she's literally salute you this is a very significant event for our country. with the united states americans have gone their way we also have finished these procedures with this story can you arms reduction treaty between moscow and washington is becoming as real as ever after the russian president gratification documents. russia's parliament considers a new color coded warning system to prevent future terror attacks this following the deadly suicide blast at moscow's airport on monday. and as the aftershocks. roll through the greater middle east analysts draw parallels with the last decade's colored revolution revolution in the post of soviet space.

a very warm welcome to you this is r.t. a key nuclear reduction treaty between russia and the us has now finally been fully approved by moscow president dmitri medvedev signed the start of ratification document on friday the last step in a lengthy process involving both sides the agreement could come into force as early as next month after an exchange is made between russia's foreign minister and the u.s. secretary of state. is going to has more on this. only a form of formal exchange off documents between the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov and us secretary of state hillary clinton is left before the treaty can officially step into power that's already planned as we're hearing for the fourth or fifth of february in munich. this is

a very significant event for our country due to agreements we have with the united states as americans have gone their way we also have finished these procedures both chambers of our parliament ratified the start treaty certain remarks were taken into consideration to satisfy the partisans on both sides will be the most significant thing is that after the exchange of ratification papers between our foreign ministers it will define the size of cutting nuclear arsenals for the next ten years speaking on a separate issue president meeting with you've also said that russia is keen to continue the negotiations on the euro defensive project just awaiting for nato reaction on this proposal but this is a historical deal the third such treaty between moscow and washington the first two were sorry back in one thousand nine hundred one and in one thousand nine hundred three with this latest one is set to reduce the number of strategic arms on both sides by over one third so it's

a significant step both in the relations between the two countries and in terms of global security sure the negotiations lasted initially for over a year then it took around nine months for the treaty to be ratified after he was signed by the two presidents of the us congress did make some special statements as they're called are non-binding there will not affect the implementation of the treaty basically the congress outlined washington's right to modernize the remaining strategic forces and also. said that the studio not i thought that u.s. missile defense plan. after it. ratified by the state congress this week the state duma first try to fight it and then the federation council levy deputies have also made a special statement to first of all that securing moscow's rights to step out of this agreement if the writings by a u.s. missile defense plans in europe and secondly they have outlined that the these

recommendations and statements made by the u.s. congress are non-binding and they do not free washington from its obligations as a pedo in the street so to us these are once again non-binding recommendations and statements they will not affect the actual implementation of the treaty we're just waiting for the formal exchange of documents now which will officially put it into force and that could happen as soon as early february. let's get some more analysis and insight on this speech under a call from the president of the new foundation here in moscow so the treaty negotiations they were very long and they ended with both sides adopting ratification resolutions that offered rather different interpretations do you think the sides really are shoulder to shoulder on this issue. while i think what is important is the man that you're able to come. you're able to agree on some

fundamentals of course there are differences and i think that in the way you. will depend on the overall state of political relations between moscow and washington even the political relations i get some better probably will not. remember about differences if interpretations that we have a right now if relations to go sour are definitely these differences will manifest themselves. let's talk about the more more global perspective here t. think you think this signing here this mutual cooperation between moscow and washington d. . if you could set an example to other countries could they also start to make efforts to reduce their nuclear stockpiles. well i think that the good thing is that both moscow and washington demonstrated that they're serious. about reducing their nuclear arsenal so they're committed so other. countries

probably know vilified fewer excuses not to make their own steps in the direction of did all nuclear world of course arsenals us to much bigger than other euclid's states but different the demonstrated that we're headed to call were all part of the distance you mentioned a few moments ago to this signing between moscow and washington and the fact that medvedev has now signed it today as well the new ratified start treaty it's a good sign for the mean time with relations between russia and america but what does the future hold for the two biggest boys on the block off to the start is is properly and officially adopted. well i think that what we did was start we schemed the milk or we reached a ceiling to the relationship because we can say a lot of good things about start but start this year which for those the over old pattern of the old cold war lords or so right now the challenge is to go beyond

this lordship to break old old the old paradigm of the story to american and there are some american relations. the president and you're right the foundation live in moscow thank you. russia's parliament is considering a new anti terror warning system following the deadly suicide bombing at moscow's dome and that happened on monday president to me treatment has already fired several officials over security lapses which allowed the tragedy to happen. now has more from inside the state to. as it stands right now russia does not have a unified system which will allow the country and the security services in the country to act together in unison in case of a terror threat now that the system will be somewhat similar to the american system of warning basically there will be three levels of terror threat which will be imposed in the country first level color coded blue will mean an increased level of

a terror attack a second level yellow will mean a high level and the third to find out will be color coded red and it will be critical level also federal security service has proposed that a certain unified governmental body be created in order to act where that when and if any of these terror levels will be imposed on the country you know just look how much we needed this system in light of the demanded of attack you know they're trying to find the culprits and they will find them and the culprits will be punished some have already been punished but what everyone is seeing is that there was no relevant information and now according to the rules we will have to inform the society both the threats facing the russian government has allocated more than one hundred twenty million rubles to help the families of the victims and the wounded some of that money will go towards the funerals which are being held today in moscow and in the moscow region and of course a lot of that money will also go towards treatment of the wounded horses who are

still in hospitals more than one hundred people remain hospitalized and are being treated for their wounds which they received in the terror attack and my call the good son a boy has met with some of them devout muslims these to france usually pray five times a day but the judge did have a blast. ever since multiple shrapnel wounds bound them to hospital beds they've been praying nonstop. for is that i never have to witness such carnage again they came to the airport to pick up their reality flying in from. him is the explosion by several minutes i still can't make sense of what happened. people who did it come up possibly call themselves muslims a true muslim should be striving to help others not killing innocent people those who did it was france are for it. yet for many of those whose life was damaged by the blast the promise of the almighty's routh is not enough the domodedovo airport had already been implicated in terrorist attacks in two thousand and four when two

passenger jets were blown up me there. do you mean everyone who is in charge and makes decisions in the company or in the airport management must face justice some of. the some russians vented their anger with mullen foresman for not being able to prevent their attack others through the initiative into their own hands hundreds of volunteers turned out bad blood donating stations pawel is a first comer and the explosion really seemed to prick his conscience because we're going from when something like this happened before i was concerned like everybody else but i never does anything to help but based on the thought i had to get involved instead of just bashing our security services and blogs. escaping while the tragedy at the airport prompted many russians to ask what they can do for their country improving security is still the main thing their country can do for them some of the artsy moscow where you are with r.t.

and still to come your way in just a few minutes. only an eighty eight in brazil or an idea here see the deal of wall street as high jack watching us governmental report names those responsible for the financial crisis but few americans believe it's likely to make any difference. tens of thousands of angry protesters have continued to clash with police in cairo on the third day of violence there. it comes as internet access all across egypt is completely shut down and a mobile phone services are reportedly off in certain regions at least seven people have been killed during that time while it was inspired by the month long chaos in tunisia where uprising saw the leader deposed eighteen killed than shuffling off the cabinet as r.t.

as i see shuster reports the images of angry protests in north africa for some striking parallels with places elsewhere. georgio two thousand and three. and ukraine two thousand four. killed just on two thousand and five. and egypt twenty eleven i think these are all completely different revolts well think again and not only because they're raised fist was one of their symbols if you look more closely you look at the so-called people who are leading this are being coached in the they're being coached by u.s. intelligence services the same way the orange revolution was in the roles revolution with saakashvili and in georgia a string of revolutions some bloodless some not rock the boat soviet space at the

beginning of the twenty first century there were a number of common fact is an uprising against the regime rooted in a popular dissatisfaction with standards of living can stick collective name colored revolutions amazingly the outcomes have been quite similar to six years ago key of independence square was the birthplace of the orange revolution it promised a new dawn and major changes for the country but ultimately all aspirations came to nothing. lawyer goody goody sudan is one of those disenchanted with the outcome of the orange make over. he says the bright promises of the revolutions leaders have in reality pushed the country into an abyss. and corruption in greece the country became divided on the. issue was nothing changed for the better it changed only to the words. of the next elections revolutionary hero received only five percent of

the world the lowest percentage for acting president of the world it was a similar story in georgia where they had the optimism of the rose revolution soon gave way to disappointment and eventually to mass protests their anger with president saakashvili was met with a response that was all too familiar as gas grenades and water cannons were used to quell the unrest and then killed just on the revolution of two thousand five. hundred soured last year or so yet another popular revolt but those falls dawns and bitter lessons are far from the minds of those clamoring for change in north africa . who are no danger emerges when the power overturning the government which they thought illegal and autocratic like in the case of tunisia and egypt does not have a political platform and a government apt to put things in order in the country and i do danger lies in the personality of those who would desire to use the revolutions which happened in the arab world we have to take care that the far right or any other forces with an

increasingly stick mood will not take advantage of the situation if those are really people's movements they should not have let anyone in to deal with their theirs and that's what artists experts agree that it may take some time before the world will see whether the revolts indonesia and egypt will change things for the better in these countries just as they have a common opinion that if these uprising is flawed europe will be the first to suffer from waves of immigrants. have ski odyssey yes but. remember you can have your say on. story on our website. let's have a look at some of the feedback we've pursued her from us so far and one of our viewers named fred he's been in talks and he says that the orange and red revolutions but by the u.s. and israel but what's happening in egypt and lebanon on our part we anti american and anti israel policies and an embarrassment to the u.s.

that's a comment from one of our viewers fred you can get involved in the debate by leaving your comments on that or any other. dot com. it's. a u.s. government panel has issued a report which says the financial crisis was avoidable citing numerous mistakes behind it it comes several months after new regulatory rules were imposed to prevent another meltdown but as a long list has been finding out many say washington will never learn from its own mistakes. it wasn't so long ago the world was reeling from the financial crisis

and in the financial capital of the world hard hit americans were calling for heads to roll on wall street and many blamed irresponsible and illegal actions of big bankers for the economy's near collapse because i did that if he did that if he did that we. it was born from this nasty us president formed a bipartisan commission to get to the bottom of the crisis. it is our hope that together we can rebuild the american people's belief in a financial system the puts americans to work over a year. or they heard from stewards of the economy the most important lesson of this crisis is we have to end too big to fail they heard from c.e.o.'s of investment banks anyone who says i wouldn't change a thing i think is crazy. now the meltdown panel believes the answers to this outrage can be found here in five hundred plus pages of their findings it gives of

enough room to point the finger everywhere for a crisis they say was avoidable while blame is directed it wall street that's where we are right now the irony is though the new york stock exchange is here that's what you see behind me most of the big banks and investment firms people associate with the financial crisis are even here anymore they're spread out all over new york city so just as wall street has become merely a symbol of the american financial industry so too is washington condemnation of it like we're seeing in this report the reality is we've seen this all before we've already seen congressional hearings where u.s. lawmakers interrogated bankers we've heard lawmakers threaten those in charge of the economy yet no one on wall street or that was watching over finance has faced criminal charges no one has really been held accountable and by many accounts nothing has changed about the natural practices and now nearly three years after the crisis the opportunity for this commission to sway public opinion and make any

difference to those practices has seemingly passed it by the chipper so the moments those political moments when everything comes together and you can pass this kind of comprehensive reform legislation or finesse a little bubbles and they don't last very long and when mr bush. so for the american people who wanted wall street held responsible these guys have looted the american economy the global economy they may not get the justice they're looking for five hundred pages and a year later a world once sent reeling by a financial system on the verge of collapse. maybe no more protected from it happening again i'm not sure that we can prevent it from happening again more in mr r.t. new york. meantime jerrold so until you the director of the trends research institute he says that the latest report is just nothing new it's more than a just nothing i suppose a bit wrong but so what washed the culprits of blame. i mean come on only an eighty

eight in brazil or an idealogue can see the deal of the year wall street has hijacked was it's a whitewash like all the rest of them you know what's going to happen is they say no heads roll you see goldman sachs gets they get a slap on the wrist compared to their earnings bank of america gets fined for they had dirty dealings no heads roll the only heads of their research roles are we the people and that's the way the deal words the police have become nothing more that enforces the crime bosses the big guys are off limits don't touch them they had a white shoe a boy's and they can't bust the gangs on the streets it suits and wiley so who do they go after they go after us look this has been going on a long time these commissions are nothing more than white washes who's running the commissions the republicans are the democrats the people who take the money from

these stock brokerage firms from these investment firms but they have nice language for it they call them campaign contributions could any adult say rides and. now twenty one minutes past the hour here in the russian capital you wait r t let's check out some other headlines from around the world now this hour an explosive killed at least eight people as it ripped through a supermarket in central kabul not far from the british embassy among the dead three foreigners and a child six others are injured the taliban that has claimed responsibility saying that it was targeting security contractors it comes as violence in afghanistan reaches its worst levels since the u.s. led invasion in two thousand and one. a local residents in a suburb of sydney were evacuated from their homes after a nearby paint factory burst into flames a series of explosions at the scene were caused by some twenty thousand liters of

chemicals sixteen firefighting crews work to put out the place which produced shoot plumes of smoke there are no reports of casualties and residents have now been allowed back to their homes. right outside of the business with dimitri. thanks very much for henri hot on the heels of his economic speech russia's president meeting with is calling for legislation and that is promoting a draft bill to create an integrated financial service regulates it will supervise both the financial markets and insurance companies to industries which were previously monitored by different state bodies. so that. the regulator will exercise control and monitor all investment to do surance companies it will also determine the rules of their operation eventually the financial regulator will be responsible for creating transparent and comfortable

a breakfast organized by russia's biggest men this burbank where we saw the cream really of russian and world business i'm very very excited about russia very bullish very optimistic about its opportunities because of course it's doing a massive state sell off at the moment of more than thirty billion dollars of assets and foreign investors want to get a piece of that action and when it's combined with the potential of russia obviously the size of the country and its population and also the moves by the leaders to reassure foreign investors that they understand business and want foreign investment to transform the economy into a knowledge based people driven one then really that is what foreigners want to hear and from what i sense they really are convinced this time now to get more on this i'm joined by the chief operating officer of ernst and young for a thank you so much for joining us tell me how is the young adapting to the new world order with emerging markets coming to the fore emerging markets

a very very important to us now you know that fifty percent of the g.d.p. this year project to go to sixty percent we've invested over a billion to over the last four years the majority of it in the emerging markets i mean there's been a lot of words how convinced are you that their full real and it will be transformed into action because that's the key thing isn't it yes absolutely but i think you know that that theme here in davos is the new reality and it starts. it's awareness i think your president did a very very good job talking straight and i think you're right he did check all the boxes well this is a talking shop after all this is a forum how effective is it for business is to be here does it really transform into into results well you know we're more connected we just put out a piece of research called living in a poly centric world where we have multiple spheres of influence now and sometimes we're all not going in the same direction so this form is one of the preeminent
