to future flights. to the max air show. global markets have taken a nosedive after the leaders of the strongest economies fail to claim calm for years of a deepening crisis angola merkel and nicolas sarkozy call for the creation of a central economic body which would ensure euro zone members take more financial responsibility but they brushed aside suggestions of expanding the e.u. bailout fund or the think euro bonds to help keep the single currency afloat artie's daniel marshall reports. the key decision is they have announced a single united eurozone government they also announced the corporation takes to unite the corporation taxes of germany and france so we're moving slowly towards a fiscal union which is what many had predicted but of course there's one small problem which is the people of europe have been almost because the the president of
8:08 am
france faces an election next year where he's already trailing behind his rivals and it's suspected this may make him even more unpopular because the people of europe you know is because in polls in the opinion polls they say that they don't close the european integration angle or merkel the chancellor of germany says they showed great courage to do this and they dismissed the use of europe poems which many have said would be the solution agreed eventually they said that euro bonds are not a miracle they're not a cure and france and germany won't guarantee other countries bit so they refused to bailout the rising of problems in countries like italy and spain they also denounced the rumors and speculation and said they'd fight against this group is that they say are trying to bring down the euro a tax on financial transactions was also announced. that the purpose was to harmonize economies. across europe so
8:09 am
a very wide range of proposals on offer here. but the measures announced by medical and sarkozy are aimed at saving the long term future of the euro i think that's what they're not seeing the light they want and the mood of the effects are just about to one business expert to explain why she thinks paris and berlin are a target. unfortunately this is not going to make much difference for the ongoing crisis all the news that came out of this conference was quite negative for the market the most negative i believe was the fact that it was announced that the european fund full stabilisation facility the bailout fund 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 clear about 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
8:10 am
taxation the 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 from size action for what they are doing instead is looking at the long term political solution to this dilemma that they have it doesn't seem as they understand the markets 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 it will 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 understands that and with that joblessness will not get any better and not anytime soon. in other news human rights groups are boycotting
8:11 am
a british inquiry into allegations of torture saying the government is taking an irresponsible approach to the case activists and says the probe is a quote waste of time and public money because downing street will have a final say over whether or not to disclose the results are just more and that meant one torture victim who also doubts the inquiry will bring justice. walking a tightrope of pain versus gain it's emerged that's how britain security agencies were encouraged to decide when to talk terrorist suspects. was 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 i am completely one hundred percent sure but i would not have gone
8:12 am
to court on them altered but rather i had it not been for the involvement of british intelligence services i spoke to british intelligence offices quite regularly in belgrade. they were physically present when i was being abused he saw my. lecture. me they saw 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 prisoner would suffer and if it was worth it to go ahead and misty international says there's a mounting pile of credible evidence on the extent to which britain was involved in torture as yet another document that's been hidden for a very long time has just been released that shows that there was you know perhaps circumstances in which. you know ministers are very senior officials authorised agents to participate in situations where it was more likely than not the torture
8:13 am
would occur 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 or 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 we have to have confidence that the judge presiding is not somebody who has been heavily involved with 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 but the ministers and agents who knew the public
8:14 am
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 torture took place however when the government said they will hold to account those people who were involved in torture and we take them to the wood and if the government goes against that. but it's going to be in secret you will get to see those people involved in your torture and then people will lose. any support any idea that the government is actually going to try to. carry out justice many fear the inquiries that to begin shortly will be ineffective but the second one will be necessary at boston expense but there's also concern that creeping revelations about just how complicit the u.k. has been in torture and extraordinary rendition will lead to further radicalize
8:15 am
they said whatever happens it's clear we haven't heard the last of britain's involvement in torture your and it's r.t. . back to our top story the max twenty eleven era showing right now in the debut of a russian t.v. fifty super fighter jet is taking place these are live pictures from the air show as you can see it's the first. time ever being seen this is at the super ski airfield live pictures of this fifth generation of fighter jet the jet is top priority for the russian aircraft industry meant to rival of course the u.s. after twenty two raptor the joint strike fighter. this is developing a superjet with india and that's its biggest export market. it's the fifty made its first flight last year and the second prototype took on this march again the debut of this fifth generation finder jet taking place live at mac's air show twenty

8:23 am
foreign ministry catherine iran currently under four sets of u.n. sanctions what's russia are proposing to ease the situation. or sure of course has always been against this approach to the iranian nuclear agenda saying that the only way out is a diplomatic one and that if forcing further sanctions on iran would only worsen the situation and its proposal is a step by step plan which has been deemed acceptable by the iranian side and also cautiously welcomed by the united nations security council and that plan proposes a greater openness and in return all the reigning officials to the negotiation table in return for a gradual removal of all of the un imposed sanctions against iran of the iranian side as such be very satisfied with the russians proposal of the step by step program and said that it is prepared to open its doors to international observers.
8:24 am
make sure that. representatives from the international atomic energy agency from the united nations security council can see that iran is not interested in creating nuclear weapons it only wants to have an existing peaceful nuclear energy program but it will not tolerate any further sanctions against it will see those sanctions as basically an infringement on its right to peaceful nuclear energy and this is exactly where russia step by step plan comes in and seemingly of course satisfies both sides we'll of course have to wait to see how that plan is implemented and whether it is as effective in reality as it has been so far in words. to put it lightly as some members of the international community suspect the wrong of developing nuclear weapons what what's their wrong doing to try and disprove those claims which of course for years it's been saying are not true. well to iran
8:25 am
maintains its position that it is not attempting to create nuclear weapons it simply wants to have peaceful nuclear energy for the country and of course skeptics specifically in the united nations security council have frequently doubted that and that was of course the reason for imposing those sanctions and that led to a sort of a lock down because iran buckled down and refused to admit international observers in return the united nations impose more sanctions so it was kind of a dead end situation for a while but iran is now saying that if the step by step plan is implemented it will be more than happy to allow international observers to come and visit the country to visit the only so far existing nuclear power plant in iran that's the bush era nuclear power plant built by russia to make sure reassure everyone that it is only interested in creating a peaceful nuclear energy to power the country's needs and of course the bush era power plant which is which has been started by germans in the one nine hundred

seventy s. and finished by russia just recently is still not fully operational we know that it is already working but it is still not been launched and it's still not producing that peaceful nuclear energy that iran needs but according to the russian side the launch of iran's first ever nuclear power plant is to take place very soon and three of those are to live from central moscow. up next here on our t.v. it's good business stay with us. our welcome to our business update this russian currency has been having a tough time in the recent wave of market turmoil declining largely versus the euro this hour six trading. believes that the ruble could win back some of its positions although it will be quick. there is scope for the bulls to recover given
