a very warm welcome to you this is live from moscow. workings over u.s. diplomacy being put on display for the world to see thanks to a whistleblower web site wiki leaks thousands of communiques reveal often damning opinions on the 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 . before it happened. reports. we understand that this is only a first part of almost a quarter of a million documents to be published by the controversial web site wiki leaks and it may seem sensational to some of the facts which are listed in these documents and may be jeopardizing the reputation of american diplomacy as a whole but to many experts the as new revealed revelations by their website is not something completely new and is not something completely unexpected in fact many experts say that these facts are something many journalists and politicians have
6:02 am
always known about and they just needed an official truth which was found in the form of these publications by the website we know pretty much more of. a thing. there is a thing would be theory to see it in print on documents all to summarize what the week elites website had to say this time is many different issues many different new facts about the way the american diplomacy has been behaving in the last several years in particular the plans to spy on u.n. top officials during the u.n. general assembly to wiretap their phones and acquire their fingerprints and credit card numbers also a discreet supporter of the kurdish party in turkey despite it had been never openly admitted that the support was there and in fact the washington has been turkey's very strong ally so this is somehow somehow
6:03 am
a betrayal of its very close ally according to the website and also very interesting facts instructions revealed by the we can leaks instructions to the west in the european. diplomats on how and when to leave the u.n. general assembly hall during the reagan presidency speech so all these collections are brits seem to be pretty interesting but the one question which is really interesting to many experts right now as is the timing of all of these publications obviously all these facts listed by the website relate to the george. to two thousand and eight and earlier than that and many experts are trying to find out as to why it was published now with obama administration in office and maybe see a clear connection here believing that this is an attempt to pin the sins and wrongdoings of the bush era into the current administration as i understand by my administration. to pay the bills or the last administration.
6:04 am
thousand and four two thousand and five and so i personally have a friend in the. ongoing attack on president obama which started not today and which aims. to allow him to be reelected some of the information by the website was distributed exclusively to the russian reporter magazine and that is it really interesting information in that sense that it is related to the two thousand and eight south the set in conflict the website reported that the us ambassador at the time john thout who is now at the us ambassador to ukraine knew some twenty four hours before georgian bombs started falling on the south and capital that the georgian military complexes were heading towards the south. and several days later he discreetly contacted washington asking to initiate an information campaign. to protest soccer president saakashvili his name as if the whole world wasn't
6:05 am
expecting that second city started this war and also we know according to this information from the website that several countries including the baltic states and poland they knew about the fact that saakashvili was the one who started this attack and saw the said thoughts they still went on to protect georgia and officially support the country in that war also another interesting information. published by the website is that the american diplomats some american diplomats have been using rather abuse if. descriptions of world leaders including the russian president and russian prime minister they were deliberating as to who is actually running the running things in russia suggesting that it was like even put in who is still in charge despite that he is the prime minister not by the president well these speculations are not something completely new basically one could read about it in many western newspaper magazine and besides these these
6:06 am
talks these conversations were taking place in the george w. bush era in two thousand and eight and earlier than the us you know 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 indeed this is we have to see what the reaction of the u.s. diplomats on those revealing why do we do next will be. reporting that while their chief editor of a russian reporter magazine says that wiki leaks could never have happened without people inside the u.s. government wanting the information to be exposed. these leaks would never have happened if not for the number of insiders who are ready to lead this information it looks like it's linked to the wars in iraq and afghanistan when officers and astute that they're working for a not exactly fair business and this moral decay inside the pentagon caused these leaks the main thing this leak has done is break the illusion that the state department has everything under control they have been exposed mechanisms not
6:07 am
secret but quite simple and cynical partners of the u.s. will be more careful now it's another sign that the u.s. is no longer dominating the world. and that is vitaly labor in the chief editor of the russian reported magazine. a prominent iranian nuclear scientist has been killed and another wounded in a pair of bomb attacks in tehran report suggests they were targeted in two different locations both by men on motorcycles who touched bombs to their cars journalist and broadcaster kiana mokhtari who's in tehran believes it senator to iran's nuclear program from abroad if you live in iran it's a very peaceful place nothing much ever happens here when these kind of actions are carried out it is generally from abroad and it's carried out with their coordination with their planning and their agents who might have been able to get in the country which in this case they have and countries that are interested and
