a stab in the right direction or a political chess game is president made there and prime minister grew to prepare a top level switch we tell you or people at home and abroad also say. the down the cash in the eurozone leaders wrangle for an urgent rescue plan to stave off another global meltdown robyn's a national monetary funds accused of not treating countries equally. on the un's very powerful body as the two thirds of the palestinian statehood bid by us and israel again blamed for the stalling the historic moment.
9:01 am
a very warm welcome to you this is r.c. live from moscow it's been arguably the longest running question in russian politics since it was confirmed that writing that approaching will run for president next year and swap jobs with that image then of media and social networks have been held back in their reaction and he's now he's gauging what's being said. the reaction has been mixed i want to take you through some of what we're hearing from not just western media but russian as well the guardian talking about how batman returns to the kremlin that of course referring to wiki leaks earlier this year saying that diplomats referred to madrid even as batman and robin reuters which of course is an international news agency saying russia's finance chief rebels over the weekend planted that sort of worrying us we're hearing from the finance minister alexei nutri that if you president visited becomes the prime
9:02 am
minister he won't want to stay on and it works with him and of course social media and networks just went crazy there buzzing with saturday's news that he will run for president in twenty stateside we've heard from our u.s. senator john mccain is known for his antics you graduate you talked about are he tweeted i should say surprise surprise shocking news putin is running for president again and then here in russia we heard tweets from the president made his very own eight hour carty to our coverage and what he tweeted was nothing to be cheerful about it's better to play ice hockey at luzhniki stadium which of course is where the snow has made it's better now to switch to a sports channel on the other hand we're going to hear certainly from the government other analysts and from people who do support united russia and i highly approve of this this idea about how it's high time russia has the rights of its own democracy and it doesn't necessarily need to take the model ah that's believed to
9:03 am
be the right way even to leave last and that's true united russia enjoys a very very good approval rating in europe and russia prime minister putin enjoys a three percent or so lead over most major in terms of fluid russians would rather have as president and that's of course because he's known for bringing stability to the country after the very turbulent ninety's and some analysts that we've been spoken to say it's not much surprise. that this is how russians are reacting because really when it comes down to it they're going to vote for what's best for them for the russian people he's got to start creating jobs just like other presidents other prime ministers have to do across the world east got to start the russian economic engine. going again research about now on the economy there i don't think he needs to change it so this point he has been very consistent as showing himself as a very strong decisive leader and he certainly has done the same with his protege obviously a person with good years and this is the kind of political world intelligence is
9:04 am
the kind of smarts but i think people respect whether the russia or the u.s. is shown to be very decisive very strong and has a vision for russia and i think that whether it's the u.s. or russia or any other country where you have a leader who has a vision and a strength and people can see that's the that's the individual they want to office and certainly many russian people feel bad how russia is most certainly on the right track you know the new platform with putin maybe it is that will take you want through through stability in further developments their slogan is what do you want russia to look like in twenty twenty they still have a lot of work to do because it has to be said united russia has lost some of its popularity in recent years and so it's going to be some work to be done when we come into these parliamentary elections in december and then on to the presidential race in march. and he said now is giving us the reaction all russia's top job swap . here is a need is

a working against the clock set up i think stenciled press keypad for the region to head off from plunging of the global economy into a new recession the idea now is to apparently use the size of the year as a bailout fund to to truly any gear raise that's off of the i.m.f. would it may not be able to help out the big european economies leaders are also planning to buy taught how to use the stacker that but analysts say difficult still because greece has been hit. the wave of public protests against public carts for the poor are seen now it's revenge the so-called too big to fail countries such as spain for being dragged down and granted she can reports the global mender the i.m.f. saying queues and disproportionate policies. the litter ship has changed but the methods have not for a desperate economy the i.m.f. still offers the same bitter medicine of draconian budget belt tightening reeses push to redouble its austerity efforts at a time of economic recession and to sell

a vast chunk of public assets a fire sale prices some new choice but to cut dificid know the i.m.f. former head dominic strauss kahn said there forcing greece to pay back its debts would unacceptably impoverished the country and that everyone must be willing to accept losses on greek debt but philanthropy has never been the i.m.f. strongpoint it's an institution where my main shareholder is the united states of america well any dollar any euro but is invested in the phone goes dark. to the member principal and interest we not in the business obsess of subsidies we're not in the business of giving grants the us and europe are holding the most votes in the organisation and veto power despite the fact that emerging economies have been the engine of global growth in recent years the organisation's policymaking has been under fire for being biased in favor of its top shareholders one of the
9:07 am
functions of the i.m.f. is crisis warning and prevention but when three years ago the financial crisis in the u.s. was sending devastating shock waves throughout the world the organization proved completely redundant of the united states. in a much stronger position warning about build a financial debt that i think is that right get out. and housing bubble. and invest. it monitor their bids and help but they as well as others that it will open to that ability some experts see the intimacy between the i.m.f. and u.s. corporations as a matter of concern all of the big decisions at the i.m.f. are made by the u.s. treasury department well even the head of the world bank has accused the top advanced economies of ocracy in their policies when countries with large fiscal deficits preach fiscal discipline the poor countries what are they really saying do
9:08 am
what i say not what i do when countries pay homage to free trade but hold back developing countries with barriers what do they really say do what i say not what i do a do what i say not what i do world well fracture to the detriment of all. we always hear and must change with the i.m.f. swap is members themselves facing their own problems many doubt whether the organization will be able to take adequate measures to work off i also believe other global price it's as well lending money to the world's weaker economies the i.m.f. the still facing the challenge of offering viable solutions that do not come with crippling measure it's the one thing is clear the world demands an i.m.f. that does not work solely for the benefit of the few i'm going to check out with forty four last r.t. . love is the latest welker reaction from around the world this hour let's cross so you can see you here now he's got the info for us so you know markets really
9:09 am
bracing themselves for a possible greek default. and i suppose a lot of news for investors to digest and they are close and definitely a lot of confusion on the markets and the markets low are too weak and of talks over how to deal with the euro zone debt hard line comments from german chancellor angela merkel and also the resignation of the u.b.s. c.e.o. reconcile right now is just first let me remind you that temple martin several signed into law in greece to do you feel free just story investor confidence and the spark contagion that we saw in two thousand and eight after the collapse of lehman brothers and on the other hand in washington on that's going to smacked with policymakers and transferred by because just cost decrease touch crisis and some reports indicate plans to allow greece defaults orginally in an orderly way also under consideration and that is of course weighing on the markets we can see. if
9:10 am
they opened lower but not right now they are rallying the taxes up two point eight percent efficiency is point eight percent higher banking stocks are leading the gains in the sea and we talk top russian there of course those gains in asia and in europe and the r.t.s. is one point five. while the my sense is even more significant gains about twenty percent on the routes will have more market analysis and business in vaults of minutes in case you didn't come forward to hearing more from you in the studio different natures and say. now in just a few minutes on all me israel woke proved too much for president bush was no problem for obama we begin so why americans cars and into have no trouble finding office and live off its elevated thought see all say. and protect sounds of g. bush believes get powers to blanket ban marches and demagogues as rive our annoying need for a rollback in the rights of expression the reports from london in just
9:11 am
a few. cultures that so much we're going to make a lot of people a variant of look at is it time to rethink capitalism as we know it today should the world still rely on markets to generate wealth when the rich only get richer and. wealthy british style it's sometimes. hard. to. market why not. come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with much stronger or no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to conjure reports on r.g.p.
9:12 am
. very first verses of the bible that all human beings are created but some of it all came in god's image and it doesn't say just jews or god just. sixty to seventy percent of what i did as a combat soldier in the occupied territories was a deal with the turds. doing what we call making our presence so you go out should somebody be here and i can see doors from the other corridor not out religion and nationalism not just judaism and be a part of the problem they've been part of what leads to. bloodshed if you want to all guys are and cure a thousand four hundred people in a month and you want to expect that this will have no effect and terrific you have to be either extremely naive or extremely stupid. here and just to go into another job and not believe they really didn't remember anything.
9:13 am
palestinians up some mistake over the un state it will have to play through with the security council set to start discussions. is expected to start at the request for at least several weeks the big needs the approval of nine out of fifteen members to ponce the u.s. its promise it will you say the rules of washington wants to be achieved only through negotiations with israel palestinian leader mahmoud abbas says he will only sit down to tools if it curiously remains to create nine hundred fifty seven borders he's also accused the u.s. of trying to use its influence and so will the vote pro palestinian activists in your days as israel's norway conflict in the ninety's occupy. as palestinians we have a very heightened sense of national pride at this moment that even though we know
9:14 am
the veto is most likely coming next week or the other really makes no difference but there is a very high sense of national achievement at this point because for oneself there are those very disappointing years of the so-called peace process the political leadership on the pop. public opinion are in line there and i'm on one side of the political debate if you will going back to negotiations is not something palestinians oppose on principle but if we go back to negotiations with our occupiers and that's what israel is without any terms of reference without israel clearly committing to international law clearly committing to its obligations according to international law and relevant un resolutions then it's purely pointless. as president obama struggles to contain the fallout from the palestinian bid reports of which claim he secretly approved to transfer fifty five high stake
9:15 am
bunker buster bombs and apparently have announced all of these you call phase after it had earlier been rejected by president bush if it israel could sell this technology to china but historian william blum's says for of all mates away its kill michael campaign funds. well the u.s. has been giving israel all manner of. gratitude from turkey this is not new it's not great gone largely or. a rational explanation that is not working is progress we will be courses over money in the us. yes working with the jewish lobby and your him to virtually. the only rationale here. a lot of. people in britain have long been able to march in protest that they voice is being silenced in parts of london for an entire month the government says and police
9:16 am
a pillow and blanket down on party catherine is in the capital it's getting freedom of expression under threat a threat that reports. the view of workers activists on the home office on marching it's clear it's an attack on the democratic rights in this country through september in six areas of london anyone marching like these people did last winter is liable to be arrested and fined or even imprisoned. the ban was prompted by plans by the anti muslim english defense league team here in luton in february to march through tower hamlets the area with the highest concentration of muslims in the country but instead of banning one march on one day the home office banned all marches in six baros for an entire month activist richard seymour sees a wider motive. doesn't necessarily mean to say that mortars are going to happen it
9:17 am
just means that the police more powers and that's part of the wider problem but if you're restricted to a static demonstration the police have a right to pen you in. a restroom very very. small says or for instance these people behind me are amongst the lucky few they still can march just by pure accident of geography we're here in london which is not one of the six baros affected by the ban but if as many fear the government extend and widen the ban to take in more parts of london the scenes that you see behind me both small and large marches through london and many other cities across the country could be a thing of the past the band comes out on the heels of widespread rioting in many english fifty eight in august it also coincides with the introduction of government austerity measures which some say amounts to the dismantling of the entire welfare state many say public fear of civil unrest is being manipulated to prevent unions
9:18 am
from turning out to protest fierce cuts and pat. reagan from the workers revolutionary party says it's just the tip of the iceberg for the for that area curfews that talk about shutting down facebook social network sites they're talking about it or your civil war measures because what they're doing in britain is creating a historic change which inevitably. the majority of the population will oppose and the home office can only stop marching it powerless to prevent people from gathering but workers' organizations argue it's no good just standing that you've got to be able to march to make a statement as the union did in march when more than a quarter of a million people turned out to protest because activists say that's exactly what the government's trying to stop just in terms of where we are at the moment in this country with the process of the steroids have been pushed through by the government
9:19 am
trade unions are one of the major goals opposed to that public order legislation does tend used against striking workers something that's been very clear in the there's been some recent examples of people being hauled off the picket lines and not to obviously we can see any resistance to the cuts freedom of expression and dissociation in shrines in the u.k. and european law with the u.k. renowned for its powerful union organizations but the ban gives the police the ultimate power to step in and arrest demonstrators merely for exercising their right to speak out against the government and that's a dangerous precedent to set your enemies r.t. london. ok so we have some breaking news now hang on r.t. president of the red bed of suggesting that russia's finance minister stand down in a secluded and says he's going to the skull since position with prime minister vladimir putin let's get more now from and he said now
9:20 am
a who joins me here in the studio a well a little later she'll be here anyway it's just gives him back. that's the president until the end of the day as a deadline to cooper and said on sunday that he was not under the new government following the switch at the top of russian politics president putin has announced he's running for president in twenty twelve off the current president to be preventive it's become a pariah to come to the prime minister here with the russian leader said that anyone who doubts the course taken by the president and the government cannot resign well joining me now in this studio to discuss this more is our correspondent lisa now he's been following this major events in russia as it's called life and she joins me now along with political commentator because to both of you for joining me here i can turn to you. and if you could just explain what you think is
9:21 am
behind the president's comments on this well i think it's pretty clear that the president did was somehow direct response from finance minister could really after the announcement that putin would be running for president medvedev would become the prime minister that you want quote he couldn't see himself in the government obviously it's not a compliment and the president basically suggested today that he had in his resignation to which he answered i believe he has to confer with the prime minister and was then told by the president as long as i'm the president. this is this is what. the teacher has been eventful day has now i do you always seem the sort of the political standoff you think i think a little bit here first of all i think mr greenspan i very very much admire and i can tell you the markets around the world look to him he's kind of like maybe it was a decade ago or the alan greenspan of russia i mean people really old people don't presbyterian today if they really trust who drink today and so the markets will
9:22 am
react to it but if you any minister that says that sitting in office about the prime minister or the president you know. deserves to be criticize you that's really not appropriate behavior that said mr putin maybe angling for a position in the next government on his own terms ok we have to remember mr putin knows putin is well was made but it does i mean this is a very small circle of people that know each other extremely well this could be some power play before we get started i'm a little surprised it's a bit early i think mr green was out of line in his comments we again will have to see if that russia's economy investment will suffer as a result and he should keep those kind of things in mind you have to be careful what you say well let's talk about convince past foundations now has been suggested the finance minister can have become prime minister back again to see exactly what i when i heard his remarks on sunday about he's making a bid to become prime minister in may and it looks like the job's already been given so a little bit of a total right here who says there isn't politics in russia i mean this is something going on here it's something behind the scenes it is not normal for any kind of
9:23 am
governments like this and this is going to cause some turbulence here mr goodwin is going to get the short end of the stick as we see it right now now where we make up later it's very cost we will use it that he said to his reputation internationally . throughout the day about his popularity among investors here in russia and it's. russia has been rising the global economy. it's basically i think what the what the point is that we can look at as you're getting all of this criticism about how stagnant by the way russian politics are already setting interest first i can't say really i don't know if all the experts that we've been speaking to here at artsy a lot of them that i've heard from at least all are saying stability equals what's happening with financial crisis now and brush that hasn't graham got a fact if we look and he said i'll put it on top of it a lot of people get it mr coote been for that because you have to embrace the
9:24 am
united russia you had the communists and you know just about everybody else and their grandmother saying spend the money we've got more money than god spend it on . who knows it is going to be the corruption index a good part of it so to go into people's pockets and he said no it's a turbulent world we're going to be ready we're not going to get caught flat footed like everybody else was and russia in going to see a global double dip now russia will hopefully knock on wood be able to ride it out because of mr cauldrons policy and he said do you agree with that i think is. our i'm not great with the economy i do know that. presumably knows how well that russia is not suffering as much as the rest of the world certainly europe and the united states and you were talking about power play maybe this is it maybe he knows it and he wants to get a little career further on it also could be another element here is you know there are other elements that we might not see he's making maybe a very strong reminder you have to keep the course to school you know we have had meaning russia has had for the last twelve years because if you don't it could be
9:25 am
real and given the same troubles everyone else so there could be another element in here we i'm sure of these three players are on the telephone back and forth in their handlers and we'll get some kind of resolution here but i think also for the third time who says there isn't politics in russia there's a lot of turbulence going on here and i think maybe for the good because all three persons involved in this here are actually do care about the country's standing in the world in the financial situation here as the tsunami outside hits us and they will know you are there for a very old two decades here very like that. the last that we hear of. the latest twists in all of this of course is what we just heard from president dmitri medvedev he said that quote anyone who is down so the course of the president and the government can resign that makes a because obviously that or so it seems very strange to me because we don't have a new government we don't have a new prime minister and we don't have a new president so again i have to kind of question what mr goodwin's agenda is
9:26 am
here right now we don't have the parliamentary elections which will be very important we will see how united russia does after the events that is new so you covered so well over the weekend. and then we have the presidential actually i think it's fair to say we know who is going to be the next president right here but don't start changing the chairs before we get to the events that will be happening in the future ok so i mean we may hear hear more about why mr goodwin had to say that i can do so i can do to our viewers because a very powerful position here in russia and is well respected abroad and he's angling on whatever you really want to produce what do you think is going to be the next step how is his position untenable i mean medvedev has come out and made his pretty blatant statement i think what we have to do is take this first of all with a grain of salt sometimes politicians say things that they show and then there is you know big scandals about any kind of settles down clinton has done a good job as the finance minister last week we saw horrible horrible horrible here are now just terrible russia knows that they're not going to get rid of control now i think it will be done well and let's be more careful about i know you have to
9:27 am
only use respect protocol in such a public position i don't think we're going to see the end of his policies will we see the end of his position there but it's quite possible the governments go on ok they do go on in the political cycle will continue. and he said many thanks for your thoughts i'm sure this won't be the last that we hear from your next then a full day. i can't you stay with us here on our back in just a few minutes with an update of our top story. twenty years ago the largest country in. the suitable. if. one had been more each of them going to be janitor and.
