we want to present. something real. and demonstrators clashed with police near the summit site in chicago with around a dozen injured more than sixty arrested after one of the city's biggest protest in years turns violent. russia's new government of letting mere putin to return is the president earlier this month due to unveil his team of ministers. victory for the red machine russia regains the world hockey title after crushing slovakia in the final when this year's championship undefeated. and in the business bulletin the russian markets opened on a positive note that it's the ten to read within minutes of trade we'll talk to an expert and about twenty minutes to find out what to expect from the markets this week.

eleven am in moscow i matras a good to have you with us here on r t day one of the nato summit in chicago marked by mass demonstrations there resulted in fierce clashes with police a dozen reportedly injured and about sixty arrested after officers started using but tons to disperse thousand strong crowds artie's anastasio chirk you know was there in the middle of what became the rally the biggest rally in a week of anti-war protests and brings us the details. today certainly was unprecedented for a week of action taking place here in chicago along the sidelines of the nato summit what we witnessed was a march that lasted a few hours that was overall peaceful that ended with violent clashes between riot police and anti-war protesters hundreds of police clashed with hundreds of outraged

protesters there were tons being swung by police plastic bottles being thrown by protesters balloons being thrown of violence at least twelve people from what we know have been injured at least sixty people arrested there were several warnings from police coming that they might have to use chemical on the protesters unless they dispersed that had not been the case of violent clashes leading faeces a lot of chaos about one hundred one hundred protesters were really involved in the action whereas many of the majority of the ones marching were able to disperse before violence kick started here on the ground co-director of the anti-war international action center sara flounders is in chicago and she thinks the action taken against demonstrators shows nato feels threatened by their calls. the very fact that so many thousands of people came out from all across the country and the one message that the police and nato has tried to make is to blame all while and

here is his war machine responsible for violence around the world from drone attacks to to bombings to attacks at war and in afghanistan libya syria threats from iran and yet they're calling the demonstrators violent they have spent weeks and weeks and weeks saturating the media here with wild completely inaccurate fabricated stories about how the demonstrators are violent they actually have charged young people with terrorism charges of million and a half dollar bail they kidnapped people right on the streets of the lawyers spent days trying to find they would not have done that if they did not feel a normally threatened that right here in the u.s. there is a denunciation of nato of its wars and demanding that the troops be brought home from afghanistan that there be no new wars and the end to this skyrocketing

military spending while every social program here is cut it wouldn't be doing any of this if they didn't feel threatened. as protests unfolded on the streets outside the nato summit some big announcements were made inside talks mostly focusing on afghanistan and european missile defense with the blocks chief saying the shield is up and running with interim capability or he's got a chick young reports. this is the first step of base multi-stage missile shield program in europe nato secretary general says for eighteen months they've been working on technical legal issues now they're on track to carry out the program in force because the first stage involves mobile interceptors those are the interceptors and radars installed on ships the plan is to have land based elements of the system deployed by twenty eighteen countries like romania poland the czech republic the netherlands those are going to be systems designed to intercept more and best weapons the missile defense shield that the u.s.

is building in its in europe is a very contentious issue it's been a point of bickering between russia and the us for many years now russia says the shield has the potential to offset the strategic balance that will make russia take steps to restore their balance that is to deploy more weapons something that russia doesn't want to do nato is saying that the system is designed to counter possibly a potential threat from iran but iran doesn't have the kind of weapons that the shoulder is intended for also the us refuses to give legal guarantees that the system will not be aimed at russia at some point so it's a huge issue which is not just about trust it's also about guarantees of galveston is at the forefront of this year's nato summit agenda its member states are going to coordinate this their steps of withdrawal the u.s. is the key member is of course calling the shots american troops are set to leave afghanistan in two thousand and fourteen but under their new agreement with guns then they will remain in certain numbers as the u.s. claims in in a supporting role the general perception among experts is that nato as war in

afghanistan has been a failure as much as the u.s. is trying to truly coat it with the eventual killing of osama bin laden still the war ended up in raging the local population fostering a new kind of extremism also drug production became rampant in afghanistan during the years of occupation and it's billions of dollars that go to support terrorists and organized crime networks around the globe that's the kind of against them. needle is leaving behind nato is also facing identity crisis in a way the alliance is supposed to be about defense but it has long taken up the whole of an offensive force the bombing of libya had nothing to do with defending europe or north america you saw thousands of people in the streets of chicago protesting against nato because they fear that in order to sustain itself to make it to make itself useful be a lie as it is in the business of making wars rather than stopping them russia expected to get a new government monday when recently inaugurated president vladimir putin unveils

his team of ministers the deadline for forming the cabinet expires tuesday but the leadership says it's taken so much time because of the need for a significant shake up or two sorry for the reports. these appointment can really give us that the tone of the president weekend but of course they come against the backdrop of a president to public opposition we see white go right to the top billing in the country that really the opposition pulls book again you russia russia two point zero they're going to want a big get the calls on big corruption have been some you were younger in that cabinet as well a lot of people are going to be looking for a cabinet that's going to be can she say to that reform that they've been holding but we've seen a much more politically engaged population we sometimes hear about. over the weekend at the g eight summit private if the fate of the the new government is going to be substantially the need and that's why it's taken time with the

president not attending that meeting to focus on this full motion of the new government though i do expect if the younger fresher faces then they'll be interesting if there's any opposition members in the new government as well when that by will live up to the now. stay with us here on r.t. still to come serbia's presidential election won by a nationalist candidate but what does it mean for the country's future with the e.u. plus could be a bumpy ride for london's fast approaching summer games are sincere and always line closures and bar strikes threaten to put a squeeze on the olympics we'll tell you more stay with us. so for assistance from new job the rates of. the race if you came in for example the city of. briscoe says more than ten times chose conses food to you in times of duties but the shoes numbers there's no nothing that you have to find in the study.

mean ex-president now is presided over eight years of poverty in which he's only got he have drawn all of financial benefits and that created a kind of i replaced a kind of communism with a kind of corruption is that which has been very good for them and very bad for everybody else in the country and this really has been the problem for the the population has been afraid of change but i also have been afraid of the poverty and despite the promises of an e.u. rose garden even the e.u. governments are very bare at the moment and target is offering looks even more bare as a result. take a look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe violent clashes broke out in lebanon leaving at least ninety injured a new wave of fighting between opponents and supporters of the syrian regime was provoked by the killing of a sunni cleric known for his anti syrian peace he was shot dead by the lebanese army after failing to halt to the checkpoint gunmen were reported to be roaming the

to cope with the huge influx of visitors. welcome to britain where you'll be greeted by queues longer than many flights to get here the maximum wait for passport checks at london's heathrow airport should be forty five minutes but these passengers were stuck for up to two and a half hours last month as britain's busiest airport seized up why because it rained says the government not exactly the sign of a city ready to welcome the world at the imminent olympics four hour delays are predicted and not just at the airports there are huge problems with the transport infrastructure in london as anybody who has visited the city will realize we are basically running on a kind of nine hundred fifty s. infrastructure in terms of airports railways the metro system and so on it is a very out of choosing with the rest of your three million journeys a day are enough to make even a normal service grind to

a halt on london's famous underground never mind the gap it severe delays and impromptu line closures that are notorious here and with a surge of fifteen million journeys on the busiest days of the olympics it's no wonder even transport officials admit you'll be better off on foot this is waterloo station one of london's busiest and a limb pick transport hotspots in fact is expected to be so congested here during the olympics that people are already being handed maps like these telling them how to avoid stations like this one and advising them to walk to work during the olympics because it'll be quicker than taking a team the advertising may be light hearted but walking to work is no laughing matter for most commuters especially when that's what over six billion pounds of investment get c we've got the best transport system in the world without question everybody telling people to walk to work because we're responsible organization

we're just giving practical advice to god. so that they understand the jewish vote on the guy yes it is going to be busy you know we don't we're not hiding behind the fact that the networks going to be busy and that's why we give people less sensible guidance and advice so they can avoid it so that annoy you can be used and that i actually perhaps might enjoy actually walking rather than going on the church and the brakes are on the buses to this london icon may not be seen at all this summer drivers are threatening to strike because they're london's only transport workers not in line for a limp dick bonus pay without them it'll leave another six million passengers to squeeze on to the tube if london's buses do come to a standstill because a strike action are members of a being forced into this city will be gridlocked nothing will move people won't get to the games the athletes the journalists the coaches and the spectators won't even

get anywhere near that limping with barely two months left much of london twenty twelve is on the home straight but in getting from a to b. there are still plenty of hurdles ahead either bennett r t london. janet joins us now from the business desk and its ruling do more on the markets at the moment tell us more. well absolutely it is a bad to in this edition of business will try and figure out how long that's likely to continue the russian markets opened on and on be no but have slipped into red within just minutes of trade and of course that's following a major sell off last week that left the markets at a two and a half year low and of course market participants really trying to figure out what to do all this uncertainty and to make sense of this i'm now joined by your product high of a vice president of financial firm troika dialog here and moscow figured thanks a lot for being with us so what are you expecting for the markets this week

a million dollar question. will after yesterday it will after last a week sell off in the market there are said panic still of the market i think most of the ben excel ing it is over the market definitely will be dominated by the news from european union there will be enough to show meeting on wednesday and probably after that we'll see some maybe humes for the stimulating the economy and the market can recover to beat but on the other hand if you look at american markets we see. that the s. and p. broke through very important level of thirteen countries and that can push the markets for the down but still i don't see i don't expect a need for their kind of panics a lot of the market they'll be some sellers but that will be much more quite a week than before. and all you mentioned at the meeting for the in the euro zone and of course the euro zone uncertainty really weighs on the market but it's two

years on and we're still talking about greece and its potential exit and that the whole situation is wheaton a boiling point how have the markets already priced in the situation or should we expect a major slide if and when greece's exit of the euro zone is finally announced your new solution to it. looks like we're having a technical difficulty here illegally can you hear me. no apparently we've lost the connection will try and bring back a next week but at the moment let's take a look at the equity markets and what we're seeing over and asia right now where the trade is a let's check out the russian markets the russian markets are trading in the red they are to the my six are a losing value this hour here you're seeing those figures and let's now move over

to asia are where the trade is still pretty active in asia is trading mixed in the nikkei is gaining value around a quarter percent mainly thanks to exports companies and some a resource focus companies but they hang saying is actually losing value and that's despite some positive news the chinese leader wen jiabao with the we can't actually said that that he he's really going to focus on reforms he's going to speed up the reforms and that that economic growth is one of his big priorities and now and speaking of priorities europe let's check out europe that's a big story europe is trading old lower and that's following major sell offs at the end of a last week and of course over the weekend we saw a very important event global leaders met to discuss the

fate of the european union the u.s. president barack obama who's that the meeting has repeatedly stressed the need to stimulate growth one of his main concerns is that the euro zone crisis spreads to the united states of course but essentially there was no breakthrough as the g eight leaders once again agreed that it would be best if greece managed to stay in the euro zone but that doesn't mean it can wiggle out of its financial commitments and let's see now how the european the currency is doing as a result of all this. that's actually doing quite well it's gaining against the greenback and the russian currency the ruble is trading mixed at the moment it's gaining to the dollar and is shedding value against the euro and let's now. an important indicator of how the russian markets are trading oil is actually gaining following a six month old that it reached in new york on friday it's the first again in

seven trading sessions and that's all the latest from the world of business i'll be back in about fifteen minutes and all right thank you very much for that update well coming up shortly we examine whether the world's top banks are too big to fail that's after the headlines stay with us.
