major embarrassment for the u.s. state department thousands of classified diplomatic files have been released by the whistle blowing web site wiki leaks i'll be back with more from washington d.c. in just a few moments. also the. iranian nuclear scientists are targeted in bomb attacks blames israel saying it's an attempt to put the country's nuclear program. and keeping tensions high career pyongyang with a regional joint naval exercises with the u.s. coming dangerously close to the regularly provoking conflict. live from our studios here in central moscow this is r.t.

with you twenty four hours a day so unflattering assessments of the world leaders by u.s. diplomats and spying on the u.n. secretary general that's information anyone has no access to after classified documents from u.s. embassies across the globe were revealed by whistleblower wiki leaks well for more on this we cannot cross of course. in washington. the files can tell us foreign policy secrets but has the leak exposed anything really surprising or even explosive. well bill you're right those are thousands of cables from american embassies around the world sent to washington and from washington they expose diplomatic information never manned for public eyes for example the documents show hillary clinton ordered american diplomats to spy on u.n. leaders including ban ki-moon and the permanent security council representatives from china russia france and the u.k. another file suggest for example two years ago the us ambassador in georgia reported about georgia preparing a major attack on south

a city it was before the war started there what's interesting is after the conflict it was writing about how to save georgian president mikheil saakashvili reputation basically his image among other files released are for example direct calls from saudi arabia to attack iran or detained accounts or detailed accounts of what you asked the plumbers think of the afghan president and his quote corrupt brother experts say most of those documents are are really nothing new for the international diplomatic community but revealed in public they did raise some eyebrows take a listen we know pretty much more of want the united states thinks of being leaders of the ability vance and frost to seize. the thing would be simply to see in print or on official documents.

you know this batch of secret diplomatic correspondent includes some unflattering u.s. intelligence assessments of its relations with many countries and their leaders the u.s. embassy in paris described the french president for example as a naked emperor thinskinned and author a tarion or the german chancellor angela merkel was mentioned as angle of teflon mary merkel because obviously it's a little fame to her or among other things the u.s. embassy in moscow described pres the middle of us playing robin to put back in it russians were action to some of the on flattering cables was we are guided by actions not five some leaks actually here's what foreign minister sergei lavrov said about this. because it was obliged it was fun to read sure but in actual policies we prefer to base our decisions on our partners concrete actions we're going to practice this approach in the future well as you can see some some of the

wires may sound amusing but never the last one revealed in public they proved to be a major embarrassment for the u.s. state department. has been any reaction from the u.s. government so far. i mean that you're mud think that her somehow i hope possible is it that such a vast amount of classified data was actually released into into the public domain . well absolutely this is what the obama administration is asking. its government the obama administration is ordering government agencies to immediately review procedures for safeguarding classified information someone described it as as someone described what happened. last week this week and as as as an epic blow to the u.s. diplomacy and the blow it is us for the u.s. officials are trying to dampen the damage sort of hillary clinton made some call sort of ahead of the weekend release she called china for example the u.s. diplomatic cables put china's relationship with iran under way new scrutiny by

suggesting beijing hadn't complied with us with qwest to stop transfers to tehran of technology and materials that could be used in its weapons programs but this is just yet another huge batch of classified files leaked by the whistle blowing web site earlier this year where remember we can leaks released thousands of secret documents on u.s. action scene of damage stan and iraq they showed civilians killed by american forces some experts are saying that what's really outrageous is not the fact that the u.s. has secrets but that it's no longer able to control the outburst of thing from asian take a listen. to these leaks would never have happened if not for the number of inside just who are ready to leak this information it looks like it's linked to the wars in iraq and afghanistan when offices and they're looking for a not exactly fair business and this moral decay inside the pentagon who's these leaks the main thing this leak has done is break delusion that the state department

has everything down to control they have been exposed mechanisms not 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. well some experts say those embarrassingly this could actually be used to undermine obama and here's a here's an opinion on that as i understand the above administration is supposed to pay the bills or of the last administration because of the documents abate dated back to the year two thousand and four two thousand and five so i personally have a feeling that the 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. well the revelations are often saw embarrassed saying for the u.s. that one senator here in washington called for the state department to include

weekly leaks in a list of terrorist organizations a website is being compared to a terrorist organization you can imagine how desperate it sounds. thanks very much indeed for that update live in washington well now to discuss the effect of the latest leak on the global policy when joined with joined by ninety western government campaign of william spring joining us in london thank you very much indeed for joining us here on r.t. now i understand that your group is actually using the web to criticize western governments over their foreign policy but what would you publish classified information to achieve your goals in the way that we could leaks is done. i personally wouldn't do because i don't have access to it. however if i had access to it it would be a different matter. i think the current release of documents is somewhat less important in

a sense than the previous release of documents relating to military operations in afghanistan and iraq. diplomatic cables are generally not as important as it were in determining understanding policy is what you got from the field work done in the afghan war by the cables we received before but i'm all in favor of anything which actually. brings more information to the public both in america and the united kingdom. are you not you but are you actually in favor then of releasing documents that could actually harm and indeed appear to be doing quite a lot of damage to international relations and indeed harming national security. you know i think the argument that the wiki leaks have harmed us national security is entirely specious what we killick leaks has proved is that the american public

and the u.k. public have been lied to over a long period of time and that the extent of the civilian casualties is far greater in afghanistan and iraq than was ever admitted by western governments i'm all in favor of information release sure but i don't think what about the idea of the freedom of information in terms of using newspapers rather than underhand ways of obtaining classified information which in fact the u.s. says could put many people's lives danger in danger i mean that's irresponsible isn't it. i don't i don't accept the u.s. argument i think that nobody's lives have been put in danger as far as i know by julian assange operations all he has done is reveal that millions of people hundreds of thousands of people of the risk of mortal lethal carnage

in afghanistan and iraq by the continuation of u.s. operations in their current form clearly the extent of the civilian collateral damage was not understood by the western public and it is now that is therefore consequent son just been protecting civilians which is a requirement of international law it's a pity the british government hasn't come out with the truth before all we've had from the british government is the law is half truth obfuscation and generally we can't you know. we just briefly and finally talk about another issue here many are saying that this is this is actually showing the inability of the us state department to actually handle sensitive information and basically do their job in the right way i mean what would you say about that. well i think diplomacy has been relegated anyway over the years i mean all serious decisions are not taken via

diplomatic cables for embassies churchill and stalin made a decision to partition up on the back of a cigarette packets they were sort of certain figures put down. one churchill to another whether it was a cigarette pack it was a small piece of paper anyway that divided up eastern europe and that was that was part of why policy was made and that's why policy should be made i don't think policy should be made via diplomatic cables which can be. william spring it's very interesting what you have to say we appreciate your time here on r.t. live in london. monitoring group thanks for being with us. well now what could be more important than trusting the news and information we see and hear in a special report later next on american veteran journalist examines how the media shapes public opinion and whether it's an information gate way or

a means of manipulation. it was created to serve public interest. and. there is nothing. to. control. the. a senior iranian nuclear scientist has been killed and another one wounded in two separate bomb attacks in tehran wives of the physicists have also been injured the

attacks were reportedly carried out by middle motorcycles who attach bombs to the cars iranian government blames israel and the united states for the incident journalist and broadcaster told r.t. from tehran that it was an attempt to hamper iran's nuclear program from a group. if you live in iran it's a very peaceful place and nothing much of a happens 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 their countries that are interested and are using iran's nuclear program to broadcast adverse publicity are known to the world and they're also known for their terrorist activities and the proxy terrorist organizations in the middle east so i can't expand any more on that there are interested parties and i think the world already knows who they are iran's nuclear program is very expensive but it is

entirely peaceful now why would they want to country's efforts to get on i have no idea they're reactors they used to make medicine they used to generate electricity their light water reactors they can't be any deviations keeping iran under their thumb is one of the main main objectives of such actions. tonight i have a quick look at some other stories from around the world making the headlines at this stage of the day a series of protests taking place in haiti in the wake of sunday's election while the government declared the ballot a success most candidates are calling for the results from council due to fraud many candidates have also accused the outgoing president of rigging the election quite devastated country still battling a growing cholera epidemic which has so far claimed more than a thousand lives. the brazilian government has claimed victory in a major battle against drug traffickers security forces swooped on a gang stronghold in rio de janeiro's most dangerous. and units were deployed in the military operation in which at least forty five people were killed brazil will

host the twenty fourteen football world cup in the twenty sixteen olympics bringing crime under control is their number one priority. the prime minister of new zealand disorder inquiry into the mine tragedy that left several dozen workers dead a blast occurred two weeks ago at the pike river cold mine killing twenty nine people several other explosions followed and the rescue teams were unable to answer the call far which started after the last explosion is still burning and emergency officials say retrieval of the bodies could take weeks. reports suggest china is planning to send a top foreign affairs diplomat to north korea 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. says it's not interested in formally resuming talks on the subject tensions have been stoked by the u.s. and south korea holding forth a joint military exercises in the yellow sea near the disputed maritime border

pyongyang has reportedly put surface to surface missiles on alert comes just days after the north claiming it was provoked thought artillery on an island belonging to the south killing four people. of a korean studies electra says u.s. efforts to keep north korea on edge coming dangerously close to deliberately sparking a conflict. there are many questions about the reasons. behind the u.s. and involvement in the military exercises that have been already the fourth military exercise in the last eight months i believe that you will see is eager to make sure the south koreans and their manes ritualized along with japan in this region are well trained well prepared need more weapons. probably the worst providing military conflicts and finally that north korea is weakened or annoyed and. intimidated the problem is the political damage in this war games with

china which is just sharing the same. water the west in a sea of blue in the yellow sea of china. people's republic of china is getting very nervous along with north korea every time they. stage the new series of the korean war which started in one thousand nine hundred eighty has never ended and the arms disagreement which was concluded in one thousand nine hundred eighty three simply stopped the fire exchanged between the parties so whoever starts the fire on either side of the demilitarized zone or the normally limited line may be named as an aggressor of course staging military exercises is not is not. part of this armistice agreement so it's a clear violation from what they were side happened so it's south korean the united states start military exercises solve the thirty eighth parallel or the northern

limit line which they will literally be in the western city of. seoul the actions can easily be interpreted misinterpreted by north koreans as a violation of arms disagreement. just remind you can find more on our website it's on t.v. dot com and here are some of the stories online at the moment and almost all of the vehicles on the streets of a lot of talk in russia raised fears that war was about to break returns on its own it was just to the shops. the web site it landed a glimpse of a russian underwater bicycle pedal powered submarine opens up the wonders of the ocean depths to everyone with or without experience.

brings up to date for the moment i'll be back with a look at headlines in about well just over ten minutes from now in the meantime the business update is with after this short break stay with us. for the full story we've got it from. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. brighten. soon from fans to impression. on t.v. dot com. hello

welcome to our business program. president dmitri medvedev has suggested more tax cuts for those who back innovative start ups he was speaking at a gathering on modernization and technology the president said investors should be exempt from taxes when they sell their shares in the startup projects such as invest their own money differing from venture capitalists who manage third party funds the president suggestion is the latest proposal to aspire a russian version of silicon valley but business leaders doubt the economy can be modernised by decree one thing as it was a big bust practice and. are used to actions how to how to implement. it it's also important to develop infrastructure also develop trust in businesses and well she should promote development of joint ventures. before us is a little bit more skeptical about government so that the investigator particular

technology of english should be the lead but private sector but if you could go home should do and what steve should do is promote equal rights and promote. the right climate for such investments to post. let's take a look at the markets in russia the indices had a positive start but closed down on the day for us hydro and ross now lost just under one percent on the my six year old kallie shares fell after damage to a rail link the company uses to ship potash from its main washing line and no one else nickel were also down over one and a half percent on the us. the e.u. has agreed on an eighty five billion euro bailout package for arland but that is still only a fraction of the money the bank and ireland have lost and many doubt this summer is enough to halt the crisis the head of london school of economics told business r.t. that the bailout package is credible but irish banks will have to give up their global

ambitions. the i.m.f. and the rest of the european union are now standing behind the irish government the question remains however what is the future for the irish banks because in the past they were very large they did a lot of international business particularly in the u.k. and my own view is that so over that we will have to see a significant contraction in the activities of the irish banks and they will have to go back to being essentially local domestic banks because this adventure that they went on overseas was a failure last week chancellor merkel made a strong quote she asked if politicians had the courage to consult the bankers and bondholders to make those who took the risks share in the bailout how comments were barely reported in the western press why is this a touchy issue because if you say that's what you are thinking about people in the

market react to it immediately so this is not something that you can speculate about either have to have a clearly worked out plan which involves a debt restructuring which is for everybody painful maybe but at least equally painful if you have that plan and you can do it you could do that for greece or italy for portugal you could say we're going to have a standstill over the weekend we're going to work out but everyone's going to take a haircut that's possible what you can't do is speculate about it is this still a threat of a double dip recession in europe and should any additional measures be taken i'm not personally concerned about a double dip in the center of the european economy if you look at what's happening in germany which remains by far the largest economy the economy is moving ahead really quite well the french economy is doing ok and the british economy is also

recovering actually rather better this year. expected the problem is in the periphery if you like the southern european countries and including. the very last competitiveness during the years the first decade of the euro particularly the southern europeans did and they now have a fundamental structural problem they have to try to improve their competitiveness which unfortunately within a single currency zone means they're going to reduce their wages and reduce their prices and that's what is going on and it's very very difficult to do and that's all the updates for this hour but you can always find more stories on our website at r.t. dot com slash business stay with us. it
