venezuelan relationship if you look back to the polls for example in two thousand and nine venezuela was one of the very few countries to back the independents so all of the sets yeah. i'm doing in this particular view that as you say the nine ball that is when it was a child be. the focus is the signing of a common action late it's a day which will lay the foundation for the areas of cooperation out into the good twenty fourteen day please cooperate into the communications foreign policy cultures social but the main focus is in the ministry and the nucleus sphere in terms of military deals between the two countries they were the stunt and stuck her in full belief in the us. prime minister doesn't meet with things that bob think it could rise to folly when is when there is placing an order for a huge amount of russian military hardware including helicopters and tanks and could potentially become the foreign body of the sukhoi plated jets venezuela is
1:01 am
also currently building three military plans want to build a classical private plane for politicians on the. repair russian helicopters. tons of the nucleus fear venezuela is building up now applause with the use of russian expertise to gauge how weak the stress this is in the east will and it says there's also you up plans to be a building on hold for the loss of venezuela banquets one hundred ten million bucks guy but also what about in venezuela and china so you are wrong to various on the table to develop cooperation between the two countries with the main focus in the military on the nucleus with. hugo chavez is known for his passionate and sometimes binary star how we've seen much about so far during his trip to moscow. where we happen to that would be a big. by the president hugo chavez without
1:02 am
a little bit of fire and emotion with him last night he really didn't mince his words during the forty five minutes emotional speech he ranted at more who the russian ofac empire of gangs of police needed united states he also cracked a rather devious jade shall we say which he felt conveys not only his feelings towards his american neighborhood also the feelings of many of the among good luck in american counterparts happiness that. you must have heard a mexican leader say poor mexico so far from god and so close to the united states all of us latin americans could see the exact same thing our poor american so far from god and so close to the damned empire the yankee empire that has hurt our confidence so badly. so very gay with the typical fiery words that we've come to expect from president hugo chavez he also tacked spades accusation that
1:03 am
venezuela was housing training grounds back to terra saying that that is also another example of the russian and weak show america's foreign policy and he described how venezuela is proud to be apostates of countries fighting against the impression of america's foreign policy he reiterated the closeness with which he recalls his relationship with russia in that fight so uncertain just as an example of how important moscow is to caracas this particular visit the ninth as we've been saying to moscow isn't the first stop on this very inclusive twelve day international through that president hugo chavez down barking on off to moscow he'll head on to all the eastern european countries as well as several countries within the middle east including the libya underground. and of course we'll have more on this earth throughout. the day out of habit thank you for now for that.

one in ten germans apparently believe that country needs a new future a word which each least translates as a strong leader and a less democratic parliament and a study by the greek foundation found that a quarter of those polled and sympathise with nationalistic all racist sentiments claims this is me another group of voters from the far right doesn't reflect realise that you can run many germans what looks like a mob law is in of the views a third said or in the should be sent home if it wasn't enough would one of the six said jews have too much power. and do the study says all right thank you so deep rooted in german society. to study shows that there is. education in some parts of society secondly people always especially in times of crisis such for
1:05 am
scapegoats for their own political economic or social deprivation dissemination of all things together points us to the actually important thing which is democracy itself is nothing so fulfilling or which is always there or something we have in the world without doing something for it so we have to fight for democracy every time and every day and yet that's actually what this results show us there is a rising which is probably influenced by the economic crisis from two thousand and eight but on the other hand this rise from two thousand and eight to two thousand and ten we did this study in two thousand and eight as well isn't that important important is that we have this high percentage of right just extremist attitudes all over the time since two thousand and two when we started to studies that in general everybody could be affected by these attitudes which means that it doesn't
1:06 am
matter whether you are voting for a right to stay extremist party or the social democrats or even the leftist party all these people can have these attitudes. on the way in a few minutes why cash talks in court when it comes to getting justice in america investigates why the u.s. lags behind other developed nations in terms of their legal access plus. the signals of the hunting season in britain hunted all over russia but also money for the local forestry commission licenses to shoot pool there. i mean even bear. as join our close up team in a traditional russian hunt. that's just ahead. of us reports based on interviews with former detainees says afghan prisoners were abused at a secret military detention center in afghanistan it claims include strip searches
1:07 am
sleep deprivation and a lack of food some data from this year despite president obama's pledge to clean up prison practices on this for marty's going to church again. it's important to remember that those detainees are not the first ones to report about this secret prison at the american military base in afghanistan were all sorts of different sorts of abuses were reportedly going on we've heard about this alleged so-called black jail before but a us foundation that is the open society foundations bracing for globe a half recently interviewed eighteen former detainees and their descriptions perfectly coincide with earlier reports of this black jail in of ghana is that they're saying that the cells were so cold that it was like cold steeping in the fridge also they had bright lights on twenty four seven they're saying they were given food that was impossible to eat also they were unable to practice their religion while most claim they had been detained in those conditions for once all
1:08 am
the u.s. rules for detention set a limit of two weeks anyway if those accusations are true then it clearly violates u.s. rules u.s. and international laws on detention which political implications of this could be even more upsetting because we know when obama became president he claimed a very tough stance against inhumane detention conditions at american military prisons he wanted to shut down the reason. but it never came true he also pledged improvements in detainee conditions in of galveston's some improvements have been seen like reporters were allowed to teens who are the main detention facility in of ghana stand the red cross was granted a better access to the detainees there have been seen in certain reforms carried out since two thousand and nine but what is interesting how few of those interviewed by this foundation for this recent report on abuses in afghanistan are saying they were detained after the changes the reforms had been implemented that could cast a shadow on the obama administration's widely popular detention reforms so despite
1:09 am
the announced changes there's not much disclosure on what's going on at some classified detention detention sites there. well some other stories dominating world headlines today it's many a day since the thirty three chilean miners were rescued from their underground to deal with three of them already leaving his battle the workers are reportedly in good shape despite having spent more than two months in a way. but millions watched the rescue which ended up in the underground and truculence in history. iran's president has wrapped up his controversial trip to lebanon having stood up in the oceans in israel and the u.s. over his growing support for military keep his below before ending the visit mahmoud ahmadinejad met the group's leader reportedly handed him a gun that was taken from an israeli soldier. and lashed out at israel saying zionists will be defeated for historic increase from. his comments were made just

kilometers away from the border with israel sparking protests there criticism of. the u.n. says troops in the democratic republic of congo are raping and killing civilians in an area plagued by cement opponents two months ago the alleged attacks took place in a mining region where the president had sent thousands of soldiers to reduce government control a senior u.n. envoy is urging the government to investigate and deploy police to protect civilians. tropical storm paula has hit cuba bringing heavy rains and strong winds over one hundred people have been evacuated to higher ground as a precaution more rain is expected and that's likely to cause floods and landslides in the area as artie's high above that it's still really devastated parents two years ago. the u.s. is being ranked the lowest for providing proper access to justice for civilians
1:11 am
compared to ten other developed countries a study says it's mainly wealthy americans who get the privilege of having the legal system behind them all t's preassure takes a look at why the civil justice system is out of reach for the average american. the united states of america land of freedom and equality a place where all citizens have equal access to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness for us to try to make sure maintains their liberty in the freedom that you had in the past not if you ask the tea partiers and while many might wonder what exactly they've been complaining about it looks like they might be on to something according to a new report by the world justice project the united states ranks the lowest out of eleven developed countries when it comes to access to civil justice and less than one in five low income americans gets the legal assistance they need wealthier people get good lawyers private lawyers they get out of whatever they were accused
1:12 am
of and the same accusation against a low income person of color will lead them to jail for lengthy periods of time and it looks like the good old u.s. of a doesn't stack up when it comes to other factor is either out of the nine factors that the project looked into from absence of corruption to limited government power to an effective criminal system the united states ranked seventh or below out of eleven countries in all areas except for one but then we really need a report to prove that the united states isn't all it's cracked up to be let's take a look at the justice system it's not just low income americans that don't have access to legal services many argue that african-americans are unfairly prosecuted to the states we have this terrible problem with american bigotry racism bigotry class bigotry within the system a system not in next in the system a white capital supremacy where we still have a large part of the population celebrating that white people are superior to black
1:13 am
people every day americans witness shocking stories of police brutality and police departments across the country are shelling out sometimes up to one billion dollars as is the case in new york city to settle cases. many having to do with brutality everybody interacts with the police and you think that they are there to serve and protect us but you know police officers need to understand that they swear an oath to the cost of tuition and the number one important factor they should provide in their job is constitutional protection for the citizens of this country i think that's been lost and what about limited government powers the united states ranks ninth out of the eleven developed countries when it comes to that the national legal and policy center recently found that the white house might be spying on americans on facebook twitter and other social media websites and not too long ago president obama resigned the patriot act that allows the government to spy on americans and seize personal records and private data in the name of homeland
1:14 am
security we now know and the federal government has admitted that homeland security's main focus is not. caves in central asia the main focus is antiwar activists quakers conservatives libertarians land rights activist anti g.m.o. activist it's measurably everybody and while the united states wages wars abroad to bring freedom and democracy to other countries many say it need not look beyond its own borders to find problems to solve and here we are going around the world bombing and invading other countries to bring democracy to them when we really should be focusing on improving our democracy here at home i have an irony that may just contradict what the united states was founded on preassure either party washington d.c. time now it's getting closer to the post you may not yet have discover it.
1:15 am
yes this time five hundred kilometers northwest of moscow in. and it's a thousand years of history the city has been witness to both soaring wealth and devastating. the only invasion now the thousands of tourists who visit each year deep into its rich history. that is there to see them. from berry picking to vodka drinking to game plan to grow a lot of russian traditions the most fun and comprehensible and almost all of the traditions are widely practiced. living off the land every morning at dawn the woman everyone had called the masha berrien mushroom picking this brings in more money than her pension. if people want to live in doing this they can tell me it's not to work at all in the forest diary legs she hands have baking
1:16 am
scotto but dealing with the lobby of a pregnant woman a ploy you know an assault to jam making as a home business she thought people would want to completely unnatural no cooking no additives often no sugar one recipe hasn't changed but now she employs dozens of people and has jammed all sold all over a. large scale agriculture was in decline here in the countryside often the people i employ have no other way to make a living so i go as painted says she was a child she sees herself as a chronicle of a country life but the slowly disappearing as more and more people move to urban areas. my heart breaks sometimes when i see the crumbling houses and the lonely old people people don't put as much of themselves into the places where they live now a days but this quiet decline goes well with the cool delicate nature of the place . north everybody enjoys the outdoors in quiet contemplation.
1:17 am
a third with signals the start of the hunting season and brings in hunters all over russia but also money for the local forestry commission for licenses to shoot for their buck i mean even bear. the fun is carefully choreographed shooters take up positions on a range several hundred feet away from each other then at the beach and there's the woods on the other side when his dog detect the sense they begin to chase the animal flushing him out and presenting an easy target for the shooters. well at least in theory on this occasion nature spared its offspring and after three drives no game was killed and the group that knew was more than well you can never guess the hunt is a hunt but the forest they are teaming with animals so the hump is very big as a fisherman leave the woods allow nature to rule over its domain but tomorrow they
1:18 am
will return because whatever cities offer its nature they still depend on you there are no property numbered region. now the russian word perestroika became the word in the west for heralding so reform but it was derided at home for the pain it caused more than a decade after mikhail gorbachev's unstoppable changes were set in motion we look at the reality of living through one of the country's most haven't periods. seventy years of the red machine would show real people wanted to believe in the. law is it possible to change the country's regime so politically.
1:19 am
people's minds. yes that's on the way in about ten minutes time stephanie joins us now for a business update and news that grain prices are continuing to rise step yes kerry in fact the price of corn has just seen its biggest one day jump in thirty years i'll have more on a potential food crisis a bit later in the tent but first a group of top fund managers says the global economy is risking doomsday much worse than the events of the past three years eighteen investment experts say that views are being widely ignored by the media so they've published them instead in the book the gathering storm. that spoke to co-author patrick young to ask what governments and central banks are doing wrong. we've spent the last twenty years at an all you can eat buffet and we've basically kept eating and kept eating and eating and now we're food and i think the problem with is that central banking is all about
1:20 am
effectively when the party gets going and the central bank must remove the punch bowl well what's actually happened here is you know ben bernanke keep up the point where we got to one minute to midnight instead of closing the party dine he brought everybody inside locked them up and pushed their faces into the punch bowl and made them drink more and therefore it's very very difficult because really we have a fundamental problem because actually the central bankers themselves are ultimately being controlled by the politicians i mean i realize we have this sort of rather elegant concept that they're politically independent but ultimately they're appointed by politicians they have to deal with politicians every day of their lives and therefore they are to some greater or lesser degree controlled by them and i think that's clearly evident for example when we look at mr tree shay at the european central bank he's very capable he's making it clear statements which i think have been the right time policy but then ultimately he's been undermined by the government's hold all around him the us is now has announced
1:21 am
a new way of course to say while you're withdrawing. this is done that this approach this is how difficult of all we've got ben bernanke the helicopter ben as i think he'll go out on history he's going to quantities of liens anything he possibly can but i think one of the most important things we have to look at is also the fact of not just what the banks are doing in one direction but actually what the banks are demanding and i think it's interesting that for example when portugal decided it needed to be bailed out one of the large supranational banks doing well they're not taking their paper they're actually demanding gold so they want hard fixed assets and that's therefore rather worrying within europe the difficulty is that quantity of easing is going to be difficult to achieve because effectively they've spent all the money anyway so therefore there's nothing more to spend and going forward if we feel it in money well if we see what they are trying to. themselves again in the way that's the difficulty it doesn't just go away with one recession on less it's a very short sharp recession i mean countries like for example the baltic states
1:22 am
some of the parts of eastern europe because they're at a completely different phase of the developmental cycle and therefore they have got the opportunity to point but in the relatively bloated wealth the large state economy come true so of western europe it's going to be very very difficult to turn not wronged and it seems rather ironic actually that in the post communist world it's actually many nations in eastern europe that are actually better equipped to move forward than necessarily the nations in the west that was young co-author of the got things storm and now let's take a quick look at how to get to market proving asian stocks are falling on friday passes the dollar strengthens and fundraising climbs on facebook or the country is putting financials away on the nikkei following a slump five wall street has overnight. and the russian markets will start trading next hour here the last day they finished let you know on thursday over the chips fall on my six except the brutal and sped by the r.t.s. have a slightly better session cast from under us now with the only blue chips finishing

of the russian government banned grain acts both of which contribution to a massive jump in world reprices it was sad the ban might be lifted after the release of this year's harvest data but the first complete figures were as bad as feared sixty point nine million tonnes of brain was harvested less than in the same period last year and probably believed. people are used to the next so you. have to. i think the international community should go into a little grain or from the start of next season in global terms the collapse in russia's weed harvest is the main story but for farmers and consumers of fog ruder range of crops was hit from potatoes to buckwheat which has destabilized the retail sector if governments respond with controls and food x. ports while currency devaluations prices a global shortage of stable products could to crisis mode you know which not
