student protests against tuition hikes in canada enter their hundred days demonstrations in defiance of a new emergency law turning violent leading to dozens of injuries and hundreds of arrests. germany's enthusiasm for europe wide austerity comes under fire from british opposition politicians with mounting fears of my spell disaster for the global economy plus. as if i'm wrong this is the only country you can be sure never to have it is the united states because it hasn't got a us embassy ecuador's president the latest to appear on juliana songes interview program exclusively on r t to talk about attempts to oust him and his defiance of washington.

am in moscow i met très a can tell you with us here on r t our top story as the student protest movement in the canadian province of quebec is marking its one hundredth day rallies against tuition hikes are turning violent more than three hundred people arrested in montreal after the latest wave of clashes with police that erupted when protesters started to hurl as fault i feed off a service clash descended into battles lasting several hours at least ten from both sides were injured the government introduced an emergency law aimed at quelling protest but demonstrators of to ignore it kadian journalists michel boyer says the law will do nothing but misfire more on the rest of. the bill was seventy eight which is what that's it's all and its goal is to convert everything. down it was

established by the provincial government. in canada we have a we have a charter and one of the articles in the charter is the right to protest peacefully and people and protesters now are saying is that certain provisions of this new law are and fringing on the freedom to protest peacefully so people are in fact even to retaliate even stronger one of the most extremist groups has publicly said that it is completely going to do you shy this new bill and is going to go against it it's going to continue protesting so it's going to be quite an interesting scene of events here we really don't know what's going to happen really until the until the government since down with the student organization since down to talk. as the nato summit in chicago draws to a close the block's leaders reaffirm their commitment to ending the increasingly unpopular war in afghanistan in two years' time talk of troop withdrawal dominated

day two of the gathering which ended in a joint declaration that nato will end its combat mission there but maintain a significant presence in the country after twenty fourteen or he's got a chicky on his fall in the late largest summit and he says history. as far as the war in afghanistan supply routes have been a big concern on the summit there vital for nato operations there as well as for the upcoming troops withdrawal the route through pakistan still remains closed it was shut down around six months ago after a u.s. airstrike killed two dozen pakistani soldiers by mistake this summer's declaration says they're still working on a deal on a new deal with pakistan in the meantime the alliance relies heavily on northern routes that's a key area of cooperation between russia and nato because russia provides its airspace railroads and other routes to supporting our national forces in afghanistan the importance of that cooperation was also underscored in this joint declaration in their statement nato leaders were focusing on how they are getting

out of a van is that because the war has become so unpopular drained so many resources most analysts describe it as a failure but there is a process that many are worried about and that is that nato is taking up a new role which has nothing to do with defending europe but in north america it's becoming an offensive force thousands of people took to the streets of chicago to protest against what they see as an expanding war machine answering a journalist question president obama said he was quite happy with how chicago police handled the protests that raised some eyebrows considering scores of activists were badly injured here's my colleague honest. reporting from the streets of chicago. chicago under siege. the last couple of days have seen oceans of protesters thousands marching under a blistering sun to vent their anger at the military alliance wants to know if.

this rally fronted by iraq and afghan war vets who feeling betrayed by the system drew away their medals. after a minute of so. islands for those who perished in the west led wars. hell breaks loose we're seeing the clashes began as protesters try to get through the barricades that the police have made on their way to the convention center. like chaos but tons of people shoved and dragged police thrown onto their knees bleeding faces. one officer stabbed dozens of protesters arrested. these men may consider this conduct that they engaged in today unbecoming of the dignity that is demanded of them by their station hundreds and hundreds of police not just in riot gear but military armor with guns and but tons that they willingly

deploying on people. a day earlier a smaller but louder march also took to the streets it's an ad capital. i'm sure everyone here hopes to start a revolution they're calling it the chicago spring like the arab spring. signs ripped off crowds clashed with police baton and police bikes used to block off the crowds with more blood in the chaos. we do over a million dollars spent on new gear for chicago police a war breaks out with outraged americans fighting for change at home while the u.s. president is busy hosting the summit and the future of warfare abroad and stacie churkin r.t.e. chicago illinois. the nato summit also focused on the issue that's been a stumbling block in relations with russia for some time now european missile defense the bloc declared that stage of that stage one of the european shield is now officially operational but once again failed to provide russia with legal

guarantees a system is not aimed at it international affairs commentator rick rose off tells our team that moscow has a good reason to be alarmed. the united states is never tempted seriously to reach a realistic compromise with russia the american ambassador to nato evo dollar last december you may recall so that the u.s. and nato are forging ahead with the interceptor missile system and i quote him whether russia likes it or not but that's certainly diplomatic talk and what in fact the nato summit as. the middle of two the first a job with the military capabilities and the major a factor there of course was the interceptor missiles as you're driving about and that includes among other things something of a centralized command and control center at ramstein where the u.s. as an air force base where nato as they have. which would coordinate on the voting nato they are not on the radar interceptor missiles and satellites into

a comprehensible layered interceptor missile system throughout the entire european continent. that would have to raise serious concerns in moscow or is. the global economy faces a catastrophe unless germany eases its relentless push for your originations to cut spending that's a thing of the british shadow chancellor and opposition finance spokesman ed balls who says european partners should give more money destruction stricken countries like greece spain and portugal james main way of the new economics foundation think tank agrees that austerity is deepening the crisis. if you drive weak economy europe is collection of weak economies if you drive a weak economy into greater and greater austerity you don't make the economy stronger you make it we can still really this is one of the mechanisms that helped drive the great depression the nine hundred thirty s. for germany to be insisting austerity now is leading only to stagnation inside europe it's making a crisis much worse than it needs to be because the only see the short term impact already i mean if you take the social impact in greece it's absolute catastrophic

in greece one of the lowest suicide rates in europe suicide rates there risen by forty percent over the last year and you can see the social impact from one end of the continent to the other but it's the long term economic impact that starts here there are no realistic prospect to recovery inside europe certainly inside the or as i say there's always austerity is in place i suspect what will happen is that you'll start seeing increasing. deadlock at the center of your with no clear agreement on what exactly should be done next as clouds continue gathering over the crisis hit eurozone people in germany also feeling the pinch recent research showed consumers in europe's biggest economy are now less optimistic about the financial situation there with high petrol prices further fueling their fears are awful parts . of germany the land of high speed autobahns and rapidly changing few prices. petrol is way too expensive we don't have that much money these days

and i think the rich well corporations are reaping a big profit with these prices are making me mad in this day and age when mobility is important there's no alternative either. a big part of this money flows to the government i think it's a giant. shoes can change four or five times produce jumping and dropping the first four months of two thousand and. fifteen to twenty year increase for one germany is one of the few. journalists. together so you can drive often pretty much as fast as he lets you but as fuel prices rise being the liberties of many german primers are so proud of could do some serious damage to their pockets of food think of the cheapest petrol can often cost over one hundred euros and when it comes to big trucks filling them up with diesel could cost up to fifteen hundred euros making them easy bait for thieves

during pit stops. two weeks ago on the twenty fourth highway heading to hamburg they drilled a hole in the tank but the driver noticed and confronted them he came out and got beaten up even duct tape his mouth gas prices depend on state taxes in germany they're among the steepest in europe also in the ratio of the euro to the u.s. dollar in which contracts are signed and of course the price itself which hasn't been going through its most stable time what does affect the price is that it's the overall variable letter situation in the middle east and iran in fact we have all these aircraft carrier groups you know sailing towards the persian we have the threats of war we have american threats of war so the middle east uncertainty continues prices remain unpredictable many german drivers already rearranging their schedules to be to their daily price blips even for a country that worships the wheel it may be high time to rein in the horsepower is

going to germany. political risk consultant dr john holzman says that the turmoil flaring again in the euro zone is either going to make up or break up he shares his thoughts with our t.v. interview coming your way in about twenty minutes here's a preview. problem as they set up a currency without having a country and it's like building a house from the attic down you don't get all the things like federal deposit insurance which means your banks are guaranteed you don't have a common policy where the european central. can act like the fed and be a lender of last resort you don't have all the things that make nations transfer money to weaker areas within countries just as a matter of course in study of germans grumbling about greeks who retire at fifty two and you have greeks grumbling about germans having dicked forced upon them that's because these people are in the same boat rowing in the same direction that's the problem and so they created this weird push me pull you two headed monster. it's

been described as one of the most democratic leaders in latin america's history and a champion of the poor ecuador's president rafael correa is the latest guest a whistleblower julian assad it is show that you can see exclusively on our t.v. later today from kuwait from coups against him to strain relations with the u.s. he describes the challenges he faces under attack from his country's rich and powerful our london correspondent laura smith has more. it's the sixth episode of today and i saw his interview show and his guest is rafael carette who's the president of ecuador he is a controversial figure he's a left wing populist and one of latin america's most progressive leaders and he's actually a beneficiary as you might say of wiki leaks in that one of the cables released revealed that the u.s. had been supporting a structured campaign by a powerful businessman to destabilize korea's government back in two thousand and seven the us embassy cables also reveals that the most popular president in

ecuadorian democratic history but of course that popularity doesn't sit well with everybody and in fact there was a police against him back in two thousand and ten accompanied by unconfirmed speculation that the u.s. which of course is never far from politics in latin america was somehow involved. as it is the only country you can be sure never to have a coup is the united states because it doesn't go to u.s. embassy. in any event i'd like to say that one of the reasons that led to the police disc in turn was the fact that we kept all the funding the u.s. embassy provided to the police there will hopefully soon it's key units fully funded by the u.s. embassy whose office is in command which chosen by the u.s. ambassador and paid by the u.s. we did away with all that. after that coup correia kicked out the u.s.

ambassador who was there at the time correct talks about the arrogance of the ambassador in that time when he when he told her that she was going to be kicked out and of course this is all part of a wider plan for ecuador to pull away from the u.s. part of that also is a career's refusal to extend the lease on u.s. bases stationed in ecuador there are many reasons for that let's hear him talking about just one of them. but it's not a problem to set up the u.s. you know he said we could do we can give the go. granted permission to sort of talk during military base in miami. unlikely that that's going to happen of course but joking aside this this goes back to korea's socialist roots one of the main uses for the u.s. air bases in ecuador is to perform strikes on drug smugglers and has admitted that his father was in fact a drug smuggler and says that far from being a sort of sort of criminal overlords your run of the mill drug smuggler in ecuador

is just a women desperate to feed their family so he wants to help them rather than punish them now that's just a little bit of this program he also talks about the media in ecuador says he wants to dispel this image of big government persecuting saying leave journalists and news outlets and saying that actually it's the other way around that the media is often owned by big businesses and rich people who use it specifically to push their own agendas you can't have that now though the latest episode of julian assange his program is going to be broadcast hair on r.t. at eleven thirty g.m.t. . just like laura so that interview with ecuador is president at eleven thirty g.m.t. here on r.t. . there hasn't been anything yet on t.v. . it is to get the maximum political impact.

the source material is what helps keep journalism. we want to present. something else. i mean even egypt's first presidential election since his revolution it's the economy that's shaping the views of many voters whoever wins power will take over a country with desperate biracial problems well over a year on from the popular uprising against authoritarian rule there are teaser in english the reports from cairo of mohamed some e.u. has spent most of his life living abroad he returned to egypt just in time to see the rouge unravel in the economy shrivel mama's real estate development business suffered a harsh blow during the egyptian uprising in the year that followed she struggled to keep his company afloat we had a lot of money in the market the people told us

a lot of people just fled out of the country he never came back so we had their accounts that we don't know where they are so we come back here. and at the same time we have to continue our work so we have to put money from our pockets like money mohamed hopes a new rule would bring in new opportunities for investment but he says the comic policy of the interim government turned out to be only as does bad as that of the previous regime. well you would like to be treated like the big scare them to promote we both pay the same taxes with both pay the same duties and use so our costs of the end of the day would be equal at least in terms of what we have to pay to the code the reforms conducted by the now ousted president mubarak several years ago did bring a certain stability to the gyptian economy but since their evolution the country's finances are in ruins their currency is in jeopardy people are jobless an angry and the only way out seems to be in boring enormous loans from the likes of the i.m.f.

it's just over three billion dollars that the interim government is asking for but critics of the idea of boring from the i.m.f. means being in debt is not just financially but politically as well we do not like the interventions of the i.m.f. and institutions and i'd be have their orders and they have their own agenda that are controlled by. the superpowers we're not the super power we had a very small power that we can act on our own we have money we'll need to know who the presidential elections just around the corner many of egypt's fifty million voters being closer attention to the candidates economic programs after all for many of them it's a make or break moment in the country's history and in their lives i believe of the good life for. me and my family with a lot of money and. a lot of other things and i was somebody i'm looking for i'm looking to do something for my people. in cairo.

tensions remain high in the capital of lebanon after two people were killed in clashes there monday is the latest in a series of violent confrontations in the country between opponents and supporters of the assad regime in neighboring syria carol shohreh middle east blogger told us earlier that he thinks the future prospects are bleak. primarily the balance of military power in lebanon is nowhere near equal at the moment to what we've been witnessing actually are clashes between members of the sunni community and other we community in the north or in yesterday what happened last night where clashes between members of the sunni community that are through an openness to the syrian regime in beirut now if you envision a scenario in which hizbollah would enter the fray for any reason which i don't think is realistic then the balance of power is so unequal that you are unlikely to see any protracted struggle however what we are likely to see is this sort of

similar tension and with frequent explosions that would kind of slowly drag the country into a state of chaos and again political leaders stand completely helpless about doing anything to stop this dynamic or spiraling towards conflict. take a look now at some other stories making headlines across the globe the u.s. senate's imposed a new set of economic sanctions on iran over its nuclear program this a day before the so-called five plus one meeting on the issue starts in the iraqi capital baghdad and after the u.n. watchdog visited iran monday here national community suspects iran might be trying to develop a nuclear weapon while tehran maintains the program is purely for peaceful energy purposes. authorities of violently dispersed peaceful rallies and i was there by john detaining at least ten protesters in the capital baku the death the crackdown took place the day before the city hosts the eurovision song contest with azerbaijan leadership facing pressure from across the globe over the arrest of the

activists the country's governments hit out at critics saying human rights campaigners are spreading lies about the country to tarnish its reputation. a california based private space x. company is said to attempt another lift off of the first commercial supply flight to the international space station there's a. after the launch was aborted over the weekend to a technical problems if the lift off goes well this time the dragon capsule will spend a week at the station before being cut loose and parachuting into the pacific. time to check in with marina at the business desk so what's happening on the market so far hi matt well as you know we've had some of her below weeks across the board but things are looking up right now asia is the only one trading at the moment so we'll start with alice take a look at what's happening there with the figures as you can see there asian markets are on the rise we have technology firms and exporters doing pretty clearly well that's mainly because of a strong performance on wall street and i'll get to that in

a second also have resource firms there particularly well and that's because commodity prices have recovered we have aluminum corporation of china which is dated over two percent this hour but as i said the main driver for growth in asia is the performance on wall street which was particularly strong let's take a look at what happened there nasdaq in fact have its best day in a five months as you can see there again an almost zero and a half percent there and highlight there was in fact apple which gained over six almost six percent so that's has the best stuff we like what i said i'm more optimistic about the company's i phone business of disappointment though was a facebook which stopped eleven percent below its opening below its i.p.o. price and just the second day of trading now here in russia it's two hours ahead of the open of balance you can see there the figures from monday's close in session markets there recovered after a losing streak which resulted in the heavy losses for some investors and by the russians stop was one of the most severe ones among the european emergent company

colonies and that's mainly because of the country's dependency on oil which is of course the tourist spot as i said markets bounce back and as you can see they gain over it soup percent on monday i'll give you the updated figures put out when the markets open but staying with the country's unemployment rate play. to its lowest level last month since the two thousand a financial crisis the jobless rate dropped to five point eight percent from six point five percent in march competence to a spending to make them us the land. also russia is scrapping the requiring foreign banks to get up permits before opening subsidiaries in the country the central bank is even out of its regulations as russia is preparing to answer the world trade organization. and of course russia is very dependent on oil so less think about what's happening there or see more of those gains there and that's after all escaped it's a six week losing streak and that's one hopes that beijing will take action that

suits stimulate growth and now stay with oil the u.s. senate has approved new sanctions on the walls oil sector to force the country to abandon its nuclear program the new sanctions build on penalties against foreign companies trading with iran and the move comes ahead of the meeting in baghdad between major world powers and sauron. and finally time to take a look at currencies the euro is a low war against the dollar now when it comes to the ruble it gains against the greenback but who lost against the euro but will have the updated figures for the way the russian markets will open up which as i said is into our side for the. back right thanks very much marina well a reminder of our top stories coming up in a couple of moments stay with us here on earth.
