treaty or start treaty signed with russia in april the deal now we needs the e.u. approval from the full senate that could eventually see the two countries reduce their warhead stockpiles by about a third or he's got a cheeky on reports america's in-house issues could still hinder plans for the ratification. the start treaty got the green light from the senate foreign affairs committee and is heading for the senate floor this treaty will make america more secure it will assist us in moving towards the goal of less nuclear threat and for that reason we're probably actually took today it's been a bumpy ride this five months of hearings and the resolution that the senators passed reflects that they put all their concerns in one package among them. the time between offensive and defensive weapons senators clarify the treaty in no way is an obstacle for the u.s. plans to deploy defense systems american officials see it the same way it commits us to continue to develop the ability to be able to protect our people and to have

a robust missile defense system but russians do take the time mentioned in the treaty quite seriously they see the new start as an agreement based on equality and balanced and if that balance is shifted or disturbed they say they can pull out but some in washington say there are hurdles related to the ratification are not so much about the details of the treaty but about republicans trying to make a point to the democrats one of the problems is good old fashioned red meat politics the republicans don't they just can't resist this opportunity to say well you know the democrats are weak on national security and that's one of the real barriers that the that the obama administration faces here i have no doubt whatsoever if we had a republican administration this this treaty would be already ratified the paradox is that the number of republicans who had testified for the treaty outnumbers

democrats on top of that the u.s. military officials are unanimous in their support of the deal something that many experts are pointing out here senators ten express their concerns but they can't really change the trading they can either ratified or not and. judging by what senators were saying this thursday they surely will the question is when i'm going to check out our reporting from washington d.c. . ivan eland director of the center for peace and liberty at the independent institute in washington says the arguments brought up against the start treaty carry very little weight it's not the warhead so much because it is only a thirty percent reduction but i think it's the fact that the process is moving forward in there will be another round which is deeper and also i think it helps the overall relationship between the two countries but there have been other arguments made that the nuclear weapons. labs will go into remission that the treaty somehow precludes missile defense which it really doesn't

and it won't and impede u.s. missile defense efforts anyway i think those are the two main domestic arguments here and i don't think they really have much water i think it's mainly a political thing don't bring them up for a vote unless they have the votes to pass and. the ratification of the start treaty is a way to modernize and improve nuclear defense according to gary hart former u.s. senator and member of the commission on u.s. policy towards russia. it's a large step it will get rid of dangerous unnecessary nuclear weapons on both sides at the end of the day there will be a vote on the treaty people will have to vote for it or against it and those who vote against it are going to have to justify why they voted against it and why it makes us more secure not to have a treaty then if we have the treaty if you replace. warheads or delivery

systems that are old and increasingly unstable with a newer generation more secure technology you are actually improving security rather than in danger yet so a limited argument can be made for modernization of nuclear arsenals certainly not expansion of them if we are serious about hermetic reductions in these nuclear arsenals then we widen the club and bring in all the nuclear powers and say enough we're all we're going to get rid of all these it does seem like. kind of ideal dream but it is a goal to reach for. this sunday you can watch the full interview with gary hart former u.s. senator and co-chair of the commission on u.s. policy towards russia. a suspected russian criminal mastermind has survived an

assassination attempt in central moscow a new sajjan better known as papa has sohn is being treated for gunshot wounds reports say he is under police guard in the hospital to prevent the assassins from finishing the job party's oksana boyko has more from the crime scene. this crime took place here in central moscow just steps away from the prominent public restaurant of was shot several times he received three gunshots to the album and and he is now believed to be fighting forces live in the one of the moscow hospitals it is still unclear how the assassin was able to get so close to him because father hasn't had all the reasons to fear for his life he was accompanied by boy guards at the whole time and one of the border guards is also believed to be in hospital at the moment seventy three years old and he started olive as a peak pocket but later on in his library has some serious stuff he spent about two thirds of his life behind bars and back in the knowledge and eighty's he was

promoted to the rank all thieves by the code this is an exclusive group of russian criminals a sort of we will end all of the ranks of godfather and the taliban mafia but her son was believed to be responsible for criminal gangs to aim the russia south but over the past two years his influence has significantly grown especially after the killing all features lot even called better known as the punchy gloss tear after the funeral if you want your president medvedev told the law enforcement as you step of the fight against organized crime and to upper hand as many things by the code as possible but unfortunately he's the calls are yet to be seated the shoot out attracted attention above only police obviously but also people who look like they may have been working with papa haasan we have seen numerous cars driving cars the crime scene of some very suspicious people mostly

a man in sporting suits with camo came to the crime scene talk to somebody over the phone and leave it's no surprise because probably her son was very very influential figure in her russia's criminal on the wall because of his influence and because of his high rank he has an ability to commit crimes and to influence criminals without getting his hands dirty. and the next hour i will bring you the story of the caribbean island of case widely occupied by the u.s. navy at. least. for the military presence which occupies almost two thirds of the instruments and overshadows the people's everyday lives. of all the sound so people could use their lack of sleep. is worth every bit of struggle.

u.s. president barack obama is pushing forward on plans to double u.s. exports in the next five years a move that could generate up to two million jobs the report was to help the u.s. the troubled u.s. economy and comes amid claims that the country is recovering from the global financial crisis but with poverty among the working population at a fifteen year high millions of americans are still fighting for survival. welcome to silk city. this once was what the industrial revolution looked like in the united states. now this is what poverty looks like in this town more than twenty percent are poor more than seventeen percent unemployed it means for many here ninety m. is it time to go to work. it's time to head to the food pantry for charity so that. they are

low income folks some of them have been unemployed for almost two years is what we're seeing but on average it's the underemployed. there are people who can't make ends meet people like jenny like you i'm the only one working in the time it's not enough you know it's just not enough to get all the food we need and the numbers are only growing and we saw in two thousand and nine a fifteen percent increase over two thousand and eight numbers and we're anticipating that that number will go up by another ten percent at the end of two thousand and thirteen jenny can't afford to buy food for her mother and three year old son not with only use them public assistance is just not enough money and a part time job they don't need any more hours than i've been looking for a job then there's just hard to find work and it only appears to be getting worse it is unfortunately not only here but in the entire us new statistics for two thousand and nine show forty three million people one in seven are living in poverty this is the most people who are in more than fifty years that's

a. they first began tracking these numbers here you can see one reason why the particular views are few and far between especially in the old urban industrial cities art patterson as in so many cities in the united states manufacturing used to power this one these were still factories that now are decrepit boarded up sitting in disrepair there are signs everywhere here of the u.s. manufacturing jobs that have disappeared or gone overseas factory work all of the low level jobs that these folks with most meals are sort of out in the cold. and leaving them lining up in droves for a little heat we now see prepare about twelve hundred meals a day now it will be serving about four hundred people. a free hotline some of the workers who are some are at the homeless not surprisingly. there are twenty percent more mouths to feed here eva's kitchen than

a year ago why. now and some can't work like for one who has an incurable disease lose not for work or health for so many of us used to be a truck driver yet he still can't afford lunch and experts say the needy are needier than ever are they more poor yes that i can say and here on the ground for from washington and wall street there is no sign of an economic recovery for these people in sight i don't see recovery now they have no thanks for their politicians i don't know what's going on with the dollar i don't know was the president or. for me is the snow blower better. his life in the urban decay of silk city gratitude is reserved for the help with recovery they do know. now you share your very carefree morning mr r. t.

patterson new jersey. stay with us here on r t coming up later our discussion show cross talk on the table this time the emergence of china on the international stage host peter lavelle's guests are ready to share some insights into the reasons driving the country's rapid growth it's not so much the chinese want to be thought . the chinese want to be humiliated you know they speak of the hundred years of humiliation the japanese invasion the opium wars you know from the outside world and they just are so sensitive about this this kind of humiliation that they want to move through to get on the other side of that's what drives them in here rather than going to be well thought of which they do two or another level but deep down it's no more humiliating.

a chance to experience the riches of this island firsthand alexei is here guy. this time we're looking into the and the the resources of the island now before the collapse of the soviet union has not been explored for gas and oil despite huge potential now after the of the soviet union collapsed after russia became a different state exploration of gas and oil fields in this region has been very strong and we now know of several a lot of very extensive oil fields in this region one of the most crucial parts of the. energy business is an energy company located on the coast of the sea which is of course the part of the pacific ocean this company is. liquefying the natural gas which is being discovered here in the region to be then exported to other countries of the region and to talk about what they saw the

region still for in terms of energy resources we joined by the open aeration manager of the socket an energy company. many thanks for joining us and my first question to you obviously what is the mission of this huge project called the softly energy project well i think in the few words to say we want to be a reputable energy supplier here to the asian region and we're very proud of course to have to this great energy complex here because we've seen here the introduction of new technology coming to russia this is so. and then g. and then g. of all that you know to go find natural gas produced here with new technology but a very successful start up and already gone so indeed a full year of operation and i think i've already build a reputation as being a very reliable energy supplier here due to countries like japan like korea and china thank you very much this was a brace manager at the site energy project now for more insight i did a story i did

a report on what are the energy sources the situation is like in the cycling and we can watch this report right now just like most women scientists not likes to receive flowers but this time the red carnations serves as a victim of an experiment. she puts the flour into a liquefied gas where it immediately freezes. and with a loud crack not dahlia breaks it onto our cameras lens thus she demonstrates what liquid gas the phonology is all about that. when an object like this balloon is put into liquid gas of cryogenic temperatures it massively decreases in volume in fact it becomes six hundred times smaller but after a short while when put back into normal temperatures it's volume increases again this property of natural gas allows much better transportation six hundred times more gas than a normal storage. the cycling energy project is the first liquid natural gas

project in russia and there are only twenty like these in the entire world millions cubic towns of gas are being processed here every year to be an exporter to asian pacific countries it represents a successful combination of the russian natural resources and western technologies . launched eighteen months ago the alan g. plant in pretty good nick quickly gathered operational place russian gas giant gazprom is its main shareholder with the rest of its ownership spread between show and two japanese companies it is located in the region which holds top positions in russia in the oil and gas resources and according to the company's c.e.o. their presence here dramatically improved sucklings life when the project there was not infrastructure here place we have not only. a plant by lyons there are also a new job created when you come to arcturus new company is established here.

however not everyone shares such a positive view. through almost impenetrable far east and we went to see the indigenous people of north the nifty minority iran four thousand effects live at the seaside relying on the riches of the underwater world for their survival. and fisherman told us when gas companies put their first offshore platforms in their waters it seriously threatened their life. when the platforms appeared the fish we used to catch in these areas practically disappeared we expressed our protesting got good results there was no offshore platform just over there but after our voices of discontent

it was moved further away. such concerns would have been difficult to neglect by the gas giants now the sakhalin energy company launched several social programs for the indigenous minorities which include employment of the needs at their facilities . the company sponsors health programs and education for the natives the company invests three hundred thousand dollars in its effort most of the program sectors are run by the indigenous peoples themselves. according to both the company's management and the knicks the gas giants programs for the natives are a healthy compromise and an example of how old and the new can co-exist in practical terms this means multibillion profits for the former and much better quality of life for latin. reporting from the region. korean american joins us next with all the latest from the world of business stay
