open asia pacific markets and criticizing china for its trade and currency practices well it's now cross lifestyle correspondences he took by force. i see so are we seeing a new round of currency wars brewing there. well marina it looks like a new cloudy chapter in the book of currency wars between the united states and china has certainly been opened here at the apec summit in honolulu as barack obama is seeing really mounting pressure to homes to create home to create more jobs and take a stop a tougher stance on china he has been seeing here in honolulu that it's time for china to start playing by the rules as we know of course the united states has been incessant in demanding that china increase the value of the you on the united states believe that an undervalued currency creates an unfair competition for the united states and the united states the u.s. presidents wants to make sure that this is something that's gotten rid off because it creates an unfair disadvantage for american businesses according to obama but

china is really refusing to cooperate when it comes on the to this because they're saying it's their sovereign right been calling for mutual respect when it comes to decision making in the global markets and mentally many analysts have by have to see been since been standing behind china since this is a sovereign right of regulating currency china is completely fair to to abide by now it's interesting that while hu jintao has been quiet politically correct while speaking on this issue there is a tradition at summits where leaders get together and where national costumes for a photo opportunity it's really a fun time for leaders to each other in the back and joke around but this year journalists were surprised to see that this photo op in hawaiian shirts never happened and we were hearing that this is because china was refusing to put on the one shirt so it really looks like the united states had a hard time during these last two days at apac in honolulu convincing china not

only when it comes to konami issues but really issues of the wardrobe as well and this is something that many analysts are not surprised to see because the u.s. currently doesn't have a lot of leverage when it comes to dealing with china as china of course is the largest or creditor for the united states holding over one trillion dollars in u.s. debt. all right well russia is hosting the asia pacific summit next year and what it's helped to be completed shortly what can you bring to the table. well you know marina you're absolutely right russia is in fact pretty excited to host the apec summit next year in the far eastern city of lot of us the russian president has been seeing here that russia is all set everything is in full swing to get prepared for this and you know basically russia is not only just geographically very well strategically for the asia pacific. gathering and this big economic group because of the where it is on the world map it's really convenient

in terms of reaching the goals of the group in terms of boosting trade boosting investment so on and so forth but it's also traditionally been a big mediator when it comes to certain misunderstandings between the world's players so this is certainly a good role that russia can play when it comes to continuing to develop the goals of the gathering and of course last but not least you know russia's accession to the world trade organization is something that the russian federation has been ready for for quite some time for almost a decade so certainly it's been ready to go this entire time so what better time than now to really spearhead this gathering next year as a full fledged member of the w t o. c thanks very much indeed for bringing us the update live from honolulu and. asia pacific leaders in hawaii were also keen to shield themselves from the fallout in the euro zone and europe itself it's all changes technocrat government takeover greece and italy in rome commissioner mario monti is starting talks to form

a new cabinet to tackle debt sarah ferguson whether leaders no one voted for will do a better job down the old crew. it was never going to be easy to put your at seventeen countries of which you know on the one currency from the very beginning attracted fierce criticism we've witnessed the beginning of a dishonest and downright dangerous german president. to revive the constitution but to do it in such a way that you would have avoided referendums in like a member states some might now be wishing they'd heeded the warnings to one after another the member states began to wobble at least being the latest country to come under scrutiny we have been witnessing in the last long. growing pressure from europe and i'm talking in particular from crohn's and germany hardly the u.k. certainly the european parliament and the commission is going to start but the

crisis is safe in the leaders of greece and italy replaced by people who were never elected to office he knew their way around brussels and here it is totally with berlusconi now gone doesn't. paying for reforms now need to be implemented to meet tough. for the first time since the crisis began talks have now begun to turn to the possibility of exit from the year or the creation of the cool europe countries like germany seem to be leading the way but i think it's not in the best interest of the germans to keep on going with this attitude over here where you have behaved badly we're going to punish that's not a union in united states of america. behaved badly imagine taxes behaving badly when you think obama's going to we're going to kick you out of united states of america no they're not going to do the cooking stance is a bad year agreed had a good year has not gone on missed by struggling countries was this clear that

those who have a spend less now face up to painful stereotype measures the sense of being treated like a naughty school child any. added to the growing strain in the community it's only now starr said because well so the say there will expose much more france and especially germany to the times there are a big must be up to us to say to to express a political leadership not just for their own countries but for europe as a whole your attentions have not gone on missed by the financial markets have punished political leaders situating the feet in dealing with the crisis and struggling economies like italy even the. mistakes it's least being considered by many the test case for the entire a year you say it fails and it could take down the entire fifth the the question now is whether or not those measures can fix feet whether we'll see them going the same way as previous measures put forward by european leaders who say fall fails to

come up with a convincing your rescue service. it was president believes the new government could unite the country's political forces to tackle the crisis but financial advisor patrick young says a change of leadership in rome is not the miracle cure to take it out of crisis. the real problem here is the idea that suddenly overnight because we change the brand name of them hanging over the door of the office of prime minister we suddenly get a miraculous change in italy and the truth is italy has a huge amount of debt they need to sell that debt in the very near future in order to manage to ensure that they can pay the salaries of teachers and other members of the public service and ultimately it's going to be very difficult come what may because the markets have lost faith not just in italy but in fact in europe's souk old political leadership who are doing anything but lead and more we're looking at here is you know it's a little bit like i suppose trying to govern when you're used to the idea of

propelling a speedboat to run the country and in fact changing a nation is much more like captaining in the oil tanker i mean it takes these things several miles in order to manage to stop and turn round and it's the same with government i mean the intelligence of being told until recently everything was absolutely fine there was nothing to worry about an oil of a certain nucleus being told oh gosh actually we are talking we have to cut back on every possible service within government everybody is going to lose money we'd like you to just trust us the politicians who haven't obviously been telling the truth all along. and many more stories still to come this hour here on our year in the army now well almost a tough military like discipline looks set to be introduced in some u.k. schools but will it make the on really youth perfectly behaved we investigate also . planned budget cuts in the u.s. threatened to hit those who guarantee america's security the hardest war in just a few moments. syria has called an emergency meeting of the arab league in an

attempt to reverse the decision which saw it suspended from the organization the freeze on the country's membership and accompanying sanctions received wide support from the e.u. and the u.s. an overwhelming majority of member states voted for the measure to urge president bashar asad. to stop eight months of violence but it also triggered new protests and attacks on the turkish french and saudi arabian amber seize in damascus dozens more people were reportedly killed across the country on sunday in the latest wave of crackdowns on anti-government protests author and journalist afshin rattansi thinks the conflict in syria is being fueled from abroad and could drag on for some time many syrian soldiers have died in the conflict they don't normally report that here they just say civilians where are they getting the weapons from lockheed martin exhibiting in the dubai said the profits are up they said profits a very good in the middle east at the moment what i think i fear and what many

analysts may be fearing at the moment is that a saudi backed proxy war will continue and there will be an insurgency that is fighting in syria against the assad government who continue to cause instability in syria and beyond and this will be a sort of slow burn phenomena with the united states and europe taking a kind of backseat almost and also forget that turkey has been actively involved in the even told us diplomatic staff and as i understand it was advisor to the citizens to leave syria to turkey's big game here to the media is playing a massive game television station al-jazeera very obviously wanting the four of us out of the moment and the western media to. and a three man crew bound for the international space station is preparing to lift off from the baikonur cosmodrome and kazakstan it will be the first manned flight after a similar size rocket carrying an unmanned supply vessel crashed back to earth shortly after take off three months ago well tom barton is watching the

preparations on the ground for us. all here tom so how's the atmosphere on the launch pad and is a crow nervous. oh. well as you can see these are the snow we. are on the viewing platform it's a little bit chilly but through the swirling snow about a kilometer away three men are inside a rock is about to blast off to the international space station i'm told he is and he soon longs to laugh at all daniel but the three crew conducting the final checks know before being launched up to the international space station when they get out of the spending six months. out of the schools module top of the rocket that they will call on things will become their emergency escape vehicle recently we were all reminded of the serious need for a possible

a stapler in july this year the u.s. retarded space shuttle program and that meant that story this was the only link to the international space station and then in all. own land supplies it called going on a rocket failed on its descent options was limited but the worst was about all flights of rockets were suspended and it sent shock waves through all those involved in this program and raised serious questions about reliability. since then we can see the rocket taking a look no i mean what all the progress has gotten to this point. well that's when you know how to.

say. story stuff you. brought home a funnel for the international space station as a result of a cool feature on the rock in. the street should shoulder be joining in the details that changed. the course of the causal chain invite you know because it's done we wish them the best of luck on the should shortly be joining the rest of the extras so this could have. all right tom it was certainly exciting to watch this and especially against a snow background there and certainly we do hope for the very best for the crew and

their mission thanks so much indeed tom for bringing the sub date live the bucket or cause drama cast. the u.k. plans to get tough on gang culture by opening schools with tough army like discipline the measure was proposed in response to the riots that shook the u.k. last summer and while the plans authors believe discipline is casey critics fear it could actually illian a problem use further either ban it explains. as the going gets tough the tough get going army boot camps are the places set out of line it's this culture of self control the government now wants to bring into schools so it's calling on the cavalry well former soldiers to swap the front line for the front of a classroom following the riots across the u.k. the government fast tracking troops into teaching as a way it says to restore adults or thora t.

wants to provide more male role models even giving teachers new powers to use physical force as a way to control disruptive pupils it's not a bad thing for children to know where they stand. if they expect their side of the lie they will be punished accordingly if they stay on the right side of a lie. in the confines of the law and they will not be polished it's a line few would dare cross with a teacher like this afghans going to be headmaster at the new school where every teacher will be a former soldier uniform inspections and military style roll calls but with the polish of a strict routine when you can maintain discipline in the future war which is the most high pressured situation you can maintain discipline in a classroom in oldham but with corporal punishment now a step closer many fear it will push an already alienated youth further away i think they would start building their own gang as they've done towards the police now i've seen the police behave towards our kids is to gangs isn't it if you could

say the police are a gang it would be the army case kids i think they would become more unruly this charity takes in problem peoples the state system chucks out and turns their lives around according to teachers here it's about finding the right kind of stimulation rather than just cracking the whip they become unruly because they're bored but in discipline it isn't the answer just on the tone this is yes but actually making sure to go something at their own level for this sixteen year old that happened to be art he was expelled from school after what he'll only refer to as an incident and is still too afraid to be identified back then he was on course to fail all his exams but after just a year here he passed fourteen a far cry from someone supposedly too disruptive to teach. more discipline for children in schools do you think that would have worked. really one.

and the personnel cuts all across the military services and the reason apart from their marine corps anniversary and the vets day is u.s. marines can do anything and everything the u.s. army does but they do it much more effectively and efficiently. now as it looks from other stories from around the world three french aid workers held hostage in yemen for almost half a year have been freed they were kidnapped by suspectible militants at a restaurant east of the capital in may now details have been released about the terms of the release kidnappings of foreigners are frequent in the yemen but most of the hostages have been freed unharmed. in portland police in riot gear have surrounded hundreds of occupy protesters in their central park after they ignored if they can order is obvious there is used to tang's and threatened arrest if the

currency so says u.s. presidential. soon. six countries very silent portugal italy spain and cyprus that have different degrees of economic fiscal and financial difficulties. one or more of them may need to a structure that uses private and public that one or more of them may have two legs of a euro zone different off of them exhibit eurozone than that so frankly implies a breakup of the euro zone. that's maybe swallowing up europe but here in russia the budget position is reassuringly strong as burbank senior vice president denise believes that there is no room for complacency the books may be balanced but the russian economy still has a number of problems that need addressing. russia is obviously in a very different situation we as all countries russia faces challenges but those

challenges are different. and they're fairly good short term position from a fiscal standpoint there are plentiful reserves that being said pressure remains critically dependent on commodity prices and. there is some concern over the medium term fiscal. bias take a look at the markets this sell well is trading near the highest level in more than three months that's on news it to me has started building a new government and passes an austerity budget easing fears over europe's debt crisis blight suites is trading at one hundred nine dollars for a ballad brant bozell was one hundred and fifteen dollars. in asia stocks of takes up the positive news from europe financials and real estate firms are gaining in hong kong with this you know land having a six percent bank of going to patients i think two percent so if you're listed stocks getting a boost from news that japan's economy has grown in the third quarter following

three quarters of contraction gross domestic products of roses and then you lies to six percent in the july sixth year. one half hours ahead of the opening bell here in moscow the markets closed off about the negative note on friday that my six lost a third of a percent wildly off the s. and it in the black but by just a. russian equities tracked negative global sentiment last week over deepening years and debt crisis doug roles at the world believes that the eurozone problems starting to fade but that day in this case it may be significant domestic stories to provide direction. if there's been some resolution in italy and it has a prime minister in place and the markets feel more this is settled as to into the of the eurozone perhaps russia's market can focus more on in a domestic issues i think the main one which which has been known you know slightly

overshadowed this past you know week has been the entry into the didn't t.o. in the fact that the working group has you know finalized brushes and three document and there should be a vote on it in december are following the timeline russia could you know will lead to the first quarter. of next year and i think that if you know the market focuses more on domestic news than this would benefit most of all russian still companies the international energy agency expects natural gas consumption to grow fifty percent by twenty thirty five however russia is not likely to have the biggest part of the pie as china is expected to outperform it as the world's top producer the chief of the i.a.e.a. years shares her view on what should be russia's response to the global energy challenge if you really want to turn gas into the gas the luck if you will
