fortunes out of the school reports the farmers claim they'll be the ones to lose out. three years of land but his family barely scrapes by the target and lives on potato soup all year round one of many farmers struggling to survive in georgia though he has plenty of land he cannot afford to grow anything on it. most the fuel for the tractor is too expensive the pension i get is eighty laurie most of this goes towards my medication after i buy that i hardly have anything left over trish what or has a heart condition but still works the land to zing straining his health over hunger his neighbor a mozzie is hardly any better off with only meters but is that get it would they get his american seeds a couple of years ago but they fail to thrive we hardly got any harvest and i know most of the people in my village are struggling with it about what the georgian government has introduced a policy it says will turn all this around it's encouraging huge numbers of south

african farmers to come here bringing fresh ideas and expertise but the plans have been met with stiff opposition in the fields of agriculture and politics alike to go to the census with our government is conducting a policy of betrayal of their own country they are creating problems for georgians by not only strengthening punishment for underdeveloped farms but also by inviting say the african boers to come and work here our farmers will be forced to abandon their land because the kind of afford to farm it they don't produce enough to sustain themselves let alone anything to make a profit yet the government appears to be ploughing alone far on this issue but it's shrugged off all criticism and believes the scheme will revive an ailing industry or sarwari well. i've got a culture. of the best farmers one of the best farmers in the wall they visited one months ago we showed them

a culture of farms. the opportunities what they could have. it's common here there may be an influx of as many as forty thousand boers who'll be able to buy as much land as they want but that idea does not go over well with everyone georgian farmers say they feel they're being pushed out of their land by their own government and south african borders don't know what to expect from the land or people and efforts to resolve that given the distances between the two countries currently south african farmers knowledge about agriculture in their potential new home is sketchy at best they we did this three. supposed to be this terrible food before i remember correctly they produce only ten percent of the. meat but this seat is eighty years old they never heard of hybrid seeds selected with the seeds the first south african farmers are expected to arrive next year and once

that happens georgian farmers who may lose the land that feeds them say their future looks bleak they didn't go to georgia. well you can always find more news makers and blogs on our website that started off. a couple of hot dogs you can find out too but both barrels into supercuts. revenge against change to russian work horses into race horses. and the international space station. but this stretch ever spent. the scope of the interesting space a. shellacking

that's how u.s. president obama has described the country's midterm elections the president and. losses suffered by democrats in the house of representatives so the frustration felt by the american public the democratic party did manage to retain and have a majority in the senate with the congress divided between the two parties so it will be much harder president obama to move forward with his reforms. less to policies the country's controversial gratian or some predictions estimating one of three americans despite twenty fifty both parties have made moves to target this group. and that is when the politicians are simply playing a double game. sneaking across our border putting americans safety and jobs at risk according to campaign ads like these there's a war brewing in america illegal immigrants are the enemy in life as you know it is the target reacting to a growing anti immigration mood in the country republicans are stepping up their

war on illegal immigration by stoking voter spears but when the so-called enemy is also one of the fastest growing voting blocks in america politicians are trying to pander to latinos hoping their other voters aren't looking like no better republican sharron angle if we have been in her about face attempt to reach out to latinos or actually ended up offending them i don't know you are like you know. you know you are here in arizona senator john mccain had been known as an advocate for humane immigration reform but in the past year he has embraced the right wing attack on illegal immigration drug and human smuggling home invasion murder and complete the dang fence into work this time senator if you want to pass. for many latinos it was simply another point your example of politicians abandoning

them democrats also use spanish language ads to target latino voters if you leanest i'm going to i don't know. it might be an increase in deportations and a lack of progress on immigration reform the process has many questioning the motives of democrats as well but the hypocrisy of us politicians saying one thing but doing another is it last on wrong is a community organizer although we might have been fought in two thousand and eight with the promises of hope and change i think that people have seen and in reality the conditions of actually worsen are people feeling abandoned and demonized by the politicians they elected latinos are growing disillusioned about politics in general here we have what we call a two party dictatorship it's an electorate dictatorship there really it's a two headed beast that represents the same elitist group latino voters are growing in numbers and whether politicians like it or not they'll soon be forced to get the message or they're going to care we're going to have to care because we represent for example specifically in california almost twenty one percent of the electorate

it is this hypocrisy by the politicians that is both a source of frustration for latino voters and inspiration to rise up and stand up against the forces that have oppressed them after all revolution and social mobilization is in the blood of this growing population of americans in los angeles . r.t. when us radio host scott horton says with the current midterm election results bombs go to rid the world of nuclear could no also be undermined. democrats in order to get the republicans in the senate to sign on which democrats still control the senate but by less of a majority now but you need two thirds stratify a treaty and in order to get the republicans to sign on to the start treaty they basically had to add so many amendments and riders to the thing that it basically allows for the creation of brand new generations of hydrogen bombs dozens and dozens uncounted new facilities for manufacturing hydrogen bombs more submarines

more air power and they've changed the accounting methods for the nuclear warheads in such a way that actually the united states doesn't really have to reduce their stockpile of nuclear weapons hardly at all so they've turned what ought to be the most important issue in the world the mutual. reduction of american russia's nuclear weapon stockpiles towards zero and turned it into a farce turned it into a way for republican congressmen to get bankrolled so that they can run again next time and keep the companies that manufacture nuclear weapons and make the parts for the manufacture nuclear weapons in business at the expense of the rest of us and at the risk of our entire species in fact. but a brief look at some of the international news this hour. plus the said bus has been forced to make an emergency landing in singapore on the part of the plane's engine of a fellow flight ninety three eighty plane bound for sydney was carrying more than

yes this time we travel to the tomsk region the situated in western siberia with its four hundred year history its capital tomsk is known for having been a place of residence for many exiles also the reports on how the past of the area has affected its present. we're here in tomsk in southwest service siberia with it's a stunning natural environment beautiful architecture and rich history for outsiders though siberia is more often than not associated with banishment punishment and the gulag now this negative fame of being a lot of convicts and special settlers is not without basis of course now during the regime and the soviet rule under stalin and many people who were exiled to this region and to tomsk in particular now those exiled included criminals political dissidents and opponents of the regime but of course history is not one sided there are many perspectives from which to look at this in retrospect now on the positive side those who were exiled here became a crucial part of shaping the intellectual and cultural personality of this region

. there's a saying every times local knows god created paradise while the devil created no room no room is located in the southern part of the tomsk region difficult to get to and right smack in the middle of a swamp cut off from the rest of the world it's a place renowned as a destination for exiles dating back to the sorry. the first exiles came here in sixteen thirty eight they were most likely polish jesuits later there were more exiles december's who rose up against the tsar in eighteen twenty five then russia's pre-revolutionary political parties like the bolsheviks and i case and the road nicks. in the early nineteenth century the population grew rapidly because of exiles to the point that every fifth the residents of tom skandha surrounding areas was in exile. the last batch who form

a wealthy peasant they were cooled oppositionists but in fact these people were just hard working families among those exile peasants was nikolai gook during stalin's time forced collective farming was introduced many landowning families lost their properties and were deported to siberia his family was sent here and now . nine hundred thirty one he was just four years old. in the work of year we were transported by horse drawn carriage then by railway then locked on a boat down the river at the destination there was nothing except burnt up forest we had to build barracks of wood and earth to live in when it got cold we made window panes of ice labs we had no food only dry bread it was very difficult. while nicholai supplied was because of stalin the former soviet leader himself was banished in a rim in one thousand and was exiled for the sixth time and sentenced to four years

in siberia he lived in this house but after only thirty nine days he escaped the owners of this house and ixia family were already exiles who were sent to this region and it is in this room that the state and it was here in this bed that stalin had actually slept. stole is a riot he lives on in tomsk preserved in this investigative prison museum until the one nine hundred forty s. this is story building house the tomsk pretrial detention center and was also the headquarters of the people's commissariat for internal affairs or n.k.v.d. . here people charged with counter-revolutionary activities were kept in detention interrogated sentenced to death and there is evidence that executions were also performed here. you know what. i like sinister ankle was sentenced to ten years of hard labor in one of stalin's gulags and five years in exile. me in that order i was tried for treason against the motherland i told him it wasn't against the

motherland it was against the government the cases and charges they made up for me were horrific well this right here is one of the prison cells and some of the. crowd about fifteen to twenty people in this room. for desertion on their feet but despite the tragedies in tomsk. history good things did come out of them. many political exiles who were well educated people who contributed a lot to developing education culture and economy in siberia december set up schools for local children exiled polish rebels develop sausage production businesses here coffee and barber shops. for tomsk citizens the past and the future are inseparable men like alexei look ahead. i still feel the pain but i just have to carry on with life i'm eighty six and i'd like to live to ninety and see what happens next said morey who. while young people look back eager to learn lessons

from the past tense are cilia r t reporting from the tomsk region. where people across russia are celebrating a day of national unity the holiday marks an historic occasion when the whole country came together to overthrow a common enemy purposely through an invaders who would seize control of moscow overcoming everybody in sixteen twelve an icon which inspired people to rise up against the conquest was on and by russia's patriotic. recently found it has now been returned to its traditional place in one of the kremlin's towers holiday is one of russia's newest for five years the day is usually filled with political rallies as well as historically constructions and celebrations taking place around the. let's catch up with other business now was shot.

hello welcome to business for graham hay on our team with michelle i was folly the world bank has cut its forecast of russia's g.d.p. growth the next three years thanks analysts say russia has achieved a modest recovery there are fears of a further slowdown for more on this i'm now joined by the world bank's chief economist for russia is thank you very much for joining us this hour so i won't bug report says that the construction consumer is now driving the domestic economy is that because consumption is stronger now other support for the economy have fallen away well i think what is actually happening in the past few months is that investment has been back and much of the growth was actually led more by investments and a kind of a cyclical rebound of restocking of inventories but that's going to cyclical part i think the good news is that we also see consumption gathering steam and this reflects basically fundamental factors driving consumption search is the fact that

. really incomes are growing again for the crisis and employment is lower. in many feared certainly. many other western countries and remember russian consumer is not particularly indebted compared to many western countries so there's a lot more credit rating that could be taken on by the russian consumer i think that all these factors are going to continue. providing the winch in the sale of the russian consumption growth in the next six to twelve months so we expect growth this year to be about four point two percent and then solidified next year to about four and a half percent. largely driven by gains in consumption the group pulled also mentions as a temporary increase in poverty levels here in russia also the drought that was felt last summer now we ever had russian government on a lot to try and help support the employment in russia's amano guard so was the overall tendency in regards to employment. well as i said employment is.

not where one would want to see but it's lower than feared them and lower than in some other countries. and hopefully over the next couple years with the continuation of growth it would it would begin to come for a down as far as the public discussion which is closely correlated with employment and employment in russia because the cultural saving so quite limited in this country. russia is main actually made remarkable gains poverty reduction over the past ten years and certainly up to up to the crisis in public the rate fell from about a quarter of the population down to about thirteen percent or so and there was a temporary uptick during the crisis of course but now it's it's a trend that we believe is going to continue would be. really putting the nation of recovery and growth in medium term now we have had a lot of talk about modernizing russia's economy and our attempts of efforts to build the so-called silicon valley or in skolkovo what is your opinion on this well

this is probably the most difficult challenge diversification of the russian economy and. there's no magic bullet there and i think so clearly creating some of these high tech clusters you know may help especially in specific areas where they develop and so on so forth i would emphasize that it's really going to be an error a different kind of measures and policies that i think will have to be put in place in order to unlock that creative potential of russian businesses and entrepreneurs and sometimes the devil is in the details it's very simple innovation why is it that russia has so many very bright engineers and innovative and creative. grassroots. thinkers if you like and yet there is a very. small number of patients in russia compared to many other countries i think think some. may be holding back this innovative creative energy russian

business and it could be a combination of things you know could be intellectual property rights and can be. additional legal regulatory barriers so one who really has to look at a whole area of change that holds back russia's innovation competitive spirit and and business development overall and you know so discuss this made me actually do some good but i think one needs to go and look for beyond that can be a big challenge for us now moving to the global economy now we've heard from the u.s. in the federal reserve has now just announced a new six hundred billion dollars stimulus package to to help the u.s. recovery but the commercial banks haven't been lending the money that they have now so do you think that the new money that the treasury has or will the banks be lending that. well. the think about the vision for the quantitative easing was essentially as an insurance against deflation and i think partly reflects some of the general certainties in the global economy the fact that the growth

industrial production in recent months. has eased around the world. and the fact that there is a sober stress in with western europe. and the big role of the fiscal stimulus so there's a bit of a sense of a pause in growth and i think. that has been the motivation behind that there are a lot of constraints in credit markets in the united states and russia as well there is the leveraging going on. in balance sheet effects are constraining to banks to extend the credits and i think in the short term that's not going to this is going to change much so i use a lot of uncertainty it's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. in the in the coming months ok john. thank you very much for joining us this hour thank you. but when markets and market share in russia i get to react to the news on the u.s. announcement of the stimulus package is there close for two days here for national holidays both astonished makes a.
