broadcasting live or direct from our studios in central moscow. quite happy with. western europe europeans can rest easier this winter with an uninterrupted flow of russian gas to keep them warm the nord stream pipeline will pump fuel along the baltic sea floor and straight at you customers without relying on transit countries like ukraine and belarus president will start to flow in germany later on tuesday. the key points off the russian president's visit to germany is the launch the official opening of the north korean gas pipeline of course the gas pipeline which is an offshore apply fun runs for more than twelve hundred kilometers from or of russians want to go to germany it's not offshore pipeline that runs along the bottom of the baltic sea it has been in construction since april of two thousand and ten with

a key of this particular pipeline is that it will allow for russian gas to be transported to europe without any intermediary influence like ukraine and belarus which is the case right now of course to restoring the construction there has been some criticism from politicians or economists who are say you got this pipeline will make your of to dependent on russian gas but others of course have argued that vice versa this goes along diversification of european energy sources so the only please well for europe to have this pipeline running from russia to germany of course they have also been some environmental concerns bottle after all hurdles how did austin after it has been proven that this pipeline in fact does not present any danger to the environment or to european gas or energy supply the pipeline is going to be launched to date on the seacoast germany of course the russian president's visit will be accompanied by the german chancellor angela merkel along with the

french prime minister. this is a very very busy day ahead for the russian president we're expecting a lot from this particular visit of course we'll bring you the latest as we get it . reporting for us there now and business are turning around twenty minutes discovered nordstrom's journey from dream to reality and then later this hour former german chancellor gerhard schroeder who is now chairman of nordstrom tells us why means everyone is a winner. for you the european union need to rush. through. is also true it's not a question of the time has come to start cooperating and so looking back from all your logical differences when you she's in a situation where you can ship gas to china. and you are you know i hope russia never has to make a choice but the russian government is evidently pro european or europe cannot keep pushing gushue way it hurts russians price of fuel we have to keep in mind. the

alternative should be. europe has no such alternative to europe's geopolitical position. if it manages to enter a tight partnership with russia under the same time. or that would be a sound strategy again way into the future for us. to basically name. your hard schroeder the former german chancellor and the chairman of north stream project twenty five minutes time break it leaders are struggling to decide who should become the new prime minister to lead a crisis coalition george papandreou has agreed to go but is locked in a rout with the opposition leader over who should replace him. is under enormous pressure to act fast and push through cuts before it can get more emergency you cash further has asked the greeks how they assess the mess that they're. i think you're i think quite as rumbles long greece is once again. like

everyone i knew about the situation here in the country we decided to come. which is really giving up its value much of the euro quite the find out what the people of great have to say about it all. so that the camera and the might. come to. let the people take it away. we have. well this is a blast. all the people. are saying. everything is made. actually. it's like they're trying to frighten us or something like that hi my name's vicky. needy and i've been living in greece for ten years now my grandfather fought for this country and it saddens me that. right now there's a chance we might lose everything that we know in this country and there's really

not much we can do after i want. all the european snow but cold. but. why do they lend this money question don't they want the money but the thing with the situation right now and grief is that we don't feel real secure about anything but our salaries are held and you know in my age thinking about the children going to make and the decisions i have to do from then from now it's a really sad because. everybody here things that you know that the things could be better there's something more than the trouble there's something more. there are great because of it there is a lot of unemployment in greece now. that the people in greece are very skeptical about euro i think ok there it's better we are in euro. of course definitely

but there are so some serious problems. because a lot of people lost they lost their jobs you don't know what's called them some more you can you can plan your life i'm twenty years old and i don't have job. i have to leave with my parents i don't have money i can leave i hope for everybody to be calm and. try to get out of the crisis and i really hope everybody can help us to do that greece is a european country and greece and europe is a quick work. it worked i hope something can be done so we can save this beautiful country and be able to pass it on to our grandchildren and the children after that people thought the mike and had a chance to have that day the question now is whether anyone's going to be ready to listen to them but i think decisions are going to keep being made behind plates.

in fact miscarried. next to the financial firing line if italy where debts are piling up amid a record borrowing costs prime minister berlusconi is rapidly losing support all around him but he remains resolute in being the one to pass the country's austerity budget even so his former allies are not so sure one greek financial analyst says italy's politics are worse off than in his own country i think people are really still but soon largest threats to the eurozone and certainly italy is very concerning the political situation there is more unstable than it is in greece and more and rates are reaching very unsustainable levels. and there are many good reasons to worry for other countries and even cool countries like france who may well lose their aaa rating at some point in the future what they do have to do of course other than just bailing out some countries and putting up some defenses in

the short term has a really good look at the trees and the infrastructure of the whole project and see if there is some reform they can make it more workable of course when you have seventeen different very different economies in very different countries setting one uniform monetary policy is always going to be haphazard and when the e.c.b. itself countless in the country then things can be very problematic. still ahead for you this hour when confrontation is not an option. we look at how israel's military muscle flexing and fierce of foreign policy is turning its own people against signing up for service. and why russia's restive north talked to sixty's rising from the ruins with a powerful p.r. machine helping to attract thousands to the region. russia has issued a clear warning to israel over a possible attack on iran the foreign minister was responding to the israeli

president's suggestion that a military strike on iran is more likely than diplomacy sergey lavrov said any such attack would be a serious mistake with unpredictable consequences the u.n. nuclear watchdog is about to report on iran's nuclear activities where it is thought it will reveal computer models of an atomic warhead and other weapons related work israel's main ally the u.s. says it will focus on diplomacy but is ready to keep an all options open political analyst ivan eland says washington is unlikely to support israel's push for an attack. in china when mao and the chinese got nuclear weapons mao made direct threats to nuke the united states and of course lyndon johnson explored military options etc and of course they didn't take the chinese nuclear weapons out so i think you can deter this we have thousands of nuclear warheads russia has thousands of nuclear warheads i think the iranians could do what japan has done because japan has taken it all the way up to actually building a nuclear weapon they haven't done it they've shown they have the capability it's

or maybe that's what iran is trying to do maybe around never build a weapon they've shown that they can design a warhead that will fit on a missile getting the missile over here we've seen north korea had a lot of problems with that so we're not in the panic mode yeah but i think what the foreign minister said there is absolutely correct there's no good military option here if you want to make sure you get all the stuff you have to launch a ground invasion which would make the invasion of iraq look nice and right i mean look easy runs a much bigger country the terrain of the people there are not in a good mood towards america set or you have a lot of a lot of problems and of course they could attack by air israel or the united states could do that and that's the fear i think but there's just no good option it's increasingly tough talk that's driving away the very people that would need to defend itself that's on top of recent aggressive foreign policy moves such as the ground invasions of lebanon in two thousand and six and gaza three years ago policy

or reports on the israeli conflicts that are repellent it's conscripts for years it's been the cornerstone of the country's security but these days there's a real risk these way defense forces could be left to face this construction is at an all time you know and it's been. forty. fifty percent of the. jewish males. in the military. instead of choosing to serve the country people are choosing to serve themselves. twenty back on a stage most of the year and a half i was in the army trying to convince his superiors to release him on medical grounds they eventually did but only after he wasted months searching around he says doing nothing while in uniform if you get drafted for a. because of this feeling that i would be a parasite if i wouldn't and a couple months later i realized that actually my sole responsibility is to you

monica you are in person and human being i just couldn't take part in longer and there is what's called the israel defense forces which has nothing to do with defense other than my name and a growing number of israelis agree with him mr friedman made sure she scored low on her on the entrance tests so instead of serving as a soldier she's not doing civil service working as an art instructor and a center for the mentally disabled i have our friends in the army and they saw. how they were when they first came to them in how they are now and it's a lot of brainwashing actually and they just take you down from your identity and make you basically a soldier ten years ago the refusenik movement started in israel youngsters refusing to serve in the army on political grounds add to that the nearly fifteen percent of potential talk to us who don't serve because of religious reasons and a recent series of scandals also public trust in the military decline stated it's

about the state so to say that this video posted on you tube is a true israeli doesn't evade the truth in other words a true israeli avoids conscription fifteen or twenty years ago and everything like this would have been unthinkable in those days not serving in the army was something shameful but now youngsters have role models like activity in order to coppers former girlfriend israeli model barbara fady who evade. service and gave it a little missy bell ations of human rights. for our boys world absolutely this respect of international law it's crystal clear there's no question i mean as far as moral decisions go. it's not a big dilemma the only thing to overcome is actually of social pressure but that social pressure is loosening up which is why volunteers maxa have a lawn are trying to stop dodges by lobbying the government and speaking at schools

she says part of the problem is with the army itself it's very easy to be exempt you know if you go to the mental health officer with that you paid for he doesn't have the facilities the money the time to check you through lighting him or not he doesn't want to take the. study showed that i twenty twenty the number of military age jewish israelis who will not be serving will be the highest ever growing train has the military worried it won't have all the troops it needs especially now as the region heats up and army needs all the soldiers it can get policy r.t.e. television. and head to our tom for more on all of our stories plenty more for you there also. the hackers are back in the. up for another. attack this time targeting america's presidential election campaign.

our welcome surface as well as of the south thanks for joining me as we've been reporting on r.t. russia is set to start pumping gas to europe through the newly built north stream pipeline where across the launch for you throughout the day but now nicole explains how the world's longest underwater gas link came to fruition. russia's been selling gas to europe for half a century but the first pipeline running to austria completed in one thousand six to seven trading survived a long list of upheavals even the depths of the cold war failed to disrupt supplies however the breakup of the soviet union brought a new set of problems much of the energy infrastructure became the property of countries bordering russia with their own political and economic ambitions this resulted in a couple of so-called gas wars with ukraine and the old bust up with bella reuss which is where nord stream comes in the pipeline runs beneath the baltic linking russia directly to germany it's the longest subsidy pipeline in the world over

twelve hundred kilometers and it bypasses all transit countries at nine billion euros it's undoubtedly expensive but a pipeline last for up to fifty years so there's plenty of trying to make a return to the immediate benefit does it provide security of supply to europe which gets twenty five percent of its gas from russia and after thirty years of planning and two years of construction the first delivery is about to be made in the pool business r.t. admitted alexander from the universe and best of group outlines the benefits russia stands to gain from that step. russian opportunity to significantly increase its gas williams and to change the rules of already contracts and supplies on the back of almost drilling in the w.t. and the ability to take calls from the european rescue plan this makes russia even more interested in financial and energy. markets all prices are mixed up for crude
