5:00 am
the palm of your. question. there are no some of the books saying that the suspect has been named in connection with monday's deadly attacks on the. warheads capable of penetrating almost all the french shields for the next forty years. and we all gathered why ordinary people in america don't share the optimism their president sought to instill in his state of the union address. this is our july from moscow i'm marina joshua into the program russia's commerce a newspaper says police have named a suspect behind a terror attack at moscow's diamond out of an airport which killed thirty five
5:01 am
people a man from southern russia region could be one of the organizers or even a perpetrator of monday's blast r.t. sarah ferguson keeping across developments. surname is the man the source is naming and possible connection to the attacks is rust a bit is not known at the moment whether he was the actual suicide bomber himself or just involved in connection with the with the bombing that we do know that he's from russia's southern staff reporter region and that he has possible links to now disbanded the new guy terror group that operated in the area know in a that that used to be headed by shamil basayev and that that has links to international terror organizations in fact they carried out a number of bombings in recent years one of these in two thousand and four was dead for airport when two planes took off from here and they bombs went off in those planes as they were in the air one of those that was flying to sochi the female
5:02 am
suicide bomber on that plane was also a member of the new guy terror group so we've also heard from these unofficial sources that there are around ten other suspects that are also being linked to the attack but of course these are unofficial sources at the moment what we've heard from investigators is that where they're at with the investigation they've managed to find the body of the suicide bomber they've got a team of experts analyzing a picture of the head experts say that they think the origins of the person from southern european or arabic origins and that's where they are with that at the moment now we know obviously as the investigation continues are going to be trying to establish exactly who this person was who today in the center of moscow they're having a gathering to commemorate days that were involved in the attack in the victims of that thirty five people were tragically killed many many more still in hospital and many of these in a critical condition now yesterday was the day of mourning we saw a lot of people turn up at the airport here they were laying by putting down
5:03 am
flowers and candles we saw international reaction as well we had the american ambassador come down here and the response from russia has really been. one of resiliency sylvia pulls up the money again very quickly we've had a president with feta he made it to the devils i can only phone saying these terrorists haven't pulled the country to its knees and that really now there's a need for the international community to unite it's a fight what is a global threat and here on the ground really putting actions they still values that they may define the path takes and divide even as days you had any pause any responsibility in this attack we know the finger of blame has pointed at the child's will and would authorities there's been full high officials fired already more expected to come as the investigation continues as we start to really find everyone involved and hold them accountable ivan eland an american to fans alice and author explains why russia is becoming a frequent target for islamic terrorists these people may have been trained in
5:04 am
pakistan and the al qaeda areas the problem that you have with those areas is there are many groups that are there and they all have different causes that they are fighting it seems like all these people are islamised what we generally call islamist but they often have separate goals and usually groups have a specific target in mind they've done studies on suicide bombings and this technique is often used against democracies to try to get them to withdraw from various areas now if russia got more heavily involved in afghanistan in the region again of course you might see some of the groups there. go against russia it has to do with the main reason that al qaeda attacks the united states because it. meddles in the muslim world they know who they're targeting what country they're targeting and they know why they're targeting him they're just not crazy after the bombing a demo the airport nato and russia have vowed to work together to fight terrorism
5:05 am
marty spoke to nato military committee chairman admiral who says the fight against terrorism remains a top priority. we were rady agreed that. the fight against terrorism is one of the main iraq operation the need to rush a worker program what happened in the monday he's in even more and other witnesses to dance and easy increasing our determination to work together to fight terror because terrorists as no lack there's no color terrorism is terrorism. and we need to work together to counter it to win it that's what we have to do with all the information going together. following the ratification of the strategic arms reduction treaty by moscow and washington russia and nato stop military officials met to discuss joint missile the fans in europe but to agreed in lisbon last november how to cooperate on the creation of the system the chief of the general staff and go on a card says there should be a clear understanding of the outcome of the project. which is building missile
5:06 am
defense systems in europe is complicated because it affects the global stability reached through the new start treaty the russian proposals have unfortunately not been mit's with full understanding first nato suggests building the systems stage by stage the logical that's unacceptable for us we must understand what russia's final role in building missile defense systems is nato in the us said we should stop and was all the threats and challenges and to understand how we'll cooperate this gives us confidence that we'll be building those missile defense systems together if not the consequences will be disastrous. and russia has acquired a brand new nuclear warhead which its main designers has would defeat both current missile the fancy systems and those under construction are these our balance joins us live now with more details on this i never tell us what's so special about this
5:07 am
new missile. but as you said the designers say it will be able to penetrate almost all the french shields not only current ones the. production for the next forty years now this concept is so unique so groundbreaking actually prompted the chief designer of the missile to come out and say that thirty years ago this sort of concept would have actually been considered a science fiction is that futuristic that advanced now we know that when the missile is in flight you will actually have several independently target for warheads will be deployed each with its own thermal technology what that means it'll they'll be allowed to go on undetected innovate any missile shield now other than those missiles you don't actually know any more about this one but already russia claims to be in possession of one of the most powerful missiles there is in the world with ten independently top of the warheads each with a range of eleven thousand kilometers and obviously there's the design is a conference that will be even more powerful than that and so clearly that the technology they possess and have come up with is clearly very advanced indeed now
5:08 am
they've been testing this for the last year the next two years they hope to combine it with current missiles and current carries they have also today we heard a statement from the defense ministry saying that later this year they hope to commission and put into service a new boulevard which the sea the sea based intercontinental missile now this all may sound like quite aggressive posturing on russia's part but actually under the new start treaty there is there are actually any restrictions at all on the development of new technology so what they see is is more of the terror and rather than anything else and hence the comment the statement from the defense ministry and a totally a surge of calls he said that should russia nato fail to actually come up with a joint missile defense shield in europe and russia will be forced to come up with one of their own. ira thanks very much indeed for bringing us the latest on this either that or there. and that one day on from barack obama's state of the union address he's rhetoric filled speeches being poured over but many down there
5:09 am
president's rosy depiction of the u.s. or if the president's words will become reality or his christine for is our guy the views of the average american. you can find them at the crossroads in truck stops of most small cities in america and just about everyone at some point has stopped in for breakfast served twenty four hours a day. at the waffle house this one in dumfries virginia draws in truck drivers and teachers and even high school students like fernando where to who had just eighteen years old criticizes the government for focusing so many of its resources outside of the country i don't think we should be too worried about other nations right now like i don't like i mean i know there's big catastrophes like haiti and so i do need help but i don't think that's shouldn't even be in the top twenty of our list of concerns. the concerns of the country were highlighted in president obama's state of the union address tuesday night where he also highlighted progress two
5:10 am

5:11 am
propping up the banks and stop spending money on wars they ought to look at their own people for. that tax money is made in america that's been if not made in other countries so it's to be here first take. before you take somebody. at the state of the union address in light of the deadly shootings in tucson arizona many republicans and democrats opted to sit together instead of in different sections what comes of this moment is up to us what comes of this moment will be determined not by whether we can sit together tonight but whether we can work together tomorrow. so what's the likelihood of that happening anything when something happens everyone comes together and work with the moment we hang out together we love each other but then next week the fight over health care
5:12 am
. just like taken a kid. and put him in a candy shop. be good give me some candy that's what it looks like to me you put them together just put an eye and a big kick in at each other again for americans like this the words are a start that our future is hopeful. our journey goes forward but the action still seems a long way off reporting in dumfries virginia christine for example r t oh god was right. and you'll find more on that story on our website artie dot com also available for you there right now find out why these blogs are gaining popularity among people craving for an instant dose of what's going on around the world. and sailing into the twenty four thousand sochi winter olympics and news thirty million euros you ought to use as
5:13 am
a comfy gathering spot for the world leaders has been unveiled check out the full story on our website r t v dot com. terror threats preventing manmade disasters and that we can least revelations the first day of the world economic forum in davos hosting an unexpected course after the russian president's opening speech article or am it has the details from switzerland well it was a speech that began with an introduction by the head of the world economic forum klaus schwab and he introduced president medvedev and he asked the audience to stand and observe a minute's silence in memory of the victims of monday's blast at domodedovo airport and that set the tone certainly for the beginning of the speech president medvedev said that the pain that they're feeling in russia now strengthens international resolve to fight a common fight against terror and he also had some quite defiant words for the
5:14 am
terrorists and for the gathered audience years rick dorsey were sure that those who committed this terrible act targeting citizens of different countries expected their actions to bring russia to its knees but they thought he also talked about other things environmental issues he said that we're just one natural disaster away from essentially complete meltdown he's talking about events like the icelandic volcano erupting that stopped flights in europe and the extreme hate that you experienced in moscow last summer which caused all these forest fires so russia is proposing an early warning system an international network of early warning systems that can predict these kinds of natural disasters so that they'll be more easily dealt with he also mentioned wiki leaks he said that he had read the cables that wiki leaks had released about russia and essentially there was nothing new there they could have come from open source is going to shoot the issue alternately i think the wiki leaks issue should make the spirit of international relations feel
5:15 am
fear even though some states consider this an illegal activity the impact of this story is quite positive as for what was leaked some may find it interesting to others it's no secret as for me what i've read about russia has been nothing new to me today is the first full day. and there's going to be a huge range of meetings as is usually said essentially on both the business the economic the governmental and the cultural having a session on nurturing africa's natural resources globalization talking about the next potential shock to the global economy and are also eurozone survival see a huge range of issues but one of the most important sessions of today is a session entitled russia's next steps to modernization that was supposed to be attended by president medvedev but of course he has now returned to moscow to deal with the aftermath of that suicide attack on monday so it will in fact be attended by first steps you promise to in his place and they'll be talking about how russia

5:22 am
brands are becoming much loved in russia and so you know you can actually make a very good living in russia and i think above all the thing that we like the most about russia is the fact that the government of russia is actually doing everything possible to encourage foreign investment i tell you the unprecedented access that they give investors to the government officials is unbelievable just to speak about the been done in a position where you know i was close be involved to make a request to the russian government to ask for a meeting with prime minister putin to say you know we'd like to buy were moved on and to get that request granted in a matter of hours i think is phenomenal to just before christmas and then for them to approve the deal in such a record time i mean less than six weeks i think is a tremendous testimony to the fact that russia is welcoming a foreign investment and wants to make it work in russia. switzerland for the
5:23 am
world economic forum and general bushnell brings us the latest from the former hello general so what are the key points of schalit speech at the round table. speaking in english she says that russia is moving to the mix of development of its economy that it must be based on people power not just the natural resources they were willing gas that is traditionally relied on i always leave the pepsico deal that you've just talked about will focus on that it's consumer goods it's people driven and as you've been hearing the head of pepsi very excited by that we were speaking to the head of we're told that they've really he says plans to turn into the world's largest they reproduce exporting russian favorites like fear and resin go all over the world so it's really a sea change in the way that russia does business and the way it conducts its economy because at the moment many foreigners would be struggling to find many russian brands that they can name outside of the country we also heard from
5:24 am
microsoft reminding people that russia does have a difficult reputation as times abroad tarnished by certain developments. pains to tell people that they get those problems and that they really want foreigners to come in and they will protect those investments as they've made those promises to pepsi co let's listen in to what microsoft has to say. the problem is their transparency of oral sedation and number of company is still limited so i would like to come back to this question. or a branding crusher and promoting russia because i do find it a few exceptions and this gentleman one of the few exceptions there are a few really not a good story in russia but there are a few it's many positive story so how to rebranded how to promote it more to make sure that all international community knows about russia understand that this strong country to invest. i really do sense from last year
5:25 am
a change in the way that people perceive russia here if last year there was a still a little bit of suspicion and a misunderstanding of russia in the way it does business this year of course helped firstly by the fact russia was expected to recover its economy quicker than those in the west the european union and the united states and also of course this was states of of stakes in v.t. b. all the states organizations that are being targeted at foreign investors that's expected to ramp up the foreign participation in the russian economy. the world economic forum in davos thank you very much for this indeed danielle will be bringing us more throughout the day and moving on we can have a look at how the markets are faring this hour european shares are trading lower whiteish fashion chain asian dam and swiss drug company novartis are both pulling up to disappointing results and financial stocks are dropping after
