life from our studios here in central moscow this is r t with you twenty four hours a day good to have you with us this. guardian newspaper is facing accusations of double standards from wiki leaks its founder julian assange has threatened legal action against the british daily over its tell all book about the online whistleblower the newspaper was also accused of editing secret cables are detained from the site and that now reports on what's behind this bitter dispute. they were bedfellows in exposing u.s. embassy secrets to the world but now wiki leaks in the guardian has rapidly fallen out of love and it's turning nasty in the original agreement between wiki leaks and its partner publications the partners was to help publish cables on the whistle blowing web site blocking out names to protect the innocent was allowed but sources close to wiki leaks maintain the guardian went one step further accusing the

newspaper of redacting the cables to suit its own political and editorial agenda something the guardian denies one of the alleged missions focuses on iranian dissident politicians and the guardian we. live in when they don't want such things to be known for their own deals they will basically want to cover the world and so they do they cut out everything that was negative. in such a way the reader of the guards or. any reader of the killings would never know how those people themselves view. the guardian reports early have been a is just another political liar an intriguer. but what it leaves out is his wider description of the opposition as lacking organization and preaching problems of

ultimate direction and leadership specific opposition figures are. very stubborn but not charismatic karoubi courageous to the few institutional allies hatami cautious and weak. all editing that seems to match the guardian's liberal agenda as it suggests the brain in opposition is divided something which doesn't fit western narratives in cables about the activities of western companies in kazakstan the guardian fail to publish details of alleged bribery the actual cable talked of an internal investigation in a western company over five years during which former employees caused the company to pay five point two million to agents with in town the payments would influence because our professionals to allow the company to obtain business in other words bribing officials for contracts to the companies allegedly involved british gas and any italy's gas giant that this isn't necessarily the story that the guardian wants

to tell them that there are editorial pressures on them but it also could be simply the lawyers at the guardian are getting a bit jumpy and saying well look we can't accuse people of bribes because they're incredibly powerful and they're rich and this is one of the problems with a lot of libel and the lawyers at newspapers is that they're actually only afraid of the rich and powerful ordinary people they will say almost anything about them because. these people don't have the means to sue the guardian. verging on rude in kyrgyzstan. although britain's prince andrew may have wished the guardian had edited information about his behavior in kyrgyzstan more thoroughly elsewhere some media commentators say the reason for the guardian's alterations was to help simplify the information it's the only way it could be done there's so much material and it is so a lot of the form that easynews is difficult to inaccessible it has to be

translated into journalism people who understand the guardian declined to give us an interview but did send a statement saying they redacted cables for two reasons to protect sources who might be placed at risk or to protect the guardian. from legal action under u.k. libel law being sued is something the guardian might have to get used to wiki leaks founder julian assange is threatening legal action over the newspaper's book which i thought alleges contains malicious libel zz wiki leaks made a political choice when it decided to publish through the guardian a left leaning nice paper that takes a liberal line but certainly in this case it has to be the wrong one and with the guardian's recent publication of a book portraying the newspaper's dealings with wiki leaks in it deeply unfavorably lights it's a relationship that's gone truly sour your average r.t. london. three suspected terrorists have been charged with involvement in last month's bombing in moscow russia security services say the suspects were arrested

in the southern republican and will soon be taking to the country's capital for questioning. more. so far security forces have detained three of the suspected accomplices of the suicide bomber two of those three are relatives of that man a sixteen year old brother and a twenty two year old sister at lot of showing that they have identical d.n.a. now this is back to having known about the planned attack but not reporting to the police security forces also found explosives in the house similar to the ones used in the my dear the moment now the third man is not a reality if he's a he's believed to have accompanied the bomber on his way from the republic windows shirt here to moscow now from the previous reports or by the investigative could meet he would know the suicide bomber was twenty years old he was from the republican caucuses republican in who shared his name is lord now on tuesday

investigators were meeting with the russia's top senior security officials with the state duma deputies behind closed doors they revealed further information on this group of terrorists now a manhunt is on for some seven people who are believed to have. orchestrated the attack russia's top terrorist claimed that he was the orchestrator of the jan you responding. made those claims in a video message posted on an extremist web site dol kumar it was known to be not only russia's most wanted man he is also on the international least of terrorists he has links to al qaida earlier he claimed responsibility for the most metro bombings in twenty turn and for the near ski express train bombing a year earlier while however investigators are a little bit skeptical about this video message they do not exclude that. could

have been a must remind behind the attack and still it is just one of the versions which they are considering this terrorist cells. operating quiet autonomy in the north caucasus and a group which carried out this particular attack might not be directly linked. but of course it will be only facts and further investigation that will reveal whether those claims are justified. we're still ahead on the program this hour for victims of corporate greed leading companies in the u.s. are accused of profiting at the expense of low income workers. egypt to see what's believed to be its biggest antigovernment rallies across the country since the protests began over two weeks ago comes despite attempts by the authorities to introduce constitutional reform to help manage a peaceful transfer of power demonstrators are demanding the immediate resignation of president hosni mubarak and refusing to wait until september when his term ends meet a report say rampant corruption has made the bricks family among the richest in the

world claim most of his fortune was accumulated through dodgy dealings with international companies his money is allegedly in swiss banks or real estate in the u.s. and the u.k. organ across live to new york to discuss this issue. she's from the international action center thanks very much indeed for joining us sara no in fact i was reading that some are speculating it could indeed be the richest man in the world so where did all this wealth come from. well it's hardly surprising that it's coming out now but this is thirty years of absolute corruption and every u.s. corporation that did business in egypt and of course the u.s. military the cia they all knew that mubarak was their man and other words for payoffs he was willing to be a traitor to his own people who have ended up impoverished egypt underdeveloped in infrastructure in educational standards in employment for its young people and yet

mubarak one of the richest men in the world and not only mubarak his whole regime is corrupt this goes for silly monic goes for the generals the security apparatus every one of them are in on the take and it's a well known fact it's known very well by the people of egypt just how corrupt it is and how much they have lost it's also true poor and working people here in the u.s. need to know what it means when the u.s. corporations and the u.s. government supports a dictator like this giving billions of dollars in aid again and again and it's money that goes both to mubarak and it goes to military contractors right here and never to the people of egypt. as you're saying this is been a known fact for some time to people to be suspected and after all that's what they're in the streets campaigning against him protesting about his corruption. understand the three cabinet members and

a couple of others close to mubarak are now under investigation that in the egypt what do you think the consequences all of these revelations could be if they're under investigation could mubarak himself be held to account and indeed possibly punished. well he says certainly should be held to account and all of that money should be returned to the people of egypt to whom it rightfully belongs when this money is deposited in swiss and british and u.s. banks every one of those bankers know that this is really money that belongs to the people of egypt and yet it's held because of course western banks also profit off it being held there and not use for the development of egyptian resources it's really skim off the top of corporations that have profited even more that mubarak and his regime have profited that constant extraction of wealth of resources

whether it's in resorts or industries or shipping through the suez canal on every level there was corruption in egypt and putting it in western banks and more barak's name really is an example of the way in which u.s. corporations and the u.s. military was in on this all along along with the european powers in effect this is this is payback time for that strategy conducted by the west by the u.s. and all those you've been gaining from a broken themself of course coming out of this it's payback time know what all the cohen consequence is going to be in you think as a result of all of this. well it certainly will even further destabilize the whole regime because the demand for an accounting the demand for criminal charges. it's the people will feel every right and putting this forward what the u.s. is trying to engineer in what they call

a stable transition is they want this corrupt regime to survive with or without mubarak if it's still an honor that's and that's another figurehead as long as this level of corruption and deals continues it's fine with western if should people are asserting themselves just briefly though if it's a case of keeping speace and stability in the middle east isn't that possibly a positive policy that could be justified that you go to support a regime that is going to be an ally to the west interest in the u.s. interests. well in the long run it absolutely works against them and we should just look at the number of dictatorships around the world which the u.s. supported and then are in the hatred of the people on the ground who were forced to . barely survive under years of military dictatorship when you when you look not

just that mubarak but you could look at mobutu in the congo or pinochet in chile or marcos in the philippines and on and on thoroughly corrupt regimes where the rulers became fabulously wealthy and there the whole clique their whole grouping their whole regime was in on the corruption the people demanding an end to this it's its will lead to a time the what is being threatened is this will be impossible chaos but what has existed for decades for the average person in egypt is really chaos uncertainty not knowing how they will survive and so in every way what they are bringing is a demand for order and an end to the corrupt traders who have done so much to destroy the country and leave it underdeveloped for interesting here we have to say it's also a real lesson i think to other people around the world to the kind of regimes that

us corporate policy again and again supports this thing ok so to mind and it's important lesson for right here in the u.s. who profits and yet who pays the bill and it's certainly working people right here who pay to keep these regimes in power and yet knowing that it's a handful of corporations who will profit enormously from it would have to leave it there sara flounders thanks very much indeed for talking to us live from new york. other news now russia has to reinforce its military presence on the strategically important could alone and in the pacific ocean they've been internationally recognized as russian territory for over sixty years but japan has been trying to claim them as its own the extra deployment of defensive weapons was announced by president dmitri medvedev. the arms to be additionally deployed to the coral islands should be necessary sufficient and modern enough to ensure the security of the xylophones as an integral part of russia undoubtedly we want to expand good

relations with all our neighbors but everyone has to understand that these islands are part of russia's territory and are fully covered by our sovereignty we will take every necessary step to reinforce our presence and. the order comes just a few days before the visit of japan's foreign minister to moscow on monday tokyo reiterated its claims of the islands that have been in russian control since the end of world war two japan also condemned the visit of president inventive to the could in november but moscow said tokyo shouldn't interfere with its internal affairs the russian defense ministry says it will draw up the deployment program before the end of the month. political analysts told me earlier that turkey has no trying to backtrack on its claims to the current alliance and wants to normalize relations with moscow. those islands matter a lot in. a political the good bit between moscow and japan both sides are looking for the way just to solve the issue and the same time to save face

russia's initial reaction to the statement made by prime minister carney was a very strong and it seems that the japanese side didn't expect such a reaction the japanese foreign minister. made conciliate very statement saying that prime minister was expressing his personal position and i think this is something really unprecedented run foreign minister in a seven ways trying to correct his prime minister so all in all it seems that japanese side is looking for ways just. to come back to normalcy as soon as possible and to go ahead on all tracks of russian ship relations. brief look at some other world headlines now this in a world update here is a car bomb explosions in northern iraq are killed at least seventy people moving around eighty others attacks happened in the northern city of kirkuk to call bombs were aimed at police patrols one third a device exploded outside

a building that houses the kurdish security forces new group who so far claimed responsibility for the times. so these government ministers been shot dead in his office in what appeared to be a personal dispute officials say jimmy let me miller was killed by his driver and they also have been a family member in the city of juba the man also killed a guard protecting the minister before turning the gun on himself comes days after referendum results confirm that south sudan will become africa's newest independent state. police now while the state doctors and other health care professionals have clashed with police in athens during a demonstration against the government's austerity measures it comes as the greek parliament is expected to approve new plans which could see medical salaries slashed by a third and most of the capital's public transport ground to a halt striking unions protested against the planned restructuring of their loss making companies. the talks aimed at easing tension between north and south korea have broken down officials at the meeting reportedly failed to reach

a consensus on an agenda for high level talks and contact late last year when the north responded to artillery fire near their territory by shelling a south korean. the white house seems to be trying to win over wall street with many high profile business leaders installed in top government positions but as artie's laura lister reports it has many questioning whether what's good for business is what's good for americans to. for two decades jobs and dollars have flown out of the us and across the pacific meanwhile the american people have suffered high unemployment and a diminished standard of living looking for someone to blame politicians point to asian countries on the rise seemingly at america's expense the american people have also borne the brunt of china's mercantile trade policies which promote trade surpluses through cheap exports based upon an artificial depreciation of china's

currency overlooked in washington is the us corporate jungle it's become the elephant in the room this is not the explain to the american working class into the american middle class they are both destined to oblivion because of all this is decided by corporate boards inside the us which are now global corporations so those who agree say it's right here the problem started that us corporations hijacked american jobs and investment dollars taking them overseas with free rein to boost their bottom line fueled by this mindset so we do look allies two ways of the sellers are nailed there's no worker movements to you know cut us off from our maximization of profits and in the us it appears no lawmakers will try to cut them off either president obama after pushing to regulate the business community has taken to embracing it here in the interest of being more neighborly he wants to

befriend the u.s. chamber of commerce if we had brought over a fruitcake when i first moved in we would have gotten off to a better start making up for lost time he appointed a j.p. morgan wall street executive to be his chief of staff. and he tapped the c.e.o. of america's fourth largest corporation to head as council on jobs and competitiveness that's jeff immelt of general electric i'm confident that they'll generate good ideas. and how we can spur hiring educate our workers to compete in the twenty first century and attract the best jobs and businesses to america rather than seeing them spring up overseas but optimism can overcome reality what's good for a company like g.e. isn't necessarily what's good for america and that goes for any company but staring powerful corporate money and interests in the face you don't hear the president saying that this guy is running for reelection nor the mainstream media beholden to

their corporate owners the people criticizing corporations it's all about the bottom line find themselves locked out of the conversation like these plant workers fighting their company to keep their medical benefits they argue when it comes to u.s. corporations the priorities are this so it's about profit over people i guess oh yeah definitely definitely profit over people and some economists argue profit comes over america's prosperity to lauren lyster r.t. new york remember there's always more news and analysis on our web site is r t dot com here's what's lined up for you online right now trouble in the home of the two hundred passengers were forced to spend several plane expecting an above ground as the plane circled you know. it was a never ending summer russia council daylight saving time you can learn more about the pros and cons of that. dot com.

one hour heated debate on egypt's future is on the way in our debate program cross talk before that we have the latest business update for you with dmitri stay with us. thanks bill it is the latest because there's no other business update later than this one fighting inflation was the first order of business for president medvedev at a meeting devoted to economic issues on tuesday prices rose nearly ten percent in january on an annualized basis the central bank has already said it's ready to impose new measures to draw cash out of the economy to prevent it from overheating this includes further raising bank reserve requirements and it appears the bank is less keen on raising rates but at its other you've ever seen your economist obesity capital says. the bank will have to make

a move soon. we think that they will hike rates and the central bank is reluctant because of they kept telling flows concerns because oil prices are high and if they hike rates this may trigger more inflows into russia but we think they will move gradually and expect only fifty basis points for the first quarter so it's either to hide by twenty five basis points or one by by fifty but it was probably the first option because central bank so far has increased the reserve requirement for max now how effective first step it oh well it's a first to have credit so. taken alone it's really it's really minor but it's a very strong signal and one hundred basis points in reserve requirements for foreign liabilities is a signal that the central bank is taking this very seriously. going to the markets now in the u.s. the markets are led to negative still this is frightening to stop the dow's seven day. european stocks at the close that

a structure for whatever. i think that the mystic themes are going to be played by mr stewart is the food inflation real rates are deep in their goods if you have inflation and percent which is expected for this year and the market is expecting the trouble strengthening it's hurting exporters but it's benefiting domestic domestic players. russian shareholders of b.p. deny they aren't talks to sell their stake to anyone but even a partner in the consortium that owns half of russia's third biggest oil producer says no negotiations are taking place the plotters have objected strongly to be proposed swap an arctic exploration deal with russia's biggest oil producer ross and after they say that your compromises in cavies competitiveness and goes against the terms of their alliance there's been speculation of rosner's could buy out the partners to clear the way for the deal with b.p. . oil prices are music games when it comes to west
