channeling funds to the whistleblower website wiki leaks have stopped payments but are still allowing money to flow to violent embraces groups like the klux klan. and british authorities are picking up the after what's been called the worst time rather than a decade after lawmakers approved a height to which you feel. it's seven pm in moscow thanks for being with us this is our team with me and he said now way first stop for the first time in more than seventy years the nobel peace prize ceremony has been held without the winner there is growing anger from the chinese government over giving the prize to human rights advocate. the pro-democracy activist is serving in eleven year sentence for subversion chinese authorities have not only banned him but i. also his wife from attending the
11:02 am
ceremony in norway almost a third of the fifty countries invited to oslo are staying away including russell saudi arabia and pakistan russian officials have even suggested julian assange the leader of wiki leaks deserves the award and while washington is hunting for a silence after his latest revelations the u.s. is among masons calling for the release of the chinese nobel prize winner some say it smacks of double standards. but. the nobel prize has gone to the lucille ball i don't want to pass in the judgment on you snow oh what is implied is it's really been targeting of chinese up on your political sense although it has nothing to do with what your usual ball is actually done and you come to the conclusion that cries based on political considerations rather than on anything entire example well i saw the statement by the russian media regarding
11:03 am
a sub i think that what you see with regard to the silence is that most standards are going to scientists now being threatened he's being targeted for releasing information to the global leader so they do see the novel standards of the so-called international community where a son is talking to a halt knowing what's what he should be doing which is releasing factual information which should be known to the public and then you have the opposite case where the same people will be pushing for a candidate which is a dissident within the people's republic of china and using the nobel peace prize to justify a political agenda and this year it essentially is there to put pressure on china and to china's so-called human rights record when in fact the united states human rights record is far worse than that of china. those supporting wiki leaks have staged a cyber war on companies which are obstructing its work including pay power visa
11:04 am
and master card these firms say they do not allow their clients to promote illegal activities because going to cam reports this doesn't stop them from continuing to serve some outspoken hate groups. the u.s. government has presented no charges against julian a song but the absence of solid accusations did not stop american government officials from reportedly putting pressure at the highest level to cut off weiqi leaks money supply the senior executive of america's money transfer giant pay pal said the state department had written to the company claiming the online whistleblower was involved in illegal activities so pay pal along with master card and the sat no longer accept cash donations for the controversial website it's the threat of this impact on national security and we say that in the united states everybody. you know what's their pants. they do what they're told.
11:05 am
and so i think that it's a misconception in some cases that people think that the u.s. is purely a money driven society it's not the government certain particularly over national security no court ruling no legal procedures were needed to crackdown on the media organization i think it's outrageous wiki leaks has not been charged with a single u.s. crime and i'm saying even charged with a crime and here the nation or the country's financial institutions are taking action on behalf of our state department to extinguish this whistleblower web site later pay-pal backtracked on acting upon the u.s. government's request master card and the so were most of ace of on the issue but the general explanation they give for not accepting donation payments will weaken leaks is that the site quote encourages promotes facilitates or instructs
11:06 am
others to engage in illegal activity but on the other hand neither master card have any problems processing donations for say no kuku. clan racist movement and his. history of extreme violence with the goals of racial segregation and white supremacy and yet it takes seconds to make a donation to the klan we're using one of one of those is that visa and master card must be saying it's all about business right but they're not saying that when it comes to. and number of senators including the chairman of the homeland security committee joe lieberman were quick to pat those companies on the back for cutting off cash to weiqi leaks but some can't help asking if u.s. officials are so down on week why aren't they after the week you leaks partner

11:07 am
papers one other incredible thing about the prosecution is that so many people are falsely reporting that we can weeks has dumped two hundred fifty thousand documents that's not true at all they only were putting stuff up on their web page when you go to the new york times or der spiegel. or the guardian or use we're putting up or very useful to the united states government in some ways there is a severe slanting in the output. that is the new york times got to go through as many document as it possibly could in the several weeks or several months given to it by we kulaks to go through these documents and pick and choose those documents that were most conducive towards the new york times there's a lot of mystery surrounding wiki leaks but what's on the surface now are examples of double standards everyone is after a week in leaks but not for example the new york times question is why going to shut down our t. washington d.c. . here with our to you live from moscow still to come on the program a boat for
11:08 am
a billionaire for an out of world yacht and unveil its owner as well as how much he had to drop to make it his own. that's coming up but first a medium it's made of is likely to run for the next presidential term and russia that's what his aides are cardi their covert said in an interview with the b.b.c. we can now discuss this with russian sociologist of the just love. thanks for being with us how should this statement be viewed from which i think is the statement of for on the record that should be viewed as a general expression of feeding which is quite common in the current corridor mr medvedev who is very active as president who is pushing forward his agenda he would definitely want to be the next election so he doesn't seem he's in like a lamb dog today because he's pushing very hard to his agenda and everything trolls
11:09 am
that he wants. the next election so that election would be just over a year we haven't heard from the leaders about who's going to run what exactly are they waiting for. i think. i'm not debating for something special because the logie call for the sufficient power here in russia is. to say. quite late announcement or this particular positions and i'm looking forward to see this announcement between maybe or and september and december next year even maybe can be postponed off to. announcement or there's also the next parliament of action december wow that's a long wait there's also a lot of speculation about competition between dmitri medvedev and claim your putin what do you think that is the cooperation between them i mean what kind of relationship are we really talking about i think. you can witness acquired.
11:10 am
partnership relations and there you are partners and friends. lot of people behind both politicians behind mr putin behind mr medvedev who defends the who is the only agenda who definitely has their own interests in some cases two of the charges so i think if we start with crimes of war between mr moviefone wouldn't it be will be not a quarrel between different kind of politician it's by between different branches of the russian elite but do you expect any kind of surprises for this presidential election i think the biggest surprise will be the announcement who. is to move the for mr putin and afterwards i don't see any surprises in doing the surprise is the goal of the company of competing well certainly a lot of people in russia and abroad waiting to hear who will actually run but just like thank you very much for your time. now moscow police have detained a woman they believe was planning a suicide bombing the twenty two year old came to the capital from russia's
11:11 am
southern republic of. according to russia's security service she is linked to one of the region's militant groups earlier this year fourteen people were killed and more than one hundred wounded when two women carried out suicide bombings in the moscow metro both of them arrived from another russian republic in the north caucuses authorities are trying to tackle terrorism they are saying that three hundred militants have been detained or killed since the beginning of the year but despite these efforts the number of attacks is still on the rise. london is clearing up after the worst day of student protests seen in the u.k. for over a decade came after m.p.'s voted in favor of increasing university tuition fees in england violence flared up across the british capital with government property vandalized and even prince charles as car attacked by demonstrators are more emmet reports. we're seeing broken glass a lot of people being drafted in for this cleanup operation
11:12 am
a lot of the violence was centered around the green area which is just opposite the houses of parliament that protesters tore down fences which are now being having to be put back up again yesterday was a violent day it's now being called the worst unrest that we've seen in london in a decade miss aisles of bottles and firecrackers being aimed directly at police and it was a point in the evening in fact when whenever you saw a police motorcycle or a police car it was being aggressively attacked by protesters and also one point the prince of wales charles and his wife camilla scott was attacked by protesters they were on their way. without what's being described as significant police protection as attack that car smashed one of the windows and threw paint on that car there's an investigation into how that could have been allowed to happen but the world cup will is on home and. setting ball of fire they smashed windows at the
11:13 am
treasury and the supremum cool and interesting really to distinguish it from previous protests it was increasingly difficult yesterday to find students who condemned the violence more and more best seeing it more as a means to an end rather than something to be condemned and something this hijacking that message is important to note this rise that has been agreed will treble be about that it cost students to go to university or some students anyway it's going to go up from just under five thousand dollars to around fourteen thousand dollars but that won't take effect until the next generation of students goes to university so this this is something that will really come into force in around two thousand and twelve we spoke to chris knights yesterday who's a professor of anthropology and also a seasoned demonstrates that hardly a demonstration takes place in london without him being there and he said that he. so that's one. for me. of sixty eight come
11:14 am
again. not just short of parachute in prague of course young people leading the struggle for freedom and first the students moved and then the workers this is exactly what's happening here except i think it will be in a much bigger scale right across europe and of course as chris knight says this is not an isolated incident this is part of a europe wide in the event and so we are seeing this violence spreading and worsening and continuing and certainly as i say that the protesters that i spoke to yesterday all determined to come out on to the streets again in what some are already calling a winter of discontent. russian tycoon roman more which has become the proud owner of the largest yacht in the world after a year long delay it will set him back a whopping four hundred million euros and includes a number of healthy pads a dance floor and a cinema just to name a few of the details we're joined by marcus kroll from hamburg is the editor in
11:15 am
chief of boat exclusive magazine thanks for being with us mark s. i just listed some of the things that make this yacht all decked out but what makes it so special does it really have an anti-missile system. i don't know a lot of sources tell it but first of all somebody rolled it in maybe a lot of people competed i don't know if they have a missile system. some people who want to make a yacht cost four hundred million euros it's all you know first of all it's the biggest yacht in the world and if you have a custom project like this your maybe let me say two million per meter then you're very expensive for materials on board an indoor pool to helli parents. a two crew. and how that's a cost to maintain a yacht like this. so if you do you see the yacht is about four hundred million.
11:16 am
let's take ten percent a year to. maintain the crew on board you need fuel so if you refuel once it's maybe you around five hundred thousand it depends how often you use the yacht. then you have to dock your yacht somewhere you have to. clean it maintain it you have been in truants which is quite expensive so you have let me say forty million per year. well and there have been a lot of reports that rim on the bottom of it was not happy about the year long delay even demanding a discount can you tell us anything about that. not really so my information sources they say he changed something about the interior and then i think your yacht had some technical problems but again this is the biggest yacht in the world and. totally custom project so there are always
11:17 am
problems if you if you build the super yachts like this all right well you know if he has the money why not thank you marcus call editor in chief of boat exclusive magazine. let's take a look now at some other stories making news around the world this hour at least eleven people have been killed after a car with explosives was rammed into a hospital in northwest pakistan the attack happened in a shia muslim neighborhood but they say it is likely to be an act of sick tarion violence that comes just two days after sixteen people were killed by a suicide bomber in a nearby town. israel is offering compensation to the families of those killed in the deadly raid on a gaza bound aid flotilla in may the proposal is in exchange for turkey's help in protecting the israeli navy against lawsuits but fall short of formally apologizing

11:19 am
thousand people a year in india as study has found but with huge numbers of deaths in rural parts of the country going on recorded questions have been raised over whether the world health organization is massively underestimating global malaria death rates are just carbon sink reports. a name b s eastern state of bihar one more victim succumbs to malaria it's a treatable infection yet it's dudek small knives in india than in each i.v. . malaria has spread everywhere near our village no medical teams come to help us and hospitals are far away poor people like us a dying at this hospital and but many patients believe they have the parasite to infection. and then for i have a very high temperature and i think i have my lariat i've come to the doctor for treatment because many people in my neighborhood have malaria a new study has found that malaria kills more than. the number of people caught in d.s. committed by the world health organization since many malaria deaths occurred at
11:20 am
home and in rural areas they don't get recorded so researchers was did families and asked them to describe what had happened to the victims a method known as verbal autopsy we estimated that something like four percent of the deaths between one and sixty nine years of age were due to malaria and if you multiply that percentage by the national number of deaths at those you get two hundred thousand deaths before age seventy any year it's a staggering number is specially compared to the world health organization's estimate of just fifteen thousand then more fatalities it disputes the studies saying verbal autopsy respond goodness dignity is commonly found symptoms it is true that you can confused with other causes of fever however the way to accept the use of words. autopsy poor estimating childhood deaths from malaria in africa bit
11:21 am
puzzled why they would think a method would work in one continent and not three thousand miles away in another most medical stuff and indeed hospitals agreed the number of malaria deaths is far more than the w.h.o. figure as india faces this killer disease it's important for the government down the w.h.o. knowledge the scale of the problem only then can they upgrade their disease control strategies and resources to fight malaria effectively in all its forms god and seeing harvey new delhi. coming up all the latest business news with kareena that's after a short break stay with us hungry for the full story we've got it for. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers on. line

11:23 am
think something like sixty percent or sixty five percent of all global reserves and when you look at the other side of the equation in developed markets if they can still even be called that. they look like what we used to think emerging markets look like so i don't think it's very surprising that we would see that emerging markets with outperform developed markets but despite this great performance over the emerging markets this service suggests that investors are cautious about allocating new markets in emerging markets the figure for the third quarter was just about ten million dollars so what do you think drives investors away when investors come back it's kind of natural they may come back to the core markets first before they go to emerging markets but i wouldn't think there's anything particularly scary i think on the opposite i think this tremendous enthusiasm about emerging markets and i think you'll see a disproportionate amount of those flows going into emerging markets that we go forward. they were going to say sion of petroleum exporting countries may increase crude production but only if the price per barrel reaches one hundred dollars
