america closes the net around. to the f.b.i. now harassing his contacts in an apparent attempt to gather dirt on the world's most famous whistleblower. easton union. looking for some of china's economic fortune cookies moscow and beijing continue to be on the same page when it comes to world politics. and egypt's muslim brotherhood sides with roots for a million man protest calling for mubarak's execution opinion also sweep aside their presidential election rival before anyone even votes.

international news and comment twenty four hours a day this is r.t. i'm kerry johnston well the latest installment of julian assange show is premiering today here in r.t. with the f.b.i. now apparently among the ranks of loyal viewers here agency is said to have been given the green light to launch a surveillance mission of the prominent whistleblower and everyone in contact with him a number of his guests have been stopped and interrogated by agents with one even offered the chance to turn f.b.i. informant what is going to check out has more on the story now. u.s. officials say there is no indictment against julian a sausage but apparently the u.s. is going after him after all in their quest for evidence they might hear watching the sunday shows here on our t.v. or else how would several of the show's guests end up interrogated by u.s. officials about the we keep leaks founder in this week's episode features one of them that's jeremy zimmerman an internet freedom advocate who's based in friends at

the airport traveling from the united states to friends he will stop by self identified 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 arsalan where they talked cyber security and freedom in the face of ever expanding government surveillance here's a bit of it don't miss the whole thing here on r.t. running all day no doubt some sites technology enables those civilians of every communication then there is to do the other side of that coin is what we do with it we could admit that for which you go to tactical one there are some indeed some legitimate use investigators investigating them but goes nowhere but goes 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 these judicial supervision where to go to

the control that the citizens can have over the use of those technologies and this is a policy issue so there was jeremy and a bit earlier aaron at 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 the 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's 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 court has also raised mr songes extradition to sweden his lawyers have

less than two weeks to contest that decision in sweden he's facing quite sane allegations of sexual assault which reportedly had to do with consensual but unprotected sex but his supporters are saying it's not a 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 what's latest episode of today it's all just show here on r.t. starting from my eleven thirty g.m.t. . well free from prejudice and stereotypes that's how president putin has defined russia's ties with china as he looks east for the next three days and they pose all seeing eye to wine major international disputes such as the syrian conflict and show concern of u.s. expansion in the asia pacific region and 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 a lot of important became the president certainly going to have some certain details about its protocol because as we know any president of any country can perform only one state visit to any country during his captaincy certainly 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 the show that the foreign policy of russia with these new terror will not change now first went to europe now if you go through china basically the relations between moscow and beijing have been very strong over the past several decades the trade turnover has been reaching 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 certainly this this visit will be interesting with lots of on its agenda to talk about what this visit could mean for the ties we're joined live here in beijing by mr 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 that there are. great country this. address this is a very hot he said that hard. differences a big russia china and the subways and that are up in countries from china and the russian perspective the key solution lysine. the temptation and that's left out of their lies in whether or not we saw the poverty. existing government that is now the key so i think russia trying its position on syria is a more responsible and designed to prominent on the final solution to the sea

represents thank you so much this was mr yang see you from the chinese central international studies now certainly will be following this visit all the days as it is here and we'll be bringing all the latest details to our viewers every time we get new information. but r.t. spoke to arvind subramanian from the peterson institute for international economics he thinks china has all that's needed to out run the u.s. economy but here's a preview of what's coming up few next hour. at the moment china's g.d.p. for example is smaller than that of the united states that's true 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 there are. three china is a net creditor to the world it finances the u.s. and the u.s. is a debtor that's today and over the next ten fifteen years all these numbers are going

to go all in china's favor so the china is going to become an even bigger economy than 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 there is a demand for the statement from the fighters saying they're no longer committed to the international truce plan proposed by special envoy kofi annan the rebels claim dozens of government soldiers were killed in clashes in attacks on security checkpoints at the last few days of the violence comes amid growing voices from the u.s. and its allies armed action it follows reports of plans to set up refugee camps and all that serious. by the military that's something which will only bring more bloodshed on into middle east blogger. i think it will actually increase the likelihood of revenge killings kind of sectarian tension along mixed areas where.

revenge operations will start to happen and it will suck more and more people in i think syria now it is not that tipping point where the conflict can be pulled back from a. sectarian civil war to kind of some form of 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. and that's still to come in just a few minutes time here on r.t. paying the price for fakes the bombs and auction houses who found themselves seriously out of pocket also in egypt by copycats on the rise in fortress. the goals of. the lucky.

few that speak. to. her. culture where. the roof to bomb is slowly and good the way the luck just see the mountain and meet her and her. home out of mind of a little. so. her. to. her.

ranking u.s. official state hillary clinton to the south caucasus but then a lot of advisory firm country risk solutions for things and there is less concerned with security and well with the shift in power in the region that in our secretary of state clinton is looking to it she 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 it 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 the 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 but hesitate to i log on to our website at r.t. dot com with all the latest news not dates there as well as any stories you may have missed let's take a look at some what's there if you right now today no promises land for migrants and israeli governments. and go away this is to africa minister or important deportation or human rights groups describe the expulsion as immoral. plus also online post revolution libya see shooting in balance once again militia group uses

a life sentence but after thirty years in power toppling the system he built is proving to be an even harder task than toppling the man everything is like could lapsing from at all and us economy so this gave me the impression that probably be one will not you know rise again as they are already exhausted or too exhausted to go to the square and protest again but it's really impressive they went again and they are 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 supremes council of the armed forces or skaf in fact we see that. care. is continuing mubarak's regime and offering only very minimal court 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 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 injured or here politically if there were in the next four years we are now in a surgical operations will be watching with some food. for me. things but i think that most are born. 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 of them they think this is their last chance to win beggs their country but until then the revolutionaries plan to fight on which

brings us back to talk real. protestors here of describe their religious revolution to me rather like a train but 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 r.t. to africa square cairo. now a look at some other stories making headlines around the world pakistan has successfully tested a cruise missile designed to deliver both nuclear and conventional warheads into the country's own forces the technology is capable of hitting targets seven hundred kilometers away this invisible to radar. series of tests began in april in advance mystic missile was launched. nigeria's president goodluck jonathan has visited the site of sunday's plane crash which killed at least fifty three people he's promised

artie's or smith 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 our love is be sure of what they're buying according to scotland yard a staggering fifty percent of all art sold is fake 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 auction houses and and of those. so fakes. are considerable scale and i think it's something that we we all accept a lot of forgeries are also sold on websites but it's not just internet buyers who can be taken in by the food 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 backs oberg he paid more than two

and a half million dollars for a painting he thought was by prominent russian artist buddies cause still a death only to find out later that it appears to have been signed for several years after death 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 buyer 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 most of us. when we're gone dark of our money where ashamed to talk of it i'm going to be the first who says don't be ashamed of showing us because we believe you're who no one would doubt we have moved 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 with such. the british national. sharing each of his pictures along with. one attempting the painting is genuine and one proving it sometimes even signed by the thing person and his collection is just the tip of the iceberg that's going to be a lot more. prosecutions in the u.k. . called must. be repealed is the excellent fakes from hundreds of excellent fakes have been placed on the market maybe that's just a very small bit how it's method is clear it doesn't matter whether you're buying off the internet or a reputable auction house. by that time for some business. thanks carol well the optimism here is now dying down

for good that's for sure if we take a look at the international markets we will see that the thinkers that it's all turn in a sea of red but there is there is a reason for that and that's because we've got negative reports when it comes to the euro zone basically private sector activity across the seventeen nation euro zone as i said has contracted at its fastest pace in three years for the month of may and of the result as you can see there. over three quarters of a sudden when it comes to the footsie it's close enough because brits are celebrating their jubilee and it was close on monday and today but of will resume back on the wednesday let's move on and take a look at russia markets of course are always attracting what's happening overseas and there's some that's the incidence of territory as well. about a quarter of a percent and what we have here factor in the markets is also a decline in crude prices which are mentioned in a second but first let's take

a look at currencies the euro is still losing the against the dollar as you can see . when it comes to the ruble it's again against both major currencies a ruble and the greenback and crude as i was mentioning for the past couple of hours was a gaining and that was amid reports that we were going to see the u.s. stockpiles decline for the first time in the eleven weeks but now as you can see prices are heading south once again never a good thing for energy dependent economies and the reason for that is because everything that's happening in the euro zone especially this new overboard analysts expected to curb demand for energy and that's why we see prices heading south now in other news there are problems on the horizon for one of the oldest ally in the world. australia's fly carrier expects its profits to fall by as much as ninety percent and that some of the growing losses at its international operations and it's our highest ever fuel bill its shares dropped around eight percent after this

announcement. core market grew forty percent last year making it the seventh biggest in the world that's according to the latest research by after analytics not the us and japan in that order claim the top spots in the list. and at the speed between the co-owners of. getting more heat and that's because the minority shareholders of the company are now demanding b.p. pay them a forty billion dollars in compensation that is over the failed deal b.p. had over the arctic shelf with rosneft and what they're saying is that suffered losses as it was invited into the exploration project which was later on blogs by the russian co-owners of the venture earlier on the courts rejected similar lawsuits saying there were on founded and the renewal of this claim followed news of a possible sale of b.p.'s a fifty percent stake in. the construction of russia's second subsidy

gas lindsay europe is now facing. new difficulties yet again this time one of the project's members garia is considering pulling out of the project the country says it could quit the south stream project claiming the proposed transit fees and operating ratio are on except the ball could break this harmony of the project if it doesn't saw in the necessary documents by the middle of november but analysts say the project could still be fulfilled even without bulgaria if they go through the territory of its neighbor romania and the country has shown its interest in the project a long time ago. and that's how the business of it looks our back to terry ok i was waiting here for the arena thanks again. well stay with the full recap of the top stories in just a few minutes. i

had a family i lived in a failing nice community it wasn't rich it was an upscale it was just like you know

archie bunker society ok then they started showing up what happened was my company decided i could get cheap labor and they got rid of us factual truth is their long rows in the eaglets love legally we have to get up every morning we have to go to work and you know we have to pay our bills only have to do it and i'm going to dance just the american dream and if you want the american dream you have to go by the last like figure is here's one of the major trails in the united states and. i watch and they run run down my property and something about this noise. was a little gap between the crack mortars from coming to the wire is protecting the country. i'm the kind of guy who doesn't mindedness pay and sturdy so i come out here you know we're all immigrants as well know that we all share some sorrow. with the end of the boer war and the going away of the soviet union many people

thought that nuclear weapons disappeared. the risk is not zero that something might be going off by mistake especially a lot of nuclear weapons on hair trigger alert. focus of the difference to use it as a threat all as an actual weapon you know if you keep spending a trillion dollars a year on weapons of venture you're going to blow everybody up you you know people are dying from these weapons but until we actually see it people don't wake up to get nuclear weapons or a bill. that represents all the firepower of the second world war and this second sound is the equivalent firepower of the world's nuclear arsenal today. the.
