filenames square in the center of the russian capital this is in case we see a third night of protests here following sunday's parliamentary elections in fun a square was the site of last night's demonstrations by both those for united russia the ruling party and those opposed to the results of sunday's elections and choose day night we saw over five hundred people taken into custody detained by police on their own cheat on wednesday we've also seen a large protest five thousand people from the pro government side these people in support of united russia they held a rally in the center of the russian capital now all this is building up to such a saturday when we're expecting to see the largest demonstration to date. by both sides both those opposed to the vote on sunday and those who are on favor of united russia social networking sites here in the country have been overfilling with

people saying that they will be turning out at revolution square next to the kremlin on saturday about these what about the wider political reactions to what's happening in moscow at the moment well former soviet leader mikhail gorbachev gorbachev said that the results of sunday's election should be an old no he called that vote unfair and accuse the government of not listening to the people we also heard from u.s. secretary of state hillary clinton she was speaking at a meeting of the organization for security and cooperation in europe and she criticized the results of sunday's vote this prompted a stern response from president dmitri medvedev who essentially told the usa secretary of state to mind her own business. well those of us that a conclusion about the sufficiency or insufficiency of parties is an area of responsibility for the russian authorities not for international organizations and

if they monitor the quality of elections and violations that's one thing but the issue of the country's political system is none of their business they will soon be telling us how to write our constitution will go to the constituent. that we've also heard from the israeli foreign minister he said that the international observers sent from his country to watch sunday's poll reported back to him saying that the result of sunday's election was free and transparent so reaction coming from not just here in russia but all over the world regarding sunday's parliamentary elections here in russia. like a piece have many thanks for that update aussies control of the reporting for us from moscow. ok russia's foreign minister sergey lavrov has also a strong back in washington over criticism of the election process here it came to a head out of the russian ballot at a meeting of the organization for security and cooperation in europe to also hear

how these house. foreign minister sergey lavrov had. by using the always seen as a platform to express those grievances referring to the russian elections was a disrespect to the o. a c. simply because that wasn't for him but that wasn't the place for such opinions to be expressed so he did question the intentions of hillary clinton. regrettably some of my colleagues prefer to use this platform to make statements which have nothing to do with. this was exactly the case with hillary clinton who apparently came here for the sole purpose of scoring points with voters in america she left after making her speech and many other ministers last early as well which only underlines the critical condition. but it also made reference to the a protest in moscow comparing that kind of action that. is not a place for rallies like the places in moscow where people came out to voice their grievances and then walk away he also said that if the us would have problems with

the results of the russian elections they should have gone straight to the kremlin so that they would be able to settle it bilaterally instead of bringing it on to an international level another thing he pointed out is the state of the west to see that it is in a messy messy state and that it is weak at this point and he claims that some of the countries deliberately trying to keep it weak so that it's easier to manipulate those are the words of foreign minister sergey lavrov and again he is on his way to brussels for a meeting with a nato a russian nato meeting and of course a sticking point that has been going on for a long time is the issue of the missile defense system the european missile defense system which is of course a facilitated by the u.s. and nato shield that russia has not been satisfied with the response so far russia still has not gotten any legally binding guarantees assuring at the. defense systems are not directed towards russia and the reaction of russia so far has been

to step up its own capabilities and again this is a sticking point it definitely will be discussed on thursday here in brussels. well opposition leaders of russia have alleged there were irregularities in the election but state duma deputy robert schlegel says even if the allegations are true small scale of the violations couldn't have influenced the overall results used to pre-board if we supposed actually in moscow five hundred thousand ballots was stopped for united russia it would mean to seek to do but that's just ridiculous because of course there are some irregularities in some places but it's impossible to falsify twenty to thirty percent of the vote maybe two or three percent is possible the number of irregularities cannot bring into question the results of the delusional countries because they're not very big in counterfeit the final if you will of course be traced will be investigated the hysteria has been surrounding evolution the rallies that we've seen over the internet to the media for being supported by leading foreign t.v. channels operational before anything happens they will already be sitting someone

has been shown to actually make their very biased approach to reporting of a change or used to it that no one has any illusions about media freedom in the west we understand very well they have their own editorial policies they want to show everything and just want to hurt. a lot he's continuing to follow the repercussions of sunday's elections online how you change channel have the latest video of the protests that have been taking place in moscow also you live updates on the situation out there for you on our twitter feed assy on the school and of course on our website so where are all skiing or the new thing about the tests they found that you see it as a warm up and they get protests all that spawns presidential election always the same numbers says the rallies and nothing more than just a few dissatisfied people of faith see it as a sign of a developing civil society and the rest say it's just politicians lobbying for attention do tell us what you think you can just go online to outsell home not to have your say. police have moved in to clear an occupy protest

knew that you know twenty four year old scott olsen was hospitalized with serious head injuries. in seattle the oldest victim of the police turned paramilitary was an eighty four activist temporarily blinded by pepper spray the united states which bills itself as the pillar of international law and democratic free. ams has consistently placed itself on the world stage as the self-appointed beacon of moral authority we call upon the iranian government to abide by the international obligations that it has to respect the rights of its own people instead of respecting the rights of his own people. without the chose the path of brutal suppression. innocent civilians were imprisoned and in some cases beaten meanwhile at home as dissent in america grows louder many say washington's glasshouse of

hypocrisy has shown beautiful symmetry they want people to be able to have freedom of speech but they don't want the freedom to interfere with them in any way to be in any way disruptive to the or challenging to them the line that traditionally separated us soldiers from civilian law enforcement has arguably been overeats placed by what's being dubbed the american militarization of police tock tick tock tick for black major crimes in the foundation of american principles such as democracy and human rights is that only the same principles you ask here you see all other countries about are enough or not are to new york. still to come on the program new expectations from a new government maybe a good cop to clear the streets of hands off the bloody civil war and did we look at the people's hopes for the future and. how times running out for a year is

a need is to save the single currency as they prepare for eleventh hour talks in brussels germany and france are pushing to change the treaties to create a fiscal union and introduce tough tough budget rules however the european council president but he's they can achieve the same goals without altering existing treaties which would need lengthy ratifications the british prime minister warned he wouldn't sign any new home the u.k. . role in the european markets credit ratings giant standard and poor's has added to the sense of urgency as it threatened to downgrade fifteen countries and that bailout fund danish more messerschmitt told r.t. that brussels is taking the reins and propping nations of the. dilemma here is that each time we talk about it leadership from brussels it means that unelected people are to lead to countries unelected people are to tell the voters what to do these governments around that have actually been elected are now under control by the

bureaucrats here from a bus brussels and if that's what we mean by having more leadership i will certainly refrain from that i would certainly say let's go the other way round we have now in europe governments that were elected that have been put under administration by the bureaucrats in brussels that not democracy that's not leadership that's a failure of democracy that's the downfall of the european idea i think it's a shame to see that greece the greeks invented the democracy now they have been the first country to be put under administration because of this failed dream that was the euro so yes we do need leaders that they are bold enough to say the obvious that the euro has failed but that's certainly not going to be the leaders of brussels that's going to be the leaders of the member states of athens of this. read and even of copenhagen at some time when the all avoidable cannot be neglected anymore. leaders are also expected to accelerate the setting up of a new bailout fund to run in parallel with the existing facility u.s.

treasury secretary said he would not be giving extra money to boost the new cash reserves but stressed here is a needs more forms to tackle the crisis but as aussies are good because the not reports the summit coming on thursday and friday may be too late. it's crisis time for the euro with a vital e.u. leaders summit in brussels which could determine the feet of the single currency there has to be a quick and a solid fix of this instability and political conflict on some kind of a common basis between especially france and germany in the next days or weeks or we're going to see a systemic crisis erupted out of this which would be i think to no one's interests yet more problems with u.s. ratings agency standard and poor's downgrade eurozone members states why the markets are now so alarmed is that the market down me also include the e.u.'s two economic powerhouses germany and france there isn't real and see the huge of the

euro zone's ills as fiscal union centralizing economic control over sovereign budgets they blame the crisis on a lack of discipline with some member states breaking budget rules and running up huge deficits but some critics say this is precisely the wrong approach. the members that have become part of the eurozone project are very much different from one another and cannot provide a common homogenous currency space that's what has become so obvious under the present situation now they want to resolve the problem by introducing more centralization centralization is the root cause of the problem. up to know the use rescue strategy has been based on patching up the weakest economy with bailouts which some say is merely a band-aid solution and the wrong medicine for a term in ill patient.

to save the eurozone. trying to rearrange the chairs on a sinking ship the fiscal union queue is no quick fix and also could open up a new minefield as it needs domestic political approval across the e.u. to revise the lisbon treaty the block's effective constitution and rule book london has already warned of a veto if its interests are threatened while hostility towards europe e.u. citizens suffering austerity measures to bail out banks and reckless governments could mean stiff opposition as well as anger at losing domestic control over national budgets yet another obstacle for france and germany they know they have already lost the battle so we are in a prisoner's dilemma the people have taken the wrong decisions from the very beginning. they don't want to admit to the public that they are wrong and that they have been wrong because if they admit this they would have to step down

right away the fate of the euro has occupied the headlines for most of the year but the failure to stem the mounting difficulties puts this summit in a different light the end is nine for good or for bad with most observers saying this crisis is nearing its day of reckoning. r.t. for germany. well the new libyan government has set an end of year deadline for former revolutionaries to clear the capital of the unnecessary presence of armed militia groups and their weapons otherwise say the new leaders tripoli will be locked down the city's been flooded with former rebels ever since they stormed into oust colonel gadhafi in august so that it take his death libyans have been starting to rebuild their lives but it is example we can reports many challenges still lie ahead. after months of waking up to gunfire residents of tripoli now have to get used to a new alarm until the city of two million people has an extensive rooster population

and the birds have all but replaced rifle chatter as the heralds of the new dawn. there was no exchange of gunfire the situation is ok. while the revolutionary rush has spared hardly any wall in tripoli people here are clearly fatigued by eight months of civil war this may be deliberate could leave its very few wanted to break free from the obligations of the old regime on the surface it seems that the normal life in tripoli has been restored the city where many homes didn't have access to face to face lab and few months ago already has its fountains up and running but the new leaf it is still facing the danger of running in wrong this shallow waters of international politics much for its absence remain frozen limiting the government's ability to pay salaries and subsidies it has already become a major part of the revolution the respect we first met muhammad in august on the

frontlines of bani walid one of the final strongholds of the gadhafi regime a former angie nearing student who joined two of his brothers in what he says was a win or die fight for freedom because at the beginning everything was absolutely peaceful there were no guns we want to freedom and fairness but then the dictator used gone far against us and we lost money on rebels three months later mohammad is definitely in the driver's seat revels of the country's new heroes popular with women and the public at large if not with a rifle by his side mohamed would be like a twenty seven year old in any other country cruising around on a saturday night goodness. and it's not like he was under privileged under gadhafi regime he certainly leaves in a three hundred square me. their house in the prestigious area of tripoli they say the revolution has brought them along the way to democracy but is yet to translate

into concrete benefits we have free education on health care on the gadhafi of course we expected to remain free but it also needs to be improved the new authorities also have to decrease prices and raise salaries so that ordinary people can join all the benefits of the revolution. here exactly how the new government can afford to do so in a country a ruling by war and stripped of much of its budgetary income is every bit as good as the forty two years of got his rule had taught libyans to rely on government for just about everything and the level of expectations in the new york storage is is very high is that the i have big plans for my life in a year are sold god willing i want to finish my education get a good job and save enough money to mari it's all become possible for us now. and in national economist i'm not being i think the fact that they were willing to destabilize a regime that had demonstrably one of the highest living standards in north africa

goes to show the fact that they were not so interested in what benefited the people as a whole and in the first place they were more interested in forming their their economic ties to do american oil companies yet for the moment the future seems bright not least because it's also very blurred actually what you are to tripoli. if you get to visit our website for more stories an in-depth analysis here's a look at what you can find right now at all dot com how the search path like products is finally paying for it is not so claims it's found all the world simply six hundred light years away. and is beginning to feel other dogs like christmas crowd are founders of did steps laser the skis and snowboards they get this thing is called spirits in the u.s. find out more on the dot com. and now let's hope it's not some other world news this hour a roadside bomb attack in southern afghanistan has killed nineteen civilians and

dollars in its part and its cost to partners russia's transnet says construction could still go ahead but will require new negotiations. meanwhile crude prices are coming down as investors are staying on the sidelines looking out what to expect from friday's in the first days at lights with his declining thirty seven cents brant is down half a dollar per barrel in the us this optimism which is fading on the outcome of the e.u. summit is also taking its toll on financials however are higher with bank of america up one percent but industrials are dragging on the dow with caterpillar two percent lower. and same feeling over in europe with the footsie down of three quarters of a percent the dax one point three percent that's despite the financial times reporting that european officials are in talks to potentially double the firepower of the euro zone bailout. and this is the closing picture in russia after tuesday's steep decline we're seeing a continuation of losses although not

a bad accent the obvious is down one point two percent m i six point six percent take a look at what's been moving the my sax namely energy stocks the lukoil and gas problem are down better than the market point four percent on a declining poil price and the fertilizer maker good old carly was one of the few gainers during the day but at the end of last point nine percent as a reporter. revenues reaching three point two billion dollars in the first nine months of the year here's mark rubenstein from symmetry. today's a mixed day and they're furious as for that yes they were stores significant correction in the market and which was caused partly by their increase of the political risks as the season generally has to send out a par with some profit taking which followed the very strong performance during the previous week so today again we tried to go higher this morning and then the sellers came in they were basically sort of a going flat today but i think there is

a significant chance that the market could move with a reminder of this week on the expectations of their successful european union summit that is starting tomorrow the privatization program in russia could get off to a rapid start next year in the most of the country's biggest bank says it will be ready to go to the market as soon as the global financial situation stabilizes graph is also beats about the bank's prospects and twenty twelve saying it will be difficult for the sector in old but his firm will be outperforming the market. however the world economy develops the next year will not be very easy for us so we call our business plan moderately optimistic so according to a top critical for you should grow to about twenty percent that's better than the market which we expect to grow to around twenty years and although we also are ready for a more pessimistic scenario with the situation in europe worsens and the oil price

falls to between sixty and seventy dollars per barrel. investors in the high tech shares could get tax benefits in russia the economic ministry has prepared a drop bill to exempt them from income tax the benefits will apply to long term investors buying into small and medium sized russian firms which are valued no greater than three hundred twenty million dollars tax holidays are part of the government's plan to spur investment into innovative companies so bad lives are next without.
