for information all of the the nuclear facilities and nuclear weapons strategic warms that each side was asked is in sixty days they will resume inspections on how the reduction of such egypt weapons is going to cause sidesaddle that this is a result of a long and difficult negotiations there were obstacles but they did manage to work as one team and achieve this goal previously russia's foreign minister said you know i would offer spoke at the conference and said that this story is a result which could have only been achieved having a unified approach and a similar view on global issues. that are only mutually movies of course with this with the start treaty has been agreed on the understanding between russia and the us that unilateral views on global security lead nowhere it would be clear the basis of strong russia u.s. relations in many areas must be equal participation we assure stance will have

a positive effect on global security. hillary clinton the state secretary also said that it was quite symbolic that this exchange of the ratification documents happened in munich since germany was the country divided after the second world war and during the cold war in iraq and it now that this exchange of the ratification documents happened here the two sides are russia and the united states or have chosen this location to move closer to each other as well it's quite important that the treaty was a ratified by all sides in its initial original version nothing was changed although as ratification went on on both sides both sides did have to make some winding statements but they do not back to the actual implementation of this treaty just to remind you. it's aimed at reducing the number of strategic always on each

side by over one third now you go to there are just many many world leaders and other ministers in attendance at this three day security forum the annual security conference in munich they will be covering a broad range of subjects here what are some of them. a very broad range in fact this is a security conference is often referred to as the security boss because many world leaders and top level politicians are taking part in discussions on some of the most contemporary and important issues and we've already heard statements and speeches made by the secretary general of the united nations by a prime minister of great britain by the u.s. secretary of state by a russia's foreign minister silvio i would offer also of course who. focused on russia's proposal to move to build and make up a legal document which would ensure the safety and security off of european nations

and also reminded of moscow's call poles all to build a unified anti missile defense system which would include russia the united states and the european union thus letting them share of the responsibility for the safety of one another and providing stability. and a stable security structure in the walled city go off stressed that this stability is very much needed and if it will not be it will not be kept as a result of mutual work russia will have to be forced to do it on its word on its own. use lou. if the dialogue between moscow and washington is used only to distract attention from the u.s. in the eighty's and anti missile defense system we could lose a unique chance to the future an agreement to discuss the possibility of a joint anti missile shield which. doesn't automatically mean russia is ready to

join the program which is being drafted without its participation the idea of take it or leave it doesn't work here. the russian foreign minister also talked about how both the european security treaty and the project of the unified anti missile defense system they're both essential in order to release the al to data dividing wings the left since the cold warrior and some of the stereotypes since then as well but as we found out here at the start for instance for some people all stereotypes or really hard to get rid off. we are proceeding with it because of the threat we face from iran not from the soviet union and. when you look from the former soviet. many other issues worse discussed here as well of course awake nuclear

nonproliferation meaning iran's nuclear program falls in conflict the situation in the middle east and of course the current crisis in egypt with the international community and top level politicians voicing their views and their concerns of all of what's happening in the country at the moment and you go to the conference or spreads into sunday as well so we'll be checking in with us throughout the weekend to see what else they talk about artie's you've got this going on at the annual security summit there thank you. well let's discuss the treaty with kate hudson nuclear disarmament campaign as you now are joining us live from london to get some other points of view on sunday hello to you so an historic day today going to nick as the world's two superpowers put the new start treaty into action. absolutely we think it's a very good day for global peace and for nuclear disarmament as well it's a small start but it's a very strong step in the right direction i think the symbol or symbolism of it

isn't lost on anybody we were all delighted to years ago when president obama made his speech with a vision of global nuclear disarmament and we were very pleased to see that president medvedev really very strongly took that up and now we see the ratification taking place it's a real indication that relations between the two countries are on a much better track if we compare it with the hostility of the bush years it seems a different world but we now hope that that relationship will move forward all the problems that have emerged around the missile defense system in the u.s. pursue all of that missile defense system we hope that those developments will not be a block on future development of a positive relationship between russia and the united states by russia's foreign minister the pact will have a positive effect on the global security but given the two sides still have arsenals of well over a thousand warheads will the global security effect really be positive do you think

. well we believe so i think the key thing of course is is in the reestablishment of trust between the two nations we know that things like the verification process that's now being reestablished and restarted that of course is very important and also the message that said elsewhere in the world he mentioned that the conference is all also discussing nonproliferation if we're looking at whether other countries will seek to pursue nuclear weapons the fact the two biggest nuclear powers are engaged in disarmament process must surely encourage other countries not to go down that route themselves not to go down the nuclear proliferation route so i think as an indication of the way the international community is moving on nuclear weapons this is very significant indeed and of course the way is open for the united states and russia to pursue further bilateral reductions of course here in britain we are very much pressing our government also

to go down the same route not to replace our nuclear weapons system in the next few years so there is a go global trend away from nuclear weapons this is a very very important factor within that process as you were mentioning just a moment ago that as now the two because boys on the block are reducing their nuclear arsenals and could in turn influence other countries to do the same with very collection of nuclear warheads but let me ask you what in the world to be less safe without nuclear weapons in order to deter attacks. well our view is if there aren't any nuclear weapons no one could attack with nuclear weapons it seems mad to have nuclear weapons in order not to use them not to have them in order not to use them it'll save the world a lot of money as well it's a big issue here in britain now when we're facing big big government austerity cuts people here do not want to spend over seventy six billion pounds on replacing our system people want hospitals schools jobs and so on instead so can the world of

thought to happen nuclear weapons that's a big question to. head of the campaign for nuclear disarmament live in london thank you. antigovernment protesters in egypt are still pouring out of cairo tahrir square as they poll the pressure on president hosni mubarak to step down the deadline set by demonstrators for him to quit passed on friday without mubarak making any statement. seeing live pictures from the central square in cairo obviously the crowd over the past twenty four hours yesterday's car with at least a million in attendance there opposition activists say they held discussions with egypt's prime minister over the president and start negotiations on the country's political future again these are live pictures from tahrir square it's the twelfth day of protests it's a crowd refusing to leave until their demands are met and the country's leader of almost three decades steps down all right now let's review in these live pictures

we'll cross over to paula she has more on this story. thousands of demonstrators remain converged in tough square in downtown which really has been the focal point of these anti mubarak demonstrations now there have been various moments throughout the course of today saturday when things looked a bit tense both groups making this surge to each other the army has moved closer when it has intensified its presence in the area and it has brought in more soldiers so so far no reports of violence but we are hearing occasionally is that bombs have been found these rumors are later not true but it certainly gives you an indication of the fear anger and the uncertainty out there in tahrir square now state television is reporting that president mubarak was missing today with the ministers of his top economic portfolio these include the prime minister the finance minister the oil minister and the minister of trade and industry but no word so far from himself he hasn't had any thing to say about yesterday friday's

d.-day and that was the deadline that protesters gave him to step down at the same time earlier today this morning in fact there was an explosion. in a natural gas pipeline not far from gaza now we're just hearing reports that it was caused by some kind of gas leak we're hearing from the authorities that it was not because of sabotage early reports did suggest that it was sabotage what is interesting though is the conflicting reports also in terms of how much damage it's done to egypt supply of gas to israel egypt supplies the country with forty percent of natural gas now israeli radio is reporting that there have been no disruptions on israeli nine we've heard other conflicting reports it gives one a sense of uncertainty and particularly the fear that is being experienced in the region that it is that if egypt cannot control its internal security that this has the possibility to spread further lang also hearing fears that weapons might be at the moment smuggled into gaza the president also from the inside and simply israel

watching these developments closely very afraid that those will be questions that will be used against israeli citizens demonstrations has been held in new york where hundreds of people took to the streets many of them are in our citizens with both egypt and american citizenship they have also been demonstrations in the middle east in turkey and in yemen and in iran and they've been demonstrations as far field as south africa demonstrations in europe and france and belgium so those kind of images of support so we are keeping remembering tim going here for the demonstration as we are today saturday into the twelfth day now at the same time we are hearing that demonstrators have formed a new opposition party and that this party consists of ten members included among them mohamed el baradei who is the former head of the international atomic energy agency the muslim brotherhood and that the demands they're putting forward a quite simple number one they want mubarak gone and number two they want to have

some kind of mechanism in case of the gradual transition to free and fair elections the prime minister was reportedly meeting. with various opposition groups today that has shown a shift on both sides because until today both sides are confirming their stance that they were not going to negotiate with the other until one of their sides did but we're also hearing reports about the need to assess the nation attempt on the life of the vice president omar suleiman earlier it was reported that two of his bodyguards had died the egyptian state media now reporting that there was no and i said no assassination attempt what i can tell you is that soon the most important thing here he is being touted particularly by the united states and others in the international community as the person to follow mubarak so that kind of the only fueling. situation here in egypt. reporting now are still to come on the program here on r t the weight of words. not even mark twain is protected from

present day p.c. two of tweens books are being republic with the word sleeve replacing the n. word some americans say political correctness has gone too far as classical literature finds itself the target of censorship. while the idea of multiculturalism in the u.k. has failed so says prime minister david cameron he's urging minority groups to do more to integrate. hundreds of far right supporters are gathering in the town of luton to protest against islamic fascists and muslims are also there to hold their own rally so let's cross live to our to use laura she is in looking for us now so laura hi to you obviously the potential for a volatile situation where you are. well it's all quite calm at the moment a short time ago a large group of english defense league supporters marched down this street just here and now they are gathered in the square behind me listening to speeches and

music i estimate that there are around three thousand of them and they seem to be very well contained by police cordons and by just sheer weight of police with me there about two thousand police here today trying to make sure that this demonstration doesn't erupt into violence however we have recently seen a small to medium sized group of a.d.l. supporters leave going in this direction here which is the direction to hold the uniting fascism protest which is being held at the other end of the high street here in luton police didn't seem to take much notice of that so we'll have to see how that situation pans out but it certainly does seem like they were on their way to make trouble at that demonstration now the a.d.l. as we know is a is a group that pretends against what they're calling the islamification of the u.k. they talk a lot about how they're against extremist islam but i've just spoken to one e.t.l. supporter in the crowd who says that in fact it is them is an extreme religion inherently and so therefore what they are against this is the entire city of islam

it's a group that was formed about eighteen months ago and in that time they have had around thirty demonstrations in towns and cities around the country but this is tipped to be the largest demonstration that there ever held the whole newton their spiritual birthplace because it was an action by an extreme muslim protest group against bush it still does here in luton that spurred the formation of this group and these demonstrations do usually turn violent it has to be said these these people say that they are against extremist islam but there is also an extremist element inside the which is certainly out to calls violence even if the leaders say that they're against it both of these factions unite against fascism and the english defense league. always deny that they are the ones that are starting the violence but they also say if someone has to go to us then we're not going to turn the other cheek and we are expecting that to happen today so i will or we can certainly see the police presence behind you at the moment but let's let's stand by

for for a second and look at the wider picture david cameron is just the latest western european leader to talk in these sorts of terms about the failure of multiculturalism how widespread is the view now among the new countries. well it certainly is spreading i mean this is not the only movement inside europe that is calling for the sort of banning of islam if you like the banning of wearing the burka has been something that's been discussed here in britain and obviously also in france and also in france the. expulsion of the travelling community of gypsies president sarkozy vote in favor that angela merkel in germany says that the the the immigration system has failed miserably she says that there's just no integration between what's allowed to be turkish immigrants into germany and the german people as a whole the swedish democrats in sweden which is also a far right political party won their first ever seats in parliament quite recently

and we also saw fifty percent fifty seven percent switched people voting for a ban on building of minarets and in fact here today in luton the e.t.l. says that they are being supported by groups from all round here ever they say that there are french people here dutch german swedes and norwegians say they certainly believe that they are uniting feeling across europe and how to use it more and live and do keep us posted. well now as part of a fight against inequality and discrimination political correctness in the united states has become entrenched into everyday life but the rules on what you can say and what you can't have now extended into censoring or altering classic literature as art is more important i reports many americans think that means the p.c. movement has gone too far. america is a country that pioneers freedom of expression but is the rising tide of political

correctness reigning in the right to say what you think people do. you actually speak their mind it's almost as though you have a sort of a code although sometimes you want to call a spade a spade and sometimes you want to call it trouble according to a museum poll the majority of citizens think the us is overdosing on p.c. turning the land of the free into a nation of hyper sensitive sissies. were even corn chips can cause mass controversy in this ad a priest substituted to read zero for the eucharist the body of christ. the commercial was created for a possible super bowl broadcast but after an uproar among catholics frito lay apologized and pulled the plug on the satirical spot during a commercial being pulled is a classic example of americans freaking out about something insulting to do with religion i understand why the catholic league might flip out that's their job

however be able to laugh at yourself folks. the price of humor can end up costing big maybe captain owen honors intrusted with a nuclear powered aircraft carrier worth half a billion dollars was fired over received morale boosting videos created years ago having survived eighty five combat missions owen was shot down by for to be styled gestures and comments as for the man who wrote nineteenth century classics not even mark twain is protected from present day p.c. two of tweens books are being republished with the word sleeve replacing the n. word it's about laziness it's not about liberal guilt to not want to do offend or conservatives want to want to sanitize or plain vanilla is history and art it's really about laziness we don't we don't want to trust people to. look and examine to look at something and then go beyond that said what does it mean what were those

times like what is the author trying to say when film critic roger ebert took to twitter to criticize the censorship he was criticized for simply writing the n word a federal jury will soon decide if white people can use the n. word at work and this as a white t.v. reporter is suing a fox news affiliate in philadelphia after being fired for using the n. word during a staff meeting white house chief of staff rahm emanuel has apologized he's apologized and of course the r word can also make you a glorified villain as was the keys last year when former chief of staff rahm emanuel privately called a group of liberals retards rahm emanuel and i think he has some indecent and insensitive ways of being pale and as of. e.s.p.n. sensitivity surrounding sex has become a touchy subject announcer ron franklin was fired this month for allegedly calling a female reporter sweet baby many say political correctness has a neuter in the american language creating

a super sensitive society incapable of laughing things off a p.c. employee that's left more people biting their tongues for fear that freedom of expression may be more trouble than it's worth bring up or not i am artsy new york . time now for the business weekend update show runners who. welcome to the business program. emerging markets will be the driver of global growth over the next two years that's the opinion of joseph stiglitz who spoke exclusively to business the renowned economist also says western countries will continue to struggle with the consequences of the financial crisis. it's very clear . who are for the next many years.

europe and america are going to be facing problems that we aren't going to be able to solve those problems we may be able to grow but growth will be so when you meet that we won't be able to get our unemployment rate down. and it won't be the kind of robust growth that would be an engine for global growth of course high commodity prices are good for russia but bad for the united states a slowing down economic growth is the solution the problem of global imbalance is that we save too little. before the crisis household savings rate in the united states. was zero some quarters negative it's obviously not sustainable. since the crisis is coming up. but still not enough i'm also savings have gone up. five percent. public saving cisco handout a new national deficit better risk a deficit of around ten percent so in terms of the overall savings rate of the

economy we haven't improved we just shifted from one side to the other is there is that we will see a double dip i don't think in the united states there's much of a risk of a double dip but only a certain. of a decline in growth rate winnable said innocent player. and we've gotten a little bit of a boost because of the payroll tax cut that was just a nap so that payroll tax cut is and. might say artificial support a good thing to do but it was on from one year and that means that you didn't hear it's not renewed. that they could have forces constraints on states and localities the continuing. problems over leveraged. on the whole just continuing problems for nancy state governments the negatives will become predominant.

only was she will be growth will slow. and let's take a look at the markets question markets close in the black on friday having klein for a thirty day energy majors where the top interest was about one hundred dollars a barrel and a lot of the other had political unrest in north africa and the middle east. coast trading down on the day processed however added close to two percent on both voices after the oil giants stated that its fourth quarter net income saw a nineteen percent jump over the previous three months. with this week's trading mostly affected by tensions in the middle east and mounting oil prices circa sooner off explains why gas palm was among the top gainers there were some people still sold for a good performance and but people are desperate and. will. cry
