room the hotel and agree to go how would international house. every green lowell who told. this to do this is an example of striking injustice we as a state who continue to give all necessary support to vick to boot as a russian citizen the u.s. prosecutors are set aside of the fate of russian businessmen victor borge faces charges of supplying weapons to terrorist after being extradited from thailand. well i hope that we can have a world. without nuclear weapons i also hope that page. a mass of the fans budget that world with nuclear weapons and seeing threats all around our issues back on the atlantic after the republican success in the mid-term elections. and an island to far the european union warns of economic collapse
4:02 am
if island and the wholly new don't want to weather the economic storm. and on the business desk with the european union. the liberalization of the gas market being the world's largest producer is no longer enough to guarantee market dominance all have much more in the business but it's in in twenty minutes time. watching aren't the live from moscow a marina joshua into the program russian businessman and gun running suspect victor borge has been put in a new york jail after extradition from thailand moscow insists the thai decision to hand him over to the u.s. authorities was illegal and says it will continue to fight for him if convicted book of face life behind bars reports. u.s.
4:03 am
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 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 coote would be relocated to whether he would be held under special administrative measures and 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. but.
4:04 am
despite two rulings in thailand's criminal court saying victor boots guilt was not proven the high 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 a state will continue to give all necessary support to be to boot as a russian citizen. shortly after the extradition was underway usaid officials 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 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
4:05 am
consistent with both our. bilateral treaty obligations with thailand and fully consistent with international law this was a very quick and person perceives that under way that surprised tributes wife who now remains as to what is happening with her husband what will happen when she will see head next we do 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 this decision was paid for and what is come to light in this story with this story is the u.s.
4:06 am
justice system is wide what the jew 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 many are questioning what due process in the u.s. is really all about. reporting there daniel is still in an investigative journalist and writer says the u.s. is trying to make victor borge a scapegoat. i can't possibly see how it would be a fair trial because i get americans i've 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 them in their grasp in the united states if they actually do 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 lot being stuck of the entire world so no the trial is not going to be a fair trial but again victor boot simply has no secrets to tell so in
4:07 am
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 as a hollywood phenomenon the trouble is not an arms merchant he was also he's a cargo merchant he was if you will the transporter so if americans think 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 we're going to have a closed door trial i think probably they're going to go for the show trial because again is a very useful piece of mantlepiece because as i said before it's a big trouble just a pawn of this global game where the end game is to get out of russia any way and any means possible and i was daniel still an investigative journalist and writer there neoconservatives have been talking us foreign policy with the bush flavor at a meeting in washington the right wingers have called to boost the enormous military budget five threats coming from abroad and question moscow's nuclear mind and even our russian political outsider try to help neo cons restore america's
4:08 am
dominance in the world are to scale and ford has more. neoconservative 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 were different from china you know we have a liberal regime we make mistakes all the time and you know there are things in our history for which we need to apologize and have apologized but at the end of the day i 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 what was version one point zero of president karzai he was very amenable to listening to western advice then we've
4:09 am
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 relationship him and became really someone adversarial they presented their typical approach to russia and eminent threat but at the same time no match for u.s. military might i don't worry about a read mission the cold war i don't think it's 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
4:10 am
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 gather here at this hotel to espouse much of the same rhetoric they had back read the threats of iran and china a permanent presence in iraq and afghanistan and 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 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 republican and democrats you know. a member of solidarity well you can do what you want this is your country to do with your well i have my own view and my own proposals.
4:11 am
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 a democrat turned. senator joseph lieberman of praise president obama to me the story that in some ways neither party wants to acknowledge muster courage as people like what i write is that if you 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 r. t. washington d.c. . as republicans breathe 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 president joe biden has warned that failure to ratify the strategic arms reduction treaty with russia will
4:12 am
endanger america's national security his freefall statements by republicans that the deal shouldn't 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 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 slovenian president says nato needs russia's help in order to move forward and this comes ahead of the alliance a summit in portugal where world leaders are expected to discuss a new strategy that he will tour believes that teaming up with moscow is an important step in achieving that. there has to change. in a search for a mission for a long time after the ending of cold war did to me the question was if nuclear is
4:13 am
necessary a poll but the mission was never completely different and i think that it cannot be considered to be different with a true partnership with russia and we don't have a cold war and then more and we have to figure out what to do snooped partnership means and i think that in this book in the coming days we should come closer to that definition. find out what else libyan president has to say about nato as well as the e.u. about twenty minutes time here in our team and more i have for you this hour exploring space and we tell them it's so cold water tanks that they use are sent up to explore the moon and what they found out. plans for rescue package for island are being drawn out by eurozone finance ministers meeting in brussels members have vowed to support dublin whether it's a struggling economy should it request help the decision comes on the back of
4:14 am
market fears that some smaller countries are not capable of paying back their massive debts earlier the president of the european union warned the irish debt crisis could cause an e.u. collapse now they literally run for a london based investment company says dublin may have little turned it but to take the money. i think we're really in the position of of much choice because clearly it's a sort of a rock and a hard place norio. in the short term expediency of bailout so it's better than the. bond holders all or 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 appears to be on a slow roast in terms of news flown in terms of 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
4:15 am
country being the most most closely that was now naylor leland from our london based investment company there while financial analyst max kaiser says ireland shouldn't seek help from the institutions responsible for its demise. in less ireland's willing to give up its sovereignty 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 they've brought destruction and economic mayhem you know they're licking their chops waiting to get in there to cause havoc pay themselves huge fees give bonuses to their college or a of crony capitalists and terrorist bankers and ireland is quitting in its boots and the government unfortunately in our lives not standing up for the people it's abdicated its role as representative of the people the i.m.f. and the e.u. and the e.c.b. caused ireland's crisis so why are you going to them to ask you to solve the crisis
4:16 am
they're the ones that caused the crisis ireland needs to divorce itself from these financial terrorists and stand on its own two feet. and russia will supply the lebanese army with three helicopters tanks and munitions the announcement comes after prime minister saad hariri reason visit to moscow the deal will boost lebanon's fully equipped military which for a long time has been a need of an overhaul military expert believes the country doesn't feel safe but an arm lebanon certainly will please neither syria nor israel. i think that will enable syria but you cereal they will be happy seeing that live on all the rearming because they used to the fact that living on these weak state that there is no stronger army that becomes you all respond to this the norm doesn't feel very much secured you do. see reward you do that. very soon please let me stop here due to the fact that some people government dole almost doesn't control the solvent
