china and the united states but clearly all that has changed. now the two sides seem very far apart. if you look specifically at the companies that saw some of these big falls here in the us, it's companies that are china focused so apple, for example, or boeing. these are companies that sell a lot to the chinese market and they were taking a hit on monday. we talked about the significance of these latest moves. it's really significant. it's really kind of astounding. i'm surprised that it's gotten to this level but i would say that both sides are kind of dog in now but doesn't drive you nuts to hear trump continue to say we are taking in money? us taxpayers are paying money. it's not the same as taking in money. what happened is that china miscalculated because trump genuinely speaking backs off this kind

president nicolas maduro despite the fact that the united states has recognized opposition leader one as the country's interim president now on monday we saw that police posted a notice on the door of the building and they said that any of the activists who were still inside would be arrested and charged with trespassing that's when the majority of the activists did leave but those 4 remained and it wasn't until today that they were officially or brush it now so far they have been charged with interfering with the 1st cashier's order and it's not clear if they are going to be facing any other charges now i showed chew over a lawyer for the activist and she said that this raises a lot of concerns under international law because she argued that it goes directly against the vienna convention which states that the united states can not enter the venezuelan embassy without approval from be allowed to venezuela and government and so as of right now we don't know exactly what the condition inside that building is we do know that we have seen a very heavy police presence here which has included

disconnect between the u.s. military the state department and the white house in terms of how the united states is responding or is perpetrating a more excellent tory posture in the middle east but it's not something that is the result of just chaos disorganization or a lack of intelligence here there certainly is and this is where i would disagree with some other analysts i think there is a coherent strategy coming out of the white house from president now to security advisor bolton and from. to take whatever action they can to weaken iran in the region that is their goal and i think they're taking whatever steps they can to do so and take advantage of whatever they can the united states is standing in many ways alone but i also think that it's a deliberate intent particularly from national security adviser bolton i worked with him in the bush administration in his view what i observed personally is that it's best for the united states to go along the united states demonstrate its omnipotence its power its unilateral. posture in the world as the sole superpower when it can actually go i

across united states we have been seeing a lot of active weather severe weather going across much of the central plains here is our next system right there that has been pushing through and with these storms because they are going over the same areas we have seen a lot of rain in the same places that means the flooding anywhere from wisconsin all the way back here to texas is a major problem actually it's historic levels in some locations as we go towards sunday to monday another storm system develops coming out of the rockies and again heavy rain particularly up here towards the north affecting parts of illinois parts of iowa as well as into the dakotas down here towards the southeast though we are talking about a heat wave and records are being broken in terms of temperatures so for lana we do expect to see a high there of 34 degrees well as we make our way down here across central america we have been watching really that area nicaragua and coastal rica very carefully we have a tropical disturbance just off the coast we don't think it's going to develop too much but what it is doi

pressure that the united states is going to bring from the sanctions that we are going to maintain in place and i hope yours is i know you're going to cause a great a rift with europe because i don't think so. you're on your or your a tone here is much different than what i get from the. and i meet every day. with ambassadors from europe and and they acknowledge that we have a disagreement in this regard but they're not nearly as hostile as the questions that you're asking here today really i mean fareed frederica morgan stanley for instance. the e.u. foreign policy chief said last year we cannot accept as europeans that others even our closest allies and friends to term and decide with whom we can do business with or trade she was talking about your assertions well course telling you that bad archways again as much she can tell us to back up or we're not going to. my greenie also said it seems that screaming shouting insulting and bullying systematically destroying and dismantling everything that's already in place is the mood of our times this impulse to destroy is not the us anywhere goo
