give rise to nationalism and xenophobia across europe. or the advances from a to a follow up to u.s. president barack obama announced the framework line deal ahead of tuesday's deadline to have more for you in our business bulletin had about twenty minutes. around the world and around the clock this is our team usa lawmakers have finally reached an emergency deal to avoid a disastrous debt default after weeks of political bickering and stalemate if passed by congress the two step compromise will put it back on boring to continue the cheese day exchange for more than two trillion dollars in federal cuts the next decade would do was struck off the back obama held last ditch tense a. talks of democrat and republican leaders are increasingly america's debt limit
1:02 am
over the political struggle is off from over the key issue of how to balance the budget being put off for a later date a new cross party congressional committee will be set up a part of the deal to advise on cuts including tax reform medicare and social security but as we're looking at now reports the torturous and lengthy road to reach an agreement has damaged america's reputation. and help us avoid default debt ceiling nation default and this crisis time's running out the entire world is watching it's been a public spectacle filled with bickering grandstanding and lack of compromise i just i said debate over raising the u.s. debt ceiling created an unprecedented climate of uncertainty over america's so-called sound economy the damage been done and what i want to happen is that everybody really thinks the united states isn't so secure it isn't so safe even if
1:03 am
the craziness subsides it seems to have gotten real close and who knows whether the next month next year this war and blow up again since the underlying causes economic problems are getting worse in this country for forty five trillion dollars of america's borrowing is owed by foreign countries experts say washington's mismanagement may cause investors to abandon a devalued dollar and end their partnership with america is like being married to someone. of the rich or you want to know what'll i do i'll. quote up with this relationship the u.s. will be. the only game in jail. and he is making noises chinese making noises were you know we're alone now in our ability to be. in the world the result could start a replay of the two thousand eight. hundred seven this time washington not wall street would be responsible for the first time in history our country's aaa credit
1:04 am
rating would be downgraded leaving investors around the world to wonder whether the united states is still a good bet. interest rates would skyrocket on credit cards on mortgages and on kora loans which amounts to a huge tax hike on the american people as the countdown neared zero all three big reading giants moody's fitch and standard and poor's threatened america's how load triple a score unless a deal with hammered out and the fourteen point three trillion dollar debt getting higher economists say america's unsustainable budget deficits are the biggest threats to the nation it's like the batteries wore out this part was don't work the terrorists are at our business and what we're trying to do is say we've got a little bit of money in the bank let's pay that down but we're not doing anything to fix the economy and so we're putting ourselves in a bigger and bigger hole not just because of dad but really because we're not
1:05 am
creating any way to get out of the debt instead of the u.s. president repeatedly asked americans over the past week to during the campaign to borrow and spend more make a phone call so the e-mail tweet keep the pressure on washington and we can get this while the eyes of the world have been following the heated saga playing out between u.s. politicians the main problem not going away is america's debt and the growing realisation that elected officials may never be capable of agreeing on how to solve it. or r.t. new york. but for an economic perspective on the solutions america's debt crisis of course live now to peru sexiness an expert investment opportunities in distressed markets thank you for joining us here and as we've just heard the compromise u.s. legislators have agreed upon the juices the speed of the debt but it will still
1:06 am
grew into it so how convincing a solution is this. and we've always felt that this was this political job warning that result was going to be the same they're going to have more and more money printing the debt is going to go through the roof and if you look at the projections from the bank for international settlements in a recent paper they've stated that by twenty forty america's interest payments on the federal debt will account for twenty seven percent of g.d.p. so all this talk of cutting the deficits and bringing the dead back in order is just nonsense his political job warning i like to see it happen so how did this happen anyway i mean why did congress allow this deal that it to go to well i can't . go both parties are trying to play a political football match they're trying to show to the public that they care more about the than the other party the realities whether it's the democrats or the republicans or the last thirty forty years they're all printed money they've all borrowed they've all spend their lives beyond their means so they can lead to blame
1:07 am
this is just political job warning and no matter who comes into power this problem is now become too big for anybody to solve i don't think anybody has the political will to take the pain and take the recession and i'm depression to get out of this mass everybody just likes to kick the can down the road and print money so i think this is just as i said political jawboning well as we understand it the plan includes cuts to defense spending but how do these cuts compare to americans overall all costs. well if you look at the spending today the us government is spending about three point five three point six trillion dollars a year the tax revenues only about two point two trillion dollars a year the budget deficit is now nine percent of g.d.p. and the army is that eighty percent of the spending with the mandatory spending already now exceeds the tax revenue so even if they try to cut the budgets or the
1:08 am
expenditure they would have to default because the mandatory or the composer is spending obligations which the u.s. government can exact down on exceed there are some unusual some of the other the u.s. government who have to default on its obligations which is neither you anyway is a technical default. congress still has to vote on this must remember that what are the chances that legislators weren't passed the agreement. well the chances are very slim i think of the plan was always to come out with some sort of compromise in the last minute and this is exactly what we've got i don't i don't think any politician in america has the will personally since the cut the debt and the deficits and solve all the structural problems facing the years economy this problem is just too big and the easy thing for him to do is just to agree with everybody else and kick the can down the road how will the effects of this deal that be felt by ordinary american families and we hear a lot about the politics of it but will they notice any difference. yes because
1:09 am
here the more deaths there is in the u.s. the more federal debt the more the taxes are going to go up because remember the government doesn't have any money the government either prints money or it borrows money. says the people and if the debt overhang continues to increase at a time when incomes aren't increasing and asset prices are going up americans are really going to feel the pinch because all this huge debt which is now looming over the united states has to ultimately be paid by the american people through taxation so any increases in debt obviously affects the american public because they're the ones footing the bill so what consequences willis financial man. have for international investors and their eagerness to bet on the american economy. while the worst lose a lot of all of this i think is the u.s. dollar the currency is now in a very vulnerable position in my view i think sooner or later more and more people are going to come to the same conclusion but the world's reserve currency is no
1:10 am
longer a reserve currency and that the u.s. doesn't deserve a aaa credit rating it is a joke it is like giving a aaa rating to the subprime bonds before the hold up and if you look at this finances of the u.s. the federal debt now accounts for roughly ninety six percent of g.d.p. and as far as i can see there is no way this that's going to come down and the u.s. has no business getting a aaa rating and when other people come to the same conclusion as i do then i think there could be a rout in the bond market and as mr obama was alluding to earlier we could see seriously higher interest rates and seeing this weakness in the u.s. dollar which is obviously very bullish for commodities and precious metals such as gold and silver paper is actually from a wealth management talking to us live from karl thank you. washington and germany are threatening to take decisive action against the syrian regime which had actually killed more than a hundred people on sunday government forces raided the city of hama with tanks
1:11 am
wreaking havoc on the opposition stronghold its latest round of crackdowns on protesters calling for president bashar assad to step down more than one and a half thousand people are said to be killed in clashes since march through many is calling for an emergency session of the un security council to convene on monday syria is already under a set of american and eve sanctions but some time president of the arab annoys association thinks the west doesn't have the credibility to interfere in syria's. the interference of the outside world in my view can be counterproductive unless it is directed properly rather than just making these wild statements like for instance the usa will decide whether the president of syria has less to miss you or not everybody is asking do the americans have to put this question anyway let alone
1:12 am
deciding it but they seem to be doing this selectively the damage with syria and libya but by the same time they have not done it with yemen they have not done it with other places where there is uprising including battling for instance when president obama says what he's saying everybody in syria and other world will immediately respond. one time among. the rest of the afghanistan situation all of these things so dreams are low and it doesn't give any comfort generally speaking the world seems to be content with condemning and making these wild crazy statements where you know the regime is less than it or not or whether it should be it's using use of force the world can play on all but i think the present moment is not playing the live cards. well with calls mounting at the u.n. for the security council to take action on syria russia still opposes any resolution against a mascot's scale that such steps could lead to and maybe a starts in the area where the nato led coalition has been accused of stepping
1:13 am
outside the limits of its un mandate just over an hour's time russia's deputy foreign minister tells r.t. why the syrians should be solving their problems themselves. ready for games we believe that the syrian should address their problems as part of their domestic agenda this isn't turn a civil conflict and it should not be internationalized as for the situation in libya of course every country is unique in terms of its particular situation the background of this conflict in the form of the school of public route is the secret from the other hand we should learn our lessons from a number of international peers tend to degrees from the street observation of both the instructions under spirit of these resolutions therefore we are naturally concerned the certain loose interpretations could only result in making some of the opposition circles taking their position and order for a tougher approach which is by no means a post of achievement in terms of finding a mutually acceptable solution popstar north.
