the real aim to surround russia and china what's in it then for turkey why would turkey be involved in such a plan well if the u.s. is using nato and nato expansion as the us i think the cloister of carrots and draw in other countries like turkey and romania making them feel like they're going to be taken care of by the european union. but clearly we're talking about here is major tensions in the region between united states missile defense deployments that are now going into poland renia turkey and other countries in the coming years as well as nato expansion throughout the region worse even basically uncertain of russia at the same time the u.s. is doing the same thing to china with its bases in mosul first appointments in japan south korea now. u.s. is deploying a trio of missile defense systems like iran and so this is clearly trying to control the contain both russia and china but bruce it's interesting isn't it that

that aim certainly doesn't fit into the context of the so-called resetting of relations between moscow and washington and indeed when he took office said he's going to shelve the bush era plan so why has there been this change in his mind and he's now pursuing this project. well he shelved one version of missile defense but what's important to know about obama is that he was promoted early on before anyone really even knew who he was by the crown family of chicago that are the majority stockholders in the general dynamics corp i live in bath i mean there is a company here called bath iron works that is owned by general dynamics corp they build the destroyers that are being outfitted with these version of missile defense there is promoting both to use to encircle russia and china so it seems obvious to me that the obama administration is is really snaking and rewarding

the crown family and general dynamics for their support which should be known that in the two thousand and eight election obama received more campaign contributions from the military industrial complex than john mccain did who is supposedly the hawk in the race and just briefly in finally of course russia is very much in line with your sentiments does feel threatened has even off nato to guarantee legally that these systems will not be turned against it and threaten russia's borders what are the implications now then with the relations between russia and the us if this plan does go ahead are we going to perhaps a response in russia which could lead to another arms race. i think the united states sadly to say is really losing the cold war both with russia and china i think the. obvious response that we're seeing now from russia and china is they've asked for negotiations the gone to the united nations for many years seeking

a ban on our weapons in space the united states through the democrat and republican administration says ignore that offer to negotiate and so sadly rover see now is russia and china having to take countermeasures though to deal with these growing u.s. missile defense the climbers and other kind of bases surrounding their borders bruce we'll leave it break here we have to say thanks for your time bruce kagame joining us live there from the state thank you. zulfi live here in moscow twenty five minutes past the hour special interview coming up your way shortly and the sports just ahead of the business news with marina. hello and welcome to the business here on the right see the leaders of greece france and germany are all seeking a way it's a can see are named european debt crisis here is that greece is heading towards

a thaw have something interest rate on its government bonds to record the highs but doesn't have much to worry about i was taking off for morgan stanley explains. russia is actually a much better position and other central european countries say turkey in the region because it has less strong trade and investment relationships with europe because it's more of a global trading country and it depends on the price of global commodities such as all which depend growth in emerging markets such as china and india. so russia's for each is toyed with the growth of china and india are not at the moment looks reports and hasn't been affected by the downturn in developed markets and as compared to other. countries i think russia is in of course with brazil as essentially a commodity exporter which is exposed to movements and commodity prices which are affected by global growth it's not like china and india which are large enough that

they can determine their own fate to make their own economic weather to a great degree because it depends on commodity prices which depend upon global developments. let's take a look at the markets now we'll start with oil prices there are next food is maintaining its losses after the u.s. energy department report which saw the decline in the stores and an unobstructed gain in gasoline stockpiles and they were asked markets are trading in positive territory extending gains for a third day as investors remain optimistic about a resolution of you have started crisis well in europe stocks closed higher after european commission president hostile yarber also said the commission will soon percent since the introduction of common your bonds which is somebody who can help resolve that crisis these has got the ratings of french banks credit agricole and so i say it's a general as there are two dependence on greek debts the french ranking sector is the biggest holder of european sovereign debt obligations here in russia markets

and that's right in session mix that comes after the sign for banks and finance right decision which was left unchanged. eight point two five percent i let's take a look at some and that's movers on the my sex gas problem went up one percent the company has increased the value of a production forecast by three percent to five hundred twenty billion cubic meters of gas i have cases there my game did two and a half percent and drug maker vera farmiga lost a little bit the spine stronger than expected results its worse off their profit rose twenty percent to twenty nine million dollars. russia is considering delaying the privatization of a ten percent stake in that second largest bank of the tse b. the sale planned for next year depends on the disposal of another acid a seven point six percent of the country's top lenders burbank earlier if those reporters could revise its probably size ational clients due to the latest

artie is sitting down with stephen rom com founder and c.e.o. of inc a worldwide investigative agency steve thank you very much for sitting down to speak with r.t. today from a pleasure for more than a decade you've been warning the mass public or at least informing us that privacy is dead get over it and in that time people have consciously been putting more and more information about themselves online what do you think this has done to contribute to your message of privacy being that well the truth is people care less and less about privacy or at least they act as if they do the greatest amount of data that's being compiled each of us today is self contributed. your location your likes your dislikes your religion your sexual orientation. how you vote where you live who your friends are who your family is what music

you listen to what books you read all sorts of things that frankly are a window into your soul all of these things are self contributing i can go to your facebook page and obtain information equivalent to what people would pay a private investigator ten thousand dollars a few years ago to go out and gather you have consensually put it up there for the whole world. and that includes of course the holy grail of investigation which is location and photos you are constantly reporting your location you're constantly posting photos how do you manage your own social network profiles you have any i do and i post just often enough to let people know that i'm alive. possibly once a month. and i'm very careful that i keep location aware programs turned off so it doesn't report where i physically am at that moment and i don't reports

what i'm doing or or who i'm with or things like that in an interview with r t julian songe stated that our us based social networks provide information to a secret service if they request it could not be true it's more than true and it's not just it's not a social networking sites first of all they don't need to provide anything it's right there the secret service certainly which specializes in computer crime computer activities and certainly smart enough to have one of their tech services people go online and look it up on your facebook page or your twitter feed or your you tube for you or whatever. i don't think that the secret service needs the permission of these sites but in fact all of these sites do cooperate with law enforcement and i think they should and it's not just social networking sites

google is is so intimately and mesh with the u.s. government and i'm not just talking about. i hate to use this word i was going to say but now i am parts of the u.s. code with the sort of implies that there are not but no that's not what i mean to say but google in fact does have a relationship with the cia who has a very close relationship with the n.s.a. google has a backdoor that they make available to the secret service and to the f.b.i. i'm not saying this is a bad thing but it is something that that people should be aware of and why is it that you want. people to know about us that their privacy is going away why you telling us. well i know it's kind of counterintuitive you'd think that as a private investigator as the owner of an investigative agency i'd be delighted by this and i am and i am i take great advantage of this and all the people who post

their photos and their whereabouts and their families and their friends you know thank you very much ok i appreciate it me talking about it is not going to stop these people they're going to motor ahead and continue doing it i just think it's it's in certain respects on america for companies like google and facebook to be aggregating all of this data on each of us without people really being aware of the ramifications you know it's not that you have a facebook page it's that yesterday you posted what books you like to read a week before that you posted that you were a democrat a week before that you posted your religion a week before that you posted that you were coming out of the closet a week before that you posted your parents' names and it's not one thing by itself

it's that facebook google my space the cell phone companies especially they gather this bit by bit by bit by bit and before you know it they've got your entire life on disk you know it's the it's the constant addition of everything and there's some some real sneaky stuff going on out there you know there's a reason why facebook is is so valuable you are defined by who your friends are that's what facebook is all about people friending you. most of your friends are going to be people like you they're going to be people who speak the same language read the same books have the same politics follow the same religion or follow no religion at all and if i see who your friends are i know who you are and i can

sell you things i can say wrote she's friends with fifteen people who by gonna do us like books i need to sell her donald ross like i'll tell you the biggest the biggest privacy invader of all cell phone this has changed everything if you think about the cell phone you'll understand that this is the greatest invasion of privacy ever first of all it tells me where you are at every minute of the day it tells me who your friends are it tells me who's important thing it tells me where you work it tells me where you live it tells me where you eats and tells me everything that i need to know about you a magic in that i am moammar gadhafi but i want to know who's been participating in the most recent demonstration against him all i have to do is

check and see who cell phones were in the square where the demonstration was it's really that simple i can tell you that right now today u.s. law enforcement is making charts of mafia families without doing any surveillance they know that this guy and this guy and this guy spent two hours together in this bar then this guy went here and reported to this guy this guy one here and did something else by following cell phones by following e-mail by following all the communications on a smartphone. your entire life is all interesting that you bring out moammar gadhafi would you be able to pin down where radical duffy is i don't know what information is available but i find it very very hard to believe that he's not already pretty much located so you think he has located it based on everything

you're saying how easy it is look with khadafi is a nut but he's a very clever nut and he's a not that's managed to survive for forty five years and i'm sure he took note of how osama bin laden was captured and i'm sure he took note of how saddam hussein was captured. and i'm sure he's avoiding those mistakes but he will make a new mistake you know that the beauty of being someone who hunts for people is you can make all the mistakes you want you can miss the guy here you can get a false lead there but if the guy you're chasing makes one mistake came over and oh ok so the u.s. government and the british s.a.'s and maybe the french and whoever else has people peeking around in libya right now or probably algeria. you know they're they're missing him here missing him they're dry hole here dry hole they're within thirty

days they'll have well be the consequence of how this all around use of such and i know everyone has this this orwellian image of what's going on with the internet that they it's always they they never say who they are but they are gathering information on us and the average person assumes that it's the government in fact it's not it's private industry that's gathering information on you and they're doing it for one simple reason not because they want to invade your privacy or it's some salacious interest or you know they want to spy on you on behalf of someone and speak your eyeballs are worth money they want to find out as much as they can about you so they can sell you stuff this is pure naked capitalism you've worked a lot on the issue of fighting terrorism on to modern information technologies and social networks turning to instruments and that's right you know this is one of the

few good arguments for the invasion of privacy that's going on and is the is the tradeoff between privacy and safety and unfortunately there is a trade off if you're going to find out who the bad guys are you have to gather information on everybody you have to be able to say this one's ok this one's ok this one we need to look at a little more the fact of the matter is that if there had been database analysis and proper use of databases nine eleven would have never happened. two of the hijackers were known to the cia they were on a cia watch list every single one of the other seventeen hijackers was linked in some way to those two known hijackers five of them shared an address three of them shared a frequent flyer number two or three of them shared a telephone number some of them use the same credit card there's no question that that first of all had the cia and the f.b.i.

been talking to each other and had proper use of databases been made all of these people would have been scooped up no question about it right at the end or right there steve thank you very much for your time thank you. decades back in tonga one thousand miles from the north pole. the un team is taking on a trip to spitzbergen non-typical ago. where twenty years ago after the u.s.s.r. skull i'm assuming my fist still going strong. in the world synonymous the statue of lenin presides over in those the an islamist militia which has become a tourist site for those overcome by the cold more in the style of.
