Putin, Kim strengthen ties in historic summit

Emotions related to the Parkland massacre are re-surfacing as lawyers announced they no longer need to represent gunman Nikolas Cruz, who is set to receive more than $400,000 from a life insurance policy from his mother’s death. RT’s John Huddy has the story. Activists who are part of the Embassy Protection Collective have occupied the inside of the Venezuelan embassy for two weeks in an attempt to prevent US Secret Service from seizing the diplomatic building and handing it over to representatives of opposition leader Juan Guaido. Meanwhile, a special session took place at the Atlantic Council, a DC-funded think tank to discuss the future of Venezuela. RT’s Rachel Blevins has the story. Human rights groups have been outraged over Saudi Arabia’s execution of 37 men this week. Most of these men were of the Shia minority, convicted on terror, violence and unrest-related charges. Gulf Affairs Institute Director Ali Al Ahmed joins In Question to discuss the outcry with RT America’s Manila Chan. Now that the Putin-Kim summit in Russia’s far east has come to a close, China is looking to make moves on its new Silk Road, officially known as the Belt and Road Initiative.
