r.t. coming to live from moscow i'm marina joshua welcome to the program the inner workings of u.s. diplomacy is being put on display for the world to see thanks to whistleblower web site wiki leaks thousands of communiques reveal often damning opinions and host countries including close allies among them seemingly illegal plans to spy on top u.n. figures and the suggestion the state department knew georgia was planning an attack on south the city before it happened just like here chefs joins us live for more on this so i say their thoughts of america's diplomats have been laid bare as we can see how are they dealing with this massive leak. well some of the finding some of the things revealed by the controversial week nice website are so cynical in their nature that it's really hard to imagine what steps the american diplomats now have to take to clear their reputation now first of all it is also
1:02 am
a great threat to their work in the middle east and muslim countries across the world as some of the some of the conversations we do the american diplomats have strong anticyclonic statements and of course this puts their work in serious danger in the middle east region and the muslim countries across the world now also we know according to the weaken leaks that basically the converse in the conversations between american diplomats they actually in some way betrayed their close allies for instance that we can lease reveals that the american diplomats supported the kurdish party in turkey despite openly saying that it wasn't so and despite that unkind eyes being one of the closest allies in this region for washington another interesting part of the week elise revealing says that. the the secret service is in the united states were ordered to spy on several very key u.n. figures for instance they were trying to acquire their credit card numbers top
1:03 am
their cell phones and get their fingerprints and things like that and some of the things revealed by that we have a very absurd. about them for instance. the u.s. diplomats were sending out letters to western diplomats to european diplomats concerning the u.n. general assembly so when the. when the iranian president had to speak they received instructions on how and when they should have left at the u.n. general assembly hall and one of the situations was really funny because as a member of the swedish delegation according to the we can side received a letter from the u.s. diplomats. saying that he had to leave the hole when i just wanted to mention the whole issue so the iranian president didn't actually mention this issue so the swedish diplomat was perplexed as to what to do next so he didn't know whether he had to leave the room or stay inside so this he did create
1:04 am
a great confusion for him only no we know that the police website the controversial website is to publish an overall almost a quarter of a million different files and. different conversations of the american diplomats and we're yet to see what other scandalous things we can exist as the publishing of course will be keeping track of that. now i see the first time information was released to russia really outlines any specific revelations there. yes we do know that the week leaks website is providing information to several magazines and newspapers across the world the russian reporter magazine is no exception to that we know that the website has supplied the magazine with very interesting information concerning the south the second war of two thousand and eight reported that the american ambassador to georgia at the time john theft who is now an ambassador if you guessed the united states in ukraine knew some twenty four hours before started falling on south that. were moving
1:05 am
towards the south border and later on some several days after that he can sack to washington on how to start an information war and information campaign to clear his name as if anybody doubted that saakashvili was to was involved in that attack and . we also know that it's. supported that several countries including the baltic states and poland who openly supported georgia in that war also knew that it was saakashvili who started this attack and saw the set but obviously tried to neglect that fact also the weekly reporting. that several. u.s. diplomats were talking about different world leaders in europe and in russia discussing on how and who is running the country in particular they discussed the power tandem in russia the. collaboration talking about who is actually in charge
1:06 am
of all things here in this country and saying that it was probably putin who despite that he's prime minister that he is running russia in moscow. indeed first of all this is not surprise to me because this was something we could read in the western magazines and newspapers from for a very long time but second indeed the statements from u.s. diplomats came in the george w. bush era in two thousand and eight and earlier than that now we have the so-called reset of relations between washington and moscow so it is a quite possible that the opinions among the u.s. diplomats are quite different right now but indeed this is we have to see what's the reaction of the u.s. diplomats on those revealing why that we can exhale be. and i say thanks so much indeed for at the something important for central moscow and sergey struck on political columnist at russia's commerce and his paper says although this leak exposes mass in the state department its real target could be president obama. of
1:07 am
course this is an unprecedented situation definitely and. i think this is just a serious incident which has to be analyzed because. if such situations happens that this custom or shadow of the work of the state department sued differently they have to improve their defeat because they put by such leaders they put even awkward positions in the their partners all over the world as i understand above my administration is supposed to pay the bills or of the last administration because of the some documents of bait dated back to the year two thousand and four two thousand and five so i personally have a feeling that the you know this is ongoing an attack on president obama which started not today and which aims not to allow him to be reelected this is the theme i think so gastric on political columnist a conversation newspaper there. china is seeking to ease tensions on the korean
1:08 am
peninsula by proposing an emergency meeting of the six nations involved in north korea disarmament talks but the south has said it was not interested in formally resuming talks a nuclear disarmament tension remains high on the peninsula where the u.s. and south korea holding for the joint military exercises in the yellow sea near the disputed maritime border is reportedly put its surface to surface missiles on alert it comes just days after of the latest incident where the north claiming to be provoked by the south fired artillery on an island killing four pepe escobar a brazil based correspondent for asia times says that the only way to resolve the conflict between the korea is to proceed with a tux. you can accuse the north korean regime of anything but they are rational actors they are not crazy they're not foolish they have a kind of bunker mentality when they feel they're under siege state can react and sometimes some predictable ways but usually very aggressively like if you corner
1:09 am
a cat. the cat will go at you even if europe huge lion so the only possible solution which the north koreans themselves are always saying look we need to sit down and talk and the chinese they don't want to rock the boat they don't want to unified korea but they want to start to scold the will of north korea as a kind of moral as their alley and you know very very sensitive border they don't want all these unified korea with american bases in the what is today north korea for the chinese and florida north korea is just looks like an attacking exercise specially because the george u.s.s. george washington which is basically a floating war machine with six thousand soldiers and fighter jets it's a nuclear powered you name it they could destroy the whole country if they want to you know it's going to the yellow sea as well this is a use the struggle cation and brazil based correspondent for the times pepe escobar
