wired news live from the center of moscow this is artsy with me rule received show at 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 his trade and currency practices and these anastasio reports are the fact that next year's 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 stop a tougher stance on china he has been saying 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 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 group in terms of trade investment so on and so forth but it's also traditionally been a big mediator 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 russians obsession 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. t is an associate reporting but this is the

u.s. and china continue to outline competing economic programs hu jintao insisted on more influence for beijing is a growing power while obama zeroed in on china's trading decisions so what's on a boycott now explains the differences that have piled up between the two. if there is any us state with the occupy movement has little chance it's probably why despite the high concentration of politicians in wall street big week socializing at the apex. some of the only place people are willing to offer to buy here on mass at the beach is this one exception these pictures tours are against greed and social injustice they're against economic inequality and they're against china. who incidentally the mood at the podium was similar to look hostile i think we can benefit from trade with china and i want certainly to continue cultivating

a. a constructive relationship with the chinese 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 in the village here and i happen to think that the. communist chinese government will end up on the ash heap of history if they do not change their virtues we have to have china understand that like everybody else in 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 all others 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 conformant he's one of the top values

in the chinese meal devolved also reflected in the country's political and economic policy if it's not that china doesn't play by their rules the factually quite the opposite but the united states things to have an issue rip is that increasingly china rules and that they pretty much washington would prefer to keep it. 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 took it as a predator effort to change rules made game free trade tend to be. in the eyes of the beholder. it true for you the protection provided that i get to protect my precious. industries at the well will of our own personal national interests so it's always a dilemma as to how free it is 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 and. 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 if those about money usually have exact equivalents one of them is money makes the world go round the concept experientially familiar to washington and progressively so to beijing it's one of my guards at the apec summit in honolulu. and just a bit earlier we spoke to professor julian do from the chinese university of hong kong he told us that political reasons in the united states are driving washington's criticism of beijing it's created the difficult days before the us had to raise employment rates. actually the current the difficulties of the us

government creating jobs lysine the fact that the us has lost the competitive it's a competitive advantage in most of the traditional manufacturing industries so you know you china reduce its exports to the us by increasing its it has generated other low wage emerging markets a controversy with the stampede to replace that account so these kind of debate i think the chinese leaders are quite clear mind you that you know upholding the canyon interests the national interests of the us is a presidential election isn't poaching and china the chinese case the chinese economy and they can use the currency which is the i used to ask ask scapegoat for us the difficult the economic difficulties again so recent thread that's why i mean the us is nearing its theory i cannot gain. asia pacific leaders in hawaii were also keen to shield themselves from the fallout in the eurozone a little bit later here on r.t. we see whether government changes in the e.u.

will provide any protection. technocratic governments are taking over in debt ridden greece and italy but critics say they'll be better able to serve the interests of brussels. and you're in the army now well they have a tough military like discipline looks set to be introduced in some way u.k. schools will it make perfectly behaved we are set to investigate. syria has called the arab league's decision to suspend the country from the organization in the judgment the freeze and accompanying sanctions are due to come into force on wednesday have already received wide support from the e.u. and us however russia has strongly opposed the measure. was following the latest developments for us our peter good to see you so russia has long warned against sanctions and hasn't really changed its position tell us what exactly has been said . well russian foreign minister sergey lavrov has expressed russia's dismay at the

decision to suspend syria from the arab league went on to suggest that he saw the shadowy figures of western government behind this decision to remove syria from the arab league now russia of course is opposed to any kind of military intervention and further sanctions to be imposed upon syria but they are concerned the situation in syria could go down perhaps a similar route as the situation in libya did where we saw outside military intervention foreign governments straying well beyond the parameters that were laid out in un resolution something that russia has said that they will do everything within their power to stop happening in syria as they try and push for a peaceful solution to the ongoing conflict in the country. it is interesting how you draw the comparison here as we have heard from some human rights were. calling about people's rights of protection in syria of course that was a whole un resolution one ninety three for libya that was supposed to protect

civilians in the first place then as you know that the military intervention began but syria has called for an emergency meeting of the arab league to reverse the decision hasn't been any reaction to that yet. well the arab league will hold that emergency meeting on wednesday now that meeting is expected to see the decision to suspend syria rubberstamp then and made it official now there's also been calls for further sanctions on syria from around the world the european union want to see the assets of eighteen people frozen that's expected to come through very shortly they also want to see further sanctions placed on the syrian government themselves now inside syria what we're seeing following this decision from the arab league to suspend them we're seeing mass protests we've also seen these protests turned violent the embassies of the saudi arabia of turkey and of fronts of all being attacked during those. those protests against the decision to

to disposed to. suspend syria from the arab league now since this conflict began eight months ago three thousand five hundred people are estimated to have being killed however the syrians say that suspending them from the arab league is not the way to bring an end to this to this conflict right hearty to put all of our lives in the heart of moscow thank you. here with r.t. it's all change for europe as a technocrat government takeover in greece and italy in rome the former e.u. commissioner mario monti starts talks to form a new cabinet to tackle the country's huge debt. exports now or whether the new unelected leaders can do a better job than the previous team. it was never going to be easy to put this suit unite you're at seventeen countries of which are now 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 eight constitution but to do it in such a way that you want to avoid 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 the latest country to come under scrutiny we have been witnessing in the last at least one long. growing pressure from europe and i'm talking in particular from france and germany partly the u.k. certainly the european parliament and the commission it's going to start but the crisis is safest 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 really with berlusconi now gone he doesn't and 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 with countries like germany seem to feel it in 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 you frustrated me hates badly imagine taxes behaving badly when you think obama is going to we're going to kick you out of united states of america no they're not going to do that the cooling sense is a bad year a group had a good year ago it has not gone on missed by struggling countries lost it's clear that those who haven't spent 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. now well so the say it will expose much more france and especially germany

to the times there i believe 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 no golden mist by the financial markets here punish political leaders situating their feet in dealing with the crisis the struggling economies like italy even the napery think the mistakes it's least being considered by many the test case for the entire a year if it fails and it could take down the entire fifth the question now is whether or not those measures can fix the weather will see them going the same way as previous measures put forward by european leaders who say fails to come up with a convincing. third. it is a right now crossing a quarter past the hour here in moscow a three man crew bound for the international space station has successfully lifted off from the baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan this is the first manned flight after a similar soyuz rocket carrying an unmanned supply vessel crashed back to work shortly

after takeoff that was three months ago now. was on the launchpad for. launch time at the baikonur cosmodrome these three men have gone up to join their colleagues on the international space station but they're late and unhappy about why it is a risky business you can never eliminate risk altogether that that's the bargain that you make for the privilege of flying humans in space and 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 a manned but all launches were put on hold but worries about the safety of soyuz rockets now the only link to the space station crew since the last u.s. shuttle flight and july. this crew of their launch date set back their relatives were especially nervous after the progress 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 dangers 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 that the rocket was lifted into place on its launch pad we can see the rocket taking off now and we'll watch the progress. but. with a deep sighs of relief all watched as the rocket blasted successfully into orbit leaving the crew to experience what all the rest of us really dream about. you can actually get a good view of the earth during the flight and the spacecraft but surely will have time to enjoy it better while on 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 the measure was proposed in response to the riots that shook the u.k. in the summer and while the plan's authors believe discipline is key critics fear it could actually alienate problem youths further artie's i bennett 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 sort the front line to 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 adult or thorazine wants to provide more male role models

even giving teachers new powers to use physical force as a way to control disruptive peoples it's not a 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 the line. in the confines of the law and they will not be punished it's a line few would cross with a teacher like this afghans going to be headmaster at a 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 or 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 the kids i think they would become more unruly this charity takes in problem people's 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 routine because they're bored putting discipline it isn't the answer just on the tone this is yes but actually making sure they got 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 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 for. only one.

class of poor and causes more talking is just shit works. for coastal borden really want to. today listening to an individual attention was the only thing that turned this boy's education around but with a system that prides itself on conformant see the battle could be only just beginning i've been it's artsy london. and i want to remember you can always find that many more stories on our website r.t. dot com here's a quick look at what else is lined up for you there right now but 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 that's what one syrian differ about beliefs you can watch his full interview at our t.v. dot com. and in the caucuses there's a no winner in the republic of south though said he has first round of voting but none of the presidential candidates getting the required number of votes find out who's left to fight it out in the second round at r.t.

likely implies a breakup of the eurozone well death may be strangling europe but here in russia the budget position is reassuringly strong however as burbank's 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 to be addressed. russia is obviously in a very different situation we as as a whole countries russia faces challenges but those challenges are different. and they're in a fairly good short term position from a fiscal standpoint there are plentiful reserves that being said pressure remains critically dependent commodity prices and. there is some concern over the medium term fiscal. signal to the markets the european markets losing some of the gains seen in the early hours on news that its new starts of building a new government i'm awesome mr blodgett easing fears europe's debt crisis well
