5:04 am
twenty first century certainly politics is really. he added color to it that is has has been economic in focus now of course libya is really at the forefront if only because they have come out quite strongly in their statements about the feeling that they have if nato street had been airstrikes also built into deaths especially of civilians they really had very strong words about this it's better to hear from the russian president on this matter. those will be a speech like that brics countries russia is deeply concerned that the situation in libya and the civilians we think the problem is should be solved through dialogue not force we appreciate mediation efforts of the african union and the south african president is really going to be they do admit that in the beginning the grouping was sort of random ad hoc and now it is becoming really a force to be reckoned with and to be listened to by the rest of the world to
5:05 am
certainly reporting there from the chinese resort of sun you know where the world's major developing economies have been meeting. believe in crisis is to dominate the tops of nato foreign ministers as the meet in berlin later also the u.k. and france have been pushing other allies to increase the military pressure on colonel gadhafi have a meeting especially form contact group of media called for gadhafi to step down and let the people determine their future meanwhile the u.s. is draining anti-government activists from the middle east and north africa on how to spread democracy with the help of technology but as if he's got an edge to count reports there might be a hidden agenda. the u.s. is providing high tech help with innovations for anti-government activists in a number of countries throughout the world one of the latest developments is the panic button according to the state department the application can be uploaded on activists cell phones should they be detained the software instantly raises the
5:06 am
contact between their phones and sends a warning alert signal to other activists sounds great one question and it's all gone probably mungo's thanking the u.s. government for the quick knowledge you are going to be drug dealers and terrorists but american officials of course claim the best the contentious saying the innovation is to protect coal democracy forces in other countries to help use the technologies more effectively the u.s. has organized training sessions for thousands of activists the one held jews weeks ago in the middle east included anti-government campaigners from tunisia egypt syria and lebanon and as the newly trained and equipped activists returned home the u.s. as one state department official put it counts on the ripple effect foreign interference doesn't have to be a military invasion a bombing campaign or you know some kind of special operation on the ground in that country it can also be
5:07 am
a training and funding and political support given to individuals who then promote those foreign interests and that's one of the newer strategies that the u.s. government has successfully been executing in different countries around the world that it doesn't consider subordinate to their agenda and it's a way to do it subtly it's it's harder to detect it it's harder to denounce it and it can often be more effective the u.s. perceives the internet and social networking platforms as major tools for spreading democracy and really is of dollars into developing systems to help people in the middle east and china get around internet blocking firewalls but at the same time american companies provide. bahrain saudi arabia and kuwait with the technology to effectively block websites when the us government purports to be spreading democracy it's simply a sham it's a pretense it's a lie the goal of u.s. foreign policy is to put its people in public office and in foreign countries the u.s. military has recently launched an online management program which enables it to generate
5:08 am
multiple fake identities on social networks the phones personas are designed to contribute to the flow of conversations on facebook twitter and other websites people are using social media for cyber warfare i mean that's what we're going to see more more and more of a thing from from whether it's governments or non-state actors they're going to try to find ways to use the internet and social media to gain an advantage in their own battle the recent turmoil in libya is just orchestration of twitter with fake users only around five percent of libyans have access to the internet and the number of twitter users there is so small that analysts couldn't even calculate it yet in february this year a surge of libyan twitter accounts appeared reporting in english and virtually all begging for intervention we know that. since the beginning of the war but
5:09 am
libya is still going to be access to looted it but those sort of follow people don't check this essential fact they take all this information coming here at face value which is the role of this riki but you trained activists provided it was panic buttons and now technology scores of false identities on the air now spreading certain ideas the u.s. says it's all about promoting democracy but do these the cleric intentions justify direct interference in other countries the mess that the players i'm going to check our reporting from washington are to. so i have for you this hour we're reaching out we follow the story of the russian mothers children suffer from a rare disease but they also have the added burden of fighting for government health and financial support. plus there are a bleak hue and mystery delivery as to bear cubs are left on the doorstep of this

and seeing from the streets of canada. showing corporation to rule the day. i know it's why is space destined to become an arena for the new arms race first though you are joins us with a business update. hello and welcome to our tis of business some day thanks for joining us ross now it has given b.p. another month to get hitched about the british oil major needs a divorce from its current russian partners the deadline for the sixteen billion shyness will between ross snapped and b.p. has been extended to made it sixteen and this is to give b.p. the time to resolve its differences but the other half of ten-k. b.p. are currently blocking all moves and threatening the two geisha please hold of it brings us the latest. what happens next well there's three options really either
5:23 am
b.p. buy out their current russian partners they've already offered them a twenty seven billion dollar buyout that was refused by a.a.r. the other option is second option is the p.p. and rosner just walk away from this deal and call it quits and it all goes away a listed option is well known at the moment experts are telling us that this deal is just too important not just in a business sense but also politically to be allowed to pull that third option to take place and the deal to collapse completely now and no one really knows exactly what's going to happen next apart from of course the heads of the three main companies involved now they're going to have to come to an agreement between themselves in order for a deal to be able to be done now one thing that is certain this is going to be some very tough questions asked of the heads of b.p. at their annual general meeting which is taking place on thursday because they're
5:24 am
not to be fielding tough questions on the deal with the ross nerved they're also going to be facing questions on the over the oil spill in the gulf of mexico so definitely at the moment i think there's nobody in the business world or you'd be hard pushed to find anybody in the business world to be willing to swap places with the heads of b.p. right now. and chris we've got a chief strategist at here all say believes the deal will still get us three and that is just i'm not sure what prize the russian partisan team and k.p. will get and they reportedly value that country at seventy billion dollars a figure b.p. is unlikely to agree. but well it's a lot higher than the market value of the company b.p. chicken curry has been trading at about fifty billion dollars on the stock market so this is obviously a substantial premium to that level. but again we were really hearing from reports we haven't heard a definitive confirmation of this from either of you he already or one assumes that
5:25 am
you're saying look the market values are at fifty there for seven years to i but clearly we're now into the point of negotiating with devaluation or some mechanism to going to make up the difference and i think that's what we center of the fact that a deal is going to happen and i would expect also given the if you like the severity of this dispute between b.p. and the shareholders means much more serious dispute that we saw in the middle of zero eight then it be very difficult to see. you know existing arrangements or previous future arrangement could survive so that something has to break as it were and i think we're now looking at just the valuation of compensation terms the mechanisms to allow that happen. and that's not how they look at how the markets are performing this sounds like the european are losing its seat down on this point six percent amp it turns point three percent here in moscow and it's talks. negative sentiment across other global exchanges as he has said and i said are dropping around the sun this hour. here are some of the market moves on my six and
