in a fight f.b.i. agents and questioned about julian assange the week in leaks website says mr zimmerman was threatened with arrest and imprisonment when he asked about his rights this all happened after his interview with mr r. where they talked cyber security and freedom in the face of ever expanding government civilians here's a bit of it don't miss the whole thing here and r.t. running all day know that some sites technology enables those also the aliens of every communication then there is do do the other side of the coin is what we do with it we could move that forward to go to tactical one there are some indeed some legitimate use investigators investigating the bug guys and there were bad guys and so on may need under the supervision of the judicial authority to be able to use. such tools but the question is where to draw this judicial supervision where to go to the control that the citizens can have over the use of those technologies and

this is a policy should so there was jeremy and a bit earlier and another guest of the show internet freedom activists mari mccarthy the co-founder of the icelandic digital freedom society he too was stopped at the airport and questioned by u.s. officials about julian assange he says he was later followed and approached by three u.s. officials in washington late at night and asked to become an informer sounds like something from a movie as far as the number of people detained or arrested shortly before or after the show might be breaking some television record among other guests there was the president of the bahrain center for human rights and i believe our job was beaten up at bahrain international airport and held in prison for almost a month after recording an interview with julian assange so what can we expect as a few now the court has also raised mr songes extradition to sweden his lawyer.

years of less than two weeks to contest that decision in sweden he's facing quite thin allegations of sexual assault which reportedly had to do with consensual but unprotected sex but his supporters are saying it's not songes unprotected sex that they're looking into but rather a way to get him to sweden where it would be arguably easier to hand him over to the united states judging by the reports about people being interrogated one might say that the u.s. is building a case against julian assange. but you can watch the latest episode of during the saga show here in r.t. starting at eleven thirty g.m.t. . free from prejudice and the stereotypes that's how a president putin has defined russia's ties with china i see looks east for the next three days the neighbors are seeing eye to eye in major international disputes such as the syrian conflict and show concern of u.s. expansion in the asia pacific region and see a show skews in beijing for us. well it's not only just

a visit any just official visit it's a state visit the first one since i've been put in became the president so need to have some certain details about its protocol because as we know what any president i do got to get the full new one state visit to a new country during his captaincy suddenly this outlines how important this visit is and for some experts this has already been a declaration of intent and the declaration of a live event which is show that the foreign policy of russia with his new terrible multi changed now first went to europe now if you go strict china basically the relations between moscow and beijing have been very strong over the last several decades the trade turnover has been reaching one hundred billion dollars in its turn over every year so definitely this is russia's closest ally not only in terms of economic ties but also on very many international issues as well just in particular the syrian issue within the u.n. security council russia and china seem to have

a unified position now suddenly this this visit will be interesting with a lot of it on its agenda to talk about what this visit could mean for the ties we're joined live here in beijing by the young see you from the chinese central international studies as always we're talking about the four nations we know that china and russia have a unified position on syria can we expect some kind of statement to produce than that during the visit of course i think the twentieth there are. great country this we will address this is a very halting. that harpy into some differences between russia china and to some by some that are again countries from china and the russian perspective the key solution lysine. the. and that's a plan rather than lyceum whether or not we see the pub or the. existing government that is not the key so i see russia and the chinese position on syria still it's more responsible and to sign a permanent on the final solution to the crime. yes thank you so much this was mr

yang see you from the chinese central international studies now certainly will be following this visit all two days as it's here and we'll be bringing all the latest details to artie's us every time we get new information. but r.t. talked of in subramaniam who's a senior fellow at the center for global development he thinks china has all that's needed to out run the u.s. economy as a preview of what's coming up for you in about twenty minutes time. at the moment china's g.d.p. for example is smaller than that of the united states. but if you measure it in terms of purchasing power it's as big as the united states one second china is already the world's largest trade. three china is a net creditor to the work it finances the u.s. and the u.s. is a debtor so it's this combination of the size of the economy the fact the big trader and the fact that it's a creditor confers on it

a lot of power today and over the next ten fifteen years all these numbers are going to go in china's favor so the china is going to become an even bigger economy than the u.s. and even bigger treated in the u.s. . the u.n. chief has rejected calls from syria's rebels to impose a no fly zone over the country to help bring down president i sat with him on the floor of the statement from the fighters saying they're no longer committed to the international truce plan proposed by special envoy kofi annan rebels claim that dozens of government soldiers were killed in clashes and attacks on security checkpoints over the last few days the violence comes voices from the u.s. and its allies for armed action that's amid reports of plans to set up military camps in syria something which will only bring more bloodshed according to middle east. i think it would actually increase the likelihood of revenge

killings kind of sectarian tension along mixed areas where kind of revenge operations would start to happen and it will suck more and more people in i think syria now it is at that tipping point where the conflict can be pulled back from a full scale sectarian civil war to kind of some form political framework but once there is actively groups on the ground in syria and whatever kind of formula they are in there they are likely to increase the prospect of bloodshed. i still to come in just a few minutes here now is he paying the price for fakes the bodies and also houses who themselves seriously after all get off being duped by copycats following a rise in fortress. america's defense chief has resume touting his arms catalog around the asia pacific region with india the latest sales target they employ that's his tour is largely seen by experts as a red rag to china and the same time the firing of hot spots on the world that has

both another high ranking u.s. official said to state hillary clinton the south caucasus i don't know why did i see a war with advisory for country risks in the nation's americas less concern to security and more with shifting power in the region. secretary of state clinton is looking to achieve in the caucasus what america is trying to achieve more overall around the world and that is to continue to enhance its image and its ability to influence what's going on in the region the caucuses have been largely ignored by america for a great deal of time and now that there's a resurgence of russian influence in the region it's only natural that america would want to do something in return there are pockets of conflict in the region that concern the united states and the concerns of course other regional powers but let's not forget where the caucasus is located it's in russia's backyard it's only natural that russia's historical relationship with the region and the various

countries would be superior to that of america certainly at the present time mrs clinton's biggest influence is likely to occur in georgia let's not forget that georgia has had a historically close relationship with united states for a number of years now and that it was particularly close during the bush era georgia certainly seems to want to be heading in the direction of nato and i think that she is likeliest to see the most success and the most influence there. well of course you can log on to our website to r.t. dot com we've got all the latest news and updates there as well as anything you may have missed and here's some of what's there if you right now does have a look no promised land from migrants israeli government sends a message to africans prime minister calls from last deportation while human rights groups describe expulsion as normal. and post revolution in libya see shooting involving mission group uses all of vehicles to capture the main airport in tripoli

and chaos drags the country back into bloodshed. as caro braces itself the largest rally seen in months calling for the execution of ousted president mubarak the muslim brotherhood's presidential candidate is looking to use the protests to wipe out his rival even before round two of the vote. join the calls of revolutionary groups for a million nine march on tuesday to capitalize on the mubarak sentiment dumbarton reports now from egypt which could again be sliding into instability. revolution premier but these protesters never expected to be back in time risk where just a year after they ousted the dictatorial president hosni mubarak he's now serving

a life sentence but after thirty years in power toppling the system he built is proving to be an even harder time than talking the man everything is like could lapsing from at all just economy so this gave me the impression is that probably be one will not you know rise again they are already exhausted or too exhausted to go to the square and protest again but it's really impressive they went again and the op now protesting dalia has been involved with egypt's revolution from the beginning she works to monitor civil and political developments in the country or lack of them many egyptians are dismayed that little if anything has changed under the ruling supremum council of the armed forces or skaf in fact with either. skaf. is continuing mubarak's regime and offering only very minimal sessions to that evolution whenever he has to these

demonstrations are up today after the notorious court decision that not only spared mubarak's life but acquitted his sons and six former security officials protesters say the second insult is the heavily criticized presidential runoff election a straight choice between the old guard in the form of an ex mubarak man and the religiously conservative muslim brotherhood i don't think you support your politically stable in the next four years we are now in a surgical operations with the rich and with see things up i'll do more for me happy things but i think is a poor being most are born all successful others believe more time is needed even though it may be a bumpy ride people did not go to. squares and streets again to protest those two big punches in the face more than they think this is their last chance to

win begs that country but until then the revolutionaries plan to fine tune which brings us back to real. protestors here of describe their religious revolution to me rather like a train they determined not to have it the rails either by religious hardliners by the regime but they're equally desperate to stop it running out of steam lest egypt go off on the wrong track altogether tom watson artsy jeffress square cairo. now a look at some other stories making headlines around the world. president goodluck jonathan has visited the site of sunday's plane crash which killed at least one hundred fifty three people he's promised an inquiry after all i'm bored died of emergency crews fearing around forty lives may have been lost on the ground as well exact cause still isn't known but the pilot reported engine trouble planes the plane's two won't be in service it's nigeria's west air disaster almost twenty years. at least eleven farm workers were killed and thirteen injured in

a bus crash in north mexican state of chihuahua witnesses say the driver was way over the speed limit before the vehicle plunged into a ravine most of the survivors have been hospitalized with their conditions described as serious. credit ratings giant standard and poor's have predicted a one in three chance of greece leaving the eurozone after the country's general election later this month left wing series of party predicted to win the poll to cancel the country's bailout deal if elected comes after the inconclusive elections on may greece has been under strict terms to cut spending provoking mass protests public. well the strive to keep greece within the euro zone he said by many economists to increasingly resemble a farce in the next hour on the financial guru max keiser of heals what he believes is behind it and what's coming up. like a greek exit at worst means more money printing for the banks and they've already

priced that into their stocks and their bonuses what they're really afraid of is that a country finds its inner gonads and decides to become politically independent that's what they're fearful of a country standing up for itself they want iceland to be just contained they don't want greece to stand up for itself they don't want ireland to stand up for itself because then they would tell the bankers to stop it that's the real problem they threaten this financial terrorism which is false it's false these are false attacks it was a false attack in two thousand and eight it was a concocted covert cooked attack on nine eleven it's all false. they say a picture is worth a thousand words but in the art world it could also mean millions of dollars if it's the genuine article of course forgery is on the rise it's getting increasingly hard for buys in the auction houses alike to spot the fakes as artie's authorise

with explains some don't find out until it's too late. very important works of art go under the hammer every day in london's west end but how can i love as be sure of what they're buying according to scotland yard a staggering fifty percent of all sold is fact what we're looking at these days is a very considerable increase in faking of twentieth century art i've seen a number of provincial houses and. so fakes. a considerable scale and i think it's something that we will accept a lot of forgeries are also sold on action websites but it's not just internet bias he can be taken in by the forward just brush the latest auction house to come into the spotlight with christie's which is involved in a high court battle with russian tycoon victim back so he paid more than two and

a half million dollars for a painting he thought was by prominent russian artist bodies. and find out later that it appears to have been signed for several years after. the case will go on for nineteen days and according to experts will probably cost more than the painting itself which is one reason why more of these claims don't go to court but another buy of russian art when confronted with lemons made lemonade eager to see a cough discovered his art collection meant to fund his retirement was mostly forgeries now he's displaying the paintings as a warning to others. when we have money where ashamed to talk of it i'm trying to be the first who says don't be ashamed of showing us because we believe you who no one would doubt we move now the time has passed and we realize we made a mistake and it's important to publicize the mistake because the quantity of

russian figs is such that it. it's national. do you call for sharing each of his pictures alongside to take with the typical it's one attesting the painting is genuine and one proving it will watched some type thing even signed by the same person and his collection is just the tip of the iceberg it's going to be a lot more this could be quite high profile prosecutions in the u.k. and germany of so-called must a forgery. in the case of the field are still excellent fakes from hundreds of excellent fakes have been placed on the market and maybe that's just a very small part of it how croft's message is clear it doesn't matter whether you're buying off the internet or as a reputable auction house buyer beware. let's cross over to our business desk when marina is following all the market action

what's new this hour hi carol well this hour the russian markets are open and we can take a look at the latest figures and in fact they are extending monday's gains as we can see right now the r.t.s. is out in over one percent while the my sex is slowly heading towards one percent and the reason for that is first of all we have oil prices which are on the way up and that's always a great sign for the russian economy and in general there's a lot of optimism across the board if we take a look at asian markets will see that they are in positive territory as well in fact hong kong sales have rebounded from a four day losing streak and also we have and fasteners are more confident that officials will take action to resolve the financial crisis or at least ease concerns about the global economy now if we move on and second look at the e.u. last it was a tough trading session on monday the nasdaq did manage to recover from a four day losing streak i haven't sad that some of the u.s. blue chips did post losses and you can see that it was

currencies against the euro and the greenback there crude as i said is gaining for a second day which is great news for the russian economy and that's after reports we are in fact expecting the report later this week and analysts are saying that it will show that u.s. stockpiles are dropping for the first time in eleven weeks now in other news they see problems in the horizon for one of the oldest allies in the world and i'm talking about quantas which is australia's flag carrier and expects its profits to fall by as much as ninety percent that's amid the growing losses at its international operations and its highest ever fuel bill that shares dropped around eight some percent after this announcement. and all the dispute between the owners of seeing k.b. gets and needs swiss this time of the minority shareholders all of the company are demanding b.p. pay them around fourteen billion dollars in compensation and that's all over b.p.'s failed to deal with that now they say seeing b.p.

suffered losses as it was invited in. the exploration project which was later on the blog by the russian co-owners of the venture earlier on the chords declined similar lawsuits saying there were unfounded and the renewal of the claim of course followed news of a possible sale of b.p.'s fifty percent stake in seeing. the construction of russia's second subsidy gas flowing to europe is facing and the blow this time one of the projects members paul garia is thinking of pulling out that the country says it could quit the south stream project claiming their proposed transit fees and operating ratio are on acceptable garia could break the timeline of the project if it doesn't sign the necessary documents by the middle of november however analysts say the project could still be fulfilled without bulgaria if it goes through the territory of its neighbor of romania which has already shown interest in the project
