are news from russia and from around the world live from moscow this is r.t. with twenty four hours a day investor confidence has been dealt a severe blow as global markets nose dived on friday stocks have enjoyed a volatile week amid warnings of slow growth and eurozone jitters and the aussies marina portnoy are explains fears of a new wave of recession amounting. investors around the world may have very little to celebrate this weekend as u.s. stocks and major european share markets closed down on friday of course this capping the turmoil and volatility that continues to be seen in the european economy in the u.s. economy at least being seen for the past few weeks this does not help ease the lack of confidence interest and lack of trust that is taking place among analysts and investors keeping their eye on the global economy and j.p. morgan chase morgan stanley goldman sachs are among the three banks that came out

with reports room by saying their predictions for u.s. and global economic growth they cut those predictions morgan stanley even saying that the global economy is hovering close to a recession and also not helping the circumstances recent reports indicating that the u.s. economy is not doing as well as anticipated manufacturing is at its lowest point since two thousand and nine the housing market is still experiencing a huge slump unemployment is spiraling here in the u.s. more than fourteen million americans are unemployed investors are also very concerned about how european leaders are handling the debt crisis in europe and the fact of what it is doing to the euro zone many believe the right decisions are not being made and not being made quick enough clearly this is an indication that three years after the financial collapse that started here in new york wall street in

fact the rest of the world believe that crisis continues to be having a huge impact on the lives of people all around the world those people that were promised that three years later the economy would be doing much better and now always. he said that there are a lot of struggles taking place and it's not clear if any leader of any country knows how to handle this problem to stop all the volatility turmoil and to bring confidence back to investors in a point there and the two thousand and eight collapse of investment john lehman brothers the largest bankruptcy in u.s. history is on many a financial mind right now is a repeat is sending markets into choppy waters dr jason johnson is professor of political science thinks only risk averaging investor confidence will save the u.s. from recession

a company's that have lost your bill last two days or two weeks these companies are magically not working anymore it's just that people's confidence is at an all time lows so if confidence to slow we will see another recession of confidence improves the economy will the only problem with that is when someone who actually wants to call it or most of us right now is on by china china is not about to reclaim the state of virginia they're not about to reclaim new york city by calling in their debts they primarily want to see america so here i just leashing to be passed united states if the president can sort some control and there's still some confidence in our future economy big debts or a bust of. inertia in the inability right now to get economy moving right now it looks like the chances of drop obama getting reelected or actually are still better than fifty percent which would mean that the markets that are concerned with investing right now are out they're going to feel a bit more confident if it looks like obama's chances of being real like that are slim everyone's going to get more in your response you know why do you want your

ministration my attack. amasses announced it's pulling out from the fact ceasefire with israel the statement comes after two days of israeli airstrikes on gaza more than a dozen palestinians have been killed in the strikes reportedly including children israel began its campaign following a series of terrorist attacks at the egyptian border that killed eight israelis thursday officials pin the blame on a gaza based group called the popular resistance committees for the incident following the first air strikes palestinians responded by launching more than twenty rocket attacks rising tension comes less than a month before a vital u.n. vote on the recognition of the palestinian state gaza based political analyst dr honey alba thinks israel wants to sabotage the vote and divert attention from recent domestic unrest. all palestinian political factions have their mind and a link or responsibility with this attack on the israeli side and despite this fact we have witnessed last night military operations against the gaza strip i guess

that there is a link between the case of policy authority going to the united nations next month trying to proclaim policy is to i think the israeli side trying to use this as a pretext to launch really try thinks it is the palestinian civilians or the palestinian factions i think the israeli military would like to do pull dies i ne palestinian before to go to the united nations to seek a palestinian state we have witnessed for the past two weeks at major protests in israel and i guess to the day israeli government would use that for taste in order to support its only stand against the government it's the opposite case now i see i see you now there is really able to be more united against the palestinians in this piece i guess that netanyahu government and his coalition they would use this attack so you might be there only for decades that will soon be able to end the

in the record just inside israel. meanwhile egypt has decided to withdraw its ambassador from israel of the deaths of five gyptian security personnel in border attacks well in two thousand and you can stage an angry protest outside the israeli embassy in cairo against the soldiers recording crossfire as israeli troops try to pursue palestinian militants they believed responsible for the deaths of eight people in an ambush on thursday. well coming up later in the program here in r.t. art and politics don't mix in georgia directly the countries take this they get the sack and many of those supporting him claim it's because he opposed the president. also still to come this big business with some of the top. brothers the stunning show for all of our team takes you through all the highlights of the next international air show in moscow.

a un humanitarian team is heading to syria to assess the situation there while the latest stream of antigovernment protests have reportedly left at least twenty people dead earlier syria claimed army operations against civilians offended meanwhile moscow's rejected calls from the u.s. and e.u. urging president assad to step down saying he should be given more time to enact promised reforms nevertheless a set of fresh economic sanctions have been imposed on syria in response to the government's transaction with the e.u. ready to expand pressure targeting the country's oil sector analyst james denselow says such restrictive measures could prove decisive but do not look realistic. the americans have been very clear they know their employer. to change their behavior is limited they've always said that how to reach out to countries are closer to syria and russia is one such country and a very important country about so i think the americans are now in europe and

specially really have to work hard to persuade the russians that they are right on syria russia is currently running for that is the next important step think we should focus on one particular element which is really important could go either way syria's oil exports are the present about ninety percent or so serious or oil is exported to europe so the europeans are now come out you know united front against assad does that mean they will no longer accept syrian oil now syrian oil makes up son a quarter of syria's hard currency budget so could have a huge amount of an impact on the assad regime its ability to control things so ultimately i do think there is more than rhetoric to what the u.s. and europeans are saying right now. for many russians this day twenty years ago was full of uncertainty and extreme anxiety tanks were patrolling the streets of moscow as a group of hardline communist officials attempted to seize power and failed eventually leading to the collapse of the whole soviet union and to democratic reforms in russia not to talk but and take a look back at the dramatic events. twenty years ago today moscow was in

turmoil tanks on the streets barricades monday outside the russian parliament the white house panic and anger were in the air and the soviet army came face to face with its own people. that are the first couple of days were pretty scary that's when we had to go to key points in the city and protect them there were crowds of people gathering and violence was on the verge of breaking out the coup plotters had isolated soviet leader mikhail gorbachev and seized control of media outlets but one reporter defied the k.g.b. officers in his news room. we've switched on our t.v. camera without much hope of being able to call in here tonight you can see barricades being erected. survey's report was shown and spread word of the democratic resistance developing around the reformist russian president boris

yeltsin as the standoff continues through the nineteenth and twentieth of august fears grew of an assault on the white house. the tanks and soldiers in the streets all of it to me do you feel uneasy thinking what's going to happen in an hour what's going to happen at night. those armored vehicles tried to ram their way through barricades and move into a road tunnel near the white house some of the protesters try to stop them you both come are thought her son dmitri was safe with a friend in fact he was manning the barricades. judging by documents that i've been able to see another dmitry had climbed on the vehicle to cover its vision slits after the in that he jumped into the vehicles riya hatch where he was shot. dimitri was only wounded but the vehicle then ran over his head killing him as two other protesters were shot in the mayhem. that guy was killed

in front of thousands of people who went berserk we pumped out later the petrof only by car there poor patrons of bottles set in the more fire throwing them at the tanks the conspirators already wavering lost their nerve. the three men memorialized here have become martyrs for the democratic cause in fact the expected assault on the white house never materialized but even before the violence which happened just mere few soldiers were being orders. my colleagues and i already saw that the coup was failing so after i got the orders to attack the white house and apprehend yeltsin we unanimously decided we wouldn't do it but. as the plotters admitted the bloodshed destroyed their cause the august coup had come close to succeeding but in the end it went the way of yeltsin and the mocker see tom watson r.t. . the art world in georgia is up in arms after the director of the country's state
