12:02 am
to try and get russia's support for a peaceful end to the ongoing violence in syria now they're hoping that russia can live up to their office of being a mediator in the syrian conflict that's ongoing now they will be hoping they've said the syrian opposition has said they want to see a new chapter opened in syrian and russian relations and they're hoping to be part of us now from the russian side they'll be appealing to the opposition leaders to bring an end to the violence asking them to to put the people of syria ahead of any. kind of campaign for regime change any kind of campaign to remove president assad from power to put the people of syria as they are the ones that are suffering most at the the the bitter end of this violence three thousand five hundred people are estimated to being killed so far in the the eight months this is raged on and russia very much calling for
12:03 am
a peaceful end to do that conflict which is one of the reasons they're meeting with the syrian opposition today now for russia's from russia's point of view certainly a love for all of the foreign minister expressed russia's dismay at the decision to expel city a from the arab league suggesting that the shadowy hounded western governments who want to see an escalation of this violence and want to see regime change in syria had been behind that decision from the arab league to remove syria from their membership what we have seen in response in syria to the decision is must protest in damascus in pro syrian government protesters they've also been some protests outside of the embassies of saudi arabia and qatar over the past couple of days since that decision was made the big worry that it could be for syria is the last nation to be suspended from the arab league was libya and one thing that russia for . but their part is that is they definitely do not want to see any kind of outside
12:04 am
military interference in syria similar to what we saw in libya where the parameters of the un mandate were straight beyond with wild disarray really by the nato forces the forces. outside military interference into libya a similar situation is something that russia is desperate to try and stop happening in syria which is one of the reasons why the syrian opposition has been invited here for talks. whether king of jordan is the latest to arab leader to join the chorus of disapproval over syria president assad to step down online journalist james corbett thinks it's unlikely or sad can stay on much longer i really don't see a way for the assad government in ukraine its current foothold collection on the country given the way that things are unfolding. certainly russian or chinese overtures in that area would would be i suppose helpful in this regard but i certainly don't
12:05 am
know if it's going to make any fundamental difference in the same way that no amount of of protest over what was taking place in libya really seem to be real damage and i think all this does is. of the notion that there was ever any consideration for what the people of syria really want certainly we see we see that clean up right now with syria and with the thousands of people who are protesting in in favor of the assad government exactly as we saw earlier this summer we saw hundreds of thousands of potentially even more protesting in tripoli in support of the gadhafi government but obviously had no effect on and rhetoric that was taking place in the west you know with its arab league suspension i think we see a dangerous new moment where really a new perhaps an even a military intervention is definitely on the table. well russia has a long been against intervention in syria and later a former foreign minister and veteran diplomat explains why he says the lessons of iraq what's be learned. you know which i don't think they were stupid to take this
12:06 am
action now but they the security council's backing i think we're smarter now and at the time when the first security council resolution was adopted we will not adopt another resolution using big terms which could be used for legitimize in these activities. nobody knows when libya is going to recover from kills look at iraq for example it's been more than eight years and they still can stabilize the situation t.v. never stops reporting new casualties fifteen dead thirty dead every day in iraq bombs explosions and so on it could happen so regularly that people get used to it we start thinking this is normal it is chaos over eight and a half years of occupation there's been nothing we could do in libya it's going to be even tougher so i don't think if i had much success in libya. yes the full interview with former russian prime minister copies here in just over an hour's time about. a. new technique craft led governments in greece and italy
12:07 am
are getting down to business to try and tackle their massive debts italy's newly appointed prime minister says it's too early to determine how this country would cope with the crisis measures is warning people to prepare for such reverses some parties want wanted to once more through but the former e.u. chief says leaving early would undermine confidence he wants to stay the next federal election twenty thirteen but the clock is ticking for greece will probably stay in a fifty week. but in its place is a confidence vote on wednesday and says securing the next great artist a priority in this country must stick with the euro but our business editor nick poole explores how the single currency is flaws of the some countries to ruins rather than riches. it was supposed to bring peace and prosperity for all but for a while it did but now the euro is costing people their jobs their pensions and
12:08 am
even the democratic rights from the beginning the flaws were there for everyone to see skeptics said economies of the likes to sleep increase which is too different from germany in finland to be regulated by one system but of commitment idealism carried the day a new currency was born it was strong and stable and was regulated in ways the german central banker might approve of but very latest seeds of the problem greece italy portugal and spain now had their hands on a strong currency and could borrow against it and unlike before the interest rates they would have to pay would be much less so much more which is what they did italy currently has a debt to g.d.p. ratio around one hundred twenty percent greece is more than one hundred sixty percent that's a bit like somebody with an income of twenty thousand dollars a year i mean thirty two thousand on their credit card they will be bankrupt the banks won't lend any more money the flat screen t.v. will be repossessed and will be a diet of cabbage and potatoes in the worst case. it's similar for
12:09 am
a country but instead public sector pay is caught and thousands of people are forced out of the jobs before the euro greece and italy always have the possibility of devaluing the currency when times were this had the effect of lowering total debt and of conferring a competitive advantage as products services the labor became cheaper and this stimulated economic growth it also made people poorer as the money in their pockets was worth less but crucially it did not result in mass redundancies especially not imposed by a foreign power under hard currency like the euro this option is no longer available to be indebted nations so instead they must cut because they remain uncompetitive they cannot grow the worst of both worlds. politicians fail to put a lid on greece and italy is soaring brewing the question now is whether the economic hit squads can do any better when it sees a financial expert next kaiser is far from convinced saying the bankers behind the
12:10 am
scenes are continuing to play the system the night of the living dead and all of these zombie bankers they can't get rid of them you can't kill them they live to bank another day they are a plague around the world and certainly in europe there are no law actions but they're putting bankers in charge to bring about total banker domination as the world goes down a slippery slope into banker hell in place of the elected officials put in place an elected bankers and of course they work together they work with the central banks to keep the keys keeping interest rates near zero percent because this allows them to fund their speculations of zero cost they don't want to spend any money to borrow money to put the outrages of parents on the table and every time they lose a bed they impose more austerity measures every time they win a bet they keep one hundred percent of the profits in the eurozone they have an opportunity to bring all the balance sheets of all the countries together and
12:11 am
create a new lending facilities like. which is a new five trillion euro lending facility and they want to build on that to create ten twenty trillion euro lending facilities because bankers get paid on how much debt they create their own mind the fact that the pay for the debt ultimately their film pose more austerity measures more austerity measures more debt more fees for bankers more financial terrorism. later in the program the torture and abuse on america's watch and the tourist one ton of prison is still open for business ten years on this one of your banner ministrations repeated promises to shut it down also. by this strange noise is creating a buzz among radio p.c.'s in the world we decoded what they could mean and where they may be coming from and if you minutes. police in oakland in
12:12 am
california had moved in to dismantle tents put up out of self-styled occupy protesters. some three weeks ago bryant clashes which left on the iraq war veteran severely injured while thousands have been protesting across the u.s. against social economic inequality and corporate greed activists go out and shut down wall street and strikes and rallies marking two months since the start of the movement the thirty's are equally determined to stop the protests with raids and arrests. the police made in changing tactics. we're here in downtown oakland for the occupy wall street protesters are marching back to the god that very same process from which they were addicted just hours ago now in her words and the city spending close to a million dollars and getting police departments from all across the area to come down and have big these protesters why the expense of the occupy wall street movement is going to continue to remain is very very unclear now we did see a heavy handed show of force yesterday just thirty two arrests not too much
12:13 am
confrontation with protesters and police behaved in a much more up way than they had in previous times where we saw the excessive use of this here gas flash bang grenades not times of other non-lethal weapons now i'm here with leo he is now one of the protesters he's been here from the start what's your sense now why is he allowing everyone to come out of the city realizes the last time they use leap non lethal force say it actually drove more and more people into the streets so by actually stepping back in small ways it makes it seem a little bit less scary the mayor has actually said that she will allow us to continue to have general assemblies in the plaza as long as we again do not camp out from the hours of ten pm till six in the morning right now we still have ciliary can still park so you know for the most part we're at the same place we were before two weeks ago except with a lot less tear gas and a lot less injured people we are here to stay and you know every hour every day
12:14 am
this occupation is here to stay and we're not going away well you heard the man himself the occupation is here to stay and we had our tea we'll be covering it for you this is lucy catherine of reporting for our team in town town opened. now russia is warning against imposing new sanctions on iran saying the policy has outlived its usefulness the foreign minister's comments follow the diplomatic fallout. reports suggesting tehran. some who've looked at the details the reports conclusive sections that. europe. there is limited information a lot of the reason it's limited is because iran does not have a nuclear weapons program right a our most likely pursuing a nuclear latency that means that they're doing this research there are enriching uranium but they haven't made the decision to actually pursue a nuclear weapon the stations that have already been in place against iran have
12:15 am
been pretty devastating to ordinary people in iran it is you know helps drive up the costs of a lot of goods with the new sanctions that are being talked about it's actually we're at a point where we've run out of things to sanction and we're actually looking at things that are going to sanction ourselves there's talk of sanctioning iran central bank which would effectively taking iranian oil off the market and you know it could put the world into economic tailspin and there's really there's two paths here either you do the military thing which has been presented as ok you call one off strikes and then you know it's over but in reality and what the u.s. defense secretary recently said is that the best that would do is set iran's program back by two or three years you would see them rapidly escalate the program they'd go into you know manhattan project sort of mentality and pursue a nuclear weapon outright and you know in a lot of respects be driven into that. other alternative to the military action is
12:16 am
full scale war which nobody can afford right now then the other path that you have is a diplomatic resolution and that's sort of the path that not a lot of people are willing to talk about but if the end goal is to solve this and not do immense damage to the u.s. and the globe there is going to have to be a day in the future when we are at the table with the ron and we actually set up an agreement where iran is not able to develop a nuclear weapons capability they have safeguards on their program and you know we address some of the issues that we have concerns about and we have avoided a devastating war. but undercover operation to weaken iran might already be underway as r.t. reports online we investigate claims that israel's intelligence agency could be behind an explosion of them going through base and iran killed seventeen people including a key figure in real defense also. a cosmic journey

12:19 am
a lot of promises that have been made it's political this came down to deal making with senators such as john mccain lindsey graham where they would not get behind certain policies that the president wanted to push forward unless there were promises made that first of all at one time i would remain open that military commissions would continue i think that for the most part it's fear mongering and it's politically charged. well two other world news now this hour nuclear contamination is proving to be worse than expected with radioactive material in parts of the east exceeding level say for farming is the first detail the estimate of the pollution caused by the disaster in march crop production the contaminated there is a lot of it's really affected by the findings of. a killing

12:21 am
that's enough has been tuning in. the sound that's been gripping the imagination of radio spotters worldwide for over three decades. the u.v.b. seventy six also known as the buzzer. first aroused my interest because it is so strange personally i think it's a legacy device that in the in the late seventy's or eighty's. the military operations at the time its original this is. the sea has been going like this since the start whenever that was. sometimes that was or stops in a meal or a body quake voice a listener and numbers in russian. families

is the soviet union's and now russia's contact with spies or evil civilizations from are the rules. you must live as been a real fan since his childhood he's also had his share of the wiser but his explanation of his purpose is much more down to earth. and this sort of connection is extremely reliable it will shut down in case of a large nuclear explosion but only for a few hours it's not dependent on anything that's why it's so widely used today by the army the idea is pretty simple and new to a radio station sends out the gaza which is received by other army bases by stopping the gaza operators signals that a command called of letters and numbers is. bound to be broadcast and when the transmission is complete the buzzer turns on again you just last said moscow's radio spot in community nor would the signal used to come from a base outside of the capital but this is what we saw them and this man is the only
12:23 am
living saw we could find on the spot he used to work at the bees and still lives in a village near by. a little bit of this used to be one of the best units in the country but two years ago we received an order to shut it down we were told it consumed too much energy there is also another similar unit it still locker it could be that the legendary buzzer used to be out of this building and we're is the signal coming from now. who won't be able to find any signs of that mysterious transit area here because the equipment was literally ripped out of the walls and floors of the building when the before shut down things are actually still here. with the last entry the ring back to me two thousand and nine. but the sound is still there

12:25 am
viewers the conditions of the third energy package mostly target pipeline gas that's why we think the package is against russia against increasing supplies for my country so we will always maintain a principled position as for the other exporters so just catch our algeria and iran you'll see that the countries consuming gas should not hamper but help producers create an infrastructure to ensure delivers. third energy package will come up at a meeting of the world's leading exporters on tuesday it to kill if that's russia's gas monopoly gas problem which owns its transportation facilities present that it has said the law calls him to the country's energy corporation of europe. let's have a look at the markets now courage is trading near the today and low on speculation that europe will struggle to contain it starts prices are rising some support for prices on expectations perhaps a report by the u.s.
