mass disclosure of secret information coming out of us in history and it's going to be broadcast it's nice to be on o t it's going to focus on his favorite topic which of course is control of a c he's going to be talking through the series to ten what he calls iconoclasts vision and how it is basically going to be doing is discussing issues old today with people he says will shape what looks like essentially he's going to be challenging them on his ideas for how to secure a brighter future. paying over say we are going to be broadcasting this series of programs exclusively here an hour to me and we're hoping that he is going to be as exclusive as those wiki leaks releases and of course everybody is asking themselves whether that's going to happen and it's going to be filmed in the location where us has been subjected to bail conditions for the last one hundred fourteen days without any charges having been leveled against him severally it could be

a very explosive charge lower we're already seeing a reaction out of almost every single news all around the world huge response to this announcement here on our three other program there would still weeks away from going on a. that's right hundreds of articles have been written prior to the announcement that it would be broadcast on archly and generously it's an issue that is very big on twitter at the moment as well we knew already on choose day that it was going to make the show but we're only able to reveal today wednesday that he is going to be broadcasting it on our t.v. and in fact of course i mean as himself as that is a huge name and just the timing of the filming of this series is quite significant in that the first episode it's going to be short just a week before he goes to the supreme court here in london in order to fight his own going extradition request to sweden for questioning on the alleged sexual assault

charges that's a case that's been going on for over a year now he says he's going to be delivering a new type of television of course he's no stranger to the camera i've interviewed him myself and he's done a lot of interviews through the course of these extradition hearing and also about the wiki leaks leaks and he says he's essentially very well placed to do a program like this because he calls himself a pioneer of a more just world and a victim of political repression himself so hundreds of articles it's very much in the on twitter as well we can't reveal the details on the guests they have to remain a secret for now but we will be having exclusive trailers and previews here not to say watch this space indeed are looking forward to it all to you laura smith there live in london thank you. news executive i need. help with the sonics to secure this program we've been talking about here is that our new host is full of fresh ideas. there were quite interesting discussions we said in our office after

christmas sharing ideas about the show's possibilities and obviously it would be the only channels we right now to get our silence but i think it's quite natural that the show will be on our t.v. i mean artie always tries to go beyond that to see other sides of any new story and show all the real reasons behind the news that you would see on the mainstream channels when we talk to julian was very calm and relaxed which you would expect of course from someone who's been under house arrest for more than four hundred days he was very full of ideas and some of them were born as we talked so i think this will be a very hard hitting show that he is coming to life in the heart of moscow to other news now as the u.s. presidential race picks up pace to head of november's vote barack obama is trying to ratchet up support for reelection he delivered his annual state of the union address making new promises of change your head he's a guy if you can was listening. his goal was to highlight his achievements and lay

out new promises as far as the message policies he speech was full of heartfelt success stories about the economy and jobs creation but there is a lot of skepticism among americans social inequality in america is now at a level unseen since the great depression the top one percent of the wealthiest in the country are making a killing while the middle class is shrinking dramatically and that is getting wider american jobs are being outsourced to other countries president obama's state of the union speech sounded motivational full of good intentions but the fact that almost all his major economic initiatives got bogged down in congress like the jobs act that he put forward last year is giving a sense to many that he might be saying all the right words but they may not be necessarily followed by demons on the foreign policy front he ran on promises to end wars but while he pulled troops out of iraq and started winding down the war in

afghanistan with a pledge to bring all troops home by two thousand and fourteen america's wars didn't stop president obama bombed levy last year to the tune of bringing about democracy also the u.s. may now be on the verge of an all out confrontation with iraq and in the speech he once again said all options are on the table washington is now actively building up its military presence in the persian gulf region new u.s. drone bases are popping up in the arabian peninsula so we see that while president obama went through with the promises to scale back on iraq and afghanistan he's been actively building up a platform for possibly new wars president obama certainly prides himself on his role in killing osama bin laden and a number of other terrorists but the means by which the u.s. is going about the task of chasing down terrorists raises a lot of red flags so some experts argue that what washington is doing is fighting terror and provoking terror at the same time but in president obama's presentation everything sounds just great on the war on terror front. now he's got

a nature kind of putting time when our president obama reiterated his commitment to cutting down on military spending and trimming beyond forces by u.s. professor paul shelton foote says that his pledges at all with washington's foreign policy goals he used the cute little code phrase that we're going to have an enduring relationship with death in a stand which means we're going to have bases in that country and stay there for ever whether they want to serve. likewise he said we kill gadhafi syria's next day and if iran doesn't behave they're there after that so. it is totally contradictory to say that he's going to be able to pay down the american debt in expand government spending programs domestically with savings from bringing soldiers home from orders what in fact he has plans to expand while he didn't mention china by name he also said that we have a pacific strategy and the world will know that we are number one.

and that was a thinly veiled threat against china even i mean how insane can you be china's holding more than a trillion dollars of our debt we've got tens of thousands of factories there we're highly coordinated doing depended on them though and he's threatening them to. it's good to have you with us you're watching r.t. live from moscow it's now ten minutes past the hour still to come in the program a meeting of monetary minds the business and banking elite descend on davos for the world economic forum to find out how much focus will fall on the reforming the global financial system. plus searching for a fair salary why a legal loophole in india has left many without permanent jobs or a stable income. thousands of egyptians are gathering in cairo's to rear square marking a year since the uprising that toppled president mubarak but it's not

a celebration they're still angry at the slow pace of reforms it's also a landmark day in the country is almost thirty years of emergency rule is being partially lifted although some key of police powers will remain ending the draconian law has been one of the protesters key demands but there are still many for whom it's just not enough they won't rest until the army steps down as artie's maria phenomena reports from cairo. a year after its historic revolution in egypt is far from calm protests have become a part of everyday life and no longer an event one of the revolutions and significant achievements i. could never believe would come out and speak out like this there are several reasons for egypt's people to take out to the streets following the uprising that ousted mubarak last february the country's economy is struggling unemployment is at its highest in decades and while the newly elected

islam is dominated parliament debate the country's future resentment rose against military rule and the feeling they hijacked the revolution this ability we want them to do what military should do to protect its citizens and not rule the country . in want to be sure that there will not destroy our solutions achievements they betrayed us the military dominated egypt's politics since the fall of the monarchy sixty years ago some skeptics say the twenty eleven revolution did little to change this trend. where mubarak toppled down people welcome to the supreme council of the armed forces to lead the transition but the initial euphoria began to fade when the military council was still in place six months later after one bloody crackdown on peaceful protesters after another claiming at least eighteen lives as

a toper there isn't any doubt left here scaf should go i believe that they're there i mean i live i believe that we don't want them anywhere here in this chair that's what i believe in the words and that's what most of what all i you know believe and we will work in whatever happens as these are works with and discard are scared because the boom in arabic for army lawyers campaign they worked through really armies wrongdoings beats you know female activists attack. in field hospitals and conspiracy theories under the military council twelve thousand people have been brought to build two trials that's against less than two thousand in the dark thirty years claim it's leave when the new president is elected to do but few believe the promises that once were broken so easily some also fear that the dangerous may stay all behind the scenes reluctance to relinquish their power they've had for decades with protests pushing them to leave one thing is clear the

fight is not yet over. r t cairo. well egypt now has a newly elected parliament with the muslim brotherhood holding the majority of seats of the army has pledged to give up power when a new president is sworn in with an election expected to be held now that will be in june now across the program here on r.t. that is coming your way next hour people of elena's guests will be debating the country's future for now a quick preview for you. if the united states wants to ingratiate themselves with the egyptian people what they've got to do is we've got to offer humanitarian aid we've got to offer loans. and services to the egyptian people and not so much you know cut the government no but i mean george you think it's on their side and we wish nothing but the best for you know but well i don't i think most egyptians don't believe that ok after thirty years it's hard for them to believe that the last twelve months hasn't changed and i think that's why we've got

a lot of work to do here a lot of you believe what are these ruin tensions if you just leave egypt alone completely and let them decide for themselves let them decide their own foreign policy if they want to tear up the peace treaty with israel. i mean if you're saying there is an object ourselves which should be there is politics but there's a lot of humanitarian relief that we can help and that's the kind of work we should be doing. now quarter past the hour here in moscow there is confusion over events in the libyan town of bani walid after moammar gadhafi loyalists seized the city on monday i reports of five people killed up to twenty five injured in clashes with government forces but libya's interior minister says it's not clear who actually controls the city and claims the clashes erupted due to internal disagreements between rival militias meanwhile elders in the town say they'll appoint their own local representatives and reject any interference from the interim authorities fighters for the national

transitional council have now set up checkpoints outside bani walid it comes as the n.c.c. has been struggling to unify its armed forces violent protests in several cities across the country prompted at the council's chairman to warn of a possible civil war journalist simon ourself says many libyans feel they're just not getting what they fought so hard for. the thing about revolutions is they're not simply passive events there is a whole awakening of the population in the middle east but also in libya and people saying well this is not what we have not rising for and the victims themselves you know the victims the new victims the old supporters of the old regime saying well you talk about democracy where is our inclusion in this so you get the sense there is this fracturing the new electoral law is very. going to put it has made people very very unhappy it seems there is a reintroduction of tribalism and touching his networks and so on and so you know. that there is a lot of disquiet in every corner of libya at the moment it's

a truism that there's no such thing as a clean war and civil wars are the most brutal. and so you you can imagine. nato but i don't need to imagine nato really pushed the envelope and they broke the resolution they were there to defend civilians that was the mandate and they were they essentially became the rebel rebels air force and so they were attacking in the the or you know almost total annihilation of very messy very brutal and i think there's quite a lot of acts of revenge taking place as well. well we do have plenty more news and stories for you on our website of course r t dot com let's have a quick look now of what you can find there while america defends itself against cyber terror one former spy chief says the country's actually responsible for waging web attacks on other regions and find out all the details online also trading a real gold for black gold iran will reportedly bypass the latest round of western

sanctions by accepting the precious metal as payment for its oil exports the full story standing by for you at r.t. dot com. artie's coming to you live from moscow where the so-called one percent the global business elite have now descended on davos switzerland to seal lucrative deals and search for the salvation of capitalism and that means it's time for the world economic forum that kicks off today perhaps unsurprisingly though the ninety nine percent who have been worst hit by the financial crisis have been locked out and left to look in from the outside party's long list of reports. all right i'm here i've made it to davos i'm at the world economic forum my first time i'm not alone

though turns out morgan stanley's c.e.o. says first time which shows the caliber of the people that are here ok these are much of the corporate elite much of the global elite when it comes to wealth power all of that so they're all gathered here the question is what is davos man got on his agenda this year now of course the unofficial business is what davos is really become known for in many respects that's what you hear about that makes it worth all of the money that some of these corporations shell out to be here it's the networking and the deals that are done in private parties. you know off the record in hallways in lobbies so this is where a lot of the global one percent or some of them at least a presumably are doing business according to past reports ironically on the actual official agenda this year is the big topic of capitalism and if it is for ambling what its future is and what the solutions to its problems are so schwab the founder of the world economic forum has said that we can't think of this is business as

usual anymore that capitalism in its current form has no place in the world around us talking about much of the of the discontent we've seen over in quality that we've seen with the occupy wall street movement which is on the agenda when some of these sessions are talking about remodelling capitalism occupy is one of the things that they're talking about interesting lee though none of those activists are invited to the forum to have that discussion but they are here really highlighting the difference separating everybody else from the elites that are meeting here they have the igloo and can't mint which many people are talking about but they're very much here now as far as what exactly is going to go on i'll do my best to show you that the more i'm looking at these reports of what the press is going to be able to do it looks like i'm not going to be able to see a film or go a lot of the places that i would want to go except for maybe in thirty minute increments what's a day hopefully as supported by someone from the world. economic forum for me to lock down some of these. business leaders and heads of state and central bankers

exactly what they're talking about these sessions if i may not be pretty but that is what i'm going to try and do i'm going to do my best for you all of us and i will be your intrepid reporter until they. are these loyalists are right when i while the business heavyweights are meeting in switzerland to to do perhaps discuss ways to patch up the global economy the emerging markets are continuing to make their mark but more of that now from our business desk is career. market watchers claim that this year is likely to be volatile but emerging markets look appealing when it comes to fundamentals which remain strong in the bric countries join me for more on that and other stories in our business. before we go to the business so let's get to the all to world thought but here's some other international headlines in brief russia and turkey have a reaffirmed their position opposition to military intervention in syria this coming during the turkish foreign minister's visit right here to moscow for the

statement came after syria agreed to extend the arab league observers mission by a month it was set up to monitor the regime's compliance with the league's plan to end the violence there on tuesday sixty were reportedly killed in protests across syria the u.n. estimating that the number killed in the past ten months is that over five thousand . nigerian forces have arrested scores of suspected members of an islamist group during raids in the northern city of condo the backcourt sector said it carried out a series of bombings in the city on friday and which at least one hundred eighty five people died the group is considered the most violent radical organization in nigeria sponsible for nearly a thousand deaths last year. rescue teams are searching for seventeen people still unaccounted for in the cruise liner which. just off the italian coast new footage in most showing images of floating debris inside the

vessel the divers filmed the interior of the ship after using explosives to blast into more areas sixteen bodies have been recovered since the ship ran aground and now that is twelve days ago. india's labor laws promise a full time set of workers a range of benefits from decent wages to paid holidays but those from the countries of poverty stricken regions and always so lucky employers have found a legal loophole leaving many workers exploited through the fear of losing their job any moment. now this story. it's got one of the fastest growing populations in the world and getting india's eager young workforce into skilled jobs is no mean feat business tycoon many shopper well thinks he has the answer a temp agency that trains and then touts its labor jobs you know the idea was that existed all over the world temporary stuffing so it would but do you know what we've heard somebody of the five minutes for the last five years filling posts and

bringing home a paycheck it sounds like a perfect match but for indian firms there are extra more dubious benefits india's tough labor laws make it hard to fire workers plus permanent staff get decent hours holidays and a living wage none of which apply to hiring temps it's a cost cutting gifts keeping employers smiling all the way to the bank india has always been a famous destination for foreign companies to outsource their work at a cheap cost but a growing trend here is for indian companies themselves to outsource their work force to agencies like instead of hiring workers for themselves everywhere from malls to restaurants in india are using agencies to hire and manage their workers for the shopper who insists his workers do benefit vital training they are unlikely to get in india as many poverty stricken regions in the woman because the people who follow me over. we really cannot afford a very expensive education it's going to be for people who have those skills but

don't know where to go they don't have been grooming them because some pantry agrees she's in rolled in one of the many nationwide team lease training centers to improve her english skills and enroll in a computer accounting course to make her stand out from the crowd to potential employers may have begun with your coffee i was very worried to nervous about sitting for a job interview i'm not fluent in english so i wanted teachers speak in english get motivated and gain some confidence that i was going but critics say jobs people like them end up in should be higher paid employment and because the agency keeps the jobless figures down many believe it's blighting india avoid tackling its labor law me which lets firms get away with dire wages and sacking staff on a whim but shovel insists the priority for those on his roster is putting bread on the table and that is really where we came in and said that look a job is better than no job and employers were not hiring people because they were scared of him because we were laws we were saying look there are lots of kids who

actually are not trying to move off employers they use the law as a weapon in their hands to he didn't blow it was there just war and an opportunity to get a job pre-history there are t. new delhi india. koreans had actually with the business news you're watching out. her welcome to a business update this as we've been reporting the world's biggest economic forum is getting underway in the swiss resort of devils germany's chancellor and america will open the meeting of over two and a half thousand business leaders and politicians later on wednesday one of the key topics this year is shaping capitalism. when you see the compensation gaps that exist the unemployment levels that exist whole generations of employees potential employees that don't have jobs today the youth in different parts of the world yeah there are some fundamental issues that have to be looked at and quite frankly if we don't start with ourselves to understand our role from

a business standpoint in dealing with these issues i don't know how they're going to be solved i mean to me this is a classic example of how it's a complex issue it clearly requires collaboration between the business community between governments and key policy makers and if that degree of collaboration doesn't exist it's pretty hard to see how these problems are going to be solved for the long term. meanwhile market watchers claim this year is likely to be volatile for investors but emerging markets look appealing certainly when it comes to fundamentals which remain strong among the bric economies their risk aversion though comes from the eurozone crisis which is fueling a global recession josh got from russian telecoms major m.t.s. believes that the emerging markets are the only place to go for those wanting to capitalize on growth. it's sometimes a challenge given the volatility that we see in global economies to get people into the emerging markets however for the medium and long term we feel the restaurateurs

need to look towards emerging markets because this is going to be the most natural place for growth in the world russia has what everybody needs resources to some degree intellectual capital and we feel that we're in a good position to capitalize on the long term. let's have a look at the markets now all falls below ninety nine dollars a barrel it raising earlier gains up to australia says it will join us in boycotting it this is being offset by rising u.s. crude european stock markets slide into the reds way down sharply falling profit by falling profits at ericsson and novartis banks are also under pressure ahead of bond sales in germany and italy here in russia markets are high and the afternoon the r.t.s. is up one point two percent the mars express is over a half a percent in the black as well banking and energy stocks among the main gate is let's have a look now at the markets movers on the my six banking stocks are rallying on
