scars on the boy's head and body indicate that some party has abused him in the dominican republic he looks more like a seven year old really than a twelve year old he's been as malnourished over the past five years that's just one of a number of trials that the boys gone through and as far as i explained in my report abandoned on the other side of the world twelve year old russian denis has been to mimic an orphanage for five years but it's believed his fate might have been much worse just give us what you might have been taken to the dominican republic as a slave in exchange for drugs or it may have been an organ trade the judicial decision couldn't clarify all the circumstances now we should make speculations just because the boy can't explain what happened the dog didn't volgograd region his foster parents moved to the dominican republic in two thousand and four years later they returned to russia turning their backs on tennis leaving him with a local family they too soon gave him up to a new fridge but not before

a cruel stain. on the other. way they hid and punished him the thing is that he behaved badly it was terrible but only because his parents and sisters left him alone and the house they even left him with as punishment so one day in the burbs saw it and the senator reported last year his russian foster parents were arrested for cocaine trafficking that led a court to cancel the adoption decision and so now dennis is returning to russia the stuff we've been looking after him in the dominican republic didn't really want him to go he said that if he had to go it's better now and well after he was taken away from the airport he was taken to a hospital well spend around the next ten days after that having moved on to a foster care center where have you had hopefully to meet a new family denise has forgotten russia has been out of the country too long and i now have to really learn that language the best acacias going on into. how he could

have been falling through the gaps really and been allowed to have been adopted so it's. not every adult can survive what he went through the russian adoption agency committed a crime letting drug dealers adopt the boy that's the subject of our future investigation but hopefully all the bad things are in the past now so the investigation looking into as was said how he could have been allowed to have been adopted by those particular parents who are now in jail themselves how also what exactly happened when he went to the dominican republic whether he was indeed sold for drugs or for an organ trade or terrible things could have happened to this twelve year old boy who is now thankfully in safe hands. reporting from dumb idea on the return of twelve year old denise being abandoned and abused in the car well a little bit later here on r t the dramatic rescue of ecuador's president who escaped from a hospital after being trapped by rebel police find out why they turned and why

some believe the u.s. is behind it all the details are just ahead. there's a power boost for ukraine's president after the constitutional court ruled that reforms handing controls to the parliament were illegal and reverses laws which have been in force since two thousand and six. he reports from kiev. it is back to basics for ukraine's politics swiftly and almost unanimously the country's constitutional court decided to revert the country's political system back to the constitution of nine hundred ninety six the court a bullish demand mr the country's main court of laws made in december two thousand and four during the election battle between victory and victory on the court which the events which led to the famous orange revolution back then the changes entailed that the country would transfer from presidential to parliamentary republic and

those changes were meant to structure arise the country's political system but it's the nature of how these amendments were done which was questioned by both the ruling party of regions and the constitutional court that that you pronounce the amendments to the constitution approved on the eighth of december two thousand and four to be unconstitutional as when they were approved violated many times the abolition of the amendments is effective immediately. the decision by the constitutional court comes after several months of deliberation on whether the change was actually needed it was proposed by the ruling coalition in parliament but the initiative itself surely came from president ever since he took office in fabry twenty ten has been trying to change the political landscape of ukraine and centralize power this decision is seen as the final step in that and from now on present which has several of his very important powers returned to him.

the president used to have much less power in deciding who is going to be the country's prime minister as he was very much dependent on parliament after this decision you can more easily dismiss prime minister desire of if you choose or used to do so the two thousand and four political reform transferred several very important powers from the president to parliament or coding to authors of the reform this was meant to make ukraine stronger and more politically structure right . eventually according to those who initiated the changes this time this did not happen on several occasions political crisis led to dissolution of parliament and reelections countries need the president to. try to abolish these changes on several occasions but he failed to do that now after he found himself in opposition he changed his mind completely and criticizes the power saying that the constitutional court's decision may cause a constitutional chaos in ukraine the opposition in general is very critical of

this move by the constitutional court. the country's president and the country's parliament who are elected according to the constitution of two thousand and four that means that we are going to demand an immediate resignation of the president and the prime minister and the dissolution of parliament and to hold early elections there is a saying in this part of the world that everything new is in fact a well forgotten old this is generally a joke but it seriously applies to ukrainian constitution the court's decision is final undisputable and takes effect immediately the only question is how soon will the government and state bodies be able to convert to the old constitution of one thousand nine hundred ninety six. reporting from ukraine's capital kiev. political commentator. believes the ukrainian constitutional court decisions signals a major shift for the country. definitely this is a milestone you knew great in politics and it did come as

a total surprise to me as it was already clear that the pendulum already moved in the opposite direction and after the years of constant disarray and spend of between the president and the parliament ukraine is coming to a sort of a new situation where. all the major power will be secured in the hands of the president and the definitely these is a necessary precondition for ukrainian who here in development strategy ukrainian political elite realize that the current ensure stable economic groups you see unless they have a strong power as this decision ensures that president can of course which would have all the rights just to go ahead with the economic reforms in the country but on the other hand if he overplays the situation then there's a risk of another turmoil we must understand that still they have a long way to goo and president you know which has to show that he is really a national leader who would be able to use all those newly emerging powers in of

wise men are just on interpreters past the hour here in moscow this is r.t. space the final frontier could soon turn into a tourist hot spot and has nothing to do with the international space station or russian firms promising to launch the world's first orbital hotel so it's a bit and as the story. they say it's the real deal that's according to the c.e.o. of the russian private company orbital technologies and he points to several multimillion dollars contracts signed between his company and though the russian state owned space manufacturer called energya the ending here makes the soyuz capsules as ships space crews and their supplies to the international space station and bath and reportedly there are russian and american investors willing to put millions of dollars behind this project here's more from the c.e.o. so though we've been working on this project for a while now much of the equipment and modules we'll use have already been created

so we're not exactly reinventing the wheel the hotel should be cozy enough for seven people and we'll have two larger view screens so that everyone can look out of the earth and the stars space tourists spend most of that time taking photos it's a great view from up that the colors are incredible i was station will be much more comfortable than the i stash which is basically an industrial facility in space our space hotel will be designed for people. now the launch date for this commercial space station slash told to help is twenty sixteen and it's meant to accommodate seven people six being a space travelers and one being a crew member leisure is definitely part of it they want to give a phenomenal experience to those who are willing to and can afford and will afford to pay such a high price for an out of this world experience but this type of private public partnership is also looking at long jeopardy on jeopardy and they're doing this and in a couple of ways first of all for the right now they want to be

a supplement to the international space station so for example if there were a number of in the new members could go to this commercial space station as to heading back to earth and they also want to be able to provide services for scientists conducting experiments for private companies and then further down the road one space exploration has has gone a. they want to take people out of orbit and perhaps may be able to take them to the moon and some planets that we haven't been to yet now they say that the cost is approximately what you would pay to get. on a rocket to the international space station so millions of dollars they know there is no discount for this adventure and they say that look it's going to cost a lot of money get things going even though we aren't reinventing the real wheel so to speak so it's going to take a lot of money to get things built to get this hotel launched and to operate it so it's not going to be cheap but they're hoping to recoup a lot of that cost by having hundreds of visitors go into space every year. well

the u.s. is also joined the race to commercialize space congress voted for billions of dollars to be pumped into nasa as projects agency is already working on replacing the space shuttle fleet which should be grounded next year congress also wants private firms to keep up the pressure in orbit space entrepreneur jeff man says competition in space is a good step for mankind but how some voted to follow the senate and the white house got about seventy percent of what it wanted it means that it's now american policy that lower earth orbit will be commercial you'll have private companies ferrying people and cargo to space it means that nasa should work on a permanent presence of humans beyond low earth orbit of means what we go into an asteroid i find that incredibly exciting we have long argued finally breaking down the centralized government space program so it's going to be competition it's going

to be hotels going to begin in space and it's just going to be a call time here that we design for people to relax play and think sort of have a big plate glass windows they'll have you know things to where you can move around they'll have media centers so you can record things so they'll be spiritually interesting. that is the space entrepreneur geoff nunberg speaking right well our t.v. dot com has more of the stories we're covering and here are some of what else we have lined up for you right now. moscow's mayor is shown the door by the president . who could take on one of russia's most powerful position. in the bridges all moscow county as an amazing array of them here in the russian capital all with different designs and dimensions. of the most spectacular without leaving the comfort of your own bitter. and why music is the food of love for these companies. russian claims caring for columns with song and shakespeare

and i missed that with martin andrews in about an hour's time right here on r.t. but first let's check the latest business update with stephanie in just a moment. we've got. the biggest issues getting voice face to face with the news makers. every month we give you the future we help you understand how to get. the best in science and technology from across russia and around the world. join technology on our g.

hello and welcome to the business bulletin russia and the u.s. have resolved all outstanding issues relating to russia's session so the world trade organization that's according to finance minister alexei could join russia is the largest economy still outside the geneva based body has been trying to gain access for nearly two decades president medvedev on a bomb assigns an agreement in june to resolve all contentious points before the end of september the main stumbling blocks of been u.s. demands for greater access for agricultural products protection for intellectual property and russian restrictions on import and export couldn't says the final paperwork will be dealt with by a group what group in geneva. and joining me now to discuss the development of this symbolic kind of research at deutsche bank russia thank you very much for joining us now firstly is the path now clear does this mean russia will finally become a full member of the. well we've had so many occasions where everybody really thought that it's all over the next session is really inside. the way it's happened

. so it's still possible delays could take place. there was also a time when i think either in two thousand and search for truth. by a lot of agreement with the us was signed on w t o accession delays still happen so i think a lot of the people will be cautious in intra putting the most recent positive news flow even though it does seem like there's significantly more momentum now in the negotiating process between russia and w t o countries can you give us your view on any kind of a timeframe night when do you think this will actually go through why i think the most optimistic case this stage would be for all of the key issues to be wrapped up by the end of this year in order for the technicalities and the logistics of w t o

session to be completed towards. the third quarter i would say of the next year and what will let me actually mean for russia i think a lot of things i think will be greater pressure first of all on some of the noncompetitive sectors to compete more actively to forge ahead with product to the improvements but also what will allow russia to dispute some of the numerous restrictions on trade. russia's exports should be a significant boost to russia's exports abroad so we're going to be more specific about which industries will actually benefit the most from w.t. and i think the consensus is really that mostly it's exporters. in this particular case we're talking about russia's metal sector as well as chemicals. and just as an illustration of this nearly half of all dumping restrictions

against russian exports are leveled. the products in the metals sector can return to some possible negative outcomes from membership like will increase competence. home some of russia's less competitive manufacturing industries for example this will certainly be an issue that people will be looking at this respect some of the more vulnerable sectors are considered to be textiles. possibly some segments of culture as the scale of state support may be reduced going forward but at the same time i would say. in a lot of these sectors there is significant scope for productivity improvement so you know in some respects it should serve as an impetus to more

active development also there are transition periods of times as long as seven years for a lot of these sectors so that interim provides the time for the adjustment to take place and restructuring to take place of this major increase of competition from abroad and finally other any outstanding issues that still need to be resolved well apart from the negotiations with the u.s. of course another major negotiator is the european union and there are some of the issues currently will fall around russia's plans to increase exports. so if russia postpone some of these increases going forward then this me facilitate the attainment of an agreement in the near future now so thank you very much that was yourself this involve head of research at deutsche bank russia. now let's have a look at how the equity markets are performing u.s.

stocks have tongues mixed in the last hour after i think the reports on the high strong manufacturing data from china have given stocks and based but the release of a close to watch manufacturing survey which was not as good as expected was down pretty bright. also timex in the last hour the footsie is still making games the docks a slump a stronger energy stocks are leading the games in london is growing optimism on the economy pushes crude prices high and. the markets finished high off to a rebound amid session of congress and after the top performers on the my sex. set high at close also made a decent gains at finishing one point four percent higher. this year's drought in russia could have a more severe impact on next year's wheat crop some previously expected. to record dry spell has caused a late planting and shortened the growing season this means the crop will be more

vulnerable to the winter cold and the total amount of wheat planted is almost a quarter lower than last year martell concludes that fifty percent of russians went to wheat could be in jeopardy from the severe conditions. and not so for me and the business team but of course you can always find will stories if you log on to a website. called slash. wealthy british sign on the front it's time to. go to. market. really happening to the global economy with max conjure the no holds barred look at the global financial headlines.
