in about twenty minutes time. broadcasting live from moscow this is our team welcome to the program. iran is facing a further isolation as the world's biggest electronic banking system swift prepares to cut off thousands of financial firms blacklisted by the e.u. it's part of a broader effort by european nations also plan to impose an embargo on a rainy and oil summit to pressure iran over its nuclear program sara first mehra ports the measures like a ricochet back. spain is among the biggest importers raney and oil. sayings when the sanctions come into force in july spain hasn't tell them.

of crude supply but the ban on iran's placing a real risk to the country that until now has been fueled by iranian oil. prices are on the rise and there are fears that there are. even higher with the iranian oil invoke a looming the e.u. in piece band comes as the west's been making waves if you are runs nuclear program it's getting around we'll revenues bring the country to the bargaining table even assuming that the case against iran is a strong sanctions right now and exercised by countries like spain or greece or italy that much those countries more than it will damage was countries like france and britain and who thingy a very small percentage of iranian oil and supported the band is the country struggling the west economically right now spain greece and italy but again to feel the effects of the sanctions the most because we can't refuse to pressure the u.s.

because she's still foreign minister actually said if you're sick you check if you're sick or seek to seek damages even if you assume you could hear about the fact that we can't be forced to make the decision once you get in a healthy economic situation a rise in oil prices might be problematic coming at a time when spain is on the brink of a second recession is proving a nightmare for the population and it's terrible that we should pay for decisions taken in brussels is not known for but certainly not for simple reasons. should trigger a rise in prices we should. keep the issue of nuclear weapons. launch to revive our economy. of course i'm afraid because they're already too high you know if they go any higher we'll be able to afford again. a chance to calm fears about rising prices have been made to radiate it's good enough oil to make up for

the loss of around supply when the comes into fools because she's like saying we'll still be paying the price of love trade with iran and the cost of replacing the oil contracts ironically think imports of oil from iran have increased since the back libyan war now the prospect of history with iran is causing huge. price installations due to sanctions can be corrected the problems will come if there. are now countries like they'd elected the nasty of a bullet tile situation. it's. the state. of the supply of western measures iranian oil is still finding its way to either buy such as india one in delhi may be next in line for us sanctions. most important allies at

a. task like to push to tighten the screws on tehran and its partners. well the un's most powerful group is to get an update on the syrian crisis form and boy kofi annan diplomats hope joint. mission will breathe new life into stalled security council talks aimed at ending the year long balance with east correspondent has more now on how much hinges on the efforts. the former head of the united nations kofi annan will later today for a day briefed the united nations security council via video conference from his office in geneva he will be updating the conference on the latest regarding his proposals that include an immediate halt to fighting humanitarian access to civilians who have been trapped by this violence and also political dialogue within syria you know last weekend was in damascus where he met with the syrian president

bashar assad and opposition leaders and he came on record after that visit in saying that the full dialogue is open the syrian government has indicated that it has responded positively to announce proposals and this weekend they will be a humanitarian mission from the united nations that will be led by the syrian government in damascus to assess the situation on the ground as far as the play is in the u.n. go you have a split with washington sonce and britain on the one hand and russia and china on the other she too has been a behind aside and they are calling for his resignation they are pushing pressure on him and they have said that his days are numbered and also on the other hand backed by the chinese have said that he needs to be shared between the regime and the opposition parties and that that by putting pressure only on one side by calling for a one sided sanctions and at the same time mulling some kind of foreign intervention

is only going to escalate the crisis costumers insisted that it needs to be established who exactly already disagree various armed factions in the day to need to be brought into the fold of dialogue no must go has said that announce proposals need to be backed by international players and certainly this effort by kofi annan is the latest attempt to resolve this. political analyst in a show he says a foreign powers who peddle support into one side of the syrian conflict any peaceful solution they are special forces on the ground from nato countries and m i six and cia operatives are there this is well known sources incidentally it's the old it's little hearsay it is actual fact british special forces have met up with members of the free syrian army and they are training members of the free syrian army from

a base in turkey british m i six operatives it's said to have reportedly been training the rebels who. know what it is that that means. the west them doesn't realize staveley nato are underground all of it inside syria. and they are complicit in. an entity an armed good city which is not an opposition which is fighting government forces. plenty more ahead in this hour including unveiling the enemy two years off recusing alleged bradley manning are aiding an unnamed foe government prosecutors from they say who it is the case against the soldier. and later we take it to you catherine were to dust off a precious business tucked away urals. subsumes. still deep rangar in egypt with thousands gathering in cairo over the football

stadium stampede which killed seventy four people last month dozens of people have been charged with murder and negligence including a former security chief and eight police officers. ports it's just compounding the despondency over a revolution that was meant to bring better lives. the revolution happened just around the corner these streets are really close to here and have always been and if i know actual interest top of the city but over the past year with the protests spreading breaking out these shopkeepers have seen their lives lost and their livelihoods broken repairs and cleanup in the wake of protesters clashes with police brought many businesses to a halt meaning they're already small income was hit. after the revolution there's been less work because of all these events we shut down early and go home because there's no business we have to stay closed for several days immediately following the op rising on january twenty fifth last year at the security situation in the

egyptian capital remains on easy in fact many residents say right now it's even worse than it was at the height of the uprising last year there are one out of every two people you meet in the street under the age of twenty five who doesn't work. and this is a potential for problems the angry unemployed youth often choose to sweep in after the protestors losing and stealing from damast shops does the wrong people everything we have here like other businesses in the neighborhood are also looted small houses on the street and near tahrir square either broken into or robs everyone sufferance in an attempt to keep the protests under control the government installed cement walls blocking off the area around the top tier square it may have made things easier for the police but it's only made matters worse for locals but the barricades they've built on the streets they've really affected us as well as the huge protests we haven't worked for seven days since and afterwards had to

clean up a lot of the hole yet most egyptians believe the main problem is not the mess which follows the protests but the absence of jobs which turns many desperate people into looters it was the country's flailing economy which forced thousands out into here square in the first place their first slogan that was here in the areas where was the word bread because it was. it was actually getting ugly people were killing each other in the line while it was hope their allusion would turn all of that around bringing more jobs to people and food on their tables but as things stand now more than a year after the uprising even those who did have a livelihood are now struggling to stay afloat even if i was quite see cairo. while he's on line when he wanted a dot com here's what we've got there for you right now is another violent crackdown on occupy protesters headquarters in miami and security forces stormed an

apartment most of them children were living legally for the footage and for life. plus darling's dash of the story of suited customers entered a restaurant attracted from top sales and then base jump from the fifty fifth floor . to dock. of. the u.s. led strategy in afghanistan is taking a beating from both sides but those coming from the afghan government and the town about that is the mr militant group has suspended peace talks with washington describing america's position in the conflict as rhetoric and the vague afghan president so grounded on the nato campaign calling on the forces to leave the room there is nothing about this week's massacre of sixteen civilians by an american

soldier the instance has intensified calls for an earlier exit of nato troops apparently because i wanted his forces to take control of security by next year they tell me plans to withdraw by twenty fourteen went to the south cross-talk heads from experts who take on america's military strategy. and when we talk strategy strategies military this country doesn't succeed when it. loses its military if somebody fights back except for world war two when you go through all of the other wars we don't have the staying power we're not going to get good staying power ultimately we're going to leave if not this year then next to the year after and everybody knows that what i'm doing. this year. what about panama. i was just you know there's already been on saturday but it's no heating history if you look at all the places where the u.s.

military has intervened it's been a story of remarkable stability in all these places don't resemble switzerland necessary but iraq has a nascent democracy it's violent we exit it too quickly kuwait is free persian gulf oil flow those are very interesting areas you can see that. right now if you look at the instances where we've. gretchen you want to jump in you want to just agree to get the answer. i just want to say that you're wrong i'm saying when people fight back we don't do well. an attorney for u.s. soldier bradley manning who's accused of leaking hundreds of thousands of pages of classified information was asked a military judge to dismiss the charges he argues the government's mishandle certain documents in the case said that your authorities have they said the enemy running is charged with assisting so that if convicted a soldier could face life in prison a spokesman for the group supporting that includes he's already been subject to

punishment. they can make these claims and go on with this fear mongering as they have been as much as they want but they're entirely baseless and we know that they're baseless because we know for fact that the government conducted a number of internal impact assessments that found that the wiki leaks materials did not pose any threat to our national security that our troops were never put in harm's way it reminds me of growing up in school going to civics class you know you learn these basic concepts you know trial turns to perceived punishment you know that these are basic foundational concepts of you know western law and justice and that's been completely thrown out the window in this case and that's a clear violation of his eighth amendment rights that's a clear violation of articles one in sixteen of the un convention against torture that's a treaty that has been ratified by congress in accordance with the constitution and

these really aren't optional standards these are basic rules of the road that the administration needs to play by and if they're not able to do that then they're not qualified to govern. for a second look at what else is making news around the world the sound. survivors and relatives of the victims from tuesday's swiss bus crash have returned to brussels family members spent thursday identifying their loved ones who died with a cage to toward inside the tunnel killing twenty eight people missing children one of the young survivors who want to see trying to change the deed just before the crash of this mystical three. hundred is prime minister has attacked european union addresses for most of the thousands who pass you kings brussels of colonialism disrespecting his country's sovereignty interfering in its domestic affairs he was concerned of the changes to hungary norwich and some is

undermining democracy brussels is already taking measures against hungary and successive budget deficit. police in chile have detained about fifty people who are among thousands of students readying to urge reform of the country's education system three officers were injured in clashes the much wasn't sanctioned by the her actions or security forces broke up the rally turned violence using tear gas some difficulties. which are now to explore one of russia's biggest cities and what it has to offer. well nestled in the mineral rich your own mountains or katherine has always been across the country for its precious stones but big industry had a battle of its market and then this time part in airports took the shine off the

jewels. from its beginnings as an outpost of the fledgling russian empire you could tear and burke has grown up as a city which exploited the mineral wealth of the ural mountains it's gone on developing on that line throughout its history and it's those themes the exploitation of the region's rich mineral wealth which i've been examining in my reports the fairy tale mistress of copper mountain it tells of the mysteries of the legendary greenstone malakar it hidden in russia's ural mountains but now a kite it's not some room this looks like a pile of rather dull mountain rocks but step over here and when we have water we can see something of these rocks natural beauty these are the stones of feel the legends and fairy tales of the urals and they also feed the still hands of local craft these men are cutting and clinching precious stones

and cheap among the treasures the most famous greenstone of them all and will. fifty cent should be large one hundred percent translucent with the main properties being color quality and weight is also depends how often the precious stone is found in nature. and most of them will find their way into jewelry and display pieces but as synonymous as the stones seem with the urals the vast majority don't even come from russia just no one person locally developed precious stones here it's very sad and i even feel sort of mean because a jewelry business is built around the stone it's not with the urals assured of these gems quite the opposite in fact precious stones were so easy to find while the cottage industry grew up here around them and nobody bothered to invest much and surveying what deposits exist let alone extracting them and once metals would

have scaled up such as per william which is used in military applications little was thought of destroying the emeralds in which it's normally found. there are still thought to be enormous deposits of emeralds and other precious stones within the euro's and no matter where they come from the region still has craftsman that spend their working lives creating masterpieces from who knows maybe one day if the mistress of copper mountain allows it these marvels in stone could be made from the heart of the country they represent we're going to discuss a little bit more about yucca terran burke's past and its development as the capital of the urals is maxine how mccall he is vice rector here at the ural federal university. if we start off back in the past the discovery of the huge mineral wealth that there is around here perhaps you could talk us through the development of the city from its early origins right well see the history of

mining here and into motion here goes down to the late seventeenth early eighteenth century and we can track it up to the neighbors family one of the most to reach people here in russia and they built a lot of factories here you know not only in the uk it's a number wasn't originally then in thirty's you're in the soviet or through in the it involves a trades it's a lot of heavy engineering tractor is you know so this was it stalin's industrialisation so we take that up too if we call it the region's moments of crisis really after the fall of the soviet union in the ninety's and the region i think it's probably fair to say found itself a bit lost right well of course when you have so many you know factories

and then you know the whole economy collapsed you know see the city was into crisis and then the whole region was in a crisis it's actually even the war not to well it would be a shallow sea criminal kev it's all prostrate this time for the moment i think straight that you'll raise a stage a small business is working quite well thank you so much simpler mccall from the university here you can turn burke has a city that's never been afraid to push business opportunities where they come from the ural mountains or from all that the shopping malls that are springing up here and it's that future that will be looking at the development of a turn burg in the decades to come. but we have more from the year olds to come later today and sets out to explore another major hub.

well let's head over to the business now with katie and i understand the oil is dominating the market news right now it is it really is actually we've got all

sorts of mixed reviews at the moment because we've got david cameron on one hand the u.k. prime minister saying that now is the time because prices are so high to start tipping into reserves he said him and the us president barack obama got an agreement to say that they're going to do this but we've recently had a quote from an obama officials saying this isn't the case and it's not in the cards right now so let's check out the prices and let's just see how high they really are. there we are as you can see you're looking at a lot of money. and it's cause you all kinds of problems i mean we've also had a quote from a key economist he's otherwise known as doc to do but his real name is mr rubin and he says that this is the real threat to the global economy if we see another hike we could be in trouble so right now for this if we are really keeping an eye on it because it's going to be the real indicator as to everything else with the global

economy the u.s. has been doing well recently it's all prices remain high this could change moving i'm going to see how i got on the small and they are indeed trading japan that finished off not so well as you can see is some red colors on your screen right there and that's because the yen has actually strengthened exporters have been really well this week because of a weaker yen but now as you can see they finished up just a tad lower china they're still going straight as you can see there about a quarter percent in negative territory now the russian markets they opened over an hour ago actually and it's a mixed picture is pretty for lack really and that's despite those high oil prices as we look at the stocks to see how they're performing. well that better today. very disappointing day yesterday out and they would be selling eight percent of their shares to the public investors were put off by that but as you can see

they've managed to come back in positive territory. in the right despite all prices carter says if we look at the ruble we can see that. just a fraction higher and that's ahead of us inflation and industrial production that's due out today we could be seeing how that gets on the table that is high as well against a group of. gold this is an interesting one because it's at its least bullish two months prices have to raise more than heart of this year's value as you can see is that is just now as far as you can see. all the disappointing but it was particularly high this is apparently because of the strengthening u.s. economy as far as the gold market is concerned i want quantity of easing they want but i think it's a signal that so that's a big also because the u.s. market is doing better means that risk appetite improves and therefore money is going into other sectors now that's how the markets but the small and i always think people on the street sleeping overnight across the globe i'm talking sick of

sydney paris or kinds of places why they want an i pad it's the third generation that they want and as you can see they're going absolutely bonanno so are now probably this one in particular part it has a better screen according to apple the cameras it's not involved as a revolutionary product like the earlier versions of it how does it start the very days that come up and i can tell you that the act was stalled or an all time high the most valuable company and they dumped pulte five percent this year alone and partly that's because a lot of court broke blue chip companies a little following them for their stuff some of us i can't us talk about it so it's not about fifty five minutes.
