that's the thing. that drowns out our inner world. the story of one man who returns whom after years of alienation. right. on. what's go warns it will pull out of the start treaty and stop nuclear disarmament if the u.s. continues to deploy its missile defense shield in europe. and the response to the russian skandia missile hours deployed on its borders from east to west i'll have more details from the kremlin in just a moment. thousands vent their anger at egypt's military rulers with protest as they go to the heart of car on tahrir square saying all these concessions are not enough. protests to say be happy handedness of the army reminds them of the dark days of what's mean nobody more from egypt in just a few moments. the euro is in mortal danger of brussels warns tougher economic

governance is the only way out of the crisis of moneybag germany says every country should look after themselves. and business foreign direct investment on the rise but analysts say russia still remains one of the least attractive investment destinations among developing economies joining for a full business bulletin i think in an. international news a comment live from moscow twenty four hours a day russia may pull out of the start treaty and stop nuclear disarmament if the u.s. continues to deploy its missile defense shield in europe present a video of said moscow could also deployed zone strike systems like it's going to missiles on its own borders in response. explains. it's

a very harsh and direct words from president makes may differ on the development of clowns for the u.s. nato and their eastern european allies to build and develop that missile defense shield in eastern europe just outside russia's border he pointed out five steps that the russian federation would take if nato the u.s. and its allies don't reconsider first off early warning systems will be immediately activated including grad which is russia's most western enclave just outside just across the border i should say from the plans for that missile defense shield also the country's strategic nuclear forces will be strengthened significantly the president said the baddies to happen urgently to quote him our strategic missiles will be fitted with advanced missile defense penetration systems so that means the latest generation warheads and also the armed forces has been notified that it needs to create a system that would be able to destroy by data exchange and the control systems of that missile defense shield in eastern europe like i said once again it can't be

stressed not just outside of russia's border if all of those steps aren't enough for nato and its allies to reconsider this would be russia's last resort. just each other measures are insufficient russia will deploy a contemporary strike systems in the west themselves in order to prevent further damage from us missile systems including. the deployment of the it's going to missile system. that will be one such step if the situation develops in an unfavorable way russia will reserve the right to seize further steps a new enemy additional moment and arms control over the electrical link between strategic offensive and defensive weapons reasons could emerge from russia's withdrawal from the strategic arms reduction treaty this is a vision we didn't content of the treaty it has to be pointed out that president medvedev once again stressed that it's not too late that russia does believe that dialogue can help to reach some kind of agreement that satisfy. both sides in terms

of missile defense because start treaty the latest one of course signed it april twenty ten held as a tremendous step in the reset so fashionable word to withdraw from the treaty would be a huge step back in terms of russia u.s. relations president medvedev once again said that today that we need a legally binding guarantees that those systems are not positions against not so they're practically surrounded from europe down to the middle east and the upper class if there is to seaboard in the pacific in terms of bases in japan and south korea russia saying that they need more guarantees than just the u.s. and its allies saying you just have to trust us it was a great step in terms of relations but obviously not clear enough because there's not enough binding agreement between the two countries that those systems will not be directed against each other so russia and the west very much moving in different directions russia feels that if the u.s. and nato can't meet i side with them they have every right to create their own system and protect their national interests. and you sir are you there world we're

just getting some news in here that washington has indeed responded now is saying that it is not going to review its plans for a missile defense shield in europe so says the spokesman of the u.s. national security council tommy vietor and this comes in response to the warning that it will pull out of the start treaty and stop nuclear disarmament if the u.s. continues to deploy its missile defense shield in europe well of course we're bringing you country of reaction and comment on this developing story between washington and moscow just to reiterate washington is saying it is not going to review its plans for that proposed missile defense shield in europe let's get more on this from an isolated she's from the nuclear age peace foundation joining us live now from new york. before we begin which is going to get a perspective here by an illustration which i will not show you on the screen here we have the five countries involved at the moment with this proposed plan. we can

see that they are very very close and the russians are russia's border covering the western side of russia the likes of the czech republic remain a dog area and turkey. no what i want to ask you is there is clearly a perceived threat coming from the east this is the whole argument behind this anti missile defense system for europe this threat coming from so-called rogue states like iran and north korea it is a justified argument is it not. i don't think it's justified i think it's being driven by the the military industrial complex in the united states getting billions of dollars in contracts to build these missiles the irony is that we have professes like at mit ted post still on or at military people that say it could never actually work and other words it really wouldn't protect the u.s. against any kind of. incoming missiles because it's so easy to use decoys

and you could never guarantee that you could screen them all ad so this is like ohio total waste of money it gives no protection and yet it is threatening to russia's strategic forces i mean we had the i.b.m. tree the a.b.m. treaty and one nine hundred seventy two the anti-ballistic missile treaty we had both countries promise not to build these missile systems because they realized that they were in this burgeoning arms race at that time we had seventy thousand nuclear weapons on the planet i mean we're down to a mere twenty one pharaoh's the now and twenty thousand of them are still in the u.s. and russia well this is very dangerous very interesting you say this is very interesting hearing tough talk from moscow reaction from washington so it was not going to review its plans for a missile defense shield in europe now does this mean we are heading for another

cold war style arms race. well i hope somebody else has some good sense because basically the us is a crumbling empire i mean where in debt we can't find our roads our roads are like broken down our trains don't compare to all of the violence that you see. germany or japan where really we we've wasted our national treasure i'm this military and it's almost like we have to have a total shift into the twenty first century we can't war is not the answer and there are so many problems we have to do it on the planet so hopefully this is like a wake up call. just briefly your new york from the nuclear age peace foundation there is talk from moscow putting out of the start treaty this is something much more wanted by many saying this treaty symbolically meant nonproliferation globally this had

a positive impact around the world not of katrina moscow and washington what are your fears no if that start treaty isn't the disbanding. well the triad start treaty was just a very modest downpayment on what should be the end of nuclear weapons we should be negotiating a nuclear weapons convention ban ki moon has spoken about it we have a model nuclear weapons convention that's an official un's argument there's a whole question within the grassroots movement to get rid of the nuclear weapon start was just cutting down to fifteen hundred i mean there's only a pass a nuclear weapons and all the other seventy weapons frankly and the u.s. and russia are sitting on these you know tend to. be also on us yes it's so i must ask you quickly a bomber of course has pledged that he wants to see a nuclear weapon free world but no here we have. washington being intransigent moscow is just to to say look we will like to do

a joint missile defense project with you and also we'd like you to legally blind yourself to the fact that we will never be threatened by the system from half of the u.s. now surely that is where the u.s. is not being corporate with moscow it doesn't seem to make sense we want bomb it wants in the long term does it. no it doesn't and when obama said he wants a nuclear weapons free world he said it might not be in my lifetime so we doubted his sincerity even then but there is a huge movement within the united states even with this new deficit they want to cut the military big time and i think that's going to have to cut their missile program also in other words then so can overtake them and of course it's an election year and they're trying to out all the you know like who can be tough and this is the what they think sells and yet i think that's changing i hope it's changing because we certainly can't be back into

a cold war nuclear confrontation again that would be terrible and slater thank you so much for your time and slater from the nuclear age peace foundation there in new york. thousands of egyptians are refusing to leave tahrir square saying they're not satisfied with concessions being offered by the military council the army says a presidential election will be held by next summer but people want the most let's get more from what is paula she isn't cowrote. to receive the same level of violence as we have in previous days now over. find in syria increased dramatically and most of the wind insisting to know i'm a hundred what street distance behind me the protests the white police and army have in mind in one place and there have been the ira was the this might be nice to use the night and this and for some time now we've been hearing.

that time is where most people like dying are dying. and me. no one knows exactly where there has been here can't find the answer and no one stop it would be you know with continued efforts we can smell a very different type of. i guess it was used back in february it creates this an usual burning sensation and when i can stories that some of the protesters have impelled large amounts that are still coughing up blood some ten to fifteen hours later there are fires that have broken out and for the first time the army and the police up close and it is appealing to the main part of happiness with the crowd in the final push backwards as the the final scene of the confrontation in the streets leading to pretend to spiral into the square itself now we all sit here in the pool . and division between the rifle use an army fucking understand people saying that

it's a wife who will find that a casket is the wife of these who are firing of the rubber bullets i witness a saying if the army that is trying to actually be a strain and see some kind of karma some kind of order but those reports are not going to make any difference to people here in town is where people are incredibly angry the mood is very volatile and certain tensions are running high but will in any way those protestors be appeased by what we've heard recently those concessions offered by the the military government to speed up the transition of power and indeed to possibly hold a referendum is there anything that will make the protesters go home. for the concessions the region talking about actually when nance this time last night and within those twenty two hours we've actually seen the response from the security forces intensified so that's only going to add fuel to the argument from the protestors that they simply cannot believe that what the army is promising to make or not believe that the army plans to hand over control of the famines and. pulling

the strings as i said before even move here is incredibly angry if anything the fine and it's only in forcing the will of the people to stand firm on the school principal tasters favorite the city status which initially started in february is far from over but that this time they came. what i do not know how do you. feel sorry for you knowing what you read your own free government that's. why dictates on how to take a job. or not it seems dramatic developments than car i point to sneer at the heart of it thank you very much indeed for that live report. when egyptians say nothing has changed since president barack was toppled that's why the alfa on the streets again but author f. william angle has told me that he suspects washington is pulling the strings in the second wave of the egyptian revolution and the question is who is.

organizing behind the scenes that these demonstrations in tahrir square take place again and the muslim brotherhood comes in the largest organized political force in egypt. as well as the participants in the earlier twitter revolution that can really really spring so and the rule of washington has has been very curious in all this so one suspects that there is a deeper agenda going on here and the pentagon is not all that upset with the pressure being put on the military it's bringing the whole process into a second wave of course normal egyptians and i know many normal egyptians who are deeply want to have a democratic country and are sick and tired of the creator ships from the military that's understandable but. this question of democracy is not a process that you know comes from from street revolutions in the course of history there's not one example i can think of where it has. well we've been asking you how

the west should react to the bloodshed in egypt looking on screen see the majority think that the stony silence is the best answer only a quarter believe that nato allies must impose a no fly zone and get involved in a bombing campaign around a fifth of the west should react to tough sanctions and threats of action and the same number of people think we have and should be condemned where you have your say on our website it's r.t. dot com. but the struggle to save the eurozone continues the technocrats are pitted against germany chancellor angela merkel once again rejecting the idea of collective boring for the region called believes that individual governments need to tighten their belts and to arcelor reports the highest paid decision makers in brussels are less than willing to take a cut in their own pay for a common good. this is become a familiar sight the streets of europe symptomatic of the euro crisis and now it seems the tide of discontent is rising within the plush halls of the vast european

commission bureaucracy. staff unions are threatening to go on strike after rejecting a proposal by the commission or the e.u. civil service to save one billion euros over seven years by reducing pensions increasing working hours from thirty seven point five to forty a week raising the retirement age limiting pay rises and cutting five percent of jobs but you know they get a one point eight three rise. and they say it's a union representing lower paid staff says the media tends to lump them with the fat cats who get most of the e.u. gravy train he wants the highest salaries of those at the top to be slashed instead the commissioners have privileges which the normal stopped in time they do not contribute to their pensions we pay eleven point six percent and they do not contribute anything but some politicians are astonished at the notion of a strike by officials they claim are featherbed while ordinary workers are losing

their jobs and face hardship they get excellent health care free education for their children to private schools here wonderful pension deal and you wonder people listening to this at home looking or. perhaps earning working ten hours a day these guys are grumbling because they're being asked to work eight hours a day while they're perfectly within their rights to contest the proposed changes to their working conditions were raises eyebrows is the fact that they're complaining at a time when millions of new citizens are bearing the brunt of harsh but steady measures imposed by the very same institutions they work for not to mention the twenty three million who don't even have jobs to speak of to remove one or two perks to suggest that perhaps they take a slightly. percentage increase it's hardly going to break the world to what i'm still union members are adamant they're getting the short end of the stick. you know putting everything on the shoulders of the secretaries we think. the salary

cap is much too high and we would like to close that. many of us would be ready to pay for it but whether european taxpayer share the same willingness to sustain the benefits of their civil servants in brussels at a time when they themselves are forced to accept a steady measures is another question to answer cilia archie brussels. over the euro's future sounding in the heart of europe the european commission president has warned that the single currency could collapse and that governments are more economically integrated also fears that germany has been dragged into the crisis and then went through its worst bond auction ever financial analyst max kaiser has just told me that burning is now only concerned with saving itself. germany is on principle against buying up the e.c.b. bonds are monetizing e.c.v. bonds but the bundesbank was buying up the blue and bonds so it's ok for germany

but it's not ok for the eurozone and this is just opening up all the antagonisms between all these european countries they are always opposed to restore peace and harmony and in the eurozone but they're breaking down along. country by country divisiveness and once again and this can't end the good because these countries let's not forget have spent hundreds of years at each other's throats now we're back at it you have to understand this is a systemic problem that requires a totally architecting of the system and a total execution in one way or another all these baxters that are just predatory leeches i cancer on the system they add no value they simply make things worse so they can profit from the chaos think of in terms of this recent offering of groupon which was unknown and notorious ponzi scheme they took a public for eighteen billion now it's crashed through the i.p.o. price trading for many billions of dollars less but for a brief shining moment it looked good so this is what they're trying to do in the

eurozone they're trying to refloat trillions of debt and say it's a brand new day and look great for maybe twenty minutes but then we'll be back to exactly where we were where we started which is a massive debt the leveraging sovereignty being lost amongst all these euro zone countries and predatory i.m.f. bankers on the loose room bankers looking to do stabilize countries for a quick buck. max keiser talking to be a little earlier there from paris and a glimmer of hope in space as a last ditch attempt to contact russia's failing interplanetary probe ferber's grant has succeeded the spacecraft created to explore the surface of one of mars is such a technical article from two weeks ago when the thrusters failed the earth's orbit leaving it stranded and all communication with it with lots of tuesday night the european space agency said it would make one last try and resisted a radio signal coming from a focus group an optimism is still cautious that it was russia and european it's

be paired with a summary of our main developments in just about six minutes from now in the meantime cream is next with the latest business updates. it's twenty three past ten pm here in moscow welcome to our business out there with me kareen welcome thanks for watching foreign direct investment in russia is up forty percent in the year through september at twelve billion dollars and however most of the pond still come from cyprus where many big domestic brands are registered the emerging markets private equity association says russia remains one of the least attractive investment destinations among developing countries but the head of russia's newly created direct investment fund is optimistic this will soon change to me speaking exclusively to our team through weekly of highlights the sectors to. come or that is definitely going to be interesting but also there is major interest invest in infrastructure and to invest in sectors a benefit from the growth of the russian middle class there is massive grows in the

with that but given that you look at what's going on in the world today in europe with even the u.s. we deplore the still mates having some degree of political stability could be considered a positive for us it's a little. bit of a look at the markets now financial worries in europe bene's slow growth in china sent oil prices down because well as much as two point seven percent up in germany failed to buy buyers for thirty prophesied of bonds at auction is trading at over ninety five and a half dollars a barrel brant is that one hundred and seven dollars a barrel the u.s. stocks long peds europe's debt crisis appears to spread markets are weighed by weak chinese manufacturing report among other things investors are focusing on the negative aspects of several mixed u.s. economic reports as well and here is europe where markets drop this disappointing german bond auction one that the government was able to sell only two thirds of a six billion euro auction analysts say this is the worst result in recent memory and suggest investors now see higher risks even for the safest the euro zone's
