splined in touch with her tell me touch your group which is a good girl i would. flood to change every green her till into. the latest summit of pacific powers and why opens a financial can of worms when the world's two biggest economies. a new twist in the currency wars between the u.s. and china as washington calls on to start playing by the rules but china is calling its own shots we'll bring you all the latest details from honolulu just ahead in the program. syria seeks to reverse the arab league's decision to suspend it from the organization amid growing and he regime protests which some believe sponsored from a. man blasting into orbit a crew of three heads to the international space station it's the first launch since a similar rocket carrying an unmanned supply craft crashed back to us. it

is now or just after two pm on monday here in moscow this is here with me reception as the gathering of the pacific rim is political and economic heavyweights winds down in hawaii it's the latest rift between the globe's two centers of financial influence which is dominating the u.s. has been criticizing china for its trade and currency practices and its. reports and the fact that next year summit is taking place in russia could help to solve some of the biggest sticking points. 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 at home to create more jobs and take a start

a tougher stance on china he has been seeing here in honolulu that it's time for china to start playing by the rules of us currently doesn't have a lot of leverage when it comes to dealing with china as china of course is the largest foreign creditor for the united states holding over one trillion dollars in u.s. debt russia is pretty excited to host the apec summit next year in the far eastern city of lot of us stocks basically russia is not only just geographically very well strategically placed 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 a group in terms of. investment so on and so forth but it's also traditionally been a big media when it comes to certain misunderstandings between world 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 very the question to the world of an aviation 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. he's an associate trucking reporting right but this year the u.s. and china continue to align competing economic programs who insisted or more influence for beijing is a growing power well obama zeroed in on china's trading decisions on a boycott now explains the differences sort of a hold up between the two. if there is any us state where the occupy movement has little chance it's probably how by despite the high concentration of politicians in wall street big week socializing at the apec summit the only place people are willing to occupy here on mass at the beach is this one exception these protesters are against greed and social injustice they're against economic inequality and they

are against china. i. couldn't sit down clearly the mood at the podium was soon a little hostile i think we can benefit from frayed which i. certainly continue cultivating a. constructive relationship with the trying his government but we're going to continue to be firm in insisting that they operate by the same rules that. everybody else operates on his political opponents were even immobility here and happen to think that the. communist chinese government will in the. heap of history if they do not change their virtues we have to have china understand like everybody else on the world stage there to play by the rules rules rules and again rules as a country that's been ruling the roost for decades the united states has never been

shy of policing authors but as china's g.d.p. continues adding nine percent a year against it and a half percent growth in the u.s. the reprimand seems to be internally driven comportment he's one of the top values in the chinese meal devolved also reflected in the harshest political and economic policy that's not that china doesn't play by the rules and factually quite the opposite but the united states seems to have an issue rip is that increasingly china rule that's the privilege washington were persecuted for. as the us president hailed his new free trade asia pacific pact as a win win to boost trade in the region some in china as a predator effort to change rules need. free trade and to be. in the eyes of the beholder. it's free for you protection for me that i get. precious industries at. will.

so it's always a dilemma. as the euro crisis continues metastasizing throughout the world and china is asked to shoulder the load many analysts say the west should keep in mind its old adage about he who pays the piper china is really in the driver's seat in many respects and this is coming at an awkward time for the united states because the united states is clearly a declining power at the same time and is having trouble adjusting to what that means many chinese proverbs are difficult to translate into english here those about money usually have exactly equivalence. one of them is money makes the world go round the concept that story actually familiar to washington and progressive to beijing. are at the apec summit in honolulu. just a bit earlier here on r t we spoke to professor from the chinese university of hong kong he told us that it's the political reasons in the united states that are

driving washington's criticism. it's created difficulties for the u.s. and to raise the employment rate. the current the difficulties of the us government in creating jobs the fact that the us has lost the compared to its comparative advantage in most of the traditional manufacturing industry so you hear china reduced its exports to the us by increasing its. other low wage emerging market countries with a staff to replace. so these kind of the big i think the chinese leaders are quite clear minded holding the chinese interest the national interest the us the presidential election is approaching and they can use case they can use economy and they can use the currency is used as a. scapegoat for us and difficult economic difficulties again saw it recently

therefore i am in the us that's a very it's a theory and i can again. now leaders in hawaii also keen to shield themselves from the fallout of the eurozone but later here in r.t. we see whether government changes in the e.u. will provide any protection. for technocrats governments are taking over in debt ridden greece and italy but critics say they'll be better able to serve the interests of brussels. pound a year in the army now well nearly tough military like discipline looks set to be introduced in some u.k. schools but will it make the unruly youth perfectly behaved we are set to investigate. now nearly ten minutes past the hour here in moscow syria has called an emergency meeting of the arab league in an attempt to reverse the decision which store it suspended from the organization but the freeze on the country's membership and accompanying sanctions receives wide support from the e.u.

and the united states an overwhelming majority of member states voted for the measure to urge president bashar al assad to stop eight months of violence and triggered thousands strong protests in damascus and attacks on the turkish french and saudi embassies russia has opposed syria suspension from the arab league and said western nations are inciting the conflict author and journalist actually returns he thinks the conflict in syria is being fueled front of broad and could drag on for quite some time. many syrian soldiers have died in the conflict they don't normally report here they just say it's a villian where are they getting the weapons from lockheed martin exhibiting in the dubai airfares said profits are up they said profits are very good in the middle east at the moment what i think i fear many analysts may be fearing at the moment is that a saudi backed proxy war will continue and there will be were insurgents he really 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 the turkey has been actively involved in this even killed this diplomatic staff and as i understand it is advisory to citizens to leave syria to turkey is playing a game here too and the media is playing a massive game cazares television station al-jazeera very obviously one thing the four of us at the moment and the west media do. and it is all change for europe technocrat government takeover in greece and italy in rome the former e.u. commissioner merriam monti starts talks to from when you cabinets attack on the country's huge debt parties sarah first now explores whether the new unelected leaders can do a better job than the old korea. it was never going to be easy to put it this suit unite europe seventeen countries of which are now under one currency in 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 want to avoid referendums in case of member states some might now be wishing they'd heeded the warnings to one after another the member states became too vocal it's least the latest country to come under scrutiny we have been wouldn't sing 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 it's going to start back twice is to say first the leaders of greece and italy were placed by people who were never elected to office he knew their way around brussels here it is really with berlusconi now gone doesn't. paying for reforms now need to be implemented to meet . for the first time since the crisis began talks have now begun to turn to the

possibility of exit from the euro or the creation of the cool euro countries like germany seems to be leading the way but i think it's not in the best interest of the germans to keep on going with this i think you know you're right you have behaved badly we're going to punish that's not a union in the united states of america the first 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 be calling stenson bad year oakley today. has not gone on missed by struggling countries was this clear that those who wait to spend this now face the painful stories he measures a sense of being treated like a naughty school child. added to the growing strain community it's now well so to say there will expose much more france and especially germany

to the times there to say to express a political leadership not just for their own countries but for europe as a whole your attentions have not missed by the financial markets punish political leaders. in dealing with the crisis in struggling economies like italy and now even for the stakes it's really being considered by many to test case for the entire year if they it fails and it could take down the entire. question now is whether or not those measures can be whether we'll see them going the same way as previous measures put forward by european leaders who say failed to come up with a convincing. third. i don't really quarter past the hour now here in the russian capital a three man crew bound for the international space station has not successfully lifted off from the park nor cosmodrome in kazakhstan this is the first manned flight after a similar soyuz rocket carrying an unmanned supply vessel crashed back to earth

shortly after takeoff that was not what three months ago so we're talking he was at the launch for us. launch time at the baikonur cosmodrome these three men have gone up to join their colleagues in the international space station but they're late and unhappy about why it is a risky business you can never eliminate risk altogether that's that's the bargain that you make for the privilege of flying humans in space on accomplishing what they do up there on the twenty fourth of august a supply rockets engines failed on its way up to the i.s.a.'s and it plummeted back to worth with a bang it was unmanned but all launches were put on hold but worries about the safety of so is rockets now the only link to the space station crew since the last u.s. shuttle flight and july said this crew of their launch date set back their relatives were especially nervous after the program's crash what do you think about your

husband's launch coming up so soon. it's too difficult it's better not to talk about it. the crew themselves though accept the changes as part of the job. because we're upset about the accident of course but every big project has some room for failure unfortunately this is not completely avoidable but we shouldn't dramatize the situation. and so it was the rocket was lifted into place on its launch pad we can see the rockets taking off with what's broke. out. with a deep sighs of relief all watched as the rocket blasted successfully toward it leaving the crew to experience what all the rest of us only dream about. you can actually go to a good view of the earth during the flight and the spacecraft there but surely will have time to enjoy the better while the international space station for that view

and from ams future in space they say the risk is worth it. tom barton r.t. . now the u.k. plans to get tough on gang culture by opening schools with stringent army like discipline and the measure was proposed in response to the riots that shook the u.k. in the summer and other plans authors believe discipline is key critics fear it could actually alienate a problem with youths further but i have been in our experience the story. 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 in to schools so is calling on the cavalry well former soldiers to stop the front line for the front of a classroom following the right to cross the u.k. the government in troops into teaching as a way it says to restore adults or thorazine and 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 bad thing for children to know where they stand. if they step this 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 punished it's a line few would cross but a teacher like this afghans are going to be headmaster of the new school where every teacher will be a former soldier uniform inspections and military style roll calls with the polish i was 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 order 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 a vampire or the police now i think the police behave towards our kids is to gangs

isn't it you can see the police are a gang it would be the army kids i think it would become more unruly it is charity takes in problem peoples the state system chucks out and turns their lives around the calling to teach is here it's about finding the right kind of stimulation rather than just cracking the whip it become unruly because you're bored putting discipline it isn't the answer just on the tone this is yes but at making sure it was 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 passed fourteen a far cry from someone supposedly too disruptive to teach. more discipline children in schools keeping that wouldn't work for you. really not

seeing as close and call and call doesn't or talking as a strict work. so you can focus on the building we do want to go to listen to individual attention was the only thing that turned this boy's education around but with a system that prides itself on conformance see the battle could be only just beginning i've been it's r t. twenty past the hour here para mine you can always find more stories on our website a quick look now at what else is lined up for you in our dot com even if colonel gadhafi had lived another one hundred years he could not have killed more people than nato did during its bombing of libya but that's what one syrian diplomat believes and what is in the view in full at our t.v. dot com. and in the caucuses there's no winner in the republic of south or thirty years first round of voting with none of the presidential candidates getting the required number of votes but find out who's left to duke it out in the second round

at r.t. dot com. a crew member is reported missing and another person is in critical condition after a fire on a cruise ship here in moscow around twenty people are reported to have been on board when the fire broke out in the early hours of monday morning but most escaped unharmed with at least two recording injuries faulty wiring or careless handling of fire is are thought to have caused the blaze this is not the first incident on water in russia this year in july nine died in a boat collision collision of moscow and in the same month one hundred twenty died when a pleasure cruiser sank on the border with. in an attempt to slash its huge national debt the u.s. is looking to cut where it can even the mighty defense budget were described as the pentagon looks for a four hundred fifty billion dollars saving over the next ten years military contributor believes that the pentagon chief should stand up for those who

america's security depends on. today when they debate about their pens are going to cuts in the full rage and desperation leave when america and its allies celebrate their veterans day and the enter verse or of the u.s. marine corps and this provides a unique opportunity for the u.s. secretary of defense to tackle the question not what the u.s. marine corps can do for the parents again but what he can do for the u.s. marines and here a couple of suggestions first to exempt them marines from the sequestration and their personnel cuts all across the military services and the reason apart from them or even corps anniversary and the grads today is u.s. marines can do anything and everything the u.s. army does but they do it much more effectively and efficiently.

all right in just a couple of minutes here it's certainly true with business news but for now the world update for you here on r.t. an explosion has killed seven people and injured over a dozen in the northwest of china the blast ripped through a commercial building in a suburb of xian city and shattered windows far away from the scene witnesses believe the explosion may have been caused by a gas leak in a restaurant. three french aid workers held hostage in yemen for almost half a year have now been free they were kidnapped by suspected al qaeda militants at a restaurant east of the capital in may no details have been given about the terms of the release kidnappings of foreigners are quite frequent in yemen but most of the hostages have been freed unharmed. in portland police in riot gear have surrounded hundreds of occupy protesters in the central park after they ignored those officers used batons and threatened arrests of the demonstrators

fail to comply the protests are part of a larger movement against social and economic inequality and corporate greed in america and around the world. one palestinian has been killed and several others wounded by an israeli airstrike on a compound involvement gas that the strike targeted a maple base used by hamas leaders really military said the attack came after a rocket was fired into southern israel hours earlier and israeli commander said the military is preparing to topple the hamas government. so i promise you are not see it start time for to victory and the latest business. thanks italy has no other choice but to exit the euro zone and bring back its national currency even if this means the collapse of the euro so says prominent economist also to do. six countries and various other parts of

other people respect the cyprus that have different degrees of economic fiscal and financial difficulties. one or more of them a made to a structure that uses private ip that's one or more of them may have to make use of a euro zone different off of them legs of a euro zone than that so frankly implies a break up of the euro zone. that's maybe strangling europe but here in russia the budget position is reassuring very strong however as banks a senior vice president in his book off believes there is no room for complacency the books may be balanced but the russian economy still has a number of problems that need address. in russia is obviously in a very different situation he has as all countries russia faces challenges but those challenges are different here. and they're fairly good short term position from a fiscal standpoint their country from shares that being said russia remains critically

dependent on commodity prices and them there is some concern over the beach or just about. signal to the markets the south or oil is trading still near the highest level in more than three months however it's coming down from the gains we saw earlier today light sweet is down sixty two cents this brant is below one hundred fourteen dollars but the. european markets sold so using early gains in the morning hours on news italy has started building a new government and passes no steroids the budget easing fears somewhat over europe's debt crisis however is that he's boring costs have sunk to six point four percent for ten year bonds well below dangerous levels on the confidence that economist mario monti will form a strong government without politicians. russia indeed started the week on

a positive note losing some of the steam but still remaining positive the audience is up thirty percent my six point six percent so if you look at what's moving the markets financials are mixed this hour bt b. is up almost two percent that's burbank as come down gazprom another energy blue chips are also because they have no but because one of the largest gaiters after reporting first nine months net profit warning to russian accounting standards almost ninety percent is gold however is down the continue mostly supply lines as the your precious metal and you're sitting. on russian equities track negative global sentiment last week or with a deepening euro zone crisis doug roles that you're also obsessed investors should be keeping an eye on the rubles the value and the strength of europe. ruble could continue to strengthen a bit i wouldn't be afraid of of holding rules i think that the the euro should strengthen as well now that the issues over you know gleason really seem to be

resolving them selves and expect that the new euro would strengthen a bit against the other dollar on the back over strengthening the oil you know which tends to you know strengthen in line with a stronger euro weaker dollar. i would look again at russian oil companies arkansas believe in assume that have to gas and tap left i would be ones that would benefit from this in a strengthening oh woe price oh look at those as well capsize and talks to acquire a stake in the arctic liquefied natural gas project led by russia's gas producer nova tech the your mouth projects are expected to produce five million tonnes of l.n.g. a year when production begins in twenty sixteenth's and then boost that threefold qatar's energy minister mohammed al sabah says the country is keen to take. up on is very much interested in the investment. generally and you can read as it can you
