china tests its first aircraft carrier as it beefs up its military machine and starts a new era for the navy pads. police here in the syrian voices who are glad to see the army move into their child's even as rights activists lobby president assad for the alleged shooting of protesters. around the non-business goes in the russian audience here golf wednesday straight flubs will be my six barely changed marginally during lack of action coming out from the meetings we've got i'm so busy more than twenty books. just after eleven am here in moscow and you're watching our t.v. now in a minute british. into its agents use of torture overseas has been slammed before
3:02 am
it had a chance to get started but it was revealed that griffin was prepared to use harsh interrogation if the potential information that was gained was considered important enough well that's a human rights groups to boycott the inquiry saying it lacks credibility as a lawyer ever reports. walking a tightrope of pain first it's emerged that's how britain security agencies were encouraged to decide when terrorist suspects. held back ground in afghanistan and in guantanamo bay between two thousand and two and two thousand and five he says he was tortured and accuses the u.k. of being complicit in that torture only now is the level of the official complicity being revealed. and i am completely one hundred. sure but i would not have consequent on a mole or drug runner. intelligence services i spoke to british intelligence
3:03 am
officers quite regularly. and they were physically present when i was being abused they saw my. government. my according to policy documents seen by the guardian newspaper senior m i five and m i six agents were asked to weigh up the quality of information they might obtain with the level of mistreatment of prisoners and if it was worth it to go ahead amnesty international says there's a mounting pile of credible evidence on the extent to which britain was involved in torture. mohammed's. officials were sounding question for saving information dispiriting interrogations in situations where they either knew or ought to have known that he was being tortured or otherwise mistreated garcia was youth rendition flights and. you know every week or every
3:04 am
month there's a new a new piece of evidence yet another document that's been hidden for a very long time that's just been released that shows that there was you know perhaps circumstances in which ministers are very senior officials authorised agents to participate and where it was more likely than not the torture was occurring. there's a police investigation into torture allegations under way and as soon as that's finished an inquiry will begin but it's already come under fire the policy on interrogation and all the relevant documents may not be made public which is good human rights groups so much that they've refused to give evidence all go to inquiry meetings there's also control to see about the chair of the investigation so peter gibson used to be the intelligence services commissioner the government doesn't see a conflict of interest there but many m.p.'s do i think there are a number of issues with the torture inquiry the first thing is we have to have confidence that the judge presiding is not somebody who has been heavily involved
3:05 am
with the secret service in the future in the past and i think on that point it fails powerful people including tony blair jack straw and david miliband have refused to reveal whether they knew the policy led to a number of people being tortured the ministers and agents who write it knew the public would be outraged according to the guardian it includes warnings that if it got out the policy could lead to increased radicalization. agrees it's true that anybody would get radicalized if you hear about the types of torture that took place however when the government said that they will hold to account those people who were involved in torture and we take them for the word and if the government then goes against that we. will have this session this. session about complicity in torture this inquiry but it's going to be in secret and you won't get to see you will get to see those people involved in your torture then people will
3:06 am
lose. any support any idea that the government is actually going to try to. carry out justice many fear the inquiries that speak it surely will be ineffective and the second one will be necessary at vast expense but there's also concern that. creeping revelations about just how could the u.k. has been in torture and extraordinary rendition will lead to further radicalize they should last ever happens it's clear we haven't heard the last of britain's involvement in torture you are and it's all to be dumped it. billions of dollars worth of aircraft sales are likely to be inked over the next few days that an airstrip in a moscow as the international airshow takes off for its second day was already proving to be quite a sight on the ground and in beer with over one hundred planes to take part in a skyline showcase.
3:07 am

believe if i may just a moment show you over the big a three eighty s. i went inside i want to the first cross and i sat down allister champagne they said no. but we have all sorts of other sukhoi military jets around here and of course today is the highly anticipated debut of these two hundred fifty s. also many supposed to go head to head with lockheed f. thirty five lightning and the f. twenty two raptor in fact the new fifty being unveiled today is so similar some say to the f. twenty two raptor it's actually been nicknamed the skeet however it's lighter it's supposed to be more technologically advanced and it cost less than the u.s. f. twenty two raptor you know we've got lots of drones around here and it's a little bit of serving some of the drones unmanned drones some of them are smaller than my leg there are many helicopters here the unmanned helicopter reporter systems are here the days of terminator and skynet i think closer and closer and
3:09 am
closer now we've got wonderful displays coming up today and over the next three days of the russian knights in the sukhoi twenty seven's of course the russian swifts in the world famous may twenty nine if any of you watch action movies from the seventy's or the eighty's you know the mix. twenty nine was the infamous russia fighter russian fighter jet or the time soviet fighter jet we're going to have the french are here without a fight so yeah i'm on the lookout for the neeraj the euro neeraj fighter they build these planes with such strength in their wings do you take thirty volkswagen beetles and stack them up on each wing that's how strong these jets are to take the g. forces and italians are here debuting some cargo aircraft and we have some themed flights as well some search and rescue teams where they're bringing in the choppers actually so want to show a while ago they're bringing in the search and rescue choppers calls are coming down the guys are flying down the courts hitting the ground here also some anti terror operations going here as well all just seem that nothing to do with
3:10 am
terrorism is just a theme of this now across somebody has a story about the brown you. as m s twenty one it's they hope that it's going to tell about one hundred at least here to the international market it's going to go head to head with boeing but ultimately it's russia's jet designed for tomorrow's traveler his artie's. this is one of the new hoops of russian aviation it's called the in this twenty one and it's time to it is an airline of the twenty first century there's a lot riding on the fate of this plane it represents the efforts of a russian aircraft industry that so far failed to break into international markets and is modern as it says it is to survive the competition. as a source mid-range passenger jet to be going against the likes of boeing seven three seven an airbus has a three twenty both well established planes its makers are fully aware of the challenge ahead we understand. this market. market.
3:11 am
we hope we will. see. the the confidence. the able to technically match its competitors with a third of it goes like composite materials and totally us it will save them from full substance. of course of course. but the image twenty one also follows the earlier sukhoi superjet was one of the first russian airliners built in years. being led by the united the aircraft corporation which is trying to make russian plane companies work together. was done in europe. and you know.
3:12 am
it's early days yet with. engineering experience from soviet times hopes of flying foreign ministry and to put a new generation of russian airliners in the clouds. next week. and we will continue to be here for the next three days just outside of moscow city center the max two thousand and eleven asho i'm a research they were along with all the cargo planes here the military fighters here the helicopters choppers and even all the drones as well that's going to be a special event taking place at this time if you come you'll be able to see how the reconstruction of the soviet field of air defense of the period of the battle of moscow is going to be a flying display of technology and military hardware the planes from that era re reenacting what they did when they drove out to hit the rights who were encroaching on moscow or more details to come here live for the next several days are. the two
3:13 am
thousand and eleven back to you. seems to be having a great time and as he said we will all the. two thousand and eleven following weeks of stay with us in our team. approach. to the future flights. are two types. meanwhile china is taking its military might to a new level finishing a round of trials of its first ever aircraft carrier although building the future carrier suite will take time beijing is already heralding a new chapter for the country's naval fleet gordon chang for forbes business
3:14 am
magazine says its neighbors need to keep a close eye on what's happening. china wants to project power it is said that its new aircraft carrier is for scientific research and training well of course it's not it's meant to try to intimidate countries in the region especially in the south china sea where china's claims the entire body of water as an internal chinese lake and of course china wants to project power not only southwards but northwards towards mongolia and russia they talk about the last territories clearly beijing wants to get these territories and in a later date no country right now threatens china and that really is what is bothering the countries in the neighborhood and the united states and basically what's going on is there is this military build up which really is the biggest of the best is in the world today is the most recent one favorite talk about information technology and cyber war also clearly they're putting money into their
3:15 am
maybe and to their air force the only laggard really is the army the army used to get almost all the money but now clearly china wants a big air force and a big navy so that's where a lot of the money it's going into as well as to teach your forces in other words nuclear capable missiles eventually it is going to really undermine chinese foreign policy because all the countries on the for every in the south and east are now very very concerned the only countries that aren't complaining are north korea and burma. well in a few minutes we'll update you on the worst oil spill and decades in a british waters well shell says it's something for all but green groups are not convinced with crude gushing into the sea for six days. well europe's nations are on the verge of blurring into one well financially at least with germany and france calling for economic harmony across the euro zone growth is grinding to a halt and countries are struggling to stay afloat and the eurozone big players
3:16 am
think that the answer is to force mandatory budgets on to member states were also pledging to harmonize corporate taxes are rejecting b. introduction of debt guarantees or euro bonds the whole time soon investors have been left mostly unimpressed by chancellor merkel's own president sarkozy's plans all saying that they expected more doctor she has odd rub on romani professor of business and international affairs says the decisions are political not this court . unfortunately this is not going to make much difference for the ongoing crisis all the news that came out of this press conference was quite negative for the market the most negative i believe was the fact that it was announced that the european fund for. the city their bailout plan for the european euro zone members will not be expanded and they believe it's enough as it is for the moment the second thing there's no common europe on that is going to be issued in very very
3:17 am
clear this when the markets are not expecting this other bad news for the market was that taxation is going to go up especially in terms of corporate taxation harmonization and then down the road they also want countries to have a balanced budget so the european leaders unfortunately have done it again they haven't really addressed the market's needs clear concise action but what they are doing instead is looking at the long term political solution to this dilemma that they have it doesn't seem to understand the market's seriousness about what's going on no one is asking the taxpayers to pay another bailout instead they're using the european central bank as a mechanism to buy the bonds for italy and spain what most europeans don't understand is down the road when the greeks cannot pay their money back be the taxpayers from germany and france that will end up paying for these bonds down the road the bad news is that we're not going to see any growth and i think everybody
3:18 am
understands that and with their joblessness will not get any better and not anytime soon syrian security forces are reportedly open fire on thousands who gathered in various cities calling for president assad to go on here rights activists claim that over eighteen hundred people have been killed since the uprising erupted in mid march. on a reports the problems are not as black and whites out to be. residents of the eastern city of theirs or have taken to the streets to thank the army for saving but. they claimed it a month ago an unknown armed group to control the town and they found themselves trapped in their own homes i mean my family's. thanks bandits block their rights put up barricades and became a city we were hiding just like hostages and eyewitnesses say these occupations
3:19 am
last for at least twenty days. they are terrorists who gave them power off i told the guy the barricades and i'm going to a drugstore he said i don't care and didn't allow me to go through we asked the army to come and how we are after them. they literally claimed to have killed several days ahead ok the city while many were arrested and others just true anyway . soldiers of the syrian army i live in the city over there as so many of the iraqi border mr officials are saying operation is now over that the city has been freed from own groups as you can see people are welcome in the soldiers as the waiters. critics of the regime don't share this euphoria claim in that assad is trying to cover his own army's wrongdoing by distributing peaceful frame to the tragic protests as terrorist conspiracy but exactly who's behind the protests and
3:20 am
who are the genuine protest is how because we have peaceful demonstrations here we want reforms and we don't make a secret of this but those who burn cars there are different story once i asked the guy the barricade why he's there he answered because they paid me. and they just sent to all the countries all industry six hundred kilometers from the capital there's a said by some to be an important target but local officials are much less guarded . i have a feeling that all those protests have been orchestrated they call themselves opposition they took part in what supports the conspiracy against our model and israel is the only side to benefit from it while it's still unclear who benefits from the endless conflict in this region one thing is clear it's ordinary people who suffer. and while streets may have quite the downing there is often out
3:21 am
reminders of the countries and go in conflict and hard to find and fear remains in the. recent ocean he reported from those or in eastern syria. all that online for more of the news we're covering on the air and let me run you through some of the reports lines are right now r.t. dot com this struggle to stay alive by selling your own or guess the grim reality for poverty stricken indians who are preyed on by the illegal body parts market. plus selling siberia through star wars a movie fat ass the russian president to fund a giant stash of art or d two to highlight the region's techno progress. the oil firm a shell is struggling to plug a second week of a lot of its north sea platforms all the company was forced to admit it's responsible for the worst spill in british waters for more than a decade about thirteen hundred barrels of leaks so far and the company says the
3:22 am
first part of a rupture is now under control of the core of oil into the sea is now down to two barrels a day or green groups sounded the alarm that there will be big consequences for the environment shell that eventually came clean out a victim is an energy analyst from the environmental organization platform says that a lack of transparency calls into question the seriousness with which the kompany is treating the incident. what's important is that you clearly don't and when. grafts. it turns the cones in. the last year i remember these examples fill the holes all those points and it's a particularly since two or three really the year for. growth. is sort of sheryl's and hard and difficult.
3:23 am
because of all the moving growth. since i want you. on the you see is all. peoples well they do is very well and the smaller boats and the gold for clinical operations not actually on skin you are from sort of the government bodies into this they are still climbing up on how the article information coming from cheryl certainly ensures and what we call knowledge about how still in the broken bottle our souls show has always very similar but it's one of the nation and there's been more official statements coming from and it was a more well known for members of the company including c o n with your applause which there is going to questions he was missed which the company is taking action and once again it's sad for the business update with dmitri.
3:24 am
welcome to the program the russian currency has been having up a tough time in the recent wave of market turmoil now the training as kicked off for the ruble in its just marginally stronger u.s. after someone from deutsche bank believes the rouble could win back some of its positions although won't be quick. there is scope for the will to recover and given the fact that oil prices so far are quite resilient and what we're seeing in the markets is that people are still very cautious and taking on risk and even though the. current levels does look cheap and it does offer significant value at the same time of the fact that risk levels are elevated across the board across the world economy that i think will act as a deterrent to a very fast recovery and there will i think this recovery will take some time.
3:25 am
so you the markets now we start with commodities crude prices are rising slightly ahead of a u.s. imagery report which is expected to show at the cline in the reserves brant crude is up to sixty four cents light sweet is over eighty seven dollars per barrel. so going to stock markets now in asia is mixed the hang assange is gaining point six percent well it was gaining one point two last time we looked at it so it's losing its momentum fresh concerns about the european economy are weighing on investor sentiment following disappointing quarterly euro zone and german growth reports the nikkei is down half a percent driven down by financials with mitsui with one point two percent lower exporters also russia and tokyo this is the opening picture in europe and the foot sea as the dogs are shedding massively at the opening forty one point two percent of blacks one point seven percent around twenty five minutes after the opening
3:26 am
investors are disappointed with the lack of action coming out of chinese these meetings between bangalore merkel and nicolas sarkozy. and listening to look at can russia finally end the middle positive sentiment that we saw at the very opening of trading has now gone and the audience is down one percent of my six point eight. the sense look at some of the main movers on the gas from used to gary now it's down half a percent still two percent of the market this is the pricing in the united states that the store has been included into the global standard is these as burbank is one point three percent lower well from a pretty good bank says given the current market volatility players prefer to buy in some less liquid but safe in stocks for long term investment but we have seen is some activity from the institutions which are picking up some second tier names across the russian universe in small quantities their sense of the fact that we're
3:27 am
probably going to get a bit lower from here but they're happy to start by now. so select second tier names are potentially a. good investment opportunity for long only investors for investors with the long term price and in terms of blue chips the activity has been quite volatile there hasn't been any sector out there for months which is markedly. explicit over the last few days and i really doubt this will. change somehow in the next couple weeks at least. the moscow government is getting out of the hotel business and selling it says the operation as part of this year's privatization program the hotel company as it is now controlled around fourteen properties with two of four star ratings it is theirs and comes after the key investor billionaire ronaldo decided to pull out yes it's a rough around two hundred million dollars. you earned during his
