it is tiny out of the russian capital you watching josh 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 side we can links thousands of communiques review often damning opinions and host countries including close allies among them seemingly illegal plans to spy on top u.n. figures at the suggestion the state department knew georgia was planning an attack on south the city before it happened. he has the details some of the things revealed by the controversial weeks website are so cynical in their nature that it's really hard to imagine what steps they were going diplomats now have to take to clear their reputation. first of all it is also 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 so . wrong antis lie make 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 conversations between american diplomats they actually in some way betray their close allies for instance that we can leaks reveals that the american diplomats supported the kurdish party in turkey despite openly saying that it wasn't so and despite that and guys being one of the closest allies in this region for washington another interesting part of the week the leaks revealing says that. the the secret services 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 where their fingerprints and things like that and some of the things revealed by the we have a very absurd about them u.s.

diplomats were sending out letters to western diplomats to european diplomats concerning the u.n. general assembly so when that 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 as a member of the swedish delegation according to the weeks website received a letter from the u.s. diplomats saying that he had to leave the whole when i'm with my what you just want to mention the whole of course 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 while this incident basically shows how the united states how washington is trying to influence the politics of other countries is trying to control the situation urging other countries to follow oh it's directed the weeks website is providing information to several magazines and newspapers across the world the washer 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 that time john theft who is now an ambassador if you guessed the united states in ukraine knew some twenty four hours before georgia started falling on south the said that the georgian missile complexes were moving towards the south the city in the border and later on some several days after that he can sack to washington on how to start the information war and information campaign to clear secretary his name as if anybody doubted that saakashvili was to was involved in that attack and. we also know that the weekly supported that several countries including the baltic states and poland who openly supported georgia in that who are also knew that it was saakashvili who started this attack and saw the sets but obviously tried to neglect that fact also

that we could be reporting that several. u.s. diplomats were talking about different world leaders to europe and again russia discussing on how and who is running the country in particular they discussed the power tandem in russia the. talking about who is actually in charge 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 well these speculations are not something completely new basically one could read about it in western newspapers or magazines and besides these these talks these conversations were taking place in the george w. bush era in two thousand and eight and earlier than the us now as long as we have this reset of relations between moscow and washington maybe the opinions among the u.s. diplomats are now different but many experts agree that the new findings by the weekly . web site is not something completely new it hasn't revealed any big secret we

know pretty much more of what the united states thinks the leaders of the ability vance and prostheses variously thing would be simply to see in print on if we should documents but indeed this is we have to see what's the reaction of the u.s. diplomats on those revealing why do we do next will be. here to ask your reporting their. political columnist at russia's commerce a newspaper says although this leak exposes mass in the state department its real target could be president obama of 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 with this custom or shadow of the work of the state department so definitely they have to improve their technique because they put by such leaks they put even awkward positions of the 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. cygnus took on political columnist at commerce a newspaper there and reports suggest china's top foreign affairs diplomat could be sent to north korea as early as monday as part of attempts to ease tensions on the peninsula beijing wants an emergency meeting of the six nations involved in north korea disarmament talks south korea has said it was not interested in formally resuming talks a nuclear disarmament at this time tensions have been stowed by the u.s. and south korea holding forth a joint military exercises in the yellow sea near the disputed maritime border gang

will north korea as a kind of moral as their alley you know very very sensitive border do you don't want all these unified korea with american bases in the what is today north korea for the chinese in florida north korea is just looks like an attacking exercise specially because the joint 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 know how it's going to the sea as well this is a use the struggle creation. escobar brazil based correspondent for the asia times the air. live from moscow still to come on the program. this is a unique thing and. we had to be as accurate as possible. dive dive down the paddle ourselves promises to take the ocean explorers to new depths.

a deal with michigan on bank for the three billion euro three point five percent stake in russia finance chief was speaking at the opening of the vos news to tour a paul plant what you see in front of you is very strategic number one what you see in front of you is a combined cycle gas turbine unit it's the most efficient operating in this country what is non-strategic it's more something that we don't feel we have the right competency for this is our competency what you see in front of them we are excellent builder or constructor and organizer of c.c.t. projects and we try to meet the expectations of the russian government. russia is the third largest gold producer in the world but despite rocketing prices for gold growth is slowing artistic talent but of course explores why russia could be left behind the gold rush.
