a computer whiz kid is told that he's committed no major crime in the u.k. because still face trial in america. now just after six pm on friday here in the russian capital this is artsy with me rory scene showing the latest chapter in the greek that saw here is due to unfold as the government of prime minister george papandreou faces a crucial confidence vote by the embattled greek leader alienated many of his supporters so the plans for a bailout referendum which council the outcome of the vote could have had a major bearing on the debt stricken euro zone our correspondent in athens is sara for. greek prime minister to step in jay faces fresh face from the fraud
10:02 am
and from within his own government as well he's in a very very tight spot indeed there's actually no guarantee that he'll remain in power once it's called sitting in for eight days to later on say he's going to be asking lawmakers to back him in his government's backup plan is very uncertain in the mood exactly what the outcome of that is going to be some people as they can see here think that he'll find a way to manage to survive and cling on to power put a lot of other people calling for is head we seen it be an incredibly up and down with blink and you'll miss it with some of the decisions that have been going back and forth on again off again referendum the possibility of him resigning in the not residing but of course no one is missing here because the family of greece as if these huge amounts of research about what's happening here in the neighborhood this is turbulence at a time when they see you as aid and the country faces an absolutely critical point leaving food in the speech and the last thing anyone wanted is the kind of
10:03 am
uncertainty that is seeing at the moment when the referendum power was announced at the beginning of the week not only was it not from his criticism. and here in the country months in his government but the people are. announcing with a lot of status and they never expected to be given a voice they never expected to have that decision today in the house very much the sense there on the state is that this decision is now completely in the hands of fossils of the years they need is in their proper gaze really marching to their chief the loss of disappointment in the past the government in the prime minister a lot of the women but police is a country right now is a population suffering from economic exhaustion they really are at the end of an incredibly long crisis the start he greets really has been a test case for how much austerity a country can take advil so everyone's watching the movie of course there are concerns about other countries. you know it's a it's clear it's causing a huge amount it is planted at the event as they certainly quite concerned not just
10:04 am
ok about the usa as a whole later on today when i called to say casey will know more about the plans moving forward but i kept they were painted how whether a unity government come about that could have instead knock on effects throughout the rest of the year is a it's a huge amount of concern but with such a loss of public office people here on the ground there are think even if it happened they can survive that confidence day in his government be able to state how he's clearly lost the confidence of the public that is surfing reporting from athens i mean time up faster constitutional law shorter cut programs so it doesn't actually matter how the crisis is resolved as greeks have grown so disillusioned with the entire political system. may suffer as a person feel a little deceived maybe as you were. going into so. that's why even if the former you quote i don't think looking out of the basic problem of now
10:05 am
our system has been good to use those are the last people who work for the good of the political system not just the one who will go it's a special she's on birth. very broadly in the near future the other guy and this will leave you with people who stream have a good so we're going to we're not going to do so by themselves to be the subject going to follow the big things that you can see in the closers of america and some cause it is. called our brain is that exactly what is going to be the greatest thing for the referendum going to be exactly for a vision of the so this is not there anymore argument that this is a problem if we don't do this this is going to be. incomes. the political and financial turbulence in greece has shaped discussion at the g twenty summit which is just wrapped up now in can you lead us our voice a strong determination to defend the euro that circus like not want to use an
10:06 am
eastern are we intending it there and can i get to see you a nice a president sarkozy has delivered a final speech to the summit fill us in but i have to say. oh very much like this entire summit here in cannes the focus was of course your crisis and what's happened in greece over the past year and very many developments of course over the past week let me take you through what we see here as some of the main points once again we heard very much you know that you have to play by our rules if you want to stay in the euro zone sarkozy say we don't choose governments but the governments need to follow our rules that they should consider the same rules fair game basically he spoke a lot about the referendum the back steps and i should say of course the greek pm cancelling that referendum that he wanted to hold and how the people have a little bit of their say sarkozy saying it wasn't shocking what was shocking is that they weren't giving any notice about this referendum he going on to to praise
10:07 am
the steps saying that it really does open up the road for more dialogue implying that the situation according to him and many of the other year old leaders is on a much better road than it would have been if they would have gone ahead and held this referendum also they talked about how the european leaders have to set the guidelines and greece should have to follow them again playing by the rules is something we've heard very many times from him and both angle the merkel at this summit you talked about how the g. twenty leaders did come to one of concrete decision they're on the same page about bolstering the role of the i.m.f. that of course is to prevent any kind of domino effect or contagion in terms of this euro crisis and having it filter and really kind of bring the global economy into the danger that we saw back in two thousand and eight we're hearing reports that although the summit has been ramped up that the final communique won't actually be released until after midnight now it could be
10:08 am
a fair guess to say that they're waiting to release that for that confidence vote to go through on of course the greek prime minister another thing that was interesting that sarkozy mention. it's a very harsh statement he talked about the international community excluding countries that are tax havens so a lot of focus on the euro he spoke a lot about italy which of course is considered to be the next country that could be on the same road as greece but the main point here we will defend the euro to the end and. as you're mentioning it will you there are from the european central bank is being presided over by the senior members in italy when it comes to the g twenty you know and he said gatherings of global leaders almost always accompanied by molecules and protests so in one of the round of protests we saw what appeared to be some comedians can you fill us in on the. right the g twenty always has protests usually they're anti globalist protests this year what makes them stand
10:09 am
out is first of all their solidarity with the very rapidly developing occupy movement in the states a lot of protesters spoke about how they stand with them and their movement against the rich and bankers making decisions for the rest of the world they try to get their message across a little bit further out the coast in nice in monaco by playing with a lot of satire a lot of mass just to give you an idea of some of their slogans angle of merkel mast her slogan we would have been behind a referendum in greece if the answer was yes if the greek people going along with our rule so to say really these protests are expected to continue at further summits and around the world not connected even to the summits what analysts are saying most interestingly enough is they always existed these protests but now the leaders are really being forced to pay attention all right how is he going over the life of the whole food u. twenty in france thank you. well you with our team it's good to have you with us on this friday still ahead for you
10:10 am
a brutal crackdown in oakland california. they were right there if you know matt people america's first general strike in half a century and a peaceful march of occupy oakland of protesters culminating in chaos with almost one hundred arrests and plenty of injuries. and western governments plan to ramp up the pressure on iran over its nuclear program all of this ahead of a report by a u.n. watchdog are those details coming your way shortly. an epic seventeen month journey to mars has just completed its mission just hours ago actually even though the spacecraft never really left earth the simulated flight took place right here in moscow and was an experiment to monitor the psychological effects of long term isolation on the six man international crew i hear the impressions of a virtual space man who's now seeing daylight for the first time in over five hundred days after five hundred. twenty days of mission in its
10:11 am
treatment. and we are proud today to to prove that humans can go to mass we hope that we can help in designing in the next the future missions to mars and we're ready to get into the next piece of green there. this is experiment to see basically the psychological effect a trip to mars would have on the crew and how they would work together inside such a facility now those that took part in this are looking to be part of future martian missions this other whole operation was an international cooperation cooperative mission the russian space agency working with the european space agency to put this experiment into into practice now the crew itself was made up from people from all around the world three of them were russian there was
10:12 am
representatives from china as well as from france and central america who will find out a little bit what it's like on the scene where the mars five hundred module is we can now cross live to tom barton who is there tom what's going on where you are. well peter i remember on june the third last year watching this door behind me shot seals and that was the start of the five hundred twenty days which ended when i watched them door open at last after all that time and the crew emerged little bit white faced little bit bleary eyed into a into a cheering crowd after all that time they all stood together in front of microphones and they said how glad they were to work with their other crew members and to have got through what is really quite a feat of a juror really to be in the nation and with a very strict routine day in day out for all that time to discuss a bit more about this i'm joined by renee bushel he's head of the european space
10:13 am
agency's office in washington. we never quite knew what to expect when we started this expect experiments and what you think we have up to this very long stretch of time i think there are a lot of things that you have. the first thing. you see today even with. all the data. is of course. we see that there are no general showstoppers in terms of for medical problems britain problems center proof of six or five in a twenty very similar to a mcdonald's. on top of there to the effect was also learned so much more to selection process because this was one of the crucial ingredients trust working very well together and then of course there are a lot of other medical factors and things which we have learned solution can apply the first. three even for the internals. of course as you say
10:14 am
the selection process and it was primarily a psychological explorers riggers so what kind of problems were the up against what were the fears and how they've been overcome. but of course the biggest fear is that there will be problems with. five hundred fifty very innocent face in isolation this is a very tough task of course. we can say that the crew. has been working very hard very serious or all over the earth for some of twenty days each and every day of it and they really prove made into a success. but thank you very much renee i mean i remember seeing the makers of put eight to one odds on one of the crew going insane as a result of this experiment that hasn't materialized and i think they can now look fortunately deep brief periods free of all those tensions well as.
10:15 am
compensation for taking part in the mission each participant received one hundred thousand dollars puts they've also had plenty of time to try and work out what they're going to spend that there were serious point of them being in there was the science that comes from it. and the people behind the last five hundred project have said this yes it has. i mean a success however in terms of the journey into the far reaches of space they are saying no that it is really not even the first step but the first step towards the first step of mankind flying off and going to hopefully try and set up some form of settlement on mars participator all of the following the martian adventures for all of our spirit. also remember you can always a visit our website or dot com for the latest news and comments and videos are just a few of the items are waiting for you right now find out how nato forces faced an

10:18 am
officers there are at least hundreds if not two hundred three hundred police officers in full riot gear settlement as you can see behind us right now on the occupy oakland movement now we don't know how many officers are back there we saw a massive group of them sort of walk down that street before that was the street of the standoff for several protesters had barricaded the street from the police several several pieces of furniture and whatnot were lit on fire but again not enough of an action to provoke this kind of a militant response by the police force here they were shooting rushed on their issue not people her remains to be seen how november second in downtown oakland will be remembered will be the charred remains of a few isolated instances of violence or the successful shutdown of the nation's sports reporting from downtown oakland fartsy on the spot. and of course you can watch all the video from the night of violence in oakland on you tube channel and lucy carter office keeping a close eye on the occupy movement in oakland and of course elsewhere i think
10:19 am
that's what a feed right here. is which is also excuse me being a reach we could all see under school she says the movement is going to ring support for most far as afghanistan followed lucy and aussie on twitter to stay up to date with the movement's developments and on our website meantime we're asking you if it's possible that police will stop protecting the interests of the so-called ninety nine percent of those the occupy wall street protesters say they are being repressed by the rich bringing up the numbers right here let's see how you are voting forty eight percent of those who voted say it will only happen if the policeman lose their jobs another twenty six percent said the police will side with protesters when the government cannot give them what they want for example. twenty two percent think the police would never follow waters to follow. rounds on peaceful activists and only twelve percent say occupy protesters are rioters therefore getting the treatment of a. wealthy

in to cause report on our t.v. . our six thirty pm here in moscow and you are watching r.t. the u.s. and u.k. officials have been quick to deny that seeking military confrontation with iran statements were released by a spokesman from both sides following media reports of a potentially operation aimed at tehran's alleged nuclear weapons facilities however they did say the west has no intention of easing pressure on the islamic republic and would use what's described as a quote wide range of meanings out there disposal the likes of the u.s. and britain are expected to seize upon the upcoming i.a.e.a. report on iran's nuclear program and for reportedly reveal new intelligence about the alleged activities but author adrian south of him says these. that's nothing new for. this is been going on for almost for more than four years now we've been inserts against iran on the part of israel who are calling for
10:22 am
a preemptive strike. on yahoo said only two days ago and it all coincides with the battle of newsroom is really attack on southern lebanon in two thousand and six so i think we have to be very cautious and basically understand that what iran is is the cornerstone of probably what is an ongoing very tough negotiation to move forward towards the world governments we're russia and china are not going to plow in very easily to the western powers and iran is the cornerstone so i think the world we are seeing is we are probably edging closer to what might become a full fledged war in the region even a world war with iran is the cornerstone if it is attacked by he's really american british. all three forces meanwhile british media say that an attack on iran could come as soon as next november that prediction comes because the country

remains brazilian to international sanctions various media site the u.k.'s ministry of defense and whitehall as their sources how to check out the story in full just log on to r.t. dot com. a harmless trickster in his country and i wanted criminal in another this is the sad case of richard o'dwyer a british british student who was facing extradition to the u.s. over alleged internet piracy in the u.k. if he was guilty he would most likely get off with a fine but in the u.s. he would face a much worse fate bennett reports. on the surface they're a picture of karma but these are very anxious times for richard o'dwyer and his family the university students facing possible extradition to america for alleged copyright infringement he ran a website providing links to pirated videos it wasn't a problem for british or thora sees it rich is nevertheless a wanted man you know it's really just all. frightening
10:24 am
because you know if richard had done anything wrong we would buy up it means to be responsible but in this very very long time case is now being heard at this magistrate's court in london the latest chapter in julie's struggle to keep her son it home plate told us that the criminal investigation in the u.k. had been dropped so it was like a bit of a sigh of relief when the next sentence they said we've got an extradition warrant term memory. and then he must go to the court immediately i thought he was going to be extradited but that day richard's website t.v. shack was a free stein poster pirated content including the latest hollywood blockbusters none of it was actually provided by him but that doesn't matter to america it says the site breached their copyright laws and claims he's there to punish because their websites lucrative advertising was aimed at u.s.
10:25 am
consumers this course is where richard was fate will be decided royds on whether or not his actions are considered to be a crime in the u.k. this trial was his last chance to put forward his defense and now it's up to the judge to decide but according to digital lure experts the decisions not a tough one to make it's quite possible that he's only him guilty of a civil offense and that offense is something he could potentially get fined for and you know it is clearly a u.k. case as well. because he was doing this in the u.k. so really any case for him to be extradited to the united states is not clearly was infringing copyright in united states told britain signed the extradition treaty with america in two thousand and three nearly a decade on the controversy still surrounds it the u.s. can extradite whoever it wants without proof or hearing privileges the u.k.
10:26 am
doesn't get the treaty was a must change for the government while in opposition but a recent review of commissions just deemed the treaty still fair several leading m.p.'s refused to agree though the commons home affairs committee calling for changes was a mistake in the first place to sign a treaty i think it was a mistake it's not a level playing field even with a partner like america we need to make sure that we are being equal and we are being fair to our citizens and that is not the case of the opposition against the extradition treaty is growing in westminster dissenting in pleas of just force through a debate on it later this month and the parliamentary review on it is in the new year all this though maybe too late for richard he is just two weeks until he learns whether america will get what it wants are given it r.t. under. you know if you would actually like some other stories now making headlines around the world for you this hour an explosion has killed four and it left dozens
