watching r t broadcasting live from moscow welcome to the program economic relations between kabul and moscow and the war against drugs top talks between. i mean on his first official visit to the russian capital let's cross live to our tease. us more on the upcoming meeting for an italian just what all the two sides hoping to achieve today. well first of all the first economic cooperation between russia and that is very important and even though this is the first visit by not getting president thirty years. president karzai three times in two thousand and ten to discuss a kind of a rich naming. who's straight by four hundred and thirty million u.s.

dollars just in the first ten months of two thousand and ten so you understand how bush is trying to help afghanistan more and more every year also with rebuilding infrastructure especially infrastructure that was built by the soviet specialist years ago and that's kind of how it's very much welcome but i guess. there's more to it military russia and the the need for russian afghanistan to engage with. not talk in. afghanistan to rebuild itself and be to develop its institutions capacity but also by the off trade off investment by interaction between your business which is very. military cooperation and help from russia. russia the united states have agreed. for the u.s.

military cargo to be able to be transited through russian surgery would significantly ease the process of delivering military aid to afghanistan also russia has sold eight hundred eighty story m.-i seventeen helicopters. and also guns and ammunition so military talks will also be in the spotlight today but now russia has an enviable title as the world's biggest consumer of afghan opium while the two presidents preparing to address this issue. indeed russia is trying has been trying to get more and more involved in tackling the problem of drug trafficking. for the gander stand in recent years because annual leave three hundred and fifty thousand people die in russia erin comes from again this town so this is a very important issue that will be addressed today and afghanistan do you believe that on trees in the world with this problem the better it will be so.

that the international communities in afghanistan because we are very of been destroyed by years of war and destruction and the infrastructure is gone the ability is gone the civil services are weak and that's why you need to is there that's why russia is helping our police force that's why america is helping your military so how do we the capability to prevent supplies from organics into other countries. and we would have not been so tip sorry state has reported it. in russia recently has been trying to put this sorts of international conferences that touch upon the subject back to you from the get a sense. a lot of topics on their gender today we're going to have to wait and see whether we're going to be any breakthroughs a joint statement that will be made during the day by the two presidents ok with.

me throughout the day but for now thank you. stay with our team to watch our exclusive interview with afghan you know right off the heart headline. she was once named norwegian of the year but that apparently holds little sway with the scandinavian authorities they're about to deport. illegal immigrants despite the fact she's lived in the country for almost a decade. reports the case has led to claims of double standards against norway's government. are you relieved that you can stay in norway for one more day maria yes this was very good one day's good one more day might be all she gets for russian born maria is due to be deported from norway where she's lived since she was sixteen she speaks fluent norwegian has a degree from a norwegian university and even a norwegian boyfriend the only thing i've wanted and she as well is for her to be

with me and all of you it's a case that touch the hearts of ordinary norwegians enough to make them turn out repeatedly to protest for an immigrant girl who's made an effort to become one of them and it's created a grotesque comparison with another failed asylum seeker one mullah krekar former leader of a kurdish terror group cracka has been declared a threat to national security and is on the u.s. and un terrorist list although he's now volunteered to go back to iraq norway won't deport him to a country that carries the death penalty it's a terrible paradox for ordinary people to see. this fantastic everyone loves. this person that is not very popular to say the least constant nuisance to norwegian society is able to stay born my d.n.a. in blood cause i really as parents fled north etc when she was only twelve possibly as a result of a business deal gone wrong although well connected in russia closely related to the

last defense minister of the savior union. of the family sought asylum in norway and when they were refused decided to stay on illegally reportedly learnt norwegian in a matter of weeks got a master's degree and a book on the place of illegal immigrants in norway and at the tender age of twenty five was declared norwegian of the year by an old magazine she had. an extraordinary sort of integration into norwegian society which is also very active . in musical festivals literature refers to. an extremely sort of a new thing despite process the government standing for ironically norway's recently the number of deportations in response to public criticism that treatment of illegal immigrants was too lenient in two thousand and ten deported thirty eight percent more foreigners than the year before and the justice ministry insists the

law must apply to everyone everybody who comes here and apply for asylum said. should get thorough examination of that asylum application. that is the case for each and everyone applies for asylum. but the point is in this case and other cases if that asylum application is rejected. those that have to return we prefer of course that. they do this voluntarily but if they do not return or they have to be sent to the country of origin by force but insists she hasn't had a fair hearing in fact he submitted terrorist style and claim to be authorities and the first he heard of it being rejected was when five police turned up to arrest her after a speaking engagement political party the christian democrats samaria really is a prime example of why the lord illegals must be changed we have to remember that

child will come to norway. here in norway you see in the. situation of. three in this case show me the tree. in the way we treat. children but any change in the law is unlikely to help maria really she has to report to a police station every day with a suitcase in case today's the day she has to leave her home the norwegian government's treatment milly has. brought its people out so into the streets in anger and yes it would now take a humiliating state u. turn to allow her to stay in the country she grew up in and has come to cool home i'm a lawyer hasn't given up but it seems the norwegian person of the year time left in no way can now be counted in days not weeks. but coming up later in the program banking on china find out why america's best in one want to make

a quick buck. brought the infamous drugs kingpin to the streets of the main city. alleged. to make his first u.s. court appearance for a pretrial hearing in faces charges of conspiring to kill americans and supplying weapons to terrorists they need to maintain his innocence the media continues to call him mentions of death. reports. you. are one three. true to form hollywood and most of the us love a great villain in the film lord of war nicolas cage please have your was officials celebrate his arrest the so-called merchant of death is now a federal inmate who is this merchant of death and why is he getting all of this attention with. the us over the course of eight years old to be did this image of

an evil mastermind apparently they have no other problems nowadays there is only victor boot there is no osama bin ladin no al qaida no problems in afghanistan no problems in iraq there is only victor boot the evil man is a russian cargo dealing business man chased by the u.s. for a decade upon the request of america he was arrested in thailand two years ago after thai courts twice found him not guilty of any crimes he was still extradited to the u.s. this november to face one conspiring to kill united states nationals to conspiring to kill united states officers and employees three conspiring to use an acquire anti-aircraft missiles and for conspiring to provide material support to the far already dubbed international arms trafficker by the u.s. victor boot is being held in a new york prison even though viktor boots trial date has not even been set yet the

man has spent almost two months in this jail in downtown manhattan in solitary confinement his only contact with the outside world consists of meetings with his defense team as well as once a week check ups from the russian consulate having arrived to the u.s. to support their relative family has already received a far from warm welcome in the states his wife was held at the airport for almost three hours. the immigration officer asked me if i knew my husband was a terrorist while accusations are flying. case illegally remains in thailand. according to boots tie and russian lawyers his case to this moment remains in a thai court would you meaning there was no official decision of an extradition this has been reason the question of whether the u.s. broke laws in whisking him away onto its soil. has not committed any criminal activity and has not been found guilty neither in the us nor in any other country

victor boot has said he's the victim of a propaganda war launched in america this is the lord of war the merchant of death right and you've got him in your hands right he's in custody it's a great feeling whoops wife believes the case against her husband was fabricated and calls what happened to him a kidnapping the full sky i can accept the possibility that victor boot might have some information that might be of interest to someone but why is it that other countries don't just think to themselves that there is someone who has some interesting information and why don't those governments just drag those people on to their territory technical pretrial hearings for victor boot kickoff in manhattan this week but legal experts say it will be months until the start of the trial if found guilty by the u.s. federal courts bitter blood could face up to a life sentence behind bars just as you're going to be new york. the chinese president hu jintao is in chicago on the third day of his trip to the u.s.

to discuss economic and security cooperation is a visit comes in a saying wait a bank of china and up trading to american customers for the first time the currency continuing to strengthen against the dollar and the americans are hoping to cash in on a port not small. here city's chinatown is a go to for many things authentic meals designer knockoffs manicures massages and now money the bank of china one of the country's main estate on lenders has on locked up particular door to u.s. citizens american customers are now allowed to come to this bank and open up an account trading their u.s. dollars for the chinese we won a currency that some experts believe is worth making a currency exchange of up to twenty thousand dollars per year and while plenty of u.s. banks try to entice new customers with special offers the bank of china might be

offering something irresistible today growth experts say china's currency is likely to go up as the country remains a manufacturing powerhouse the chinese have been saving and over thirty five percent of their income and the united states we've been saving and investing two percent of our income we've been borrowing in consuming they've been saving and investing the world's largest export are currently coasting with the new enormous trade and budget surplus while the us is hardly treading way down by a crushing fourteen trillion dollars national debt so are americans ready to give benjamin franklin the push the us dollar. for me their evil were interested in investing in anything i think oh how come not the u.s. dollar. bill goldman sachs already owns that and instead embrace now is a dong you find surprising that americans are swapping dollars for you know american currency chinese currency what is in the price because that's what all of

the papers outright is going to take over and it's doing so well. it's holding china's money becomes as trendy as holding the i pods it manufactures economist max wolf says the yuan may eventually become a. to be reckoned with if wealthy people around the world or in the us begin to hold their money in chinese currency renminbi gwan and they associate it with wealth may associate with a good investment it legitimizes and jacks up the usage in the acceptance of the chinese currency. as with any gamble banking on the one does have its risks us private consumer takes one side of the bet the bank of china takes us out of the bet fair the only thing is the bank of china makes a decision on how valuable do you want us. as more americans flock to china town some may be looking to satisfy an appetite for session one or more peking duck others possibly seeking economic security in a foreign currency. r.t.
