a very warm welcome to you this is a line from moscow around weekly stories as another round of political bickering in washington as the debt ceiling deadline approaches the leader of the republican party in the senate has rushed to announce they see actions of close to reaching an agreement but the democrats quickly responded that a compromise is still far from certain investor and author john rogers believes will witness a last minute agreement which won't change anything. they're not going to do anything serious they're going to announce something either the day before the day ah but the day after and they're going to say everything is ok but in six months from now a year from now america is going to be in worse shape than it is now they're going to continue to spin and drive us all deeper into debt we've been doing this for forty years it's not going to go anywhere they're trying to get publicized for themselves they're posturing that's what politicians do the studies show that the people do a good politician so the people who are good at playground grammar school all of

these guys are at a playground yet again only it's with our money and it's driving america deeper into debt america's now the largest debtor nation in the history of the world this cannot go on forever yes eventually the creditors are going to say listen no more that's the end of the line you think the problems of bad now you wait so we don't have any more credit you wait till the current just collapsing you wait till interest rates are going through the roof and inflation is going through the roof it's not going to be a pretty picture there's going to be social unrest it's going to be a mess. well a plan to avoid default has to be released by kinsale washington won't be able to pay its bills and the next thing to schedule to convey to today we want america's biggest credit to sign us things we need some patience with washington's debt ceiling deadlock u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton rushed to reassure asian leaders this week that the issue would be settled in time i invest on this british essence china could even dump the dollar as it's may has that comment saying. we can't afford bad
11:05 am
relations with china see beijing holds the cards you know we're dancing to the tune that they play but the real problem for china is that there's no way that america can pay back the money that the chinese have already loaned us politically is just not going to happen is specially when interest rates rise i'm surprised it's taken the chinese so long to figure out that they've been throwing a lot of good money after bad i don't think we're going to default i think we're going to inflate which is just as bad but you know we're going to raise the debt ceiling the problem is the debt not the ceiling the sooner the chinese start stop enabling on this phony economy that we have the sooner we as americans can begin to repair the damage and what's going to happen is where the dollar collapses americans are going to see a big reduction in our standards of living because we're not going to be able to consume all these consumer goods and all the resources that we consume today because the price is going to be much higher. debt drama also continues to unfold

in a year with more struggling economies that being a drag. we should have amputated greece from the euro zone long ago the greek drain away as heavily on spain the country prepares for the west ever its the worst ever over its credit rating because of its stablemates instability. now warsaw admits its crew was responsible for last year's fatal plane crash in western russia they killed president lech kaczynski along with dozens of the country's ruling elite but the inquiry is still a part of the blame on moscow saying that russian air traffic controllers also contributed to the disaster. reports on how that whole tragedy has become a poor in the political game. another day another blame game poland's very own probe into last year's presidential plane crash all but confirmed the findings of
11:07 am
russia's investigation that the crew was almost solely responsible for the tragedy of this point there is an obstacle a tree that the aircraft collides with a fragment of the left wing is detached the aircraft begins their iteration but let me emphasize it's not that the tree was too high the aircraft had simply been at a location where it shouldn't have been it seems the very things that got in the way of the plane are now getting in the way of warsaw taking full responsibility and trees are not the only thing rooted in poland failing to see eye to eye with moscow. here's where the approach controller two thousand metres away should have told the crew to stop descending the horizon command should have been issued exactly at this moment this shows that the landing zone controller was performing his duty in an incorrect way on tuesday. so it statements come as little surprise to experts with some of them saying acceptance of total responsibility would be imposed. for the polish society they've been given the truth and the truth is on
11:08 am
bearable they can't take it now i don't think that the polish investigators think they can pin the blame on anybody else but i do think that they are looking to pin some of the blame on somebody else aviation experts echoed this opinion calling the swipes against the russian side and substantial some of the claims concerning the airport all controllers they have nothing to do with the crash i've been a pilot for over thirty years and i know a simple rule if you don't see the runway or it's like of the decision height you have no other choice than to raise the landing gear and go to your reserve airport the initial russian investigation was greeted by a novel launch of criticism from some movements in poland they expressed doubts about the reliability of the report often based on anti russian sentiment and some experts say it is not pure emotion driving this but well thought tactics get
11:09 am
a pretty scary and i think we're now witnessing some political games to shift the blame from the polish side of i was an expert in this commission and i was surprised to learn that the crew was chosen immediately before the flight such a poor preparation for such a high profile flight publication of this report had been delayed for several months and was very much anticipated in poland it was meant to put paid to all speculation regarding this plane crash but instead it could once again be used as a political tool experts say the timing of the publication is not coincidental this could be exploited also in the political electoral campaign because this should be known that the. interactions this report that issue but if you're a tablet will be use it or even easier is it in the electoral campaign and the twin brother of the late president kaczynski was quick to call this. with a sharp round about the report. the prime minister to say has no courage to take up
11:10 am
the responsibility for the plane crash and has shuffled it off on to his staff nevertheless he is responsible for all the games he played with the russians he's responsible that the poles were not conducting or even participating in the investigation he's responsible for not defending polish interests at the international for who should get to the bottom of this case as this is what we owe to those who died while. still deciding whether to admit the plane full responsibility which comes with a report experts are speculating that this is a fair and objective investigation or an attempt to please all the players in the long lasting blame game. for warsaw. or for an in-depth look at the timeline of polish presidential plane crash visit our website.
