media outlets of the u.n. general assembly gathered to cover speeches from world leaders last week but when the biggest countries left the show so did the media leading other nations to talk to an empty room r.t. is very important i found out just who was listening. an international circus of political power. a public stress for new yorkers. reporters secret service and barricades three signs of world leaders are crammed inside one building for the annual united nations general assembly debate. this diplomatic gathering provides more than one hundred ninety countries an opportunity to promote their foreign policy agenda but generally it's always the same voices now is the time to build the trust dominating the states and identifying those responsible in the september eleventh attacks journalists flew in from all over the world to cover the seven day event with people who have endured too much more but

once the richest and strongest finished pledging their promises. the press prematurely concluded their coverage. of so i think you know what you see what. you know the. mainstream media pulled the plug on this international story friday evening with more than one hundred and twenty nations yet to speak by live trucks and most police presence nations like palestine congo in mongolia were left addressing half empty our torrijos by monday when cuba's spoke of suffering under us and argos camera outside the un along to a tourist between two thousand and twenty five hundred journalists were accredited at the un for the general assembly debates and when u.s. president barack obama was here the room i'm standing in with. when he laughed he took all the media attention with him now only

a handful of journalists are left to report about all the other countries that are addressing the international body the poorest leaders took to the podium campaigning for climate change and the scene inside the un media center spoke volumes less than ten reporters. and garbage cans overflowing with on recycled rubbish. that you see here today also reflects that the u.n. suddenly doesn't draw as much attention. you know global governance seems to have so many challenges to address. to some extent there's a lot of difficulties addressed in those challenges the first maybe garnering respect from its host country nearly seventy percent of americans think the u.n. does a lousy job in solving global problems maybe they should move it somewhere else maybe going as ireland where nobody would be affected by it you know it's definitely inconvenient for everyone however most of the world criticizes americans for

neglecting to understand local problems we only know what we hear we don't know exactly what's going. on oh that's good or bad i mean. we should know we should we should be you know the same for everyone if not the united nations may remain a place where everyone continues to talk and neglects to listen arena portnoy party new york this year has seen its fair share of national disasters from a destructive earthquake in haiti wildfires in russia to massive floods in pakistan a country should not be alone fighting these catastrophes as russia's emergencies minister tells us a little later. of course we analyze all our work we exchange experience and advice with our western colleagues i would like everyone to realize that such disasters are not nation specific catastrophes know no borders customs nationalities or religion this is perhaps the most important lesson we should learn from this situation we should learn to consolidate our

efforts to join forces to give a helping hand to each other and to do our job efficiently and that's. very new. and you can watch our full interview with russia's emergencies minister in an hour here on r.t. . tens of thousands of people have marched across york outraged that their government's decision to impose a staring measures to pay off massive debts brossel saw the largest rally around the e.u. have quaters was demonstrators carrying balloons banners and blowing whistles people around you were told in the government street sure steve jobs wages and pensions trade unions expressed theory that workers had to pay for the bank's mistakes warning that a staring mission was lead to more unemployment david campbell that a man a member of the european parliament blames the euro for most of the continent's current economic troubles. i think the euro is teetering on the edge this is

a manifestation of it this is a massive problem and you can throw hundreds of billions that is they're trying to do but it's beyond that i mean the real underlying problem is you're trying to force together all these different types of column is some a doing very well others are very weak and you cannot force them together under one common currency called the euro the euro's a problem it's just unsustainable this as a say you know they're throwing hundreds of billions of euros that's here and the germans are paying through the nose and you know the majority of germans now want to leave the euro and that's conceivable that we recreate all the national currency is for certain strong currencies leave all that we currently want all the other. well switzerland's finance minister was caught in a fit of giggles when he was addressing parliament on the import of dried meat layer economy expert next kaiser gives his take on what was so funny. i think this is indicative of the global state of finances around the world but i think all

these guys who are in charge of government finances in one way or another are having a collective nervous breakdown finance ministers on the verge of a nervous breakdown but the other point i think needs to be made is that the bank of international settlements also located in switzerland they have taken a look at their vaults and they're taking a look at what they own for collateral that is the basis for the global currency markets and global central banking system and what they see is a mountain of beef jerky. it's all collateralized by beef jerky beef jerky is the defacto global currency today that's what this guy knows that's why he's laughing. and watch the cars report in just fifteen minutes time here in r.t.e. . fifteen suspected militants have been killed in two separate counter terror operations in russia's southern republican doug stone tab the kill terrorists were sealed off in a private house relatives of the militants were asked to persuade them to surrender

collapsing and dragging down the world economy just as it was recovering from recession but a bailout package later and i'm first started to focus their attention on the other big problem the precarious state of the u.s. economy over the summer what happened was that the markets felt focus very much on the concerns of a double digit in the u.s. and the fact that actually german growth was coming through very strongly and actually they were quite slow to realize that the sovereign crisis in the yours had never actually gone away spreads were actually rising over the summer particularly in august when we had all the concerns coming through about the cost of resolving the financial sector crisis it all and and i think now we're in a situation where the markets realize this isn't a one year problem it's a multi-year problem while europe is busy cutting its way out of crisis much to the displeasure of public sector workers and the data from the u.s. is anything but comforting investors are looking for the next growth areas top of

that list appears to be the bric countries brazil russia india and china but other strong enough to perform well if the developed nations start going into reverse again at least one analyst thinks not if indeed there is a second wave the second in the u.s. so europe markets will not be able to sustain that growth why do was say that is that because of a large share of trade and capital flows still a link to the u.s. and europe and therefore you know that in so regional trade in the merger markets are still very small and therefore if the demand in the u.s. or europe tanks completely then the emerging markets will no longer be able to export their big chunk of their goods will see a freeze up on the in the trade exchange and therefore slow down in. in short the emerging economies do not have the consumers to decouple they will not make it alone but given the moon water and outlook where you are soon europe can sustain some growth in the emerging markets to our food. this is clearly what many
