3:02 am
new delhi they stopped in economic storm. this is r t coming to live from moscow i'm marina josh welcome to the program russian businessman victor boyd is now in jail in new york awaiting charges after being extradited from thailand suspected of arms smuggling if convicted in the u.s. he faces life in prison but moscow says it will continue to fight for a book signing his extradition as illegal as marina fortnight now reports u.s. justice department refuses to give me personally any comment regarding what will happen next to victor boot but i can tell you that prosecutors are preparing to address the media some point wednesday that would detail how the the trial would
3:03 am
proceed if there is to be a trial where he will be held in the time being as i mentioned i did reach out to the justice department to just find out basic questions when the arraignment would be where mr boot would be relocated to whether he would be held under special administrative measures that the justice department wrote me back saying that they would not comment or answer any of my questions obviously this has added a tense element to the relations between the united states and russia russian foreign minister sergei lavrov weighed in on the situation questioning why this clandestine activity is taking place at the moment. despite two rulings in thailand's criminal court saying victor boots guilt was not proven to be the government has still decided to hand him over to the us i consider this unprecedented political pressure on the legal process and on thailand's government this is an example of striking injustice we as
3:04 am
a state will continue to give all necessary support to boot as a russian citizen. shortly after the extradition was underway us state of fishel say that they followed all the procedures they hope that what is happening right now with the activity surrounding viktor booth that it would not impact the relations between moscow and washington in any way let's take a listen to what was said. we have. a broad and deep relationship with russia it is guided by our mutual national interests i don't expect that this will have any impact on our relationship but it is fully consistent with both our. bilateral treaty obligations with thailand and fully consistent with international law this was a very quick and precise perceive that went under way that surprised good
3:05 am
wife who now remains as to what is happening with her husband what will happen when she will see had now we did get to speak with her here's what she said yes it's hard for me to talk about but what happened was totally unexpected for both myself and victor's lawyer the thai cabinet held a closed meeting where a political decision was taken to extradite my husband to the us the extradition took place within four hours of the meeting against all the rights and laws of the country the only law that exists in thailand is u.s. influence i guess the decision was paid for. what is coming to light in this story with this. story is the u.s. justice system is why what they do process in the united states is all about because so many secrets have been kept so many people have been kept in the dark about what is happening with all of this while the u.s. has been aggressively campaigning to get him extradited and. so right now while
3:06 am
many are questioning what do process and the u.s. is really all about. reporting there now and still in an investigative journalist and writer says the u.s. is trying to make victor bullet a scapegoat i can't possibly see how it would be a fair trial because again americans have spent ten years actually trying to get out of the trouble they spent two years and a half trying to get him out of prison in thailand to the united states and now actually when they have him in their grasp in the united states if they actually put him on fair trial and he wins this case imagine what's going to happen to the united states they're going to turn into a locking stock of the entire world so no the trial is not going to be a fair trial but again victor would simply has no secrets to tell so in a fair trial he would go a whole but again he won't go home i mean the whole idea of viktor buddhism merchant of death is a hollywood phenomenon the trouble is not in arms merchant he was also he's a cargo merchant he was you know if you will the transporter so if americans think
3:07 am
you can actually get secrets out of him they're very very very wrong you know the russians know there's the americans know this there's two ways to look at this or we're going to have a show trial of a get out of a closed door trial i think probably they're going to go for the show trial because again is a very useful piece of the mantel piece because as i said before it's a big trouble just a pawn of this global game where the end game is to get russia anyway in any means possible and was anyone still an investigative journalist and writer. now new conservatives have been talking us foreign policy with the bush way we're at a meeting in washington such rhetoric how ready failed them in a presidential race two years ago but with their republican allies controlling the house the right wingers hope to put their views back on the agenda are just callen ford has more. conservative leaders came together for two days of quote restoring america's leadership in a democratic world without ever acknowledging the role their policies played in its decline they reassured each other that china's rise didn't signal imperial demise
3:08 am
we're different from china you know we have a liberal regime we make mistakes all the time and we've had you know there are things in our history for which we need to apologize and have apologized but at the end of the day we think of ourselves as trying to promote human rights and lift all boats and prosperity and that's not how the chinese regime thinks of itself and they painted a rosy picture of their continued occupation of afghanistan and their ability to control afghan president hamid karzai despite new corruption charges and revelations electoral fraud cars i don't know which version one point zero of president karzai he was very amenable to listening to western advice and we've seen the emerging the last several years version two point zero of course which is a very different figure one who the west is in a sense we stepped away from our mentoring relation with him and became really someone adversarial they presented their typical it approach to russia and eminent threat but at the same time no match for u.s. military might i don't worry about every mission the cold war i don't think it's
3:09 am
going to happen one reason is i don't think the russians are capable of reading and warned of an imminent danger should the us close any of its eight hundred thirty seven military bases worldwide to reduce the four trillion dollar deficit my greatest fear is that in economic tough times the people will see the defense budget as the place to solve the nation's deficit problems. to find money for other parts of the government i think that would be disastrous in the world environment we see today and what we're likely to see in the years to come unquestionable too was america's nuclear arsenal well i hope that we have a world. without nuclear weapons i also hope that page. just outside the gates of the white house the last two years ago in the presidential election neoconservatives gathered here at this hotel to espouse much of the same rhetoric they had back with the threats of iran and china a permanent presence in iraq and afghanistan and
3:10 am
a skyrocketing defense budget and they had their foreign backers in the audience the new conservative view is that we need to go all out to eliminate one side and have a victory and then empower the people to to manage. their government and you agree with that view i definitely do among them were former foreign darlings of washington back for a pat on the back even as their influence faded at home i'm not a republican or democrat and. a member of solidarity well you can do what you want this is your country do what you world well i have my view and my own proposals. american. establishment believes that this is important it will be great if they don't feel continue oh so it's no problem most tellingly democrat turned. senator joseph lieberman praised president obama to me the story that in some ways neither party wants to knowledge muster courage as people like what i write is that if you
3:11 am
look back at the last two years the story of the obama foreign policy is as march continuity as change from the bush administration policy neo conservatives may be down but they're not out with republicans back in control of the house their foreign policy agenda is back on the table and ford artsy washington d.c. . and as the republicans raise new life into old rhetoric the democrats are struggling to bring change and they're making a last ditch effort to push a key arms deal through congress before the end of the year vice president joe biden has warned that failure to ratify the strategic arms reduction treaty with russia will in danger america's national security. and sprit false statements by republicans that the deal should be signed this year with some saying it should be dropped altogether the new start treaty was sealed in april and should slash the two country's nuclear arsenals by a third but it won't come into force until ratified by both sides something moscow
3:12 am
says it's been ready to do for months republicans made significant gains in the midterm elections with few willing to cooperate with obama's democrats on the start treaty. the more i have for you this hour on our team exploring space and the moon will tell the story of the so-called moon that the u.s.s.r. sent up to explore with the moon explore the moon rather and what they found out. plans for a rescue package for ireland are being drawn up by eurozone finance ministers meeting in brussels and members have vowed to support dublin where the struggling economy should request help the decision comes on the back of market fears that some smaller countries are not capable of paying back their massive debts earlier the president of the european union warrant the irish debt crisis could cause and collapse now they were of even from one based investment company says dublin may have little turn to take the money. i don't really in the position of much
3:13 am
choice because clearly it's a sort of rock and a hard place. and the short term expediency a lot better than. the immediate reactions of the situation but just you know you what you want to keep an eye on the fact that one country after another. in terms of news flow and in terms of good the way the market is looking at this but my guess would be it's likely to be a short situation for all in because i believe that they will be forced to take bailout money and that will put them back probably in portugal in terms of the country being the most. and that was then they learned lieven from a london based investment company. and a financial analyst max kaiser says arlen should seek help from the institutions responsible for its demise. in last ireland's willing to give up its sovereignty
3:14 am
unless ireland is going to become a debt slave unless ireland wants its affairs conducted by the i.m.f. and the i.m.f. everywhere they've gone they've brought destruction and economic mayhem you know they're licking their chops waiting to get in there to cause havoc pay themselves a huge freeze give bonuses to their colleagues of crony capitalists and terrorist bankers and ireland is quaking in its boots and the government unfortunately in our lives not standing up for the people it's advocated its role as representative of the people the i.m.f. and the e.u. and the e.c.b. caused arlen's crisis so why are you going to them to ask you to solve the crisis they're the ones that caused the crisis are only needs to divorce itself from these financial terrorists and stand on its own two feet and russia will supply the lebanese army with free helicopters tanks and munitions the announcement comes after prime minister saad hariri to visit to moscow the deal will boost lebanon's
3:15 am
poorly equipped military which for a long time has been in need of an overhaul military expert believes the country doesn't feel safe but an armed lebanon certainly will neither syria nor israel. this they live on on doesn't feel very much secure due to its past serial war due to the. recent islam the stuff he wrote and due to the fact that central government always doesn't control the solvent territory close to searle's that's why there are many friends still living on security but the majority of them they are not from external enemies but they are from the situation inside i think they're both neighbors syria and that he serials they wouldn't be happy seeing that live on the rearming because they used to the fact levanon these are weak state that there is no strong guy me that they can't give an armed response that's why i think this is a very paradoxical situation. now for some international stories iran is testing
