aviation sensation moscow international air so well conspires and flying out except for the cutting edge of the world's aircraft take the skies clear of the capital. it isn't that much two thousand and eleven we have just witnessed history in the making the debut of the ultra secretive sukhoi cheap fifty two stealth fighter jet those details and many more to come in just a month. in other news more wobbles on the global markets after verlyn in paris ignored the advice of investors on how to save the euro zone from going down under . but the activists say a british investigation into torture allegations is a farce after the government says only it will decide whether to actually recently

released the results. live from our studios in central moscow you're watching our team with me and he said ali it's six pm here in the russian capital a billion dollar exhibit in the street near moscow is promising lucrative deals for sellers and displays of the latest aircraft first spectators staring up at the sky a first public glimpse of russia's new fifth generation fighter jet among wednesday's highlights as artie's to shea reports. stunning and utterly deafening the debut of his ultra secretive t. fifty sukhoi superjet stealth fighter jet absolutely mind blowing to watch you die low altitude maneuvers soaring high altitude when it was the noise coming off those

engines was just something to witness for yourself i'd probably have cause and possible damage it's my hearing but when it comes to the pilot doing the sensational maneuvers just major g. forces in this team t fifty i can only imagine the pilot saw his lunch twice today now when it comes to the whole operation the whole deal with the ultra secretive t fifty it was actually a deal between india and russia to develop it ice partners here the idea is to build about a thousand of them over the next decade or so hopefully have the t. fifty sukhoi in service by two thousand and fifteen now the west is certainly keeping a close watch on russia with the debut of this t fifty it is supposed to go head to head with america's f. twenty two raptor also the f. eighteen it is lighter it is faster the technology is more recent also it's more cost effective than their western counterparts and this is the man helicopter are not helicopter robotic system there are many many other drones behind it some drones as small as my leg i mean who knows really what's flying in the skies these

days but when it comes to the issue of terminator and skynet it seems like those days are approaching a faster than ever now for the meantime i really should wrap it up here i think i want to school boy i'm surrounded by toys it boys with toys it's great fun here for us it all takes up a for now we'll go to a slightly more serious package are. talking about the debut of a russian passenger line about next right here on r.t. . this is one of the new hopes of russian aviation it's called the m.s. 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 perhaps appears modern as it says it is to survive the competition. as a sort of mid-range passenger jet it begun 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 they were not were not for us on this market. market part but we hope we will hubs for our whole market. they're confident the m s twenty one will be able to technically match its competitors with a third of it built from like complicit materials and totally us frame it will save on that crucial substance field. at once is to present some. approximately complete one of them or is of course a provisional course. but the emmas twenty one also follows the earlier sukhoi superjet as one of the first russian airliners built in years p. efforts are being led by the united aircraft corporation which is trying to make russian plane companies work together like air pursers done in europe we use the

engine more so the. purpose of the probe suporn. to cause and. to grow properly of course but. it's early days yet but with a wealth of aeronautical engineering experience from soviet times hopes of flying high the n.s.t. into one puts a new generation of russian airliners up in the clouds tom dawson party. party will continue to bring the best of marx try to lead and throughout the week so stay tuned for more highlights from moscow cat power airship. well still ahead for you this hour of the worst oil spill in decades in british waters we'll update you on the disaster that green groups say will have grave consequences for the environment. but first human rights groups are boycotting a british inquiry into allegations of torture saying the government is taking an

irresponsible approach to the case and activists insist the probe is a waste of time and public money because downing street will have the final say over whether or not to disclose the results or she's more and that no 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. held 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 well i would not have gone to guantanamo or to. be important of british intelligence services i spoke to british intelligence officers quite regularly. in program in guantanamo and

they were physically present when i was being abused he saw my. lecture. me they saw. 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 a prisoner would suffer 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 there's 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. you know ministers were very senior officials authorised agents to participate and in situations where it was more likely than not the torture 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 has angered human rights groups so much that they've refused to give evidence or go to inquiry meetings. there's also controller c. 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 mark pointed powerful people including tony blair jack straw and david miliband have refused to reveal whether they knew that policy led to a number of people being tortured that the ministers and agents who wrote 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

anybody would get radicalized but the types of torture took place however when the government said that they will hold to account those people would involved in torture and we take them for the wood and if the government goes against. it it's going to be in secret you will get to see those people involved in the torture and then people will lose. any supporting 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 and that a second one will be necessary at vast 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 they said whatever happens it's clear we haven't heard the last of britain's

involvement in torture you are at it r.t. . global markets have taken a nosedive after the leaders in the strongest economies fail to calm the deepening crisis or merkel and nicolas sarkozy called for the creation of a central economic party which would ensure euro zone members take more financial responsibility but they brushed aside suggestions on expanding the e.u. bailout fund or releasing euro bonds to help keep the single currency afloat artie's dental reports. the key decision is they have announced a single united eurozone government they also announced a corporation tax 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 president of france faces an election next year where he's already trailing behind his rivals and suspects this may make him even more important because the people of europe but

in polls in a new polls they say that they. are european integration angela merkel the chancellor of germany says they showed great courage to do this and they dismissed the use of euro bourne's which many have said would be the solution agreed eventually they said the euro notes a miracle there not a cure and france and germany won't guarantee all the countries that so they refuse to bail out the royal problems in countries like italy and spain they also denounce the rumors and speculation and said they'd fight against this the rumors that they say are trying to bring down the euro tax on financial transactions was also announced. that the purpose was to harmonize economies and taxes across europe so a very wide ranging proposals on offer here. well for more now and now with this i

should say we're joined live from frankfurt by political analyst and author of the god of money f william and thanks for being with us merkel and sarkozy want to thank you all live economic government but how effective would it be well the other countries of the eurozone even accept something like that. well i think the collective economic government that america and sarkozy are talking about is really a desperate political ploy to try to create the illusion of stability where the underlined stability doesn't yet exist there is no political will not in germany nor in the rest of the eurozone countries for as surrendering national sovereignty to a collective entity that has any decision power so it's simply a shimmer that's being thrown out there to try to calm the markets if a centralised economic government isn't the right approach to saving the euro what is that. well i have to laugh at the term collective economic government from

the heads of state of france and germany it sounds like a throwback to these old soviet union air or something. the alternative really is is to get. stable export market relations i think above all with russia the central asian republics china and the rest of asia in the middle east and if that is created then you can have a growth vector that leads you out of this debt impasse that the eurozone countries are in without that and so long as as the dollar system dominates international financial relations that moody's standard and poor's do the rating on sovereign debt for european union countries and that there is no independent european credit rating agency and there isn't is no. growth perspective and only austerity there is no out to this crisis never think that there is one in expanse and. then

an injection of euro bonds into the market after slightly what berlin and paris have refused to do here why is that. well it goes right to the fundamentals of the sovereignty the euro was created as a rotten compromise back when the berlin wall collapsed in the early ninety's and italy and france to impose the demands of the master treaty on helmut kohl back and that era. the germans resisted it fiercely initially until the german banks figured out they might become the winners of this new euro concept and then cold shifted his position dramatically toward the end of his tenure but at this point that whole arrangement has has changed we have the financial crisis that was triggered when when the washington refused to bail out lehman brothers september two thousand and eight that has created shock waves around the world and now you have a competition between the euro and the dollar as to which currency is going to go down faster and there is no alternative reserve currency to replace it so. really

it's a. the euro wound idea a single bond that underwrites or that is underwritten for all euro zone member countries is simply not coherent with the concepts of national sovereignty which the governments of germany france and the other member countries tenaciously hold on to as i can understand do you think marco and sarkozy i mean they obviously made it quite clear their lack of faith in euro bonds as solution to the crisis is not justified approach considering the e.u.'s financial woes. if the the financial markets they hedge funds out of new york and others would love to have a euro bond because then they could just have a heyday but. i don't see that happening any time soon it would require a major. revision of the european union treaty to allow that

surrender of sovereignty the bureaucrats in brussels have been agitating for this back from the days of jacques to lower so that they would have an independent non-elected financial power over the the member governments of the european union so until that. that dysfunction is resolved and that's a major major political question that i think is perhaps one or two decades away in in the e.u. this question of national sovereignty versus a united states of europe i don't think we're going to see anything but a series of patchwork compromises just briefly the duros downs debt bubble this seems to be expanding and expanding is this going to burst the bench ellie do you think that the euro is in fact doomed. i. i think the commitment of especially germany and france to not allow the euro to be doomed is enormously strong because they they view their economic industrial future germany

as the leading exportation. internationally today is tied to a stable year old or a euro that is the basis of that trade and especially sixty six percent of the trade of the eurozone countries is intra european union within the european union so it has many strong economic arguments in favor of it keep in mind that the explosion of the debt has very much to do with the explosion of interest rate perceived risk that was triggered when the moody's and standard and poor's downgraded the debt sovereign debt of greece more than a year ago just when the e.u. member countries that you council agreed on a rescue action for greece and that was a politically motivated motivated act in my view driven by the fear that the dollar was about to go into freefall the chinese were talking about the. disinvesting from dollar assets u.s. treasuries and so forth and strengthening their profile within the euro so just at

that moment standard and poor's downgraded greece to junk bond status and that triggered the explosion of interest rates which makes the euro land dept of the of these countries portugal greece and so forth virtually unplayable so a solution has to be found that deals with that and i think they of course no doubt that they're causing many waves in the financial world these days lie from frank part political analyst and author of william and out my theory thank you. tehran says it's ready to resume international negotiations on its disputed nuclear program the islamic state sees russia for its as key to restarting the talks that's according to the iranian foreign minister on a visit to moscow throngs currently under four sets of u.n. sanctions. has more. well sure of course has always been against this approach to the iranian nuclear genda saying that the only way out is a diplomatic one and that enforcing further sanctions on iran would only worsen the

situation and it's 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 in the return all the reigning officials to the negotiation table in return for a gradual removal of the un imposed sanctions against iran of the iranian side as such would 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. 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's 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. it's twenty minutes past the hour still ahead new evidence of negligence workers that's a regime of plan say but proving system was doomed to fail before the facility was hit by from march tsunami. the oil giant shelves still doesn't know what caused the leak at one of its platforms the company was. forced to admit it's responsible for the worst spill and british waters for more than a decade and out through thirteen hundred barrels have week so far so confirmed it's still struggling to control

a second rate but that the first pipe rupture is now under control and the flow of oil into the sea is down to one barrel a day greenpeace has criticised the company for taking too long to make information about the spill public. energy analysts from the environmental organisation but for a lack of transparency is a worrying sign. is that you create government has been rather small in its roots or even your breasts. against the kinds of things approved happened in the last year. this particular spill calls for all those question it's a. year for. growth. on its. own or so sure wasn't. difficult.

because of all the marine growth in the us and all it shows using dispersants isn't while controversial. on the use is questionable because while they do. difficult for. actual. government authorities even so the story is still caught in the pool don't have adequate information points i'm sure certainly i'm sure. about a lot cheryl has some. very small bits of information and there's been no official statements coming from more. members of the company. which there is currently question susan is through which the company. so let's take a look at some other stories from around the world this hour an explosion in southeast turkey close to the iraqi border has killed eight soldiers and wounded

several others turkish officials say the troops died after their military vehicle was hit by a roadside bomb they suspect the kurdish militants were behind the attack last month trying three people died in a clash between turkish soldiers and members of a kurdish rebel group that has been calling for autonomy of the area for almost two decades. u.n. says it's pulled out non-essential staff from syria where president of sorrow is hoping to end a five month after rising against his regime it comes after the syrian army reportedly withdrew from the eastern city of dear alice or with witnesses saying they saw convoys of army vehicles leaving the area activists say at least thirty two people have been killed since troops e's controlled city in a crackdown last week and it's believed over eighteen hundred people have been killed since the uprising began in march. workers at the fukushima nuclear facility in japan say that further structural cracks have been found at the plant

and that it's releasing radioactive steam they also say that pipes and at least one of the reactors were seriously damaged before the devastating tsunami hit the area in orange the allegations raise concerns that the facility was doomed even before the earthquake triggered the disaster problems with deteriorating pipes at the plant had been reported for years the cooling system failed to stop reactors going into meltdown after this hit by forty meter high waves the plant has been leaking radioactive material since the disaster despite efforts to clean it up dr robert jacobs the hiroshima peace institute says that the evidence brings into question to plants nuclear safety. and there is certainly a great deal of evidence that appears to suggest that the first reactor reactor number one was melting down by the time the tsunami hit so if that's the case that the reactor was melting down as a result of the earthquake and not as a result of this you know need a nine point zero earthquake or something that has the potential to end up in too

much of here and that would put the reliability and the design and safety of all of these reactors in question so when you have a structure that's already suffered a great deal of damage and you have a continual going after shocks at the level of six point zero there's there's been some even higher. what we have now is we have the radioactive core that is melted down into the basement into the bottom of the containment vessel of these reactors and if the radiation level is going down where it's being monitored inside the building and if the water pressure is going down the temperature is going down it's not as though the radiation is just suddenly going away it means that the radioactive material the melted core is simply moving further away from where it's being measured earthquakes even when they happen at a high level they're not individual events there followed by a series of subsequent earthquakes and so we're seeing no that these reactors were not safe for earth quakes let alone for tsunamis. but that wraps up our main news

block and sour cream is here next with the latest business. oh welcome to our business update this hour all the seventeenth is a dog day in washington after history that's when the country declared its own default back in one thousand nine hundred two called between a fall and cold process and the asian crisis russia was caught short on less from the heart of capital says we're not unlike a perfect storm. the ninety nine price just makes me sick of the guy would look like a walk in the park i mean ninety nine zero eight. ninety three percent of its value last week the russian market also about fifty percent of its value but it was nothing compared to say ninety nine zero russia's new going along room for the day you know russia russia. performs along saw it a lot of the emerging markets and looks through its lead in ninety nine zero eight

it was really a case of its own kind of a pretty terrible period really but you had to get through the exchange rate is a lot more flexible than it was before the banking system is really quite stable you've got some money leaving the country but again not nearly as much as that it's a very very different place you know people are investing people are building businesses you know why it just didn't exist in the in the late ninety's we've had ten years off you know there's been a lot of volatility relatively speaking it's not able to measure the previous ten years. as the kind of the market's now oil climbs to the highest level in almost two weeks after reports showed us gasoline inventories fell as consumption of the motor fuel increased brant crude is trading at one hundred eleven dollars powerball in coventry i asic eighty eight dollars the power stocks in the u.s. open mostly high as earnings from target corporation and staples top expectations tell jones industrial average growth over sixty points or zero point nine percent
