the boston market have i been stuck in a red holding nothing in asia i'm a drop in oil prices time in about twenty minutes time i have the official figures for you now this in front of them. costing live from moscow twenty four hours a day this is our city government forces have reportedly begun to withdraw from conflict zones across syria it's part of a planned ceasefire next week which many hope for a long hot spring east of the war torn nation but there's a growing doubt over whether the rebels supplied by western cash and support will choose to honor the truce. has more now from the region. a syrian government official has confident that syrian troops have begun with point with calm cities and returning to their bases lot in the more volatile cities the troops have moved
3:02 am
to the outskirts now this town is about only ahead of a deadline for an international peace plan to be incremental devils' the prime minister's car forward by the former u.n. chief. but according to the plan the opposition will have some forty eight hours to stop financing and this is according to the syrian government has freeze that if the opposition does not come to the party then this peace plan has no chance of surviving get the same time on sunday we saw a meeting by the strains of syria and this was where the united states and other allies cage the support to the opposition here we heard that they were willing to find and provide communication equipment to the opposition with the syrian opposition confirming that saudi arabia and other allies to say that they would be pledging millions of dollars for salaries to the rebels so that they could stay part of their opposition to the syrian government now this is a very controversial news because on the one hand you have this personal attention
3:03 am
and this if that and confirmation by the syrian government that it's moving ahead with the peace plan but on the other hand you have the opposition seemingly straight saying that it's going to receive support from the united states and other western allies to increase its opposition. to the route from the universal peace preparation is skeptical about the decision to form the rebels to these potential cease fire. sending money as much as millions of dollars to the rebels or to the opposition is today inside syria will help them a lot i mean they will help them in military just takes military equipment so artillery and this will not act as a support to the united nations planned regional powers such as turkey or saudi arabia or qatar they want to see in or stop for this civil war i'm sorry to say this because it has been so far in action since here they want to have that much pressure on the regime of president bashar assad in order for him to leave the
3:04 am
country and let them have their the new president has a loyalty to the saudis or the companies and even the west because i mean no such nation has stood up and their resistance inside lebanon and even healthy and a new regime or the islamic republic of iran as such like. and if in the few years that he was president since two thousand and. ten in egypt the muslim brotherhood's attempts to install this president but a damper on the country's drive for freedom now these people are valid challenges his cross-talk yes i think islam and democracy can co-exist food programs. in the wake of america's so-called war incur which. push the muslim brotherhood. party. officially political landscape. i don't
3:05 am
remember. oh no no no no no no raise over the brotherhood has been underground for decades going back to the era of denial of the last or so i mean i'm not quite sure where in the view is going is going the fact. a new bill for internet security is finding great support among us all makers in their own hands defamation gathering to combat cyber attacks and terrorism and freedom activists say it could lead to wiretapping private communications but the state is going to try to expose that washington selective support of internet freedom. the u.s. government continue spending millions of dollars to support freedom of year net around the world but is it freedom for all we can leaks which to many has become the symbol of fear now freedom has been under fire from u.s. officials and lawmakers because we can reach published documents which embarrass
3:06 am
the american government in many ways we can expect come to the enemy the u.s. has reportedly issued a secret indictment against julian assigns the head of the website which leaves hundreds of thousands of documents revealing embarrassing details about wars in iraq and afghanistan five major u.s. financial institutions and he said master card pay pal western union and the bank of america have tried to economically strangle leaking leaks by blocking donations to the web site until recently peter van buren has served as a foreign service officer at the state department he says he was fired over the book and the blog that he wrote about the failure of u.s. policies in iraq the state department since two thousand and eight has spent seventy six million dollars overseas on internet freedom giving tools and support to bloggers and journalists and online people around the world particularly in countries that we have difficulties with at the same time the state department has spent all that time and all that money supporting those bloggers it has found
3:07 am
internet freedom to be inconvenient in the form of we q leaks i guess work just as hard and spent probably more money trying to shut down free speech that it opposes well supporting free speech that it furthers america's own political goals overseas we call that hypocrisy but it's not just a leaking website is that the u.s. is after but also their sources critics say this is ministration has embarked on an armed president his campaign against whistleblowers in this culture with this administration is going after whistleblowers in and out president away we all have an obligation to protect our sources i have to say that i myself am really nervous about the safety of some of the people that i talk to. as a journalist the covers national security i'm talking all the time with people that work in the intelligence and the military community to send shock waves through the community while trying to stifle inconvenient beliefs at home the u.s. perceives the internet and social networking platforms as major tools for spreading
3:08 am
democracy and spends millions of dollars to help people in the middle east and trying to get around here and blocking firewalls at the same time ironically enough american companies provide bahrain saudi arabia and kuwait with their technology to effectively block websites a lot of the tools of control that are used by the all repressive governments are provided by american company the difference is that corporations for better or worse talk about profit as their motivation and government however the american government wants about freedom and democracy as its motivation when in fact in many ways it can in the opposite direction some argue that left uncontrolled the export of surveillance inside blocking tools by american companies could undermine beer in everything the same way as arms exports undermine peace initiatives as far as the us government efforts to secure a air freedom there seem to be true kinds of freedoms freedom that they encourage and freedom that they punish but is there such
3:09 am
a thing as too freedoms and very strict reporting for us to take part in. the planned cyber security the war comes hard on the heels of the stop online piracy act and protect rights act which both failed because of public outrage ok for them and from the center for democracy and technology believes the new bill may share their fate as it's a basic infringement of prophesy. essentially what the bill does is it creates a structure whereby private companies are encouraged to monitor first cyber threat information that goes across their networks and then share that information with the government doesn't specify to whom in the government that information should be shared but the structure of the bill all likelihood would be that it would be shared primarily with the national security agency or another component of the department of defense so we have a number of concerns with something like this that creates sort of a vast hole in the privacy law to allow government to receive this kinds of information i think one of the last sins that we learned in the reaction to it. is
3:10 am
that when congress tries to legislate on the things that are going to be a fact internet users experience the internet users are going to pay attention and bills you know like congressman rogers information bells and congress definitely could affect in a very serious way the internet experience and so you know people are starting to notice. this later today will bring you more discussion on concerns over to cloning of freedom and democracy in the u.s. there's criticism of the importance systems for the political forces being true to you before they emerge you can watch. the news of this is from the outside do you want it mixed. reviews in the choice of americans the ordinary americans that you have a monopoly of to corporate back parties it is in the interests of those two parties to exclude any voices that challenge the political monopoly of the financial elite
3:11 am
over society no one asked the american people in two thousand and eight and two thousand and nine should trillions of dollars be handed out to the reckless financier's on wall street that destroyed the economy if they were they would clearly say no that money should go to schools should go to jobs it should go to health care so the. political monopoly that exists isn't because there is a. general consensus in the population for that it is it is it it is a monopoly against genuine democracy. the u.k. government is calling for an end to cheap deals on alcohol and the effort to curb binge drinking they say parking prices and supermarkets are encouraging people to drink more but others say creasing prices won't help. either but it reports some consequences could even be fatal.
3:12 am
busier average friday night out in britain is not yet midnight but many people have already drunk well over the limit that was considered binge drinking. i drink about that one time classics maybe. fifty six yeah checkpoints yeah. maybe a couple shops probably. maybe fifteen sixty it's this kind of heavy drinking that's being blamed for the soaring numbers of deaths for a liver disease in the u.k. eleven and a half thousand people die each year from the disease twenty five percent more than just a decade ago according to medical data most of those deaths down said alcohol abuse so how much is too much well the recommended daily limit is four units of alcohol so around two pints of beer but even if you drink. nights so full points appear
3:13 am
that we've been string canyon according to experts seriously damaging your health but even lease is nothing compared to what many get free come last which is really a very. key part of a few. modern few shops example. now you can call an amount six times more than what's considered safe right now called price projects where there is a very great need to address the alcohol misuse issue in the united kingdom the short and long term side of his on the short term you know the issues around getting weight getting in trouble potentially putting yourself at physical risk or you know violence or something along those lines those are all short term issues that need to be addressed then you have the longer term health issues which are issues around heart disease cancer liver disease the government blames supermarkets selling booze rock bottom prices just twenty pounds can buy used many as forty cans
3:14 am
of strong cider it now wants to ban these multi buy discounts and impose a minimum price of forty pence a unit it will fall supermarkets to effectively double their prices on the cheap piece drinks but the industry's adamant it's not cost that's causing the trouble the heaviest drinkers people drink problematic levels of alcohol a least likely to get it to drinking but price rises in front a minimum unit price would do is raise the price for millions of ordinary consumers live there is a section of society likely to be whole is that it's the ports those are the lowest income so it seems very unfair on a policy that's not actually going to be successful in tackling the problem drinkers at the moment that falls to the police punch drunk punch ups a familiar sight come closing time the government claims ending bargain boozing would instantly cut crime and messily rich alcohol related deaths but with the bulk
3:15 am
of binge drinkers already paying over the proposed minimum it's clearly not the temp but the bar them from having another destructive night on the tiles are the bennett. more accusations of pentagon meddling and style in yemen where the finds itself being dragged into nothing. escalating conflict. and israel's prime minister says economic isolation is not enough to make iran abandon its nuclear program despite the lack of evidence that iran is legitimate criticism for anything other than domestic spending. they took from flight recorders of a plane which crashed in western siberia on monday reportedly shows that the pilots decision not to spray the aircraft with antifreeze was the main cause of the accident according to russian newspaper it's led to ice forming inside moving parts of the wings the aircraft hit the ground just minutes after takeoff only twelve out

3:17 am
they were talking and escalating this rhetoric up for civil war the country wasn't avoided before but it is exactly divided now and this is not another one of those divisive tactics to split the country into two the problem with the two regions in iraq is there are actually affect only now four in amongst each other all revenues this is the chaos there is the post-war plan for iraq it's the most laissez faire economy on the planet and this is exactly what corporations want is. political disputes amongst the amongst the regions but no one's actually looking at the bigger picture which is the pillage of iraq by western private corporations. well we have many more stories that might catch our eye on our web site r t v dot com here's a taste of what's lined up for you right now. scandal in india this is leaked to the country's defense is a two week of time was spent three. hundred trucks but
3:18 am
not her russian agent. chapman is getting close to a member of president obama's cabinet with more to come. for than three days of nonstop u.s. bobbins in south yemen has left at least forty three suspects but it's instead of washington intensified its support for yemeni government s trikes killed both insurgents and civilians trials of the american institute on yemeni studies these the u.s. is playing but are getting involved in yet another conflict where is the determination of who is a legitimate target or not. and you know just because you know this place is that
3:19 am
quite a bit. is a military target how do you determine what you are. right i think you know the danger is that the united states will be drawn into a counterinsurgency operation i think that's where we're headed maybe no distinction between you know somebody who is a terrorist or united states and you know somebody who is this participating in a counterinsurgency inside of yemen married the president. another country grappling with anti government since these military john was ignored on its neighbor this exit from power i mean come on this. these control of the town last month to suppress rebels in the country's north but the now it's an african union of that's close to travel about economic restrictions imposed earlier. written system in control of involvement regional hell it was up to and you know.
3:20 am
tornadoes have torn through dallas in the usa of homes and leaving a trail in their wake under the flights also been cancelled and out of the state or the dozen people have been injured by power cuts to thousands of homes have been promoted. french police have launched a new wave of raids across the country arresting ten suspected is missed. from the sentencing and follows the killing of seven people. you missed because he is currently playing with a presidential campaign and is about to crack down on radicalization in the country . israel's prime minister benjamin netanyahu has criticised economic sanctions as an ineffective two with against iran's nuclear program as well as comments from russia's foreign minister that things are a spectrum the show new evidence that iraq breached the nonproliferation agreed it
3:21 am
should inches away from the school of oriental and african studies in london says the case against iran is built on faulty logic. cie concern as it is stated in all it's to poor since two thousand and three is that i can confirm that iran does not have any intention to build nuclear weapons and that is basically trying to prove a negative which is largely impossible you cannot prove that somebody does not want to do something and it's a case of iran iran has allowed. time and again in the country the problem with iran seems to be its uranium enrichment program which is iran's inalienable right the nonproliferation treaty article saw and that seems to be the basis of all the problems that the us has. the us wants iran to give up its
3:22 am
uranium enrichment program altogether and only import nuclear fuel which is something that iran cannot accept and should not accept and i don't think that will accept in the future. for its knowledge or in this case for about what's happening in the financial markets case imports so this is the start well we've been seeing losses are pretty much and that's following on from asia it was a negative close on wall street as well that's because the u.s. federal reserve seemed less eager to launch additional monetary stimulus now the european markets they opened up in the last twenty minutes or so to see how they kicked off as you can see it in negative thoughts on the dow is there following on from losses yesterday the e.c.b. the european central bank meeting today and they too are not expected to launch any monetary stimulus to their cells within how that plays out into the markets and later on we'll be monitoring the situation for you and moving on with the how the
3:23 am
russian markets are performing in their second hour of trade they remain in the red as you can see standing those losses. there was a report from a just b.c. showing business activity growth slows in the country is services lost among the so that's obviously a concern and i think the stocks as well to talk about today we've got the last hydro they are indeed down a point nine percent that that's all reported to pretty. to state. the the bank has been expressed by and there you are i was about m.k. they tear around a lot of dissent in negative territory there was a situation where russian calls are freezing it touches a straight in iron ore explorer mine so that's one to watch out for we go out to about as well look at them they're doing rather well indeed nearing the really present in positive territory they're set to launch their production of a new model a new model of a car lot of the law this is their first joint project so weighed in on this than
3:24 am
otherwise and looking forward to seeing what that looks like to see how the currency is getting on we've got the ruble open for business as i was the house before me and it's still a mixed performance that we've got at lerwick and see us dollar and the high i can see here at this hour the euro dollar that is still struggling for direction for one point thirty one and ninety one for the traders favorite path and then see how all of those doing and going up in march here for the last few hours this morning it's not really moved so much a tool that today and it's acquiring first second day off to report showing a rise in u.s. crude stockpiles as well as the information from the federal reserve meeting that i was talking about that indicated that trying to see no need for any monetary easing unless the economic situation worsens so that is how the markets are looking now as well on the topic of natural resources let's talk about the russian situation and that depends. on what results dependency of the local businesses now how do they
3:25 am
